Chapter 1067 - 242: Procrastination of Marriage Matters_4
Thinking over and over, Second Madam Zheng sized up Zheng Yuehan again and couldn’t help but think she was far better than Xie Yi and Pei Qin, breaking into a smile on her face, "We’ll go another day, and next time I’ll take you with me!" Before, the gatekeepers could say the lady of the house wasn’t in and didn’t entertain visitors, but now that Pei Qin had made an appearance, they certainly couldn’t continue to look down their noses and keep people out.
Zheng Yuehan actually wanted to visit Tiance General Mansion more, "I heard that its scenery is all modeled after the landscapes of Jiangnan, and they even have water lilies. It would be wonderful to explore there just once!"
General Pei of Tiance General Mansion was someone they absolutely couldn’t reach, with many young ladies wishing to marry him, but because Princess Xiyun and General Pei harbored intentions for each other, the rest could only watch from afar.
Second Madam Zheng said, "If General Pei is going to marry, I reckon he won’t marry anyone but Princess Xi Yun, unless it’s some other princess! But they say he’s not quite as handsome and charming as Mo Heng." She dismissed the unrealistic thoughts; after all, fantasizing wouldn’t lead to any gains. She needed to think more for her daughter, to secure Mo Heng!
"I’ve only ever seen his figure from behind, never his face in person. When are you going again, Mother?" Zheng Yuehan asked eagerly.
"In a few days." She needed to come up with a plan and also make two new dresses for her daughter, and buy her some new jewelry, ideally when Mo Heng was at home.
But Pei Qin no longer wanted to see them and even told Pei Wendong, "You focus on your studies for now! As for the betrothal, we can discuss it after your examinations."
Pei Wendong’s eyes flickered, "Alright, eldest sister! I will study hard these days!"
Having said her piece, Pei Qin entered the house to coax Jiujiu and Xixi to nap, "When you wake up, there will be delicious food waiting."
"Mother, tell us a story!" Xixi tugged at her.
