    Chapter 102 Holding hands

    The next day, Fu Changxiguo came to Zhen's house to pick up Zhen Tingyun to go to women's school according to his words.

    Came early in the morning.

    However, he came earlier than Zhen Tingyun imagined!

    It was still dark when he came, so he ordered the carriage to stop at the door, and he didn't get off, he just sat in the carriage and waited for Zhen Tingyun to come out.

    The Zhen family didn't dare to ask the regent to wait at the door for a long time, so they had to hurry in and report.

    Father Zhen and Mrs. Pei didn't sleep well last night because of Zhen Yiyun's affairs. After closing their eyes for a while, they were arguing. They had to put on their clothes and come out. Get up, it's not good to ask the lord to wait like this.

    Therefore, Zhen Tingyun was pulled out of the bed by Liushun and Bazhen with his eyes closed.

    It wasn't until Bazhen threw a towel in the hot water and twisted the hot and humid towel to cover her face, and her snowy and jade-like face gradually turned a bloody blush. She opened her eyes and glanced at Liu Shunhe reluctantly. Bazhen, vaguely said, "Why so early?"

    Liushun said immediately; "The regent is here, waiting for you at the door."

    Madam Zhen is getting older now, her sleep is getting shorter and she wakes up early, she can still lie on the couch now, squinting her eyes, smiling and watching her little granddaughter being pulled out of the bed by Liushun and Bazhen to be tossed.

    The old man was naturally happy to see that Zhen Tingyun and the Prince Regent had a good relationship, but seeing the sleepy appearance of her granddaughter at this time, she would inevitably joke in her mouth: "Oh, look at you, you will become a Getting married, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep late!"

    In fact, Zhen Tingyun is not really a sleeper, but she tossed around at Tzu Chi Temple yesterday, and tossed again when she got home. After talking for a long time, it was really rare to feel sleepy at this time, so I had to stand there with my eyes closed, changing my clothes from left to right.

    Zhen Tingyun was a little angry when he got up. Hearing this, he hummed and said, "Can't you tell him to wait?! There were so many things that happened yesterday, how can you get up so early in the morning?"

    However, Zhen Tingyun had just opened his mouth, and Bazhen immediately took a fine-bristle brush to brush her teeth.

    Zhen Tingyun: "...Um!" Really angry!

    Liushun and Bazhen were also instructed to move quickly, and they quickly packed Zhen Tingyun.

    Until he was pulled into the palace carriage, Zhen Tingyun didn't wake up: "!!!!!!"

    Seeing her ignorant appearance, Fu Changxi liked it very much, and he couldn't help but reach out and gently rub her cheek: "Wake up!"

    Zhen Tingyun resisted and didn't push the hand off his face, and finally reacted half a beat, and said angrily, "...I haven't used my breakfast yet!"

    Fu Changxi: "Didn't I take you out for breakfast?"

    Zhen Tingyun rolled his eyes and said again, "I haven't packed up the things I'm going to bring to the women's school!"

    Fu Changxi: "Well, I've already told your girls, let them hurry up and pack up, and when we come back from breakfast, we will just pick up the things and take you to the women's school."

    Zhen Tingyun was silent for a moment, quietly looked at Fu Changxi's face, and doubted in his heart: "Don't you remember that I drove you away yesterday and deliberately came to quarrel with me so early?!"

    Fu Changxi was about to laugh at her reaction: "I really don't know good people!"

    Yesterday, when Fu Changxi returned to the palace, he still felt a little uneasy towards Zhen Tingyun and wanted to make amends and make people happy. But he thought about it, but he couldn't think of a good wayjewelry, jade, etc., she also gave it to her on her birthday before, and Zhen Tingyun didn't like it very much; Zhen Tingyun didn't like it when he saw antique paintings It's very rare; Zhen Tingyun doesn't seem to like furry like cats and dogs...

    Fu Changxi thought about it for a long time, but it happened that Tang He came in and told him about Empress Dowager Zheng and the Zheng family.

    After talking about the business for a while, Fu Changxi remembered: Ah, the fireworks on the Qixi Festival were arranged by Tang He, looking at his house of wives and concubines, maybe he had some good ideas...

    So, Fu Changxi turned a corner and asked Tang He a few words politely.

    Tang He didn't know how to hide things from his highness, thinking that Zhen Tingyun was going to go back to the women's school soon, he said: "You have to be careful about coaxing the little girl-this is like: 'I hope to wake up tomorrow morning. The difference between 'I can see you' and 'I want to sleep with you'..."

    Fu Changxi coughed.

