Chapter 223: Plum Garden
The red plum of Xiaofu has bloomed, the shadow is sparse and slanted, and the cold fragrance is dotted, which looks particularly bright in the snow.
The heavy snow stopped early, and there was a layer of snow on the ground.
Xiao Yu put on a silver-white fox fur cloak, carried a hand stove and walked through the garden, looking for Ling Yan who was stepping on the snow and appreciating the plum blossoms, but he didn't see anyone for a long time.
Only then did he bypass an old plum and bump into a person coldly.
A few maids next to him screamed.
Because of the etiquette before marriage, Hua Yue felt that she hadn't seen Xiao Yu for a long time. He thought that he only had a good impression of her, but because of the events of his childhood and Emperor Qi's repeated marriages, he felt that he was easy and happy to get along with her, so he asked Emperor Qi to marry her.
Unexpectedly, after the marriage, he couldn't help but think that she would come over early, especially in the past few months of separation, Hua Yue finally deeply appreciated what it was like to not see her for a day as if she had been separated from three autumns.
Although Hua Yue could learn what she was doing every day from the maids beside Xiao Yu and Ling Yi, she couldn't see her because of etiquette.
Recently, Hua Yue has been thinking about some tea and dinner, and she just can't wait for tomorrow to be the best time.
This morning, Ling Yi suddenly invited to enjoy the plum blossoms, Hua Yue was originally in a mood, but she never thought that she heard this familiar footsteps.
When Xiao Yu fell into her arms, Hua Yue subconsciously hugged her.
Familiar taste.
And here Xiao Yu didn't stand firm for a while, but also grabbed the placket of the visitor's clothes, and when he came back to his senses, he noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly let go and wanted to retreat.
I only heard a deep and nice voice above my head calling, "Ah Yu." β
Hua Yue!
Xiao Yu's face burned instantly, and even the roots of his ears were hot. Helpless to push him away. How did he end up here?
saw that Hua Yue didn't let go, but said as if bewitched: "Don't move, let me hug me." β
Xiao Yu's face turned even redder. hesitated, didn't struggle anymore, but reached out to wrap his hand around Hua Yue's waist and leaned stiffly on his chest.
A smile appeared on Hua Yue's lips, resisting the urge to kiss her, and quickly let go of her hand.
was a little reluctant for no reason, Xiao Yu hurriedly took two steps back in shock. Panicked and bowed his head and asked, "Dude, why are you here?" Have you seen Sister Yan? β
"I came here to enjoy the plum blossoms, but I didn't see Miss Ling." Hua Yue replied with a smile.
"Thisβthis...... Then I'll go find her. β
I couldn't understand why Ling Yan wasn't in the Plum Garden, and Xiao Yu was embarrassed to stay with Hua Yue. Immediately dropped a sentence and hurried away.
Only then did I find that several maids were still standing on the side, and their heads were almost lowered to the ground.
Xiao Yu really can't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
The corners of Hua Yue's lips were slightly raised.
There seemed to be a breath left by Xiao Yu in the wind, and the cold fragrance became gentle, Hua Yue casually broke a plum blossom and went out of the garden.
These days, my heart is full of Xiao Yu. Forgot to give Ling Yi the improved crossbow arrow. Thinking about it, he was already a little out of breath.
Xiao Yu came out of Merlin with a red face and red ears, and just saw Ling Yan standing not far away, laughing with the seventh sister-in-law.
Out of the corner of Ling Yan's eyes, she caught a glimpse of Xiao Yu coming out of the merlin, turned her head in surprise and said apologetically, "Sister Ayu, you are so early?" Did you wait for a long time in the plum garden, and see that this little face was frozen red. β
Hearing this, the corners of Xiao Yu's mouth couldn't help twitching a few times.
Feign! Keep loading!
Now that Xiao Yu has finally come to her senses, if she doesn't know what's wrong with it at this moment, it's really stupid.
