Cold and warm depend on each other

Waking up in the morning, the snow is clear and the sky is clear, and bright light and shadows fall from the veil.The soft quilt was very warm, Xue Wanxiang nestled in Su Zhe's arms and blinked slowly.The long and curly eyelashes brushed Su Zhe's chin, before she opened her eyes, she had already pecked her with a smile.

"Are you awake?" He pecked again.

Xue Wanxiang hugged her arm and smiled softly.

"Are you hungry? I'll bring you breakfast. Or do you want to go downstairs?" Su Zhe yawned slightly, with a loving and gentle voice.

In the past few days, she had just recovered from a serious illness, and Su Zhe would spoil her whatever she wanted, but she didn't want to do anything, she just wanted to stay in her arms.

"Wait a little longer, let's talk and get up again." Xue Wanxiang said softly, her face was red, she never stayed in bed since she was a child, and now she is pampered, and all bad habits have come out .She rubbed her hands and buried her face in Su Zhe's neck.

The light from outside the drape came in, plating a layer of light gold on her exquisite jade-like side face, Su Zhe lowered his head and took a bite on her ear, she put her arms around her neck, giggling .

Occasionally acting like a baby like this has its own indescribable charm and softness.

"On this snowy day, I can't tell what time it is. Well... When I was young, my brothers and I were forced to practice by the master every day, and we were picked up before dawn. At first, the teacher was pregnant and felt that We were so pitiful at such a young age, and later Master told her how to gain a foothold in the Jianghu if we didn’t put in hard work. The Master thought so deeply, and started to help after giving birth to the little junior sister! Chou! Do! Abuse!” Su Zhe said with a look of gnashing his teeth. , hugging her again, pulling up the quilt to cover her shoulders.

Xue Wanxiang knew that she had been "tortured" terribly, teasing her and saying, "How can I help the tyrant?"

"Usually at the end of the day and the beginning of the day, before dawn, the master would go to the brothers' room and pick them up one by one. My youngest brother is surnamed Chen, who is two years older than me. He is playful by nature, but he has good aptitude. Once it was so cold that he couldn't get up, so he hid under the quilt and said he was sick. Without further ado, my master came in with a bucket of water and poured it on his head. Brother Chen immediately got up from the quilt. Before it was over, the master punished him to run shirtless in the snow for an hour. From then on, none of the seniors dared to stay in bed."

Xue Wanxiang seldom heard her talking about the master's school, but now she heard her chattering non-stop, imagining how she practiced martial arts with short arms and short legs when she was young, she couldn't help but smile. "What about you? What should you do if you stayed in bed when you were young? Master can't pour water on you too, right?" She raised her chin slightly as she spoke, looking at her beaming face.

Su Zhe wrapped his arms around her waist, leaned over and kissed her on the chin, and stroked her back with one hand from top to bottom, like smoothing the fur of a cat. "At that time, I was about four years old, and my junior sister was only three years old. I was forced to stand up every day. When I was young, I shared a room with my junior sister and shared a bed. We didn't separate until we were seven or eight years old. Once we discussed Tomorrow, no one will get up from the bed, and we will live and die all day. Who knows that the teacher's wife is here, seeing us pretending to sleep, she walks to the side of the bed with a smile, and shakes the winter quilt with both hands, hey, hey, the cold wind is blowing I was so cold that I was so cold that I was almost stupid. The teacher's wife didn't feel bad at all, and said with a smile, Su Xiaoman, Cao Xiaoman, do you want to get up and practice?" Su Zhe shrank under the quilt, as if he was still afraid of the cold, and slipped inside. In Xue Wanxiang's arms: "Oh, little junior sister was born in early winter, and the plum blossoms just bloomed. That's why her baby name is Xiaoqian. But we always laugh at her, she's more than dumbfounded. Hehehe."

Xue Wanxiang pinched her earlobe, and asked for a while, "What's your baby name? Su Xiaoman?"

"Well. My baby name was also chosen by my wife. She said that there should be nothing in my life, and I should not be too full. If it is full, it will be a loss. Therefore, Su Xiaoman means just right."

She was abandoned by her father since she was a child, and she has not received much love from her mother. She has no brothers and sisters, and no family background.After that, they dispersed silently, and there is no news so far.The teacher's wife named her Xiaoman, which is not a vision.

Xue Wanxiang felt sore and soft in her heart, she wanted to say that you have me.But she couldn't speak.Because she can't.She was afraid that she would leave eventually, so what's the difference between that and Su Zhe's parents?

"Azhe..." She put her arms around her neck, put her chin on the top of her hair, and hugged her tightly.

Su Zhe stayed in her arms for a while, and his muffled voice came up: "Wan Xiang..."

"Ok?"

Su Zhe seemed to sigh: "Are you... are you going to suffocate me with your high mountains?"

Xue Wanxiang was startled, and realized what she meant, her face was flushed red, and she immediately wanted to push her away.

Su Zhe's bracelet was around her waist, and he had anticipated her movements when he spoke. He felt her bare hands push, hugged her tightly, and then moved closer. He just lifted his face, and sure enough, his cheeks were red and hot. trace.

Xue Wanxiang's face was hot, she didn't dare to look at her, she pushed her shoulder with her hand and said: "Get up, I won't be able to eat breakfast in a while."

"Stick for a while longer, I'm not hungry yet." Su Zhe said, his stomach growled in response to the situation, Xue Wanxiang chuckled.

