Easy on Me, Snookums

After Chen Yuan left Bai Chichi and the others, she followed the gravel road in the courtyard to the small garden behind the house.

"Enjoy, you guys!" Chen Yuan saw everything in front of her, and said coldly from her mouth.

Because this small garden is indeed too delicate and beautiful, there is a layer of fine grass on the ground, and it can be seen that it has been carefully taken care of. Chen Yuan has reason to believe that Qin Xuesong invited someone to handle it because it was too professional.

The lawn is verdant, and there is a pool in the middle, which is an irregular shape, like a naturally formed pool.

The rockery in the pool was hewn from a piece of rock, and there was a waterfall rushing down happily. There was also a stream on the edge of the pool, and the spring water ding-dong.

The waterfall and the stream should circulate. The pebbles in the stream are washed shiningly and shattered like fish scales in the sun.

Around the lawn are some small flowers that Chen Yuan can't name, lavender swaying in the wind, with a faint fragrance.

There are stone stools and tables on the edge of the pool. They are all natural stones. They are simple and natural. Sitting on the stone stools and drinking tea, the subtle splashes of the waterfall will pounce on the face with the wind, giving it a natural fresh feeling.

Chen Yuan went around the rockery and found nothing special. Bai Chichi also said that there was some trick, which must be a mystery.

The backyard is especially suitable for one person, or two confidantes, to enjoy the moon quietly while drinking tea. Compared with the pomegranate flowers and the large magnetic cylinder in the front yard, it looks more peaceful.

The combination of moving and static is indeed unique.

How much did Qin Xuesong spend to buy this yard? He is so generous to lend to Bai Chichi's parents to live!

The more Chen Yuan thinks about it, the more frustrated, why can Bai Chichi be loved by so many people? What is so good about her?

Stupid, always so easy to trust others, not only is not smart, but also has a carefree personality, she is not a delicate woman at all.

Chen Yuan felt that Bai Chichi’s luck was really good. She was just an illegitimate daughter, but she was able to get the careful care of her father. She was held in the palm of her hand and grew up, and she was poor if she was poor. But love is by her side, Bai Chi Chi is still happy.

As for himself, even though he lives with his biological parents, how can one day be peaceful? Father was silent and mother was furious. Now Chen Yuan is a little scared when she thinks of this kind of day.

They are all the blood of a father, but Bai Chichi is superior to himself in every way! Chen Yuan always compares Bai Chichi with herself, the more the comparison makes her feel unbalanced.

Not only that, after seeing the mother-in-law, she also thought of her own mother, the poor mother who had almost crazily collapsed.

Mother Bai was blind. Originally, Chen Yuan thought it was God's punishment for her, but she didn't expect that she was so optimistic. Now she and Father Bai are still lovingly living in such a beautiful little yard, becoming happier and happier!

And Bai Chi-chi is about to give birth to a child, won't their family be happier by then?

Chen Yuan felt the same pain as the fire, and the laughter of Bai Chichi's family faintly reached her ears.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuan tried her best to calm down. She sat on the cold stone stool, thinking about how to separate Bai Chichi from Situ Qing.

The smoking incident failed, the comparable incident also failed, and even the fish stall falling incident just now failed. How did this happen? Could it be that God is also against himself?

Bai Chichi seems to be learning fine now. Maybe she knows that it was not an accident that she slipped in the fish stall, but she just didn't tell Situ Qing.

Chen Yuan thought, if Bai Chichi said it, it would be fine. When that happens, she can pretend to be wronged and pitiful, so that Situ Qing will be compassionate. Then he will lose patience with Bai Chi's petty narrowness and have a big fight. .

It's a pity that Bai Chichi didn't do that. Did she really think it was an accident?

Chen Yuan thought about it, and felt that the left and right were wrong, and she couldn't figure out what Bai Chi was thinking now.

This thought made Chen Yuan a little frustrated. She stood up and walked to the stream and took a handful of water. Only then did she discover that the water was actually cool groundwater, and the source was under the rockery.

Chen Yuan approached the rockery and saw a layer of fluffy moss on the rock. Upon closer inspection, there was a thin crack.

On the moss, there was a very small dwarf pine. Chen Yuan curiously moved the pocket pine tree, and the seam on the rockery opened slowly.

It turns out that this small pine tree is a doorknob, and the rockery is hollow, it's a small room!

As the door on the rockery was opened, the lights inside turned on.

It's really clever. Chen Yuan couldn't help but admire the designer of this rockery. Isn't this the treasure cave of Alibaba, if there are really treasures to hide.

After the lights are turned on, the rockery is as bright as day, and you can see some sundries inside, which should be a storage room.

Chen Yuan stood at the door and looked at it. She felt that there were nothing but idle things left by her father and mother. I'm afraid there are spider webs. The wooden boxes look old.

