Changfudo.

A touch of sky blue figure hidden in the two-color mandarin duck canna bush is skillfully twisting the strings, with slender hands, ten fingers, and the sound of the piano is sometimes crisp like a pearl falling on a jade plate, and sometimes it is low back like a whisper, like a heavenly sound.

"I can't imagine that Miss Five's piano skills are so good, it's really breathtaking!" Meng Bagongzi walked forward, clapped his hands and praised, "This song should only be in the sky, how many times can I hear it in the world." ”

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly.

"Sir!" Mu Shuang looked up and saw that it was Meng Bagongzi, her pretty face turned red, and she hurriedly stepped forward to curtsied, the morning breeze swept by, and the girl's light dress fluttered in the wind, beautiful.

"Fifth Miss doesn't have to be polite." Meng Bagongzi smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to pick her up, and said gently, "Fifth Miss is talented and intelligent, no matter what she learns, she can understand everything, and she doesn't need to get up early and work hard." ”

The girl has a white jade hosta pinned alone between her temples, and there are no other accessories, which makes her more beautiful and refined, but the texture of the dress on her body is average, which is very incompatible with the identity of the fifth lady of the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

Meng Bagongzi has been in the mansion for several months, and even if he doesn't pay attention anymore, he can feel that the fifth miss of Mufu is being snubbed in the mansion, and there is a difference between him and the fourth lady who is flamboyant.

"Sir praises falsely, the little girl is stupid, she should get up early and practice diligently." Mu Shuang lowered her eyebrows and replied obediently, how do others know that in addition to her diligent practice of painting and piano skills, most of them are just to relieve loneliness in the boudoir.

My mother hates her, and my father probably can't see her, so my sister is not embarrassed to take care of her, the only grandmother who protects her. Recently, I have added my great-grandson Hao'er, and I can't take care of her anymore.

"Listening to the sound of the young lady's piano, it seems that I am missing some relatives, could it be that there are people close to the young lady in the house who have not returned home for a long time?" Although Meng Bagongzi was not proficient in musical instruments, he still realized that there was a faint sadness flowing in the sound of the piano, and then his eyes fell on the crescent-shaped emerald jade pendant hanging around her neck, which was quite surprised, it was a unique ornament in the Western Regions, and the women on the side of the beam rarely wore it.

Mu Qing always mentioned Mu Shuang's life experience in front of him intentionally or unintentionally, so he knew that the fifth lady of Mu Fu was the daughter of the second master Mu Chang who was raised in the outer room outside. And just born. The outer chamber was sent away, and he didn't care about the rest.

"Where can I have anything on my mind, but to see that the midsummer is dying. Autumn is coming soon. I just felt it. Mu Shuang said vaguely. Of course, she won't say that today is her birthday and she misses her biological mother. I wanted to soothe the pain of longing, but I didn't expect that all my thoughts were unconsciously soaked into the sound of the piano.

I guessed it right by the gentleman.

"Yes! Once summer passes, many flowers will wither, which makes people inevitably sad. Meng Bagongzi echoed accordingly, and then his gaze fell on her crescent-shaped jade pendant, and he couldn't help but ask, "Does Miss have any relatives in the Western Regions?" I think Miss's jade pendant is very familiar. ”

"Don't hide it, sir, my mother is from the Western Regions." Mu Shuang couldn't lie by nature, so she had to tell the truth, "This is what my mother left me before leaving, but I don't know what Mr. said familiarity, what does it mean?" ”

She has been wearing this jade pendant since she had a memory, when she was in Muyingtang before, the Huangfu clan never mentioned her life experience and the jade pendant around her neck to her, until she was ten years old, when she moved out of Muyingtang, she learned from the cynicism of Liu and Mu Qing about her very disgraceful background and the origin of this jade pendant.

That was the thought her mother had left for her when she was leaving.

It's just that every time Liu saw this jade pendant, she was very angry, and privately threatened her that she would throw away or smash this jade pendant, so scared that she didn't dare to wear it again, until today, she quietly put it on, which was a little comfort for her birthday.