    Tang He had to keep his mouth shut, and secretly said: You are like this, you can't even hear "I want to sleep with you", no wonder you have to be a bachelor for so many years!

    Of course, Tang He also slandered a few words in his heart. On the face, he still had to think of a purer and more natural way for Fu Changxi, and after a little pondering, he said: "The plan of the day depends on the morning, otherwise, you can go there early and take her with you. Going to Beijing to have breakfast at an early stall? If you eat well, you will be in a good mood all day."

    To this end, Tang He also contributed to Fu Changxi 18 breakfast stalls that he brought his wife and eldest wife to eat, saying: "They all taste good, and the proprietress is also sweet and talkative, and she is very good at making people happy."

    Fu Changxi wrote it down dubiously, worried that Zhen Tingyun would wake up early and eat early, and would simply come before dawn. As a result, he was full of sincerity and entanglement, but Zhen Tingyun suspected him of taking revenge!

    It is really a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain!

    Thinking of this, Fu Changxi couldn't help pinching Zhen Tingyun's soft face with his fingers again, and felt that the hand felt quite good, as soft and bouncy as dough, which made him feel better.

    So, he also told Zhen Tingyun the truth: "I heard that some early shops in Beijing are quite good, so I thought of taking you to taste it."

    Zhen Tingyun was slightly startled when he heard the words.

    Fu Changxi sighed and took advantage of the situation to hold her hand, palms touching and fingers interlocking. He said softly, "You're going to go to women's school soon. I don't know when we will have breakfast together next time?"

    Fu Changxi has always had a stern face, described as dignified, and spoke in a rare soft voice. Even Zhen Tingyun felt his heart softened, and the moment of waking up was gone, so he turned his head with a hot face and changed the subject. He asked, "So, where are you going to have breakfast?"

    Fu Changxi held her hand and felt the little girl's soft and hot palm, his heart moved slightly, but his face remained calm, he just replied with a smile: "I have inquired, the Tonghua Hutong not far from your house. There is a breakfast shop there, and there are small wontons in the morning. I heard that their family uses fresh meat to wrap wontons, and they never use frozen meat overnight.”

    Zhen Tingyun's eyes lit up.

    Small wontons!

    Small wontons wrapped with fresh meat!

    Ah ah ah ah ah!

    Hurry up, why are you still sleeping? Eat the wontons now!

    Zhen Tingyun immediately stopped complaining that Fu Changxi was making her sleep, and she even pulled her sleeves, her dimples were sweet, her voice was sweet, and she praised her sweetly like this: "I know that Mr. loves me the most. !"

    It's a pity that this sentence was sweet, and then, Zhen Tingyun urged again: "Is it the past now?"

    Fu Changxi reluctantly replied, "Yes."

    Seeing this, Zhen Tingyun also said very considerately: "If the alley is too narrow and the carriage can't get in, we can walk there too, otherwise it will be too time-consuming to go around."

    Fu Changxi: "...don't worry."

    Zhen Tingyun finally sat down obediently, without urging anyone, he just flattered Fu Changxi sweetly: "Sir, you are really amazing, I didn't even know that there was such a breakfast shop in Tonghua Hutong next to me!"

    When Fu Changxi heard the words, his expression changed slightly, and he said lightly: "You are so lazy, I'm afraid that it will open in front of your door, and you won't know it!"

    Zhen Tingyun said without blush: "I don't know if I don't know, anyway, I have a husband. Sir, you will definitely take me to other early shops in the capital for breakfast in the future, right?"

    Fu Changxi: "..."

    Although it is true that he intends to take her to a breakfast shop and have breakfast together...

    I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm in a trap? !

    ******

    Since they had deliberately picked a breakfast stall close to Zhen's house, it took them a quarter of an hour to get there by car at this time.

    At this time, the sky was still drowsy, with only a little fish maw white on the horizon, and there were not many people on the stall. The boss was working in front of the boiler, and the lady boss and two guys were working at the stall.

    Seeing the style of the carriage and the guards on the side, the old bridesmaid has some eyesight. At first glance, she knew that she was a noble person who came to taste the early adopters. Her face was more earnest, and she came out to welcome the guests in person.

    Then, she saw a man with a stern face and an extraordinary bearing got out of the car first, and then the man turned his head and stretched out his hand to help a little girl down from the car.

    The proprietress smiled immediately: "Is this lord taking the little niece out for dinner?"

    She thought to herself that she had some eyesight: This little girl is obviously unknown, so she is not a little lady; if it is a daughter, this girl seems to be old again... She guessed that it was probably her sister or niece, Seeing that the two didn't look alike, guessed it was a niece, and a niece who was born like a mother.

