Wei Hanzhou's heart ached when he saw her like this. He wanted to give her the first handkerchief, but seeing that her body was swaying and a little unstable, he simply gently scooped her up and held her in his arms.

Liu Tangxi did not refuse. She hugged Wei Hanzhou's waist and cried breathlessly.

She cried all the way to the dock without stopping.

After loading all the things onto the boat and getting into the cabin, Liu Tangxi still sobbed from time to time.

"If you miss mom in the future, please ask her and her family to come to the capital to visit us, okay?"

Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou with swollen eyes and scolded him, "Why are you so unfilial? It's so far to go to the capital, and it's not convenient for your parents to go there because they are old."

Wei Hanzhou glanced at her and said nothing.

Gradually, Liu Tangxi calmed down, sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the river outside in a daze.

Wei Hanzhou wondered, why didn't he see her crying so sadly when he went out to study before, nor did he see her visit him at his study place?

As Weijia Village gradually became farther away, the town and the county seat also disappeared from Liutangxi's sight.

After coming to this strange world, almost everything she was familiar with disappeared.

Except Wei Hanzhou.

What awaits her ahead is the unknown capital city and the plot in the book.

Although Wei Hanzhou is a real person in the book, and there are many descriptions of him in the book, most of them are in the capital, not in the countryside. The life they lead is more like a side story about the villain Wei Hanzhou.

Looking at Wei Hanzhou, who was sitting opposite him and had started reading a book as soon as he got on the boat, Liu Tangxi felt very complicated.

From what we can see so far, Wei Hanzhou's personality is completely different from that in the book. Except for his appearance and IQ, everything else seems to have changed.

So, after arriving in the capital and becoming an official, will he still be the same as in the book, a person who only knows how to flatter and curry favor with the powerful?

Probably... not.

Liu Tangxi thought.

But some people are one side in front of their family members and another side in the officialdom, so she couldn't guarantee it 100%.

However, what kind of person Wei Hanzhou is is not the most important thing. The most troublesome thing is that there is the Huai En Marquis Mansion in the capital.

There was a person in Marquis Huai'en's mansion who did not like her original owner.

Also, should she tell Wei Hanzhou about this matter in advance?

But she had been pretending to have lost her memory before, and now she suddenly said that she remembered her family was in the capital. Isn't that too strange? Would Wei Hanzhou suspect that she had not lost her memory? Then how to explain her escape and the sudden change in her personality?

Why.

Liu Tangxi didn't even notice it, she suddenly sighed.

Wei Hanzhou had already noticed that Liu Tangxi was looking at him, and he had been waiting for her to speak, but unexpectedly, she just stared at him without saying a word.

"Madam, do you have anything to say to your husband?"

Liu Tangxi was thinking about confessing something to Wei Hanzhou and was shocked when he heard this.

"No, nothing."

"Oh, really?"

"Yes... yes." In order to hide his inner discomfort, he picked up the cup and took a sip of water.

After taking a sip of water, Liu Tangxi found that Wei Hanzhou was staring at her with a strange look.

Liu Tangxi was confused and thought that Wei Hanzhou had seen through her thoughts. She asked guiltily, "You...what are you looking at me for?"

Wei Hanzhou glanced at the cup in Liu Tangxi's hand and said nothing.

Liu Tangxi also noticed Wei Hanzhou's gaze, and looked down at the cup in his hand. He was stunned when he saw it.

This cup was not from the ship, but she brought it from home. When she was away from home, she would always bring some tableware from home, for fear that the tableware on the road might be dirty and she would get sick after using it.

Since there were two of them traveling together, she brought two with her.

The two cups were both made of bamboo and looked exactly the same. To distinguish them, she drew a butterfly on her cup and bamboo on Wei Hanzhou's cup.

But the cup in her hand at this moment was clearly the one with the bamboo painted on it.

This is Wei Hanzhou’s one.

After realizing this, Liu Tangxi's hands began to tremble and he almost lost his grip.

"My lady, are you seeing things wrong?"

Liu Tangxi blushed slightly, put down the cup that was a little hot, and said, "Yes... yes, I was mistaken. This butterfly and bamboo look too much alike."

"Um."

Liu Tangxi looked up at Wei Hanzhou's expression and saw that he was looking at her. She quickly lowered her eyes, coughed lightly, and said, "I'm tired. I'm going to lie down for a while."

"good."

Liu Tangxi said to lie down and then he lay down.

Wei Hanzhou's gaze stayed on the cup used by Liu Tangxi for a long time, and then he continued reading.

Next, Liu Tangxi had no time to think about it.

