Chapter 187 My heart beat faster
The third prince looked back and saw no one. He lowered his head and saw Zheng Sisi squatting.
The third prince squatted down and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Zheng Sisi shook her head, and thinking that he couldn't see, she said in a muffled voice, "It's okay."
The Third Prince reached out, holding Zheng Sisi's arm with one hand and pulling her up: "I didn't mean to do that, I stopped because I was trying to open the door."
Zheng Sisi said "hmm" to indicate that she understood.
The third prince held her in his arms with one hand, opened the door with one hand and led Zheng Sisi out of the study.
Zheng Sisi supported herself on her knees with both hands. It took her a minute to recover. She rubbed her nose gently and stood up when she felt the pain was gone. She said to Sheng Zhen, "I'm fine."
The Third Prince was afraid that she would force herself, so he said, "Are you sure?"
Zheng Sisi said, "Well, it's really okay. It hurt when I first bumped into it, but now I'm fine. Let's go. It's getting late."
Zheng Sisi walked in front, using the light of the lanterns in the corridor to head towards the backyard, and the third prince followed behind.
The third prince stared at Zheng Sisi walking in front of him, wondering what kind of person she was. Sometimes she couldn't stand a loss, sometimes she was very tolerant, and sometimes she was carefree. But the third prince still liked her straightforward and open-minded personality.
The third prince didn't know what was wrong with him. He shook his head and continued walking forward.
After sending Zheng Sisi to the third courtyard, Zheng Sisi turned around and said, "I'm here, you go back, good night!"
The third prince replied: "Good night!"
After watching Zheng Sisi enter the house and close the door, the third prince turned around and returned to his own courtyard.
After returning to her room, Zheng Sisi quickly took out a mirror and was relieved when she saw that her face was intact without even a red mark.
When the Third Prince hugged her just now, she felt like her heart was about to jump out. Now thinking about it, her face still felt a little hot. Zheng Sisi despised herself. With a thirty-year-old soul, she was still bewitched by an ancient man who was ten years younger than her. Her face turned red and her heartbeat accelerated just because she was hugged. She was too ashamed to face people.
Zheng Sisi calmed down for a long time before going to bed. There were still many things waiting to be done tomorrow and she couldn't afford to delay.
Silent all night.
The next morning, after breakfast, Zheng Sisi handed a bag of corn seeds, a bag of potatoes and more than twenty sweet potatoes to Uncle Ma, asking him to take people to plant the land in Yao Village as well.
I took a few more people to check on the rice seeds. Today's rice seeds have sprouted, and a small white tip has popped out. I arranged for a few people to soak the rice seeds in cold water.
After finishing the work, Zheng Sisi led a few people to the county town. There were five carriages along the way. Today, except for the coachman, only Qingfeng, Captain Liu, Rose, and Lily were brought with them. Everyone else stayed in the farm.
The group staggered towards the county town, singing digital songs all the way, pulling aside the curtain to look at the scenery outside, and soon arrived at the county town.
There are not many people entering and leaving the county town today. There are soldiers standing guard at the city gate, but no entrance fee is collected. This is very humane. The common people don't make much money to begin with, and they still need to pay an entrance fee to enter the city. This is keeping people out, so how can the economy flow?
Several carriages entered the city together, attracting a lot of attention. Shop owners on the street all looked out, hoping to come in and buy something.
I heard that a large convoy came the day before yesterday, but unfortunately they only stayed at the county government gate for a while and left without buying anything.
Before the horses arrived at the gate of the county government office, the two gatekeepers were still the same ones from yesterday. When they saw that it was the carriage of the Third Prince and the county lady, they left one person to receive them and the other quickly ran into the county government office to report the news.
When County Magistrate Cao and Master He came out with their men, Zheng Sisi and the others had just gotten off the carriage. The County Magistrate and his men were about to salute, but were stopped by the Third Prince.
Magistrate Cao led everyone into the county government office and invited everyone to have tea in the hall.
After the tea was served, Zheng Sisi directly stated her purpose.
"County Magistrate Cao, I sent a group of people to you the day before yesterday. I hope it didn't add to your burden."
County Magistrate Cao chuckled twice and asked, "How is the county lady going to deal with them?"
