Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

Page 748

Cao Cao was overjoyed when he got the battle report!

Bringing the lackeys Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Xi Zhicai, and Xu Chu went straight to Xia Houzhe's mansion.

"My dear brother! Good news, good news! Zhang Lu has surrendered!"

"He said... as long as I keep his Five Dou Mi God Cult, he is willing to hand over Hanzhong!"

Before Cao Cao entered the door, the excited voice came in.

"Damn! Be quiet and stop arguing about bad things!"

Xia Houzhe cursed secretly.

The door opened, and Xia Houzhe was not lying in the Shenxu Pavilion as usual.

Instead, he walked anxiously at the door of the room, even a group of girls including Lu Lingqi and Zhen Mi were waiting.

One by one held towels, wraps, and sugar water in their hands.

The woman's screams kept coming from the room, and Cao Cao, an old Jianghu, knew what was going on as soon as he heard it.

"My Qing'er is going to give birth? Why is it a few days earlier?"

Cao Cao held the battle report in his hand and blinked.

Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes: "You ask me how do I know? I'm not a tenant in my stomach!"

"People want to check out early, what can I do?"

The corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched, thinking that Xia Houzhe's metaphor was very appropriate!

Isn't this the tenant checking out?

"Then let's say... today is double happiness, isn't it, triple happiness?"

Cao Cao rubbed his hands, he was in a good mood!

"Congratulations! Congratulations, Lord, for becoming a grandfather, and congratulations for Yuanyi becoming a father!"

Xun Yu and the others also had flattering smiles on their faces. As long as the two big shareholders are happy, they will benefit from this group of little fellows.

Maybe... Cao Qing gave birth to a beautiful daughter, maybe Xia Houzhe, the richest man, would reward them with tens of thousands of gold when he was in a good mood.

Isn't that a beautiful picture?They just want to say one thing... happiness comes too suddenly!

Xia Houzhe was slightly taken aback: "Three joys come to the door? Which three joys? Isn't it just about Qing'er giving birth to a baby?"

Cao Cao grinned, and lifted up the battle reports in his left and right hands, with a smug look on his face.

"It should be said that there are four joys coming to the door, and Zhang Lu's surrender is one of them!"

"I sent [-] additional troops to Xu Rong, Zhang Yang, Liu Bao, and Cheng Yu, Lu Su, Jia Xu, Ju Shou, Tai Shici, and Zhang Fei. Li Que and Guo Si only lasted for seven days, and then they I bowed my head!"

"Sizhou is now in my hands. This is Erxi! In addition to Qing'er's birth, and the plaque of your prime minister's mansion is ready, isn't it Sixi?"

Hearing this, Xia Houzhe took a deep breath from the corner of his mouth, and mourned for Li Que and Guo Si for half a second.

"With this lineup, it's a great honor for them to last for seven days."

"Then look... such a good day, shouldn't you reward tens of millions of gold, so that everyone can enjoy themselves?"

Cao Cao rubbed his hands excitedly.

This statement was wildly approved by Xun Yu and others.

"My lord is right! Yuanyi, everyone, brothers, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is mine! Give me money!"

Xia Houzhe glanced at them indifferently, and snorted coldly, not intending to pay at all.

Seeing this situation, everyone felt that something bad was pressing on them.

"My baby was born today, you uncles, uncles, grandpas, etc... shouldn't you have some red envelopes?"

Chapter 850 The child was born, a girl

"Red envelopes? What red envelopes! My son Cao Chong and daughter Cao Jie were born, and your uncle didn't give any money!"

Cao Cao looked sideways at Xia Houzhe, and refused to pay for anything.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia immediately nodded in agreement.

"That's right! There is a way...reciprocity is reciprocal, Yuan Yi, it's not us who are talking about you! This is because you are being unkind!"

"My lord is our role model. If he doesn't give it to us, he can't give it to us. Otherwise, it will appear that the lord is stingy!"

Several people grinned cheaply.

As an official, you have to pay attention to human relations and sophistication. How can a courtier let the lord lose face?

Seeing how shameless they were, Xia Houzhe rolled his eyes.

"No, no, the reason why I don't give red envelopes is because I'm the wife Cao's son-in-law... How can a son-in-law give a red envelope to his father-in-law?"

"Don't make excuses, give the red envelope!"

Cao Cao was startled and yelled that he made a mistake!

I actually forgot this?

But how can he give money, as Wei Gong... If he gives too little red envelopes to his descendants, wouldn't he be ridiculed by others?

The dog around him will definitely publicize it tomorrow, and his name will spread throughout the big men!

You know, the title of Wife Cao...is passed on by Gou, and he doesn't want to repeat the same mistakes.

"Cough! Let's talk about the red envelope of my brother later, there are a lot of people waiting, so I will give it later!"

Cao Cao glanced at Xun Yu pointingly.

When Xun Yu heard this, his heart was greatly hurt!

Hmph, editor Xun calls me when you need me, and if you don't want me, you'll just be an idler!

Bah, scumbag!

Listening to Cao Cao's words, Xia Houzhe nodded without thinking about it. He doesn't like money, he has no interest in money.

