"Niangzi" was originally a folk name for a newlywed woman. Later, it mostly referred to a married woman, and sometimes it also referred to a girl in a boudoir. For example, the Five Classics call Dugu Lanxi "Dugu Niangzi" and "Dugu Da Niangzi".

This is also why Four Virtues call Hua Fushu ‘Hua Niang Zi’.

However, Hua Fushu thought it was a bit unpleasant to hear, and 'Hua Niangzi' sounded like the Hua Niang from Qin Lou Chu Pavilion.

Sanqiao obviously knew that Hua Fushu was unhappy. He walked down the steps and went over to Side and said, "My girl doesn't like this title. Please don't call my girl that way in the future."

Side was slightly dissatisfied, but when Ye Zelin looked over, Side changed his words and respectfully called "Second Young Madam."

Unexpectedly, Hua Fushu was still unhappy and gave Side an annoyed look.

Ye Zelin walked out, and Side moved a square stool from the back of the car and put it under the car.

Hua Fushu also came over. Ye Zelin got on the carriage first. He did not enter the car, but was at the front of the car. He stretched out his hand to pull Hua Fushu, "Sister Fushu."

Hua Fushu looked at Ye Zelin. Others might think that Ye Zelin was elegant and a gentleman, but she felt that Ye Zelin was very pretentious and pretentious.

She pushed Ye Zelin's hand away with her hand, raised her chin, and was slightly provocative. Ye Zelin didn't mind at all, smiled faintly, and entered the car.

Hua Fushu wanted to make Ye Zelin angry, but Ye Zelin didn't care at all. He immediately lowered his face, stepped on the stool, and got on the carriage. Unexpectedly, his foot on the stool hit the hem of his skirt, and his whole body leaned forward.

Sanqiao, with sharp eyes and quick hands, grabbed Hua Fushu.

Side couldn't help but chuckle at the corners of his lips.

Sanqiao calmed down Hua Fushu, and then got into the carriage with Hua Fushu.

Side put the square stool back behind the car, got on the front of the car, drove the horse, and the carriage drove away slowly.

In the car, Ye Zelin sat on the right side of the carriage, while Hua Fushu sat opposite him. On the left side of the carriage, Sanqiao was beside Hua Fushu.

The two of them were relatively silent, and Hua Fushu annoyed Ye Zelin again. Ye Zelin kept smiling, but Hua Fushu didn't get the reaction he wanted, so he simply turned his head away, just like a young couple who were having an quarrel.

There was a grid in the carriage, just under the seat. Ye Zelin opened the grid, took out a book with a blue paper cover, unfolded a certain page and held it in his hand, looking at it intently and seriously.

Hua Fushu turned around and couldn't help but glance at it. There were three big characters written on the blue paper cover, Tao Te Ching.

The Tao Te Ching discusses self-cultivation, governance, military use, health care, etc. Ye Zelin came from a family of generals, so she did not find it strange to read this book. When she was young, her father taught her, but she was naughty and only had a partial understanding of it. If she was asked to recite the whole book, she could do it, but if she was asked to explain the meaning, she might not be able to explain it.

When her father was teaching her, he said that his favorite was the chapter "The Supreme Good Is Like Water."

When she was studying with her master, he also taught her the Tao Te Ching and the chapter "The Supreme Good Is Like Water." The master once said, "A doctor's duty is to save lives, heal the wounded, and get rid of diseases. However, kindness is the foundation of human beings, and it is also the purpose of medicine." This is how benevolent doctors are. If doctors are unkind, they are not qualified to be doctors, let alone human beings."

Recalling the past, Hua Fushu thought silently in her heart: The best good is like water. Water is good for all things without fighting. It is disliked by everyone, so it is close to the Tao. Live in a good place, have a good heart, be kind and benevolent, speak good faith, govern well, do good things, and act at good times. The husband does not fight, so there is no need for you.

After reciting it silently, Hua Fushu looked at Ye Zelin and asked, "Which article are you reading?"

Ye Zelin raised his star eyes and was stunned for a moment before replying: "The Greatest Goodness Is Like Water, has sister Fu Shu also read this book?"

Hua Fushu said: "It is virtue for a woman to have no talent. How could I have read that book? Unlike my second brother, you are very knowledgeable and talented. Not only have I not read "The Rules for Women" and "The Rules for Women", I can't even write. .”

Ye Zelin was quite surprised. He turned back to the Tao Te Ching and said, "Sister Fushu is illiterate? Who wrote the cancellation of engagement letter last time?"

Hua Fushu smiled and said: "No need to say it, it is naturally a skill." It was just dictated by her.

Ye Zelin thought for a while and commented: "The handwriting is beautiful and the writing is strong, Sanqiao." He looked at Sanqiao carefully and then said, "It's a good name. He has a skillful person and a skillful hand."

Sanqiao blushed immediately. Apart from Hua Fushu and Senior Brother Qin, Ye Zelin was the first stranger to praise her.

Hua Fushu looked at her, and Sanqiao straightened his face.

The Ye family has a separate courtyard, also in the south of the city, but a little remote and in a secluded place.

This villa is not big, consisting of two or three courtyards.

The carriage slowly stopped and Side got off the front of the carriage. Ye Zelin got off next and looked up at the tall gate in front of him.

Sanqiao went down first, and Hua Fushu was the last one.

Seeing Ye Zelin looking at the door, Hua Fushu walked over and stood beside him and asked, "Ye Zelin, what are you looking at?"

Ye Zelin immediately withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "It's nothing, let's go."

Hua Fushu was not interested in asking anymore. She just wanted to meet Ye Zelin's grandfather as soon as possible, say hello, and go have a happy life.

The capital was so big, so prosperous, and there were so many fun places. She didn't want to stay in the General's Mansion all day. The most important thing was that she didn't want to be under the same roof as Ye Zelin.

Ye Zelin walked forward, and Hua Fushu followed him. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the boy guarding the door. The boy said: "Second Young Master, you know that the old general will not allow you to enter this door. Please don’t make things difficult for the villain.”

Ye Zelin said: "Then please tell your grandfather that I am here with my wife to say hello."

The young man looked at Hua Fushu, his eyes lit up with surprise, and he quickly bowed and apologized. However, he still did not agree to let Ye Zelin enter the courtyard. Instead, he asked Ye Zelin to wait outside, and he went in to report to the old man. General.

Seeing the young man entering, Hua Fushu became more and more curious. She knew that the old general had a quarrel with Ye Shiheng, so he moved to another courtyard. As for why Ye Shiheng had a quarrel with his father, she didn't know.

She asked: "Ye Zelin, isn't this the first time you have been turned away? It seems that your relationship with your grandfather is not very good."

Ye Zelin told Hua Fushu, "You don't need to worry about this. When I see my grandfather later, if he asks anything, just answer him. You don't have to say too much, and you can't be disrespectful to my grandfather."

He thought for a while and then said, "If there is something inappropriate in my grandfather's words, please help my sister, please bear with me for now, okay?"

Hua Fushu pursed her lips, looking really pitiful, "I'm just meeting your grandfather, why do you have to be so apologetic? Can he still be a cannibal?"

Ye Zelin couldn't help laughing when he saw her appearance, but he didn't say much and waited quietly outside the door.

Hua Fushu waited for a while, but no one came out. She complained to Ye Zelin, and Ye Zelin had to ask her to wait a little longer.

Hua Fushu was very bored. He walked to the side and leaned against the column, folding his arms. Sanqiao was beside Hua Fushu.

After about a quarter of an hour, a few people finally came into the courtyard.
