Chapter 23-Cao Xuan Descends the Mountain, The Rumors of Sikong Manor! (New book, evaluation ticket!)
Three days later.
Xudu, Sikong Manor.
Ever since Cao Cao brought Cao Xuan back to the Sikong Manor three days ago, Madam Ding's condition had improved a lot.
Madam Ding had been in poor health these few days because she missed Cao Ang.
However, when she heard that Cao Xuan was going down the mountain to go home, Madam Ding miraculously recovered.
Therefore, three days ago, he started to clean up Cao Xuan's courtyard and mansion.
Madam Ding had tidied up a courtyard of similar size next to her own courtyard.
All the old furniture and appliances were replaced.
They bought the best set.
He also arranged for the servants.
Even the Sikong Residence had been cleaned thoroughly.
At this moment, a beautiful woman was standing not far from the courtyard that Lady Ding had prepared for Cao Xuan.
The beautiful woman wore a peach blossom dress and was extremely beautiful. She was carrying a young son in her arms.
The youngest son looked to be one or two years old. His skin was fair and clean, and his pair of big black eyes were extremely lively.
She was holding a wooden windmill in her hand. It was very cute.
This woman was called Madam Huan, and the person in her arms was none other than Madam Huan and Cao Cao's son, Cao Chong.
Mrs. Huan was beautiful and had a son, Cao Chong.
Cao Chong had been very intelligent since he was young. He could speak at the age of one. Now that he was two and a half years old, he spoke like a little adult.
Cao Cao doted on Cao Chong the most.
The mother was noble because of her son, and her mother was loved by Cao Cao, so Lady Huan's status in Sikong Manor was second only to Lady Ding.
Apart from Madam Huan, Cao Chong, and a few maids, there was another woman standing beside her.
The woman looked no worse than Madam Huan.
Dressed in a long white dress, she was tall and slender.
Her pair of jade-like arms were like the neck of a swan.
Her ten fingers were like jade, fair and bony.
The woman's name was Lai Ying 'er. She was originally a famous courtesan in Luoyang, the eastern capital, but was later taken in by Cao Cao.
Although she did not have any children, she was very beautiful and could sing and dance. She was very loved by Cao Cao.
"Eldest Furen has never tidied up the rear residence so diligently. Is Si Kong going to take a concubine again?”Ying 'er, who was standing beside Madam Huan, said with a smile.
Madam Huan hugged Cao Chong and felt upset.
Madam Huan had long taken a fancy to this courtyard and had asked Cao Cao for it more than once.
However, because it was too close to Madam Ding's courtyard, Cao Cao did not agree.
"Maybe it's not taking concubines." Madam Huan said, but it sounded more like she was comforting herself.
Ying 'er, who used to be a dancer, chuckled."Sister, this is the back house. Could it be that it's prepared for guests?”
"Other than Si Kong's children, only the women in the back residence can live here.”
"Sister, are you confused?" Lai Yan 'er smiled and said,"Sister, don't deceive yourself."”
"When has Eldest Furen ever been so attentive? She has never liked us concubines. For her to work so hard to tidy up the courtyard this time, if you ask me, she might be a princess or a viscountess.”
"I thought First Madam had always been so arrogant.”
Ying 'er's words were filled with jealousy and hostility.
This had to be said from Madam Ding.
Madam Ding had a strong personality, but Cao Cao was a lecherous man.
It was fine if he was lustful, but Cao Cao either liked singers and dancers or liked other people's wives.
Madam Huan and Ying 'er were Bian Rang's widow and a famous courtesan from Luoyang, the eastern capital.
In addition, there was also Madam Bian.
In this residence, the three of them were the least favored by Ding Furen.
But Madam Ding was still the Eldest Madam, the main wife.
Madam Bian and Madam Huan were still fine. Both of them had sons.
But Ying 'er had nothing.
Ying 'er's provocations made Madam Huan feel uncomfortable.
Madam Huan was about to say something.
Two maids walked over from the side.
It was from the courtyard where Cao Xuan was going to stay.
Ying 'er called out to the two maids.
"You two, come here."
Ying 'er waved her hand and stopped the two maids.
The two maids came forward and bowed to Madam Huan and Ying 'er.
"My two wives." The maidservant came over to take Madam and Ying 'er and bowed.
Ying 'er pointed at the courtyard at the side and said,"First Madam has already tidied up this courtyard early in the morning. Which Madam is she preparing to move in?”
When the two maids heard Ying 'er's words, they looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Replying to Furen, we do not know.”
"You don't know?" Ying 'er chuckled.”
"The Sikong Residence was cleaned up three days ago. As the First Madam's subordinates, how could you not know?”
"I don't have any ill intentions. It's just that there's a noble coming, so as the Eldest Madam's younger sister, we naturally have to be prepared, don't you think so?”Ying 'er said.
In the end, she was still a prostitute. Compared to Madam Huan, Ying 'er spoke more tactfully and also beat around the bush.
As expected, when the two maids heard what Ying 'er said, they remembered that the First Madam had never said that she wanted to keep it a secret. They also did not want to offend Sikong Sihuan's Lai Ying' er, so they revealed a little.
"Replying to Furen, this servant heard that a young master wants to stay in this courtyard.”
"First Madam calls Qi Xuan 'er." The maid replied.
Hmm?
Madam Huan and Ying 'er were both stunned.
A young master?
This was something the two women had never expected.
Not concubines?
But a young master?
Where did this young master come from?
Just as Madam Huan and Ying 'er were feeling puzzled.
A maid of Madam Ding walked out from the courtyard.
"What are the two of you doing? Young Master is about to arrive, and Madam asked us to go and welcome him.”Madam Ding's handmaiden greeted the two handmaidens.
Madam Huan and Ying 'er looked at each other and decided to go take a look together.
