Chapter 267 Aunt and Nephew Marry Together
After Cao Yue had finished eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, the team moved forward again.
This time when she left, Cao Jinhua only took the two of them's underwear, and left the rest of the things to the children in the courtyard, allowing them to divide them up.
The biggest advantage of traveling in simple attire is that you can travel fast, so the four Cao Jinhuas only hired four guards. She rode a horse and Cao Yue lay in the carriage. In just two days, they were already more than 70 kilometers away from Xingzhou.
If they rode at full speed, they could reach the capital in just ten days.
"Cao Jinhua! I'm talking to you! Are you deaf?" Cao Yue shouted at Cao Jinhua who was riding a horse in front.
The coachman couldn't help but shudder. Everyone made a living in Yun County, so they naturally knew the identities of these two seemingly weak women.
Cao Jinhua reined in her horse and turned to look at Cao Yue, signaling the coachman to switch with her.
"Don't be disrespectful. I'm your aunt." Cao Jinhua's tone and expression didn't change at all. She calmly whipped the horse's butt.
Cao Yue grabbed her clothes from behind and said, "I said I won't get married! I won't go back! I don't like that unlucky cripple!"
"If that happens, there will definitely be a rift between Sister Qiao and Big Brother. Sister Qiao is moving forward so aggressively now. If she runs out of money, she will collapse immediately." Cao Jinhua spoke calmly and pointed out the disadvantages: "Big Brother can tolerate us to this age, which is not easy."
"We have learned new knowledge, but my brother and sister-in-law and everyone else in the world have not learned it, so isn't it normal for you to be a pioneer in the cause you love? Isn't this the expected result after accepting such a concept?
What are you angry about?
My eldest brother and his wife must have been criticized countless times by people in the clan over the years, right?
Don’t you feel sorry for your parents?”
Cao Yue was speechless. She loosened her hand that was grabbing Cao Jinhua's clothes and said, "You think very clearly."
I don’t know whether it was sarcasm or compliment, but Cao Yue didn’t mention going back to Xingzhou. She just slumped in the carriage.
"Otherwise, we live here, not in the God Realm that Sister Qiao mentioned. Girls should get married and have children when they reach the age of marriage. Girls should stay at home to take care of their husbands and children. This is our life.
So, our bodies are in this world, and our souls yearn for the divine world. "Cao Yue twitched the corners of her mouth slightly.
"I am very pleased to see that you are tactful enough to go back and get married and not cause trouble to everyone. I will give you some advice for reference when we take a break later." Cao Jinhua raised the whip again.
They were fast enough to reach the post station before it got completely dark.
Cao Yue had difficulty walking, so her sword had to be carried to the inn by several other people.
"Tell me, what advice do you want to give me?"
Cao Jinhua poured herself a glass of water, rested for a while, and when she felt her buttocks had recovered, she hooked her finger at Cao Yue.
Cao Yue reluctantly walked over and sat beside the bed, motioning Cao Jinhua to speak.
After a while of whispering, Cao Yue looked at her aunt with wide eyes. It might be because this aunt was too much of a bookworm in recent years. She never expected that this person's opinions were so unconventional, so well-reasoned, and she said one thing and did another!
It’s just that!
Is her brain rusty? Why didn't she think of such a simple and clear idea! How did she let this nerd come up with it for her?
"You're not leaving?"
"It depends. If the husband my eldest brother finds for me is what I want, then I'll stay. If I really can't stand him, it's not too late for me to leave." Cao Jinhua's tone remained calm.
"Okay then, you can persuade my parents and don't let them get sick from anger." Cao Yue raised her lips, "I'll figure out how to handle the process myself, you go back to your room."
"To save money, let's live in one room." Cao Jinhua said as she stood up and took off her coat and hung it up. Then she said, "Actually, I didn't give you such a strong drug. After you wake up, your strength should recover slowly. Don't pretend."

Qiao Shinian looked at the letter in her hand. It had only been over a month since Cao Yue and Cao Jinhua left, but she had already received an express wedding invitation from the capital.
Wen Jiu looked at Qiao Shinian: "Sister, what kind of gift do you want?"
Qiao Shinian glanced at Wen Jiu and closed the wedding invitation: "Let me think about it."
"Don't think too much. They are your loyal believers. So they sacrificed their marriage for everyone's better tomorrow. Also, regarding the farewell, I agree with Cao Jinhua's approach. The more you say goodbye, the more reluctant you will be.
They are going back to devote the rest of their lives there, not to go back for vacation. If they don't want to go back and get married after suing for a long time, there will inevitably be a rift between you and the two brothers of the Cao family, especially Cao Jing's wife. That woman is not an easy person to deal with.
My daughter has been with you, and at the age of 21, she has become an old maid. She is ashamed, and I don’t know how many gossipy women have been behind her back. She is so resentful that she probably wants you dead.”
"Twenty-one is already an old girl here." Qiao Shinian sighed softly.
Wen Jiu immediately slapped his mouth: "Sister, that's not what I meant."
"It's a great gift." Qiao Shinian looked at Wen Jiu who was very close to him and pushed him: "Speak louder, I can hear you. You don't have to get so close."