    As a result, as soon as the proprietress spoke these words, Fu Changxi's face turned dark.

    Instead, it was Zhen Tingyun, she laughed with a puff, blinked her eyes, and suddenly called Fu Changxi sweetly, "Uncle?"

    Fu Changxi: "...don't be naughty!"

    Before the words were spoken, Fu Changxi realized that he was more like an elder, and his face became darker.

    On the other hand, the proprietress would look at her face, and when she saw her appearance, she guessed that she was about to call him wrong. Towel, carefully wiped the table and chairs, and then asked with a smile, "What do you two want to eat?"

    Although Zhen Tingyun wanted to eat wontons in his heart, he still had to put on a shelf and asked, "What do you have here?"

    The proprietress smiled and said, "Baozi biscuits, fried fritters with fried fruits, bean curd with bean juice, and hot porridge with thin noodles and wontons, we have everything here."

    Zhen Tingyun then said, "Two bowls of wontons, and two more fried dough sticks..."

    After a pause, Zhen Tingyun turned to look at Fu Changxi again.

    Fu Changxi still had a cold face, obviously still angry.

    Zhen Tingyun had to ask the proprietress again: "What stuffing are the buns and biscuits in your place?"

    The proprietress said: "Pork, beef and mutton are all available."

    Zhen Tingyun then said, "Two more sesame seeds filled with mutton, um, two more bowls of bean curd."

    The proprietress has a good memory, so she doesn't have to take notes, she jots it down as soon as she hears it, and then asks, "Do you want the tofu brain to be sweet or salty?"

    Zhen Tingyun was taken aback: "Is the tofu brain still sweet?"

    The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled: "Oh, many southerners like to eat sweets. I see that the girl is petite and small, but she looks like a southerner, so I asked one more question."

    Zhen Tingyun was still young, so he couldn't help but be a little curious. Hearing this, he hesitated, and said, "Then, just a bowl of sweet, and a bowl of salty, I'll have a taste."

    After all, this is the first time have come to this breakfast stall, and don't know what the taste of this restaurant is. Zhen Tingyun didn't want to order more things, in short, taste it first.

    The proprietress should simply say, "Okay."

    As she spoke, she put the towel that had wiped the table on her arm and commanded in a loud voice, "Two bowls of wontons, two fried dough sticks, two sesame seeds filled with mutton, one bowl of sweet bean curd brain, one bowl of salty Tofu brain." She smiled at Zhen Tingyun after she finished reporting, "You two sit down for a while, and wait, it will be fine in a while."

    Because Fu Changxi's face was cold all the time, the proprietress took a peek at him, and was forced by his aura, so she didn't dare to ask more questions, and quickly backed out.

    When the proprietress left, Zhen Tingyun stretched out his hand, quietly tugged his sleeve under the table, and whispered coquettishly, "Uncle, don't you be angry?"

    Fu Changxi was even more angry: "You still call your uncle?!"

    For some reason, seeing Fu Changxi's angry appearance, Zhen Tingyun couldn't help but laugh and explained, "I just made it easy."

    Seeing her smile with crooked brows and cheeks, Fu Changxi couldn't get angry, so he turned his head away and snorted.

    His profile was tight, with a deep outline, a high nose and deep eyes, a cold lip line, handsome and indifferent.

    The whole person seems to be very unapproachable and has a bad temper.

    No wonder even the enthusiastic proprietress dared not talk to him indiscriminately.

    However, for some reason, Zhen Tingyun sat on the side, resting his chin in his hand, tilted his head to look at him, and felt happy when he saw it.

    She pursed her lips, and instead of pulling her sleeves with her fingers, she held his hand with a smile.

    The early morning sun shines through the thin clouds, and the wall on the side of Tonghua Hu is illuminated by a small piece, and the mottled traces on the wall can be vaguely seen. However, in the soft and warm morning light, everything seems to be plated with a pale golden halo, with more color, and the moss on the wall looks extremely crisp and delicate.

    At this time, I was sitting at the breakfast stall in Tonghua Hutong, and when I looked out, I could see the streets outside the Hutong. own business.

    At this moment, even the human voice seemed so far away.

    It seems that the entire capital is enveloped in such a soft and beautiful morning light, all breathing and stretching in the tranquility and tranquility of this dawn.

    Zhen Tingyun and Fu Changxi were sitting at the breakfast stall at the entrance of the alley, holding hands under the table, and when they looked up, they could see the first light golden sunlight in the morning.

    So beautiful, so heartwarming.
