The environment of Xue Mansion is very good. If it is placed in spring, it must be the fragrance of birds and flowers. After dinner, I wandered around the yard at will. It seemed that it was going to snow. .
Now that the weather is cold, there is a charcoal stove in each room, so there is no need to go to the kitchen to boil water. Bai Li is naturally very happy. He sits on the chair according to You Qing to let him read a book, while he sits in the outer room and reads it. On the stove, the house was warm.
Since the two have been together since then, You Qing lets Bai Li go everywhere, and Bai Li comes first for daily washing, so Bai Li habitually rinses his mouth, washes his face and wipes his body after he has finished boiling the water.
Now it was the cold winter, and the night was very cold. Bai Li tidied himself up, wrapped his clothes tightly, and prepared to wash his feet. He took the footbath and walked to You Qing. He turned the chair next to him and turned to the outside. I took off my shoes and socks, and immersed my feet in the water. I felt that all my muscles and bones were stretched out, and I was so comfortable that I groaned.
One of them faced the table and the other turned their backs to the table, sitting side by side, their figures overlapped and reflected on the wall. Bai Li smirked at the shadow on the wall.
You Qing looked at him sideways: "Ali..."
Bai Li leaned on the back of the chair, turned his face and smiled at him: "Aqing!"
You Qing smiled: "Why are you so happy?"
Bai Li blinked, a light blush appeared on his fair face, he hugged his arm sideways, stared at him for a long time and laughed again: "I won't tell you!"
You Qing has always seen through his mind, so he didn't ask any further questions. He didn't like to talk about his emotions in his heart. He just felt that Bai Li had followed him all the time. After adding a thought, I don't want him to follow me to endure hardships, I can only do my best for the next year's meeting.
Bai Li rested his head on his shoulder and smiled brilliantly: "Aqing, I know, other people's book boys are different from me!"
You Qing laughed along: "What's the difference?"
"They all slept in the outer room, and I slept in the inner room!"
You Qing was stunned for a moment, the smile in his eyes deepened, he raised his hand and touched his head: "Well."
"Aqing, read the book!" Bai Li raised his head and kissed him on the side of the face, then put his head on his shoulder again.
You Qing looked at the blue silk scattered on his arms and chest, his heart softened: "Okay."
You Qing didn't read the book for a long time, when suddenly the weight on his shoulders slumped. He turned his head and saw that Bai Li was already asleep.
Thinking that he must be tired from walking back and forth to Gongyuan and out of the city today, and in addition to being prone to sleepiness in winter, now his feet are still soaked in hot water, and he is so comfortable on his shoulders, not hitting him. Sleepy is strange.
You Qing raised his hand and gently moved his head away, letting him lean on the back of the chair. He stood up and squatted across from him. He reached into the water to test the temperature, and it was still hot.
He raised his head and glanced at Bai Li, afraid of waking him up, so he moved very lightly, lifted one of his feet slightly, and rubbed him carefully and gently with hot water. Finally, he rolled up his trouser legs, and took hot water to wash his half calf above the ankle.
Bai Li's legs are fair and straight, and his feet are just like his people. They are delicate and delicate, and they are delicate and smooth in the hands.
You Qing was a little greedy for the touch of his hand, and wiped it very gently with the towel, and finally couldn't help pinching it again, and then let go with reluctance.
Bai Li slept very deeply, and didn't wake up until he was carried to the bed, You Qing covered him with the quilt, leaned over and looked at him for a long time, the emotion in his eyes was like thick ink that couldn't be opened, and he kissed him on the lips My dear, I trimmed his messy hair again, and then turned around and sat down at the table again.
The next day, a little snow really fell, and the snow particles fell softly on the shoulders, the ground was not yet white, and the courtyard was still full of withered branches, elegant red plums, and emerald green holly, standing proudly in the fluffy snow.
You Qing stood under the porch at the door and watched for a while, heard the movement behind him, knew that Bai Li had come out, turned around and walked to his side, raised his hand and touched his cheek: "Is it cold?"
"It's not cold!" Bai Lichong squinted and smiled at him.
"It's almost Chinese New Year, what do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
"Big chicken legs!" Bai Li blurted out without thinking, "Steamed, fried or grilled are delicious!"
You Qing was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "I'm still thinking about chicken thighs, your habits are really like a fox."
Bai Li smiled at him silently, thinking proudly: I am a fox! I'm still a nine-tailed spirit fox! There are only a handful of nine-tailed spirit foxes in this world. Others need a lot of age to succeed in their cultivation. I am the youngest!
Seeing him in high spirits, You Qing smiled and said: "Horizontal and vertical, this is outside the city, which is quite convenient. Then go out and find a place to dig the soil, and I will make you a beggar chicken."
When Bai Li heard this, his saliva almost dripped onto the front of his clothes, and with a look of fascination, he buried his head and clenched his fingers and began to count the days seriously: "How long until the New Year?"
"Come on, in a few days."
The two were talking, and suddenly there were faint voices and footsteps coming from the front hall. Bai Li curiously dragged You Qing to the yard. As soon as he stood still, he saw several bookboys leaving in other rooms one after another. When they came out, they all looked up curiously.
A few figures appeared at the corner of the corridor leading to the front hall. The first one was tall and straight, dressed in brocade and jade, wearing a fox fur, and he was rich. After a few steps, he looked at a familiar face, and it was the owner of the Xue Mansion. , Xue Chang.
Bai Li was a little surprised, and pulled You Qing's sleeves: "Aqing, isn't this Master Xue?"
