Chapter 68 Don't Waste
“Marquis Fu’an is extremely powerful and a renowned master in the Ming Dynasty.

Why do you need help even to walk now?"

Cui Shuyun doesn't care about Zhu Chengwu, but she can't stand Zhu Chengwu teasing her maid Xiaowei.

Although Cui Shuyun and Xiaowei were not close before, she once suspected that Xiaowei was involved in her sudden fall into the water.

But after the misunderstanding was resolved and in the subsequent journeys, Xiaowei was always the first to fight for her. Deep down in her heart, Cui Shuyun regarded Xiaowei as an extremely important person in her life.

Marquis Fu'an is not a good man, so how can Cui Shujun tolerate Zhu Chengwu flirting with Xiaowei?

"Don't you know that your husband is seriously injured?

It's normal for a seriously injured husband to need someone to support him.
Or are you feeling unhappy that your husband praised Xiaowei but not you?

Or is it that the wife is unhappy that her husband was seriously injured and could not perform his duties as a husband on his wedding night?

The conditions and requirements that Madam had put forward before, could they not be the opposite requirements? "

Zhu Chengwu didn't understand why Cui Shuyun suddenly got angry and spoke against him.

But it was just a quarrel. How could Zhu Chengwu, who had the memory of his past life, be afraid of Cui Shuyun, a little native?

What's more, Cui Shuyun, a native, was a lady from a wealthy family who never left the house.

The Virgin Kung Fu only requires that Zhu Chengwu cannot lose his virginity with a real sword or gun!
There is no requirement for Zhu Chengwu to live like a stone, not even to talk nonsense!

Although Zhu Chengwu usually speaks and acts in a serious and selfless manner in order to restrain his inner desires and physical instincts.

But as the saying goes, it is better to unblock than to block!
Zhu Chengwu would still get a little crazy from time to time and talk nonsense.

"you…"

Zhu Chengwu’s words made Cui Shuyun so angry that her face turned red!
And the more Zhu Chengwu spoke, the angrier Cui Shuyun became.

Cui Shuyun didn't expect that the famous Marquis Fu'an, who only had "Fire Lotus" in his eyes when they first met, would have such a side of him.

It is true that people cannot be judged by appearance, and sea water cannot be measured.

However, Cui Shuyun, who was born into a wealthy family, did not have any talent for quarreling and bickering.

Cui Shuyun, who was extremely angry, could only stand up and point her finger at Zhu Chengwu. The only word that came out of her mouth was "you~", and there was no follow-up.

"Miss, the Marquis was just joking!
"My Lord, please stop talking! Look how angry you have made the young lady!"

In the end, it was Xiaowei who stepped forward and acted as a peacemaker.

Xiaowei really deserves the name of "carefree".

When we met for the first time, I was so scared of Zhu Chengwu that I didn't dare to say a word the whole time.

Now he dares to "order" Zhu Chengwu.

Or maybe, in her heart, Cui Shuyun is too important.

Looking at the furious Cui Shuyun, let Xiao Wei Wuxia "scare" Zhu Chengwu again!

When Chunhua and the servants entered the room with food, they saw Zhu Chengwu and Cui Shujun sitting on each side of the table without saying a word to each other. Xiaowei was standing next to Cui Shujun with an anxious look on her face.

"really…"

Chunhua thought to herself, "As expected!" Then she relaxed and directed the servants to place food in front of Zhu Chengwu and Cui Shuyun respectively.

There was a clear line in the middle, so that Zhu Chengwu and Cui Shuyun's food would not cross or mix at all.

Looking at the medicinal food in front of him, Zhu Chengwu nodded with satisfaction, and then began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

“Eat like this!
I'll eat you to death!"

Looking at Zhu Chengwu chewing the food in big mouthfuls, Cui Shuyun cursed in her heart and suddenly felt that she was hungry too!

After today's wedding ceremony, Zhu Chengwu didn't eat anything, and neither did Cui Shuyun.

Zhu Chengwu is hungry!
The same goes for Cui Shuyun!
As for what many brides do during the wedding, they secretly eat some fruits and vegetables when no one is paying attention...

Cui Shuyun wanted to, but there was a "Xiao Wei" by her side!

Cui Shuyun is the bride, and if she wants to have an affair, it is inconvenient for her to do it by herself, so she needs the help of her maid Xiaowei.

But Xiaowei had no intention of letting Cui Shuyun cheat on her.

According to Xiaowei, for a small family like this, it's nothing for the bride to eat a little secretly, and it's no big deal if she's discovered.

But Cui Shuyun married into the Fu'an Marquisate.

If the bride Cui Shuyun was caught eating at the wedding, not only would the Fu'an Marquisate be embarrassed, but even the Cui family would be laughed at for not being able to educate their daughter.

Therefore, Xiaowei firmly opposed Cui Shuyun's cheating.

In the end, despite Xiaowei's earnest advice and strict precautions, Cui Shuyun did not gain anything from the entire wedding.

Now, how can I not be hungry?

