Nongmen Blessed Wife: Xiaojiao Bao Wangfu became rich

Chapter 54 Are You Short of Money?
Zheng Mingxiu has embroidered a lot of handkerchiefs in the past two days, which are beautiful and delicate.

Although her arm was injured, it didn't affect her embroidering. She always worked swiftly and swiftly, so she finished embroidering thirty veils.

In the early morning of this day, seeing Zheng Liying and Wu Qingwei enthusiastically developing lipstick, Zheng Mingxiu put the handkerchief in the basket with a smile, talked to Mrs. Cai, and went out alone.

I heard that there is a big fair today, and you can buy and sell some gadgets without renting a booth.

Zheng Mingxiu happily walked towards Daji, hoping to get a good seat early.

When she arrived, there were already crowds of people, and many vendors had already sold a lot of things. Zheng Mingxiu was dumbfounded, thinking that it was still too late, so she randomly found a corner, sat down, and spread out the handkerchief she embroidered.

Passers-by looked at this beautiful lady curiously.

She is actually very thin-skinned, as long as someone takes a second look, she will turn red and bow her head. Some people start to joke and ask her what she sells and how much money, her voice is like a mosquito humming. Really, more and more men are drawing attention to her side.

Zheng Mingxiu's heart was beating very fast. She had never sold anything before. Hearing what Qingwei said was such a hype, she wanted to give it a try. Who would have thought that she couldn't open her mouth at all!
Seeing that several men had malicious smiles in their eyes, Zheng Mingxiu panicked and wanted to pack up his things and go home.

At this time, a childish voice sounded: "Father, look, isn't that the aunt who saved me that day?"

Zheng Mingxiu was startled, then raised his head, and saw the Fourth Prince standing tall and tall in front of her at some point, leading the son she saved that day with one hand, and holding a super big candied haws in the other, The two just looked at her without blinking.

-

Zheng Mingxiu sat awkwardly in the private room of the tea house, watching the Fourth Prince drinking tea with a good temperament, like a fairy.

She took a sip of the tea in front of her, it was really bitter, frowned, and put it on the table.

The fourth prince looked at her with a smile: "Today is also a coincidence. Yuan'er insisted on eating the candied haws, so I took him for a stroll. I didn't expect to meet you. Is your hand feeling better?"

Zheng Mingxiu hurriedly said: "It's much better, there's nothing wrong with it, and it's thanks to the doctor's superb medical skills in the prince's residence."

The fourth prince laughed: "That's good. Are you embroidering these handkerchiefs?"

Zheng Mingxiu nodded: "Yes. I embroidered these two days, and I want to sell them for some money."

"Are you short of money?" The fourth prince looked at these handkerchiefs and frowned.The embroidery is very good, vivid, and this embroidery method is a bit familiar.

But... Doesn't she know that her hand is injured?
Zheng Mingxiu was taken aback for a moment, remembering that the Fourth Prince had rewarded him with so much money and a lot of good things just two days ago, he hurriedly said in panic: "No, no... It doesn't matter if you embroider these things, my hands are fine. When you have nothing to do at home, you want to do something...you can't just eat rice."

The fourth prince's eyes flickered slightly, and he picked up the teacup in front of him: "Eat plain rice? How could you think like this in your own home? Your husband-in-law dislikes you?"

"How could it be!" Zheng Mingxiu blushed, "No one despises me... My family treats me very well. It's me, and I want to do my part for the family."

The fourth prince put down the teacup: "If the family is short of work, you can tell me. My palace is short of a groom, you can ask your husband to come over and have a try."

Zheng Mingxiu shook his hand vigorously, his eyes flustered, thinking about what the family had discussed together, biting his lips: "The prince's kindness, the lady appreciates it. It's just... the husband of the lady passed away many years ago, Now I am living in my natal family, and I am not short of work.”

The more Zheng Mingxiu spoke, the lower her voice became. This casual lie... really killed her!

The fourth prince nodded, with a strange gleam in his eyes, he took a sip of tea, covering up the emotions on his face, and when he put down the teacup, he couldn't help being in a good mood when he saw the face of the lady in front of him getting redder: "I think that naughty boy from Laiyuan'er has finished shopping, how about we go find him and come back?"

