I haven't seen him for many days, and seeing Mrs. Zhou's exaggerated appearance again makes Xiaoman more and more uncomfortable.

In fact, since the last time the mother and daughter of the Zhou family were willing to take out all their money and lend it to Xiaoman, she had already relented, wanted to cut off contact with them, and wanted to terminate her whole person plan.

So when the mother and daughter of the Zhou family didn't come to the door for a long time, Xiaoman also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, it's better to cut off contact like this.

Unexpectedly, the two of them came again today, and their attitudes were even more attentive than before.

Xiaoman had a headache.

She squeezed out a smile and said, "Mrs. Zhou, you are too exaggerated, I am just a little injured, it doesn't matter, you don't have to come to see me." ”

"How can this work?" Mrs. Zhou stepped forward, stuffed the paper bag that Zhou Xiaoxiao was carrying into the arms of the little maid on the side, and said with a smile: "This is the medicinal herbs that Xiaoxiao and I brought from our hometown, which are the most precious and rarest!" The county lord must accept it. ”

Canglan is so cold all year round, even though there are many mountains, but the medicinal herbs are also scarce and pitiful.

Looking at the bag of medicinal materials that was stuffed into the maid's arms, although it looked small, in a country like Canglan, such a bag of medicinal materials would definitely cost a lot of money, not to mention, Mrs. Zhou said that this is the most precious and rare medicinal material.

Xiao Man was even more embarrassed, she hurriedly waved her hand to let the maid go back, and then said, "Mrs. Zhou, I really can't ask for your medicinal materials, you better take them back." ”

"County Lord, are you too outward?" Mrs. Zhou was a little embarrassed, looked at the paper bag of medicinal herbs that was returned, frowned and said: "This is a little bit of my heart and Xiaoxiao's heart, if you don't accept it, our mother and son will not be happy." ”

"Mrs. Zhou, I really don't need it." Xiaoman explained helplessly.

Xu is Xiaoman's attitude was resolute, and Zhou Xiaoxiao finally noticed something abnormal, she pulled Mrs. Zhou's arm and whispered to her not to speak again.

Then, she stepped forward and smiled, and asked a little cautiously: "County Lord, what we asked you about before, now... How's it going? ”

Speaking of this matter, Xiao Man was even more helpless, she said: "Mrs. Zhou, it's not that I don't help you, but you have also seen that my house has been very quiet recently, and I really don't have the energy to do other things." ”

As soon as these words came out, the mother and daughter of the Zhou family changed their faces.

Mrs. Zhou was still hesitating with a paper bag, but when she heard this, she immediately wrinkled her brows, rushed to Zhou Xiaoxiao with an arrow, and shouted: "What did the county lord say?" What does that mean? ”

"County Lord, you obviously promised to be good before, how can you ...... it now" Zhou Xiaoxiao looked incredulous and disappointed.

Xiao Man rubbed his eyebrows, and was about to say something, when he heard Mrs. Zhou say again: "Actually, it's nothing if the county lord doesn't help us Xiaoxiao, anyway, now we have found a more suitable person." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Man raised his eyes, slightly surprised.

Mrs. Zhou raised her chin, judging the two of them from her previous courteous appearance, she took Zhou Xiaoxiao's hand, and said proudly: "We Xiaoxiao has a good temperament and looks beautiful, even if there is no county lord to say matchmaking, we can marry a good family!" ”

As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows sideways at Zhou Xiaoxiao and said, "Say, who did we meet just now?" What did he say again, just say it, let the county lord see and understand, so that the county lord knows that we are not unwanted! ”

When it came to this matter, Zhou Xiaoxiao coughed lightly, her face was full of shyness and pride, she couldn't help but raise her chin, and said proudly: "Just now, there was another prince who showed favor to me, and he also said that he would go to the king and marry me!" From now on, I will be the princess! ”

Rajah... Just......

Almost instantly, Xiao Man thought of Chu Yu.

Xiao Man, who was still a little guilty, immediately raised a smile, and it was the kind from the heart, she nodded and said happily: "That's great!" Xiaoxiao, your mother and your wish have finally come true, congratulations. ”

As if she didn't expect Xiaoman to react like this, Zhou Xiaoxiao was stunned, and then became more and more arrogant, and she spoke politely: "County Lord, I will be the princess in the future, the wife of the prince of Zheng'er, and you are different from you, the foreign county lord." ”

These words, openly and secretly, are satirizing Xiaoman's position as the county lord is not serious.

But Xiaoman was not angry, he was still smiling, "That's great, congratulations." ”

Seeing Xiaoman is like a cotton, no matter how much effort he makes to fight down, the other party is smiling, not angry at all, this week the mother and daughter don't know which tendon is wrong, and they start to compete with her.

"County Lord, your County Lord's Mansion is really big, and the interior decoration is also beautiful, but if you go back to Donglan, I'm afraid you won't be able to live in such a good house, right?"

"There are also these subordinates, I saw a lot of maids and subordinates in the families of those royal children, and there are only a few people in the county lord's house, there are a few of them, why, didn't the king reward the county lord with some subordinates?"

