  Chapter 1066 Knowing Blow

  Fu Tinghan hurriedly said no, "Nowadays the country is poor, and our wedding should not be extravagant, so the bride price and dowry should be as simple as possible, so as not to be followed by others and cause burdens to the people."

  Princess Hongnong: "Do you think you and Zhao Hanzhang have been able to influence national customs?"

Fu Tinghan frowned slightly, but his nervous heart gradually eased. He finally looked up at Princess Hongnong who was sitting opposite, and said calmly: "Of course, she is now the helm of the imperial court, and her words and deeds can guide the customs of the country and the people." In addition to her, the local customs are mostly for the people to imitate the virtuous old men and gentry, while the gentlemen and gentry often face the customs of the court."

  Princess Hongnong looked at him quietly, and said after a while: "I thought that after all these years of fighting, you finally learned to be softer, but I didn't expect it to be the same."

   Fu Xuan put down his teacup in displeasure, and Fu Tinghan and Princess Hongnong turned their heads to look at him quietly.

  Fu Xuandao: "Since the dowry has been decided, let's make an appointment with the two of us to meet. Please tell me the time of the Zhao family. Your mother and I will come to visit."

  Fu Tinghan slightly bent down to answer, and then the family of three fell silent again.

   To be honest, Fu Tinghan was in such an awkward and silent atmosphere for the first time in all these years since he came to this world.

  What Fu Tinghan didn't expect was that Princess Hongnong was the most comfortable among the three.

She didn't care about the silence of the father and son. She turned her head and looked out the door. After looking at the yard, she said, "Who usually takes care of this house? The branches are so ugly. This courtyard is the main hall, and it's actually in the flower garden Plant some wild flowers and weeds, how long has the rockery been cleared?"

  Fu Tinghan couldn't answer.

  Princess Hongnong frowned and asked, "Who is the butler? Let him talk back."

  Fu Tinghan doesn't have a housekeeper. He leaves these matters to Fu An. He didn't plan to live here for a long time, and tidying up the house is just for the convenience of the wedding.

   At that time, he was not sure whether he could invite Princess Hongnong and Fu Xuan back, so he didn't care at all.

  Of course Fu Tinghan couldn't push Fu An out, he just said: "The war is decided, I don't have anyone around me, I've been living outside, this time it's for the marriage, and... father and mother came back, that's why I asked people to clean up the house."

"It's just that people invited from outside are always a little unsatisfactory," Fu Tinghan said. Songyuan, other yards are locked, and even the garden is not taken care of."

   "I didn't think there was anything in the past, but seeing my father and mother today, I feel that this is not appropriate, so this mansion is handed over to my mother. If there is anything that needs to be modified, just ask someone to do it."

  Princess Hongnong narrowed her eyes slightly, and Fu Xuan couldn't help but look at his son again and again. Did he know that these words were full of loopholes and full of holes?

  Fu Xuan racked his brains to find excuses for him, but finally gave up and decided to get him away first, "It's getting late, we'll talk about these things later, we're tired from the journey, first..."

   "You want to live in the main courtyard?" Princess Hongnong ignored Fu Xuan, just stared at Fu Tinghan and asked quietly: "Which courtyard did you say I lived with your father?"

  Fu Tinghan looked puzzled, "Changsongyuan."

  He chose this name on purpose, implying longevity like a long pine, and Hanzhang also said that he got it well.

   Seeing his confused and innocent face, Princess Hongnong couldn't help but feel depressed for a while, thinking that he was just playing her, how could he not know what she meant by this question?

  Fu Tinghan didn't think there was anything wrong with his arrangement, but he still respected the elders' wishes and said, "If mother doesn't like Changsong Courtyard, she can choose another courtyard to live in."

   "Many courtyards and garden pavilions in this mansion have no names, you can arrange it according to your heart." Fu Tinghan didn't want to stay any longer, and wanted to find Zhao Hanzhang.

  Princess Hongnong was short of breath, but her self-esteem did not allow her to ask such a question in person, so she could only turn her head to look at Fu Xuan.

  Fu Xuan turned his head aside, avoiding her gaze.

  Princess Hongnong was depressed, so she could only endure her temper and asked Fu Tinghan: "How many servants are there in the mansion?"

  Fu Tinghan froze for a moment, then shook his head: "There is no servant."

   "What?" Princess Hongnong couldn't understand for a while.

Fu Tinghan explained: "I only have one Fu An by my side, but I can't put him in the mansion. I need him to accompany me by my side. The rest are my own soldiers. I can keep two things in the mansion. If my mother has something to do, I can take care of him." Let them do it."

   "Trust?" Princess Hongnong laughed angrily, and asked: "You are a Shangshuling, no, no, let alone the official position of Shangshuling, you are the eldest grandson of the Fu family, and you don't even have two servants around you?"

  Fu Tinghan sighed: "We got separated when we ran for our lives, and only Fu An has been following me."

  Even Fu Xuan couldn't help looking back at him, and asked, "Why don't you buy someone again?"

   "Why buy it?" Even after living here for five years, Fu Tinghan is still not used to some of the rules here, and still retains his modern habits, "I don't need servants."

  Princess Hongnong said sharply, "You don't need servants?"

  Fu Tinghan nodded firmly, "Fu An is enough."

  If Fu An hadn’t followed him all the time, in fact, he wouldn’t even need Fu An, because there are many things he can do by himself, and the soldiers around him can also do what he doesn’t want to do or can’t do.

  Zhao Hanzhang rarely uses his servants, and more often uses the soldiers around him.

   Among the servants, there is only one Tinghe that is used regularly.

  Seeing that Princess Hongnong's expression was wrong, Fu Tinghan couldn't understand the reason for her anger, and wanted to leave even more.

  He fidgeted restlessly, and finally got up obediently, "There is still something to do in Shangshu Province, I will go to deal with official business first, father and mother please go ahead."

   After saying a respectful salute, he left.

  Fu An, who was hiding outside, trotted to catch up with Fu Tinghan immediately after he came out, and followed Fu Tinghan out of the house step by step. He grabbed the horse from Shi Hongtu graciously, and for the first time wanted to help Fu Tinghan get on the horse.

  Fu Tinghan pushed his hand away, grabbed the pack saddle and jumped on the horse, sat still on the horse, and then looked down at him with an inexplicable expression, "What's wrong with you?"

  Fu An immediately approached the horse, looked up at Fu Tinghan eagerly, "Mr. Da Lang, you really don't know?"

  Fu Tinghan looked at him silently.

   Yes, it seems that Mr. Lang really doesn't understand.

  Fu An said with a bitter face: "According to etiquette and reason, the princess and the son-in-law should live in the main courtyard."

  Fu Tinghan frowned, "This mansion was given to me by the imperial court, not to them. Shouldn't the main courtyard be the householder's residence?"

  Fu An blinked, it seemed that he was right.

   In Fu Tinghan's ignorance, Princess Hongnong gave a blow;

   Fu Tinghan was innocent, and Princess Hongnong hit her heart...