A few brothers from the Junshan School had set off for two or three days. Before leaving, they left a horse for Su Zhe. Su Zhe said that Xue Wanxiang was weak and couldn't get the wind, so she accompanied her in the carriage.

Xue Wanxiang was also there when she said this, and said with twinkling eyes that she had never ridden a horse before, could she sit on the horse for a while.After hearing this, Su Zhe turned and went to the stables, led the most beautiful bay red horse, put Xue Wanxiang on the horse's back, turned himself over, and protected her and galloped towards the open land of the Chilong River.

The turbulent river has been frozen for thousands of miles. Worried about the slippery surface of the river, Su Zhe didn't let the horses pass, and only watched from a distance at the ferry flag.Xue Wanxiang nestled in her arms and watched her guide Jiangshan, his eyes were silvery white until endless.

Back at the inn, Su Zhe jumped off the horse first, and when he carried Xue Wanxiang off the horse, he found that the little leather boots she was wearing were a little thin, so he simply refused to let her get off the ground, and only let her off after he hugged her all the way to the inn corridor.Cao Youqi just came out of the inn, looked at this posture, and teased loudly: "Young master Su, the beacon fire plays with the princes, the concubine of the world laughs, you are a foolish king in the court hall."

Su Zhe smiled and didn't take it seriously: "The beauty is by your side, don't talk about the flames of mortals, so it doesn't matter if I hand over the country." While talking, he kicked on brand-new cashmere boots, and pulled the pretty red-faced Xue Wanxiang towards her. went upstairs.

Cao Youqi consciously ate another bowl of sweet food, and was so tired that he panicked.

The day before the Junshan faction was going to cross the river, Cao Youqi went to Guangping City on his own. The brothers meet up and slip away quietly alone.Wang Yupei was very annoyed, and sent Junior Brother Chen to chase after him in Guangping City.Su Zhe persuaded, the younger sister is smart, if she really wants to hide, I'm afraid no one can catch up.Wang Yupei had no choice but to give up.

The breakfast is served in the lobby. The unique red bean paste glutinous rice balls in the inn, hot noodles and glutinous rice, paired with winter wheat tea, is an authentic Jiangbei snack.

There were four glutinous rice balls on a plate, Su Zhe used two, Xue Wanxiang only used one.Su Zhe frowned and said: "It's too little, it's cold here, and I can't bear it." She said and put a lone dumpling on the plate into Xue Wanxiang's bowl.

Xue Wanxiang didn't make a sound, and obediently took a small bite with downcast eyes, the red bean paste sticking out a little bit on her lips.

Su Zhe stared at it for a long time, and couldn't help stretching out his hand, sticking to the corner of her mouth, and rubbing that little red bean onto his fingertips.Xue Wanxiang's eyes brightened, watching her retract her fingertips and put them in her mouth.

The noise of people coming and going in the hotel lobby, I don't know if anyone has noticed it.Xue Wanxiang's face was slightly hot, she lowered her head and took a sip of the winter wheat tea.

Seeing that she couldn't eat anymore, Su Zhe picked up most of the fat dumpling with his chopsticks and ate it slowly.

There is nothing else to do here, and after staying for these few days, although no one wants to speak, they all know in their hearts that it is time to go to Linhuai.

Su Zhe first went to the carriage and horse shop to hire a carriage, and then came back to accompany Xue Wanxiang to pack his clothes and salute.Early the next morning, the coachman rode his horse and waited in front of the inn at the agreed time. Su Zhe settled the rent and went out with a big salute.

They stayed for seven or eight days in a row, and the shopkeeper knew how to do business, so he asked someone to pack a plate of freshly made glutinous rice dumplings, and asked the waiter in the shop to deliver them to the carriages and horses.

When they got into the car, the waiter bent over to help the driver pass the high and low children, and said with an apologetic smile, "Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, go slowly. You pass by the Chilong River in the future, and come to our shop for a seat."

Xue Wanxiang paused for a while while holding the hand on the wall of the car, Su Zhe asked her what was wrong, she shook her head.

The doors were closed left and right, and a curtain was lowered to block the wind.The coachman yelled at the horses and moved forward. Xue Wanxiang raised the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. The gray tiles and white walls were scattered at different heights. The heavy snow had not yet melted, and the world was pure white.The scenery she and Su Zhe walked along the way, one look, one less.That sentence "Mrs. Su", if you listen to it, there will be one less sentence.

After crossing the Chilong River, it is only seven or eight days away from Linhuai City.The avenue is safe, but the road is lonely.The carriage walked unhurriedly, and after a while, it still arrived at Linhuai Border.

At noon this day, the sky was a bit dull.Fearing the rain, the coachman asked his owner: "Go forward for an hour, there is a small town, stay in the town for one night, and you will arrive in Linhuai City tomorrow."

The two people in the car were silent.After a while, Su Zhe's voice came out: "Then let's go to town and rest for the night."

There is only one inn in the town. The coachman parked the carriage in the backyard and locked the salute and the carriage together.The ink rolls in the sky, and the heavy rain is about to come.

Su Zhe accompanied Xue Wanxiang back to his room and settled down. Seeing that the sun was still long, he took his long sword and came down to practice in the courtyard.The cold wind whistled at the tip of the sword, she danced more and more anxiously, more anxiously and more focused, the sharp sword was like a swimming dragon, drawing an imposing arc like a rainbow under the hazy sky, striking with all her strength!Finally, I forgot all the things that were on my mind.