Because, she, who never got seasick, suddenly started to get seasick. She vomited so violently that she felt dizzy and as if she was drunk. She never sobered up.

Originally, she was afraid that Han Zhou would be unhappy because he was by her side, so she held back. But it was impossible to hold back in such a situation, and after vomiting all over Wei Han Zhou, she simply let herself go.

At that moment, Wei Hanzhou's face looked very ugly.

Liu Tangxi thought, no one would be unhappy if their new clothes were spit on by someone, right?

However, she didn't have time to think about these things, and she didn't care about him. She just vomited. She thought that after she felt better, she would apologize to him after getting off the boat.

After sailing on the boat for three days, Liu Tangxi felt dizzy for three days and vomited for three days. He was not sober for a single moment.

When it was time to get off the boat, she just stepped out of the cabin when her legs went weak and she almost fell to her knees.

However, at this moment, a pair of hands supported her, lifted her legs and picked her up by the waist.

This was the second time Wei Hanzhou hugged her, but unfortunately she fell asleep the first time and didn’t notice.

This time it happened while she was sober.

Looking at the handsome face so close to her, Liu Tangxi's heart beat slightly when she thought about how Wei Hanzhou had been taking care of her these two days even though he looked unhappy.

"My husband, I'm sorry."

Wei Hanzhou looked down at her and said, "Stop talking and take a break."

"Yeah." Liu Tangxi hugged Wei Hanzhou's neck tightly with both hands and rested her head on his chest.

According to the previous plan, they should have arrived in the city and left early the next morning. However, because of Liu Tangxi's situation, the two stayed in the city for another day and left early on the third day. During this time, Wei Hanzhou went to buy some medicine for Liu Tangxi.

After changing the carriage, Liu Tangxi felt much more comfortable.

Although it was a bit bumpy, it was much more comfortable than taking a boat.

However, the good times did not last long. After two days of traveling by carriage, Liu Tangxi began to feel dizzy again.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou's increasingly ugly expression, Liu Tangxi was really impressed by his own physique.

She thought, it was a good thing that she didn't escape secretly when she first came through, otherwise, she would have died of illness on the road before reaching the capital.

"How about... you go first, and I'll rest for a few days before going?" Liu Tangxi said in a low voice.

"No need." Wei Hanzhou refused.

Fortunately, the carriage would stop at the inn at night, so they could rest for the night.

Liu Tangxi's physical recovery is also not bad.

So, when riding in a carriage during the day, Liu Tangxi would feel dizzy for the whole day, fall asleep on the bed at night, and ride in the carriage again with full energy the next day. Dizzy for the whole day, sleep again at night...

This went on for five or six days until they were finally close to the capital.

Seeing that they were only a few dozen miles away from the capital and it was getting dark, Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi's expression and stopped at a nearby post station.

This post station is very close to the capital city, it looks very large, and there are quite a few people inside.

However, neither of them had the heart to watch.

When going upstairs, Liu Tangxi felt dizzy and leaned on Wei Hanzhou.

After entering the house, Liu Tangxi fell directly on the bed and fell asleep. When it was time for dinner, she didn't get up no matter how Wei Hanzhou called her.

However, in the middle of the night, Liu Tangxi suddenly woke up, opened his eyes and looked at the bed curtain.

Wei Hanzhou had been taking care of Liu Tangxi these days. He didn't sleep very deeply. He woke up when he heard the noise and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Liu Tangxi glanced at him sideways, but before he could say anything, his stomach started to growl.

Suddenly, Liu Tangxi's face turned red.

However, Wei Hanzhou couldn't see anything in the darkness.

Eating is a big deal. Liu Tangxi suppressed his embarrassment and said, "I'm hungry."

Wei Hanzhou heaved a sigh of relief, stood up, lit the oil lamp, took a plate of snacks from the table, and said, "There are still some snacks here, eat them."

Liu Tangxi glanced down at the mung bean cake on the plate that Wei Hanzhou was holding, frowned in disdain, and said, "I want to eat noodles."

She had eaten too many pastries on the way, and she really wanted to vomit when she saw them, and her mouth was filled with sourness.

Hearing this request, Wei Hanzhou frowned.

Seeing this, Liu Tangxi tugged at his clothes and said, "There should be waiters guarding the inn all day, right? How about we go to the kitchen and take a look?"

Wei Hanzhou wanted to refuse, but seeing Liu Tangxi's pale and thin face and pitiful appearance, he agreed and followed her to the kitchen downstairs.

As a result, as soon as the two of them walked to the first floor, they saw a waiter talking to two guests.

Behind the two guests stood two guards in dark blue clothes.

