Listen to the wind blowing snow [Comprehensive + Sword III]

Yu Tingfeng had been raised in Fuzhou for about a month, and when her bones had basically grown into shape and the short journey would not affect them, she and Ximen Chuixue set off to return to Wanmei Villa.

But Yu Tingfeng was hurt after all, and the two of them were not walking fast.It was already late autumn in mid-October when we left Fuzhou, and the day after we returned to Saibei Wanmei Villa, we happened to encounter the first snow in northern winter.

Counting it, it has been nearly a year since the two of them left Wanmei Villa. After receiving the news of their return, the housekeeper of Wanmei Villa brought people and waited at the gate of the villa early in the morning.

Ximen Chuuxue has always been emotionally introverted, even if the housekeeper has [-]% affection for him, at most he can only show a little bit in front of him.When he saw Ximen Chuuxue riding the horse and returning with the carriage with no expression on his face, he was most excited and just secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.Just as he was about to go up to him and pretend to be downplaying the hard work of the tunnel, he saw that Ximen Chuuxue just nodded at him as a signal, then got off the horse and leaned into the carriage—after a while, he carefully put Yu Tingfeng hugged him out.

Tan Shu followed behind him, leaping with all his strength, first he jumped on the head of Ximen Chuixue, then tilted his head to look at the butler, and finally twitched his tail, and jumped on the butler's shoulder.

The butler first raised his hand to touch the fluffy sandalwood book, and joked: "Tanshu, have you gained weight recently?" After harvesting the sandalwood book with a dissatisfied "squeak", he looked up at Yu Tingfeng— —

At this time, the little girl was completely wrapped in a thick cloak, with a wool cap on her head, and the scarf around her neck was pulled to her nose, leaving only a pair of eyes.As soon as she was carried out, she tilted her head slightly, her big eyes curved into a pair of crescent moons with a smile, and sweetly called out "Grandpa Butler!"

Steward Immediately: "0.0"

—— On the issue of Ximen Chuuxue's upbringing, Yu Luocha didn't even feel at ease with himself, and the steward of Wanmei Villa who he could trust with was to some extent someone he trusted very much. Therefore, the steward knew very well His own leader's thoughts and attitudes towards the little girl brought back by the owner: the son is cold and has no feelings, and the little girl is soft. If she can melt this ice and marry into Yu's family, it will be a good future.

So when he saw the natural intimacy of Ximen Chuixue and Yu Tingfeng, as if the two of them had made some practical progress when they went out for a trip, he immediately began to think about how to report this matter to the leader, and then thought That said, Miss Yu is already fourteen years old. After the new year, she will reach the age of 15, and the owner of the villa will reach the crown at the age of 20. She will be able to get married in that year and have a baby in a year—it cannot be more perfect.

However, he soon realized something was wrong.

At this time, Ximen Chuuxue had already carried Yu Tingfeng to the villa, but his movements were too cautious.

Of course it's okay to be careful with the girl you like, because people will feel pity for the one they love, and they are afraid that the other party will be hurt even a little bit, but the owner of the villa is too careful at this time.

It was as if Miss Yu was a porcelain doll... Then he saw that Yu Tingfeng felt a little bored, stretched out his left hand and pulled down the thick scarf, revealing a slightly sickly pale face.

The butler couldn't help being startled, leaned forward, looked carefully, and said worriedly: "Miss Yu is... sick? Why is your face so bad?"

"It's not sick." Yu Tingfeng looked up at him, his bright eyes were full of smiles, and said: "It's just a little injury, but don't worry, grandpa housekeeper, he's almost healed!"

Only then did the housekeeper notice that Yu Tingfeng's hugged posture was actually not very comfortable, it looked very rigid.Then he suddenly remembered that a while ago, the owner of the villa seemed to have sent a message saying that he didn't know where Miss Yu had gone.Because there was no information sent back after that, he thought that the owner of the villa had found someone... so it turned out that he didn't?And it seems that Miss Yu was injured because of that disappearance?

