The Cheng family has been the richest man in the Kangxuan Dynasty for a hundred years, mastering the water and land economic gateways of major cities, and paying hundreds of thousands of taxes every year, which even the current emperor has to value.

The rumored old lady of the Cheng family is a legendary figure, it is said that when the emperor was still the prince, he fell in love with his sister, and the old lady Cheng, who was only fourteen years old, personally met the emperor, saying that the Cheng family did not dare to climb high in business, and the Cheng family was dedicated to business, and did not want to have descendants in the future to use the financial resources of the Cheng family to interfere in politics and corrupt the foundation of the Cheng family, so the children of the Cheng family will never join in politics together.

The emperor listened to the dragon's heart, and not only canceled the marriage, but also vigorously promoted the Cheng family, creating a grand occasion that the Cheng family had never had.

Now that the old lady Cheng has passed away for many years, although the Cheng family is no longer the dragon pet of the year, it has always mastered the economic veins of the Kangxuan Dynasty and has been firmly in the position of the richest man until today.

Mrs. Cheng once accompanied Mrs. Cheng to fight the country, and the experience of meeting the first emperor and the current emperor many times is already the envy of everyone among women, and because of Mrs. Cheng's sole favor, the Cheng family has only one lady in her generation from beginning to end, and this matter is also legendary.

Therefore, Mrs. Cheng's 70th birthday, almost all the powerful people in the capital came to celebrate, and she was in the limelight for a while.

When Bai Shuangshuang followed the ladies to the Shi'an Pavilion where the old lady lived in the middle of the backyard, she couldn't stop her heart beating faster on the way.

She didn't know how many times she had walked this road in her previous life, and most of them cried all the way. Yes, at that time, she always came to complain to Mrs. Cheng, because of Cheng Ruohan's neglect, because of Bai Mingzhu's aggressiveness, and because of her status as Cheng Ershao's grandmother, who had long existed in name only.

Now that I think about it, Mrs. Cheng has always protected her within the scope of her ability, but because what happened to her was Cheng Ruohan's secret in the room, Mrs. Cheng could only accompany her most of the time and listen to her cry.

"Old lady! I wish you happiness such as the East China Sea, longevity than Nanshan! ”

When Bai Shuangshuang was distracted, Zheng had already led Bai Mingzhu forward to congratulate him.

After Bai Mingzhu finished saying the congratulatory message, he walked directly to Mrs. Cheng's couch in front of everyone, knelt on Mrs. Cheng's lap affectionately, and naturally beat her legs and feet for Mrs. Cheng.

"Old lady, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I miss the pearl~"

Mrs. Cheng laughed when she heard this, touched the top of Bai Mingzhu's hair and teased: "Look at this girl, her little mouth is sweet." ”

All the female dependents also laughed aloud, praising Bai Mingzhu for being sensible and lovely.

Bai Mingzhu's closeness to Mrs. Cheng is not strange in the eyes of these people, everyone knows that Bai Mingzhu has a very good relationship with Mrs. Cheng, and there are also discussions in private that Bai Mingzhu's position as the second young grandmother of Cheng is settled.

After the old lady laughed for a while, she looked up behind Zheng: "What about Frost?" ”

Bai Shuangshuang kept standing behind Zheng with her head down, and when she heard the old lady's familiar call, she was so sad that she almost wanted to cry, and she took several deep breaths before holding back her tears.

The smiles on the faces of Zheng and Bai Mingzhu froze for a moment, but it was not easy to show it, Bai Mingzhu showed an expression of pretending to be angry, and pouted: "The old lady is eccentric, and my sister forgot about Mingzhu as soon as she came." ”

"Oh, hey, I'm still jealous. Come on, come on, take the red envelope quickly, don't be upset! Although Mrs. Cheng was joking with Bai Mingzhu, her eyes kept looking behind Zheng.

Seeing this, Zheng couldn't drag it out any longer, and reluctantly called Baishuangshuang to step forward: "Don't hurry up to congratulate the old lady on her birthday." ”

“……”

Bai Shuangshuang only felt that her steps were like being filled with lead, but she was in a little expectant, she tried her best to keep her composure and walked slowly, and walked to the futon in front of Mrs. Cheng without raising her head, and knelt down and kowtowed.

"Frost congratulates the old lady on her birthday, I wish the old lady good health and ......"

“……”

…………

Everyone and Mrs. Cheng were generally a little stunned, and they didn't know what this Miss Bai was doing.

Only then did Bai Shuangshuang react, with her current identity, she didn't have to kowtow to celebrate her birthday...... It's just that she was distracted for a moment just now, and subconsciously used the etiquette of seeing Mrs. Cheng in her previous life.