In the end, Cui Shuyun no longer cared about competing with Zhu Chengwu, and turned into a fanatic who showed off her food, quickly stuffing the food in front of her into her cherry mouth.

One received a royal education, while the other had the etiquette of a wealthy family ingrained into his bones.

Plus the men are handsome and the women are beautiful.

Although he was showing off his fandom crazily, he didn't give people a rude feeling at all.

Instead, it makes the onlookers feel an inexplicable sense of beauty!

"So full!
The chef of the Fu'an Marquis's Mansion is amazing!"

After a while, Cui Shuyun, who was full and satisfied, put down her bowl and chopsticks in satisfaction, and secretly gave thumbs up to the chefs of Fu'an Marquis Mansion in her heart.

Seeing that only one third of the food in front of Cui Shuyun was missing, Zhu Chengwu frowned.

"Xiao Wei, don't prepare so much food for your young lady in the future!
Just enough to eat!

Don’t waste it! ”

Zhu Chengwu looked at the plate in front of Cui Shuyun, then turned to Cui Shuyun and Xiaowei and said.

Although Zhu Chengwu's previous life's world was rich in resources, Zhu Chengwu was born into a royal family in this life. So, in both lives, Zhu Chengwu had no shortage of food.

But Zhu Chengwu just can't stand the waste of food.

For Zhu Chengwu, he would rather waste treasures such as pearls and agates that are "worth a thousand gold" than waste a grain of food.

Because food is the key to survival, and treasures like pearls and agates that are "worth a fortune" cannot fill people's stomachs.

Without the halo bestowed by humans, things like pearls and agates are worthless.

"Ah~

Ok!

"My Lord!"

Although Xiaowei didn't know what Zhu Chengwu was thinking, she still responded quickly to Zhu Chengwu's order.

And kept Zhu Chengwu's request firmly in mind.

In Xiaowei's opinion, Cui Shuyun and she will be working under Zhu Chengwu in the future, so naturally they have to pay more attention to Zhu Chengwu's requests.

"Marquis Fu'an, what do you mean by this?"

Cui Shuyun was not convinced.

Not only did he tease Xiaowei and target her just now, but now he's even finding fault with the food?

Don’t you know that dogs don’t bother you when you’re eating?
If a dog disturbs people's meals, kill the dog!

"nothing!
It’s just that I’m not used to wasting food, and I can’t stand seeing others wasting food!”

Zhu Chengwu gave a good explanation this time.

"What do you mean you can't stand others wasting food? I think you are targeting me!"

Cui Shuyun was extremely angry.

What kind of waste is this?
It’s just four dishes and one soup!
In the Cui family, even if Cui Shuyun is eating alone, four dishes and one soup are the basic meal.

If more people eat it, the standard will be increased several times.

Cui Shuyun had read the history of Ming Dynasty. Four dishes and one soup was the frugality standard proposed by the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. At the birthday banquet of Empress Ma, Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty prepared four dishes and one soup for the ministers.

Now, Cui Shuyun's meals also consist of four dishes and one soup. How can this be considered a waste?
And Cui Shuyun hasn’t eaten all day!
I only had this meal tonight.

Even so, Zhu Chengwu still criticized it for being wasteful?
Cui Shuyun felt that Zhu Chengwu was just looking for trouble!
Cui Shuyun, who was extremely angry, turned to look at the plate of food in front of Zhu Chengwu.

Don’t think that Cui Shuyun didn’t remember. The portion of food that the servant just brought over was several times larger than Zhu Chengwu’s.

Now, Zhu Chengwu, the Marquis of Fu'an, said in front of her that he was "not used to wasting food"?
Isn't this funny!
However, when Cui Shuyun's eyes fell on the plate in front of Zhu Chengwu, she was stunned.

Although there were many food plates in front of Zhu Chengwu, there was not a trace of residue in any of them.

On the contrary, although there were few plates in front of Cui Shuyun, most of the food was still left in each of them.

This……

This fact immediately left Cui Shuyun speechless.

Cui Shuyun's anger inexplicably began to dissipate, and she sat back on the stool.

As Zhu Chengwu and Cui Shuyun finished their meals.

The servants came and took away all the food plates.

The servant who was cleaning up looked at the plate in front of Cui Shuyun, which still had most of the food left, and glanced at Cui Shuyun curiously.

Although he didn't say anything, he lowered his head and went back to cleaning up.

But at that moment, Cui Shuyun was still very embarrassed!

She seemed to sense what the servant was thinking: Hey! How come some people haven't finished eating yet?
At this moment, Cui Shuyun knew that Zhu Chengwu was not lying.

It's not targeting her deliberately!
Under the governance of Marquis Zhu Fu'an, the Fu'an Marquis's Mansion seemed to really have the habit and rules of not wasting food.

"Today, you sleep on the bed! I sleep on the couch!"

Zhu Chengwu had no idea about Cui Shuyun's colorful inner drama.

After the servant who cleaned up the dishes left, he said this and directly called Xiao Wei to help him back to the soft couch where he was originally.

Xiaowei really doesn't want to move!

