warm winter

For Yuan Yuan, the Spring Festival holidays in previous years were worth looking forward to.Because only then will Yuan Honghao stop flying around the world all year round and stay at home for a few days with peace of mind.

Aunt Liu knocked on Yuan Yuan's door with some newly delivered custom-made clothes, and opened the door to go in after hearing the humming inside.It was probably because he was tired a while ago, and he had to go back and forth to Europe, and the Yuan family held a wedding, so this child was often tossed about.

Aunt Liu deliberately waited until nearly eleven o'clock before going upstairs, and Mrs. Yuan also acquiesced.In normal times, Yuan Yuan would never be allowed to be so unruly: Too much sleepiness at a young age = lack of energy.

"Xiao Yuan, get up quickly, the kitchen has made your favorite snack today."

Aunt Liu hung her clothes in the closet, and every new year, the exclusive designer would send over new clothes.However, in the past two years, Yuan Yuan has started to grow and develop again, and often the clothes no longer fit after half a year, and the wardrobe is not as full as it used to be.

"Well, I don't want to get up, I want to lie down for a while longer." The bed was so warm and soft, Yuan Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with showing a little childishness in front of Aunt Liu, especially now that she was sleepy.

Aunt Liu closed the closet door, walked to the bedside and petted you, looked at her, and gently picked up the corner of the quilt that had slipped to the floor.

"It's almost noon. You've gotten up late these two days and you haven't eaten breakfast. It's not good for your stomach if you continue like this."

Aunt Liu always speaks softly and softly, which makes people want to rely on her.Even if Yuan Yuan made a mistake, she would not kill her with a red neck.But in Yuan Yuan's heart, he still couldn't achieve the deepest level of intimacy.Probably because I felt the breath of my mother when I was a child, and only after comparing it did I know the wonder of blood is thicker than water.

Today should be the coldest day of this winter, the temperature outside has dropped sharply, and it's freezing to the bone.The heating was fully turned on in the mansion, but Yuan Yuan was still reluctant to get out of bed.

"Aunt Liu, let me eat in my room. I don't have much appetite anyway, so just eat something." Yuan Yuan poked his head out with difficulty, except for the eyes that had just opened, he reluctantly exposed his nose and mouth. .

"Not today, there are guests at home."

"Is there a guest? Who is it?" Yuan Yuan regained consciousness a little bit, but after thinking about it, he couldn't guess who it was.

Although Yuan Honghao is usually very busy with business affairs, he has a principle: he will never bring his business affairs home during important festivals.Therefore, those who can visit during the Spring Festival must be people with close personal relationships, but she has never heard Xin He say that she will come today.

If it wasn't Uncle Jane, who would it be?Didn't the other people who have a good relationship with Dad already meet on the day of the engagement? Is it necessary to do it again today?

Seeing that Yuan Yuan seemed to be squinting again after thinking about it, Aunt Liu quickly told her the answer: "It's Miss Ye."

Although she is engaged, she is not officially married after all, so calling her wife is absolutely unacceptable.Therefore, the Yuan family had a tacit understanding and called Ye Qing Miss Ye in a unified manner.

Although she was called Miss Ye, Ye Qing's status in the Yuan family was different from that of other people, and Aunt Liu did not dare to neglect her words.

is her? !

Yuan Yuan's last drowsiness disappeared in an instant, and he sat up in a hurry.The pajamas printed with Pikachu cartoon patterns were lightly attached to her body. Aunt Liu was afraid that she would catch a cold, so she quickly picked up the nightgown next to her and covered her body.

"I said little ancestor, you're either stuck in bed, or jumped up suddenly, what if you catch a cold!" Aunt Liu was really anxious, with an uncontrollable eagerness in her tone.

Yuan Yuan tugged on his nightgown, and hurriedly got out of bed to wash up.As she walked, she asked, "Has she arrived yet?"

"Not yet, the old lady told you to sleep more, so the lunch time was moved back."

Um?Yuan Yuan was stunned as soon as he stuffed the toothbrush into his mouth. He didn't expect grandma to love her so much today, making exceptions for her again and again.