Because Mrs. Cheng hadn't come back to her senses yet, she forgot to call the white frost for a while, and the white frost could only kneel on the futon and didn't know what to do.

"Grandma, Miss Bai has given such a big gift, I'm afraid that the red envelopes you prepared are a little insufficient."

A warm male voice suddenly sounded in the warm pavilion, and Bai Shuangshuang couldn't help but raise his eyes to look for the sound, but saw a man who looked six points similar to Cheng Ruohan was sitting on the side seat, the man was wearing a dark blue robe, his face was slightly pale, but he couldn't stop the warm temperament emanating from his body, his two thick eyebrows were bent, and his deep eyes were looking at her with a gentle expression.

Is it Cheng Ruoyun?!

Yes, the white frost in the previous life did not come to the birthday banquet, but I also heard that it was Cheng Ruoyun's words during the birthday banquet that made the Zheng family want to let Bai Mingzhu replace the white frost. The white frost in the previous life is very grateful to this big brother.

Suddenly seeing Cheng Ruoyun, the eldest young master of the Cheng family, made Bai Shuangshuang a little surprised, and what caught her a little off guard was that Cheng Ruoyun showed a little curiosity on her face after seeing the tears in Bai Shuangshuang's eyes that had not yet disappeared.

But fortunately, with Cheng Ruoyun's interruption, not only did the mood of the white frost and frost improve a lot, but the strange atmosphere in the warm pavilion just now also dissipated a lot.

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly followed Cheng Ruoyun's words and said: "Yes, yes, hurry, Frost Frost come, let grandma take a look, look good, I will give you two red envelopes." ”

The ladies laughed again when they heard this joke.

Bai Shuangshuang stood up and walked over, and Mrs. Cheng directly took Bai Shuangshuang's hand, rubbed it carefully, and looked at her lovingly: "Shuangshuang has grown up and lost weight." Then he complained to the others, "You don't know, this girl used to be chubby and round, and she crawled on me when she saw me." ”

A lady next to her covered her mouth and smiled: "Old lady, you want to, but Miss Bai is such a big person, you can't stand it when you climb up." ”

It was so funny that everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud.

smiled casually, but some people could see that Mrs. Cheng was obviously more intimate with this Miss Bai who had not appeared in front of anyone for I don't know how many years, this kind of intimacy was different from the passivity of Bai Mingzhu, and it was more of an active concern.

And Bai Mingzhu, who was still sitting on Mrs. Cheng's lap now, was a little uncomfortable, she stood up a little stupidly, spread her hands to everyone and smiled: "What should I say?" The old lady just forgot about the pearl. ”

The original embarrassment was resolved by Bai Mingzhu's words, and everyone became familiar again.

There were probably too many people present, and the old lady had a lot to say, but she was reluctant to hold the white frost, so she kept holding the hand of the white frost and laughing with everyone.

"Ruoyun is a little lazy today, and he doesn't want to socialize outside, so he throws it all to Ruohan, and runs to my warm pavilion to hide, you say, do you want to beat him out?"

"Ancestor, this is not to be said. This Cheng family's family business will be inherited by Ruohan sooner or later, isn't it a good thing to exercise earlier? Cheng Ruoyun smiled slightly and said gently.

Mrs. Cheng looked at Cheng Ruoyun, the distress and regret in her eyes flashed, and she said, "Look, this kid, just won't let me speak." ”

Zheng's eyes also flashed with a fine light, and said: "Ouch, old ancestor, what are you talking about, if Ruohan exercises to become a talent earlier, won't he be able to help Ruoyun?" ”

"That's what you said, and that's right."

The lady next to her should also be in harmony, and she also changed the topic with Mrs. Cheng. On the other hand, the white frost on the side secretly glanced in the direction of Cheng Ruoyun. Cheng Ruoyun was still smiling slightly, still smiling gently, and in the smile like a spring breeze, the white frost seemed to have found that the loneliness and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

Bai Shuangshuang seemed to empathize, and her eyes dimmed for a moment, for Cheng Ruoyun, she couldn't help thinking of Cheng Ruoyun in the previous life, if he knew that in the previous life, he died in the hands of this very loving brother, what would he do? Thinking of this, White Frost couldn't help but feel more sympathetic, pity and sadness.

When Bai Shuangshuang raised her eyes again, she actually met Cheng Ruoyun's gaze. So that the white frost had to quickly skim his head, and his heart jumped suddenly.

At that glance, Cheng Ruoyun clearly saw that there was sympathy and sadness in the eyes of the Bai family's sister who had met a few times when she was a child?

Why do you have such an expression, is it because of her, or because of yourself?!
