Chapter Seventy-Eight: Okay

Would you like to marry?

Fu Mingxian's heart missed a beat inexplicably, and her mind suddenly flashed the appearance of marrying Wang Yan in her previous life, standing desperately in Fu Guogong's mansion in a red wedding dress. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Do you want to get married?

Fu Mingxian stared at her eyebrows for a while, even if she returned to her first life, she seemed to have a shadow in her heart about marrying, she thought about serving her parents well, thinking about planning a future for Fu Mingyuan, and thinking about punishing those who had harmed her before.

But I never thought about getting married.

Maybe after she does everything in her hands well, she will follow He Zhixiu's arrangement and find the right person to live an ordinary life in this life, but that will be at least a few years later.

Who knows, Fu Zhoushi actually mentioned this matter to the process, and he was still so frank and straightforward.

"Mingxian, you are a smart child, and grandmother doesn't want to play dumb riddles with you. ”

Fu Zhoushi looked at Fu Mingxian seriously, "Today you also saw the old lady of the Rongguo Mansion and Shang Cifu, both of them are the noble ladies of Ying Tianzhong, and their words have full weight, you must have guessed a little bit of their intentions." ”

"If you tell your grandmother the truth, do you have someone you like in your heart? or ...... You still remember that ...... Huo Yanqing?"

Fu Zhou's face hesitated, remembering Fu Mingxian's attachment to Huo Yanqing in the past, in fact, the former Fu Guogong Mansion and Huo Guohou Mansion were a good match, no matter what, Fu Mingxian could be worthy of Huo Yanqing.

But Huo Yanqing is naturally indifferent, in the early years, some people said that he loved Zhao Wanrong, the eldest lady of Zhao Guogong's Mansion, but after all, she has been married for many years, Huo Yanqing is an infatuated person, and has always been single and unmarried.

Huo Guohou's Mansion actually agreed.

If Fu Mingxian is still obsessed with him...... Then even if she shows her face, she has to help make peace, if Fu Mingxian has no intention of him, then she will help find other candidates.

"I don't like it, I don't feel too deep. Seeing Fu Zhou's so restrained, but like a child who did something wrong, Fu Mingxian smiled open-mindedly.

In the years when she was depressed, the most Fu Mingxian did was to look at the endless sky in a daze, thinking about the past.

When she was playing in Lan'an Pavilion, she saw a young man who was holding chess and meditating in that piece of red plum and snow, the young man's body was weakened, but he was exceptionally tall, Fu Mingxian couldn't see his appearance clearly at that time, but he remembered the ink jade on his waist.

The ink jade is superior, but the carving is very rough, like a ...... The children left behind, Fu Mingxian thought it was very interesting.

Later, in the Zhao Guogong Mansion, it was also a day of heavy snowfall, coinciding with my grandmother's birthday, and invited the opera troupe and relatives and friends to participate, but I didn't expect Huo Yanqing to follow, even after many years, Fu Mingxian still recognized the ink jade at a glance.

The weakened boy had grown into a cold and gloomy man, and the thin cyan robe was embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf pattern piping and the mutton fat jade hairpin on his head.

is obviously so handsome, but he has to keep a straight face, and he writes coldly that no one should enter.

Fu Mingxian was curious, so she took a few more looks, only to feel that the mutton fat jade on his head was exceptionally bright, and it seemed that the whole person was warming up with him.

Fu Mingxian wanted to be with him very much, and kept looking at the warmth on him.

She has had both parents since she was a child, and it may be really a lack of love, and the lack of love from her parents made her extremely persistent towards Huo Yanqing, did a lot of wrong things, and finally ended up sick and complained by the world.

Especially when Zhao Qin was dying, he held her hand tightly, and his grandmother was already sick and couldn't speak, but her eyes were staring at her, and her eyes were full of unwillingness.

Since then, Fu Mingxian has always asked herself why she had to be so persistent back then, hurting others and hurting herself, and what she liked about Huo Yanqing.

Do you like the way he looks, or do you like his family background, or do you like his personality......? Neither.

All Fu Mingxian could think of was the warm mutton fat jade hairpin on his bun, and nothing else.

Even in the end, she was very vague about what Huo Yanqing looked like, if it wasn't for Fu Zhou's mention, Fu Mingxian would have forgotten the existence of this person.

At first sight, I fell in love, met lightly, and parted with a clear heart.

Or maybe what she likes is just a feeling that makes her feel warm.

From the first madness, to the later sadness and calmness.

Fu Mingxian has long been out of love.

Whoever is separated cannot live.