"Hurry up and ask the chef to come out. I'm hungry and need to eat."

A bright-looking girl, about seven or eight years old, wearing bright red clothes, spoke to the waiter in a domineering manner.

The waiter in grey coarse clothes bent his waist and explained timidly, "Sir, I'm sorry, the chef is not at the post station today. His mother is sick, so he will go back to take care of her after cooking dinner in the evening these few days."

"I don't care. I'm hungry and I just want to eat." The little girl was still making a fuss.

The man standing beside her, who was about 30 or 40 years old and dressed in purple clothes, frowned and said, "Zhenzhen, stop making trouble. There are some food in the luggage. Go and take a rest first. When we return to Beijing tomorrow, Dad will take you to eat something delicious."

Hearing this, the little girl named Zhenzhen pouted, tugged at the middle-aged man's sleeve, looked up at him and said, "Dad, I don't want to eat those dry snacks, I want to eat something else. Hurry up and get someone to catch the chef."

The little girl had a pair of big almond eyes, a small nose, and a cherry-like mouth, and she looked very pretty. Now when she looked at people with such an expression, it was really enough to melt people's hearts.

If she hadn't been so domineering just now, Liu Tangxi would have thought she was very cute.

Unexpectedly, the man who seemed to love his daughter very much was not moved at all, and said in a somewhat stern tone, "When Dad asked someone to call you to eat at night, you didn't eat, and now you are hungry. Besides, didn't you hear the waiter say that the cook's mother is sick? Put yourself in his shoes. If one day Dad is sick and you are serving him by his bed, and others insist on calling you away, would you be willing?"

Hearing this, Liu Tangxi's attention was immediately drawn to this man.

This man looked about the same height as Wei Hanzhou, probably over 1.8 meters tall, with bronze skin, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a sense of authority from a superior. Although he was scolding his daughter, she didn't seem to be afraid of him. It was obvious that he was a strict father on the surface, but in private he must have doted on his daughter.

However, this man is too handsome and imposing.

Liu Tangxi was staring at the man when he heard a light cough.

This light cough not only attracted Liu Tangxi's attention, but also attracted the attention of the other five people present.

Seeing that very imposing man looking at her, she felt the pressure doubled. Liu Tangxi suddenly felt like she was caught, and turned to glare at Wei Hanzhou. If it weren't for her, how could she be caught peeking?

As soon as she turned her head, she saw Wei Hanzhou looking at her with his eyes lowered.

"Aren't you hungry, madam?" Wei Hanzhou reminded with a cold face.

Liu Tangxi's eyes flickered, and an awkward smile appeared on his face. He said, "Yes, yes, I'm hungry, hungry."

Having said that, Liu Tangxi looked at the staff.

The waiter looked slightly bitter and repeated, "I'm so sorry, the chef of the post station is not here. His old mother is sick at home."

Liu Tangxi quickly said, "Ah, it's okay. I just don't know if you have any leftover vegetables or noodles on the stove? Can we make them ourselves?"

The waiter's expression changed from sadness to joy, and he said earnestly, "Yes, yes, you can use it."

This is an official post station, and all the people coming and going are officials. He was deeply impressed by the two young couples in front of him. He had read their documents during the day and learned that the man with a cold face and no words was the new top scholar of the year, and the beautiful woman was his wife.

"Thank you." Liu Tangxi thanked.

"You're welcome, ma'am." The waiter bowed and said.

Liu Tangxi nodded to the people, turned around and followed Wei Hanzhou towards the stove.

The little girl who was making trouble just now saw this scene and called out to Liu Tangxi's back, "Hey."

Liu Tangxi did not stop walking, and neither did Wei Hanzhou.

The little girl was a little angry and raised her voice, "Hey, those two in front, are you the cook?"

Liu Tangxi understood that he was calling her. But, so what? She was not really a cook. No matter how powerful she was, she was starving to death. So, she didn't stop.

The same is true for Wei Hanzhou.

The little girl wanted to shout again, but the man beside her said unhappily, "Zhenzhen, stop it! It's almost midnight now, and the guests in the inn are all asleep. If you shout so loudly, you will wake them all up. And what you said just now was very rude."

The little girl named Zhenzhen stomped her feet in anger, tears in her eyes.

"Dad, you only know how to teach me a lesson. The closer we get to Beijing, the worse your temper becomes. I've never seen you like this before in the north. If I had known that coming to Beijing would be so uncomfortable, I would have stayed there alone instead of coming back with you."

How could the man not feel sorry for his daughter? Hearing his daughter say this, he said helplessly, "You also know that it is somewhere else. Now that we are in the capital, we must be careful and pay attention at all times."

