It was almost noon, and Yin Ding, who was walking at the front, came to report that there was a small valley ahead, with the wind and snow behind him, and a cave where he could rest.

Huo Changhe gave the order and the team went to rest in the small valley ahead.

Everyone gathered in one place, lively, setting a hot pot, preparing for lunch.

Along the way, we have already become accustomed to division of labor, cooperation, and common advancement and retreat.

The children also got together to play in the snow. No one had been here before, and the snow was white and clean. Huo Changheng rolled the snowball, and Huo Qinxiang built a snowman.

This was Brother Rui's first time seeing snow, and it was so novel. As soon as he walked into the snow, his two little feet in boots were no longer visible, and his eyes widened in shock.

Carefully quit, and ran to find Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu had made milk tea and was hanging it to dry, hoping to wait until they had enough fun to drink it.

He lowered his head and saw Rui Geer running in. He leaned over to support him: "What's wrong?"

Rui Geer's eyes widened and he said for a long time: "Big, so big~"

"You mean, it's snowing really hard, right?" Yan Ruyu asked with a smile.

Rui Geer nodded repeatedly.

"How big is it?" Yan Ruyu deliberately teased him.

Rui Ge lowered his little head and looked at his little boots. After thinking about it, he put his little hands on his knees and said, "So big."

Yan Ruyu laughed so hard that she hugged him hard: "So it turns out Brother Rui has never seen it so big, right?"

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll take you to play."

Yan Ruyu took him outside into the snow, one big and one small, and they stepped into the snow together. Rui Geer's face was filled with surprise, and snow fell from time to time on his face. His expression was rich and changeable, as if he was very busy.

Huo Changhe was laying a small mat on the stone for the eldest lady. When he heard the children's laughter, he turned around and saw Yan Ruyu playing with them.

The eldest lady's eyebrows were curved: "When I first met Ruyu, I thought she was cold and scary. She was not a girl at all. She was clearly an unsheathed sword. Thanks to her being a sword, Only then can people like us be protected from hunger and cold, and be harmonious and beautiful until today."

"Now she has restrained her sharpness, she is as soft as water, and as warm as fire. Oh, it makes people feel so comfortable."

As the eldest lady said this, her eyes could not help but turn red: "Such a good girl, our family is truly blessed in the past life. With the blessings of our ancestors, Ruyu came to our home."

Huo Changhe nodded: "Mother is absolutely right. My son will definitely treat Ruyu well."

"Of course," the eldest lady said firmly, "If you dare to treat Ruyu badly, I will not agree to it."

The eldest lady did not say how to refuse, but the briefest words are often the most decisive and the most deterrent.

Just as Huo Changhe was about to express his position, the eldest lady changed the topic and said, "Can't you try harder and give birth to a child as soon as possible? Look at how well Ruyu brought up Brother Rui. Everyone was afraid of that child at the beginning. How wonderful it is now, look at kissing her."

Huo Changhe: "..."

"I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"

"I heard about this..."

"This matter is the top priority. Ruyu's wedding and the right to run the family must be implemented after arriving in the northwest. The child is equally important. It's almost here. I'm pregnant during this period. I'll take a good rest in the northwest. I I have not worried about her along the way, I feel really ashamed, I will be able to take good care of her when the time comes."

"And you, look at how good you look along the way. Don't let Ruyu worry about all the troubles in the local area, settling down, negotiating with the government, buying a house, etc., marrying a man to a man, dressing and eating. , you can’t be lazy anymore.”

"..."

Huo Changxu came in with the inkstone in his arms, wanting to keep it warm here so that it could be used later.

As soon as he entered the cave, he saw his mother's angry face and the sudden light in his eldest brother's eyes.

Huo Changxu subconsciously stopped and turned to leave.

Huo Changhe said quickly: "Mother, Changxu is here."

When the eldest lady saw him, she said displeasedly: "And you, you know that those things holding inkstones and ink blocks can be used as a wife? Can they give you children?"

Huo Changxu: "..."

Huo Changhe took the opportunity to sneak away quickly.

Yan Ruyu took out a small red fruit from the space and gave the snowman a red nose. The three little ones were very happy.

Seeing Huo Changhe approaching, they all came to pull him and offer treasures to him.

Lunch was ready over there, and the two adults and three children went over to drink milk tea and have lunch.

It got dark early and the road was not easy to walk. Yan Ruyu decided to take a rest after eating and set off as soon as possible. The map showed that there was an inn ahead, so she tried to get there at night.

Otherwise, in such a cold and snowy day, even if you have a carriage, sleeping outdoors at night will be a pain.

As soon as I finished packing, I turned around and saw Brother Rui going to see the snowman again, looking reluctant to leave.

Yan Ruyu went over to hug him: "It's okay, let's pile it up later, okay?"

Rui Ge suddenly blinked and asked, "Is it the same?"

"It's the same, the exact same one will do, or the more beautiful one will do."

"Are you lonely?"

Yan Ruyu's heart stagnated slightly, she looked at his young face, thought for a while and said: "No, look at so many snowflakes, they are all its good friends, they all surround it and fall on it, it won't be alone. .”

Hearing this, Brother Rui was relieved.

Just as Yan Ruyu arrived in front of the carriage, the sound of horse hooves came from the entrance of the valley.

Everyone turned to look and saw two more carriages coming into the valley. The one in front happened to be parked at the entrance of the valley, occupying half of the space. If they wanted to get out, they had to wait for this carriage to come in.

The car curtain opened, and a little girl's head emerged.

She is taller than Rui Ge, very fat, her face looks a bit small when her eyes are squeezed, and she is wearing a brocade cloak and a big fur collar.

"Why are there so many people?" When he spoke, it was a child's voice, but it was full of disgust and pride.

Everyone walked along and saw everything. No one said anything, and everyone who could get in the car got in.

Seeing that no one was paying attention, the little girl hummed: "Ask you, where did you come from? Isn't there anyone who can talk?"

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly, but she couldn't bear to argue with a naughty kid.

There were several coughs in the car, and a soft voice said: "Luo'er, don't talk nonsense, come in and sit down."

The little girl curled her lips and said, "Huh, where am I talking nonsense? This valley belongs to our family, and they came here uninvited. Can't I even ask?"

Yan Ruyu was surprised, this valley actually has an owner? If that's the case, they're being reckless.

Yin Ding said from the front: "Does this valley belong to your family? May I ask, which family do you belong to? When I came in just now, I didn't see any notice of the owner's family at the entrance of the valley."

Yin Ingot also asked in a normal tone. He found the place. If it caused trouble, he also had the obligation to ask clearly.

The little girl slapped her cloak and pointed at the silver ingot with her fat finger: "You dare to question me?"

Yin Ding usually plays with the three little ones, who are not smart, cute and well-behaved. When have you ever met such a little one?

Yin Ding chuckled softly: "Which family are you from? Can't you tell me? Or do you mean that adults can't speak anymore?"

The coughing started again, and he stopped the little girl and said: "Luo'er, please speak up."
