Early in the morning, Guan Jiyu's door rang, and when he opened the door, there was no one outside the house, only to see a tray on the ground at the door, and on the tray was a soup can.

She looked around suspiciously, making sure that there was no one else outside, so she had to bring the soup can into the room.

Lift the lid and the fragrance fills the air. It is clear chicken soup.

Guan Jiyu picked up the spoon and tasted it, with joy on his face. These days, she is unwell, and she has been taking medicine for several days in a row, and she has no appetite at all.

She didn't think much about the food in the canteen, this can of clear chicken soup came at the right time! She unconsciously took a few more sips.

Guan Jiyu was drinking soup when she heard someone outside calling her: "Is Miss Guan in the house?" ”

When I opened the door, the people standing outside looked familiar, and after looking closely, I recognized that the person outside the house was Xiang Lincheng's attendant.

"Miss Guan, the second son is waiting for you in the pavilion in the back mountain." The attendant said respectfully.

"Back Mountain?" Guan Jiyu asked suspiciously: "Isn't it explicitly forbidden in the camp for the protégés of the family who participated in the selection to leave the camp gate?" If you just say that, how can I just listen to you go out the door? ”

When the attendant saw that she didn't believe her, as if he had expected it, he smiled and took out something from his bosom and showed it to her.

It is a waist card for the city.

The cloud wolf emblem waist plate that I heard was only available to a few high-ranking generals in the Xiang military camp.

Guan Jiyu believed it, went back to the house and took a thick coat to put on, and left with the attendant.

Going to the back mountain did not come out of the gate as she had imagined, and the attendant led her all the way from the back of the training ground, through a small wood, with a gravel path covered with thick snow.

"Girl, there is the Houshan Pavilion in front, you can see the second son in the past." After the attendant finished speaking, he retired and returned.

Guan Jiyu had to walk along this snow road alone, and after walking less than a few hundred steps, he saw the back mountain pavilion that the attendant said.

As far as the eye can see, the back mountain is all snow-white, and you can't hear a few bird calls for half a day, and this small pavilion is even more independent. In the pavilion, Xiang Lincheng was wearing a dark thick coat, and from a distance, it looked like an ink spot dripping from Zhang Baixuan.

It's like a person in a painting.

"Second son Xiang." She whispered and walked forward slowly.

The heavy snow covered the steps tightly, and even though Guan Jiyu walked carefully, he still accidentally stepped on a stone.

At the moment, the soles of her feet slipped, and before she could exclaim, the people in the pavilion were already fast-eyed, and they stepped over in two or three steps to support her steadily.

It was freezing outside, and the tip of her nose was already red, and her hands and feet were cold.

The hands that held her were so warm that she couldn't help but shudder the moment they touched her skin. He waited for her to stand still and then let go and walked back to the pavilion, Guan Jiyu straightened his clothes, and hurriedly strode on it.

Inside the pavilion was a small stove, on which sat a pot of water that had been boiled, and the lid of the pot creaked against the top of the boiling water. Xiang Lincheng took down the pot and poured hot water into the teapot on the stone table beside him.

The tea leaves should have been placed in the teapot in advance, and when the hot water was poured in, the fragrance of the tea was aroused, and Guan Jiyu could smell it when he stood a few steps away from the small stone table.

She saw that the two stone benches in the pavilion were covered with cotton mats, and she knew that he must have made them.

"Have you ever heard of Eyuki sencha?" He fiddled with what he was holding, not forgetting to look up at her.

Guan Jiyu shook her head, she only grew up in Beixin when she was a child, and she has been running around for life since she can remember, without a father, a mother and no support, just because she knows some kung fu to seek an errand in a big family.

How could such an elegant thing as tea tasting be accessible to a layman like her?

Xiang Lincheng poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, "How about tasting it first." ”

Guan Jiyu stepped forward and took it unceremoniously, took a sip, smacked his lips and said, "I don't taste anything special, it's just that my body warms up after drinking." ”

He laughed out loud at her words, shook his head again, poured himself a glass, and handed it to his lips.

Guan Jiyu didn't know what he was laughing at, and he didn't know what to say, so he had to pick up the teacup and continue drinking. After two or three bites, the whole body was completely warmed up.

She remembered the cup of chicken soup she received in the morning, her heart warmed, and she said, "I still want to thank you, Second Son, I am the one who caused you trouble, and you always take care of me." ”

"What? Every time you see me, you just say thank you? He smiled again, and said indifferently: "No one has come here all this time, in fact, I have already discovered this place, but I have never been able to find someone to drink tea with." ”

"That'...... Why did you call me? ”

Guan Jiyu asked himself if he was not a person who knew how to enjoy the snow and the snow, if he wanted to enjoy the snow and taste tea, it would be better to call Jiang Yingnian over.

That's what he loves the most.

"I don't know." Xiang Lincheng stood by the pavilion railing and looked out, leaving only her a back, he said: "Last night there was a night of wind and snow, the snow scene in the back mountain must be good, this morning I want to invite you to taste this tea." You're almost in good health, and it's not necessarily a good thing to stay in the house all the time. ”

"The wind and snow in the pavilion fence are cowardly and blue."

The snow was shining, his back was quiet and warm, and his voice was gentle.