"Your jade pendant, produced in the Saihan tribe of the Western Regions, called cat's eye green, this cat's eye emerald is scarce in number, precious, in addition to paying tribute to the palace, most of them are made into jade pendants by their own tribe and worn on their bodies, and over time, it has become a unique symbol of the Saihan tribe." Meng Bagongzi glanced at her thoughtfully and said with a smile, "So I guess Ling Ci must be a woman from the Saihan tribe in the Western Regions, but why haven't I seen you wear this jade pendant before?" Is there anything special about today? ”

"Today, today...... Mu Shuang hesitated for a moment, and didn't know where the courage came from, so she blurted out: "Today is my birthday." ”

"I see, then I wish the fifth lady a bright flower and a golden spring, and her fragrance will last forever." Meng Bagongzi hugged his fists at her and asked with a smile, "Isn't there a family banquet in the mansion today?" ”

"No, at my age, it's not a birthday." Mu Shuang lowered her eyes, her wing-like eyelashes blinked, and asked, "Dare to ask Mr., is Saihan far away from the capital?" ”

It doesn't matter if you don't have a birthday.

It was important that she wanted to know her mother's whereabouts.

She was taken back to the Yongding Marquis Mansion by the Huangfu clan as soon as she was born, and naturally she didn't remember her mother's appearance, but she still heard Mama Chu secretly tell her that her mother was white and beautiful, and she was a complete beauty embryo.

She also said that she looked very much like her mother.

She often wondered, where was the woman who looked so much like herself?

Why haven't I come back to see her for so many years?

"The Saihan tribe is next to Daliang, and it is over the border of Bingzhou." Meng Bagongzi smiled slightly, seeing her cautious appearance, he deliberately teased her, "Do you want to go to Saihan to find your mother?" If you want to go, I will go back to Bingzhou in the future, and I can take you there to have a look. ”

Meng Bagongzi claimed to be his ancestral home and was a native of Bingzhou in the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

In fact, his mother is an authentic nobleman of the state family, when he was a teenager, he went to the Western Regions because of the fall of the family, and because of a chance encounter with the Great Khan of the Spur, he became the princess of the Spur, but unfortunately he was jealous and red-faced, and died when Meng Bagongzi was ten years old, which made the young Meng Ba very sad.

"Thank you, sir." Mu Shuang curtsied again, and said shyly, "It's a pity that I won't be able to go to the Saihan tribe in the Western Regions in this life, and my grandmother and father won't agree." ”

She grew so big that she hadn't even been to the edge of the capital.

Not to mention going to the Western Regions.

"Miss Five don't need to be discouraged. Anything is possible. Meng Bagongzi had never seen a woman who blushed so easily, and said with a smile, "As long as you want to go, you will definitely be able to go, if the fifth lady doesn't mind, I will tell Mrs. Tai in person." ”

He was amazed that he had been talking to a little girl for so long, and he had disdained to talk to the so-called aristocratic daughters, who were not only proud and pretentious, but also stupid and arrogant.

But the timid little girl in front of him made him refreshed, she was like an uncarved piece of jade. A lotus that emerges from the mud and is not stained. Quietly stop in this noisy earthly world.

"Sir, never." Mu Shuang hurriedly stopped, "I have no intention of going to Saihan, I just ask casually." ”

"Fifth Miss don't panic, I don't open my mouth." Meng Bagongzi sighed lightly in his heart. Look at her with pity. What the hell has happened to this woman? Let her be so casual, especially easy to be nervous and afraid.

There was a sound of footsteps.

Mu Qing walked in with two maids with their heads held high, and saw Mu Shuang and Meng Bagongzi standing there far away talking. Meng Bagongzi was quite calm, but Mu Shuang looked pitiful, a wave of anger couldn't help but rush to his heart, walked straight to the two of them, and bowed respectfully to Meng Bagongzi, and then turned his head and said to Mu Shuang expressionlessly: "Fifth sister, let's take a step to speak." ”

As he spoke, Tengdi turned around and walked towards the water pavilion.

Mu Shuang followed silently, and just stood still, Mu Qing threw a slap in the face, and said hatefully: "What did you just say to Mr.?" Are you saying something bad about me and my mother? ”

Obviously, she is a veritable concubine in the second room, her father loves her mother, and her two brothers also spoil her, but since she has Mu Shuang, everything has changed, this little slut looks better than her, not to mention, female red skills or something, everything is better than her, even her brothers often ridicule her in front of her, saying that she is not as good as Mu Shuang.

Now in the school, this little slut has once again stolen her limelight, Mr. has never liked to talk in the school, but now he has been chatting with her for so long, and he is putting on a pitiful look, obviously saying bad things about her and her mother!

