It is cold in winter and the ground is covered with snow.
The old lady of the Zhao family was kind-hearted. When she woke up early in the morning and saw that it was still snowing, she stopped the servants who were preparing to sweep the snow and asked them to go into the house to warm themselves first. It would not be too late to sweep the snow after the snow stopped.
As a result, a thick layer of snow accumulated in the courtyard of the wealthy Zhao family.
Outside, the wind was howling coldly and not even a single person could be seen. However, in the warm room where Miss Zhao lived, it was as warm as spring and very lively.
The young lady stayed in bed and refused to take her medicine on time, so the old lady came to wake her up. Fearing that she would be unwilling, she still brought some delicious food.
"Huanhuan, do you smell any fragrance?" the old lady asked, touching her granddaughter's head.
Yu Huan sniffed like a puppy, then suddenly opened his eyes: "Green Plum Pastry."
The little girl's behavior was so cute and adorable that the maids in the room burst into laughter, and the old lady also laughed so hard that her face was wrinkled.
After a while, there was no movement again.
The young lady, who had just opened her eyes, now curled up in a ball, holding the warm hot water bottle, and fell asleep on the old lady's lap.
?
Yu Huan doesn't have many roles in this world.
In the script, the hero Ji Wenxu's family fell into poverty. He studied hard and won the top spot in the imperial examination at the age of twenty. He was chosen by the Shen family in the capital to be their son-in-law and was engaged to the heroine Shen Leyang.
After that, he made rapid progress and became the prime minister, second only to the emperor.
The male protagonist met Yu Huan, the young lady of the Zhao family, when he was studying at the Zhao family.
She was a spoiled girl, and she was not happy about having an outsider living in her house. Since the outsider was of low status, she found ways to bully him.
Later, when she reached the age of falling in love for the first time, she saw that although Ji Wenxu had a dull personality, he had a handsome face like ice sculpture and jade, and she began to have girlish thoughts again.
It’s a pity that Ji Wenxu was not interested in this and left the Zhao family when the time for the spring examination came.
However, her health was not good to begin with, and she passed away quietly not long after.
?
Just as Old Lady Zhao coaxed the little ancestor to take the medicine, someone from outside came to report that the master had returned with the child from the Ji family.
Mr. Zhao walked into the house holding Ji Wenxu's hand and asked the servants, "Is the old lady here?"
"The old lady is entertaining the young lady in the warm room." replied the little maid.
They are all there, so I might as well meet them all at once.
Mr. Zhao had been very attentive to Ji Wenxu the entire way, but at this moment he paused and said, "Everything else is fine, but there is one thing: my daughter is frail and has a spoiled temper."
"If I have let you down in any way, please bear with me. If you have any problem, please come to me."
"Don't worry, uncle." The boy replied.
The snow was still falling. When he reached the door, Mr. Zhao was not in a hurry to go in. Instead, he closed the wall of the warm room and explained:
"My daughter is weak and can't stand the cold. Look at her. She can't even leave the house in winter, and has to eat extremely bitter medicine every meal. How pitiful..."
Ji Wenxu followed suit and posted it on the wall.
After both of them were warmed by the warmth that permeated the room, they lifted the heavy curtain and went into the room.
"Mother, my son is back. This is the young master of Ji Zhengan's family..." Master Zhao bowed forward.
"You're coming back from traveling in such a cold weather. Are you frozen? Come here and let me take a look at you." The old lady said with a kind face.
Ji Wenxu stepped forward and said respectfully, "Ji Wenxu, I'm honored to meet you, old lady."
Yu Huan opened his eyes sleepily.
The male protagonist who will become a high-ranking official in the future, is still a teenager at this moment, with a thin figure, black hair tied with a plain headband, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. He originally has an outspoken and upright appearance, but perhaps because of family reasons, he has become a little introverted.
"He looks like a good boy..." The old lady patted Ji Wenxu's hand and told him not to be polite when he lived with her in the future.
Yu Huan was watching with her chin in her hand when she was suddenly poked by Master Zhao, and then a warm and delicate jade pendant was stuffed into her hand.
The finest mutton-fat jade is beautifully carved and polished, with a beaded pattern on the outer circle and, most importantly, a fish carved through the inside.
"Xiao Yu?" Yu Huan picked up the jade pendant in surprise and looked at it.
Mr. Zhao lowered his voice and said to her proudly, "This jade pendant is nothing special, but the fish pattern is eye-catching. The moment I saw it, I knew Huanhuan would like it."
Mr. Zhao patted his body and said proudly: "Your father bought it back for you."
"Daddy is so nice." Yu Huan knew that this was his father asking for praise, and his little mouth was as if smeared with honey, and he praised his father with all kinds of good things, which made his father lose his mind.
They were having a lively time here, but the sound over there suddenly became silent.
Yu Huan turned around in confusion.
The old man and the young boy had the same expression as each other, watching the father and daughter playing with great interest.
Yu Huan blinked.
The old lady finally woke up from her happy state and hugged her to meet Ji Wenxu: "This is your uncle's daughter. She is two months older than you. You should call her sister."
"Hello, sister." Ji Wenxu lowered his head again. The boy's voice was clean, mellow, and a little cold like snow.
"The bullying Miss Zhao is coming online!" the system shouted for her.
"Yeah." Yu Huan nodded perfunctorily and asked Mrs. Zhao, "When is breakfast? I'm hungry."
Now you know, she doesn't really welcome him.
Everyone present could see it, but the scale in their hearts would naturally lean towards the one they truly loved. The old lady tapped her forehead and said, "How strange! You still feel hungry sometimes."
He added, "It's freezing outside, why don't you all stay here and have a meal? It will be more lively for us."
So they all stayed.
