The night was like a thick piece of black silk, slowly falling over the pavilion by the water. The breeze blew gently, bringing a slight chill, but it could not dispel the tranquility of the night. Inside the pavilion, the lights flickered, casting the figures of several people on the wall, appearing a little hazy and mysterious.

After a while, Wu Gege came with the eldest Gege. Their steps were light and steady, as if they blended into the night. Then, Li Gege, holding the second prince, and Song Gege, holding the second Gege, also arrived. They greeted each other and sat down.

Wu Yazhixi's eyes unconsciously fell on the second prince in Li Gege's arms. His pink little face, with his eyes and eyebrows showing a heroic spirit, made people love him.

She secretly admired in her heart that Li Gege was really capable. She was able to give birth to two children for the Fourth Prince, one of whom was a prince. There must be something extraordinary about her.

So, Wu Yazhixi was the first to speak, and smiled at Li Gege: "Li Gege is so lucky, the second prince is so cute, he will definitely be a handsome and elegant young man in the future."

After hearing this, Li Gege smiled proudly and responded modestly: "No, no, it's all thanks to the grace of the prince and his wife. You're too kind, Gege."

However, Wu Yazhixi's words came to an abrupt end. She did not mention a word about the eldest and second princesses standing beside her, as if they did not exist.

The eldest and second princesses also noticed this, and their faces showed a look of loss and dissatisfaction. The eldest princess bit her lip and lowered her head in silence, while the second princess gently tugged at Song Gege's sleeve, with a gleam of grievance in her eyes.

Song Gege saw her daughters' dissatisfaction, so she gently patted the second Gege's hand, signaling her not to say too much. Then, she turned to Wu Yazhixi and smiled faintly, "Sister is really good at talking, and the second prince is indeed a lovely child. However, the first and second Gege are also the prince's flesh and blood, and they are also lovely in their own ways."

Wu Yazhixi was shocked when she heard what Song Gege said. She realized that her gaffe might have offended Song Gege and the other two Geges.

She quickly made amends, "Song Gege is right. The first and second Gege are also the prince's treasures. I know that. It's just that I saw the second prince just now and was so happy that I said a few more words."

Wu Gege also spoke up: "Yes, we are all the family of Lord Beile, we should live in harmony and share the worries of Lord Beile and his wife."

Wu Yazhixi nodded, secretly warning herself to be more careful with her words in the future. She knew that although she had some status in this mansion, she couldn't offend people casually.

Song Gege stood in the pavilion, her eyes swept across Wu Yazhixi's face sharply, taking in her slightly fawning and flattering expression. Song Gege couldn't help but sneer in her heart, thinking that Wu Yazhixi's appearance was really ridiculous.

She didn't say anything, just smiled faintly, then turned around and chatted with Wu Gege and Niu Hulu Qingran. Song Gege asked softly: "Wu Gege, how do you think the flowers are blooming this year?"

Wu Gege raised her head and looked at the sea of ​​flowers blooming outside the pavilion. Under the moonlight, the flowers bloomed one after another, competing with each other in beauty, forming a gorgeous scene. She smiled and said, "The flowers this year are particularly gorgeous, and each one seems to be telling its own story."

Niu Hulu Qingran also joined the conversation. She looked at the sea of ​​flowers and said softly, "Yes, every flower has its life cycle, just like us humans. From budding to blooming, and then to withering and falling, it is an inevitable process in nature. We should also cherish the time in front of us and live every day well."

The conversation between the three of them gradually deepened. They talked about interesting things in the mansion and shared each other's daily lives. Sometimes they laughed softly, sometimes they fell into deep thought, enjoying this rare tranquility and harmony.

On the other side, Li Gege continued to hold the Second Prince, accepting everyone's praise and envy. Her face was filled with a proud smile, enjoying the honor and respect. However, the first and second Gege stood aside silently, watching this scene, with mixed feelings in their hearts. They felt that they seemed to be ignored in this mansion, and they couldn't help feeling lost and dissatisfied.

As the night deepened, the lights in the pavilion gradually dimmed. Wu Yazhixi looked at the scene in front of her, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She suddenly felt that she seemed to be increasingly unable to find her place in this mansion. She wanted to integrate into this circle, but found that the distance between her and them was getting farther and farther.

She stood silently by, watching them chatting and laughing, but her heart was filled with loneliness and confusion.
