Mrs. Zheng was so happy that she went to see Xia Manni the next day.
When Xia Manni saw that Madam Zheng had come again, her instinct was to let her become the princess.
So she procrastinated here and there, and when she was done, Mrs. Zheng had not left yet.
Xia Manni had no choice but to go to the backyard to find Mrs. Zheng.
When Madam Zheng saw Xia Manni, she just smiled and said, "Little girl, are you hiding from me?"
Xia Manni smiled and said, "How could that be?"
After talking with Zheng Yi last night, her old man also talked to her when he got home, saying that their family was like a sea of fire and swords, and they couldn't let Manni down.
Only then did she realize that by doing this she might really harm Xia Manni.
Come to think of it, it’s a bit selfish.
I think she is a little confused.
"I'm here to apologize to you today."
Xia Manni asked with some confusion: "Apologize?"
"Yes, I was rude yesterday. The old man and Yi'er have already taught me a lesson. Our family is in deep trouble. If you go there, you might get yourself into trouble too."
Xia Manni smiled and said nothing.
However, she could also understand Mrs. Zheng's good intentions. After all, if she were in such a situation, she would also go crazy.
"Your idea is indeed a bit crazy."
Listening to Xia Manni's joke, Mrs. Zheng knew that Xia Manni didn't take it to heart.
"You're just too good. I only thought you were amazing, but forgot that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand."
"That's true, but have you thought about what to do?"
Madam Zheng shook her head and said, "When the enemy comes, we will fight them; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. Let's take it one step at a time."
Xia Manni couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Mrs. Zheng. She had been free for half her life, but in the end she was bound.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zheng continued, "But you still have to meet my son. What if you two fall in love with each other?"
Xia Manni: "What?"
Madam Zheng smiled and said, "I'm not exaggerating, but although my son is a bit big and strong, he's not bad looking. If it weren't for his poor family background, he would have been engaged so early."
"What does the prince say?"
At first, after hearing Mrs. Zheng's opening remarks, Xia Manni thought that the matter was over. Why did they have to meet again?
"Yier said, let's meet then?"
Xia Manni: “?”
Why is this different from what he expected? Could it be that the prince is indecisive?
That shouldn’t be the case. Didn’t I hear that he risked his life to save the emperor?
"You don't want to see me, do you? If you really don't want to see me, then I'll go back to Yi'er. After all, I don't have this blessing."
Mrs. Zheng began to use the "bitter self" strategy, she knew that Xia Manni would not tolerate hardship. Although she knew that she could not force Xia Manni, she always felt that the two of them should at least meet.
What if they fall in love with each other?
This is the reason why Mrs. Zheng came to visit today. She was too impatient yesterday.
Today she wanted at least the two of them to meet.
Xia Manni looked at Mrs. Zheng's pitiful appearance and finally felt a little soft-hearted.
What's the harm in just thinking about meeting him?
Isn’t this just like modern blind dates? When you meet someone, just say you don’t like them, right?
What if the prince falls in love with her?
Although she knew that this possibility was unlikely, Xia Manni still had to make sufficient preparations.
"In that case, I'll give Madam Zheng a favor and meet her."
Mrs. Zheng felt a little helpless because of Xia Manni's friendly tone.
It seems that this girl really doesn't want to get married.
Well, it all depends on fate.
Being able to meet him was the best effort she could make.
"Okay, then I thank Shopkeeper Xia for this favor."
Both of them laughed, and the little unpleasantness of yesterday disappeared without a trace.
"But I have a request."
"Tell me, Manny, what is your request?"
"Let her come to the restaurant to find me, we will meet here."
Mrs. Zheng: "Ah? Here?"
Although the environment here is nice, it is just a place to eat, and cannot be compared with a place for rowing or singing.
"Yes, I have to let the prince see the real me."
Mrs. Zheng knew about this and thought that this was to make her son give up.
"Can't we go somewhere else? Aren't places like teahouses and houseboats good?"
Xia Manni shook her head and said firmly, "It can only be here."
In the end, Mrs. Zheng couldn't persuade Xia Manni and had to agree to bring her son over the next day.
Xia Manni nodded and agreed.
I don't have the beauty of Xi Shi, nor the gentle smile, I can only count the bills and greet guests.
How could the prince be interested in such a commoner?
Just think of it as a way to cheer up Old Madam Zheng.
After the two of them had reached an agreement, Mrs. Zheng told Zheng Yi what Xia Manni meant.
Zheng Yi couldn't understand why he had to go around in circles since he knew it was him.
But women's minds are always complicated, this is what his father warned him.
So Zheng Yi agreed without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Zheng Yi was busy in the court and could not get away.
I was busy until it was dark before I went home.
Mrs. Zheng lost her temper in front of the servants.
The servants didn't know what was going on and didn't dare to speak.
"Go now."
Mrs. Zheng looked at her son who had not yet changed into court clothes, and then at his already tired face, and became even more angry.
"Why don't you go change your clothes now?"
Zheng Yi knew he was in the wrong, so he obediently went back to his room and changed his clothes.
Madam Zheng did not let the servants follow her, and only took Xiao Tao and Guard Mu with her.
