The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

A few days ago.

Gu Mingheng no longer went to the military camp.

It was still snowing in Kyoto, and all I could see was a vast expanse of grey. The wind blew the white snow down from the sky like catkins.

Covering Kyoto like a snowy city.

There was still a lot of snow on the ground, and if you stepped on it, it would reach your calves.

Mingjin likes snow.

When you are in the south, you rarely see such heavy snow.

Even if it snowed occasionally, it would only be a thin layer on the ground, and then melt into water after a while. Only traces of moisture could be seen on the bluestone brick surface.

She was standing under the south patio at that time.

Looking up at the snow in the sky, I miss Kyoto.

Therefore, looking at the snow now, Ming Jin only asked people to clear a small path for walking, and the rest of the snow was left to remain.

It can be used for viewing or for playing.

She never restricted her subordinates.

Hua Sui had never seen such heavy snow before, and he had developed a childish mentality around Ming Jin. After asking for mercy from Ming Jin early this morning, he took A Bao and several little maids to make snowmen and have snowball fights in the yard, which was quite lively.

"Brother Ying, stop standing there and come play with us!"

Hua Sui's voice was heard outside. She was laughing very lively, but was suddenly attacked by someone and immediately shouted, "Oh, who hit me!"

Looking back, he saw that the culprit was actually Abao, and he immediately shouted again: "Brother Ying, your brother hit me, come and help me!"

Brother Ying was still dressed in black.

She has martial arts skills and internal strength, so even in such a severe winter, she doesn't wear too much.

She was originally sitting on the porch holding a scimitar, but now she appeared in the vastness. Although her face was still serious, she actually followed Hua Sui's words and joined the snowball fight team.

No one outside expected Brother Ying to join.

Even Po didn't expect this.

Looking at Brother Ying who suddenly appeared, he widened his eyes with a look of disbelief.

"sister?"

Yingge looked at him, then picked up a pile of snow from the ground, rolled it into a ball, and handed it to Huasui, saying simply: "Beat him."

Hua Sui blinked and didn't react at first.

Until Ying Ge raised his eyebrows and threw the snowball at Po.

Po didn't react for a moment and sat down on the snow.

Hua Sui finally came to her senses, she hadn’t expected that Ying Ge would really end up like this, and actually help her deal with A Bao, but she soon burst into laughter: “Here I come!”

Abao is no longer the sickly child he used to be.

Mingjin specially called a doctor to see him, and took good care of him with medicine and nourishing foods. Now he is as healthy as any other child.

Besides studying with Ming Jinghuai.

Mingjin also hired a martial arts master for them to teach them some boxing and kicking techniques to strengthen their bodies.

Although Po is young, he is very smart.

Just now they "incited" the people around Hua Sui to rebel, and now several people are attacking Hua Sui together.

I thought the situation was clear, but I didn't expect my sister to join the battle.

"Stinky Abao, wait and see how I deal with you!"

A Bao finally reacted to Hua Sui's laughter, and shouted, "Sister, you actually helped Hua Sui and not me!"

He was very agile and got up from the ground in a flash.

Brother Ying stood by, with his arms folded across his chest, and didn't move.

But the other maids were still afraid of Yingge's momentum and dared not join the battle.

For a while, there were only Abao and Hua Sui chasing and playing on the field.

Mingjin sat on the Hu bed by the window.

There was a floor heating in the room and some windows were half open, so it didn't feel cold.

She is cutting peach charms paper.

I made an agreement with Gu Mingheng yesterday that we would write Spring Festival couplets together today.

Hearing the noise outside, she looked up and watched for a while. Looking at the lively scene, Mingjin's beautiful eyes also showed a faint smile.

She looked for a while and then lowered her head.

Chunyu and Aunt Pei were also there to serve.

Two people were also cutting paper.

A small stack of paper has been placed on the small table. In addition to the long peach-shaped paper used for writing Spring Festival couplets, there is also a square one that is specifically used to write "Fu".

Listen to what's going on outside.

Chun Yu couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't expect Ying Ge would join in."

Aunt Pei said, "You have spoiled these children too much," but there was a smile in her eyes.

There was also a smile in Chunyu's eyes.

Seeing that the red date soup in Mingjin's hand was almost finished, he scooped another bowl of soup from the teapot on the small red clay stove.

She finally decided to marry Chen Yi.

The master's words that day were an epiphany for her, and she was also afraid that she would regret it in the future.

However, she still asked Mingjin for grace and planned to continue to help at the Tzu Chi Hall after marriage.

She didn't really want to be a government official's wife with an idle life.

She knew her identity. Even if she married Chen Yi, she would not be able to get into the circle of real officials' wives. Even if she did, it would be difficult for her to find someone who suited her.

She didn't like those hypocritical relationships, nor did she want to be used as a stepping stone to get close to the master and the prince.

Besides, she couldn't bear to leave her master and Hua Sui and the others.

Although you cannot serve the master closely when you go to Tzu Chi Hall, at least you can have some connection with the master.

She can also continue to work for her master.

She likes to work with her master.

The master had no objection to this and said it was up to her as long as she was happy.

She also told Chen Yi.

