"It's not early," Su Heting blew out the candle and pushed Yuan Ning out of the studio, "Hurry up and go to sleep, otherwise I won't have the energy tomorrow, and I'll leave too." ”

Yuan Ning stood in the courtyard, watching Su Heting like a raccoon cat, jumping lightly on the roof, waving his hand at her, jumping down, and disappearing into the night, and then went back to the room to sleep.

From the next day, Su Heting really came over as soon as he was free, as he said.

He used to come a lot, so even if he appeared more often now, no one would find it strange.

At most, he thought that he pitied a few children without his husband's counseling, and came to help.

But I never seriously thought about it, if I just found a "tutor" for the children, I didn't have to be condescending to the county lord.

Between the ears and temples, the relationship between Su Heting and Yuan Ning also warmed up day by day, although there was no transgressive behavior.

In this way, more than half a month passed.

The first snow of the winter fell.

originally thought that Su Heting would not come in such weather, but after dinner, Yuan Ning urged his younger brother and sister Wen Shu to go and lock the back door.

The weather is bad, Aunt Zhang and Sister-in-law Liu want to go home and settle down at home, so they are not there, Aunt Luo is here, but she doesn't like to be lively, she is alone in the room, and she doesn't know what to do.

Yuan Ning came to the door with a lantern and stepped on the snow, and just as he plugged in, there was a "creaking" sound of footsteps stepping on the snow outside the door.

She paused her hand and waited for a while, when the sound of "peeling peck" came from the door.

She opened the small curtain on the door, and when she looked out, she saw Su Heting standing outside with a big curtain.

Yuan Ning hurriedly opened the door, "It's so late, and the weather is not good, why did you come over?" ”

Su Heting reached out and touched her hand, pushing her to turn around, "You go back to the house first, I'll come to the door." "With quick hands and feet, he put on all the open and dark locks.

Yuan Ning blinked, "You are ...... are you not ready to go back?"

Su Heting curled the corners of her lips, took a few steps forward, and reached out to hold her hand in the palm of her hand, "What?" Want to kick me away? ”

Yuan Ning gave him a big roll of the eyes, "If I chase you, you will leave?" ”

"Don't go!" Su Heting salivated and said, "Alas, I'm so easy to come over, how can I be willing to leave!" ”

Even if you can't grind with her ears and temples, but under the same roof, it's much better than not seeing each other.

Yuan Ning pursed his lips, lowered his eyebrows and smiled, if in the past, he would never dare to think that Su Heting would be so clingy.

Entering the hall, Bo Zhong, who heard the movement, had already come out, and he was also surprised and delighted when he saw Su Heting, "Brother Su! ”

Su Heting smiled at him, "How's your homework?" ”

"The books are all warm," Bo Zhong laughed, "and if you don't come, we'll have to wash up and sleep." ”

"I'll check it out." Su Heting said and relieved the big fray, and Yuan Ning took it to the door to dust off the snow on it and hung it on the shelf at the door to dry.

Su Heting stepped in, checked their homework, and then explained to them the way to become an official.

Of course, he used the most understandable language and spoke the most simple truths.

Several children, except for Ji Xiu, listened to it with relish.

Yuan Ning came in to deliver water, and when he saw Ji Xiu dozing, he took her to settle down and sleep.

When I came over again, I saw that Su Heting had already sent a few small ones to wash, and when I saw her coming over, I whispered, "You don't mind if I tell them this, do you?" ”

Although Yuan Ning didn't listen to it all, he also listened to it and shook his head, "It's okay, they can't live under my protection for the rest of their lives, what the outside is like in the first place, and it's not bad to know it in advance." ”

Su Heting quietly squeezed her hand, "It's good if you don't blame me." ”

Yuan Ning raised his eyes and glanced at him, lowered his voice and said, "They are all asleep, you go to the room where I do my work and wait for me." ”

Su Heting nodded in agreement. Also go out and wash. The snow was getting heavier and heavier outside, and he had already promised Bo Zhong that they would stay overnight.

The kang over there was big enough to sleep the three of them, not to mention a bed in the bedroom.

The small courtyard soon sank into silence.

Su Heting and the other two boys around him fell asleep, so they quietly got up and dressed, tiptoed out, and entered Yuan Ning's studio.

Yuan Ning waited for Zhong Ling to also fall asleep, and then quietly got up.

Su Heting only waited for half an hour before Yuan Ning came over.

It was not cold at all in her house with a stove burning during the day, but at night the fire went out, and she didn't feel anything when she first came in, but after a while, she felt cold all over.

Yuan Ning quickly took a wooden box and handed it to Su Heting, "Well, a gift for you." ”

Su Heting smiled and opened the wooden box, but he was stunned.

Inside is a set of bronze ware of Meilan bamboo chrysanthemum, which is very delicately made, and there are tassels, decorated with glass beads of average size.

It's just that this flat thing doesn't look like a hairpin.

He picked up a bamboo one and gestured it over his head.

What does a man's hairpin with a tassel look like!

Yuan Ning couldn't help laughing, "This is not a hairpin!" ”

"Huh?" Su Heting was puzzled, she stared at his hair carefully, didn't she want to make a hairpin for him.

Yuan Ning picked one up and explained with a smile, "This is a bookmark." You take it, and when you have to put it down, you just clip this in, and you have a curvature here, and it won't damage the page, and you can read it again next time.

"This way, you don't have to hold the book and put it away, and you don't have to fold the pages, which is very convenient.

"I know you still need to flip through the legal code from time to time, and other books are fine, but they are not very thick, you have a good memory, you should not be mistaken, but the legal code is different, I guess some of the laws are similar."

It's really a very practical thing, but as a token of love, it seems that there is still something missing.

Su Heting put the box into his sleeve and stared at her, "I know you're working hard to do this, but ...... Don't you think it'......"

"I knew you weren't content!" Yuan Ning glanced at him with a smile, and took out a smaller and more delicate box with a flip of his hand, "Open it and take a look." ”

Su Heting opened it and saw that it was a small and delicate thing, a cicada-shaped, made of brass, inlaid with broken shiny gem fragments, and there was a needle behind the branch held by the cicada.

"What is this?" He hadn't really seen anything like it.

"It's called a brooch, and it's used for decoration." Yuan Ning took it and pinned it to the placket on his chest, "Look, you can take it with you wherever you go, the implication is okay." ”

It happened to be the left chest, close to the heart, and as the heart beats, the brooch also trembles slightly, and the cicada seems to be alive.

Su Heting's gaze moved from the brooch to Yuan Ning's face, "Are you expecting me to be a blockbuster?" ”
