Cui Shi had no choice but to coax Mingzhu: "Okay, okay, you stay." Even so, he quietly asked people to inquire with Mama Zheng, Su Lan and others, but they didn't ask anything, so they knew that the little couple was really awkward, and Mingzhu also released Zhou Nushi.

It's not good to let people go to the king to ask, Mingzhu is obviously unwilling to tell the truth, so he can only wait until the men come home to discuss. Cui Shi sighed, forced a smile to greet Fu Mingcheng's father and daughter, and asked Fu Zifei: "I heard that you went to Beijing with the daughter of the Li family, the commander of the soldiers and horses in Zhongcheng, on the way?" ”

Fu Zifei smiled and said: "Exactly, that Miss Li is a bold and righteous person, we were in a hurry on the road, and one night we missed a place to rest, it was she who let the servants of the family vacate two rooms for us to live in, and I heard that we were going to enter Beijing, so she came with us." He took the opportunity to make a request to Cui's family: "I promised to invite her to come over to play after I stayed, I wonder if it is convenient?" ”

is a smart person, this Fu Zifei came all the way from Jiangnan, not only did he not show timidity, but he also expanded his interpersonal communication early. If you enter the palace in the future, you will definitely not lose to Min Baoyun.

Cui Shi nodded secretly: "Of course it's convenient, when you settle down and the people settle down, I'll ask your aunt to pick a date, find a name, invite people who are good friends with our family to come over and play, and let you get to know them." No matter where you are, you need a few more friends. ”

Fu Zifei went to hug Mingzhu's arm again to express his closeness: "Will my aunt come too?" ”

Mingzhu has no objection to Fu Zifei being close to her, no matter what the Empress Dowager thinks, Fu Zifei is better than a stupid person if he is a smart person, and in the end, it is better to be connected by blood than an outsider. This face, of course, she wants to make for Fu Zifei: "I will definitely come!" ”

Fu Zifei was satisfied, smiling and smiling, and wittily told everyone about her experience along the way, and shaped her father Fu Mingcheng into a silly and loyal person.

Fu Mingcheng didn't speak, just listened to his daughter with a smile on the side, looking really stupid and loyal.

However, none of the people in Fu Xiangfu would believe that Fu Mingcheng was really stupid and loyal, if he was really stupid and loyal, the Empress Dowager would not choose him; If he was really stupid and loyal, he wouldn't hide it from everyone, quietly hit the road in advance, and suddenly entered the capital.

Only Fu Mingqing really felt that this cousin from Jiangnan was an elegant person, and he dragged him there to talk lively, and couldn't wait to introduce him to his fox friends and dogs, and praised Haikou: "So-and-so said that he is the second genius in the capital, this time my brother is here, how can I squeeze him down!" Look at him and dare to call himself second. ”

Mingzhu was drinking water, and almost squirted out when she heard the words. This third brother is really a fool, how can he be so boastful? You need to know that the one who is known as the first talent in Beijing is his old man, even if Fu Mingcheng is the second, he is still inferior to him, is he praising people or boasting? If you think about it more, you can't think that he is running on people.

Ai Shi hated that iron could not become steel, blushed, and complained in a low voice: "Your third brother is stupid." "I was afraid that Fu Mingqing would be stupid, so I was busy asking my personal girl Dongmei to come over and remind him.

Sure enough, Fu Mingcheng was curious: "Who is the first?" ”

Dongmei reminded Fu Mingqing under the pretense of pouring tea, Fu Mingqing felt embarrassed and inappropriate, touched his head and pretended to be stupid: "I don't know, no one has ever been convinced by anyone in this first, it's him today, I don't know who it is tomorrow, this time my brother is here, it should be the first, stable first." ”

Fu Mingcheng said modestly: "Don't dare, don't dare." But he didn't say he couldn't.

It seems that this cousin is very confident in his talent, and the Empress Dowager has really found a powerful opponent for Fu Xiangfu. Mingzhu took a wrong look, and saw Fu Ming standing at the door of the flower hall looking here, as if he was about to flee immediately, so he greeted him loudly: "Fourth brother, come and see your cousin and cousin's nephew!" ”

Fu Ming is the most annoying of these relationships, he just quietly came to observe the father and daughter, and he didn't want to have a relationship with them, but he was drunk by Mingzhu, he couldn't leave, so he had to walk in without smiling, gave Fu Mingcheng a salute, and accepted Fu Zifei's gift, and took out a jade pendant from his arms and gave it to Fu Zifei as a meeting gift.

It is common for elders to give gifts to juniors who meet for the first time, Fu Zifei was surprised when she saw the jade pendant, although she quickly covered it up, Cui Shi still did not let go of this scene, and said with a smile: "Zifei, what's wrong?" ”

Fu Zifei wanted to speak and stopped, and finally said cautiously: "I am looking at the fourth uncle's jade pendant very familiar, but I am mistaken." ”

Cui Shi looked at Fu Mingzheng, Fu Zifei is a little girl, raised in the boudoir since childhood, how could she feel familiar when she saw a piece of jade pendant casually? It is clear that he knows who the real owner of this jade pendant is, but it is difficult to say, so he said tactfully that he was wrong.

Fu Mingzheng said frankly: "That's right, this is what I won on the street just now." Because I didn't have good things on my body, I couldn't take out a meeting gift, and I was afraid that my niece would say that I was stingy, so I felt that this jade was not bad, so I made a meeting gift for my niece. ”

Fu Zifei became more and more surprised, and gave Fu Mingzheng a formal salute, and said: "I want to ask the fourth uncle for forgiveness, this jade pendant is very similar to the jade pendant of a friend of my niece, this friend is kind to me, I can't help but ask the fourth uncle to tell me the origin of this jade." ”

Fu Mingzheng won a jade pendant in a bet with someone on the street, the owner of this jade pendant is still a girl? Mingzhu suddenly became interested, and then coaxed: "Fourth brother, you didn't do anything to others, did you?" ”

Fu Zifei really looked at Fu Mingzheng vigilantly, as if he had already regarded him as a bad person.

Fu Mingzheng didn't care what Fu Zifei's father and daughter thought of him, so he just looked at Mingzhu with a smile and said, "Why not, she was forced by me to jump the moat." ”

"Ahh Fu Zifei stood up in a gaffe, and was so anxious that she was about to question Fu Mingzheng, Fu Mingcheng swept a glance in her slanted stab, she sat down again, and said innocently with a smile: "Fourth Uncle is really joking, and the sister of the Li family has no enmity with you, how could you force her to jump the moat?" ”

Fu Mingzheng didn't like Fu Zifei's type very much, and he chuckled mischievously: "I'm not joking, my niece probably doesn't know my notoriety." Who said you have to have a grudge to force someone to jump the moat? Otherwise, how did this jade pendant come about? ”

Fu Zifei is so young that no matter how much she has her eyes, she can't resist Fu Mingzheng's vicious coldness, so she immediately shrank back and choked with tears: "Sister Li, did she really jump into the river?" ”

Cui Shi couldn't stand it, and whispered to Fu Mingzheng: "Don't mess around, I'm scared of the child." What the hell is going on? ”