The staff on the side listened to their conversation and reminded them a few times, "Sir, young lady, the one just now is our new number one scholar. He passed the exam at such a young age and has a bright future. Don't offend him."

The clerk did not know the identities of the two people in front of him, and it was not this person's document that he was checking at the time.

The man was slightly stunned when he heard Wei Hanzhou's identity, and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Wei Hanzhou's disappearing back.

The little girl named Zhen Zhen snorted coldly, "It's just a top scholar, what's the big deal——"

"Be careful with your words!" the man scolded his daughter.

How could Zhenzhen not know her father's attitude? Just now she was so noisy, and her father just said a few words to her, but now he was really angry. Suddenly, she dared not talk nonsense anymore, pursed her lips, lowered her head and said nothing.

At this moment, Zhenzhen's stomach growled.

The man sighed, stroked his daughter's hair, and said, "Let's go."

"Ah? Where are you going?" Zhenzhen raised her head and asked puzzledly.

"Aren't you hungry? Go see if there's any food on the stove."

Zhenzhen immediately smiled and followed her father to the stove.

Liu Tangxi's hands and feet were extremely nimble. At this moment, she had already found flour and eggs and was ready to knead the dough.

"Are you hungry? Do you want me to make you a bowl?" Liu Tangxi asked while adding noodles into the bowl.

Wei Hanzhou refused. “No need.”

Liu Tangxi continued to add noodles and said, "It's delicious. Don't regret it later."

Wei Hanzhou looked up at her and said nothing.

Liu Tangxi continued to add noodles and said with a smile, "It's guaranteed to be delicious. The kids next door will cry because of it! You'd better hold back when the time comes."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was some movement behind him.

Hearing the noise, Liu Tangxi turned back subconsciously. She thought, the kid next door is really quick to act. However, she turned back soon. She was really hungry. Even though the man was very handsome, a handsome face couldn't resist hunger.

Besides, isn't Wei Hanzhou a good-looking guy? She has been vomiting all along the way and it has no effect at all.

Wei Hanzhou also glanced towards the door, and his eyes met with the middle-aged man in the air. Soon, he turned back and looked at Liu Tangxi.

The man came over with his daughter, bowed to Wei Hanzhou, and said, "My lord, madam, I am very sorry for offending you just now."

Wei Hanzhou bowed in return, "You're welcome."

From the man's clothes and accessories, Wei Hanzhou had already discovered the clue and knew that this man was not a simple person.

Liu Tangxi sighed slightly and continued adding noodles.

"I wonder what Madam is cooking. My daughter hasn't had dinner yet. Could you make some more?" the man asked politely.

Liu Tangxi turned around to look at him and said, "Noodles."

The little girl curled her lips in disappointment and said, "Ah? So you're making noodles? I won't eat it then."

Liu Tangxi thought, if you don't want to eat, I don't want to cook yet. However, after thinking about it, seeing that the noodles were almost ready, she beat a few eggs, added some oil and warm water, and slowly mixed the noodles.

"If you don't want to eat, go back and eat some cakes," the man said, with a stern tone that would not allow anyone to refuse.

The little girl thought about the cold and hard pastries, then thought about the hot soup noodles, pouted her lips, and agreed reluctantly.

At this moment, Liu Tangxi had already prepared the dough and started kneading it.

Seeing this, the man repeated, "Madam, can you make one more bowl for my daughter?"

Liu Tangxi kept moving his hands and did not add more noodles. He said, "Just wait."

Hearing her words, the man raised his eyebrows slightly.

This No. 1 Scholar's wife is really interesting. Ever since they came in, did she expect them to come and eat the noodles she made? Also, this No. 1 Scholar must have guessed his identity, otherwise he wouldn't use honorifics.

That being the case, they didn't see how these two could please them.

Is this really the man who lived in the countryside for twenty years as rumored, trying to please both the Crown Prince and the Third Prince and having no integrity at all?

And is the other one really a girl from a brothel?

Not to mention anything else, just looking at the face, they don't look alike.

I'm afraid the rumor is wrong.

The man said nothing more after that.

After kneading the dough, Liu Tangxi put it aside to rise.

Afterwards, Liu Tangxi went to find a handful of vegetables and a piece of meat and brought them over to prepare.

Zhener frowned again and said, "I don't eat vegetables."

Liu Tangxi didn't even look at her and continued to deal with the matter.

"Zhenzhen!" the man reminded his daughter again.

Zhener shut up immediately.

Liu Tangxi washed the vegetables and put them aside, then cut the meat into shreds.