She thought that if Chen Yi had any concerns about this and felt that it was not right for his wife to do such a thing and that it brought shame on him as the head of the Ministry of Justice, then she would take this opportunity to give up on him and would not have any regrets when she thought about this matter in the future.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yi agreed without even thinking about it.

So the marriage between the two was settled.

However, Chunyu still plans to wait until her master gets married before getting married.

"There's no one else around, so there's no limit." Ming Jin took the teacup and drank it in small sips.

The red date soup is good.

The flavor is brought out when cooked, and it is sweet even without adding sugar.

She looked outside again.

This time he was not looking at Hua Sui and the others, but at the path leading out of the yard.

At this time on normal days, Gu Mingheng should have arrived.

"What time is it?" she asked.

Chunyu glanced outside and replied, "It's almost noon."

She knew why her master asked about the time, so she asked again, "Should we send someone to check outside?"

"No need. If he didn't come, he would have sent someone to tell him. He must have been delayed on the road." Ming Jin said as he continued to cut paper with his head down.

Chunyu and Aunt Pei didn't say anything more.

Amid the laughter outside, the three of them cut some more. Ming Jin saw that it was enough, so he asked them to stop.

Aunt Pei looked at the time and went to the kitchen.

The prince hasn't arrived yet, and she's afraid that if they don't deliver the food on time, the food will get cold by then, so she has to go and remind them.

Chunyu also went outside, giving Huasui and the others a chance to rest.

If you continue playing around, you'll be covered in sweat and snow and will definitely catch a cold.

Fortunately, she had asked someone to prepare ginger soup.

It can help them ward off the cold.

Ming Jin sat by the window and watched what was happening outside for a while. Seeing that Gu Mingheng had not come yet, she felt a little bored, so she went inside to get some writing brush, ink and inkstone.

The ink is not yet dry.

She dipped the pen in ink and planned to write two pieces to test her hand.

One was written in the small regular script with hairpin flowers that she often wrote, and the other was written in the new font she had learned.

After finishing it, Mingjin read it with satisfaction.

The small regular script is beautiful.

Running script is majestic.

Put together, they are obviously very different, yet they complement each other.

"Didn't we agree to wait for me to come and then write together?"

Suddenly a familiar voice came into my ears.

Mingjin looked up immediately and saw Gu Mingheng coming.

There were still traces of the wind and snow on his body, his black cloak was stained with snow, and his hair was a little wet. He looked into her eyes, but his expression was always the same, with a gentle and indulgent smile.

Because his body was still wet, he didn't approach her immediately, but stood far away and looked at her.

A bright smile appeared on Mingjin's face almost immediately: "Why are you so late today?" As she said that, she put down the two blessing characters in her hands and walked towards Gu Mingheng.

If she had done this in the past, Gu Mingheng would definitely have asked her to stop.

I was afraid that the coldness in my body would pass to her.

Then he took off his cloak and asked someone to take it out to dry, then wiped his hands with a hot towel. Only after the coldness in his body was gone did he walk towards Mingjin.

Although he asked her not to go over today, he did not take off his cloak immediately.

Only then did Ming Jin notice that there was something wrong with his hand.

His right arm was bent, as if he was holding something.

Every time he came back, he would bring something for Mingjin. If he did not leave the palace, he would bring cakes and snacks made by the palace's chef. If he went out, he would bring all kinds of delicious food in Kyoto city.

Today it’s squab, tomorrow it’s roast duck.

Occasionally there are some street snacks, such as roasted sweet potatoes, candied haws...

Mingjin felt that his cheeks had grown a lot of flesh because of the food he had been feeding her recently.

I just thought that Gu Mingheng brought some food today.

Mingjin was helpless.

"I asked the kitchen to prepare a hot pot today, and also had someone prepare a lot of ingredients. If you feed me more, I really won't be able to eat it later."

"Aunt Pei will definitely scold me again then."

Ming Jin said this, and stood on tiptoe with a handkerchief to wipe the snow water off Gu Mingheng's hands and face.

Gu Mingheng bent down to accommodate Mingjin, making it easier for Mingjin to wipe him, saying, "It's not about eating today."

Gu Mingheng had a smile on his face.

Under Mingjin's surprised gaze, he smiled and lifted one side of his cloak, allowing Mingjin to see what was inside.

"what?"

Mingjin didn't see clearly at first.

Until he saw Gu Mingheng's hand move, and then a small ball of thing began to move. After a while, a pair of green eyes met Mingjin's eyes.

——It turned out to be a small black raccoon the size of a palm!

"Little raccoon slave?"

Mingjin opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"Where did it come from?" she asked in surprise.

Some time ago, when she was reading a book with Gu Mingheng, she saw a poem about raccoon dogs and mentioned it to Gu Mingheng.

She likes Li Nu very much.

But I have never raised one, so I don’t know whether it is easy or not.

At that time, Gu Mingheng said that he would take her to Kyoto to see where raccoons were raised in the spring. If they found one that suited her, they would raise one and try it out.

Ming Jin looked at the small thing in his hand and wanted to reach out, but he was a little hesitant.

She had never come into contact with such a small creature.

I was a little excited, but also afraid of dropping it.

She looked at Li Nu and asked Gu Mingheng, "Didn't we agree to go shopping together next spring?"
