On a long winter night, the clear snow makes tea.

The heavy snow stopped for half a day, and then began to fall on the ground again. The ground was covered with a vast expanse of white, and the world was covered in silver.

The entire Yujing City was as cold as an ice cellar, making people shrink from the cold.

Yun Fei and Jiang Jingqiu were drinking mutton soup in a small shop in the south of the city. The mutton smell was removed by special seasonings, making it fragrant and full of aftertaste.

Yun Fei took a sip and his eyes suddenly lit up: "It tastes so good!"

Jiang Jingqiu smiled and said: "I told you, I won't lie to you. This old Zhangtou's craftsmanship is second to none in the whole capital. It's a pity that his body can't bear it. He only cooks one pot every day. If he wants to drink it, he has to make it in advance. It took me a long time to tell him.”

Yun Fei raised his eyebrows: "It seems you didn't tell me in advance, you just came in."

Jiang Jingqiu said proudly: "That's because Lao Zhangtou is my friend."

Yun Fei was very surprised: "Didn't you just come to Beijing not long ago? Why are there so many friends in this alley?"

Jiang Jingqiu remained silent for a while, then casually prevaricated: "Don't be too curious about my things, because curiosity is the beginning of liking. Be careful to fall in love with me."

There is actually no touching story between her and Lao Zhangtou, but she helped when someone wanted to steal Lao Zhangtou's secret recipe.

Yun Fei frowned: "Girl, why are you so shameless?"

Jiang Jingqiu didn't take it seriously: "I have the freedom of expression. My mouth is on my body and I can control it at will. It doesn't harm others or myself, so why not?"

Yun Fei's frown deepened: "But, you made me feel uncomfortable."

Jiang Jingqiu looked at him for a long time: "Are you the same as those secular men who use rules to restrain women? Do you also think that women should be virtuous, virtuous, dignified and generous?"

Yun Fei shook his head: "I don't know what secular men think, but I know that people should be careful in their words and deeds. Wrong words and deeds will make others uncomfortable."

Jiang Jingqiu picked up the bowl and took a big sip of the soup, and then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief: "Then you can't explain this to me, because I am a typical egoist."

Yun Fei raised his eyelids: "Egoism?"

Jiang Jingqiu nodded: "To put it bluntly, it's selfish. I only care about my own comfort. What does others have to do with me?"

Yun Fei sighed: "This mutton soup seems to be tasteless."

Jiang Jingqiu picked up a jar of wine, unsealed it, and then put it in front of him: "How can we avoid burning knives in winter? We won't return unless we get drunk tonight."

Yun Fei looked at the jar as big as his head: "Burning knives? This whole jar?"

Jiang Jingqiu laughed at him: "Why, you can't drink enough?"

Yun Fei lowered his tall eyebrows and said, "I can drink quite well. I just didn't expect you, a girl, to like mutton soup and roasting knives."

Seeing this, Jiang Jingqiu joked again: "Mutton soup and grilled knives are all liked by Northern Qi men. I brought you here to drink mutton soup and grilled knives. Haven't you ever thought that I might be deliberately trying to please you and lust after you?" Is this a bad idea?"

Yunfei ignored her and just thought she was crazy.

Jiang Jingqiu picked up the soup bowl and couldn't help laughing when she saw Yun Fei pretending to be calm. The soup in the bowl also started to bubble.

Yunfei lifted the wine jar and filled a bowl for himself.

Just as he was about to put down the wine jar, a large bowl was also handed to him.

He poured the wine in, but only less than half the bowl was filled.

Jiang Jingqiu grabbed the bowl that originally belonged to him and put it in her hand: "I'm not a wine bottle, so I won't drink like this every day. It's a rare opportunity, so I have to drink it to the fullest."

Yun Fei didn't say anything more. He was silently satisfied with himself, then picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.

The tingling sensation of strong liquor spread over the tip of his tongue and burned his throat, but he particularly enjoyed this feeling and took another big gulp.

He always felt that he should be a real Daqin person, but his experience of living in the grassland had already made him accustomed to the smell of mutton and the aroma of this strong wine.

These habits seemed to be engraved in his bones, following him like a gangrene in the bones. Now wearing a Qin suit, sitting in this small shop, drinking with the heavy snow outside the window, suddenly he seemed to be back on the grassland again. .

He was quite disgusted with this feeling, but he also knew that he couldn't get rid of it for a while.

Thinking of this, he felt depressed. He took several sips at a time until the bottom of a large bowl was reached.

It was snowing heavily outside, and several pots of charcoal were burning inside the house, which was warm and cozy.

Jiang Jingqiu was drinking and looking at the charcoal fire in trance.

She said: "Every time when there are violent storms, heavy rains and heavy snowfalls, sitting in the house drinking wine and eating tea makes me feel very warm."

"Perhaps this is the meaning of owning a home, even if it is not a palace, but a thatched cottage."

Under the influence of alcohol, Yunfei asked her: "Who are you?"

Jiang Jingqiu was also a little drunk. She pointed to her nose: "Who am I, Jiang Jingqiu!"

Yun Fei raised his lips and said, "Jiang Jingqiu has had a family since she was a child, so she would not sigh like you."

Jiang Jingqiu smiled and asked: "Where does it get boring? Don't you think so too?"

"Your identity is embarrassing. You are not completely Qin, nor completely Hu. Have you never imagined for a moment that you are just an ordinary person?"

"Whether you have wealth or not, as long as you have a small house and a few acres of thin farmland, it is enough."

Yun Fei took a sip of wine and said, "I have thought about it. Even if I have much more than that now, I have thought about it."

Jiang Jingqiu raised the wine bowl and pretended to clink glasses with Yun Fei: "This is why I brought you here. They say a thousand cups are too little for a close friend. If you and I drink this wine tonight, you will be my close friend from now on." "

Yun Fei touched the bowl with her symbolically, chuckled and said, "Friend?"

Jiang Jingqiu explained with a smile: "Yes, a confidant is someone who wears the same pants. In the future, you have to protect me when I am bullied. If I have no money to spend, you have to give me money. This is a confidant."

Yunfei asked her, "Then what can you do for me?"

Jiang Jingqiu smiled sweetly: "I can do a lot for you. For example, when others ask why a couple in their thirties are not getting married, I can help you deal with those people."

"For another example, when someone suspects that you don't like women, my appearance will help you clarify the suspicion; for example, when you need someone to drink with you, I will be on call."

Yun Fei was speechless: "So, you have taken all the benefits, and I am the one who contributed the money and effort?"

Jiang Jingqiu smiled and said: "You can't say that. You not only contributed money and effort, but also time. You have lost three birds with one stone."

Yun Fei filled up the wine bowl: "Forget it, let's finish this bowl without caring about your little girl."

Jiang Jingqiu picked up the wine bowl: "We won't go back until we get drunk!"
