    Chapter 53 Braised Pig Head

    Zhen Tingyun had a good appetite when he was young, and he almost finished eating in no time.

    Then, having nothing to do after breakfast, she had to sit in the seat, holding her cheeks, quietly watching Fu Changxi eat.

    With Fu Changxi's identity, he was born to attract attention, and he was already used to the eyes of others. Even now, above the palace banquet, his position is only below the emperor, which can be regarded as the focus of everyone's attention. But he was still able to stand up to the eyes of the crowd, use his own meals, and take it easy.

    However, when Zhen Tingyun stared at him like this, Fu Changxi felt a little uncomfortable. He paused for a while, then put the porridge bowl on hold, and casually stirred the spoon with his fingertips, and asked casually, "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

    Zhen Tingyun blinked, his apricot eyes were big and bright, with clear black and white, and his appearance was both well-behaved and innocent.

    Fu Changxi felt itchy again and wanted to touch his head.

    It was at this time that Zhen Tingyun finally said, "Sir, when will we hold the apprenticeship ceremony?"

    Her voice was crisp and crisp, with the sweetness unique to a girl, very pleasant to the ear.

    However, as soon as the voice fell, a crisp sound was heard——

    "clang".

    It was the sound of a spoon hitting the wall of a china bowl.

    Fu Changxi's hand holding the spoon was slender and strong, but at this time it was slightly tense. Due to the excessive force, the pulp of the fingers holding the handle of the spoon was slightly white and the joints were distinct.

    Zhen Tingyun looked at him when he heard the sound, and frowned in confusion.

    Fu Changxi's expression was as usual, he still scooped the hot porridge with a spoon, and took two sips slowly, then asked her as if nothing had happened, "Why do you suddenly think of this?"

    Zhen Tingyun had always trusted him, and he would not hide it from him, and explained calmly: "Mrs. Chu told me that it is best to complete the apprenticeship ceremony before entering school. Then I will do the apprenticeship ceremony with Madam Chu."

    This statement is reasonable and reasonable. Regardless of the rest, Fu Changxi is actually quite satisfied with her attitude of putting herself first.

    However, the words of the promise came to his lips, and Fu Changxi suddenly had some inexplicable premonitions.

    Like him, on the frontier battlefield, people who have passed through the front line of life and death are most able to grasp that gossamer-like hunch. Therefore, he quickly swallowed the words again, pursed his thin lips slightly, and changed his mouth to say: "Nothing, I still have some things to deal with here, I am afraid that it will affect you, and I am afraid that I can't do anything to apprentice at this time. Courtesy. Don't worry too much about priority..."

    Zhen Tingyun secretly slandered: Just like you—the person who can grab me and say "respect teachers and respect Taoism a dozen times without first handing you a cup of hot tea," how did he say "don't care too much about precedence" This is what?

    However, Zhen Tingyun still had his own husband in his heart. Hearing what he said, he would agree.

    Even, because of Fu Changxi's words, she also remembered the tragic state of the other's body when the two met for the first time, and then thought about her husband's lavish performance after he came to the capital - there are yard and guards, and eat well After she wears it, she can even give her a box of ancient jade paintings...

    That's too bad, isn't it?

    There must be something wrong here.

    Although she knew that these things should not be asked by her, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had no confidence in her heart. She was really worried about her husband, so she had to be bold and tentatively asked: "Sir, is what you are doing now particularly dangerous? what?"

    Zhen Tingyun felt scared when he thought about it, but at the same time he was very worried about his husband: heard that the prince regent became a vassal at a young age, and his decision to kill was a hard-hearted heart honed on the battlefield. Most of these people are deep-minded people, and their hearts have long been darkened. Now they are sending things to the yard and things. They must have no good intentions. When we met, husband was injured...

    Zhen Tingyun frightened himself, and made his little face white with fright, and whispered: "Sir, why don't you do those things, what if something happens?"

    Fu Changxi knew that she was thinking crooked, but Zhen Tingyun's idea was based on the fact that he was "the person next to the regent". He couldn't tell her his true identity directly, right?

    Moreover, looking at her pitiful appearance of worrying about herself, Fu Changxi felt that his old heart seemed to be soaked in hot water, and it was so soft that he even choked his throat and couldn't speak.

