Chapter 310 Taking the First Step to Becoming the Eldest Sister
The tenth day of the month.
Yushui City.
End of Shen Shi (3-5 PM).
Braving the heavy snowfall, the carriage carrying Chu Qinghe and the others finally stopped in front of the courtyard gate.
After days of snow accumulation, the courtyard was now almost entirely covered with a layer of snow.
Even the plants in the yard, thanks to the Fiery Soil, still stood proudly amidst the heavy snowfall, even though they were covered in snow.
Back in the courtyard, looking at the familiar courtyard where camellia trees were still in full bloom, everyone breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason.
As Jellyfish Yin Ji stepped into the courtyard, she too unconsciously took a few extra breaths, her body and mind relaxing.
Xiao Zhao let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Finally back!"
Qu Feiyan, standing to the side, said weakly, "Yes! I'm not going out anytime soon."
Hearing Qu Feiyan's words, Chu Qinghe unconsciously glanced at Qu Feiyan with disdain.
Clearly, Chu Qinghe found Qu Feiyan's statement utterly unbelievable.
Then, Chu Qinghe said, "Don't just stand there, it'll be dark soon if we don't hurry."
Upon hearing the sound, the women forgot their exclamations and quickly moved their belongings into the yard before starting to tidy it up.
After the women had cleaned up the stone table, Chu Qinghe sat down at it to brew tea and enjoy the snow.
Hua Hua, who was probably seeing snow for the first time, ran straight into the yard and scurried around in the snow.
Looking at the little guy from time to time, then at the girls beside him, and then at the snow falling in the courtyard, and listening to the faint sound of firecrackers coming from the street outside, Chu Qinghe couldn't help but smile.
.........
Evening, in the backyard.
At this moment, the surface of the pool was already shrouded in billowing steam.
As Chu Qinghe poured the entire jar of wine into the pool, amidst the billowing smoke, a fragrance reminiscent of orchids and musk began to rise and linger from the mist.
A moment later, as the group entered the pool one after another, the warm water enveloped their bodies. The gentle swaying of the water, with its soft, propelling force, made them feel as if every pore on their bodies was open, and expressions of comfort and enjoyment appeared on their faces.
Let alone Qu Feiyan and Lianxing and the other girls.
Even Chu Qinghe and the jellyfish Yin Ji beside him couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief from the comfortable feeling.
"Sure enough, the bath at my brother-in-law's house is the most comfortable!"
Although they took a bath every night while staying at the inn during their trip.
But compared to taking a bath in a wooden tub indoors, nothing is as comfortable as taking an open-air bath in the pool at home.
A gentle breeze occasionally blows by, which not only prevents people from feeling stuffy, but the cool sensation can even relieve some of the heat.
Then, with their eyes lightly closed, Chu Qinghe and Shui Mu Yin Ji and the others allowed their bodies to rise and fall gently under the buoyancy of the pool.
Beside the pool, Hua Hua's pearl-like eyes glanced at Chu Qinghe, then back at the pool.
After taking a few sniffs, it suddenly leaped from the edge of the pool into it.
However, the little guy had clearly never been in the pool before.
The moment it splashed into the pool, the little guy began to thrash its limbs with all its might.
In response, Chu Qinghe lightly raised one hand and then used his true energy to condense a special force to pull the little guy out of the water and bring him to his side.
Perhaps it was because she was certain that her body wouldn't sink, or perhaps it was the sense of security that Chu Qinghe provided beside her.
After paddling its limbs a few times in the water to make sure it was safe, the little guy, now completely soaked, relaxed.
Subsequently, enveloped in the pool of water, the little guy clearly felt a unique experience, gradually calming down as he soaked in the water.
And so, the six people and the panda quietly soaked in the pool amidst the heavy snowfall.
Only when the water flowing into the pool stopped did Chu Qinghe slowly open his eyes, then let out a long breath and get up from the pool.
As Chu Qinghe got up and used his true energy to drain the moisture from his body, he also used his true energy to create streams of energy to dry all the fur on the little guy's body.
However, seeing Chu Qinghe leave the pool, Lianxing's eyes lit up, and she also got out of the pool.
After changing into clean and tidy clothes, Lianxing looked towards Shuimu Yinji.
After their eyes met, both women raised their eyebrows slightly and then revealed a knowing smile.
When the women returned to the inner courtyard, Chu Qinghe was already sitting at a stone table surrounded by several stoves, drinking wine that had been warmed earlier.
After the women sat down together, and after a few cups of fine wine, enjoying the lingering fragrance in their mouths, and looking at the snow falling in the courtyard, Qu Feiyan, Xiao Zhao, and Lin Shiyin all felt a sense of peace and tranquility in their hearts.
That's just how people are.
The more you experience, the more you realize how hard-won some things are.
The longer Qu Feiyan and the other two women stayed by Chu Qinghe's side and witnessed the conflicts and battles of the world, the more they realized how precious their daily lives were.
A moment later, after Lianxing picked up the wine pot and gently shook it, she was delighted to find the wine was fine. However, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she muttered to herself as usual and got up to walk into the wine room.