The housekeeper suddenly became anxious: "What kind of injury did the girl suffer?"

"It's just...something happened, and I accidentally broke a bone." Yu Tingfeng would not lie, so he could only speak as lightly as possible, for fear of scaring the housekeeper's grandfather.However, despite this, seeing the butler's face change in an instant, he quickly added: "It's okay to have a broken bone. Anyway, I'm young and grow up very fast!"

But it's not a question of growing fast at all!The butler's face was still very ugly.

Yu Tingfeng didn't stay in Wanmei Villa for too long, almost a year, but he still basically got a feel for her temperament. Although this child is young, she is actually very independent. A child of her age doesn't want adults to underestimate her, so she won't think about relying on others when she can do many things by herself. At this time, she can be so plainly held by Ximen Chuuxue, it can only be because she doesn't care about her. Can't walk - to this extent, it can't be regarded as "slightly".

Sure enough——Ximen Chuixue left quickly, and arrived at the room that Yu Tingfeng had arranged before in a while.

I heard before that the two of them arrived almost two days ago. At this time, the room has been cleaned. Because of the cold weather, charcoal fires were specially lit. In less than half a day, the whole room has been heated up, and the north wind is howling. The outside world can be regarded as two worlds.So as soon as he entered, the butler stepped forward to help Yu Tingfeng untie his scarf and coat, and then gave a sudden meal——

The pinch mark on the neck was already very faint, but the clear marks around it could still be seen, not to mention that the arms and legs were all firmly fixed with wooden boards, and there was only one person in the whole body.

"Who did it!" The butler was so angry that his hands clutching the coat were shaking.

Seeing this, Yu Tingfeng was afraid that the grandpa butler would be angry, so he quickly stretched out his only left hand that had nothing to do, held the butler's hand, and softly comforted him: "Let the grandpa butler worry about me—it's really okay, it's Doctor Ping Bone for me, when the Lantern Festival comes, I can go out alive and kicking with the housekeeper grandpa to set off lanterns!"

The butler's mood calmed down a little.

He raised his eyes to look at Ximen Chuuxue.

Ximen Chuuxue nodded at him.

The housekeeper knew that he was saying that the bad guys had been dealt with, so he felt sorry for Yu Tingfeng immediately, and sighed: "Oh, you girl——I don't know medicine, but this bone is broken, even if it can be reconnected, it won't hurt." It’s not the same as before. Oh no, I have to go to the kitchen and let them cook some bone soup. Didn’t you say that what you eat will nourish you? Then I have to nourish your bones well. If you don’t raise them well, you won’t grow up in the future. what to do?"

Huh! "Will you grow taller?" Yu Tingfeng opened his eyes wide: "Grandpa housekeeper, tell the cooks and sisters to cook more. I will try my best to drink more and grow taller!"

Hearing this, the butler finally showed a smile on his face. He didn't point out that the girl got up early, she was so short now that she might not grow up, so he just nodded with a smile and said, "Okay." Alright, I'm going right now."

So until the new year, Wanmei Villa is surrounded by a thick layer of bone soup, which is very delicious and very down-to-earth.

The days are short in winter, and the two of them didn't come back until after noon. As soon as they packed their luggage, the sky almost darkened.

Ximen Chuuxue still ate dinner in the dining room, and the butler delivered Yu Tingfeng's meal to her room, and set up a small table directly on the bed—in Wanmei Villa, where the owner is a cold and clean freak, this kind of behavior It is simply heterogeneous!

The dinner dishes are very rich, and they are all made according to Yu Tingfeng's taste preferences. Compared with the meals on the road before, it is almost a heaven and a ground. I drank a large bowl of bone soup "gudong gudong" in one go, and my stomach bulged after eating.

The same is true for Tan Shu at the side—it has eaten a lot of nuts during the day, and it has not missed the dinner at this time, and it is slumping on the bed with its small belly and pretending to be dead.

