The hot spring resort is over a hundred miles from Kyoto, nestled in a valley surrounded by mountains, lush with verdant pines and cypresses. As you head towards the center of the valley, the temperature rises, and the expanses of green bamboo and flowers stand out against the backdrop of winter.
The area of Zhuangzi is about one hundred acres, consisting of an open-air hot spring and three indoor hot springs, surrounded by light mist, like a fairyland.
After seeing the surrounding scenery, even Xiao Lang, Xiao Yi, Xiao Yang and others who came to see them off fell in love with this place. It was simply a paradise on earth!
After helping the two sisters settle everything, Xiao Yi and Xiao Yang placed some of their favorite gadgets and books on the small table next to her bed. They also repeatedly reminded her not to eat cold food, not to play too much, and not to open the window at night... Xiao Yao nodded in agreement.
Looking at his second brother and third brother, Xiao Yuan really hoped that his biological brother Xiao Rui would also be gentle and caring towards him. However, as far as he could see, Xiao Yuan looked for his brother several times but couldn't find him.
Xiao Yao gently pushed her second brother, signaling him to look at Xiao Yuan's frustrated and lonely look. Xiao Yi understood and rubbed his sister's head. This sister of his! When she was naughty, he really wanted to pull her over and spank her a few times, but when she was sensible, he could not help but feel distressed.
Xiao Yang seemed not to notice the interaction between the two. He just sorted Xiao Yao's things for her, placing her most frequently used and favorite things where she could reach them, and carefully classified the paper and pens so that she would be able to see them at a glance when she needed them.
"Third brother, thank you." Xiao Yao hugged her third brother's arm with emotion. Her third brother might be indifferent and uncaring to others, but he was attentive and considerate to her sister. Except for being pedantic occasionally, he was so good that there was nothing to say.
Xiao Yang bent down and hugged his sister. He knew that he loved her very much, no matter what she was like. He might not know how to express passionate feelings like others, nor how to make his sister happy, but he knew that his sister would not despise him. Even if they were not together day and night, the relationship between brother and sister was no less than that of others.
After Xiao Yi comforted Xiao Yuan, he felt that his mission as brothers was accomplished. It was not until the servants came looking for him for the third time that Xiao Rui hurried over to reunite with everyone.
"Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother, this place is so nice, can I..."
"No." Xiao Lang and Xiao Yi interrupted him together. Ping An came here to take a hot spring bath to treat his illness. Wouldn't it be inconvenient to have a boy here? What's more, today is a day off. He has come since he came. If he continues to stay here, does that mean he won't study anymore?
"I knew this would be the result." Xiao Rui muttered unconvinced.
It's unnecessary to ask even though you know the result will be like this.
"You should go back soon, or I will write a letter to my mother to complain about you." What are you staying for? Are you here to take care of me? Or do I have to worry about you getting into trouble all day long?
Xiao Jun approached Xiao Yao again, took her hand and said reluctantly: "Sister, I will come to see you again in a few days. Remember to think of me, don't forget me."
"Remember, go back quickly." Xiao Yao smiled and pushed her fifth brother. She and this brother were twins, a boy and a girl. Although they did not look alike, they had a very good relationship. The longest time they were apart from each other was when they were on vacation.
Xiao Yuan was envious and jealous. His sister had three brothers, and each of them was very kind to her. He only had one biological brother, but he was not as attentive as his cousin. Why was he so miserable?
After exploring several hot springs, Nanny Ruan returned to her room. For two consecutive days, Mr. Zhao taught Xiao Yao and Xiao Yuan, but there was no sign of Nanny Ruan.
The two sisters also took the opportunity to tour the villa. Xiao Yuan was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, and would not return to the room until it was completely dark.
On the third day, Nanny Ruan took Xiao Yao's hand and brought some medicinal herbs and walked into an indoor hot spring. Medicinal baths and hot spring baths have many benefits for physical recovery.