    It took him a long time to manage his emotions and comfort Zhen Tingyun: "It's okay, what I'm doing is not very dangerous. I said 'there are still some things I haven't dealt with' because I still have some things I can't remember now, and The overall situation is undecided, and I am always a little worried.”

    Zhen Tingyun didn't believe it very much, and only looked at him suspiciously.

    Fu Changxi had to say to her, "Can't you be more confident in your husband?"

    He was worried that Zhen Tingyun was thinking crooked or continued to ask questions. He raised his hand and poured himself a cup of hot tea to moisten his throat. He turned the subject and asked her, "You have been arguing with your family now, have you ever thought about what will happen in the future?" After a pause, he added, "Although you can live in a women's school now, after all, the women's school is only three years old, and you can't live in a women's school for the rest of your life."

    Zhen Tingyun naturally has his own plans for this: "After three years of women's school, I will be seventeen, and I can get married after cleaning up. What do I do with the people and affairs of the family?!"

    Fu Changxi was drinking tea from a cup, listening to what she said when the hot tea was in the mouth, so he didn't spit out the tea in his mouth.

    Rao so, he also choked on the tea, coughed, and the snow-colored cheeks flushed red.

    Seeing this, Zhen Tingyun hurriedly got up from his seat, raised his hand to stroke Fu Changxi's back, and said angrily, "You can choke when you drink water..."

    Fu Changxi managed to stop his coughing and looked up at her with deep eyes, with some inexplicable emotion: "How old are you now, are you thinking about getting married?"

    Zhen Tingyun was very open to this, without the slightest shyness and embarrassment that a girl's family should have, and her tone was very calm: "Girls will always marry when they are old. Except for those female students who want to go to a girls' school. Besides, girls from the countryside can be married at the age of 14 or 15. That is to say, I have passed the entrance examination for women's school this year, otherwise my mother will have to think about finding a marriage for me when I get married next year."

    Saying that, Zhen Tingyun couldn't help but think of the dream he had before coming to Beijing: Zhen Yiyun in the dream was so beautiful that it caused many children in Beijing to bow down, and in the end, unexpectedly, she married into Prince Yan's mansion. She became the prince concubine of King Yan; but Zhen Tingyun in the dream failed in everything, and because of Zhen Yiyun, her reputation was bad, and she was rejected by her parents. No one would like her at all, even if there was a proposal for marriage, it was mostly seen. For the sake of Zhen Yiyun or the Zhen family, most of them are people who are neither embarrassed nor embarrassed, or those who want to marry her as a successor. Fortunately, Father Zhen and Mrs. Pei are both people who want face, so naturally they will not marry her indiscriminately, just now they have the idea to send her back to her hometown, and let the elders in the clan find her a marriage, and she will be able to send her away in a lifetime... …

    Thinking of the ending in the dream, Zhen Tingyun couldn't help sighing deeply, and he rarely felt a little emotional: "Actually, I work so hard to study for women's school, I hope that I will stand tall by then, there will be more room for choice, and I will be able to find a good door for myself. Marriage, my wife will be peaceful for the rest of my life."

    Fu Changxi could be vomited to death by her words - could it be possible that he taught her hard along the way, helped her to pass the entrance exam to the women's school, and ended up marrying him in order for her to choose a good marriage? !

    Fu Changxi inhaled and exhaled, inhaled and exhaled... Thinking of suppressing the stagnation in his chest first. As a result, he couldn't hold back his anger, he gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words: "Good marriage? So what do you want to choose?"

    Zhen Tingyun didn't feel any difference when he heard his question. After all, there are also husbands who are matchmakers these days—such as Zhen Fu and Pei Shi. It is the husband who values ​​students and promises to love his daughter. This is how the marriage between Zhen Fu and Pei Shi was achieved.

    Thinking that Fu Changxi had seen a lot of people in the past, maybe there is something suitable, Zhen Tingyun said tentatively: "Then I will say it?"

    Fu Changxi's face was cold, he couldn't see the slightest emotion, he only replied: "Mm."

    Zhen Tingyun said calmly: "I didn't want to look for a high-ranking person, just a middle-class person. The first thing to look at is the appearance and personality, but you don't have to pick any young talents, as long as you look good. The most important thing is to have a good character; secondly, the family is clean and honest, if the population is simple, and there are no concubines and concubines, it will be better. The rest, you can do it sir..."

