Origin System, I have a barren mountain

Chapter 58: An Old Acquaintance?

Cheng Yunmo returned to the mansion and looked at Zhenying following behind him.

Zhenying was not a great beauty, and she was dressed as a palace maid. When she arrived at her residence, she had an inexplicable air of seriousness and order.

She was just as special as Empress Mu Wanwan; despite being in a chaotic world, she was not in any sorry state.

Cheng Yunmo was actually curious, wondering why Lord Liu said Zhenying was a lucky person.

She's not human, so even if Zhenying has some good luck, it probably won't be able to give her anything.

"Zhenying, please sit down."

Cheng Yunmo coughed lightly, feeling a little awkward, before saying, "As you can see, my residence isn't large, and I don't need any servants. You can stay here and make yourself at home."

When Zhenying was allowed to enter the mansion by Lord Cheng, she noticed that the entire mansion was cold and dark, with no sunlight. The only room with sunlight was also empty, as could be seen from the dust accumulated at the door.

"grown ups."

Zhenying bowed, her attitude gentle.

"what?"

Cheng Yunmo stared blankly at Zhenying.

"Sir, you shouldn't be afraid of the sun. You're not some monster, so why don't you like the houses over there that get plenty of sunlight?"

As soon as Zhenying arrived, she began to pay attention to Cheng Yunmo's diet and daily life.

Cheng Yunmo thought of Deyunzi, but it seemed that she had forgotten about Song Song and her ever since Deyunzi returned to the palace.

Although Deyunzi was rescued by the chief eunuch, he seemed to have suffered a great blow and kept avoiding her.

For some reason, Cheng Yunmo thought of her ex-husband, the man who once kept her in a sunless room, and who, even when he was cheating on her, didn't want her to leave.

These past few days, if it weren't for Lord Liu, I wouldn't want to leave this house at all. Every time I fall asleep, I dream about my ex-husband.

Although he was already dead, in the dream he seemed to have come back to life, and just standing there made me feel very scared.

Zhenying spoke several sentences in a row, while Lord Cheng remained in a daze.

Could it be that?

Cheng Yunmo thought the matter was over, but she didn't expect Zhenying to insist on taking her out.

"Lord Cheng, please come with me outside. We'll buy some things and decorate the whole mansion. After all, this is your mansion, isn't it?"

Cheng Yunmo was stunned, never imagining that the residence bestowed upon her by the Emperor could be her home.

Aside from the basic bedding in the room, everything else is exactly the same as it was when the Emperor bestowed the mansion upon her.

"No need, who knows what the future holds..."

However, Zhenying refused to listen.

Zhenying led Cheng Yunmo to the street, which was never so lively before.

Along the way, there were only children, each accompanied by their young grandparents. Some of their baskets were filled with fresh vegetables, while others contained flowers.

When Zhenying saw the beautiful flowers being picked, she went over to choose some.

Cheng Yunmo didn't know about these flowers, because he didn't pay much attention to them. However, after they gathered these wildflowers that could be found everywhere on the mountain, they looked very beautiful.

If she hadn't been with Zhenying, she wouldn't have noticed these beautiful flowers at all.

A group of children surrounded Zhenying, and these children seemed to like Zhenying very much.

"Sister, you are so beautiful."

Many children surrounded Zhenying, and one of them couldn't help but speak up.

Cheng Yunmo looked at the children with some surprise; these children were really good at talking.

Upon hearing this, Zhenying's eyes lit up with a smile.

"Little girl, you're so pretty too."

Cheng Yunmo stood to the side, like an invisible person, and did not receive any attention from the children.

It wasn't until Zhenying made sure Cheng Yunmo looked at her when choosing flowers that the children noticed Cheng Yunmo.

"big sister."

Cheng Yunmo didn't realize it at first, thinking the child was talking about Zhenying, but she didn't expect that the child was calling her.

The little boy stretched out his tiny hand and then looked up at Cheng Yunmo earnestly.

"Big sister, this is for you."

When Cheng Yunmo saw the large slice of watermelon handed to him by the child, he was stunned. This watermelon?

"Big sister, don't you remember me? I've met the Emperor. Back then, the seeds you gave the Emperor were watermelon seeds, and I got a very big watermelon."

Cheng Yunmo was stunned for a moment. "That was a long time ago. Little friend, where did you get this watermelon?"

"It's a seed."

Cheng Yunmo finally understood and took it.

"Thank you, little friend."

As Cheng Yunmo spoke, he took a bite of watermelon.

She had just taken a bite of watermelon when she noticed a message suddenly appearing on the virtual panel.

At that moment, she opened it and took a look.

It turns out that he received a tip from a child.

Cheng Yunmo saw that there was also a gift for the child in the message, and took it out.

Cheng Yunmo obtained a clean set of children's clothes from the void.

The child stared wide-eyed at the clothes that seemed to have appeared out of thin air.

"Wow."

After the child left with the clothes, Cheng Yunmo carefully looked at the gossip. Upon seeing its contents, his heart sank.

As Zhenying was holding the flowers and preparing to pay, she saw Cheng Yunmo take out some silver.

“Let me do it. I’ve saved up a lot of money in the palace. If I had somewhere to spend it, I wouldn’t be dragging you here, Lord Cheng.”

Zhenying, carrying the blooming flowers, arrived at the mansion and looked at Lord Cheng Yunmo.

"Sir, did that child reveal something to you?"

Zhenying made no attempt to hide her knowledge, seemingly having known about it all along, and asked.

"How did you know?"

Cheng Yunmo was taken aback, thinking that Zhenying could see the virtual screen.

"I'm used to it, because everyone around me seems to encounter good things."

Cheng Yunmo paused for a moment, but didn't mention what it was about.

It wasn't until nightfall that Cheng Yunmo suddenly woke up from her sleep and immediately noticed the commotion at the door.

At night, Cheng Yunmo wasn't afraid of anything. Ever since she started dying, she wasn't afraid of the night anymore.

But I don't know why, today was no different from usual.

With a creak, a faint black shadow appeared at the doorway, trying to open it.

Cheng Yunmo couldn't help but feel a jolt of surprise, wondering if it might be Zhenying.

Just as I was thinking about her, suddenly, I saw another dark figure appear.

state!

The dark figure fell to the ground upon hearing the sound, making quite a commotion.

"Who dares to be so bold as to lay a hand on my master right under my nose?"

"Master, don't be afraid, are you awake?" Zhenying whispered from the doorway.