Xiao Yuan was worried about her sister and wanted to go with her, but was ruthlessly rejected by Nanny Ruan. The obedient girl remembered her grandmother's words before she came: "Your sister is not in good health and needs to take a medicinal bath alone, so you must listen to Nanny Ruan." Looking at the direction where her sister disappeared, Xiao Yuan had no choice but to leave alone.
Fortunately, except for the time when they were taking the medicinal bath, the two sisters still studied, ate and played together. Xiao Yuan gradually stopped feeling uncomfortable and gradually accepted this arrangement after a few days.
Six days after arriving at the hot spring villa, the sisters welcomed their first visitor, Xiao Jingyan. Xiao Yuan was very surprised by the visit of her fourth uncle. Xiao Yao took one look at her fourth uncle's tangled brow and knew that this person must be here to complain to her.
"Ping'an, do you miss your fourth uncle? I'm thinking about you all the time. How about that? That's pretty good, isn't it?"
Pretend, I let you pretend, let's see how long you can pretend. Xiao Yao half-lay on the table, head resting on her arm, quietly looking at Xiao Jingyan, if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either, to see who can't bear it first.
"Okay, okay, you're becoming less and less lovable. Ruyi, go play with the little maid for a while while I talk to your sister."
Why?! Nanny Ruan didn't allow him to follow his sister, and now even his fourth uncle excluded him. Xiao Yuan was really a little sad.
Xiao Yao whispered something in her ear, and the chubby little girl's eyes lit up instantly, as if she was not the one who was sad and upset just now, and she turned and ran away.
"You are quite resourceful. Tell me how you tricked Ruyi away." Xiao Jingyan put his own questions aside for the time being and inquired about the little secrets between the sisters with great interest.
It seems that things are not yet at a critical point, because Fourth Uncle is still in the mood for some fun!
Xiao Yao didn't come up with any good ideas. The two sisters happened to see a few butterflies yesterday. With the help of the maid, they each caught three.
Xiao Yuan's cats were tortured to death by her last night, so she has been coveting her own share. In order to listen to your complaints, I can only make a selfless contribution!
"I've had a bad feeling recently. It's been almost two months since your grandfather's birthday, and Miss Yu seems to have suddenly disappeared. It's really worrying!" Fourth Uncle, what you said can easily be misunderstood. Do you know that if others hear it, they might think that you two have a close relationship, or even are lovers!
Poor Fourth Uncle, he must be driven crazy by Miss Yu! Miss Yu was chasing him relentlessly, which annoyed Fourth Uncle; now Miss Yu suddenly changed her attitude, which annoyed Fourth Uncle even more.
"Do you think she will suddenly come to her senses and give up this idea? It doesn't seem likely. Otherwise, she may have some conspiracy and might take action one day." Xiao Jingyan couldn't help but feel a chill. He had been troubled by Yu Xianrong's affairs for a long time. He was a person who couldn't keep secrets, so he was eager to find someone to tell. When this idea came to his mind, the first person he thought of was his little niece Ping An.
Somehow he felt that his niece could understand what he meant, and even if she couldn't give any good suggestions, she would be a good listener.
"How about finding someone to charm her? Maybe she'll change her target!"
If you want to use the beauty trap to attract a man, who else can be more suitable than you unless you do it yourself?
Xiao Yao raised her head and shook it. Yu Xianrong had been pursuing her fourth uncle for five or six years and would never give up easily. Besides, who would be willing to seduce a handsome man with status and position? Those who only had good looks probably wouldn't catch Yu Xianrong's eye.
"Is this idea not good? This is the only way I can think of so far. Let me go back and think about it. By the way, you have a lot of ideas. Help your fourth uncle think of a solution. I'll go back first." After Xiao Jingyan finished speaking, he left in a hurry without giving Xiao Yao time to say a word.
What do you mean by "I have so many tricks up my sleeve"? "Does Fourth Uncle ever ask for favors like you do?" Xiao Yao was so angry that she didn't know how to react.