"Exactly, Lord Xue is the prime minister of the dynasty, and the master of this other courtyard."
Although Bai Li has experienced the previous life, when he sees Xue Chang, he can remember that this person had been kind to You Qing, but after all, it has been a long time, and many details can't be remembered. It was only when I felt so impressed that I suddenly realized and nodded.
Xue Chang was also a little surprised when he saw You Qing and the two, and then he walked over with a smile and said, "It's really fate!"
You Qing smiled and bowed his hands respectfully: "Student You Qing has seen the Prime Minister!"
Xue Chang hurriedly stopped him and said with a smile, "No need to be too polite, I don't like these rituals the most. Every day you come and go with me."
You Qing saw that he was sincere, so he didn't show any more politeness. He smiled and retracted his hand. When he looked up, he turned his gaze to Bai Li, and his expression froze slightly. Only then did he realize that Bai Li was a little unusual today. Greetings to say hello, quickly turned his head and looked over suspiciously.
Bai Li stood quietly beside him, staring at the luxurious and fluffy fox fur on Xue Chang's body, biting his lip, his eyes were straight, and he looked like he was wandering out of the sky.
Xue Chang had a smile in his eyes, looked at him for a moment, and joked: "What? Don't you remember me so soon?"
You Qing was a little puzzled by Bai Li's anomaly, but the feeling of blockage in his heart disappeared, and he quickly said: "Ali, see the Prime Minister soon."
Bai Li returned to his senses, looked at him, said "oh", and bowed to Xue Chang obediently: "Bai Li has seen the Prime Minister!"
"I just said it, don't be too polite." Xue Chang smiled even more, and while speaking, he raised his hand towards him, trying to stop his movements.
Bai Li glanced at the white ball on his sleeve, his heart jumped, he quickly retracted his hand, and quickly stepped back half a step to distance himself from him.
Xue Chang paused in the air, raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, then smiled and retracted his hand.
You Qing once again noticed something was wrong with Bai Li, and quickly glanced at him, thinking that although Xue Chang was the owner of the place, he didn't live here, and quickly said: "If it's snowing, I have to trouble the adults to come here, so why don't you come in and drink? Warm up with a cup of tea?"
Xue Chang didn't care about his anti-guests, nodded and smiled: "Alright, I happened to be out of the city to run errands and passed by here, so I came to see, are you still used to living?"
"Get used to it, Lord Lao is concerned."
The two went inside while chatting. Bai Li stood in the courtyard for a while, only to regain his senses when he saw the guard and the general manager who were following Xue Chang walking past him, and quickly followed.
Xue Chang turned around and instructed the general manager, and asked him to call the rest of the people over to speak. After he finished the order, he watched Bai Li standing by the table with his head bowed and making tea with interest.
You Qing pursed her lips, her eyes were quiet, and some thoughts arose in her heart, but Gujing had no waves on her face.
After making the tea for a while, several other Jie Yuan who lived next to him also rushed over and saluted Xue Chang one after another. Xue Chang smiled and got to know them, and chatted casually.
Bai Li has been standing beside You Qing. At first, they could understand what they said. Later, they were a little academic. He heard a little bit of understanding. The hairball at the place is angry.
Xue Chang only sat for two cups of tea, then got up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he glanced at Bai Li again, and saw that he was staring at him without blinking. Upon closer inspection, he found the pair of moist There seemed to be anger in his eyes, and he couldn't help being a little surprised. After a moment's pause, he retracted his gaze with a smile, said goodbye to everyone present, and turned to leave.
Although this is his mansion, he can't stay for a long time. After all, all the candidates who are about to take part in the general examination live in it. Anyone can become a disciple of the emperor in the future. If you stay for a long time, you will have the suspicion of forming a party and privacy.
Most of the Xie Yuan present also understood this truth, so they didn't do more greetings.
After seeing Xue Chang away, they chatted with each other for a while and then left, leaving only You Qing and Bai Li in the room.
You Qing pulled Bai Li to sit down on the couch and touched his head. Just as he was about to speak, he was hugged by him, stunned for a moment, then looked down at him: "What's wrong?"
Bai Li threw himself into his arms, clasping his arms tightly, shaking his head and humming with red eyes, but didn't speak.
You Qing thought for a while, then smiled: "Why didn't you say hello when you met Master Xue today? Didn't you say he was kind to us?"
Bai Li suddenly popped out of his arms, sniffled and yelled, "He's a bad guy!"
You Qing raised his hand to hold his face, and rubbed his thumb in the corner of his bright eyes, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you a bad person again? Didn't you say he was a good person last time?"
"His clothes are made of fox fur! How cruel!"
You Qing looked at the serious anger on his face, and with a smile on his face, he rubbed his face comfortingly: "Rich people always have these preferences. If you see one of them angry, will you be angry?"
"Humph!" Bai Li grabbed his hand and threw himself into his arms again, "A-Qing will also become a rich person in the future, Ah-Qing will never wear fox fur! Wealth is just an excuse!"
Although You Qing really didn't like this kind of dress, he was still amused by his words: "Are you a fortune teller or a pictorialist? You can speak so loudly about unknown things."
Bai Li didn't answer him, so he wanted to teach Xue Chang a hard lesson with his temper, but when he thought that he would help You Qing in the future, he felt that he couldn't do it, so he couldn't help but feel angry and depressed, and hammered You Qing on the arm: "Those who wear fox fur are bad people!"
"Yes, they're all bad guys." You Qing patted him on the back with a smile, "Are you a fox? You care so much."
"Humph!"