Zheng Mingxiu looked up, looking at the fourth prince's warm and kind smile and burning eyes, he panicked and didn't know what to do, in the end he could only lower his head hastily, bit his lips, and nodded.

-

Grandma Cai opened her mouth wide. Seeing that her daughter was sent back by a group of people, she ran over in a hurry, "Xiu'er...you got hurt again, didn't you?"

Seeing Mrs. Cai holding her hand to look up and down, Zheng Mingxiu laughed and said, "Mother, my daughter is fine. I met the fourth prince and the eldest son at the Daji today. They sent me back because they were afraid that I would be in danger alone."

Grandma Cai was taken aback, and turned to look at the incomparably noble father and son, but she felt very strange in her heart: "So this is the Fourth Prince... Thank you, Fourth Prince... Linger... quickly call Mingzhou out!" Mother Zheng hurriedly called Father Zheng.

The fourth prince waved his hand and looked at the small courtyard of Zheng's family: "There is no need to mobilize people like this. Today was a coincidence... I will send Madam Zheng back, and I will leave now."

The prince also took Zheng Mingxiu's hand: "Auntie, let's go, see you next time!"

After finishing speaking, the fourth prince took a deep look at Zheng Mingxiu, then turned and left with a group of people.

Granny Cai stood up straight, staring blankly at the back of the fourth prince going away, thinking about the "uninteresting" look in the fourth prince's eyes just now, her heart became more and more worried.

She wanted to say something to her daughter, but she saw Zheng Mingxiu staring straight at the door, blushing, biting her lip, wondering what she was thinking.

Mrs. Cai and Mrs. Zheng looked at each other, and they both saw something in each other's eyes.

In the evening, Mrs. Cai sent Zheng Liying away with a smile, and sat next to Zheng Mingxiu: "Xiu'er. During the day, you and the Fourth Prince...what's going on?"

Zheng Mingxiu was taken aback for a moment: "It's nothing!"

"Then why did he send you back in such a mobilizing way?" Mrs. Cai obviously didn't believe it.

Zheng Mingxiu laughed helplessly: "Mother... Isn't this the last time he rewarded me with 1000 taels of silver... He thought I was injured in my hand and went out to sell things because I was short of money, so I took the initiative to find a job for our family. Later I Said that I don't have a husband-in-law, so he decided to buy all the handkerchiefs and gave me 30 taels of silver!"

Mrs. Cai was dumbfounded: "30 taels? Your handkerchief can only be sold for ten coins a piece, and he will give you one tael? Does he know that you don't have a husband?"

Zheng Mingxiu's eyes sparkled: "Yes. It's not the prince who takes care of me. I don't want my hands to deteriorate. This is rewarding me in disguise!"

Mrs. Cai turned her head away, the corners of her mouth drooping, only her innocent daughter would think this way!
Mrs. Cai coughed softly: "Xiu'er. Mom was thinking, we also came to Fucheng, and everything started again... Mrs. Meng next door also reminded me that day, if there is a suitable family, why don't I meet you?" Sample?"

Zheng Mingxiu's face turned pale in an instant: "Mom...you dislike your daughter for staying at home?"

Mrs. Cai smiled and said, "How come? Mother will raise you for the rest of your life! But you are still young, so you can't stay married for the rest of your life... There was no way before..."

Seeing Zheng Mingxiu bit her lip and remained silent, Mrs. Cai sighed and grabbed her daughter's hand; "Our family is just an ordinary family. We didn't even think about Huang Guihua that day. You have a hard life and have never been married. Man, mother just wants you to live in peace and stability for the rest of your life, marrying an honest and responsible woman. It turns out that there is a wealthy businessman from other places who wants you to be a concubine... But mother is reluctant, I don't want you to be married for the rest of your life. Keep your heads down and be small."

Zheng Mingxiu's heart twitched. Looking at Granny Cai's worried expression, she thought of the small cluster of sparks she had just started, and they were extinguished like this.

Mother is right...what on earth is she thinking...how is she worthy?Even being a concubine is not worthy!
Although with my current conditions, it is not easy to find a first marriage, but it is not difficult to find a man of the same age as the second marriage.

Zheng Mingxiu smiled wryly: "Mother is right. If there is a suitable family, I will go and have a look."

Seeing her daughter's disappointed expression, Mrs. Cai sighed and touched her daughter's head distressedly.
