As the car door opened, cold wind blowing snowflakes blew in Jiang Yue's face, and she shivered.
"Come up!" Gu Ye handed Jiang Yue an umbrella and turned his back to her.
Jiang Yue opened the umbrella and lay on Gu Ye's back. The snow on the ground was already very thick. Gu Ye was wearing military boots, and when he stepped on the ground, the snow did not reach above his ankles.
Returning home on a snowy night, Gu Ye walked steadily with Jiang Yue on his back. Jiang Yue held the umbrella open to block the snowflakes carried by the cold wind.
But Jiang Yue still saw snowflakes falling on Gu Ye's eyebrows and eyes. She blew a breath towards his eyebrows and eyes, and the snowflakes melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Gu Ye glanced sideways at Jiang Yue and smiled. In the vast white world, one could see his gentle features, white teeth, and bright smile. There was only Jiang Yue in his eyes and heart.
Jiang Yue kissed Gu Ye on the cheek again, "Gu Ye, I love you!"
Now the smile on Gu Ye's mouth became even brighter.
When the two returned home, the door of the courtyard had been blocked by snow. The yard was also covered with thick snow, and the osmanthus trees had turned silver-white.
Jiang Yue is looking forward to the snow scene tomorrow morning, it must be beautiful!
"Why are your hands so cold?" After entering the house, Gu Ye put Jiang Yue down. He touched Jiang Yue's cold hands and rubbed them both to warm them up.
Jiang Yue looked up at Gu Ye. She was almost frozen into an ice cube, but his palms were still so warm. His handsome eyebrows were drooping and his long eyelashes were wet. It was the moisture left after the snowflakes that had just fallen on his eyes and melted.
The two were very close, so close that their breaths blended together, and they smelled each other's scent.
Jiang Yue liked the fresh smell of bamboo and cedar on Gu Ye's body. She stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Ye, then said with a smile, "Go and clean up. I'll go make noodles!"
"Okay!" Gu Ye put his arms around Jiang Yue's waist, kissed her pink lips, and tasted her for a while before reluctantly letting go.
"Please cook more noodles! I'm starving!" Gu Ye stroked Jiang Yue's cheek, looked at her watery eyes, and felt very happy in his heart.
"I know!" Jiang Yue responded with a smile.
They had lunch at about noon. Although they had brought some biscuits to satisfy their hunger on the way, it was too cold in the car and the biscuits were hard. Now Jiang Yue was hungry and cold and just wanted to eat something hot.
When getting off the car just now, Gu Ye insisted on sending Jiang Yue back first. Now they had to move the two boxes of small yellow croakers back at night when no one was around. Otherwise, if they moved them during the day tomorrow, people would see them and ask all sorts of questions, and spread gossip.
Jiang Yuemu saw Gu Ye out, took off her down jacket, wiped it with a towel, and hung it up.
She changed into the small padded jacket she wore at home, and took off her cotton-padded shoes. Actually, the shoes were quite warm, but her feet were so cold because she didn't move during the ride.
At this time, Jiang Yue could hardly feel her feet when she took off her shoes. They were really frozen into ice.
Jiang Yue had previously asked Mrs. Zhao to help her make a pair of old cotton shoes. Although they didn't look fashionable, they were very comfortable to wear at home.
After changing into home clothes and feeling much more relaxed, Jiang Yue went into the kitchen and started to light a fire and boil water. The firewood in the stove started burning, and the flames dispelled the cold. After a while, the water in the pot boiled.
Jiang Yue took out some noodles and put them in. Gu Ye liked to eat noodles with meat sauce, but it was too late now, so Jiang Yue simply made some noodles with scallion oil.
When Gu Ye came back carrying two boxes, he smelled the aroma of scallion oil as soon as he entered the door.
"Let's eat noodles first!" Jiang Yue watched Gu Ye put the box on the table and handed him chopsticks.
