Chapter 177 Do me a favor

Cao Miao turned his wrist and easily removed the sharp blade from Aunt Ren's hand. He raised his legs and kicked Aunt Ren's heel, took off her clogs, leaving only her snow-white silk footwear, and then gently pushed it.

Aunt Ren turned around, sat down opposite him, lifted up a trace of messy hair on his temples. Although the skin on his face was a little loose, his posture was very elegant and had a charm that ordinary people could not meet. Even Princess Qinghe and Princess Deyang would feel ashamed of themselves when she saw it.

Cao Miao ignored it and reached out and pulled Aunt Ren's clogs from the wall of the car, put them together with the one on the ground, and looked at them carefully.

The clogs are very delicate. The bottom plate is made of hardwood, and the grooves are carved to adapt to the arch, painted with lacquer, with belts on it, and flowers are twisted, like a pair of artworks. However, what surprised Cao Miao the most was a pair of sharp blades hidden at the bottom of the clogs, powered by twisted tendons, which is similar to the Roman crossbow. It can be used to pop out a short knife and eject it to conduct long-range attacks.

Cao Miao tried it, and with a "whoosh", the short knife shot into the car wall, which was powerful and powerful. If it were replaced with a lighter short arrow, the range could reach about ten steps. It was so small, but it had such power, and it could be called a magical tool.

"Good skills!" He praised, then raised his eyelids, looked at Aunt Ren, who looked embarrassed, and raised the corners of his mouth. "Can the aunt introduce this craftsman to me? I want to ask him to make a few things."

Aunt Ren sat upright, hid her feet with her skirt, and bowed slightly. "I'll let him come to see the hometown minister."

Cao Miao nodded and looked at Aunt Ren quietly. "There is one thing, I want to ask Aunt."

"Please give orders to the hometown minister."

"Please tell some people not to force me."

Aunt Ren rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I don't know what the hometown minister is saying..."

"You know, they understand too." Cao Miao reached out and knocked on the wall of the carriage. The carriage slowly stopped and someone opened the door. Cao Miao got up and got out of the car, standing under the carriage. He shook his sleeves, but used a dusting force, and the soft silk long sleeves made a crisp sound.

Aunt Ren's eyes shrank, and naturally grew up, changing from sitting to kneeling. "Hey."

"Waiting for your good news." Cao Miao raised his hand and walked towards another carriage.

Xiahou Xu and Yunniang sat in another carriage. Through the car window, they saw Aunt Ren kneeling in the carriage and were shocked. Yunniang raised her hand to cover her open red lips and glanced at Xiahou Xu. "Shao Junhou, how did the Township Duke do it?"

Xiahou Xu was also stupid. He met Aunt Ren many times, but Aunt Ren has always been neither humble nor arrogant. No matter who he sees, he is always polite, but he never feels inferior. It is even more unprecedented to kneel down. In that yard, she is the unscrupulous owner, and no one can make her bow down, let alone kneel down.

At this moment, his admiration for Cao Miao was like the water of the Yellow River, and he kept talking. But when he saw Yunniang's admiration for Cao Miao, he felt so sad and refused to admit it. "You read it wrong, it's just politeness." Xiahou Xu said seriously.

Yunniang blinked and smiled knowingly. She understood Xiahou Xu's intentions and accepted Xiahou Xu's self-deception explanation.

When we reached the next intersection, the two convoys separated and went their separate ways.

——

The manor is located in the northwest of Luoyang City, in the Rangshui River Valley.

Cao Miao vaguely remembers that the famous Jingu Garden in later generations seemed to be in this location.

The manor in front of me is not as luxurious as Jingu Garden, but is just a rough and large scale. Fortunately, the scenery is beautiful and very quiet, which is very suitable for patients like Cao Miao to recuperate.

Of course, it is also suitable for Xiahou Xuguang to stay alone with Yunniang in a just way and carry out the final challenge.

Yunniang's admiration for Cao Miao seriously stimulated Xiahou Xu. He was afraid that his efforts for so many years would be wasted and that Cao Miao would finally get all the benefits. Taking advantage of the opportunity to lead Cao Miao to visit, Xiahou Xu made a hesitant request, hoping that Cao Miao would leave Yunniang's blood for him. He spent so much effort and so much money, he couldn't even fight for the first night.

Cao Miao glanced at him with contempt. "As far as I see, Yunniang is far from being the top brand under the command of Aunt Ren, except for her cooking skills."

"I know, but I just like it." Xiahou Xu begged: "Yunliang, you are far superior to me in terms of appearance and talent. Even the Grand Marshal robs you of your son-in-law. Just give it to me if you are an ordinary Yunniang."

"I like it so much?"

"I really like it." Xiahou Xu nodded vigorously.

"How much do you like and how much you are willing to pay?" Cao Miao asked, "Will you die for her?"

"This..." Xiahou Xu shook his head. "It is impossible to die for her. But as long as you are willing to give it to me, I owe you a favor. If you have anything I can do in the future, you can speak up, and you will never say anything."

Cao Miao stared at Xiahou Xu for a while and smiled. He stretched out his arm, held Xiahou Xu's shoulder, and patted him gently. "Boyuan, why did you think I wanted to keep her? Why did you come here and bring you with you?"

Xiahou Xu Ru Ru woke up from her dream, pointed at Cao Miao and laughed happily. "I understand, good brother, this is the real good brother."

Cao Miao grabbed his hand and told him to rest as he was a little restless. "Boyuan, I can let it go, but I can't force her to like you. If you just want her first night, it's very simple. I'll sleep with her tonight. As for Aunt Ren, she won't dare to do anything with me."

Xiahou Xu's eyes were circling around, and his heart was thrilling.

"But if you want to not only get her people, but also her heart, you have to spend some thoughts."

Xiahou Xu shouted aggrievedly. "Yunliang, you don't know, I spent my thoughts on her..."

"Your thoughts are not right." Cao Miao interrupted Xiahou Xu again. "There are people who please her every day. Are you still missing one? To put it bluntly, besides having a good family background, are you famous, talented, or beautiful? You have to give her what others can't give to her, so that you can truly win her heart."

"Then... I can't give her a name either."

"Why can't you give it?"

Xiahou Xu smacked his lips and felt embarrassed to speak. He was in his early twenties and had nothing but food, drink and entertainment. He had no talent, no name, and no hope except to inherit the title in the future. At home, he had to ask his parents for pocket money, so he had no status. A daughter who advocated her family would just play outside and she wouldn't dare to take it home.

The Cao family and the Xiahou family were both born in poor families. Now that they have become royal families, they naturally have to clean themselves. Things like Cao Cao marrying Bian will never happen again. Although Xiahou Xu could not be a famous scholar like Xiahou Xuan and brought glory to his family, he did not dare to defame himself.

"Don't blame your mother for being cowardly." Cao Miao said bluntly. "Think about it, if you are as young and promising as Taichu, will your mother stop you from taking Yunniang as your concubine?"

Xiahou Xu was very frustrated. Of course he knew this truth, but how could he be compared with Xiahou Xuan?

"Do you want to take a concubine openly?" Cao Miao said with a smile. "Do you a favor."
