After half a month of continuous snowfall, the sky finally cleared.

During this time, although Lu Jiuyuan occasionally went to the barracks, he only stayed in the camp for a while before returning home.

Most of the time, Lu Jiuyuan would accompany Tao Yao.

Sometimes, when Gu Changqing and those generals would come back with him, Tao Yao would prepare mutton hot pot and invite them to eat together.

In the past half a month, Tao Yao has lived a very happy life, but there are also fly in the ointment.

She has been in the frontier for more than a month, but she and Lu Jiuyuan are stunned that there is no round house.

It made her haunted.

Seeing that the New Year has arrived, every household has begun to prepare for the New Year, and Tao Yao can't help but pull Lu Jiuyuan out to buy New Year's goods.

This is the first year she has spent with Lu Jiuyuan, and it is of great significance to be at the border again.

After the Khitan retreated, the border city became more lively, especially when the New Year was approaching, there were more people on the street, and the vendors selling New Year's goods were also shouting very energetically.

Tao Yao pulled Lu Jiuyuan, take a look here, look there.

After shopping one day, the two bought a lot of dry goods, all of which were used for the New Year.

However, most of them are Tao Yao's purchases.

Lu Jiuyuan hadn't bought New Year's goods, and he didn't have to worry about it in previous years, so he naturally didn't know that he had to prepare so many New Year's goods.

Seeing that someone was selling Spring Festival couplets, and there were many people gathered, Tao Yao also pulled Lu Jiuyuan over.

The person who sold the Spring Festival couplets was an old man, and I saw him waving in public and writing a pair of Spring Festival couplets.

Quite a few people applauded.

Tao Yao took a look at it, and saw that the old man's handwriting was really good-looking, and when he was about to buy a pair, he was stopped by Lu Jiuyuan.

He took her out of here.

"Don't we buy a pair of Spring Festival couplets? It's going to be posted for the New Year. Tao Yao reluctantly looked back at the stall selling Spring Festival couplets.

"I can write." Lu Jiuyuan explained.

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that his handwriting was also very good.

"yes, how did I forget?"

Since Lu Jiuyuan can write, she doesn't have to worry about it.

And there is still more than half a month before the Chinese New Year.

"Do you want to go again?" Lu Jiuyuan asked.

Tao Yao shook his head, "Don't go shopping, let's go back first." ”

"Hmm."

The New Year's goods that I bought have been brought back by Wu Ze and Xi'er, so the two of them didn't have anything in their hands at this time, and they were very leisurely while walking.

When I got back to Fuchu, it was getting late.

After the two of them had dinner, Lu Jiuyuan went to the study to deal with official business, and Tao Yao hurriedly asked Xi'er to prepare hot water for bathing.

She specially washed herself fragrantly, planning to take down Lu Jiuyuan tonight.

She washed her hair, sat in front of the mirror, and watched as Xi'er wiped her hair.

After drying her hair, Xi'er poured some osmanthus oil on her hands, rubbed it for a while, and then wiped it on Tao Yao's hair.

"Miss, your hair is getting better and better."

"Isn't it thanks to you?" Tao Yao praised without hesitation.

She was telling the truth.

Her hair was long and abundant, and she really didn't have the patience to take care of it herself, but luckily she had Xi'er.

Every time she washes her hair, Xi'er has to help her apply another layer of osmanthus oil.

It can be said that her hair can be raised so well is entirely due to Xi'er.

Osmanthus oil smells fragrant and nourishes the hair.

"The main thing is that the young lady's foundation is good." Xi'er smiled.

After taking care of her hair, Tao Yao asked Xi'er to go back to the house to sleep, and she herself got into the quilt and waited for Lu Jiuyuan to come back.

thought that Lu Jiuyuan would come back soon, but she waited left and right, but she couldn't wait for him to come back, and she was lying down, and she was sleepy.

She yawned, fearing that she would fall asleep and miss out on something good, so after thinking about it, she put on a cloak and ran to the study.

Sure enough, the light was still on in the study.

When she knocked on the door and entered, Lu Jiuyuan was still sitting at the desk to deal with official business.

Seeing this, Tao Yao lost his temper a little.

"When will you be done and go back to bed?" She stood in front of the table and asked, wrinkling her eyebrows.

Lu Jiuyuan raised his head and looked at her with a frown, "Why are you here?" ”

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and if you don't come back, I'll come to look for you." Tao Yao said.

Lu Jiuyuan paused, and seeing that she was thinly dressed, he hurriedly pulled her over and let her sit on his lap.

He touched her cold little hand, and said softly: "I didn't go back, you can sleep first, come here so late, what if you catch a cold?" ”

"If you catch a cold, you catch a cold, what's the big deal?" Tao Yao snuggled into his arms and said indifferently.

Lu Jiuyuan was a little helpless, took the big puff on the side, and wrapped it around her, "You wait for me for a while, I'll go back to the house after I finish dealing with this." ”

"Okay." Tao Yao nodded and rested his head on his neck.

He didn't wear much, but it was warm and comfortable.

Unable to help it, she put her hand into the hem of his coat again to keep warm.

Lu Jiuyuan didn't blink his eyelids, and let her go.

After a while, Tao Yao was bored and was about to fall asleep, so Lu Jiuyuan finally finished dealing with it, held her waist, and stood up, "Okay, go back to the house and sleep." ”

Tao Yao nodded and followed him out of the study.

After returning to the house, Lu Jiuyuan went to freshen up first, and when he returned to the bedside, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that Tao Yao hadn't slept yet, "It's late, why don't you sleep yet?" ”

When Tao Yao heard this, his heart, which was beating wildly, suddenly quieted down.

She stared at him intently, "Of course I'm waiting for you." ”

"What are you waiting for me to do?" Lu Jiuyuan smiled, sat down on the edge of the bed, and rubbed her head.

Tao Yao: "......"

Did he really not understand, or did he pretend?

Tao Yao bit her lip, forget it, what if she took the initiative?

Thinking about it, she suddenly straddled his lap and hugged his neck and kissed him.

Lu Jiuyuan's body stiffened, but soon, he turned passive into active.

Tao Yao was panting from his kiss, and his dress didn't know when it fell apart.

When her mind was in chaos, the man patted her on the back, "Let's sleep first." ”

Tao Yao: "......"

She could now be completely convinced that he was indeed in trouble.

Otherwise, it's all at this juncture, how can he say that he will withdraw?

How do you do it so calmly?

For a while, Tao Yao's heart was extremely complicated.

Lu Jiuyuan can't do it......

It's really blind to his looks and figure.

It's useless!

didn't sleep well one night, and the next day, Tao Yao got up with two dark circles under his eyes.

Lu Jiuyuan was no longer in the house, and I heard Xi'er say that he went to the camp.

"Miss, why do you look so inenergetic?"

When combing her hair, Xi'er asked puzzled.

Tao Yao sighed, "Don't mention it......"

She barely slept last night.

"But you quarreled with Guogong?" Xi'er asked with concern.

"Nope." Tao Yao shook his head.

It's fine if it's a quarrel, but the problem is that it's not a quarrel.

Lu Jiuyuan can't do it......

"Xi'er, let me ask you something." Tao Yao suddenly said with a straight face.

Seeing her posture, Xi'er was a little scared, and stammered, "What, what's the matter, Miss?" ”
