Xu Yuan's first family banquet after coming to Xu's mansion passed gently and calmly, except for her own belly and a little uncomfortable, everything was fine.

After the banquet was over, Xu Yuan rejected the old lady's idea of sending someone to escort her, and was planning to go back to her corner of the courtyard to continue to nest.

Before she could pull her legs, Du Jingqing's voice came from behind her: "Sister Yuan, wait for me-"

Xu Yuan looked back and saw that Du Jingqing was lifting the corners of her skirt, taking three steps and making two steps towards her.

Xu Yuan asked, "Sister Qinqing, but is there something wrong?" Xu Yuan has already accepted to casually put this title on her lips, which seems to be extremely numb, and follow the customs.

Du Jingqing stood beside Xu Yuan and said with a smile: "What's the matter, it's just that I want to get along with my sister more and want to accompany you back to the yard." ”

Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and said puzzledly: "My small courtyard is not far from here, isn't your courtyard in the other direction, Sister Qinqing?" ”

Du Jingqing said: "I just want to go to my sister's yard to sit, is my sister willing?" ”

After the banquet was over, Xu Yuan was left by the old lady to speak for a while, and Du Jingqing was still waiting here, presumably waiting for her in the cold wind for a long time.

This is really impossible to refuse, Xu Yuan thought that it was okay to go back to the house, there was nothing unwilling, so he nodded and left with Du Jingqing.

Du Jingqing took the umbrella in Shuang'er's hand, and naturally propped it up for himself and Xu Yuan, with the two maids accompanying him.

Xu Yuan hurriedly said: "I'm tired of my sister." ”

Du Jingqing smiled: "What is it to talk about bothering or not bothering." I'm taller than you, so I should hold an umbrella. ”

There was a heavy snow in the sky, and a thick layer of snow on the ground. The mother-in-law and the little maids in the courtyard couldn't shovel the snow, and the snow was so heavy that the speed of shoveling was not as fast as the snow accumulated.

Xu Yuan walked in the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, a little staggering, and walked out a long list of footprints behind him. Fortunately, he wore a pair of small leather boots, which were lined with a thick layer of rabbit plush, and Xu Yuan was not too difficult to walk.

After a few steps on the snowy road, you will pass through a corridor. Du Jingqing put away the umbrella and reminded: "Sister be careful, there are steps here." ”

When Xu Yuan heard this, she let out a "belch", lifted the skirt in front of her, and cautiously stepped up the steps.

The floor on the corridor is paved with green bricks, and it looks like the atmosphere in the past, but it looks very slippery in this rainy and snowy weather - it's not that the people are lazy and don't mop the ground, but that people just walk in from the snow, and they will naturally melt the snow on the green bricks in the corridor.

In a moment, the two of them passed through a short corridor, and it seemed that in just a moment, the snow fell heavily, and the snowflakes that fell one after another almost formed a white curtain, sweeping the heavens and the earth.

It was time to go down the steps, Xu Yuan cautiously poked his feet. The snow had already buried half a staircase in it.

However, this caution became useless, when Xu Yuan went down the last step, her left foot stepped on the steps, and her right foot just stepped into the snow that looked into it, and this small piece of land was caught off guard and sunken down, and even her body was crooked, and she was about to fall to the other side when she was sick and weak.

Fortunately, Xu Yuan didn't fall down directly, and Du Jingqing grabbed her. It's just that the snow is soft and slippery, and neither of them can maintain their balance. Xu Yuan fell straight on half of Du Jingqing's body, and the two fell into the snow together.

The two masters were walking and chatting in front of them, and the maids naturally didn't want to get too close, so they only followed behind a few steps. At this time, the situation was sudden, and both Shuang'er and Shuqing couldn't react.

Shuqing's face turned white with a "brush", and he rushed over with an arrow to help Xu Yuan up.

Xu Yuan quickly moved away from Du Jingqing's arm with her own hands, this fall made her a little confused, it was obviously a good piece of snow, how could it be empty when she stepped on it?

However, she didn't have time to think about it now, so she was busy with Shuang'er to shake it up, and said, "Sister Qinqing, I'm sorry, it's me who is not good, and I am tired of you." ”

Du Jingqing smiled reluctantly and said, "It's nothing, it's because I didn't take good care of my sister, so my sister slipped and fell." As soon as Shuang'er was about to help Du Jingqing's arm, she covered her arm and said, "Don't move my hand...... Something seems to be wrong......"

A few maids and wives on duty not far from here, when they heard the movement, they all rushed over like a smoke, and carried Xu Yuan and Du Jingqing back to the corridor, and they were about to hurriedly call people.

Xu Yuan didn't fall hard, but her head was a little dizzy, she stopped a few mothers-in-law, and said calmly: "Come and two people to help Miss Du in my yard, my yard is the closest." The others went to call the house doctor to come to my yard, and then went to inform the old lady personally. ”

The people below responded one after another.

Du Jingqing frowned, she could barely stand up, she was carried back by several mothers-in-law, and it seemed that she was injured more than her hands.

Seeing Du Jingqing like this, Xu Yuan felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart, and said, "Sister Qinqing, if it weren't for you, I would be the one who fell now...... Thank you. ”

Du Jingqing smiled with a pale face: "I didn't think about it so much, I just subconsciously helped it." There's nothing to thank, and besides, I'm not just for you, if I hadn't helped you, and it was you who fell, the old lady would definitely blame me for not taking good care of you, which was much worse than my injury. ”

These words are so true that they poke people's hearts, but Du Jingqing said it so calmly. Xu Yuan's eyes were sour, and she comforted: "Okay, okay, Sister Qinqing, don't think about it first, and wait for the government doctor to come to diagnose and treat it later, and it will be fine." ”

When Shuang'er heard this, his expression was a little terrible, and his tears couldn't stop falling, and the tears froze on his face in the middle of winter, and he didn't fall, which looked a little ridiculous.

Shuqing hurriedly took a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped away the tears for Shuang'er, and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't cry, your master still wants you to serve you well." ”

A group of people rushed into the courtyard in this way.