Hearing Fu Mingxian say that he didn't love it, Fu Zhou was really relieved, and continued, "Although your father's official position is not high, but with Mrs. Rong and Mrs. Shang as matchmakers, plus a rich dowry, he may not be so rich, but ...... It's okay to keep you safe. ”

The identity of the imperial court, the emperor's relatives, and Fu Mingxian's identity is very far-fetched, but if you retreat some standards, the second sons of those families still have concubines.

Fu Zhou's has lived for decades and has seen many things clearly, people can't chase fame and fortune too much in their lives, getting married is a matter for two people to live a lifetime, identity and power are secondary, and the most important thing is.

Will the person you marry be good to you for the rest of your life.

A rich dowry, it seems that Fu Zhou's family is planning to make up for Fu Mingxian's dowry.

Fu Zhou's eyes were slightly red and looked at Fu Mingxian, because there was a precedent, she spoke cautiously, "Don't worry, the chosen person must have you nod and agree, grandmother...... Grandmother will never force you to do anything you don't want to do again. ”

Fu Mingxian twisted her eyebrows, as if she was thinking.

The expectation in Fu Zhou's eyes weakened little by little, and she didn't dare to look at Fu Mingxian's eyes anymore, she was still blaming herself.

Fu Zhou wanted to leave, and motioned for Mama Xu to step forward to help.

The door was opened, and the north wind blew in along the door, blowing on Fu Mingxian's face, as if she was confused, and the corners of her eyes were a little moist.

Fu Zhou's footsteps faltered, and his body was no longer as strong as it used to be, much shorter, much thinner, full of gorgeous hair, and a thin body.

Fu Mingxian took a deep breath, Qingtong Courtyard was not far from the plum garden, and it seemed that there was a little elegant fragrance of plum blossoms in the air.

"Good. ”

Fu Zhou's footsteps paused slightly, then lifted up again until they disappeared into the endless night.

……

Fu Mingxian stayed in Fu Guogong's Mansion for a few more days, except for the day when she came to her room to talk about family affairs, Fu Zhou's family let Fu Mingxian accompany her as usual, and kept silent about other things.

Seems to be waiting for something.

Fu Mingxian took care of Fu Zhou's family while realizing the tea ceremony, and the tense atmosphere was also a little safe and suitable.

Fu Zhou said that he would let himself go back before the New Year's banquet at the latest.

Fu Mingxian counted the days, I'm afraid it's been these three or two days, and she also told Mama Du about her situation, I'm afraid that there will be no master-apprentice relationship in the future.

Mama Du was silent for a while, and then let her practice again, whether it is a tea ceremony or surprise, there must be six conditions.

Tea, water, people, utensils, fine, elegant.

The tea leaves have been almost memorized, Fu Mingxian is practicing the water temperature, and the taste of the tea brewed is completely different depending on the water temperature.

On the other end, Mama Xu was a little excited to report the good news to Fu Zhou's.

"Old lady, the old lady of the merchant has written to you. ”

"Really, show it to me. Fu Zhou's eyes sparkled, she had been waiting for news for a long time.

Shang Li's envelope was slowly opened, and several names were listed on it, and behind the names were marked the family background, as well as Shang Li's analysis of it, all in detail.

Fu Zhoushi kept watching, while not forgetting to discuss with Mama Xu.

"Old lady, old slave looks at the old lady Shang, these are very good. Both knowledge and conduct are superior. Especially Qin Luo, the fifth young master of the Qin State Mansion. Mama Xu admired Shang Li's methods a little, and she was able to include Qin Luo's name in it.

If you want to talk about the royal relatives and nobles of the Ming Dynasty, it should be the Qin State Mansion in front, the emperor has a deep affection for the Qin concubine, and Aiwu and Wu are also very favored by the Qin State Mansion.

Qin Luo, as the youngest son of the Duke of Qin, is always loved by the family, and is used to being the second ancestor who is not learned and unskilled, but his identity is first-class noble, and the Duke of Qin is very enlightened, and their status in the Duke of Qin is extraordinary.

There is no need for marriage to expand the power of the icing on the cake, Qin Luo's wife, as long as he can tie him up and let him take care of some serious things, then the entire Qin State Mansion will burn incense and worship the Buddha.

The most important thing is that Qin Luo is also the same age as Fu Mingxian, so he is an excellent candidate.

Qin Luo worshiped under Shang Cifu's disciple, and everyone else thought that Qin Luo had a stubborn personality, but Shang Li felt that Qin Luo's people were very good and had no official status, which was also the reason why Shang Li listed Qin Luo in the first place.

