After a moment of bewilderment, the two wet nurses broke the silence, exclaiming, "What a rare find! This baby's father knows how to change diapers!"

After he finished speaking, everyone laughed. Li Hua held the used diaper in his hand, looking somewhat lost. This kind of thing was easy for him; Li Hua had adopted many children before... After floods or plagues, there were countless infants left homeless.

Li Hua traveled north and south, and occasionally when he encountered disasters, he would form a rescue team to take in all the orphans, raise them, and then teach them various skills.

Li Hua had about a dozen Huixiang Pavilions under his command, scattered throughout Nanzhao and Jinchuan. They all adopted displaced orphans. He would occasionally go into any of the Huixiang Pavilions he passed by and take a look, and he had also personally cared for the children.

Naturally, changing diapers is a piece of cake for her.

"The baby must be hungry. The wet nurse should take him away and feed him." The two little ones usually have the same routine. They sleep together when they fall asleep and disturb each other when they wake up.

Gan Qiongying walked to Li Hua's side, smiled, grabbed Li Hua's wrist, and led Li Hua outside to wash his hands.

"Is there anything you can't do?" Gan Qiongying asked with a smile as she and Li Hua washed their hands in the same basin. "You're so perfect that it makes me feel ashamed. I'm still not very good at changing diapers, even Gan Lin is better than me."

The main reason was that after Gan Qiongying gave birth, her wet nurse and maids were all around her all day long, and Xiao Qiansong, who was specializing in gynecology, was watching over Gan Qiongying's recuperation, so Gan Qiongying didn't actually get to take care of her child herself.

“Don’t say that,” Li Hua said, grabbing Gan Qiongying’s hand in return. “You are very good, exceptionally good.”

With a solemn expression, he grabbed Gan Qiongying's hand, pulled her closer, and embraced her tightly.

Countless sweet words and vows of eternal love churned in Li Hua's heart, but ultimately remained unspoken.

Because those words, though kept in one's heart, still feel solemn and passionate, but once spoken, they become light and airy.

Moreover, he and Gan Qiongying don't need those things; he will show Gan Qiongying everything he has to do in the future.

"The babies went to be fed, and we two rushed up the mountain, so we should eat something." Gan Qiongying pulled Li Hua along, not even bothering to wipe her hands, but just wiping them on her clothes, and said, "I'll take you to the Jishi Temple up ahead for vegetarian food, their vegetarian food is very delicious!"

Gan Qiongying didn't have Li Hua's skills to have mastered the superb roast duck technique of Phoenix Restaurant. All Gan Qiongying could do was borrow the flower to offer to Buddha. Moreover, she knew very well that even if she took Li Hua out to starve, Li Hua would still feel happy and content.

The maids did not follow, and the guards followed at a distance. The two walked hand in hand along the mountain path.

Li Hua kept turning back to look in the direction of the house. Gan Qiongying squeezed his hand and said with some force, "There will be plenty of opportunities to spend time with them in the future. Let's go eat first!"

Li Hua nodded. He knew that Gan Qiongying hoped he could get rid of this...abnormal state as soon as possible.

Li Hua had already heard Bu Li talk about his previous symptoms, saying that if he continued to let himself get stuck in a rut and did not restrain himself, he might one day become mentally unstable.

Gan Qiongying took Li Hua to eat a vegetarian meal, and after the meal, the two of them strolled around the temple. Li Hua chatted happily with the plump, Buddha-like Guanghua, and in the short time it took to exchange a few words, Li Hua donated another temple.

Gan Qiongying felt a pang of jealousy, but Li Hua was now a man with a mountain of gold, so what was a temple?

However, on the way back, Gan Qiongying still said somewhat sourly, "Building a temple costs a lot of money. His Highness the Crown Prince is really generous..."

"I wish I could sculpt a golden statue of a living Buddha for him."

Li Hua held Gan Qiongying's hand and walked slowly along the path.

His voice was soft and gentle, like a gentle swirling snowflake, rushing towards Gan Qiongying.

“He took you in at that time, and I am very grateful to him.”

Light snow began to fall again, but this winter didn't seem cold at all. Gan Qiongying even felt like she was sweating profusely, especially since their hands, clasped together, were soaked with sweat.

Hearing such heartwarming words, Gan Qiongying's lips curled up slightly, and she said softly as if complaining, "You should use this kind of thought on me more often in the future. I'm the one who really needs affection."

"I am so lacking in financial comfort, my husband, when will you be able to give me back the two hundred thousand taels I owe you every month?"

Li Hua couldn't help but chuckle, pursing his lips as he glanced at the pure white expanse, his handsome features so striking they seemed to be part of a painting amidst the snowy mountain scenery.

He took a deep breath and said, "The little bundle I gave you today, the one you put your clothes in after you go inside, is full of silver notes."

