Chapter 330 Don’t deceive me sincerely

The wedding banquet is still going on.

Zhu Youtang left, and Zhang Zhou, Xu Qiong and others respectfully escorted him out of the door. Then the main officials in the court also began to leave one after another.

Tang Yin and Zhang Lun greeted the remaining guests, and Zhang Zhou, as the groom, entered the wedding room before sunset.

The red candle had been lit long ago, and Lin Yi was wearing a phoenix crown... Although she knew very well that she was just Zhang Zhouna's concubine, but she was a concubine, and she had understood the difference between concubines since she was a child. At least she was In terms of mentality, it is much better to be a concubine than the daughter of a wealthy family.

Zhang Zhou walked into the room.

The maids and all have already exited the door.

Lin Yi may have heard footsteps coming in, and knowing who it was, her behavior became obviously much more nervous.

Zhang Zhou walked over and took off her hijab.

The second concubinage was much grander than the previous one. Even the emperor came in person, which was considered as giving Lin Yi enough face.

Lin Yi widened her eyes and raised her head to look at Zhang Zhou. It felt like she was not facing her husband, but like her student... Zhang Zhou almost wanted to say, Hello, teacher.

"Well, I drank a few more drinks, so..." Zhang Zhou wanted to lighten the atmosphere at the scene.

Lin Yi stood up and walked aside. It seemed that she wanted to fulfill her duties as a wife, so that she could prepare a basin for her and fill it with water for Zhang Zhou to apply on his face and other things.

Zhang Zhou smiled and said, "No, I have a good drinking capacity. I don't feel drunk at all today. But for some reason, coming into this room and seeing you made me a little tipsy."

Lin Yi said: "Could it be that wine has a strong stamina?"

When she turned around and noticed Zhang Zhou's burning gaze, she finally began to act like a little girl.

Zhang Zhou sighed: "Originally, I said that I should pick up the bride at Chen time today, but your father-in-law said that the auspicious time chosen was after noon, but I always hear some bad opinions outside. How can anyone marry a wife after noon? But this person, your father, Too stubborn."

"I...I don't understand." Of course Lin Yi didn't understand.

In fact, when choosing a good day and auspicious time, he usually chooses it in the morning. Maybe Lin Han himself doesn't care too much.

Zhang Zhou pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed. When he wanted to take action again, he found that Lin Yi looked like a piece of wood carving, or rather like a lump of wood. He didn't know where to start with this whole piece of wood.

Zhang Zhou thought to himself, isn't this too inactive?

"that……"

When Zhang Zhouyi opened the topic and wanted to extend his hand, Lin Yi immediately turned his head, as if he wanted to listen to what he said seriously.

Then Zhang Zhou didn't know how to start.

Zhang Zhouxin said, it’s not like you can’t say “Don’t look at me, okay?” This female gentleman, today is your wedding day, can you please stop being so rigid all the time? This is not conducive to friendly communication.

"Ms. Lin, from now on, you and I are a family. We will also change our names from now on. I'll just call you Xiaoyi... No." Zhang Zhouyi thought, why is this title so weird?

"In this way, I call you Yi'er."

Still weird.

Zhang Zhou found out that no matter how he called his girlfriend Lin Yi, it was hard to pronounce.

I still don’t know how comfortable it is to be called “Ms. Lin”.

Lin Yi just looked at Zhang Zhou talking to himself, and she said: "My mother once called me Xiaoqi."

Zhang Zhou asked: "Is your family doing seven?"

Lin Yi shook his head: "I have a brother and a sister above me, Xing Wu. I don't know why they are called like this."

"Oh, that's good." Zhang Zhou said, "I also call you that, and I only call you that in the boudoir. In the yard, others may call you Fourth Madam or Young Madam."

When it came to the boudoir address, Lin Yi finally felt a little shy.

Taking advantage of Lin Yi's blushing face, Zhang Zhou felt that the time was finally ripe. Wasn't the purpose of talking about his girlfriend's name just to open Lin Yi's inner defense line?

Seeing the opportunity coming, Zhang Zhou naturally wanted to climb up the pole. His hand had already fallen to Lin Yi's waist, but before he could touch the belt, he heard Lin Yi say seriously: "There is a booklet explaining what to do today, let me

have a look."

"Don't mention it." Zhang Zhou said slightly disappointed, "Now it's time to set the rules for you. From now on, you have to call me master. Speaking of your master, I have rich experience. Even if I am not a leader, I am still an expert. What's wrong with you?

Wherever I understand...just let me do it myself."

