"Slip carefully." Sheng Yanxuan saw how slippery the snow was and was afraid that something would happen to Chu Qingxue, so he kept watching her nervously.
When Chu Qingxue heard Sheng Yanxuan's concerned words, a sweet smile appeared on her face: "I know! Don't worry, I won't fall!"
After saying that, Chu Qingxue stuck out her tongue playfully, and then ran towards the center of the snow. Seeing her like this, Sheng Yanxuan shook her head helplessly and followed Chu Qingxue.
Chu Qingxue turned a corner by the lake and saw a small pavilion on the shore.
The pavilion is surrounded by plum trees, and their branches stretch into the sky, like a huge birdcage. There are many flowers and plants planted next to the pavilion, but unfortunately they are all covered with snow. The top of the pavilion is the same, and you can’t see clearly what it looks like.
But you can vaguely see the paintings on the four walls of the pavilion, which are full of poems.
"Next spring, how about we come here to have tea?" Chu Qingxue turned to Sheng Yanxuan and said with longing in her eyes.
She has already imagined the beautiful scenery in the backyard next spring. The warm sun shines into the courtyard. She and he sit in the pavilion and enjoy the beautiful scenery while drinking tea.
Sheng Yanxuan looked down at her and smiled, then nodded: "Well, okay."
"When we are old, we will plant flowers and raise birds here, and watch each other grow old...Chu Qingxue murmured softly as she walked outside the pavilion.
Her eyes were full of expectation and longing, causing ripples in Sheng Yanxuan's heart.
Being able to grow old together with her is probably the happiest thing in this life.
"Hey! There are actually apricots on that tree!" Chu Qingxue suddenly saw the apricots growing on the tree, and she exclaimed in surprise.
Sheng Yanxuan looked around and saw apricots on the tree. He approached Chu Qingxue and followed her line of sight.
Sure enough, I saw two apricots on the tree. The color of the almonds was very attractive.
Chu Qingxue's eyes lit up. She had never seen apricots growing on a tree, so she was so excited. She immediately picked up her legs and ran under the tree, completely ignoring the snow outside and the snow on the snow.
Seeing this, Sheng Yanxuan quickly caught up and grabbed her wrist.
Chu Qingxue couldn't stand still, she threw herself forward, and finally plunged into the snow. Fortunately, the snow was thick enough, so she wouldn't suffer a bloody head fall.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Chu Qingxue covered her face and sat in the snow, crying. She felt that she was so embarrassed that she could fall even while walking, and she was still in such embarrassment in front of Sheng Yanxuan.
Sheng Yanxuan watched her sitting on the ground crying, shook her head helplessly, and squatted down to help her clean the snow off her head.
"Okay, don't you want to eat apricots?" Sheng Yanxuan helped Chu Qingxue up.
Chu Qingxue raised her head and looked at him, tearful and pitiful, like a kitten who had been wronged.
Sheng Yanxuan felt soft, lowered his head and kissed the tears on her cheek, and then asked softly: "Do you still want to eat apricots now?"
The little crybaby raised his head with a red nose and looked at the red apricots on the tree. Now it seemed as if he was laughing at them.
She bit her lip and said unconvinced: "I have to eat it! It's their fault that I fell down and ate shit!"
"Okay, let's eat apricots. I'll pick them for you." Sheng Yanxuan rubbed her head lovingly, then took her hand towards the apricot tree, and reached out a few bright red apricots.
"Wow, this one is big! Let's eat this!" Chu Qingxue pointed at a larger apricot and shouted.
"Okay, okay." Sheng Yanxuan pinched her nose lovingly, and then handed her a few apricots in his hand.
Chu Qingxue took the apricots in his hand, peeled one open and put it in her mouth, then narrowed her eyes with satisfaction.
Apricots have delicious flesh, sweet taste, and are delicious to eat.
Seeing Chu Qingxue's satisfied expression, Sheng Yanxuan couldn't help laughing. He took out a tissue and wiped the juice from the corners of Chu Qingxue's mouth.
Chu Qingxue looked at Sheng Yanxuan's gentle expression and felt sweet in her heart, as if she had eaten honey.
"You eat without washing, what a greedy little cat." Sheng Yanxuan lightly scratched the tip of her nose, and then wiped off all the dirt on her cheeks with a handkerchief. Looking at her like a greedy little cat, Sheng Yanxuan couldn't help laughing.
Laughed out loud.
His laughter was as sweet as a silver bell. Listening to it, Chu Qingxue couldn't help but laugh along with his laughter.
"Why are you laughing? You just laugh at me!" Chu Qingxue pouted, stared at Sheng Yanxuan dissatisfied, and then reached out to slap his hand away.
Seeing her reaction, Sheng Yanxuan couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, stop making trouble, let's go home." He took his hand back and looked at Chu Qingxue holding Xingzi with one hand and smiling brightly, and he couldn't help but laugh.
When they returned to the villa, they opened the door and shook off the snow from their bodies. Chu Qingxue's face turned red from the cold, and she ran to the living room with Xingzi in her arms.
Sheng Yanxuan walked behind and looked at her fondly, then handed the things in his hands to the servant and ordered the servant to prepare hot water and ginger soup for the young lady to soak her feet to dispel the cold.
"Yes, young master." The maid took the things in Sheng Yanxuan's hands and then stepped back respectfully.
"Of course..." As soon as Chu Qingxue sat down, she wanted to ask Li Ran to come out and see what good things she had brought back, but the next second she was covered by Sheng Yanxuan.
Chu Qingxue blinked and looked at Sheng Yanxuan doubtfully.
His eyes were shining as brightly as stars, as if he was hinting to Chu Qingxue not to let anyone disturb their world.
"Shh, did you call them over and you wanted them to see your face turning red from the cold, or did you want them to see you crying?" Sheng Yanxuan lowered his voice and whispered in Chu Qingxue's ear.
Chu Qingxue was struck by what he said, and she quickly covered her mouth.
She didn't want others to know that she was stupid enough to fall into the snow just now, and she fell to pieces because of greed.
"Okay, okay, I won't scream anymore." Chu Qingxue lowered her voice to answer Sheng Yanxuan, for fear that her voice would be too loud for people outside to hear.
The maid arranged the hot towels and ginger tea one by one, and also placed the hot water basin in front of Chu Qingxue.
Just as he was about to squat down and wash the young lady's feet, Sheng Yanxuan stopped him.
"You should go out first." Sheng Yanxuan looked at the maid and said. After hearing this, the maid had no choice but to leave first.
Chu Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief after seeing her leaving.
"I can just do it myself." Chu Qingxue raised her head and said to Sheng Yanxuan.
Sheng Yanxuan looked at her with a hint of helplessness.
When Chu Qingxue saw him staring at her, her cheeks suddenly turned red, and then she lowered her head and did not dare to look at Sheng Yanxuan.
"I……"
As soon as Chu Qingxue opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Sheng Yanxuan.
"I'll do it, just sit down obediently." Sheng Yanxuan touched her head lovingly, then picked up a towel to wipe the snowflakes on her face.
Wiping the warm towel on her face, Chu Qingxue actually felt like she was a child again for a moment.
