In the garden, Nangong Cheng was sitting quietly by the pool alone, absent-mindedly throwing bait into the water.

Both Shuxiang and Moxiang were dismissed by her, although the two maids could see her girl's depression these days, especially Shuxiang, she knew in her heart that she must have visited the master with His Highness Prince Cheng that day, but since then There is no news about it, but apart from empty words of comfort, she has nothing to do for the girl.Thinking that this is the mansion after all, nothing will happen, so Shuxiang pulled Mo Xiang back.

Because of the smell of bait, the koi in the pond gathered together by playing their tails and scrambling for food.

Nangong Cheng looked melancholy at the carp in the pond, and sighed faintly. This pond is like Nangong Mansion, and she is just a carp that cannot be separated from the water.

"Cousin Cheng!" A familiar shout suddenly came from the front.

Nangong Cheng raised his eyes and saw that Bai Muxiao, who was dressed in a plain dress, was walking towards her gracefully. Her fair and pretty face was bare of makeup, and she only wore a pair of pearl flowers on her hair, which looked plain and beautiful.

"Cousin Xiao."

Nangong Cheng hurriedly got up to greet her, and Bai Muxiao affectionately pulled Nangong Cheng to sit down on the carp-shaped stone bench by the pool together, and asked with concern: "Cousin Cheng, don't blame Xiao'er for being troublesome. Xiao'er just saw you She's frowning, but what's on her mind?" Although Bai Muxiao asked like this, seeing Nangong Cheng's gloomy yet cheerful expression, he had guessed in his heart that the other party was trapped by love.

Nangong Cheng forced a smile, "Cousin Xiao, what else can I worry about?"

Bai Muxiao's eyes flashed, and she simply asked straightforwardly: "Cousin Cheng, do you have a sweetheart?"

Nangong Cheng's face froze immediately, and he looked at Bai Muxiao with a slightly vacillating gaze, and said in an emphatic tone: "Cousin Xiao, please be careful with your words." If even Bai Muxiao could see it, wouldn't the others...

Bai Muxiao wasn't annoyed either, she didn't expect Nangong Cheng to be able to take care of her all at once, so she would have doubted whether Nangong Cheng had any brains.She smiled silently, looked towards the pool, and asked faintly: "Cousin Cheng, will you look down on me?"

Nangong Cheng was startled, and hurriedly said: "Cousin Xiao, how could it be? Why do you think so?"

Bai Muxiao gave a wry smile, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and she lowered her head and said, "When my father was alive, there were a lot of wives and concubines, and there were a lot of houses in the house. The news of death is just to discredit my mother...Even in the White Mansion, my cousins ​​are secretly laughing at me and my mother. Grandparents are unkind, so that I, a dignified daughter of the White Mansion, can only To be able to return to Nangong Mansion with my mother..."

"Cousin Xiao!" Nangong Cheng quickly grabbed Bai Muxiao's hand, trying to comfort her, "You can stay at Nangong Mansion in the future, and Nangong Mansion will always be your and aunt's home."

"Cousin Cheng..." With tears in Bai Muxiao's eyes, she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and then said, "It's fine if you want to treat me as one of my family members. I also knew it was rash to ask you that question just now." , but I also care about you, Cousin Cheng, so I take the liberty of talking too much."

Nangong Cheng lowered her head and did not speak, but her earlobes were already flushed.

"Cousin Cheng." Bai Muxiao said with clear eyes, "my mother was married into the Bai family by the order of her parents and the words of a matchmaker, but what kind of life did she live? If my mother had been brave If you make your own choice, you will definitely be much happier than now... And Cousin Yue, everyone saw that she was given a marriage by the emperor to Prince Zhennan. People don't know? Is this marriage really good?"
