When Zhu Youning returned home, Li Tuobei happened to come to the house with fresh venison for dinner.

When he saw Zhu Youning, he smiled and said, "Didn't you say you liked to eat this last time you went home, I got it again." ”

Zhu Youning smiled and said, "Great, thank you Brother Bei." ”

"Thank you, you can eat more later. How good it was when I was a child, but now I'm as thin as a toothpick. ”

Zhu Youning looked down at herself, thinking that she would only worry if she was round now.

Li Tuobei handed over the venison to Mama Cui, and then saluted Zhu Huating and the Bai family first.

A few people chatted for a while, Li Tuobei was not an outsider, so Zhu Huating asked Zhu Youning in person: "What is your grandfather looking for you to do?" ”

Zhu Youning was upright, and took out the invitation card to Zhu Huating to see.

"It's Uncle Yan who is getting married, and the next post invites me to go to the capital for a wedding wine."

Zhu Huating took the post and looked at it, frowned and said: "Time is so tight, it is actually set in the wax moon?" However, it may be something that the Holy God has promised, so let's do it in a hurry. ”

Zhu Youning put away the post noncommittally, "Who knows." I never thought that Uncle Yan would become an uncle, and now he has to marry the daughter of Jiang Ge's hometown. ”

"Whose house are you talking about? Jiang Ge's hometown? Li Tuobei raised his thick eyebrows, and his expression was a little strange.

Zhu Youning nodded and said, "Yes, Jiang Ge's hometown." ”

Li Tuobei shook his head: "How did this marriage come about?" Why did you choose the Jiang family? ”

Zhu Youning has always known that Li Tuobei is well-informed, don't look at him living in a corner, but he knows some about the big and small things in the court, and even asked: "What, is there something wrong with the Jiang family, or is there something wrong with Miss Jiang?" ”

"Fu Ya'er!" The Bai family glanced at Zhu Youning, "Uncle and the relatives of the old family of the pavilion, what are you doing when you ask so much!" ”

Zhu Youning glanced at Li Tuobei helplessly, and said, "Isn't this talking behind closed doors, and I didn't ask anything." I'm going to the capital, and I have to know these things. ”

Bai frowned with some dislike: "You are getting older now, and you are not a child, you should pay attention to these things, and the uncle is too, why did you invite a girl to go to the capital?" What kind of system does it become! ”

When Zhu Youning heard Bai's nagging, he couldn't help frowning helplessly.

Over the years, the conditions of the family have improved, and the Bai family has gained a lot of fun and self-confidence from teaching Brother Zhuang'er, and the temper of being the housewife of the family behind closed doors is also good.

Especially when she grew up and still had to go to home school to study like a man, Bai was already disliked.

In Bai's heart, the girl should stay with her mother to learn the female red feed, and she doesn't take the top prize, what to learn the Four Books and Five Classics, as long as she can recognize the words and not be blind, it is enough.

Now that she is going to the capital, the Bai family naturally disagrees even more.

Zhu Youning is not good at arguing with the Bai family in person.

Instead, Zhu Huating said in a deep voice: "Okay, you don't have to ask about your daughter." ”

Bai said unhappily: "I'm a mother, why can't I ask about my daughter?" ”

"If you ask about your daughter, can you ask about the things outside? Our daughter is different from ordinary daughters, if you are a mother, don't add another burden to your children. ”

Zhu Huating's voice was slow and coherent, but every word was loud.

Bai wanted to argue with Zhu Huating for a few words, but Li Tuobei was present, and she felt that it was not good to distinguish between Zhu Youning, so she only pursed her lips and pulled the ignorant Zhuang brother to the back room.

Seeing that the Bai family was gone, Zhu Huating said to Zhu Youning: "Your mother can't think about these things, you don't have to care too much." I turned around and slowly talked to her. But if you're going to the capital this time, why should you bring some decent gifts? ”

Zhu Youning smiled and said, "I know." I'll prepare these. ”

After a while, it was said that the food was ready.

The family got up and went to the side hall to eat.

Li Tuobei and Zhu Youning walked behind Zhu Huating, and at an angle that others could not see, they squeezed their eyes at Zhu Youning and made a grimace.

Zhu Youning laughed at his funny appearance, and his depression disappeared.

Zhu Youning was not angry with the Bai family, but felt that this kind of ideological collision made her a little helpless. After all, Bai is still a traditional ancient woman, and it is difficult to accept that a woman goes out to do business and shows up. And Zhu Huating may not agree. It's just that as a father, Zhu Huating thinks about the debt to his daughter, and now he always feels that his daughter's food and clothing are his daughter's, and in turn, he asks his daughter too much and can't open his mouth.

Only Zhu Youning herself knows that she is not a person who can be content with embroidering in the inner house, and when she reaches the age of being blindfolded and marrying a stranger with her parents' arrangement.

If you live that kind of life, it is better to take all the initiative in your own hands.

When the meal was finished, it was already dark, Li Tuobei got up to say goodbye, and Zhu Youning naturally got up to see him off.

After leaving the hospital, Li Tuobei said in a low voice: "That only daughter of Jiang Ge's hometown is not very good outside, and she is said to have a very romantic personality. ”

Zhu Youning was stunned, "Merry? She is a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, how can she be romantic? ”

Li Tuobei said in a low voice: "Why can't you be romantic before you leave the cabinet?" Her father is an important minister appreciated by the saint, and the brothers in her family are all well mixed, the only daughter of the Jiang family's illustrious family, it is an exaggeration to say that she is more blessed than Princess Fu'an today, but if it is easier than the princesses of the first emperor's time, it is true, it is said that this Miss Jiang especially likes to intersect with good-looking men, and it is normal for Uncle Yan to look like that, and it is normal for Uncle Yan to enter her eyes. ”

Zhu Youning's big eyes widened in surprise, he couldn't imagine that ancient women had been so strong. I don't know if the rumors are true or not.

When Li Tuobei saw Zhu Youning's appearance, like a soft and cute cat, he couldn't help but chuckle out loud, and said, "Go back to the capital and help bring me a few gifts." I have also prepared the gift money in advance, and I bother you to bring it with you. ”

Zhu Youning nodded and asked, "It's a good acquaintance, why don't Brother Bei go with me." It's also good to relax. ”

Li Tuobei's eyes lit up, then dimmed again, and sighed: "I want to go, but unfortunately I can't go." ”

After many years of getting along, although Zhu Youning didn't know Li Tuobei's identity, he also knew some things about him, such as that he had never left since he came to Fuyang.

Even she went to Hangzhou several times, but Li Tuobei was like a bird in a cage and did not leave Fuyang.

Not only that, although he was studying, he was reading the Dharma in a messy way, because he never participated in the imperial examination.

Although he is learning martial arts and the art of war, he is almost twenty years old, and he has not seen anyone to arrange his future, let alone walk by himself.

He couldn't go through the career of studying literature, he couldn't go to the army to learn martial arts, and no one even mentioned the matter of marrying. Even Zhu Yanfeng has an eldest son, but Li Tuobei is still single.