The butler has no concept of "not being full". He is happiest when he sees children eating too much.What's more, he felt that Yu Tingfeng suffered such a serious injury when he went out this time, and he didn't know how many other grievances he couldn't see. There was nothing else he could do for the time being. Eating more would always make her feel better. OK

So when Yu Tingfeng put down his chopsticks, and asked again and again that he was too full to eat, the butler smiled and led someone to take away the food.

After dinner, the sky was getting darker and faster. After some cleaning and tidying up—especially Yu Tingfeng's legs and feet are not moving, the housekeeper arranged four maids for her, and it still took a while to completely clean her up. Take care of it.

But after the housekeeper spent an afternoon thoroughly understanding what Yu Tingfeng had experienced, he felt more and more distressed for Yu Tingfeng. light, go to rest.

It's just that I don't know whether it's because I'm getting older or I'm still worried because I heard about Yu Tingfeng. Yu Tingfeng was taken away, but there was nothing he could do... He woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, and heard the barely audible sound of clappers coming from the foot of the mountain in the distance. After calculating the time, it was about the second watch, and it was still early .He wanted to turn over and continue to sleep, but he couldn't fall asleep anyway, so he simply got up and put on his coat, raised the lamp, and prepared to go to Yutingfeng yard to have a look.

Just as he walked to the entrance of the small courtyard, he saw bright lights inside. It seemed that someone had turned on all the lights in the courtyard, and a familiar silhouette was clearly reflected on the window of the room.

The housekeeper froze for a moment, and ran in quickly.

At this time, who is sitting in front of the window of Yu Ting Feng's house with a sword in his arms, who else could it be if it wasn't the owner of his family?

At this time, Ximen Chuixue's eyes were slightly lowered, and his eyes fell on Yu Tingfeng's face, his expression was still as calm as before, as if he was thinking about something, but he seemed not thinking about anything.

The housekeeper couldn't help but wonder - what is the owner of the villa doing in the little girl's room in the middle of the night?

But he soon knew the answer.

The person who was lying heavily on the bed suddenly moved, then half propped up his upper body, and looked around blankly, but when he saw Ximen Chuuxue, he suddenly showed a reassuring smile, lay down again, and fell into a deep sleep again.

The whole process took only a breath, and if it wasn't for a sigh-like expression on Ximen Chuuxue's face, the housekeeper would have thought it was just his own illusion.

He couldn't help whispering: "Didn't it mean that Miss Yu's injury is almost healed, so why..."

"Maybe I was scared." Ximen Chuuxue frowned slightly: "Since I was fully awake, I have been waking up so many times every night... Fortunately, seeing the light and seeing people makes me feel at ease."

——There are still some details that Ximen Chuuxue didn't say.He found out that it was an accident, and before that, she would wake up in the middle of the night and keep her eyes open until dawn.

"But owner, men and women are different, and you and Miss Yu are not related, so there is no reason to keep guarding like this." The housekeeper tentatively said, "It's better..."—it would be nice to be together!

"It won't last forever." Ximen Chuuxue said calmly but firmly: "At the latest on the Lantern Festival, she will probably not be afraid anymore."

——The little girl has never been a weak person. Now she is only afraid because her pain has weakened her body and weakened her mind. When her injury is fully recovered, she will no longer be afraid of the so-called Bat Boy of Bat Island.

Butler: "..."——not...the owner of the villa, do you know Zhu Gusheng?

Ximen Chuuxue didn't know what he missed, he raised his hand and pressed the center of his brow lightly - he hadn't closed his eyes for several nights, even if a martial arts practitioner is physically strong, he was a little tired - "By the way, Tingfeng's birthday is the twelfth lunar month On the sixth day of the lunar new year, please help to prepare, it will be lively and lively, and it will probably make her happier."

"So it's almost Miss Yu's birthday? She didn't come here this time last year, so I'll definitely prepare for it this year." The butler immediately responded with a smile on his face - he also knew that she remembered her birthday. There is still salvation in the way of life!
