Chapter 635 Let’s go to the lotus pond together

Over the years, she has treated this daughter of an outsider like her own daughter regardless of past grudges, and this has reached her limit.

Miss Cheng Er was taken away with an aggrieved look on her face.

Not long after, Mrs. Cheng set her sights on Xiao Mianmian.

Xiao Mianmian felt a little bored and yawned several times.

Mrs. Cheng smiled and asked, "Does the little princess think our mansion is too boring?"

Xiao Mianmian opened her eyes wide and said with a smile: "It's indeed a bit boring."

Mrs. Cheng pulled her third daughter, Cheng Wan'er, forward and said, "Would you like our Wan'er to accompany you around?" ?.?????.???

Because Cheng Wan'er is the third child, she often does not receive the attention of her father and mother. She lives a cautious life at home and is a little timid, but she is kind and has a much better character than the second lady.

Xiao Mianmian looked her over and nodded with a smile.

Cheng Wan'er saw the princess for the first time and did not dare to look up at her.

Xiao Mianmian held her hand and asked with a smile: "Why don't you let sister Wan'er take me to the lotus pond in the backyard?"

The place where the banquet is held here is just a corner of the lotus pond. Going back, there will be a large lotus pond.

Seeing that Xiao Mianmian was very close to Cheng Wan'er, Mrs. Cheng was ecstatic and said with a smile: "Wan'er, you must remember to take good care of the princess."

"Yes, mother." Cheng Wan'er saluted Mrs. Cheng respectfully. Mother and daughter were not as easy-going as Mianmian and Du Wanchun.

Du Wanchun didn't say anything to stop her. Xiao Mianmian was no longer the little kid who couldn't speak and could only follow her. She had to learn to make decisions on her own.

Xiao Mianmian followed Cheng Wan'er and Du Wanchun to say goodbye and went to the lotus pond together.

The lotus pond is built in the mansion. I heard that Mr. Cheng personally built it for Mrs. Cheng.

Mrs. Cheng used to be just an orphan who picked lotus seeds and sold lotus flowers. Although her father was an official in the court, his official position was very low and he died young. She was adopted by Mr. Cheng's mother, and the two were childhood sweethearts.

Later, Master Cheng came to Beijing as the top scholar in high school and became an official, and Mrs. Cheng accompanied him all the way.

The couple has a deep love for each other and has aroused the envy of many people.

This lotus pond was built by Master Chao Cheng because he was afraid that Mrs. Cheng would miss her hometown. It took a lot of thought.

Unfortunately, this relationship did not last long, and Master Cheng fell in love with a singer in the waterside pavilion.

The singer was beautiful, eloquent, and had a charming personality, which fascinated Mr. Cheng.

Not only is she capable, she is also ruthless.

The matter between the two of them was brought to Mrs. Cheng's door several times.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Cheng is a soft-tempered person and will not confront her at all. When something happens, she will just cry in front of Mr. Cheng.

Master Cheng missed his childhood sweetheart with her and felt guilty, but he became better and better towards Mrs. Cheng.

The foreign minister was dissatisfied and dealt cruelly to Mrs. Cheng.

Mrs. Cheng was lucky, and the poison was accidentally eaten by Master Cheng's maid, killing one of her two.

For this reason, Mr. Cheng became indifferent to the foreign concubine. As time went by, the foreign concubine couldn't sit still and went to the Cheng Mansion to force him to have a baby.

At that time, Mrs. Cheng had just given birth to her eldest daughter, and when her body was weak, she was so angry that she almost suffered from severe bleeding.

Master Cheng was furious and drove the outer room out of the house.

The outside room used the child in her belly to force Master Cheng. Master Cheng felt sorry for the child and had to leave her alive.

Later, Wai Shi fell seriously ill and passed away, and sent her daughter back to Cheng Mansion.

Nowadays, things and people have changed, but this lotus pond is still the same as before.

Mianmian followed Cheng Wan'er on the boat leading to the lotus pond.

The air here is pleasant, and even the wind is filled with the fragrance of lotus flowers.

Cheng Wan'er looks like Mrs. Cheng. Although her appearance is not outstanding, she is dignified and beautiful, no worse than Miss Cheng.

"Sister Wan'er, look." Xiao Mianmian sat up and pointed towards a blooming lotus not far away.

The lotus flower is completely white, which is different from ordinary lotus flowers.

Cheng Wan'er stood up and reached out to pick the lotus flower.

The boat swayed a little, and Cheng Wan'er quickly steadied himself, turned around and handed the lotus flower to Mianmian.

Mianmian took it in her hand and accidentally saw the scar on the back of Cheng Wan'er's hand.

It was a scar that climbed like a centipede and must have been there for some time.

Mianmian looked in trance
