"Fifth sister, I bought you your favorite rose cake. How about it, the fourth sister is punctual, I didn't trouble you. A hearty laugh came, and then, Murong Qingluan, who was dressed as a small maid and was short, sneaked into Murong Qingran's house, wearing a subordinate hat on her head, covering half of her face, carrying a bag of pastries in her hand, and shaking it triumphantly in front of Murong Qingran, and said, "I bought this after waiting in line for a long time, you can taste it." ”

Murong Qingran bowed slightly, opened the wrapped pastry, picked up a piece and took a small bite, yes, it is indeed a pastry made of roses on Cuiping Mountain, and it is the only one in Qizhou City.

In the past five years, the business of the Wang family has become bigger and bigger, and Wang Hong's talent in business even Murong He has to be impressed by him, from Qizhou to Lin'an, Jiangnan, there are branches of the Wang family's shops everywhere, but at the same time, when the Wang family's business was in full swing, the neighboring county Pingyin Shen family also suddenly rose. The Shen family has a mountain villa, the villa is located on Cuiping Mountain, the mountain is full of roses, I heard that they are all planted by Shen Yunqing's son, because the roses planted by Shen Gongzi are fragrant and sweet and the yield is limited, so the rose cake sold by the Shen family shop was snatched up as soon as it came out.

In fact, Murong Qingran is not a greedy person, and what kind of delicacies from the mountains and seas are the same for her. But for some reason, she had an indescribable feeling for this rose cake, and every time she ate it, the feeling became even stronger, déjà vu, and made her cry for no reason.

"Fourth Miss, let's go back quickly. If it's late, the slave maid and Sister Qiulan will be miserable. "Behind Murong Qingran are Lian'er and Qiulan, five years ago, Hui Niang exchanged her life for her daughter Lian'er's life, and the Wang family remembered that Hui Niang had been loyal to her, so they left Lian'er behind. Hui Niang went peacefully, but after she died, she was hastily buried, and even her daughter Lian'er didn't feel that her mother had died strangely.

Lian'er is two years younger than Murong Qingluan, and it is also a fun age, as soon as Murong Qingluan said that she wanted to sneak out to play, she not only did not dissuade her, but also instigated Murong Qingluan to take her out with her, but Qiulan, the big girl next to Murong Qingluan, panicked, and Madame would definitely not agree to Miss Fourth being so nonsense, once or twice making excuses that she could hide it from Miss Five, but there were too many times, Madame became suspicious, and it was not the two of them who suffered.

"You also know that Madame will punish us heavily, and the fourth young lady was about to go out just now, but I didn't see you stop me." Qiulan said angrily.

Lian'er stuck out her tongue and stopped squeaking.

Murong Qingluan said, "What are you afraid of, I'll chat with the fifth sister and talk about the love of sisters, even if my mother knows, she has nothing to say." ”

After speaking, she said to Murong Qingran as if flattering, "Fifth sister, you don't have to say anything, continue to be dumb, anyway, my mother will never force you to speak." ”

Murong Qingran's dumb illness is good and bad, everyone in the Hou Mansion knows it, of course, even if it feels incredible, but Murong Qingran doesn't speak, no one can help her.

"Gone, the fifth sister." Murong Qingluan changed his clothes here and left with a smile.

As long as Murong Qingluan is in the Hou Mansion, the Wang family will naturally not come to the door, Murong Qingran is helpless, so this willful fourth sister lies in front of the Wang family every day under her name, the Wang family never comes in person, every time she sends someone to find her, she will let Zhou Nanniang deal with those people, and when it is almost an hour, the fourth sister will return to the house.

"Miss Five, are you going out?" Seeing Murong Qingran going out, Granny Zhou hurriedly took a plain gown and draped it on Murong Qingran's body, tied the belt for her, and muttered, "You are really, every time you choose to go out on a cloudy day." It's so cold outside. ”

"Nurse, you are wrong, every time Miss Ben wants to go out, the sky becomes cloudy." It's not that she chooses a cloudy day, it's that God doesn't give her a chance to choose at all.

"......" Granny Zhou was speechless.

Out of the courtyard, there is a small garden not far away.

Murong Qingran will not go far, let alone see the people who come and go in the Hou Mansion, in the past five years, the scope of her movement has been limited here, the front yard is lively, there are people who come to visit Murong He every day, and some people come to visit the Wang family, compared to ten years ago, the current Jiyang Hou Mansion is noisy in front of the car, and the door is like a city.

Most of the rich and noble families and princely mansions should be like this.

She lived quietly in the Hou Mansion for five years, and now, Murong He has less surveillance on her, and she may know that she is a useless wreck in her life, greedy for life and afraid of death, mediocre and incompetent.

The white silk shoes slowed down, and Murong Qingran stopped and coughed lightly.

"Five...... Miss Five. Aunt Wei, who was feeding the fish in the small lotus pond, was very frightened by her.

"Aunt Wei hasn't been here for a long time, and Miss Ben thinks you have forgotten the fish in this lotus pond." Murong Qingran took the fish food from her hand and said coldly, "Food and clothing are enough, if they are fed, they will only die faster." ”

The most ordinary words, but to Aunt Wei's ears, they shuddered.

Others don't know Miss Five's ability, but she knows very well that five years ago, it was this five-year-old Miss Five who cured her face. She Wei Yan'er, not the wife of the Hou Mansion, and has no heirs under her knees, the only thing that can gain a foothold in this Hou Mansion is her beauty and youth, but that year, for some reason, one day she woke up, her face was red and swollen, and it was itchy, and her whole body was pus. At that time, the ladies and the others began to prepare for her funeral, and as soon as she died, they would have the opportunity to regain the favor of the Hou Ye, so those people wished that she would die early.

Fortunately, Hou Ye was not in the mansion during that time, and he couldn't see her ugly face, and fortunately, in the end, the fifth lady saved her.

To this day, she doesn't know how Miss Five found the home remedies to save her, but in the past five years of contact with Miss Five, she has become more and more shocked, Miss Five seems to have begun to lay out at a young age, a Zhou Niang, and a guard called Xiong Da, what is more mysterious, that is, Miss Five has to go out of the house every other day, but she never knows what she is going to do.

"From today on, your life is Miss Ben's, Miss Ben can give you monstrous wealth, maybe one day in the future, you may still be Mrs. Hou, but if you betray Miss Ben, Miss Ben will let you die!"

No one would believe that a ten-year-old could say such a vicious thing, not even herself.

Thinking of this, Aunt Wei became more and more respectful to Murong Qingran, "The concubine and the fifth miss are of the same mind, and they are ready to be sent by the fifth miss at any time." "The identity of Mrs. Houfu, how could she not be tempted, why could the daughter of a lowly businessman of the Wang family be the wife, she can't. Although she didn't find out who wanted to disfigure her back then, she was sure that the Wang family and the others would definitely not be able to get out of it.
