Chapter 417 The 3rd Prince's Bride Gift Arrives
Zheng Sisi turned around and handed the imperial edict to Nanny Li. She quickly took out a silver note worth one thousand taels from the space and put it into her purse using her wide sleeves.
Zheng Sisi stuffed the purse into Eunuch Mu's pocket and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Mu. This is a little money for tea. Please accept it."
Zheng Sisi was so nice to her, but Eunuch Mu refused to accept it, but Zheng Sisi forced it in. Zheng Sisi said, "Anping knows that you are nice to me, it's just a small token of my appreciation. I'd like to invite everyone to have tea, so please accept it."
Eunuch Mu glanced at the person who followed him, but still felt embarrassed to take it. Holding the thin banknote in his hand, he thought it should be one hundred taels, so he did not refuse.
Zheng Sisi invited everyone into the house for tea, and Eunuch Mu agreed because he thought there would be more shows to watch later.
Before everyone turned around and took a few steps, they heard a commotion at the door.
"Whose are these? There are so many gifts!"
"It's the Third Prince. I saw there was an official mediator. Is this the Third Prince coming to offer his betrothal gifts?"
"Hurry up and count how many betrothal gifts there are!"
"This is a triple blessing for Princess Anping!"
"What a blessing! The Third Prince is a good man that all the noble ladies in the capital want to marry."
"........."
When Zheng Sisi heard the noise, she wanted to go out to see what was going on, but was stopped by Old Madam Zheng. Although she was old, she was not deaf, and she heard the people say that the Third Prince had come to propose marriage.
Zheng Sisi said: "Grandma, I was just curious, so I hid at the door to take a look."
Madam Zheng said, "No need to go, she will come in soon."
Zheng Sisi was puzzled as to who would come in.
As soon as he finished speaking, a woman came in from the gate. She was wearing a red official uniform, a big red flower on her head, and her makeup was so exquisite that it was amazing.
Every step she took was filled with grace and confidence, as if she was the center of the world.
A closer look revealed that what she was wearing was not a real official uniform, but something similar to it, but more gorgeous. This unique outfit made her stand out in the crowd.
Behind her, there were many people carrying various items in their hands, forming a long line.
Sheng Zhen was also among them. He walked in front with a serious face. Qingfeng, who followed him, was holding a pair of wild geese in his hands, as if showing people some important ceremony.
The people in the team were holding many things that Zheng Sisi had never seen before. These items were of different shapes and colorful, which made her very curious.
The woman walked towards Zheng Sisi with a smile, her eyes full of admiration.
She praised Zheng Sisi's beauty and intelligence generously, which made Zheng Sisi feel a little shy. At this time, Zheng Sisi realized that this woman was actually a matchmaker!
The main thing is that this matchmaker is different from what I heard and saw on TV. There is a big red flower but no iconic matchmaker mole. The big flowered clothes are also different. This dress is too formal, almost like an official uniform.
She accepted the matchmaker's compliments in a daze. The matchmaker was very eloquent and praised her and Sheng Zhen as if they were gods in heaven.
Old Madam Zheng and several maids knew that Zheng Sisi had no common sense in this area, so they quickly invited the matchmaker to the flower hall, and Eunuch Mu was also invited in.
There were also people from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory who came to deliver the betrothal gifts, and there were even more people carrying the betrothal gifts. Everyone in the palace was busy and orderly greeting them.
Sheng Zhen walked up to Zheng Sisi, looked at her silly look and smiled. He asked, "Why, are you scared?"
Zheng Sisi glared at him and said, "Sheng Zhen, when did you plan all this? Why didn't I hear you say it?"
Sheng Zhen said: "If I tell you, there will be no surprises!"
Zheng Sisi looked at the betrothal gifts that were still being carried into the mansion and asked, "Why did you prepare so many things?"
Sheng Zhen found it funny. Didn't this silly girl know that the more betrothal gifts she received, the more face she would have and the more glorious her wedding would be? In order to support her, he had been collecting rare and precious antiques for a long time.
He said, "This is all my property. I will give it to my wife for safekeeping. You have to think about my future life and give me food to eat!"
Zheng Sisi asked out of nowhere: "Since you are here to propose marriage, should I hide in the backyard and not come out?"
Sheng Zhen didn't know what Zheng Sisi meant by asking this, so he nodded and said, "It should be like this normally."
Then I heard someone next to me say, "Goodbye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away quickly, bringing with him a gust of wind.
Sheng Zhen sighed helplessly as he watched her running back. You have to pamper your woman and tolerate her temper.
No one came to pick up the wild goose in Qingfeng's hand, so he walked over and asked, "Master, why did the princess run away? And she ran so fast, as if a dog was chasing her."