Lin Yi is indeed the kind of strict character.

Zhang Zhou thought to himself that it was Lin Han's ancient family education atmosphere that had harmed this pretty girl. How could she not know how to read a book on her wedding day?

"Um."

After Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, she nodded with a very serious attitude.

I mean, agreed.

Zhang Zhou smiled and said: "Then let's follow the steps, the first step, the second step, the third step... step by step. I said Xiaoqi, don't be so rigid in everything we do. Look at me, I'm such a free and easy person.

People can easily be led into ditches by you... Speaking of which, the first step is to... undress and go to bed."

…

…

Candles shed tears.

It was late at night, and the two red candles had long been burned out. There was a knock on the door from the maid outside, probably to come in and change the candles.

In ordinary homes, when the host and hostess are resting, there are always maids waiting by their side.

But people like Zhang Zhou... don't like to be stared at when they do something.

Until very late, there was no sound of sticks and drums beating outside. Zhang Zhou went to pick up the candles himself. When he came back, it was still a little cold, and even Lin Yi had to lean closer to him to change.

Get some snuggling warmth.

"Didn't your father say that he would give you a maid or something?" Zhang Zhou asked.

"No." Lin Yi answered simply, her voice as strong as ever and like a female gentleman, "Father said that after he asked me to come over, he should take more care of himself."

Stingy.

Zhang Zhou suddenly felt that being born in that kind of traditional Confucian family was not a good thing.

But Lin Han has nothing to show off, right?

Zhang Zhou was also thinking, although his father-in-law is old, he still has a brother-in-law and a sister-in-law who are not yet born. This old man Lin...

"I'll give you a thousand guan of money and some gold and silver jewelry. Save some money." Zhang Zhou said, "I'm an official in the court and won't come back every day. I'll find you two maids to accompany you, someone who knows how to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

In addition to taking care of your daily life, I also accompany you to relieve your boredom."

Lin Yi was silent.

She didn't understand what this meant.

Zhang Zhou said again: "From now on, just keep a normal mind in the backyard. From now on, the reading and literacy of the girls at home will depend entirely on you."

Lin Yi remained silent.

Zhang Zhou suddenly thought about how he was suddenly brought into the master's rhythm by Lin Yi. This was not good.

"It's time to cheer up...the second half begins."

"Well!"

One red candle wasn't enough, but it didn't matter. If the living environment hadn't allowed it, he might not have planned to leave the room for three days and three nights.

He himself was thinking that this petty bourgeoisie life was still very corrosive to people's hearts.

…

…

October is coming to an end.

It has snowed twice in succession in the capital, and the weather has become suddenly cold. You must wrap yourself up in three layers when going out.

There was still little progress in the war in Liaodong. As a member of the Shangting Department, Zhang Zhou not only walked around his home and workshop every day, but also frequently went in and out of the palace to attend meetings of the inner court.

When Zhang Zhou arrived at Qianqing Palace that day, Li Dongyang and Xiao Jing had been waiting for him for a long time. Zhang Mao also fell ill after winter and did not come that day.

The two night owls Xiao Jing and Li Dongyang were also responsible for the duties of the listening office. Anyway, Zhang Zhou didn't have to stay in the palace at night.

"Bingkuan, I just got the news. We passed Juyongguan on Zhijie the day before yesterday. We were supposed to return to Beijing early this morning, but I thought we were delayed because of the snow on the road... We should arrive later."

When Zhu Youtang saw Zhang Zhoulai, his attitude immediately changed from talking about business matters to talking about private matters.

Li Dongyang glanced at Zhang Zhou, probably feeling unhappy at the treatment Zhang Zhou received.

Zhang Zhou said: "After Anbianhou returns to Beijing, the Yanwu Hall can officially start teaching. It is also necessary to teach the storage and safekeeping of new cannons in winter."

"Okay." Zhu Youtang nodded with satisfaction, "It's rare that you don't forget official matters."

Li Dongyang felt that the emperor praised Zhang Zhou too much, which was against the way of getting along with kings and ministers. He said: "Your Majesty, Lu Wan, the governor of Liaodong, has led his troops northward for more than ten days, but he still hasn't seen him fighting with Duoyan or the little Tatar prince. Ningxia The Tatar raiding troops from all directions have also withdrawn one after another. Should we withdraw our troops to prepare for another battle next year?"

Zhu Youtang said: "I have paid special attention to it. Although there are two snows in Gyeonggi this year, it has not snowed in Liaodong yet. It should not hinder the march of soldiers and horses."
