Zheng Zhi hid in Tinglan Courtyard for several days, only taking care of a few pots of hydrangeas in the room. The purple hydrangeas are growing very well and flourishing, and the clusters of flower bulbs make the house look less deserted.

"Xiao Lan, the fire in the stove is not strong enough, you go and add some new charcoal, hydrangeas like heat the most, and it's not good to freeze." Zheng Zhi took small scissors and carefully repaired the branches and leaves of the hydrangea.

Xiao Lan pouted, "Miss, you haven't been so tight on your body, you came back from the study a few days ago and were a little cold, and you haven't been all right yet." If only you could treat your body the same as you do to these hydrangeas. ”

Zheng Zhi looked at Xiao Lan helplessly, "It's just that I'm a little cold, and I don't have anything anymore." This flower is more expensive than human gold, and it can't stand the cold, otherwise it will easily wither. ”

Xiao Lan neatly changed the stove as she said, and the room was as warm as spring. She looked at the young lady who was carefully studying the hydrangeas, and she really felt that people were more delicate than flowers. Xiao Lan unconsciously puffed up her cheeks, Miss is also as delicate as a flower, this hydrangea, someone takes care of it and someone heats it, how can this young lady not compare to this flower.

Yesterday she helped the young lady to get the monthly example, and happened to meet the Yuhuan next to the grandmother, the little girl used to look quite honest, but recently I don't know who gave the guts, and began to ridicule her, saying that she was not favored by the girl, and said that she and the master were dressed so poorly and sour, and would embarrass the wealthy Baifu. What is poor and sour, that is elegant and pure! Xiao Lan wanted to reason with Yuhuan at the moment, but when she thought that Miss usually made her not to be rash, she just put up with it. When she came back, she wanted to sue, but when she saw that Miss was so focused on what was going on outside the window, she hesitated, and in the end she still didn't say, hey, let Miss be clean for a while.

Zheng Zhi has been looking at hydrangeas every day for the past few days, and she can quickly clearly remember how many flowers grow on each flower ball, and how many petals are on each flower. She kept herself from thinking about anything else, she was hiding in her own turtle shell. But every time she looked at the flower in a daze, in a trance, she could clearly see Bai Ziyi's face in her mind. She has no amazing talent, she doesn't have all kinds of charm, she doesn't have all kinds of calculations, she is just an ordinary woman who is not born high and has been living cautiously. She didn't make any impressive decisions for herself, and even if it was this marriage, it was only a condition for her compromise. She has never planned for herself, she only wants a place to accommodate her and her relatives, she has always been passive, she has always felt that the choice is in the hands of others, and she can only hope that others can treat her a little better. She had never been in love with anyone before, and her world was only her and her mother's nurse. Now it's the first time to taste love, but it's heartache unbearable, no one tells her what to do, and she doesn't know what to do.

The warmth in the house was even stronger, and Zheng Zhi only wore a light bean-yellow plain silk dress. Xiao Lan was afraid that Zheng Zhi would catch a cold again, so she took a plain silk cotton vest and draped it on her. At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the door. Before Zheng Zhi could speak, the little clever Xiaolan had already carefully pushed the door out to see what was going on.

After a while, a rush of footsteps came, the door was pushed open, and the red-eyed Bai Zifei stood at the door, with a panicked look on the side.

"Second sister-in-law!" Bai Zifei suddenly pounced in front of Zheng Zhi with an aggrieved face, and Xiao Lan didn't dare to stop her, so she could only silently close the door. Bai Zifei was wrapped in the cold air outside and suddenly broke the originally warm atmosphere in the house, and when she hugged Zheng Zhi, the plain silk cotton vest that Zheng Zhi had just put on also slipped quietly.

"What's the matter, Third Miss?" Zheng Zhi looked down and saw Bai Zifei's trembling head crying, and the pearls on her hair were scattered.

Xiao Lan whispered with an embarrassed expression: "Miss, as soon as I went out, I saw the third miss coming this way, and there were a few mothers-in-law behind me, but when they saw the third miss coming to Tinglan Courtyard, they stopped, but now they are still waiting outside." ”

Zheng Zhi probably guessed what was going on, she was upset and depressed in the past few days, so she didn't ask about things outside the hospital. Come to think of it, Bai Ziyi should have looked for Bai Zifei.

"Third Miss, don't cry and break your body, let's get up and drink a cup of tea to warm up first." Zheng Zhi gently stroked Bai Zifei's back.

Waiting for Xiaolan to serve good tea, Bai Zifei's mood had stabilized a lot, but her eyes were still a little red and swollen, she took a sip of warm tea before she slowly stopped sobbing. "Second sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I didn't have time to let someone inform you, so I ran in by myself. It's just that I didn't expect my eldest brother to ground me and let those hateful mothers-in-law look at me! ”

Let Bai Zifei be grounded? It seems that Bai Ziyi is determined this time. Zheng Zhi pondered and spoke: "Last time I told your eldest brother about you, but your eldest brother was resolute, and he asked me to stop caring about this matter, I ..... failed to help you after all." Zheng Zhi felt uncomfortable, for Bai Zifei and for herself.

"Second sister-in-law, it's not your fault, I know that this thing can't be agreed to so easily, but I just have to try, even if there is a 1 in 10,000 chance. I know my own intentions, I don't want to marry someone I have never met in such a vague way! Now that my lover has appeared, and it is still before I am married, why don't I give it a try, in case I can achieve what I want? ”

Zheng Zhi's heart was shocked, and Bai Zifei's crisp voice was firm and powerful. In Zheng Zhi's impression, Bai Zifei has always been an innocent and lively rich lady, sweet and delicate under the protection of her father and brother. At this time, this rich lady has courage that she does not have.

After a few sips of hot tea, Bai Zifei began to talk about the past few days intermittently. It turned out that Bai Ziyi went to find Bai Zifei on the second day that Zheng Zhi told him. Bai Ziyi didn't go around in circles, but bluntly told Bai Zifei that it was impossible for her and Ling Xiao, even if her marriage changed, no one would be Ling Xiao. At first, Bai Zifei wanted to have a little temper with her eldest brother like she usually did, but this time she didn't know why Bai Ziyi didn't eat this at all, but was unusually serious and serious. Bai Zifei asked why it couldn't be Ling Xiao, Bai Ziyi was just silent for a while, and finally only said that she would know in the future. Of course, Bai Zifei would not give up, she began to try her best to "meet" Ling Xiao. Of course, she was soon discovered by Bai Ziyi, and then she was grounded in the house.

"I finally ran out while the people were not looking, and I didn't know where to go for a while, so I finally came here. I really want to see Ling Ergongzi, he doesn't know my mind yet......" As she spoke, Bai Zifei began to sob again.

Zheng Zhi felt sorry in her heart, and asked what the world was, how could she not understand Bai Zifei's lovesickness.

"Third Miss, please go back first, the people sent by your eldest brother outside are estimated to be reported to him soon, and you may be more strictly guarded at that time, so go back now." As for Ling Xiao...... I will help you convey your affection, I can't help you with anything else, I can only do this. Zheng Zhi said gloomily.

Before leaving, Bai Zifei gave Zheng Zhi her handkerchief, which was woven with fine silk, and the white and smooth surface was embroidered with a little red plum, which was very suitable for the occasion. It's just that there is no signature on the handkerchief, Zheng Zhi is strange at the moment, but Bai Zifei said mischievously that this is good, and she is not afraid that if the eldest brother sees it, she will recognize it.
