Chapter 26 Cousin Qingyun (1)
Lifting his steps, Baili Changge was about to go in and take a look.

The muttering that I heard just now gradually became clearer.

"Hey, isn't this Young Master Fu? Why did you come to Fufeng Pavilion to work as a servant?" The voice of an old lady was full of sarcasm.

"Aunt Wu, you don't come to this backyard very often, maybe you don't know, but Young Master Fu has to go into this Fufeng Pavilion every day to clean it!" Another slightly younger maid explained patiently, but her tone was full of disdain .

"Tsk tsk..." The middle-aged woman known as "Aunt Wu" crossed her hands, and her eyes added a bit of arrogance, "I don't know what the idea is, you must know that even if the eldest lady is not favored, it is still the emperor." How can you, a powerless person like you, be able to think about the emperor's grandson concubine who has clearly declared the decree to the world?"

Listening to the conversation between the two, Baili Changge understood in an instant. She walked lightly, tiptoed into the yard quietly and dodged behind an old locust tree.

The sky was dark, only a lantern was lit in front of the main room in Fufeng Pavilion, and the man who was crouching and tending the flowers and plants could be vaguely seen.

The man was dressed in cloth clothes that were washed white with starch, and he could barely see the original blue under the light. His face was delicate and clean, and his soft eyes were fixed on the flower pot in front of him. He held a shovel in his hand and lightly soiled , as if he didn't hear the conversation between the two women next to him.

The coldness of spring penetrated into the bone marrow, and Baili Changge's clothes were a little thin, and he couldn't help shivering. When he looked at the man again, he found that he was also wearing very little clothes like himself.But still just carefully loosen the soil for the flowerpot, as if he didn't notice the coldness.

Due to the distance, Baili Changge couldn't see what was planted in the pot, but a conversation from ten years ago suddenly jumped into his mind.

"Brother Qingyun, can't Tianxiang peonies bloom if they are planted in the girders?" Before leaving the house that year, this boy named Fu Qingyun, who was two years older than her, came to send her off at the Junting Pavilion on the outskirts of Beijing, and they cared for each other. After being silent for a long time, this was the last sentence he spoke.

"Yes!" The young man patted his chest and said firmly, "When you come back, I will definitely let you see the Tianxiang Peony blooming."

There was a slight stab in the heart, and then a few ripples appeared, and Baili Changge lowered his eyes.

I heard from the old man in the mansion that Fu Qingyun was born after an aunt she had never met had an affair with a man. After giving birth to Fu Qingyun, her aunt and that man never appeared again, and they never appeared again until now. People know their news.

All in all, Fu Qingyun's life experience is even more pitiful than hers. This man without father and mother has lived a life worse than that of the servants in the mansion since he was a child. His uncle's Lord Hou Bailijing never asked about his affairs, and everyone regarded him as a disgrace to the Baili family.

At this point, Baili Changge was puzzled. Since Fu Qingyun was an illegitimate child, why did he stay when he was born?
But since he was a child, it seems that this cousin is the only one he can talk to, so in his heart, Baili Changge feels very lucky, fortunately, Fu Qingyun was not abandoned back then.

The woman who spoke just now was a helper in the kitchen of the outer courtyard, Baili Changge vaguely remembered her, and the other young woman was Lingchun, the eldest girl next to the third miss Bailishan.

Seeing that Fu Qingyun lowered his head and said nothing, the two glanced at each other and wanted to speak sarcastically.

Another chill hit, Baili Changge finally couldn't stand.

"Cousin Qingyun..." She came out from behind the old locust tree, smiling all over her face.

When Fu Qingyun heard Baili Changge's voice at first glance, she was so shocked that she almost shoveled the back of her hand.
