The light rain in March kept falling, and the remaining petals of the peach blossom swayed feebly among the broken jade that fell from the sky.

Ji Shuiyue stood with her hands behind her back, looking at the poetic ink splashes in the sky, her eyes were filled with disappointment.

Yesterday, she finally gave up the stalemate and made a bet in her heart. If Chi Xue was willing to come to form an alliance today, she would win. If Chi Xue still refused to come, she would give up the land in her hands to Chi Xue.

But now, the sky is approaching dusk, if you want to visit the door, it is impossible to choose after dark...

Could it be that she is destined not to be able to form an alliance with Chi Xue?

The more she thought about it, the more anxious Ji Shuiyue became.

As one of the main forces of the second prince's faction, Chi Xue should be obediently squatting in the imperial city, waiting for the second prince to return.

Unexpectedly, she lived here comfortably and happily.

Looking at the chaotic raindrops outside the window, Ji Shuiyue clenched her fists slowly.

Wait, wait, wait...

……

Time passed bit by bit.

Yan Po in the backyard had already put on the saddle, sat sideways on the crossbar of the carriage, gently rolled his eyes, and waited patiently.

The afterglow of the evening was scattered in the light rain, and the halo of haze spread on the foggy sky, like a piece of yellowed rice paper, which made her feel a little unhappy.

After all, Ji Shuiyue pushed open the carved sandalwood door, opened the snow-treading red plum oiled paper umbrella in her hand, and put the thin wooden handle on her collarbone.

She walked step by step, stepping on the water with her heavy slender feet, dizzying circles of ripples.

Everything was quiet, so quiet that it made her a little angry.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps, and the splash of water made the peach blossom tremble.

Ji Shuiyue lifted the red umbrella slightly, under the ethereal red veil, her eyes were slightly displeased.

She's in a bad mood right now.

"What's so alarming."

The girl in charge lowered the umbrella in her hand and bowed humbly: "Miss Ye, Miss Chi is here."

For a moment, the umbrella in Ji Shuiyue's hand almost fell over, she was stunned for a moment, and then, her delicate and flowery lips slowly evoked a smile.

"Housekeeper, go to the backyard and tell Mr. Yan: Our second chance has come."

After all, she flicked her sleeves, and her light steps were like beautiful peach blossoms swirling on the surface of a mirror lake.

Staring into the distance, the blood-red eyes are full of confidence.

……

Chi Xue came here alone this time.

It was still the same plain, foreign-style long gown, but there were some water stains on the corners of the clothes. Although it was small, she could see Chi Xue's haste.

She closed her eyes and smiled, put away the red umbrella, and her soft voice sounded slowly in the hall.

"Lord Chixue, I haven't seen you for a few days, it's really very memorable."

Chi Xue looked at Ji Shuiyue with a pair of calm eyes, no longer pretending to be deaf and dumb, she nodded slightly to her as a greeting, and then went straight to the point.

"Miss Ye, how can I get the thousand acres of fertile land in your hands?"

Ji Shuiyue squinted her eyes and smiled, and her delicate red lips showed a little adoration, "Farlands? Oh, all the land I know seems to be wasteland."

Chi Xue's slender fingertips snapped, "Miss Ye, don't pretend to be stupid. When you saw me at the inn a few days ago, you hesitated for a moment and rushed to this remote county without stopping, just to get the land first. ?"

She raised her eyes, her dark eyes were as clear as snow-capped mountains and seas, which made Ji Shuiyue's heart tighten inexplicably.