The seventh sister-in-law, Yang, saw that there seemed to be something wrong with the two, and greeted Xiao Yu at the moment. I left first.
And Ling Yan still looked like she didn't know anything, and smiled Yingying stepped forward to take Xiao Yu's hand. said: "Let my sister wait for a long time." β
Xiao Yu smiled and said, "It's nothing." Sister Yan also invited others to enjoy the plum blossoms together? β
Ling Yan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head suspiciously, "No, could it be that Sister Ayu met someone else in the forest?" β
After speaking, he glanced at the maids of Yuzhu next to him, didn't find anything unusual, and turned his head again.
Also loaded!
Seeing this, Xiao Yu secretly despised Ling Yan in his heart before nodding and smiling: "Yes, I saw General Zhong in the garden just now, I thought it was Sister Yan who called him." β
There was already a hint of ridicule in his tone.
Ling Yan didn't expect it to be Zhong Lang, her face turned red after a moment's pause, and she hurriedly clarified: "I didn't invite General Zhong, maybe he came with the playboy." β
This time it was Xiao Yu's turn to look surprised and flustered: "The playboy is also here?" Shall I avoid it? But I also want to go back and add some clothes. Sister Yan, you know that I have always been afraid of the cold, and the wind in this garden makes me a little unbearable. β
However, Ling Yan heard that Zhong Lang was in the garden, and now that the relationship between the two had just progressed, she didn't want to miss the opportunity to meet like this.
But Xiao Yu has always disliked winter, especially when it snows, her palms are indeed a little cold at this time, and her face is so red just now that it is probably really frozen.
Ling Yan hesitated for a moment, and asked Yuzhu to escort Xiao Yu back to Qinghui Xiaozhu, and said, "This plum blossom is blooming just right, it's a pity that you don't appreciate it for a while when you come here, I'm waiting for my sister here, can you add a piece of clothing and come over?" β
Xiao Yu held back a smile and nodded.
Listening to this conversation, Yuzhu was speechless.
The big girl who served in such a big family, who was not a little clever, had long seen that Hua Yue's appearance in the plum garden must be related to Ling Yan.
Hearing the two of you coming and going to pit each other, I couldn't help but laugh and didn't know how hard it was to endure.
Xiao Yu was halfway through the journey, and suddenly asked, "Yuzhu, Xia Zhi, what did you just see in the plum forest?" β
Several maids looked at each other and said in unison, "We didn't see anything!" β
Xiao Yu nodded when she saw this, and couldn't help but think of the situation when she bumped into Hua Yue just now, her face was a little hot, and she coughed lightly uncomfortably.
Yuzhu immediately asked worriedly, "Is the county lord uncomfortable?" β
Now everyone in the Xiao Mansion knows that Xiao Yu is afraid of the cold, and at this moment, Yuzhu can't help but complain a little about Ling Yan: The county lord rarely goes out in winter, and he called his master out in order to appreciate the plum, but it was to meet the playboy, and Yu Li didn't agree, what if the county lord suffered from the cold.
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "It's nothing." β
There seemed to be warmth on Hua Yue's body in her heart, Xiao Yu suddenly felt that the fragrance of the plum blossom had become pleasant, and the cold of winter seemed to be less difficult.
There is nothing wrong with snow and plum blossoms.
The one who is wrong is the one who took away his parents. It's the season of worship again.
After returning to the house and sitting down, after only a few sips of hot tea, Ling Yan came over through gritted teeth. As soon as she saw Xiao Yu, she suddenly changed to a smile: "Sister Ayu, did you really see the playboy just now?" β
Xiao Yu subconsciously nodded, and suddenly found that Ling Yan was not talking about Zhong Lang but Hua Yue, and said with a blank but innocent face: "No, I saw from a distance that there was a person like General Zhong, so I quickly turned back, after all, I don't see many foreign men at this time." β
After speaking, he asked rhetorically: "You're right, Sister Yan." (To be continued......)