She was puzzled and asked, "What do these two sentences mean?" ”

He looked back and said, "It's just a casual remark." As soon as these storms and snowstorms have passed, it will soon be a new year, does it mean that all the old things should be put aside? ”

Guan Jiyu thought for a moment and said, "Some things, no matter how far away they are in the past, can't they be said to be put down, right?" There are many things that can live in a person's heart, but there are some things that cannot be forgotten for a lifetime. ”

Xiang Lincheng was silent for a moment, his voice was much quieter, and he sighed softly: "In your life, have you ever made a mistake?" ”

This question hit her heart straight to the bottom, and it would take her a long time to answer.

"Actually, all the while, I was confused. I don't know where I started wrong and always got some lesson in the moment when I thought everything was starting to be hopeful. Guan Jiyu slowly got up and walked to his side, standing side by side with him, facing the snow outside. I'm used to living a hard life, and I thought that my life would be better after I arrived in Jiangfu, but fate really plays tricks on people, and the unfair God has taken away my most important person. The death of the eldest prince made me have no nostalgia for this world at all. ”

Xiang Lincheng didn't expect her to say such heavy words, he turned his head to look at her with a slight surprise, and said, "But aren't you here?" Didn't you come here just to enter the barracks? ”

She understood the implication of his words, Xiang Lincheng's surprise was that she was so dedicated to the assessment and tried her best to enter the Xiang military camp, why would she say such loveless words for no reason?

"The Northern Lone Army, isn't our army at war with the Northern Lone Country?" Guan Jiyu said firmly: "The eldest prince was killed by the Lone Wanderer soldiers at the border!" Now I just want to join the Xiang military camp so that I can be qualified to go into battle and kill the enemy. I don't want anything, I just want to avenge the eldest prince, like this...... I'll die without regrets. ”

"Have you ever thought that in fact, your life does not belong only to the head of the Jiang family?" Xiang Lincheng turned to face her, put his hands on her shoulders, and said earnestly: "I don't know about your past, but I must say that you are a very rare martial arts master, this is your superiority, you really don't have to look down on your life." You still have a long way to go in your life, and you're still too young to think that if you lose an important person, you lose everything. ”

His expression was sincere and determined, and he said, "Isn't it better to live well and live more worthwhile for the sake of your most important person?" ”

After Guan Jiyu heard this, her eyes couldn't help but heat up, she has lived for more than ten years, except for Jiang Qing, no one has ever said such a thing to her.

She would not have thought that such a person she had only known for a short time, General Shuoyuan, who was born in the Beixinxiang military camp, would deign to invite her to enjoy the snow and tea together, and would say so many things to her in a serious manner.

He told her to live well.

In this world, in the end, people have to live well for themselves.

The snow falls on the world, only in the quiet place of the back mountain, a small pavilion, and the tea under the pavilion is warm.

The horn of the camp was heard in the distance, and Guan Jiyu saw that it was already lunchtime. She took a deep breath and said, "Second son, I have written down your words, I ...... I will work hard, and I will always remember what you told me. ”

The snow that had just stopped gradually drifted again, and Guan Jiyu leaned over a handful of snow, held a snowball in his hand, and threw it into the distance.

This childish behavior also brought Xiang Lincheng's playfulness, and he simply picked up a ball of snow without caring about it, rolled a big snowball, and threw it out like her.

She smiled and turned to him, "I will not disappoint your expectations." ”

The two of them packed up their tea sets and walked slowly back along the path.

"There are so many trees here, and if it's spring and March, it's going to be a big draw for people to see."

Guan Jiyu looked at the trees on the side of the road as he walked, and said, "I don't know if there are flowers here." ”

Xiang Lincheng noticed her gaze and replied warmly: "If nothing else, I'm afraid that as soon as you say goodbye to this camp, you will all go to the border to fight." If you return from victory, you must come to the capital to find me, there are many flowers planted in my yard. Not only in my yard, there is a sea of flowers on the outskirts of Beijing, which is very beautiful, and I will take you to see it when you arrive in the capital. ”

"Beijing?" Guan Jiyu was surprised: "Aren't you from Beixin?" ”

He just mentioned lightly: "In the past, after the victory of Emperor Shu, I was not often there, and I only stayed there occasionally." ”

"That's amazing." Guan Jiyu sighed with emotion: "That must be a great feat, right?" I never dreamed of a house in the capital, if only one day I could live in the capital! ”

Sensing that Xiang Lincheng was looking at her, she hurriedly silenced. She didn't expect to open the conversation box at once, how could she say everything!

He didn't mind, and said with a smile: "This is not a difficult thing, with your ability, as long as you perform well in the army, if you have made war achievements, you will have any kind of reward you want." ”

After a while, he walked back to the camp, and when he was leaving, Xiang Lincheng advised: "You still have to eat more, and when you are full, you will have strength, and it will be the last assessment soon." ”

Guan Jiyu clenched his fists, said thank you and was about to go back to the room, but his voice sounded behind him:

"Miss Guan, no matter when, don't give up on yourself! You have to remember that the flowers in the capital are really beautiful, and you must come to the capital to see it with your own eyes. ”

She looked back and smiled, and moved on.

Guan Jiyu suddenly found that the sound of stepping on the snow under her feet had also become pleasant, and although she was facing away from him, her little face was already full of smiles.
