Chapter Eighty-Six: The First Snow Has Arrived
Prince Chung's Mansion.
The north wind is bitter, the chill hits, and the snow is gradually falling.
As soon as Xiao Yu stepped out of the house, he shivered coldly, turned around and went back to the house, frowning, "Why is it suddenly so cold today, Chang'an can still stand it?" ”
A few days ago, Xiao Yu begged Prince Zhong to help him invite Xie Chang'an with his three-inch tongue and coquettish and grinding skills, but Prince Zhong naturally couldn't refuse, so she had to personally post to the Lin family, and made an appointment to go to Tongguang Temple to incense today, not wanting to have snowflakes floating today.
"Little boy, it's cold outside today, Tianqing will add another cloak to you."
Xiao Yu couldn't ask for it, clapped his hands and said anxiously: "Come on, come on, Yu'er is cold, quickly dress Yu'er!" Tianqing waited for Xiao Yu to put on his cloak, then turned around and picked up the hand stove from the table and handed it to Xiao Yu, "Little boy, this hand stove will warm your hands." ”
Xiao Yu seemed to see something unsightly, and stepped back without saying a word, with a disgusted face, waving his hands, and resisting the hand stove in Tianqing's hand with all his heart. Xiao Yu secretly slandered himself, he is a handsome and dashing beautiful son, how can he be ruined by a tall and majestic image? The hand stove is obviously used by women, and Tianqing is not harming him......
Tian Qing followed the temptation, "Little boy, it's cold outside, if you don't take this hand stove and turn around and freeze your hands, you won't be uncomfortable." Seeing that Xiao Yu was still resisting, Tianqing thought about it and said with a smile: "Little boy, if you don't need it, you can bring it to Miss Xie Er, presumably Miss Xie Er will love it." ”
"Chang'an has it, Chang'an itself has it!" Xiao Yu's face was full of "You think I'm stupid".
Seeing that Xiao Yu was soft and hard and didn't eat, Tianqing had no choice but to put the hand stove aside first and get busy with other things first. Taking advantage of Tianqing's unpreparedness, Xiao Yu rushed out of the door and ran towards the courtyard of Prince Zhong, so anxious that Tianqing shouted while chasing: "Little boy, you run slowly!" Be careful......"
Xiao Yu didn't hear it, and ran into the courtyard of Prince Zhong and Princess Zhong in a puff of smoke, before anyone arrived, the voice arrived first, "Mother, mother, Yu'er is here to find Mother, where are you, Mother." Xiao Yu went straight to the main hall, this prince and princess should be eating.
Hearing Xiao Yu's shout, Prince Zhong smiled lovingly and ordered: "Prepare a pair of dishes and chopsticks for Yu'er again." As soon as the words fell, I saw Xiao Yu striding in, his face was ruddy, there was fine sweat on his forehead, and he was panting slightly.
Prince Zhong hurriedly beckoned: "Yu'er, come to my mother's place quickly, have you had breakfast?" Let's use some more with my mother. Prince Zhong took out an embroidered handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat on Xiao Yu's forehead, and said with a smile: "You, you jump up and down all day long, like a monkey." ”
"Mother, don't worry about Yu'er, you eat quickly, we'll go to Chang'an soon!" Xiao Yu couldn't wait, and forcibly pushed the hand of Prince Zhong who wiped his sweat back on the table, "Mother, eat quickly!" ”
Prince Zhong smiled helplessly, so she had to obey Xiao Yu's wishes, "Okay, okay, mother, let's eat." You, you really have Chang'an and forgot your mother, you have no conscience. ”
Xiao Yu pretended to be ignorant and looked ignorant, "Mother, what is 'little conscience', can you eat it?" "When there are subordinates, Xiao Yu is still the fool Xiao Yu.
Prince Zhong glared at Xiao Yu with disgust, she wanted to teach Xiao Yu a lesson, but when she raised her eyes and saw that there were maids and women all around, she had to stay silent for the time being, and said meaningfully: "Yu'er, don't worry, my mother will teach you well in a while." ”
Rong'an Hou Mansion.
As soon as Xie Changan poked his head out, he felt that the cold was pressing, and he woke up from sleep and was frozen awake for a while, and hurriedly shrank into the brocade quilt that warmed up, and shouted in a muffled voice: "Tianqing." ”
Tianqing entered in response, and without waiting for Xie Changan to speak, she said to herself: "Miss, it's snowing today, and it's cold outside, so you have to wear more clothes." Tianqing took out the clothes she had prepared early in the morning and walked to Xie Changan's bed, "Miss, it's time for you to get up, don't miss the hour when you turn back." ”
Xie Changan complained bitterly in his heart, this Xiao Yu, when is it not good, why is it so cold to make an appointment, isn't this killing her?
Xie Changan was speechless for a long time, Qingshuang saw that Xie Changan was carefully shrinking into the middle of the brocade quilt, and couldn't help but laugh, "Miss, what are you doing?" ”
Xie Changan's voice came from under the brocade quilt, "Tianqing, it's really too cold this day, you go and tell Mrs. that Miss Jin'er accidentally contracted the wind cold and can't go to the appointment." Xie Changan was honestly nestled in the brocade quilt, and there was really no sign of getting up.