But Fu Zhou shook his head with a smile, "Qin Luo is indeed the most noble in this, but his personality is not suitable for Ming Xian, if Ming Xian can tie his heart, it's fine, if not, I'm afraid he will be lonely for the rest of his life." ”

Fu Zhou directly crossed Qin Luo and pointed at Shen Yu behind him.

"The second son of Lord Shen of Yushitai, he has been training in the army in the early years, and I heard that it was his grandfather Shen who missed his grandson and wanted Shen Yu to occupy a stable idle position in Beijing, so he was dispatched back a few years ago. ”

"Because of his military service, although he was over 20 years old, he did not marry a wife. Fu Zhou was obviously very satisfied, "Lord Shen is an honest official, and he belongs to a clear stream in the court, and he only has one wife in his family, and there are no concubines and aunts to fight with." ”

"The family background is innocent, the people who are in the army have a sense of responsibility, it's not a problem to be older, it's good to know how to hurt people, it's just ......" Fu Zhoushi frowned, "It's just that the people in the army will kill too much?"

Looking at Shang Li's evaluation of him, is it gentle and considerate, outgoing and cheerful, Fu Zhou always feels uneasy.

Mama Xu said with a smile, "It's better to put Shen Gongzi in the first place first, and wait for the meeting to know soon." ”

Fu Zhou nodded, discussed with Mama Xu for a while, and selected two candidates, so he was satisfied.

"Old Madam Shang also passed the word, if the old lady you like whom, she can wait for the convenience of the New Year, and find an opportunity for Miss Fu to meet the other party, which can be regarded as seeing if it fits the eye. ”

Fu Zhoushi smiled from ear to ear, "Well, then wait for the New Year, and I can be considered to be able to let go of a worry." ”

Fu Zhoushi was talking and talking, the smile in the corner of his eyes disappeared, and turned into reluctance, "It's about to end the New Year, I'm afraid that the New Year's banquet will not be stable, and it's time to send Mingxian back." ”

"Tomorrow morning, send for her mother, and take her back." Fu Zhou's face was filled with loss.

Mama Xu sighed.

……

Early the next morning.

"Miss, Miss......" Magpie was a little out of breath, "Miss, it's not good." ”

Fu Mingxian frowned slightly, "What's wrong, it's not that I told you to go to the kitchen to get some hot water, I'll make tea later." ”

Magpie clutched his chest, "It's really not good, the slave saw me when I went to the kitchen just now, and I saw that the lady was coming." ”

"Madame, which lady?" Fu Mingxian didn't react for a while.

Quezhi stepped forward to take away the tea book in Fu Mingxian's hand and pulled her arm, "My young lady, which other lady can it be, of course your own mother is here." ”

"Hurry up and go with the slave to see what the hell is going on!"

He Zhixiu?

Fu Mingxian's heart chuckled, and she hurriedly followed Magpie to Fu Zhou's door.

"Mama Xu, but my mother is here?" Fu Mingxian's voice was anxious, looking at Mama Xu who was guarding the door and asked.

Mama Xu smiled and nodded, "The old lady took the lady over today, and asked the young lady to wait outside first, she is talking to your mother at this moment." ”

"Miss Magpie, probably your young lady will be taken home by Mrs. Fu in a while, you should hurry up and pack your things!"

Magpie nodded in surprise and ran back happily.

Although Fu Mingxian nodded in agreement, she was worried.

Fu Zhou's shouldn't hurt his mother, right?

He Zhixiu has a kind personality and is too gentle, how can he be Fu Zhou's opponent.

Fu Mingxian has been wandering outside nervously, and her eyes are looking into the house from time to time, even if she can't see anything.

After a while, the closed door suddenly opened, and He Zhixiu came out of it intact.

Fu Mingxian breathed a sigh of relief, "Mother, you're okay." ”

"Mother?"

But suddenly saw He Zhixiu's reddish eyes, obviously crying just now, Fu Mingxian asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, the old lady said let me take you home. He Zhixiu smiled.

"Really?" Fu Mingxian frowned.

He Zhixiu nodded again, "Really, the carriages are waiting outside, let's go!"

Mama Xu also reminded her appropriately, "The old lady said that you don't have to say goodbye to her." ”

Fu Mingxian's steps were stunned, and she looked at Fu Zhou's courtyard with complicated eyes, and she couldn't tell the taste in her heart.

From the moment she was forcibly brought to Fu Guogong's Mansion by Fu Yu, she kept thinking about how she could leave unscathed.

But when it really came to this time, she was a little reluctant.

Fu Zhou's let her leave so easily?

It really is.

Will it be a farewell after leaving like this?

The tip of Fu Mingxian's nose was slightly sour, and she watched Mama Xu enter the door, and then closed Fu Zhou's door, "Let's go, mother." ”