Because she hoped that the Marquis and the young lady could do things that a couple should do.

But I thought of the transaction between Cui Shuyun and Marquis Fu'an in the other courtyard.

Thinking of the tit-for-tat between the young lady and the marquis just now.

Thinking of Zhu Chengwu’s serious injuries and his identity.

In the end, Xiaowei walked forward silently and helped Zhu Chengwu back to the couch.

Xiaowei didn't want to help Zhu Chengwu back to the couch.

But Chunhua felt lost when she saw Zhu Chengwu calling her Xiaowei instead of her.

"on purpose!

on purpose!
The Marquis did it on purpose!"

Chunhua felt angry and aggrieved.

As Zhu Chengwu arranged a place for them to stay and sleep, Chunhua and Xiaowei tactfully left one after another.

After Xiaowei left the room, she closed the door tightly!
Although Marquis Fu'an was seriously injured, the wedding night was definitely going to be ruined.

But Xiaowei hopes that the young lady and the marquis can take this opportunity to communicate more about their feelings.

Physical communication is important, but emotional communication is also essential.

This time, Xiaowei's expectations were not disappointed.

Suddenly changing to an unfamiliar environment, and on the first night since becoming a married girl from an unmarried girl, Cui Shuyun tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

Even if she wanted to practice, Cui Shuyun's current condition was not suitable for practice.

The most important thing in spiritual cultivation is spiritual concentration.

Otherwise, the first level of spiritual practice would not be called "Soul Settling".

"My Lord, are you asleep?"

In the end, Cui Shuyun had to find ways to talk to Zhu Chengwu.

After all, in the future, at least for a period of time, the two of them will live in the same yard, so it won’t hurt to get to know each other better.

Otherwise, the "food waste" farce like just now would happen again.

"Is something wrong?"

Zhu Chengwu answered Cui Shuyun while closing his eyes and regulating his breathing on the couch.

Breathing therapy for healing is different from regular internal force practice and there is no need to worry about being disturbed.

“No big deal?
I just want to ask if there are any other rules in the Marquis' Mansion that Shuyun needs to pay attention to!

If she had known in advance, Shuyun could have avoided it!"

Although what Cui Shuyun said made sense, for some reason Zhu Chengwu always felt that she was deliberately trying to find something to talk about.

“There aren’t many rules in Fu’an Marquis’ Mansion!
For you, just remember the following points: 1. Don't waste food, 2. Don't disturb my practice, 3. Don't meddle in other people's business, 4. Don't spread the affairs of the mansion to others, even if it's to your Cui family."

When it comes to the last point, Zhu Chengwu emphasizes his tone.

Cui Shuyun will live in Fu'an Marquis Mansion in the future and will inevitably come into contact with many things about Fu'an Marquis Mansion.

Although it is an important secret, Zhu Chengwu will definitely keep it secret from Cui Shuyun.

But as the saying goes, a thief can steal for a thousand days but you can never be on guard against thieves!
Zhu Chengwu had to explain everything to Cui Shuyun in advance.

After all, for many people with high IQs, small things and daily dynamics are enough to deduce many big things and secrets!
Although Zhu Chengwu can't do it!

But Zhu Chengwu never denied the existence of such wise people in this world.

Therefore, it is better not to spread some trivial matters and daily life!
"it is good!

Shuyun remembered it!
By the way, Lord Marquis, can Shujun practice in the Marquis of Fu'an Mansion?"

Having said that, Cui Shuyun looked at Zhu Chengwu nervously.

Although Cui Shuyun and Ai Jingxia parted ways.

But Cui Shuyun still agrees with Ai Jingxia's theory.

“Only when people master power can they master their own destiny.

Only when people have strength can they survive in this dangerous world and look at this prosperous world without fear. "

Cui Shuyun spent the first half of her life at home, and in the second half of her life, Cui Shuyun wanted to see the prosperous world.

For this, strength is indispensable.

On the surface, Cui Shuyun was asking whether she could practice in Fu'an Marquis Mansion, but in fact she was asking Zhu Chengwu whether she could use the resources of Fu'an Marquis Mansion to practice.

Spiritual cultivation, like martial arts cultivation, also requires resource support.

After leaving the Cui family and Ai Jingxia, Cui Shuyun had no channels to obtain resources for cultivation.

But Zhu Chengwu did not understand Cui Shuyun's hidden meaning.

"sure!
Practice is your freedom!
We had an agreement before, I will keep my word and will never restrict your freedom!"

Zhu Chengwu didn't understand why Cui Shuyun came to ask Zhu Chengwu about such a matter of course.

Zhu Chengwu's answer left Cui Shuyun a little dumbfounded.

Just no restrictions on practice?
What about resources?

How to practice without resources?

Am I being too cryptic?
The great Marquis of Fu'an can't be so stupid that he can't understand what I mean!

Cui Shujun couldn't guess whether Zhu Chengwu really didn't understand or was pretending not to understand because he didn't want Cui Shujun to use the resources of Fu'an Marquis Mansion.