"Bah, miss, you can't talk nonsense, but it works." When the words fell, Tianqing didn't know what the gods were praying for with the gods and Buddhas, and only after a while did he continue to persuade Xie Changan, "Miss, how can you escape from the battle, this is not like the young lady Qingshuang knows...... The young lady Qingshuang knows, but she is high-spirited and courageous, how can she be stumped by this little cold? ”
Xie Changan didn't say a word, for a long time, he carefully poked out the slender jade hand, but in the blink of an eye, the tentative slender jade hand immediately retracted into the quilt, Xie Changan said in a sullen voice: "This Xiao Yu really can't choose the day......" The words fell, Xie Changan violently lifted the brocade quilt, and the whole person was exposed to the not very cold air defenselessly, Xie Changan was anxious, "Qingshuang, hurry up and wait for me to change clothes, hurry up!" ”
After a period of chaos, Xie Changan was wrapped like a dumpling in the Dragon Boat Festival, round and rolling, not only three layers inside and three layers outside, from inside and outside, from top to bottom, all of them were fully armed, and the stove seemed to be sticky, never leaving his hand.
Qingshuang opened the food box, and a wave of hot air rose, with a warm aroma. Xie Chang'an's depressed eyes instantly cleared, and his slender jade hand finally left the stove, reached out to take the steaming porridge, and began to eat without saying a word.
After a bowl of hot porridge is in the stomach, the warmth hits the limbs, which is comfortable from the inside out, like the warmth of spring returning to the earth, Xie Changan sighed for a while: "It's so warm, comfortable ......"
Qingshuang looked at the satisfied Xie Changan with a smile, and opened her mouth to drink immediately, "Miss, after finishing the meal, you should go with Mrs. to incense, the hour is almost up, Mrs. Fang Cai has already sent someone to ask Miss how she is preparing." ”
Xie Chang'an suddenly felt like a mourner, his expression was sad, and he complained about Xiao Yu for a while, but he could only reluctantly get up and leave the house, not wanting to be tortured by another gust of cold wind, Xie Changan couldn't help but shrink for a while, and ordered Qingshuang in a trembling voice: "Qingshuang, put that fox fur on me." ”
The Lin family waited left and right, and it was easy to wait for Xie Chang'an, and when he saw Xie Chang'an, he couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "An'er is really still afraid of the cold, and she is afraid of a year, how is this good." Compared to Xie Chang'an's bloatedness, the Lin family looked quite thin, but he didn't shrink from the cold.
Xie Changan was depressed from his heart, and said in a muffled voice: "Mother, An'er, who is around and around this cold winter and wax moon, doesn't want to go out, so my mother shouldn't make another invitation for me, otherwise An'er can only pretend to be sick and not go to the appointment." ”
Lin couldn't cry or laugh, and he also knew that Xie Changan was afraid of the cold and had a very stubborn temperament, so he had to respond, "Okay, good, my mother won't accept the invitation again." After a pause, Lin continued: "An'er, now is not a cold winter, this first snow has just fallen, and there will be cold days in the future." ”
Hearing this, Xie Changan's brows furrowed more and more tightly, and he involuntarily tightened the fox fur on his body, and sighed, "Mother, let's go." I can't be cold, I have to endure it. ”
Finally, the Lin family took Xie Changan into the carriage, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and they gradually went west. At the same time, the carriage of Prince Zhong's Mansion also set off, and Xiao Yu's urging voice was vaguely heard, "Hurry up, let the horses run faster, Yu'er must see Chang'an soon!" ”
Xie Changan shrank quietly in the corner, relatively speechless to the Lin family.
Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Tongguang Temple, the cold was also a little worse, although it was warm in the car, but the temperature had dropped down, Xie Chang'an was wrapped more and more tightly, huddled in the corner, frowned slightly, and his beautiful eyes were spinning, as if looking for the traces of the pervasive cold wind.
Seeing that Xie Chang'an was so cold, Lin Shi felt distressed, and said gently: "An'er, when you return home, I will send some silver silk carbon to your house, if it is not enough, you can tell your mother again." ”
Xie Changan's expression was cold, and he moved his body slightly, as if he had found a more comfortable posture, and said in a light tone: "Mother, it's okay, you can hold on to some sisters first." Xie Changan didn't seem to care, his fingertips rubbed carelessly on the stove, and the warmth between them made Xie Changan's expression soften a lot.
Lin's face froze, smiled awkwardly, and said unnaturally: "What did An'er say, you and Ning'er are both mothers' daughters-in-law, which mother hurts, and which mother has to be tight." ”
Xie Changan looked at Lin with a smile, and his tone was as usual, "So there will be Mother Lao." Indifferent and detached, Xie Changan didn't know, what did Lin think when she said that she loved herself and Xie Changning in general?
"What did An'er say, we are mother and daughter, what kind of hard work is not there, isn't An'er saying this in vain?" Although the Lin family favors Xie Changning, Xie Changan is her own daughter in the end, and she is always unhappy when there is such a difference between mother and daughter.
Xie Changan didn't want to continue to be with the Lin family, just as the carriage slowly stopped, and the coachman shouted outside: "Madam, second miss, Tongguang Temple has arrived." Xie Changan went down this step and said respectfully to the Lin family: "Mother, when you arrive, An'er will go down and take a look first." At this time, Xie Changan was not afraid of the cold, and decisively got up from the warm corner, looking bloated, but in fact dexterously got out of the carriage.
Lin's eyes dimmed slightly, and he didn't say anything more, and followed Xie Changan's footsteps and got out of the carriage.
In the end, it is on the mountain, it is much colder than the mountain, and the heroic Xie Changan has been "killed" at this moment, the cold wind is enveloping, Xie Changan's body is only shivering, his teeth are so cold that he fights, his face is tense, and he has to keep walking towards the temple, trying to obtain shelter by the breath of incense.
