The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 685: Making Friends

Douzi answered, "Yes, it was Miss Jiang. It was Miss Jiang who explained Miss Meng's identity to her. After Miss Meng heard it, she jumped into the lake to save her."

After knowing his daughter's identity, he went into the water to save her. This forced Zhu Xiye to think more deeply: "Miss Meng is the cousin of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."

"Father is saying that father is the Crown Prince's man, and Miss Meng knows this, so she lent a helping hand to her daughter?" Zhu Shu was born big and strong, and like Zhu Xiye, he looked like the kind of person who only knew how to use his fists and feet but not his brain, but in fact he was different.

Zhu Xiye was misunderstood by outsiders because he deliberately concealed his abilities. It was not until he met the wise ruler Li Shou that his true abilities were revealed.

Zhu Shu is just an ordinary daughter of a minor official. She is not stupid, but also not smart. In short, she is just an ordinary girl. She has no problem with her normal thinking and can understand the simple things, but don't make things difficult for her with the deep things.

At this moment, it is a very simple truth.

She hit the nail on the head.

Zhu Xiye looked at his eldest daughter who looked exactly like him, feeling guilty: "The bullying you suffered outside was also related to your father being the Crown Prince's man. Even your appearance was caused by your father, which is why you are still unable to get married at the age of twenty."

"What did father say? Don't say that again in the future." Zhu Shu was very concerned about her appearance before she came of age. After she came of age, she went to many marriage interviews, which made her see the cruelty of reality. Today, five years later, she no longer cares about her appearance, and it is even more impossible for her to blame her father for it.

Zhu Xiye listened, thinking of Meng Shisan in his heart, and then took a look at his own sturdy daughter. He suddenly had an idea: "Wait for Miss Meng to come out of the palace, tomorrow morning... No, we still need some generous gifts, which require careful selection and time. Then wait until the afternoon, in the afternoon, and let your mother bring you to thank you for saving your life. From now on, you must... make friends with Miss Meng."

"Okay, then I'll go find my mother later and ask her to send a visiting card to the eldest lady of the Meng Mansion first." Zhu Shu was a careless person, but she was not rude. Now that Zhu Xiye had agreed to go to the Meng Mansion in person to express her gratitude, she immediately made arrangements.

Although I think I can get in if I go directly to the Meng Mansion tomorrow afternoon, since there is still time, I still have to be as polite as possible.

After all, she was going to visit Miss Meng tomorrow to thank her for saving her life, not to go over to her house and cause dislike.

Shang received Mrs. Zhu's visiting card after the golden crow set in the west, just when it was time to light the lamps. She leaned in front of the lamp and read it. Combined with the news from the mansion today about Meng Shisanyong saving Zhu Shu, she understood what was going on.

They will come tomorrow afternoon. Mrs. Zhu and Miss Zhu are here to thank her niece for saving her life.

Stepping out of Zehui Courtyard, she walked towards Shanfang Courtyard of the second house.

After Wu learned that Meng Shisan was taken away directly from Bixu Manor by Li Shou, brought directly into the palace and taken straight to the East Palace, she sat quietly.

I can't tell what I'm thinking, nor what I should be thinking.

She was just a little confused.

Meng Meijing had been sitting like this with Wu for a long time. Ever since she returned to the second room from the Buddhist hall at Old Lady Meng's place, she did not go back to her own Wanfei Courtyard, but came to Shanfang Courtyard.

Her original intention was to think that her mother must have known that her elder sister had been brought into the palace by His Highness, so she came here to talk to her mother, and she also needed someone to talk to her.

In the Buddhist temple, except for talking to her at the beginning and answering her questions, her grandmother just kept picking up Buddhist beans and didn't say anything else. She accompanied her but didn't dare to speak again. Unexpectedly, after arriving at Shanfangyuan, Wu said a few words at the beginning, but now she has been sitting there blankly. She couldn't understand what her mother was thinking, and she couldn't get an answer even if she asked.

In the end, she could only sit and stare blankly with her mother, just like she had accompanied her grandmother to pick beans.

When Shang arrived, this is what he saw: "What happened?"

Wu was startled, turned around and saw Shang, and stood up immediately: "Sister-in-law!"

"What's wrong with you? You were so engrossed in your thoughts that you didn't even notice I was here." Shang said as she walked into the house.

"Aunt." Meng Meijing called out.

"Meijing is here too. What are you doing?" Wu didn't answer her. Shang turned around and asked Meng Meijing.

Meng Meijing shook her head: "I didn't do anything, just sat and waited."

"What are you waiting for?" Shang asked.

Meng Meijing replied: "Wait for sister to come back."

"Yes..." Wu seemed to have finally come to her senses. She walked over and took Shang's arm and sat down next to her. "Sister-in-law, is Yaoyao okay?"

"What could possibly happen? That's His Highness." Shang's implication was that that was Li Shou, the biological son of their aunt, Empress Xianyuan, who passed away earlier in the Meng Mansion. "He and Yaoyao are blood cousins. Besides, His Highness has always loved Yaoyao very much and would never let Yaoyao suffer any injustice."

Mrs. Wu nodded: "That's good... Sister-in-law, has this incident today affected Yaoyao's reputation?"

"Of course there is an impact." Shang was a little worried when he mentioned this. He was not as calm as he seemed. "Were you thinking about this just now?"

"Yes, but I'm useless and can't think of anything." Wu is Meng Shisan's stepmother. She used to treat the original owner badly. Although she has made up for it a little now, there is still a gap. "Sister-in-law also knows that Yaoyao treats me... I don't know how to get close to Yaoyao. Anyway, I feel relieved to see Meijing and her elder sister getting along well. If Yaoyao really... that's good too. I'm just afraid that what happened today will have a bad impact on Yaoyao."

After all, they are sisters. As the eldest sister, Meng Shisan has a bad reputation, which has some impact on the reputation of her younger sister, Meng Meijing.

Although Meng Meijing is still young this year, as a mother, she always has to make long-term plans.

Compared to Wu, Shang was more capable of planning for her own children. She had two sons, and she had to take great pains to plan for each of them. As soon as Wu opened her mouth, she understood what she really meant: "Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."

"With what my sister-in-law said, I feel relieved." Mrs. Wu finally showed her first smile from the bottom of her heart today after she learned about what happened to Meng Shisan.

Meng Meijing was listening nearby. Although she didn't hear everything as thoroughly as Shang, she knew her daughter best because her mother knew her best. Conversely, she understood Wu's meaning to some extent: "Mother, now that my aunt has said this, please don't think too much and assume the worst."