Fearing that there would be a lot of dust in the storage room, Chen Yuan slapped her hand in front of her eyes, and then wanted to pull the short pine to close the door.

Just when Chen Yuan was about to stretch out her hand, she suddenly saw a small box on the boxes, and she stopped closing the door.

What's in that little box? Is there any secret?

Chen Yuan instinctively felt that since Mother Bai dared to destroy other people's families when she was young, and boldly gave birth to illegitimate children, she must have hidden many secrets.

Or Bai Mu thought that after so long time, many things must have been forgotten, so she casually put her secrets here in dust.

But how could she have thought that her rival's daughter would come to the door to settle accounts with her one day! Chen Yuan gritted her teeth and decided to go in and take a look.

Walking to the front of the small box, Chen Yuan stretched out her hand to pick it up, and found that the small box was quite delicately made, with small plum blossoms carved in it, and it smelled of fragrance.

Originally, this box should be locked, but now it's lying in Chen Yuan's hands so casually, without defense at all.

The box was very light, and Chen Yuan felt that there was nothing in it. She was a little disappointed, but since I picked it up, let's take a look.

Chen Yuan opened the lid of the box and found that it was really empty and there was nothing. She shook her head, feeling that she was wrong.

Since you want to hide the treasure, you will definitely hide it in a place where you can rest assured, how can you just throw it in the storage room casually.

It seems that this place is indeed just a place for stacking sundries. Chen Yuan saw that the wooden boxes on the ground were also the kind used by their parents when they got married many years ago. They were big and heavy.

Forget it, let's go out. When Chen Yuan put the small box back on top of the big wooden box, she suddenly felt a rustle inside the small box.

Chen Yuan quickly picked it up again and checked it carefully, and found that the bottom of the small box was a small drawer, but it was not easy to find.

When I opened it, there was only one photo lying there alone.

Chen Yuan picked it up and saw that the picture was a woman. Judging from her eyebrows, she should be when the mother was young.

At that time, the mother-in-law was not blind, and she was still young, but she was in her early twenties, very pure and beautiful.

In the photo, the white mother's skin is smooth, two slender eyebrows, big eyes, and eyelashes can be seen on the double eyelids. He has a tall and small nose, plump and round lips, and two thick braids hanging down on his chest.

The white mother wore a floral round neck dress with a thin waist, one leg behind the other, her hands playfully stuck in her waist.

She really is a beauty!

Chen Yuan was shaking slightly with the picture of Bai Mu.

Yes, she is much more beautiful than her mother, no wonder Bai Chichi is better than herself in appearance.

Thinking of her mother at the time, how helpless and terrified she would be when she met such a powerfully competitive opponent!

Chen Yuan looked at the back of the photo, and wrote a few charming little characters "for my dear sea".

sea? Which sea must be my father Yu Zhenhai! Chen Yuan is going crazy. How could this woman be so shameless, how could she call someone else's husband like that? How many people's suffering has been caused by her shamelessness?

Chen Yuan couldn't wait to tear up this photo right away, but she didn't have it, so she decided to put it back so that the white mother would not find it.

But Chen Yuan changed her mind, or Bai Mu herself had forgotten this photo, otherwise she would not lose it here.

Well, since you don't want it, let me take it away. I will definitely take it out often to remind myself not to forget the deep hatred!

Thinking of this, Chen Yuan put the photo in her pocket, then put the small box as it was, walked out and closed the door.

Dipping some spring water with her hand and wiping her face, Chen Yuan returned to her free expression, and then returned to the front yard.

"Brother-in-law Qing, Uncle Bai, where is Sister Chi Chi?" Chen Yuan saw Situ Qing drinking tea and chatting with Father Bai.

"Cook in the kitchen." Situ Qing looked at the direction of the kitchen.

Chen Yuan said, "How can I let Sister Chi Chi do it? I blame me for being playful and forgetting the time!"

"Why, Yuanyuan, did you discover the secret of that rockery?" Father Bai said with a smile.

"Yeah, Uncle Bai, I know that rockery is a storage room! It's great, beautiful and uses space!" Chen Yuan said while observing Father Bai's expression.

Father Bai nodded: "Yes, that design is really clever, and it's also the finishing touch!"

"Yes, if I have the money to buy a house with a garden in the future, I will also make a rockery like this!" Chen Yuan finished speaking, thinking that Father Bai might not know that there is a picture of the white mother in the rockery, so she went to the kitchen to help. went.

Seeing that everyone liked the courtyard, Situ Qing was even more upset about Qin Xuesong. What's the point of his pretentious attitude?

Since your house was bought and sold at a high price, I can afford it, but you are so hypocritical!

"Dad, can you tell Cedar to sell this house to us." Situ Qing said to Father Bai.

"You don't need to buy it. I heard Chier talk about it before. There is no need to spend such a large sum of money!"