"Speaking of which, the prince we saw just now seems to have come out of the county lord's mansion, but his face is not very good, what's the matter, did the county lord quarrel with him?"

When she said this, she pursed her lips and smiled quietly for a long time, she followed the appearance of the mother and daughter of the Zhou family, deliberately pretended to be light-hearted, and said casually: "Oh, yes? We did get into a fight, and then I gave him a couple of slaps. ”

Mrs. Zhou, who hadn't reacted yet, pursed her lips and smiled, "Really?" You also gave the prince a few bars - what? How many slaps did you give the prince?! ”

Mrs. Zhou's eyes were as wide as bull's eyes, and she kept staring at Xiao Man, completely forgetting the difference between dignity and inferiority.

"County Lord, you... You are too ......" Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes widened, and she looked at Xiaoman in a daze, not knowing what to say for a while.

Seeing that he had achieved the effect he wanted, Xiao Man pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, his voice was soft, and his face was full of indifference: "Yes, he is disrespectful, so I have to teach him a lesson." ”

"But he's a prince!" Zhou Xiaoxiao shouted.

Xiao Man glanced at Zhou Xiaoxiao, laughed contemptuously, and pretended to persuade earnestly: "This marriage is not a word, why are you in such a hurry to start speaking for Chu Yu?" Xiaoxiao, if you don't know how to restrain yourself, I'm afraid it will make people laugh. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao closed her mouth stupidly, even though her face was still very unwilling, but she didn't dare to speak again.

The room was completely quiet, and even a needle could be heard, at this time, Xiao Man lowered his eyes to look at the mother and daughter of the Zhou family, although he was smiling, but this gaze was terrifying, she said: "What, do you also want to experience the treatment of a prince?" ”

Both of them lowered their heads, looking like they were eager to find a crack in the ground to get into, which looked very funny.

Seeing this, Xiao Man cleared his throat and said unhurriedly: "Since Xiaoxiao is also going to get married, it is better to come to my county lord's mansion less in the future, after all, I have a lot of people here, in case there is that slave who is not long-eyed and uninteresting to tell the grievances between Miss Zhou and the Ouyang family and the Zhang family, then I can-"

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhou hurriedly pulled Zhou Xiaoxiao to kneel, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, we will never bother the county lord again in the future, and please don't tell the county lord about the previous matter!" ”

Others don't know, but they know in their hearts what the reason for the grievances with the Zhang family and the Ouyang family was.

Now if Zhou Xiaoxiao can cling to Chu Yu, the prince, then the previous matter must not be mentioned again, otherwise it will harm Xiaoxiao! At least he was disgusted by the prince, and at worst, he couldn't marry the prince!

"Let's go, don't turn those things over." Zhou Xiaoxiao bit her lip, kowtowed reluctantly, and pleaded.

"Yes, yes, let's go."

After speaking, Mrs. Zhou picked up Zhou Xiaoxiao and walked out, taking advantage of the situation and putting aside the paper-wrapped medicinal materials she brought, and said as she walked: "This medicinal material will be left to the county lord to recuperate!" ”

Seeing that the mother and daughter of the Zhou family ran away, Xiaoman couldn't help it anymore and laughed out loud.

happened to catch up with the pearl and came back, looking at Xiao Man, who was still frowning when she left, but she was smiling happily at this time, she couldn't help asking: "Madame has encountered any happy events, why are you so happy?" ”

"The mother and daughter of the Zhou family came just now." Xiao Man got up with the support of the little maid, and then walked to the pearl and described what had just happened.

Pearl couldn't help but laugh a few times when she heard this, "It seems that Madame has been quiet for a long time." However, Xiaoxiao and Wang Ye have only met once this week, and it is a bit hasty to finalize such a major event as getting married, right? I don't know if the prince is playing with her. ”

Xiao Man pursed his lips and smiled, "I hope she can really marry Chu Yu, so that she will never come to me again and make a fuss about letting me tell her a matchmaker." ”

"That's right." Pearl nodded and smiled.

The two talked and laughed, and then Xiao Qi and Qi Ming and others came in, and while telling Xiao Man what happened before, they took Xiao Man to the place where the cherry tree was placed in the backyard.

After arriving in the backyard, Xiaoman also understood the whole thing clearly.

She frowned and asked, "Does this Chu Yu often go out of the city?" I remember the last time I saw him before, he had just come back from outside the city, and this time he also came back from outside the city, how could he, a prince, go out of the city so often? ”

If he really has something, then he can also leave it to his subordinates to do, so why bother to go by himself every time?

Xiao Qi thought that Xiao Man would reprimand himself and Qi Ming, but he didn't want the other party to ask this, he scratched his head and said puzzledly: "What Madam said is also right, but we also met the prince halfway, so we don't know very well." ”

"It's strange to say, a prince, going out to ride such an ordinary carriage. If he hadn't gotten out of the carriage himself, we wouldn't have imagined that it was the prince sitting in the carriage! Qi Ming said.

Xiao Qi echoed, "That's it! Who would have thought that in such a humble carriage was the prince! ”