Gan Qiongying's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Li Hua continued, "From the time you left me until we returned to these mountains, it has been exactly one year. Two hundred thousand taels per month, totaling two million four hundred thousand taels, are all contained within. I would appreciate it if Your Highness could personally review it upon your return later."

Gan Qiongying jumped up on the spot, circled around Li Hua like a puppy playing, then hugged Li Hua's neck, found a piece of dead wood to step on, and started kissing Li Hua's face haphazardly like a chick pecking at rice.

"I knew you were the best! I knew you loved me the most! I really love you so much!"

Li Hua was particularly prone to jealousy, but ever since he learned that Gan Qiongying liked his money, he had never been jealous of it. Because Li Hua had plenty of it; it was the easiest thing for him to possess and the easiest thing he could give away.

Gan Qiongying pulled Li Hua along, running wobbly through the snow, as if they were performing a dance unique to them.

Gan Qiongying was covered in sweat from running and started thinking about what to buy before the heavy snow blocked the mountain. Just thinking about it made her realize there was a whole bunch of things she needed to buy!

Although Li Hua had prepared everything, shopping itself brings an irresistible sense of happiness. Especially when your wallet is bulging, even just strolling around without buying anything is incredibly enjoyable.

However, this joy lasted until the two were almost back in the house when Gan Qiongying suddenly stopped, revealing a conflicted expression.

"What should I do? I love you so much and want to hug you," Gan Qiongying said. "I need more than just money; I need yours too."

“But it seems impossible to stay at home… The children are so young, and I’m reluctant to let them live with their wet nurses, as I haven’t seen them in so long. There’s no separate place in this little courtyard… The wet nurses live next door, and they come over whenever the children are hungry at night.”

Gan Qiongying shook Li Hua's arm, pouting slightly, and said, "Does this mean we have to brave the heavy snow to go down the mountain and stay at an inn in this winter?"

Upon hearing this, Li Hua sighed softly, her ears turning red as she stood still and turned to look at Gan Qiongying.

As the fine snowflakes danced in the air, they stood amidst the swirling snow, their breaths condensing into white mist, as if they had attained immortality.

What a perfect couple!

However, this divine couple spoke in mundane and commonplace language.

"What should we do? In about a month, the mountains will be blocked by heavy snow, and we won't be able to get down at all. Temples are sacred Buddhist sites, and we can't just do whatever we want in the snow..."

Li Hua, unable to bear it any longer, stepped forward and covered Gan Qiongying's mouth.

He swallowed hard, his deep gaze meeting Gan Qiongying's phoenix eyes, which were smiling like two crescent moons.

He said indulgently and dotingly, "I can find someone to clear the snow. You can come down the mountain whenever you want."

Gan Qiongying pried Li Hua's hand away: "But once it gets to the end of November, it snows heavily all day long in the Northwest, how can we possibly clear the snow..."

“If it can be removed, or I’ll have someone rebuild a house halfway up the mountain in a few days. When we went up the mountain together, I saw a place where steam was rising. There should be a warm spring there that can be drawn down from the top of the mountain.”

"That's a massive project. How can it be completed when the heavy snow is about to start?"

Li Hua wrapped her arm around Gan Qiongying's shoulder, covered her mouth, and dragged her away while whispering in her ear, "Your Highness, don't worry, I can definitely make you... make you get what you want!"

No matter how much time has passed, Li Hua is still ashamed to discuss intimate matters between the two of them in broad daylight and in public... well, even though it's deep in the mountains.

But he also really liked Gan Qiongying's straightforwardness; he liked being desired by his partner in this way, which was the most steadfast affirmation for him.

In short, it's the best way to prove his masculinity!

It's just building a house halfway up the mountain. Li Hua has so many guards lying in ambush everywhere with nothing to do. Besides, there's very little that can't be done with enough money in this world...

Gan Qiongying was being held by Li Hua, almost hanging on him. Seeing that he could walk on his own two legs just like a normal person, she couldn't help but recall the first time the two of them met.

At that time, one of them was a princess who had been resurrected in another's body, walking cautiously and with great difficulty, while the other was a Jinchuan spy who had changed his appearance and changed his name to infiltrate Nanzhao.

One is a lonely soul gazing at the unfamiliar world from afar; the other is a solitary traveler born as a cursed star, never willing to open his heart.

A wondrous fate that transcends space and worlds has brought them together, allowing them to stumble and fall together to this day. They have each other, and for each other, they have the most complete world.

Gan Qiongying grabbed Li Hua's neck and kept pulling him down instead of walking properly. Sure enough, Li Hua slipped and the two of them tumbled into the snowdrift.

Soon Gan Qiongying sat up, straddled Li Hua's waist, grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into his clothes.

Li Hua was finally forced to cry out by the cold. Her voice was full of laughter, bright and clear, without a trace of gloom. It echoed in the empty mountains, like the most beautiful fairy music in the world.

It is as white as snow on the mountain, and as bright as the moon on earth.

Love in this world is just like this, just like them at this moment.
