Two days later, Zheng Zhi and the others were about to leave for Baifu. The mother and the nurse reluctantly said goodbye to Zheng Zhi. The day before leaving, Zheng Jiangde had said a lot to Zheng Rui in private, and Zheng Rui's eyes were red after going out.

Originally, Zheng Zhi thought that Zheng Jiangde's old fox would also look for her, but in the end she didn't.

After returning to Baifu, Bai Ziyi began to get busy, often running around the business during the day, and checking accounts with the bookkeeper at night. He often can't rest until the third watch, and he was still in Qiutang Courtyard for the first two days after returning home, and then he began to sleep in the study.

After coming back, Zheng Zhi's life was very leisurely. In addition to getting up early to say goodbye, she took care of the hydrangeas sent by Bai Ziyi before. Hydrangeas were placed in the house, a stove was lit, and the whole room was brought to life by the lush pink and purple petals.

And with the help of Bai Ziyi, Master Bai is no longer as busy as before, he often likes to enjoy flowers and birds in the house, and there are two starlings in the yard, he can spend an afternoon teaching them to read poetry. Master Bai heard that Zheng Zhi loves to raise flowers, and he also asked her to exchange experiences together. Mr. Bai is a person with a bold personality, who has been in the mall for so many years, and is very easy-going in dealing with people. Zheng Zhi felt that it was much cuter than Zheng Jiangde.

After the memorial, every time Zheng Zhi went to Qiutang Courtyard, Zheng Rui either painted her eyebrows or applied yellow to the mirror, and her words became less and less when facing her, which made Zheng Zhi very helpless.

Bai Ziyi slept in the study, and was served by the little maid every day to wash and dress. Once Zheng Zhi came to the study early in the morning and just wanted to take the basin towel in the hand of the little servant, but Bai Ziyi only said lightly when he saw it that this was what his subordinates did, and asked Zheng Zhi not to do this in the future.

Zheng Zhi thought that she and Zheng Rui would not fall out of favor like this. The old fox Zheng Jiangde didn't count this point, Zheng Zhi laughed self-deprecatingly in his heart.

On this day, Zheng Zhi took a nap, and when she got up, the spring was still bright. Xiaolan said that it was not good to be bored in the house, so it was better to go out for a walk. Zheng Zhi thought about it and made sense, so she asked Xiaolan to put on a thick jacket for herself, combed her peony head again, simply inserted Zhucui, and pushed the door out.

In February, the air is cold and crisp, the plum blossoms are dotted on the branches, and there is a faint fragrance of plum blossoms in the wind. The winter scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is not covered with snow, except for plum blossoms, only bare branches crisscross the sky and the earth.

The two walked slowly, and before they knew it, they came to the vicinity of Bai Ziyi's study.

"Miss, shall we go in?" Xiao Lan asked softly.

Zheng Zhi thought for a while, "I'll stew the soup and send it back." “

When I turned around and wanted to leave, I noticed a person on the stone path. How can this person look so familiar, it's Ling Xiao! Since the last memorial, Zheng Zhi saw him for the first time. How did he end up here?

The people who came also saw them, and their footsteps stopped.

The Ling Mansion has been very close to the Bai Mansion recently. Ling Xiao even had something to do with Bai Ziyi often, he didn't expect to meet Zheng Zhi here, he wanted to take a detour to avoid it, but he felt that this would seem too deliberate.

Since the last memorial, Ling Xiao was very embarrassed when he thought of helping Zheng Zhi massage, when did he Ling Ershao help a woman massage, not to mention that he was still a friend's concubine, although he still did it at that time.

Ling Xiao looked at Zheng Zhi not far away, since he must have met him, he must not be the only one who is embarrassed, what is he afraid of as a man.

Ling Xiao walked slowly in front of Zheng Zhi and them, watching Zheng Zhi salute him, a set of actions flowing smoothly, naturally generous. The expression on her fair and delicate face was calm and indifferent, and her crystal apricot eyes were so soft that there were no waves.

Ling Xiao didn't know why, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable, this woman usually looked very polite, but her skin was thicker than he thought, and she didn't even feel a little embarrassed about her daughter's family when she saw him.

Ling Xiao deliberately cleared his throat and asked as if he was concerned, "Is Mrs. Sister-in-law here to see Brother Bai?" ”

Zheng Zhi lowered her eyebrows and bowed: "Passing by here, I wanted to come and see Xianggong, I was afraid that he would be too tired."

Ling Xiao nodded when he heard this, and said softly: "Brother Bai has been in the study for the past few days, should he be more concerned, how can there be a newlywed who has been staying alone in the study for a long time......" After speaking, Ling Xiao saw Zheng Zhi's gradually stiffened expression with satisfaction, and added: "Speaking of which, this is Brother Bai's family matter, I shouldn't have talked too much, but I think he is too cold, tsk." After saying that, he didn't forget to shake his head.

When Ling Xiao raised his steps and was about to go to Bai Ziyi's study as satisfied as he had succeeded in his prank, Zheng Zhi stopped him. As the sun sets, the golden glow of the setting sun shines on everything in the world. Ling Xiao turned around and saw Zheng Zhi with a golden soft glow on her hair and face, she raised her eyes and said sincerely: "On the day of the memorial, thank you Ling Er Gongzi for your help." After speaking, Zheng Zhi took Xiaolan and left, leaving Ling Xiao alone in place.

Zheng Zhi walked more and more urgently on the way back, and Xiao Lan, who was following behind, gasped: "Miss, you wait for me, no one is chasing us behind, why do you want to go so fast?"

Zheng Zhi suddenly stopped, and Xiao Lan almost fell on her back.

"Miss......" Xiaolan was aggrieved.

Zheng Zhi glanced back, and could no longer see Bai Ziyi's study. They were now at a small bridge in the garden, and across the bridge, it was the cosmos that had once bloomed. Now the cosmos have withered, and from a distance, I can only see a patch of withered yellow grass.

Fang Cai's words pierced Zheng Zhi's heart, making all her thoughts about Bai Ziyi surging all at once, making her whole person no longer calm and self-controlled. The acacia that has been locked in the door of the heart floods like a tide and bursts the embankment and pours out.

Xiao Lan looked at the usually gentle and calm young lady's face suddenly became full of expression, from struggling and flustered, to gradually calming down and firm, as if she had made up her mind.
