The Rebirth of the First Daughter: The Crown Prince

Chapter 212 To You, I Never Joke (1)

Hearing this, Mo Xi raised her head and smiled helplessly: "It's not a clever plan, but if Mrs. Bai is really smart, she will definitely think of a way to make up for Lian'er's fault."

After saying that, Mo Xi lowered her head again, counting the accounts in her hands. Seeing Mo Xi's busy appearance, Lu Yao stopped talking about this matter, and only helped Mo Xi and Bi Xiu to start tidying up together.

Although Luyao didn't know much about the ledger, she could still transcribe it.She grew up in the mansion since she was a child, and learned a few words. Although the handwriting is not excellent, it is neat.

So, the three of them got busy until sunset, they just sorted out a little, and there were still many things that hadn't been sorted out, so they could only wait and take their time. The three of them left the study immediately, with Bixiu behind, Lock the door of the study.

Mo Xi went back to the yard, because she had been sitting in the study all afternoon, her back was aching.

Luyao is a careful person. Seeing Mo Xi beating her back, she walked over immediately, and said in a warm voice, "Miss, are you tired? How about this servant rubbing your shoulders for you?"

Hearing this, Mo Xi raised her head, glanced at Luyao, smiled gently, and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Those things can't be sorted out in a day, girl, don't worry." Lu Yao and Mo Xi slumped their backs, Bixiu was on the side, poured a cup of tea for themselves, turned their heads, and said to Mo Xi.

"This matter should be done as early as possible, so I can feel more at ease." No way, one day, she will no longer be in this Mo family, and if she has made arrangements earlier, even if she leaves in the future, she can feel at ease.

Mo Xi thought, it's just these things, but it's not easy to tell Bi Xiu.

However, even if Mo Xi didn't say anything, Bixiu and Luyao felt something in their hearts.After all, Mo Xi is already sixteen now. If a woman of this age was placed in other aristocratic families, she would probably have married long ago. Because there is a Bai family, Mo Xi has been dragging her all these years.

Bixiu looked at Mo Xi with a depressed mood, lowered her head, saw the sunset outside, and the scenery was beautiful, she thought again, Mo Xi hadn't left the house for a long time, so she immediately suggested: "Girl, now the sunset, Why don't girls go out for a walk?"

Hearing this, Mo Xi raised her head, glanced at Bixiu, saw the worry in Bixiu's eyes, turned her head, and looked at the sky painted by the colorful clouds, thinking about going out for a walk.

Thinking like this, the three of them tidied up and stepped out of the Mo residence.Because she planned to go for a walk in a quiet place, Mo Xi did not take a sedan chair, but led two servant girls out through the back door, and went for a walk by the creek that was far away from the Mo residence.

The creek in winter is calm and peaceful, unlike the noise in spring. There are piles of snow on both sides of the bank, and the sound of "creaking" comes from the feet stepping on the snow. Being in such a peaceful environment, I feel that my whole heart is following calmed down.

As far as the field of vision is concerned, it is pale, and when you look up slightly, you can see the magnificent sky, which is too beautiful to behold. Not far away, there are only dry trees left in the woods, with few leaves, and it looks a little desolate.

"I never thought that the scenery in winter can be so magnificent." Looking at the world covered by snow, Mo Xi sighed.

"Young lady is indeed an elegant person. This servant only looks at the large expanse of white snow, and besides that, she also saw—" Bixiu rolled her eyes, smiled, and pointed out, "The fish swimming in the stream."

Hearing this, Mo Xi and Lu Yao were taken aback for a moment, but then laughed.

It was originally a quiet atmosphere, but because of Bixiu's words, it became joyful.

Luyao looked at Mo Xi and smiled, and gave Bixiu an appreciative look, Bixiu raised her eyebrows with a bit of smugness on her face.

Just as the few people were laughing happily, a mellow voice came from behind, which surprised Mo Xi.

"Xi'er~"

Mo Xi was taken aback, her body stiffened for a moment.She almost forgot how many days she hadn't heard this voice.

Mo Xi turned her head and glanced at Bixiu with a bit of coldness in her eyes.

Bixiu lowered her head guiltily, and murmured: "Girl, I'm sorry, this servant just thinks that the girl is so depressed, it's better to meet her and explain the matter clearly."

Hearing this, Mo Xi came to a sudden realization. It turned out that Bixiu thought that Mo Xi felt a little lost occasionally because of Jing Xiao.

At the moment Mo Xi couldn't laugh or cry, she didn't know what to say about Bi Xiu, but no matter how many thoughts she had in her heart, now was not the time to teach Bi Xiu, Mo Xi sighed, turned around, put on a calm smile on her face, and called out: "Brother Xiao!"

The woman in front of her still had the same clear and shallow smile as before, and still had that indifferent and calm appearance. However, after not seeing her for a few months, Jing Xiao suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a layer of veil between the two of them. In front of his eyes, but he seemed to no longer be able to see her clearly!
There are thousands of words in my heart, and I want to confide in them, but the last thing I say is only one sentence: "How are you doing these days?"

"Very good, how is Brother Xiao doing?"

He wanted to answer "very bad", but in the end he just replied lightly: "Yeah." After thinking for a while, he said again: "May I go for a walk?"

No, she could still find thousands of reasons to refuse. Seeing him now, his words have reached this point, so Mo Xi naturally couldn't refuse, so she could only nod in response.

Time seems to go back to a year ago, but the same two people, but different scenes.

At that time, the lotus pond was under the moonlight, and the moon was setting before the flowers, but now it is deep winter and the sun is setting.

Same people, different scenery, different state of mind.

People are, things are not, scenes are different, and love is no longer there.

Unlike the happy conversation that day, now that the two of them are walking together, there is nothing but embarrassment and weirdness flowing in the air.

She didn't become his wife as he thought, and he wasn't the man and son-in-law she thought.

"Why don't you see me behind closed doors?" After a long time, Jing Xiao said coldly.

"Brother Xiao and Lian'er have a marriage contract. As Lian'er's older sister, I should avoid it." It is clearly in line with the rules, and it should be so, but these words are harsh to Jing Xiao's ears. I really don't like to hear it.

"It's just that the mother and concubine agreed, and now there are no three matchmakers and six hires, how can it count?" Sen Leng's tone, when he said this, was faintly annoyed.

Hearing this, Mo Xi was taken aback for a moment, raised her head, and met Jing Xiao's eyes, deep eyes, mixed with coldness, her brows were furrowed, as if she was extremely dissatisfied with her words.

With a sound of "puchi", the woman was expecting to cry earnestly, but Jing Xiao saw the woman's bright smile instead of coming, and what followed was that seemingly gentle but cruel sentence: "I never thought that brother Xiao would also I'm going to be joking!"

In a word, it was plain, but it made Jing Xiao's heart sink.

A gust of wind blew across his cheeks, and he felt as if a knife was scratching his cheeks, and his heart was astringent, a little painful, an indescribable feeling.

He stood in front of Mo Xi just like that, staring at him blankly, frowning slightly, with suspicion in his eyes, as if trying to discern whether the woman standing in front of him was the gentle woman he knew.

For a long time, a man's deep voice was heard in the air: "Xi'er, I never joked with you!"