"Fourth sister, you misunderstood me." Mu Shuang was blinded by the sudden slap, hurriedly covered her hot face, and said aggrievedly, "I didn't say bad things about you and my mother to my husband, I just said a few words casually to my husband." ”

"A few casual words? What do you mean? You say! Mu Qing pinched her waist and sneered, "Tell me what you are talking about, and if it makes sense, I will let you go." ”

"First, I talked a few words about piano skills, and later, and then I talked about this jade pendant." Mu Shuang said timidly, "Nothing else?" ”

"Jade pendant?" Mu Qing glanced at the jade pendant hanging on her chest, the imperial emerald shimmered in the sun, and sneered, "You are really as cheap as your mother, you are born to seduce and lure men, and you don't listen to your mother's warnings, and dare to wear this jade pendant to show it around, it's really hateful." ”

As he spoke, he said coldly to the two little girls beside him, "Go, bring me her jade pendant." ”

The two little girls stepped forward in response and went to pull her jade pendant.

Mu Shuang naturally refused, and begged while retreating: "I beg you, Fourth Sister, don't take away my jade pendant, in the future, I will never dare to wear it again." ”

The two little girls hesitated for a moment, and when they saw that Mu Qing was unmoved, they rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to snatch the jade pendant hanging around her neck. ”

Mu Shuang was pushed by her coldly, did not stand firmly, and fell into the lotus pond, and disappeared in a blink of an eye, Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in fright: "Help, help, the fifth sister fell into the water." ”

She hasn't left the cabinet yet, but she doesn't want to bear the reputation of bullying the weak and forcing her sister to death.

The two little girls also panicked, and shouted as they ran out, "Come on!" Miss Five fell overboard. ”

In an instant, a figure plopped, jumped into the pool, and swam towards the place where Mushuang fell into the water.

"Mr. Meng!" Mu Qing saw that it was Meng Ba who jumped down, and said loudly, "Sir, the fifth sister is here." ”

Not far away, there is a family who knows how to run like this.

Immediately afterwards, two black figures appeared out of nowhere and jumped into the pool, one protected Meng Ba, the other had already found Mu Shuang, and the group went up to the lotus pond soaking wet.

Fortunately, Mu Shuang fell into the water for a relatively short time, choked a few mouthfuls of water, and after going ashore, Meng Bagongzi helped her spit out a few mouthfuls of water, and it was no big deal, and when she came back to her senses, there were tears in her eyes, and she glared at Mu Qing angrily: "Return my jade pendant." ”

Mu Qing knew that she was at a loss, but she was unwilling to be unable to get down the steps on the spot, and said coldly: "When I give my mother, the jade pendant will naturally return you." ”

"Give it back to her." Meng Bagongzi, who was drenched all over, glanced at her coldly and said, "What qualifications do you have to snatch her pendant." ”

"This is our Mufu business, don't meddle in it, sir!" Mu Qing said incredulously, this gentleman is too lenient, right?

"I'll say it again, give it back to her!" Meng Bagongzi wiped a handful of water from his face, and looked at her fiercely, as if he was going to break her into pieces.

Mu Qing had never seen Meng Bagongzi so angry, and hurriedly threw the jade pendant in his hand at Mu Shuang's feet: "Give it back to you." As he spoke, he stomped his foot and left indignantly.

Mu Shuang hurriedly bent down to pick up the jade pendant, wiped it vigorously, held it tightly in his hand, and ran out with his head down.

Shen Qingli was walking around the garden with Brother Hao in his arms, and when he looked up, he saw Mu Qing running out of Changfeng Hall in a hurry, and was wondering, for a moment, he saw Mu Shuang walking out in a hurry, and the clothes on his body were already soaked and tightly attached to his body, and the girl's graceful body stood out, and she looked very embarrassed, so she ordered to follow the peach branch behind her: "Taozhi, you go and take Miss Fifth over, wait for her to wash up, and then find the clothes I didn't wear for her to change." ”

Taozhi answered, trotted after him, and called out to Mu Shuang: "Fifth Miss, the second young lady asked you to go to Qingxin Garden to wash and change clothes." ”

Mu Shuang heard that it was Shen Qingli's meaning, so she obediently followed her back to Qingxin Garden, which was far away from her Agarwood Pavilion, and her appearance was indeed not good-looking.

After Shen Qingli asked the reason, he learned that Meng Bagongzi also fell into the water in order to save Mu Shuang, so he hurriedly asked Cuizhi to boil ginger soup and send it to Meng Bagongzi.

After Cuizhi came back, he said to Shen Qingli mysteriously: "Young lady, when I went to deliver ginger soup, I accidentally heard Qingsheng and Tao Weng beside Meng Bagongzi say that something happened in Youzhou, and it was the emperor who took people away, and if it is investigated, the prince is afraid that he will be implicated." ”

Shen Qingli's heart couldn't help but sink.

Could it be that something happened to Shen Ke? (To be continued......)