After about a quarter of an hour, Liu Tangxi took the dough and rolled it into dough with a rolling pin, then cut it into thin strips with a knife. Finally, to prevent it from sticking, he sprinkled a layer of flour on it.

Next, she started to stir-fry the shredded pork in oil in a hot pan and added water.

The water started to roll down below.

Finally, put the vegetables in the pot, add seasonings, etc.

During the whole process, no one in the room spoke, everyone was staring at Liu Tangxi's movements.

After the pot was boiled, Liu Tangxi took four bowls, three large ones and one small one, and put the noodles into the bowls.

Among them, three large bowls contained green vegetables, but only one small bowl did not.

The man took one look at the four bowls and without any hesitation asked the guard to take the bowls away.

Soon, four people sat at the same table.

Liu Tangxi was so hungry that he almost fainted, but he didn't hesitate and started eating as soon as the food was served.

Seeing that she was eating so happily, the little girl thought it was quite reluctant at first. But at this moment, she suddenly felt hungry, so she picked up a noodle and started to eat it.

When the noodles entered her mouth, her expression changed immediately. She quickly chewed the noodles and said to the man, "Dad, it's delicious."

Seeing his daughter happy, the man touched her hair and said in a gentle tone, "Well, eat quickly, or it will get cold."

"Hmm." The little girl lowered her head and started eating.

After talking to his daughter, the man looked at Wei Hanzhou. The two nodded to each other, picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Wei Hanzhou already knew Liu Tangxi's abilities, so he was not surprised at all.

After taking a bite, the man was stunned, with a very similar expression to the little girl's face just now.

He watched the wife of the top scholar cook the whole time and did not find anything unusual. However, she made this simple bowl of egg noodles so delicious that it was comparable to the noodles made by Chef Yu with soup.

After a while, the noodles were finished, and Liu Tangxi picked up the bowl and drank all the soup in it.

After drinking, he took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth with satisfaction.

The four of us finished eating almost at the same time.

Except for Liu Tangxi, probably no one present had eaten enough.

Liu Tangxi was able to eat her fill because she usually ate small bowls of rice. Now that she had eaten a large bowl, she was naturally full.

The little girl had a small appetite and ate from a small bowl, so she was not full.

After she finished eating, she looked at the three large bowls beside Liu Tangxi and asked unhappily, "Why do you all have large bowls, but I have a small bowl?"

Liu Tangxi was full now and in the mood to talk, so he replied directly, "Because you are a child."

"But I'm not full, give me more..."

Liu Tangxi didn't wait for her to finish and said, "Children can't eat too much at night, it's easy to get food accumulation."

This is an official post station, and it is obvious that these two people are of high status. If the little girl really speaks out, it will be bad for her to refuse. It is better to refuse before she finishes her words, so as to save face for both parties.

After saying that, Liu Tangxi said to Wei Hanzhou, "Husband, I'm sleepy."

Wei Hanzhou glanced at the middle-aged man opposite him and said, "I'm sorry, my wife is tired from the journey and is still sick, so I can't accompany you two gentlemen."

The man glanced at Liu Tangxi's expression, then quickly looked away and said, "Thank you both."

"You're welcome."

After saying that, Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi went back to their room.

Zhenzhen was not full at this moment, so she stood up and was about to say something, but was stopped by the man.

Seeing that Liu Tangxi had helped him solve the girl's problem, the clerk said a few words for her, "The lady was indeed feeling unwell. When she came this evening, she vomited by the car and her face turned pale. The top scholar helped her back home and she didn't even have dinner."

After hearing this, Zhenzhen stopped talking immediately.

The man gave the waiter two taels of silver and said, "Thank you for the ingredients."

"You are so kind, thank you for your gift."

The next morning, Liu Tangxi went downstairs feeling refreshed.

In the lobby, they met the father and daughter who were having dinner.

After greeting each other, Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi went to have dinner.

After finishing the meal, I met the father and daughter again at the place where the carriages and horses were parked in the back.

The little girl was standing there playing, and when she saw the two of them coming, she tugged at the man's sleeve.

After his daughter reminded him, the man turned around and looked.

"I heard that Madam is suffering from the hardship of driving. This place is still several dozen miles away from the capital. Why don't we go together?"

According to Liu Tangxi's personality, she was going to refuse. However, when she saw the man's luxurious and spacious carriage, she suddenly stopped talking.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at the carriage again, then at Liu Tangxi's still pale face, and said, "It is better to obey than to be respectful."

After getting on the carriage and travelling for a while, Liu Tangxi no longer felt carsick. He thought to himself that it was worth it to exchange a meal for a luxury ticket.