"Hey, Mr. Ji, what a coincidence you meet me today." Cao Yue met Ji Lanzhou at the door of Wangxinzhai who was also preparing to go in to buy some cakes.
Ji Lanzhou nodded slightly at her: "Miss Cao, I heard that you will be getting married in a few days."
"Yeah, what's the matter, are you making fun of me?" Cao Yue's face immediately fell when she said this, "Even if you and I meet by chance, I won't tell you the news about Sister Shi Nian, so give up."
"I don't mean to be funny, just sincere congratulations." Ji Lanzhou said.
"Come on, let's talk over there." Cao Yue waved her hand, motioning Ji Lanzhou to go to the box next to her and talk with her.
Ji Lanzhou followed.
"Heh! Ji Lanzhou, don't think I don't know you're making fun of me. We've worked together for a while. I tell you, Sister Shinian is not likely to be as kind as I am to like you, not to mention that Wen Jiu is openly showing his love to Sister Shinian.
You don't have any chance at all, so stop thinking about it and get married soon!
You are not a child anymore. Besides, although you are not married, you have two concubines in your house. Don't think I don't know.
Sister Shi Nian will not like a man who is not chaste!"
Seeing Cao Yue threatening him and saying irritating things, Ji Lanzhou said inexplicably, "I don't like you at all either. Besides, you're getting married. Give up."
"Haha, what do you mean by a taciturn and cold-faced young man? Now you've given yourself away." Cao Yue rolled her eyes at him. "I still like you now, but when I meet someone who is prettier and has better kung fu than you, I'll immediately switch my affections to someone else."
"Your future husband is so pitiful." Ji Lanzhou turned around and was about to leave. He felt that Cao Yue was unreasonable.
Cao Yue followed behind him and said coldly: "That cripple deserves it!"
"I happen to be on duty on your wedding day and cannot go in person, so I'll send the gift in advance." Ji Lanzhou said to Cao Yue beside him.
Cao Yue was about to complain when she saw Cao Baoshan coming towards her in a wheelchair not far away. She grabbed Ji Lanzhou's sword and said, "Oh, I see you like this sword very much. I guess this is a farewell gift from Sister Shi Nian."
Ji Lanzhou looked at Cao Yue in confusion: "What's the matter?"
"Your sword is missing a tassel! I have a tassel here, you can use it."
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Cao. Forget it." Cao Yue stood on tiptoe and whispered in his ear, "This is made by Sister Shi Nian herself. If you agree to help me, I will give you the tassel as a reward. How about it?"
Ji Lanzhou glanced at Cao Baoshan who was about to approach, and asked in a low voice: "Help you to anger your future husband?"
"That's about right, so just tell me whether you can help or not?"
Just as Ji Lanzhou was about to say no, he saw Cao Yue untied her purse and took off the only tassel on it.
It was a very beautiful blue and purple rope with a hint of pink, a style he had never seen before. There was also a transparent glass ball on it, but the woven tassels were a little crooked and not neat.
"Okay, I promise you." Ji Lanzhou took the tassel and carefully put it on the hilt of the sword.
"Tsk tsk, a lovesick man, so easy to control." Cao Yue laughed.
"Xiaoyue, have you bought the rose cake?" Cao Baoshan nodded slightly to Ji Lanzhou as a greeting.
The smile on Cao Yue's face immediately turned into disgust, and finally she rolled her eyes: "I said, I agreed to marry you, and I won't run away from the marriage, why are you all staring at me so closely?"
"You guys chat, I have something else to do." Ji Lanzhou glanced at Cao Baoshan, then at Cao Yue, then turned and left.
Seeing Ji Lanzhou leave, Cao Baoshan still had a smile on his face: "Do you still want to eat? I'll go buy some."
"I'm not eating anymore. I feel sick." Cao Yue turned and was about to leave. Then, as if she had thought of something, she stopped and walked behind Cao Baoshan for the first time ever, waved away the servant and pushed him back.
"What's wrong? Xiaoyue, do you have anything to say to me?" Cao Baoshan was surprised by Cao Yue's behavior.
Cao Yue remained silent until she pushed him into the mansion hung with red silk and walked to his bedroom.
"Oh, the decoration is nice. This is the new room. I even changed to a big bed that I like." Cao Yue looked around, then pulled a stool and sat in front of Cao Baoshan, smiling and asked, "Do you want to know why I stayed and married you?"
"I already know." Cao Baoshan responded with a smile, his eyes filled with love as he looked at Cao Yue.
Cao Yue couldn't control her expression and couldn't help but let out a "tsk".
"Well, let's make a deal. I'll marry properly and become your wife. I'll try to get to know you again and like you. But there's a condition."
"Okay." Cao Baoshan agreed directly: "I will agree to whatever conditions Xiaoyue proposes, even if it costs me my life now."
"Okay, stop. I'm not as shameless as you." Cao Yue stretched out her hand.
Cao Baoshan looked at Cao Yue lovingly, as if he could never look enough.
"Write me a written agreement now, promising me that after we get married, you will spare no effort to help Sister Shi Nian until the day you die. Also swear that if you break this oath, all your future women and children will die. Even if you survive by chance, you will betray your family and do something heinous that will bring disgrace to the family."
Cao Yue looked at Cao Baoshan with cold eyes devoid of emotion.

February 13th is a good day, and the outer city of Beijing is bustling with activity.
The head of the Cao family, a wealthy merchant family in Beijing, married his daughter and his younger sister, and both of their weddings were on the same day.
The daughter married a wealthy foreign businessman with the same surname of Cao, and the younger sister married a fifth-rank official who was over 35 years old and married again. The official had two legitimate sons and one legitimate daughter. The official was incorruptible and used all his salary on household expenses and buying books.
People talked a lot about the excitement of this day, not only because the aunt and niece got married on the same day, but also because of their ages.