After thinking about it, she couldn't help grinning the corners of her mouth, letting the toothpaste foam drip down her chin into the sink.In grandma's heart, she is much more important than Ye Qing, and she has an inherent advantage in this war.

After washing up, Yuan Yuan thought about it seriously, changed out of the Pikachu pajamas she was wearing, and chose a British-style sweater suit from the closet, which matched her mixed-race appearance very well.

Aunt Liu probably didn't expect Yuan Yuan to choose this outfit, it's not that it's not good-looking, but it's a bit mature, and it's specially prepared for her college entrance interview.

"Let's go downstairs, don't keep the guests waiting." Yuan Yuan blinked mischievously, being obedient and sensible, coupled with this outfit, made Aunt Liu feel relieved.

The child really grew up and became more and more sensible.

Yuan Honghao sent a driver to pick up Ye Qing, and he also waited in person at the gate of the mansion, giving him enough attention and respect.Ye Qing is a very good partner, not only dedicated but also professional, he knows how to behave when he comes to Yuan's house today.

She took off the luxurious dress on her engagement day and wore a suit that was not so conspicuous but could set off her temperament.The color system is softer than her usual cool tone, which makes her more gentle than usual.

"Ye Qing, come here, it's too cold outside, don't freeze." Yuan Honghao saw Ye Qing get off the car, and walked towards her quickly.

Obviously he was only wearing a shirt and a sweater, even less than Ye Qing's coat, but his eyes were all about her concern.If it hadn't been agreed on the phone in advance that he would greet him at the door, Ye Qing would probably have been fooled by Yuan Honghao's acting skills, thinking that he really cared about whether he was afraid of the cold.

Haicheng's winter is really cold, cold to the bone, no matter how much you wear, it won't help, it's unavoidable.That being the case, Ye Qing chose to resist head-on, wanting style rather than temperature, just adding an extra thick woolen coat compared to wintering in Europe.

"You need to get rid of this habit. It's hard not to get sick if you dress like this in Haicheng for the winter." Yuan Honghao is very gentleman. Although he walked to the living room with Ye Qing side by side, he still kept a fist distance.

"Winter in Haicheng, I don't think I'll ever be able to adapt." Ye Qing walked from the car to the room, but within a few minutes, she couldn't stop shivering a few times after stepping into the warm room.

The humid air makes the coldness linger for a long time, and the cold air can't get rid of it when it is contaminated on the body.Ye Qing responded to Yuan Honghao with a joking tone, but she laughed at herself very seriously in her heart. Every winter in Haicheng from now on, she will be completely submerged in damp and cold.

Today is the day when Ye Qing officially participates in the Yuan family's New Year's Day as an unmarried daughter-in-law, and it is also the day when she officially gets along with her future family members.Yuan Honghao had done homework for her beforehand, and gave a rough introduction to Mrs. Yuan and Yuan Yuan's personalities and preferences.

He protects his family very well, it is impossible to tell all the details of the family in detail, but he believes that Ye Qing is a smart person and knows how to adapt.Besides, he also wanted to see if Ye Qing's actual performance met his expectations.After all, all the previous guesses were based on Ye Qing's performance at work. Yuan Honghao also made a bet with himself on how she is in life.

He bet that his vision of seeing people was right, he bet that Ye Qing was different from everyone else he had seen before.

Mrs. Yuan was wearing an exquisitely handcrafted cheongsam, and a fur shawl that felt good to the touch.Ye Qing is an animal protectionist. In her designs, fur elements have long been removed, and she also tries to avoid appearing in fur-style shows.

But right now, she can't help but say her attitude. People of Mrs. Yuan's age and status are the main customers of high-end fur clothing.Ye Qing is well aware that this kind of customers have a long-term obsession with rare and gorgeous fur products similar to their age.

But she still frowned slightly as she approached, as if disapproving from the bottom of her heart.But soon she adjusted her emotions, silently reminding herself that she is currently at work, and her personal emotions cannot affect the overall situation.

But Ye Qing's eyes still fell on Mrs. Yuan's fur shawl, she simply glanced over it, and she could tell the texture and cost after just a few glances, and even the designer could recognize it.