Even though there were only three kilograms of gold in the two boxes, gold is much heavier than ordinary things. Gu Ye walked back in the deep snow, with one step shallow and one step deep. His eyes and eyebrows were covered with snowflakes, and he couldn't tell whether the snow on his head was sweat or water from melted snowflakes.
Jiang Yue only ate a small bowl. Although she was hungry, she had to go to bed soon and was afraid that she would not be able to digest the food.
Gu Ye ate the entire bowl of noodles, and he only managed to fill his stomach.
The snow was still falling outside. Gu Ye and Jiang Yue put the two boxes of small yellow croakers into the bottom of the big wardrobe, together with the dozen or so small yellow croakers they had previously caught.
Jiang Yue couldn't help but feel a little worried, "We have so many good things in our house. If a thief breaks in, the loss will be huge!"
"Which thief dares to come to the army to steal things?" Gu Ye laughed at Jiang Yue.
"Not necessarily. What if it's a thief?" Jiang Yue was waiting for the water to boil so that she could wash her face and feet. Now that she was full and warm, she chatted with Gu Ye.
"It's not impossible!" Hearing this, Gu Ye raised his eyebrows. Jiang Yue's words reminded him that the division headquarters is so large that it cannot be guaranteed that everyone has a noble character. The family compound alone is a small society with all kinds of people.
They are going on a long trip next week and the house will be empty. If a thief breaks in, it will be hard to guard against.
The main reason is that they have too many good things at home now. Just one small yellow croaker is enough for an ordinary family to eat for several months.
"I'll find a way!" Gu Ye tapped Jiang Yue's nose and sighed, "Who told me my wife has such good fortune!"
Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes and smiled. In fact, she knew that it was not her good fortune, but Gu Ye's luck, so all these good things happened to them.
Soon, the water boiled. Jiang Yue added some water and went into the room to wash. When she came out, Gu Ye had already prepared hot water and told her to soak her feet.
There was heavy snow outside the door. Jiang Yue held Gu Ye's arm, whispered to him, and kissed him from time to time.
Looking out the window, under the dim light, there are two beautiful silhouettes leaning against each other projected on the window.
Being too tired today, even Gu Ye had no other thoughts. After going to bed, Jiang Yue found a comfortable position in his arms, hugged Gu Ye's waist, and soon fell asleep.
Gu Ye looked at the beautiful sleeping face of his young wife in his arms, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he felt a full sense of satisfaction in his heart. He also closed his eyes.
Heavy snow fell all night. The next morning, when Jiang Yue got up, Gu Ye had indeed gone out.
She saw a note left by Gu Ye on the bedside, telling her that he had gone to shovel snow.
Jiang Yue walked to the window and looked out. A path had been shoveled out in the yard outside, and a small snowdrift had formed near the gate.
Jiang Yue put on a thick cotton-padded jacket and went out for a walk. The snow had stopped and it wasn't cold, but everywhere she looked, the world was covered in white, which made her feel cold visually.
It would be unreasonable not to build a snowman with such heavy snow. Seeing that it was getting late, Jiang Yue opened the door and prepared to go to Mrs. Zhao's house to pick up Ningning.
They came home too late last night and didn't take Ningning home. As soon as Jiang Yue opened the gate, she heard Ningning's childish voice.
"Mom, come out and make a snowman!"
Jiang Yue saw Ningning wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket. She was as round as a little fat ball, with a pair of gloves tied with a rope hanging around her neck. She and Zhao Yuanqi were shoveling snow with a small shovel.
Today happens to be Sunday, and all the children in the compound don't have to go to school. They all got up early in the morning and were busy making snowmen.
Jiang Yue naturally wanted to join in on such an interesting thing.
"Let's have a snowman-making competition, and then we'll vote to see who makes the most distinctive and best-looking snowman. The top three will get prizes!" Jiang Yue shouted to the children in the family compound. In an instant, the children, both big and small, were shoveling snow and rolling snowballs.
