The handwriting on the letter was very free and easy, and every stroke revealed Yu'er's joy.
She looked at the letter and smiled foolishly.
Zhou Ruiyuan brought over a cup of hot tea. Seeing the smile on her face, he asked, "Is it a letter from Yu'er?"
Du Wanchun handed him the letter. "That's right, he has already gone to Ruan County to bring that girl back to the capital."
Zhou Ruiyuan gently placed the teacup in front of her. "That's good. Now you can rest assured."
"Of course." Du Wanchun picked up the embroidery piece beside her and examined it again and again.
“I was a little worried about Yu’er being alone in the capital before, but now that he has someone he likes by his side, it’s definitely a good thing.”
As she spoke, she placed the shoes meant for Mianmian aside, then picked up her own handkerchief and put it in her bosom.
Just then, a cool breeze blew by, and Du Wanchun sneezed loudly.
Zhou Ruiyuan grew anxious and took out a handkerchief to wipe her face. "Wanchun, what's wrong? Did you catch a cold?"
Du Wanchun wiped her nose. "It was indeed a bit cold yesterday, but it's nothing. I'll take some medicine later."
Since she has aged like everyone else, she is no longer as healthy as she used to be, and she occasionally catches a cold when the weather turns cool.
Zhou Ruiyuan gradually understood what Du Wanchun's mother meant, so now he takes even better care of Du Wanchun.
Du Wanchun, on the contrary, felt a little uncomfortable. She now had two great doctors in her family, so this minor illness was no problem. It was just that Zhou Ruiyuan was a bit nervous.
Zhou Ruiyuan got up and covered her with the cotton cloak, then went to get some charcoal and lit the stove in the room.
"Winter came a little too soon this year. I'll take you to the hot springs in Xishan tomorrow."
As he spoke, he added charcoal to the stove.
Du Wanchun picked up a handkerchief and wiped his face. "Alright, we'll take her and Qing'er to stay in Xishan for a while in a few days."
Zhou Ruiyuan grasped her hand, "Don't bring the two of them."
Du Wanchun smiled: "Are you afraid of disturbing the newlyweds?"
Zhou Ruiyuan took her hand and pulled her into his arms. "Of course not, I was just afraid they would disturb us."
Du Wanchun chuckled, "Alright, then we won't take them."
After the two of them agreed on the plan and packed their things, they set off for Xishan.
Xishan is located south of Changliu Village. It takes a day and a night to reach it by horse-drawn carriage.
Two years ago, Zhou Ruiyuan built a small villa here. The courtyard is not big, but it is enough for the two of them to soak in the hot springs and stay for a while.
Du Wanchun got off the carriage and walked inside, where she saw wisps of white smoke rising from the courtyard.
There is a large hot spring pool inside.
She smiled, untied her cloak, and walked inside, saying, "This place is wonderful."
Zhou Ruiyuan looked at her with a doting expression, "I knew you would like it."
As he spoke, he picked up the cloak that Du Wanchun had just dropped and slowly walked inside. "There's also a large hot spring inside. You can soak in it if you want."
"Don't worry, there's no one around this hill."
Du Wanchun hesitated for a moment. She originally wanted to soak in the water, but as soon as she stepped inside, she noticed that snowflakes were falling outside.
She slowly walked to the eaves and reached out to catch the white snowflakes.
The snowflakes slowly melted in her palm. When she looked up again, the snow was falling heavier and heavier, and the entire mountain was immediately covered in silver, looking like a fairyland.
Du Wanchun slowly walked into the courtyard, looked around, and smiled, "Let's stay outside."
Zhou Ruiyuan opened his umbrella and came to her side. "Okay, let's soak outside then."
This small courtyard is very private, surrounded by bamboo groves.
There is a wall outside the bamboo forest, and there are guards outside the wall.
Du Wanchun, dressed in a thin gauze, slowly sat down in the hot spring.
Zhou Ruiyuan followed closely behind her. The two soaked in the hot spring, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the mountains and forests.
Du Wanchun leaned on his shoulder and gradually became sleepy.
"Wanchun, are you asleep?" Zhou Ruiyuan asked, hugging her from behind.
Du Wanchun lazily responded softly, "Mmm..."
Zhou Ruiyuan didn't call her again, but just held her quietly.
Let her continue sleeping.
When she had soaked for a while, he picked her up and carried her to the bed, where he changed her clothes.
Du Wanchun was very sleepy and did not wake up the whole time.
Zhou Ruiyuan stayed by her side, as if seeing her every day made him happy.
As the morning light shone in the early morning, Zhou Ruiyuan personally cooked for Du Wanchun, preparing all her favorite dishes.
Amidst the lush green woods, Zhou Ruiyuan, sleeves rolled up, was cooking.
In the cool breeze, Du Wanchun felt an incomparably comforting and peaceful feeling.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Ruiyuan brought the prepared dishes to her. "Wanchun, come and eat."
Du Wanchun snapped out of her daze and took two steps forward.
Zhou Ruiyuan helped her sit down in a chair, "Try it!"
