Chapter 58 You Can Receive Gifts
When they reached the door, Zheng Sisi went to the gatehouse first to admire the plaque.
The plaque was covered with red silk cloth. Zheng Sisi lifted it up and saw that it was a large piece of wood with delicate carvings on the four sides. The two characters "Zheng Mansion" in the middle were vigorous and majestic. The whole plaque was painted dark red, and the characters in the middle were painted black.
Zheng Sisi nodded as she looked at it: "Yeah, it looks good!"
Nanny Li, who came with her, arranged for the guards to find ladders and tools, and then asked the doorman Uncle Ma and the guards to open all the doors.
Just as the door opened, before they stepped out, they saw the Third Prince and Zhong Ruiyu approaching.
The third prince had arranged people to keep an eye on them. As soon as the two ministers arrived at Zheng's mansion, the third prince received the news.
The two men approached, bowed to Zheng Sisi and said, "Miss Zheng, congratulations."
Zheng Sisi: "Thank you! Thank you!"
They all stood at the door waiting for the plaque to be hung.
Zheng Sisi slapped her thigh and said, "I forgot, I haven't bought the whip yet?" She was just about to ask someone to buy it.
Minister Li stopped her and said, "Zheng Sisi, don't worry, I have brought him here." Then he pointed to the entourage he brought with him.
Zheng Sisi said: "Uncle is really thoughtful!"
"No, no, I just want to take advantage of the girl's blessing." Minister Li said with a smile.
The Third Prince raised his eyes and glanced at Minister Li: "Old fox!"
After the plaque was hung up, Zheng Sisi ran to light the firecrackers. There was a crackling sound and it was very lively. The red firecracker wrapping paper spread all over the floor, and it was full of joy.
Zheng Sisi was still happy when Minister Zhong said, "Congratulations, Miss Zheng, on moving into a new home. This is a small gift, not much of a token of respect!"
Then he took the gift box from the follower and handed it over.
Zheng Sisi was confused: "You can also receive gifts!"
Nanny Li looked at the silly look of the girl, walked forward with a smile and took the gift box from Minister Zhong's hand.
Zheng Sisi hurriedly said: "Thank you! Thank you Uncle Zhong, hehe!"
Minister Li also presented the gift he had brought with him.
After taking it, Nanny Li handed it to the maid behind her.
The third prince walked up to Zheng Sisi and said, "Congratulations, Miss Zheng, on your new home!"
Then he took out a big red envelope from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Zheng Sisi.
Zheng Sisi took it and said, "Thank you, Third Prince, for your trouble."
But in my heart I was muttering, "There are also people who give me money directly, which is exactly what I want."
Seeing Zheng Sisi accept the red envelope, Zhong Ruiyu also squeezed over and said, "Congratulations, Miss Zheng, on your new home!"
Zheng Sisi smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you! You're so polite!"
Zhong Ruiyu: "You're welcome. We are partners after all."
Minister Zhong, who was standing next to him, was still wondering why his bastard son had come as well. When he heard about the partner, his ears pricked up even higher.
Minister Li also looked curiously at the partners they mentioned, but unfortunately he only said this and nothing else.
Zheng Sisi invited several people into the house for tea, and they agreed.
Minister Zhong pulled his son's sleeve and whispered, "What did you do to become partners?"
Zhong Ruiyu: "It was Miss Zheng who led us to farm, but I can't explain the details."
Then he broke free from his sleeves and ran away.
Minister Li only heard "farming" in the back. He thought to himself that if he brought the Third Prince and Young Master Zhong to farm, no, he would have to grow vegetables at home too. He would find a chance to ask Miss Zheng later.
Several people were sitting in the hall and hadn't even had their tea when a servant came running over to report, "Young lady, Lord Liu and Prince Liu from the Marquis' Mansion are asking to see you."
Zheng Sisi understood that he was returning the dowry, so she said, "Please invite them in."
The servant retreated after hearing the instructions.
A few people continued to drink tea and chat.
