Fourth Master's childhood sweetheart

Chapter 41
After February, the weather in the capital gradually warmed up.

The ice and snow in Zilan Garden began to melt gradually, and flowed to other places along a gurgling stream in the courtyard.

Taking advantage of the end of winter, Tong Jia Xili chose a day when the sun was out, took Caiwei and Taoyao holding a small urn, and collected a lot of snowflakes on the plum trees and bamboo leaves in the yard.

In the courtyard, Tong Jia Xili held the already wet urn, and carefully shook the white snowflakes on the bamboo leaves into his urn.

This is an extremely delicate job, even if Tong Jia Xili has been busy for more than half an hour, he can barely collect one-third of the snow water.

"I'm so tired." Tong Jia Xili rubbed her neck, hugged the urn and went back to sit in the gazebo.

At this moment, Tong Jia Xili's jade hands were a little red from the cold, so she quickly put the urn aside and went to the charcoal stove to warm up.

"Taoyao, Caiwei, you guys also come over and rest for a while."

Tong Jia Xili sat down on the futon, only to realize that the cuffs and skirt were already stained with wet snow.

Fortunately, a charcoal fire had been prepared in the gazebo, and the surrounding area was warm at this time.After staying in it for a short time, the whole body has gradually warmed up.

"Oh, the work of collecting snow water is really delicate work. I only heard people say how elegant it is to make tea with snow water, but I never thought that there are so many hardships behind it."

Taoyao and Caiwei also sat down in the gazebo, put down the urns in their hands gently, and sat sideways.

Caiwei's face was also a little red from the cold, and the shallow pear dimples looked extraordinarily beautiful when the sun shone through the gauze.

"Gege...what are you looking at me for?"

Caiwei buried her head, showing a bit of embarrassment.

"It's nothing." Tong Jia Xili chuckled, and said, "The weather is getting warmer day by day, and it's been a little harder these few days."

"The few urns of snow water stored will be stored in the cellar at that time."

"En!" Caiwei and Taoyao responded one after another, and they couldn't help but look forward to the scene of using this snow water to make tea and make food.

...

A few days later, with the continuous sunny days, the capital city that had been freezing all winter finally gradually warmed up.

The snowflakes that had accumulated in the purple orchid garden for a whole winter were almost invisible at this time, only a few dewdrops gleaming in the sun on the grass could still give a glimpse of the winter snow.

Trees, flowers and plants are showing new buds one after another, and everything is full of vitality.

The magnolia flowers at the back of the yard have already bloomed in abundance, and many petals have already fallen from the trees and landed on the soil.

Tong Jia Xili couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw them passing by one day, so he ordered people to collect them.

Magnolia flower has the effect of beauty, and it can be embedded in food for consumption.Therefore, part of the magnolia flower was mashed, while the other part was pickled and sealed.

It was sunny at the beginning of March, and Tong Jia Xili just woke up that day when she heard the sound of birds chirping outside the window.

Taoyao, who was waiting for the wash, suddenly regained her spirits, her eyes seemed to shine brightly, and she was very pleasantly surprised.

"It's the cry of a magpie!"

Tao Yao was surprised and said: "The girl just got up here, and the magpie couldn't help but start to cry. Does this mean that something good will happen today?"

Tong Jia Xili was also in a good mood, and a tall and straight figure could not help appearing in his mind.

It's spring, how are you?
At the gate of Chengqian Palace, Yinzhen who was about to take a sedan chair to go to the study suddenly sneezed.

Su Peisheng hurriedly caught up with Yinzhen's footsteps, and immediately put a cloak on Yinzhen's back.

"Fourth brother! You'd better put it on, it's already sneezing."

Su Peisheng spoke in a resentful tone, feeling very depressed.

You are more casual.When the time comes to get sick, it’s not me, the slave, who suffers!

This time, Yin Zhen did not refuse.

When Su Peisheng just went out, he came over with a cloak and wanted him to put it on before he came out.

Although it's spring now, the little eunuch is very old-fashioned and keeps talking about the time when it's warm and cold, which makes him irritable for a while.

Thinking that he was not cold, he refused.

but…

He is indeed not cold!Why did you suddenly sneeze?

Could it be... who is suddenly thinking about himself?
Yinzhen shook his head, feeling that his idea seemed a little unrealistic.But unintentionally, the little girl under the magnolia tree flashed across my mind.

"By the way, Su Peisheng, the magnolia petals I ordered you to collect a few days ago have all been collected? Don't break them, you know?"

Seeing that Yinzhen didn't resist the cloak this time, Su Peisheng nodded and smiled and replied, "Your servant remembers everything. It's all put away, and it's not broken."

"Yeah." Yinzhen nodded and said, "Send it to Tong Mansion."

"Ai!"

Su Peisheng nodded in agreement, and it took him a while to realize what Yinzhen had just said.

Send it to Tongfu?
Wait... Su Peisheng, has he discovered some terrible secret?

Su Peisheng quickly covered his mouth, looked at Yinzhen who was walking away, and immediately chased after him.

Tongfu.

Tong Jia's pear was received from the palace in the afternoon.

As usual, Shun Anyan acted as a messenger, and delivered a small box from Yinzhen to Tong Jia Xili.

With a straight face, Shun Anyan seemed to be in a bad mood when he gave Tong Jia Xili the things.

"The things from Chengqian Palace. It seems...it was given to you by the fourth elder brother." Shun Anyan said, seeing Tong Jiaxili's happy appearance, her mood became even worse.

...

Ever since she entered the palace and met the fourth elder brother during the Chinese New Year this year, it was as if her younger sister had been infused with ecstasy soup!
With the fourth elder brother, even his elder brother has been forgotten.

Tong Jia Xili happily took the box, and as soon as she opened it, she could already smell a faint fragrance.

A plain purple purse was bulging, and beside it was a small piece of flower paper.

Landscapes and flowers are printed on the paper, and there is a line of small characters on the side.

"Neon clothes and new evening makeup, Shu Suting Pavilion Yu Dianchun. It has fainted to Danxia, ​​so I use the dew as fragrant dust."

Tong Jia Xili read this poem lightly, and a blush appeared on her face involuntarily.

The gently fluttering petals are like newly painted makeup for a dinner party, and the straight and thin branches are like a woman's slender waist, which is full of spring in the palace.The pink halo of the petals ranges from light to deep, and the dew in the morning wets the fallen petals.

...

Shun Anyan frowned, seeing the appearance of Tong Jiaxili, the youngest daughter who came suddenly, her brows involuntarily frowned even tighter.

"younger sister."

"What did the fourth elder brother give you? Why do you have this expression?"

　Ps:

　　Author: Hey, hey. The young couple are in love, what are you doing here?
　　Shun Anyan:? ? ?Eat dog food, can't you?

　　Author: Oh. You eat slowly.