While the few people were chatting, the screams in the room stopped and turned into the cry of a child.

Creak... The door was opened, and the midwife rushed out excitedly.

"Prime Minister! Everyone is safe! Would you like to take a look?"

Xia Houzhe threw a large gold ingot at him, about ten gold.

"Can I go in now?"

The midwife took the gold ingot, smacked it frantically a few times, then put it into her arms and nodded fiercely!

That attitude is more attentive than anyone else.

"Yes! Of course I can! Everything has been taken care of, and the lady is doing well."

Upon hearing this, Xia Houzhe rushed in with everyone.

Cao Qing lay on the bed with pale lips and a weak face, covered with a quilt.

Beside him was a little boy who weighed four to five catties, and was crying with his claws and claws, as if he was very disturbed.

Seeing this, Xia Houzhe didn't look at Xiao Budian, but went straight to Cao Qing, looking at her worriedly.

"Qing'er, is there anything uncomfortable?"

Cao Qing shook her head happily, Xia Houzhe's actions made her feel full of care and love.

"Husband, I'm fine, it's just...it's Qing'er's fault that I couldn't give birth to you a fat boy!"

In this day and age, mothers are more expensive than children, and having a son is better than anything else.

Especially in big families, as long as a woman gives birth to a son, her status will be higher than that of other wives.

But if it's a daughter...it's very likely that she will fall out of favor.

If it is in an ordinary family, the daughter born is also very likely to be sold to a rich family as a maid in exchange for a sum of money.

So after Cao Qing gave birth to her daughter, there was a deep sense of guilt on her face.

Even Cao Cao couldn't help sighing, and turned his head a little resentfully, for fear that Xia Houzhe would not wait to see his daughter.

Seemingly seeing through their thoughts, Xia Houzhe couldn't help laughing.

"The girl is very nice! I really like my daughter, why do you have such expressions?"

Hearing his words, both Cao Cao and his daughter sighed.

Cao Cao patted Xia Houzhe on the shoulder: "Hey! They say raising children to prevent old age."

"Brother, I know you must be feeling very uncomfortable at the moment. It's because my daughter has failed to live up to her expectations and didn't let you hold her son."

"How about... you try harder? Another one?"

Xun Yu and the others also showed expressions of helplessness. Xia Houzhe finally gave birth to an heir, but it turned out to be a daughter.

The disappointment they could imagine.

Hearing this, Xia Houzhe glanced at them indifferently, carefully picked up the little one, and bumped his head affectionately.

"You know what a fart, I really like girls!"

"How good do you think it is to have a son? You really think that raising a son will prevent old age. Look at Gu Zixiu...can you help Lao Cao prevent old age in the future?"

"To tell you the truth... If you put it in more than 800 years, if you give birth to a daughter, you can enjoy it secretly!"

"If in those days, an ordinary family gave birth to a son... not only worried about you, but also worried about your family, and even two or three generations of ancestors."

Seeing Xia Houzhe's happy face, which didn't seem to be fake, Cao Cao and the others frowned.

"What do you mean by this? Since ancient times, men are superior to women, and they are proud of having sons. Why will the situation you mentioned appear after a thousand years?"

Even though a few of them are extremely intelligent people, they still don't understand the reason.

After all, the idea that men are superior to women has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Xia Houzhe laughed lightly, and told them how the people of later generations struggled for houses, cars, and sky-high betrothal gifts.

When Cao Cao and the others heard this, they were shocked immediately, and all of them showed expressions of disbelief.

"What? Three generations of ancestors have been working hard for the house in the bullshit school district? Just to let the children read good books and marry a good wife?"

"Those women are asking for such a lot of gifts? Are they selling their daughters or marrying their daughters?"

"And after getting married, you don't pay attention to the three obediences and the four virtues. How can you spend money to beg for an ancestor?"

"I just want to know, what does marriage bring to men?"

Xia Houzhe sighed, there are many house slaves in later generations.

But the reality is like this, you don't have a good house, your children can't study, and it's hard to marry a wife.

"Of course, this is the experience of most people, not everyone, and there are many rich people who are well off."

"But compared to the future, it's better for us now, as long as we agree with each other, the dowry is just a formality."

After getting used to the plain and simple life here, Xia Houzhe felt that the big man was much stronger than the era of gunfire in later generations.

Cao Cao felt deeply in his heart. The school district house...the wedding house...a house that is not worth much at the moment can make three generations of people become house slaves...

terrible!

What if I...wait a minute...a room in the school district?

Hiss... My Lanxiang and New Oriental are key universities in Yanzhou.

Or... I, Cao Cao, do this too?

After defrauding the top aristocratic families by building villas, now you can still defraud the upper class by building houses in the school district... Cool!

Thinking of it this way, Cao Cao became excited instantly, and felt that it was very interesting!

Anyway, future generations will live like that, so let them adapt a little earlier.

While he was meditating, Xia Houzhe interrupted him by complaining.

"My girl...Why is she so ugly? Qing'er is so pretty, so cute, and I am so handsome too...Why is my girl..."

"It's said that my granddaughter looks like my grandfather. I think it makes sense!"
