"Niannian, come to my house for the New Year!"

She answered the phone at home alone, had no money to pay the heating bill, and the winter in the imperial capital was extremely cold, so she could only sit alone in front of the window and give herself quick-frozen dumplings to eat.

"Come on, there are many people in my family, they want to see you......"

Gu Wei wanted to be so excited over there, it sounded very lively, and shouted to her, "Come on, Niannian, aunt can't accompany you this year, I'll accompany you for the New Year......"

I'll be with you for the New Year!

That day, his words were deeply imprinted in her heart.

So without hesitation, she went.

It was too cold at her house, and it was so cold on the road, but when she arrived at the door of Gu's house, everything was not cold......

Gu's family is big, divided into the front court and backyard, she came to the backyard, she didn't dare to go to the front door, just stayed in front of the door, and was embarrassed to knock, standing in the snow, rubbing her hands, nervously waiting for Gu Wei to think......

She made a few phone calls, but Gu Wei didn't hear it, maybe ...... Is too lively, accidentally forgot, or neglected the phone.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and she was getting colder and colder, so she jumped up in the snow to keep warm.

At that time, I was still young, and it was inevitable that I had a childlike heart, and when I jumped, I stepped on a heart in the snow...... In the middle, he stepped on his own name and entertained himself...... It's a pity that the snow has covered the footprints, and Gu Weixiang still didn't think of her......

She stood for about half an hour, and then she was a little lost, listening to the increasingly lively sounds in the door, looking at the layers of snow covered under her feet, she turned her head, did not dare to wait any longer, and prepared to go home alone......

At that time, she felt that the existence of the Gu family was not something that she could enter casually and bother on such an important day as the New Year...... So, I wasn't received, and I didn't complain, but I was a little disappointed.

Just when he was lonely and disappointed, he turned his head and left, the door ...... Suddenly it opened.

There was light shining through her face.

The lights are colorful, so it's not lively.

A scene of light, a scene of cold snow.

Standing on the ground, two worlds.

From that world, a pair of hands poked out......

Warm, feminine, beautiful and elegant without a trace of fine lines.

"Nian Nian...... Just now the housekeeper said that he saw someone at the back door, I still don't believe it, why are you ......?"

opened it, Aunt Gu walked out with an umbrella, wearing a not too heavy clothes, but she covered her coat and replied with a reproachful face, "You kid, why don't you knock on the door or shout?" I just want to say it, I invited you for the New Year, there was a lot of noise inside, the phone couldn't be heard, the back door was not locked, and it didn't hurt if you came in directly......"

As he spoke, he patted the snow off her body and asked her sideways, "Is it cold?" Hurry up and go in with your aunt......"

Aunt Gu was gentle by nature, with a southern accent, and she had always spoken gently and gently, but at this moment, she was obviously anxious, pulled Tang Xiaonian, and walked in.

Tang Xiaonian was a little panicked, and before he could explain, he was taken into the crowd in a shrunken manner, and heard Aunt Gu shouting, "Just think!" Just think! Come here! Don't play with your cousins, and don't look who's coming......"

Gu Wei thought for a moment, raised his head, was surprised when he saw her, raised his hand to call her, and ran over.

At that time, they were still young, but he was early and elegant, and he was the most dazzling in the crowd.

There were fireworks above his head, and his face was extremely happy, and his eyes were extremely bright.

When Tang Xiaonian saw it, he called him out, saying that he would not disturb?

"What's the bother, I asked you to call you over", Aunt Gu answered, "This child is really used to preferential treatment since he was a child, and he really waited at home after making the call...... I don't have the heart to pick you up...... It's hard to walk in the snow, and I see that your boots are wet......"

"Nope! It's okay! ”

Tang Xiaonian shrank, stepped back, lowered his head and said, "It's okay, I haven't been gone for long......"

She came in a hurry, and she didn't change her new clothes, or she didn't buy new clothes at all, and even the down sleeves were a little worn and mottled, and even her shoes were dirty, and she looked like the entire palatial Gu family...... In the wrong box.

"Why don't you wear the shoes and clothes you bought, Niannian? Then what use will I buy you! Gu Wei wanted to blame a little, looked at her and said, "The new clothes are also warm, you always wear these, how can it be like a New Year's ......"

Tang Xiaonian smiled silently, but said in his heart...... It's not that you don't wear it, but you don't want to, let yourself ...... It's too much like receiving alms.

"Okay, hurry up and take Niannian to the house to warm up", Aunt Gu said, "My nose is frozen red, take Niannian to drink some hot tea, and come to eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner later." ”

Gu Weixiang took her to his tea room, made her tea, handed it to her, and warmed her up.

Tang Xiaonian drank it a little better, and sat in the tea room, a little cramped, because it was the first time she didn't wait in front of the door and walked into the house of her good friend and classmate Gu Weixiang...... His house was very large, a tea room, almost bigger than her entire home.

"This is Huaguo Qimen black tea, this is the ancient tea that the villagers of Laobanzhang follow the traditional ancient method of artificial maintenance, this is Biluochun, they all say that the taste of tea is fragrant and drunk, and my father specially collected it", Gu Wei wanted to watch her drink tea, introduced her, looked at it and asked, "It's the first one for you to drink, I don't know if you like the taste, and does my uncle like tea?" I'll give it to you, look at him in the future, this time, you can bring it to him, and no one dares to say anything about you......"

"No need", shaking his head, Tang Xiaonian was direct, "Mother is gone, I don't need to go back with her a few times a year like before!" Brother Yu doesn't drink much tea, I'm about, I'll only go to see him after a year. ”

Gu Wei wanted to know that she didn't like the Su family, but she couldn't help but persuade, "I know you are disgusted with Uncle Su's later remarriage, but hasn't he been repairing his relationship with you recently?" I see that Uncle Su treats you well, and even the last time I saw me, I mainly brought you back to Su's house, so you can actually be more relaxed, why don't you think about it......"

"Don't think about it!"

She interrupted directly, shook her head, and didn't say much, because Gu Weixiang didn't know how many bad feelings and grievances the Su family had, so she asked, "Do uncles and grandfathers know?" Is it really not bothering? ”

"Don't worry, you won't see them!"

Gu Weixiang smiled and shook his head, "The royal family is also going to celebrate the New Year, and my father and grandfather are going to attend their New Year's banquet, and they won't be back until about twelve o'clock!" ”

Tang Xiaonian put her heart at ease, because she was afraid of that Grandpa Gu, she was too upright and strict, and never said a word to anyone, Uncle Gu was better, and occasionally met and greeted her, but for some reason, he always looked at her eyes, guarded and isolated, and did not want her to get close.

That feeling, from the first glance, until later, did not go away.

But that day, the memories given to her were too clear, and many of them were not from Gu Weixiang, but from Aunt Gu.

I remember that after drinking tea, not long after, Gu Weixiang was called away by many visitors, he had too many etiquettes to do, after all, the family was prominent, the family was big, and he was the only eldest son.

Aunt Gu took her and did a lot of things she hadn't done.
