Chapter 1031: Visit
Second Mrs. Zheng made a post to visit Chanyi the next day, Chanyi didn't have a good impression of the Zheng family, she hadn't forgotten the previous matter of Mrs. Qin, but the fifth uncle Xie Yanning had already met the second master of the Zheng family, and she didn't want to do too much, not to mention that she hadn't seen this second Mrs. Zheng either, and she didn't know her temperament, so she didn't refuse, and met Second Mrs. Zheng in the flower hall.

Zheng Er's wife Cai has a standard goose egg face, although she is old, but because of good maintenance, she looks only thirty years old, and the little lady Zheng Ning is only eleven years old this year, with a pair of eyes that are exactly the same as Zheng Er's wife, and she looks at Chanyi curiously.
"The princess is really good-looking," Zheng Ning said softly, although she looked a little squeamish, she was very sensible, standing beside Mrs. Zheng, like a porcelain doll, she sighed aggravated, and deliberately repeated, "Better looking than my cousin." ”
"This stupid child, no matter who she meets, she has to compare herself with her cousin," Second Mrs. Zheng explained to Chanyi busily, "It's the daughter of my sister's family, and now my sister's family is in Yunfu City, so they don't see each other often, but the two always loved to play together when they were young." ”
Chanyi felt that Mrs. Zheng Er looked a little familiar, and after careful questioning, she knew that she was the daughter of the Cai family in Yunzhou, and couldn't help but smile and said: "The Duchess of Dingguo is also surnamed Cai, so I don't know if she is of the same clan." ”
"The princess also knows the clan sister?" Second Mrs. Zheng said happily, "It's her, her sister Lin was like a jade girl next to the Bodhisattva in the temple when she was a child, not to mention how good-looking." ”
Chanyi nodded: "Sister Lin is indeed beautiful and moving, speaking of which, we can still climb a relative, Sister Lin is engaged to my eldest cousin, it is estimated that she will be able to get married after a while, and she can be regarded as a talented and beautiful person." ”
In fact, in a big family, if you really talk about it, it is indeed full of relatives, even if there is no one in this generation, maybe you can trace back to three generations, and you may be able to find the origin.
"I should have come to visit the princess a long time ago, but what happened at home is really a little difficult to talk about, the princess is not surprised, but I always feel a little embarrassed in my heart," Mrs. Zheng was also driven to the shelves, and there was no way, "I am not afraid of the princess's shame in the affairs of the family, my sister-in-law is a foolish person, and the uncle is the patriarch, and she is busy, there is always a place that she can't take care of, and the princess should not be surprised." ”
Mrs. Zheng got up solemnly and saluted Chanyi, and Chanyi was busy helping people up.
"Second Mrs. Zheng is serious, there is no need to apologize, this is the housework of the Zheng family, I am an outsider in the end, and I will meddle because I am entrusted by others," Chan Yi said this, obviously not accepting it, but when the words changed, she smiled a little, "There are also benefits to being confused, Second Mrs. Zheng is a smart person, why did she become confused?" ”
Mrs. Zheng shouldn't have apologized for this, but when she saw Mrs. Zheng, she showed that Chanyi looked at the two separately.
"I'm confused, I should be punished!" Second Mrs. Zheng got up with a busy smile and sat back in the chair, "I heard the master say that the prince returned to Yunfu City by order, and I thought that you must be bored at home, if you don't think I'm verbose, I can say it." ”
Chanyi smiled and shook her head: "I'm a little panicked, seeing that my cousin's marriage is approaching, I'm as busy as ants on a hot pot every day." ”
"How long is my cousin's marriage due?" Second Mrs. Zheng hurriedly asked.
"It's a month before the wedding."
Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "At that time, it is the best time of the year, neither cold nor hot, the bride does not have to suffer, and the groom does not have to suffer, this day is good, wait until those days, the princess must not be polite, if you want to use manpower, you need to use a cook, our family can allocate manpower." ”
Chanyi naturally didn't agree to come down, but just played Tai Chi with Mrs. Zheng, saying that she would definitely open her mouth if she needed to.
After greeting like this for a while, Second Mrs. Zheng took Zheng Ning and left.
Chan Yi rubbed her face that was almost smiling, and just as she was about to leave, Jinping hurriedly came over and handed the box with gifts left by Mrs. Zheng Er to Chan Yi, "Princess, the things that Mrs. Zheng Er gave here are a little too valuable!" ”
The name post lying in the box, such a graceful and fluttering unique style of font, is the famous post "Fang Poem" by Zhao Ji of Song Huizong.
Chanyi was very surprised, "This ......" came prepared! These four words should come to mind.
No wonder she talked to her for so long, and after playing Tai Chi for so long, she guessed what she was busy with recently at the beginning, so she prepared a generous gift.
"Do you want the slave to be sent back?" Jinping saw Chanyi's surprised appearance and was a little worried.
"No need!" A smile flashed on Chanyi's face, "Second Mrs. Zheng is a smart person, since she has sent such a generous gift, she must have asked for something, and I can probably know the current situation of the Zheng family." ”
The Zheng family's temptation is actually to throw stones to ask for directions, if Prince An's Mansion has this meaning, she will not refuse, Chanyi is also worried about this matter at this time, she can have a pillow to send when she is sleepy, or the one she wants, she naturally will not refuse.
Instructed Jinping: "In a few days, a banquet will be held in the palace, you go to prepare a flower post, and invite several good friends in the city, Mrs. Zheng doesn't need to be invited, give Mrs. Zheng the next post, our palace may not have held a banquet for a long time, and the magnolia flowers in the courtyard are blooming just right." ”
Jinping nodded and went down to prepare.
Within a few days, Mrs. Zheng brought Zheng Er's grandmother Qian, the third grandmother Lan, and the fourth grandmother Li of the Zheng family, as well as her own daughter Zheng Ning to the banquet.
Most of the people invited were officials, for example, the wife of the Lu Shu family and the wife of the prefect's family, as soon as the two of them saw that the young generation of female dependents of the Zheng family had come, they immediately understood what was going on, and talked to Mrs. Zheng Er with a friendly face.
"I went back to Yunzhou a few days ago, and I learned that my father was promoted to the prefect of Yunzhou," Mrs. Zheng smiled gently, but she didn't dare to underestimate what she said, "My father said that the prefect is just a four-grade official, and the banquet inevitably looks frivolous, so I celebrated with my family." ”
But Yunzhou is too close to Yunfu City, and those who can be the prefect of Yunzhou will inevitably be transferred to Yunfu City to stay in the Sixth Department.
"Lord Cai is an official and fair, and it is not surprising that he can be promoted to the prefect of Yunzhou," Mrs. Lu is very good at talking, even if it is a compliment, it can make people feel comfortable, "Besides, Yunzhou is a place with very good geographical features, and it will inevitably be promoted in a few years." ”
"I'll borrow your good words." Second Mrs. Zheng's smile was subtle, but there was no frivolity in her joy, which is what people dare not underestimate.
