Cheng Silang also hurriedly picked up the tea bowl. The two looked at each other and drank each.

"Shiro-kun."

Looking at Cheng Silang who was getting up to leave, Mrs. Zhu called him back.

Cheng Silang turned back somewhat puzzled.

"Silang-kun, do you regret it?" Miss Zhu asked.

Cheng Silang smiled.

"My sister said that there are no ifs in the world. What's been done is done, and you have to look forward." He said, and then he saluted and left.

The door closed and the room became quiet again. Madam Zhu sat on the floor without moving for a long time.

"But, I regret it." She murmured.

When night fell, Saturday Lang walked into Jiao Niang's courtyard and immediately saw the woman leaning on the porch, shrouded by lanterns on both sides, exuding a different look from the day.

She was holding a pendant in her hand and looking at it slowly.

"What is this?" Zhou Lang asked.

"Grasshopper." Cheng Jiaoniang said.

Grasshopper? This is made of thin bamboo skin and is lifelike.

"Where did it come from?" Zhou Lang asked.

"It was a gift." Cheng Jiaoniang replied.

This guy Qin Shisanlang must have given it to him. Zhou Zuorang curled his lips.

I want to say something but I don’t know what to say. This woman never takes the initiative to speak. Even if you ask me, she will only answer questions and answers. She doesn’t know how to be polite or strike up a conversation.

I really don't know what she was thinking in such silence.

After sitting like this for a moment, Zhou Lang simply stood up and walked away. After walking a few steps, he looked back and saw that the woman still raised her head slightly, as if she was looking at the pendant again, but she didn't seem to be looking at it.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Lang couldn't help asking.

"Look at the stars." Cheng Jiaoniang replied without looking away even a little bit.

Stargazing?

Saturday Lang looked up at the sky. The night was getting darker and the stars were getting brighter.

It's pretty cool, but what's the point?

He curled his lips and walked away.

"Madam." Banqin stepped forward and added a cloak to her, and also looked at her, "Do you want to see her very late tonight?"

Cheng Jiaoniang nodded and pointed at the starry sky.

"Look, the star is getting brighter and brighter, but it's not enough," she said.

Which one? Which one?

Banqin looked up, and there was no difference in her eyes at all about the stars in the sky. However, the lady said that if one shines, it must be bright. She nodded seriously.

"Then what is enough?" Banqin asked.

"The time, place and people are favorable." Cheng Jiaoniang said, "Now that the time and place are favorable, the rest depends on the people."

.............................

"Oh my God, my son, you have actually become a matchmaker."

In the palace, the Queen Mother exclaimed, looking at Prince Ping who was kneeling in front of her, dumbfounded.

"Empress, this is not a matchmaker, this is business." Prince Ping said with a straight face.

The Queen Mother looked at the imperial concubine with a smile.

"Look, look, should we, Prince Ping, do some business first?" she said.

The imperial concubine half smiled and half shook her head.

"Fourth brother, don't be ridiculous. This is not something that your child can talk about." She said, "Besides, if you tell Mrs. Cheng to a high-ranking official, wouldn't it be a joke?"

"That's not a joke, that's turning a joke into a good story." Ping Wang Surong said.

Turn a joke into a good story?

The imperial concubine and the queen mother were stunned for a moment.

"Now the Gao family's fight over Mrs. Cheng in Deshenglou has become a joke. If we don't find a way to solve it, the Gao family will remain a joke in the eyes of the world for the rest of our lives. But if this fight turns into a marriage, there will be no fight.

When they got to know each other, the conflict of feelings turned into mutual sympathy, wouldn't that become a good story?" Prince Ping said, "Does the empress really hope that the Gao family will become a joke like this? As long as Mrs. Cheng is around, the Gao family will always be a joke.

"

The queen mother and the noble concubine looked at each other.

Of course they don't want the Gao family to become a joke, as that would do them no good.

"If you put it this way." The imperial concubine spoke first, her eyes sparkling, "This marriage is really good."

The Gao family is no longer a joke. The disgusting and tabooed Mrs. Cheng has become a member of the Gao family. After becoming a member of the Gao family, she is naturally in the hands of the Gao family, and the Gao family is the one they feel most at ease with.

People, this really kills two birds with one stone.

The Queen Mother obviously thought about it and nodded slowly.

"Yes, there should be an explanation for this ridiculous thing." She said, raising her head and looking out the door, "Come here, Mrs. Cheng family is here. The Ai family will be the matchmaker."