    Zhen Tingyun's requirements are really not high, neither for family wealth nor for family, nor for fame.

    But Fu Changxi felt his heart block when he heard it, and waved his hand to perfunctory the words: "I will take care of you..."

    Zhen Tingyun and Fu Changxi said so many things in their hearts that are not easy to talk to others, and felt a lot of relief in their chests for a while, and their smiles were even better. In the afternoon, she still pestered Fu Changxi to learn the qin for a while. The two of them took turns playing the qin and xiao, occasionally flipping through it and memorizing a score, which was a good way to kill time.

    Until evening, Zhen Tingyun saw that it was getting late, and then reluctantly got up and left.

    Fu Changxi took her to the carriage, and seeing that the carriage was driving away, he turned around and walked back.

    Since there was no one around, he paced the courtyard alone, and couldn't help but began to ponder the two conditions that Zhen Tingyun said:

    "The first thing is to look at the appearance and character. It doesn't have to be good. It is enough to look good and pleasing to the eye. The important thing is to have a good character."

    I'm only such a female student, so I can't find a crooked melon, can I? Or to find a good-looking person with good character.

    "Second, the family is clean and upright. If the population is simple and there are no concubines and concubines, it will be better."

    That kind of person who has a concubine without a wife is definitely not acceptable - a man who doesn't know how to keep himself clean must have no self-control, and he can't control the little things. Of course, you can't marry your female student.

    Speaking of which, if she married her own female student and had to take a concubine, it would definitely not work. Still, have to find someone who doesn't pay after marriage...

    The more Fu Changxi thought about it, the more irritable he became, and he simply thought about all the unmarried young men he knew. Somehow, those who looked good in the past, now think about it, there is something wrong.

    It is said that Pei Ge's eldest grandson, Pei Rusong, is the most outstanding among the sons of this generation in Beijing. people are closer.

    But Fu Changxi shook his head when he remembered the stupid thing Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Pei had done: Pei Rusong has such a mother, so it can be seen that he is not someone who can be trusted.

    Then, Fu Changxi thought of his nephew and nephew again.

    The nephew Rong Ziming was spoiled by the eldest Princess Huiguo, and it was definitely impossible for Jinyu to be spoiled.

    On the other hand, the nephew of the Prince of Yan, the nephew, has a good appearance and personality. Even Princess Yan is a person who understands and understands things, not such a cunning and unreasonable evil mother-in-law...

    But Fu Changxi just thought about it for a moment, and then crossed out the name of Prince Yan's son from the list in his heart - if he married the prince of Yan Wang, there would be a father-in-law like King Yan who asked for immortality. Stuff some messy medicinal herbs... this is not possible!

    ******

    Just when Fu Changxi was thinking about finding a perfect husband for Zhen Tingyun, Zhen Tingyun's carriage also arrived at the gate of Zhen's residence.

    I don't know if it's a coincidence or a coincidence, Zhen Tingyun went out with Pei's Zhen father on the front and back feet in the morning, and now he came back just in time, and it was also the work of the front and rear.

    Zhen Tingyun got off the car just now, and saw Father Zhen and Pei's carriage coming in from behind.

    At this time, since Zhen Tingyun, the daughter, saw it, he couldn't turn his head and left. He had to stop and stand on one side with his head bowed, waiting for Father Zhen and Mrs. Pei to get off the car, and then went up to meet him again. People please be safe.

    After a while, the carriage stopped at the second door, and Father Zhen opened the curtain first and got out of the carriage.

    Probably because of something in his heart, Father Zhen was not as alert and vigilant as he used to be. He didn't notice the young girl standing not far away at the first time. Instead, he turned around and carefully removed the cloaked girl. Pei helped him down from the car.

    To be honest, now that it's July, and the weather is getting hotter, it's really rare for Mrs. Pei to be wrapped in a cloak.

    Zhen Tingyun was curious and couldn't help but take a look.

    Then, she saw Pei's swollen face like the braised pig's head on the New Year's offering table.

    Zhen Tingyun: I'm sorry, I really can't stand it anymore!

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

    Although don't know which hero made the hand, let's laugh at it first!
