Chapter 25-Entering Sikong Manor, Young Cao Pi! (New book, evaluation ticket!)
Night fell, and the lights were lit.
Every household in the bustling Xudu City lit up their lights.
In Sikong Manor, Cao Cao was sitting on the main seat.
Lady Ding sat not far from Cao Cao, while Cao Xuan sat beside her with his back straight and his eyes looking forward.
In the hall, a family banquet was in progress.
Other than Cao Cao and Madam Ding, there were several other wives of Cao Cao.
Among them were Madam Bian, Madam Huan, Madam Qin, Madam Yin, and many other madams who had brought their children.
Beside Lady Bian sat three youths, all of whom looked to be eight or nine years old.
Madam Huan was carrying the two-year-old Cao Chong.
Cao Cao sat on the main seat.
"I have something to announce today."
Cao Cao looked at Cao Xuan and said,""From today onwards, Xuan 'er is our family. From now on, Xuan' er will live in Sikong's residence.”
Cao Xuan stood up and bowed to the wives of Cao Cao.
"Cao Xuan greets the ladies." Cao Xuan cupped his hands and bowed.
Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi, who were sitting beside Lady Bian, looked at Cao Xuan curiously.
In this Sikong Residence, other than the three brothers, there were almost no peers.
Previously, Cao Ang was the eldest brother and was much older than Cao Pi and the others.
Cao Pi and the others had always been little brothers in Cao Ang's eyes.
All interactions were limited to brothers.
Moreover, Cao Ang often went out to battle with Cao Cao, so he was rarely at home.
It was only when Cao Pi was ten years old and could follow the army that they had more interactions.
During the battle of Wan City, Cao Pi was also present. It was just that he was lucky enough to escape from the camp and survive.
In order to save Cao Cao, Cao Ang gave up his warhorse and died tragically.
Before Cao Cao could say anything, Madam Ding held Cao Xuan's hand.
"Xuan 'er is like my grandson. If anyone dares to bully Xuan' er in this residence, they will be going against me.”
Madam Ding's sharp gaze swept across the area below.
Especially when he looked at Madam Bian and Madam Huan, his gaze was extremely sharp.
The dignity of the First Madam was undoubtedly displayed.
At this moment, only Madam Huan and Ying 'er knew Cao Xuan's identity.
The two of them only listened to Madam Ding's words in one ear and ignored them in the other.
An adopted son, even if he has your love, how can he be stronger than Cao Cao's son?
In addition, Madam Huan and Lai Ying 'er were often reprimanded by Madam Ding, so their relationship was not harmonious. Therefore, they did not take Madam Ding's words to heart.
As for Lady Bian.
Madam Bian had a gentle and gentle personality, so when Madam Ding spoke, Madam Bian nodded gently.
Daren had their own thoughts.
Children had their own thoughts.
Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi looked curiously at Cao Xuan, who was about the same age as them.
After more than half a year of training by Xu Chu, Cao Xuan was a completely different person from half a year ago.
Waving his saber three thousand times a day and chopping branches five hundred times a day had made Cao Xuan's body very strong.
Although he was young, he had an extremely sharp aura when he stood there.
Cao Pi and his brothers looked at Cao Xuan curiously.
Cao Xuan was also sizing up Cao Pi, the future founding emperor of Great Wei.
Cao's family has been a hero for three generations.
Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Rui.
When these three people were in power, they had suppressed the Sima Clan to the death.
Although they were not as good as each other, they could still be considered wise rulers.
Cao Xuan nodded slightly at Cao Pi as a form of greeting.
"Alright, alright. We're all family. What's there to bully? Sit down and eat.”Cao Cao waved his hand and ordered the dishes to be served.
The banquet at Sikong Manor was naturally not bad.
Cao Xuan sat beside Madam Ding. Her bowl was filled with Madam Ding's dishes, and it was very high.
"Xuan 'er, this is freshly slaughtered venison. Try it.”
Madam Ding did not eat much throughout the banquet and kept helping Cao Xuan with food.
Halfway through the family banquet, Madam Huan stood up with Cao Chong in her arms.
"When Sikong wasn't in the residence, Chong-er said that he missed Father every day. This concubine said that as long as Chong-er studied the Book of Songs every day and learned three poems, Sikong would return to see Chong-er.”
"It just so happens that Chong-er has learned three poems today, and Sikong has returned to the residence.”
"Chong-er misses his father, and this concubine is also very touched. Why don't you let Chong-er recite three poems?”Madam Huan was dressed in a luxurious long dress and was carrying little Cao Chong in her arms.
Cao Cao, who was sitting on the main seat, laughed loudly.
"Alright, my Chong-er is only two years old, but he can already recite the Book of Songs. Chong-er, come and let your father listen.”Cao Cao said with a smile.
Cao Xuan put down the chopsticks in her hand and watched the scene in front of her.
There was no doubt that Madam Huan was using Xiao Haizi to win her favor. Cao Xuan had seen many of the plots in the Grand Mansion in her previous life.
However, this was the first time he had seen the real thing.
Madam Ding did not think much of it and continued to pick up food for Cao Xuan.
"Xuan 'er, eat more. You're still growing, and you're practicing martial arts with Xu Chu. You should nourish your body.”Madam Ding ignored Madam Huan's words and said to Cao Xuan.
Cao Xuan smiled and nodded.
Madam Huan glanced in Madam Ding's direction and did not dare to say anything.
Hence, he placed Little Cao Chong on the ground.
The two-year-old Cao Chong imitated Cao Cao and bowed.
Then, he began to recite the Book of Songs.
"To the south, there is a tree, which is covered with Ge. Happiness is only for the gentleman, and happiness is to comfort him.
To the south there is a kind of wood, which is abandoned by Ge. Happiness is only for the gentleman, and happiness is for him.
In the south there is a tree, surrounded by a vine."
Little Cao Chong was only two years old, and his words were not clear enough, but his big black eyes were really cute.
As he recited the Book of Songs, he shook his head.
Cao Xuan wanted to laugh.
After he finished reciting the Book of Songs, Cao Cao was already laughing out loud.
"Good, good, good. Chong-er has such talent at such a young age and will definitely become a great talent in the future. Father is very gratified.”
