The weather in October is already very cold in the morning and evening, especially the further you go in the direction of the exit, the colder it becomes.

It was already December as we approached the border pass, and Tianxiang ushered in the first heavy snowfall.

On such a snowy day, it was impossible to travel, and many travelers were trapped in the inn.

The warm jade sent by Situ Xuan stayed in the snow country, and without the warm jade to protect his body, Ding Guoguo's already weak body couldn't resist such a severe cold at all, and he fell ill in the inn.

"It's so cold, what are you doing when you get up?"

Ding Ning brought the food and entered the door, and saw her sitting on the bed and getting dressed, and he hurriedly dissuaded her.

"It's not a problem to lie down all the time."

Ding Guoguo lifted the quilt and got out of bed, walked to the table and sat down.

Seeing that she looked good today and was in much better spirits than yesterday, Ding Ning let her go. He placed the tray in his hand on the table and handed her a pair of chopsticks.

Ding Guoguo took the chopsticks and said with a smile, "Let me try it and see how our chef Ding's skills are today." ”

"You're poor!" Ding Ning smiled and pushed the medicine bowl in front of her, "Drink the medicine first and then eat." ”

Ding Guoguo wrinkled his nose a little reluctantly, picked up the medicine bowl and drank all the medicine in one go.

"Alas, I didn't think that my Divine Doctor Ding would also have medicine in his mouth on this day." She sighed, shaking her head in jest.

Ding Ning couldn't help her, so he shook his head with a smile.

"Let's eat, it'll be cold in a while." He filled a bowl of rice and put it in her hand.

Ding Guoguo grinned, first took a piece of meat and chewed it in his mouth before going to serve the rice bowl.

After eating, while Ding Ning was putting away the dishes and chopsticks and going to the kitchen of the inn, Ding Guoguo sneaked out of the room.

Ding Ning watched very closely, and usually gave her a chance to come out to breathe at all except for the gap in the toilet. It was snowing today, and she wanted to take a look outside.

In the hall, there were two and three tourists drinking in pairs, and the table near the window was particularly interested, and they were chanting poems in front of the snowflakes floating outside the window.

It's cold!

Ding Guoguo rubbed his hands, tightened the fur cloak on his body, went downstairs, walked quickly to the door of the inn, and stood by the door looking outside.

The sky and the earth are silvery white, fine snowflakes dance in the wind, and the air has a cold fragrance of plum blossoms. She noticed a plum tree planted in front of a shop opposite, and the plum blossoms on its branches were blooming in the wind and snow.

She put on the hat on her cloak and was about to ask the shopkeeper for a plum blossom on the other side, so that she could come back and insert it in the room, when she heard a horse bell.

Is there anyone still in a hurry in this weather?

She followed the prestige, and a team of people and horses could be seen faintly in the heavy snow, moving towards her.

"Kuroko!" She hurriedly turned her head to call Xiao Er.

"Hey, why are you standing here, Miss Ding?" The shopkeeper, who had been busy, heard her shout, and only then did he notice that the person standing at the door was her. He smiled and complained, "I'll let Ding Gongzi see it in a while, and if you don't have it, you'll scold me again." ”

Ding Guoguo and Ding Ning have been living in this store for many days, and they are very familiar with the people in the store, so they have no scruples about talking to each other. She didn't answer, just smiled and beckoned him to come over.

"What?" Although the shopkeeper asked, he still walked over.

"Business is here!" Ding Guoguo pointed to the caravan that was already very close.

"You'd better get in quickly." The shopkeeper reminded her with a smile and went out.

Ding Guoguo saw him run to the front of the carriage convoy, grabbed the reins of the charioteer, and asked with a raised face if they wanted to stay in the hotel. She smiled, walked out of the inn door, and walked to the opposite shop.

On the opposite side was a jade seller, and the proprietress saw her from a distance and greeted her. Hearing that she wanted plum blossoms, she hurriedly asked the guy in the store to get scissors, and cut two flowers for her that would not bloom, and she could put them for two more days.

When she came back with the plum branch in her arms, it happened that the members of the horse team had dismounted and were walking towards the inn in turn. She hurriedly stood aside, waiting for them to enter.

One of the men wearing a hat caught her attention.

On such a cold day, the man was only wearing a single coat, a ferret fur cloak loosely draped over his shoulders, and the collar and straps were not tied.

Isn't he cold? She couldn't help but shudder, she looked at him and felt cold...

"Master!"

Ding Ning walked through the group and ran out of the inn. He ran to her and reproached angrily, "Your health is not good, what are you running around!" ”

"You smell it, it's very fragrant." Seeing his thin anger, Ding Guoguo hurriedly sent the plum branch in his arms under his nose, trying to divert his attention.

Ding Ning was really fooled. He sniffed it, nodded and said, "Well, it's very fragrant." ”

After nodding, he remembered that he had been interrupted, and he straightened his face again, and was about to count it again, "Don't you think... ”

Suddenly, the man who was about to pass them through the door stopped, he turned around, stretched out his hand and took the hat Ding Guoguo was wearing on his head.

"What do you want to do..." Ding Ning was suddenly angry and was about to get angry, but when he saw the face of the person who had already taken off the hat on his head, he was stunned.

The man pulled away the stunned Ding Ning, walked up to Ding Guoguo, and called softly, "Ling'er... ”

"Situ Xuan!" Looking at the person in front of him, Ding Guoguo said in surprise, "Why are you here!" ”

Situ Xuan smiled slightly, "I'm here to pick you up." ”

He, did he really come to pick her up? But...

Ding Guoguo had mixed feelings in her heart for a while, she was very happy to see him here, but after listening to his words, she was both happy and sad in her heart, and she didn't know what to do.

Seeing that her expression was mixed, she didn't answer, just looked at him, Situ Xuan smiled and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Aren't you happy to see me? ”

Ding Guoguo hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course I'm happy, it's just... ”

"Just what?" Situ Xuan asked.

But Ding Guoguo didn't speak again, she hid the smile on her lips and looked down at the plum blossoms in her arms.

"Don't stand here and talk about it, you're about to become a snowman!" Langka interjected at the right time.

"Let's go inside." Situ Xuan reached out and took the plum blossom in her arms and handed it to Langka, while he took her cold hand and led her into the inn.

His large, warm hand wrapped around her cold fingertips, passing the warmth that belonged to him.

It would be nice if we could hold his hand and keep going like this.

Looking at his side face, Ding Guoguo thought vaguely in his heart.

Situ Xuan seemed to feel her gaze, he turned his face and smiled softly at her.

Ding Guoguo also responded with a smile in return.

No one noticed that there were two people standing in the snow across the street.

"They look right."

The man in a silver-white fox fur said with a wry smile.

The man in black who helped him with the umbrella sighed very low and persuaded, "Master, it's going to be dark soon, so let's go back first." ”

The man who was called the master shook his head slowly, and said stubbornly, "No, I want to stay here." ”

The black-clad guard stopped talking, and turned his face to look at the other side with him.