Sure enough, it was a big deal. Such a shawl is almost equivalent to a half-suite in the suburbs.

Old Madam Yuan was sitting upright, her expression was indifferent, without majestic oppression, but Ye Qing didn't see any genuine joy in her coming.But the scrutiny in her eyes appeared from time to time, but fortunately she was already mentally prepared.

Going forward politely and handing over the gift he carefully prepared, Ye Qing has a very respectful attitude towards his elders.

"Auntie, happy new year. I hope you like this New Year's gift."

Ye Qing held a small brocade box in both hands, Yuan Yuan looked at it and guessed it was probably jewelry.

Madam Yuan put down the teacup in her hand, and said with a faint smile, "Just come, what gifts do you need? From now on, you will come here often when you are free, but don't bring any more gifts, see you."

She said it kindly, but Mrs. Yuan didn't accept the gift immediately, but motioned to Aunt Liu beside her to take it.

A trace of displeasure flashed in Yuan Honghao's eyes, but Ye Qing showed no sign of displeasure, kept smiling, adjusted his hands slightly, and sent them to Aunt Liu.

Yuan Yuan was sitting next to Mrs. Yuan, after Ye Qing greeted the elder, his eyes naturally fell on the person next to him.

Yuan Yuan had been peeking at her just now, and it was too late to restrain herself, so she easily met Ye Qing's gaze.There is no way to avoid it, and there are no excuses.

Yuan Honghao probably didn't expect his mother's attitude to be so cold in advance, so he had to put aside his previous indifference and take all the next steps seriously.

Seeing Yuan Yuan and Ye Qing's eyes met now, but neither of them said anything, it's not a good sign if things go on like this.Yuan Honghao made a decisive decision and decided to let his young daughter warm up the scene.

"Xiaoyuan, why don't you call me? I haven't seen you for a few days, so I forgot?" Yuan Honghao really didn't know how to get along with children, probably because of his busy years, he still couldn't adapt to the role of father.

His pretended serious tone not only failed to enliven the atmosphere, but made the scene even more embarrassing.Yuan Yuan had always resisted Ye Qing, and he had been thinking about how to make her look ugly today and destroy her impression in grandma's heart.

But just now she stared at Ye Qing very dispiritedly and lost her mind. It took a long time to recover from Ye Qing's new image, and her father's deep words came to her ears.

Yuan Honghao's words drove away the good feelings instinctively born from the bottom of his heart, and Yuan Yuan's rationality returned to its place in an instant.She adjusted her sitting posture and got closer to grandma.

"Happy New Year, Ye Qing, here's the envelope, thank you." After finishing speaking, Yuan Yuan raised the corners of her mouth sharply, revealing her signature smile.

If he didn't know her true attitude, Ye Qing would probably be deceived by Yuan Yuan's smile.She was absent-minded for a moment: The acting skills of the Yuan family's father and daughter are quite good, probably due to heredity.

Ye Qing had been prepared for a long time, and calmly took out the red envelope from his coat pocket, the corner of Yuan Yuan's mouth twitched.Fortunately, she thought that Ye Qing had lived abroad for many years and was a fashion designer, such a foreign-looking person would not bring red envelopes with him.

She was naive, she had to stand up, stretch out her hands obediently to receive the red envelope.She didn't know if it was her illusion, she felt that Ye Qing was holding the red envelope on purpose and refused to give it to her easily, until she raised her eyes to look, only to see Ye Qing's eyes as usual.

"Thank you. But I don't have a gift for you, sorry."

Holding the thick red envelope, Yuan Yuan lowered her eyes in embarrassment and whispered.

Since she was a child, she has never been a real villain, and she has made up her mind many times every time she wants to target Ye Qing.The current her is the real instinct and the real her.

Ye Qing's sharp eyes saw Yuan Yuan's ears turning red very quickly, and he couldn't help laughing.

"It's okay, children have red envelopes during the Chinese New Year."

Um?Yuan Yuan thought for a while before realizing the meaning of Ye Qing's words.
