The blizzard continued, and all the roads in Chaoge were blocked by heavy snow, and it was impossible to come out to clean it under the harsh environment of snow all over the sky, so all the buying and selling shops in Chaoge closed their doors and went home to keep out the cold.
Chi Jingxi, a group of Chaoge students, usually go home after class, but the snow fell from morning to night, and the snow was as thick as knees, and everyone was trapped in the academy.
Wen Yantong chewed dry biscuits and asked, "Are there enough bedrooms in the academy?"
The maid said, "I heard that even if the children of the princes and nobles don't live in the academy, the academy will prepare dormitories for them and clean them on weekdays. They should be able to move in directly."
Wen Yantong sighed for a while, this treatment is too good.
She glanced outside, the sky had begun to darken, a little gloomy. Wen Yantong felt that this kind of weather was most suitable for lying under the blanket, so she speeded up and finished eating what was on hand, and got into the blanket again.
She took a book about ghost stories from the bookshelf, lit a lamp beside the bed, and sealed the windows with thick cotton curtains, so that the cold wind howling outside could not come in, giving her an inexplicable comfort.
She looked at it for about half an hour, and suddenly found that her hands were cold, and her legs under the blanket were also a little cold, so she called the maid, "Why is it so cold?"
The maid went to the stove and opened it, and yelled, "No, there's no charcoal!"
Wen Yantong lifted the quilt out of bed, walked over to have a look, and sure enough, he saw that the stove had been extinguished, the charcoal inside was completely burnt, it seemed that it had been extinguished for a while.
She felt cold and shivered, "What should I do? It's not night yet."
The maid also looked puzzled, "What can I do, the academy is heavily guarded and the roads are blocked by heavy snow, so I can no longer go out to buy charcoal..."
Wen Yantong saw that she was in trouble, and knew that there was no other way now, so he had no choice but to say, "It's all right, I'm going to lie down under the quilt, so I won't freeze to death."
Afraid that the bed would be cold, she walked quickly to the bed, and then said with some concern, "If you are cold, go and get two pieces of my clothes from the cabinet, and don't freeze them."
The maid thanked her gratefully, and said, "We still have a lot of firewood left, master, why don't you soak in hot water and warm your body before going to sleep."
Wen Yantong's first reaction was to refuse, "Forget it."
It's already cold enough, let her take off her clothes to take a bath, what if it freezes hard in the middle of washing
She huddled herself into a ball, trying to retain the scarce warmth in the bed. But because the stove is always on all night, her quilt is not thick. Now that the stove is turned off, and this kind of snowstorm hits her again, she is shivering in bed.
After lying down with her eyes closed for a while, her right leg gradually started to hurt, and then she realized that her leg hadn't grown well enough to be exposed to the cold, and it would be a terrible thing if the disease remained.
She hurriedly got up, "Hurry up, boil hot water, the hotter the better! I want to take a hot bath."
On the other side, Fu Zixian tidied up the copied articles, rubbed his frozen hands, looked up at Mu Yang beside him, and asked in doubt, "Why is Master Mu still in the school? Isn't it time to go home now? "
"Aren't you here too?" Mu Yang answered disapprovingly, bowing his head and writing.
"I don't need to take the rest of the suspicious articles back after copying them, so I stayed for a while and finished copying them." Fu Zixian saw that he was very serious, and was a little surprised. He asked, "Is Young Master Mu also copying articles?"
"Who copied that thing." Mu Yang put away his pen, smiled triumphantly, and held up the paper for him to see, "How about it, is the painting good-looking?"
Fu Zixian took a closer look and found that it was the old man Ding of the same size. He couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth and changed the topic, "Young Master Mu is waiting for the young master and the others? Master Li may keep people late, you should go back first Bar."
"No." Mu Yang rolled up the paper and said, "I'm waiting for you, this heavy snow has blocked the road to Chaoge, we can't go home tonight, we can only wait for the snow to stop..."
"What!" Fu Zixian's face suddenly changed, "You, you are going to stay in the academy tonight? So, the young master will also stay?"
Mu Yang looked puzzled, "What?"
"Oops..." Fu Zixian murmured to himself, hurriedly tidied up the books in his hand, put on his cloak and strode out of the school.
Mu Yang saw that his face was ugly and he acted so flustered, so he quickly followed him and shouted, "It's snowing heavily outside!"
Chi Jingxi and Cheng Xin were sitting in Li Boyuan's dormitory, each copying articles and the other reading, the room was completely silent.
Li Boyuan got up and opened the cotton curtain, took a look outside, and said, "It's almost time, and it's getting dark soon, you guys go back quickly."
Hearing this, Chi Jingxi put down his pen, got up and said with a smile, "Master's room is so warm, I don't even want to go out."
Cheng Xin also said cheerfully, "Then just sleep on the floor here."
"That's impossible!" Li Boyuan said, "I dare not keep the two of you in this small house."
"Master, what are you talking about? Brother Huang, you have already stayed, why can't you keep us?" Cheng Xin said.
"His Royal Highness stayed because he was in the palace at that time, can it be the same?" Li Boyuan issued an order to evict the guests, "Hurry up and go back to the dormitory before it gets dark."
Cheng Xin shook her head with a smile, put on her cloak with Chi Jingxi, and left Li Boyuan's bedroom.
The heavy snow was raging, and as soon as Chi Jingxi went out, the guards came up to hold an umbrella for him. The road in front of the dormitory has also been swept, and the snow is as thick as ankles, but it does not affect walking.
The two stood at the door and said goodbye to Li Boyuan. When they were walking out, a person suddenly jumped out, blocked their way, and shouted, "Young Master! Please stay!"
The man was shivering from the cold, his cheeks were very red, a thick layer of snow fell on the umbrella, and ice crystals formed on the wet fur coat, which showed that he had been standing in the snow for a while.
He ran in front of Chi Jingxi in a few strides, and almost slipped on the way. He walked up to him and untied the cotton cap covering his face, and exhaled whitely, "It can be regarded as waiting for the two of you."
Chi Jingxi took a closer look, isn't this the person he beat up a few days ago? It seems to be a guy named Wu Yutian.
He frowned, "What are you doing in the way, and you still don't get out of the way."
"Little Marquis, I have something to report to you." While trembling, he said, "You know Wen Yantong, the cripple from Ding Liutang, right?"
Chi Jingxi said, "I'm not interested in knowing about him."
As he spoke, he started to leave, and Wu Yutian chased after him, "Wait, wait, it's not his business, it's your business. Then Wen Yantong took your bedroom, Young Master..."
As soon as the words came out, both Chi Jingxi and Cheng Xin stopped. Cheng Xin laughed in surprise, "What did you say? Wen Yantong occupied Jingxi's bedroom?"
"Yes, yes." Wu Yutian said, "The cripple was originally in the same dormitory as Zhang, but since he became crippled, he has moved to a solitary dormitory. I went to see it earlier. It was found that he lived in the bedroom of the young master."
Cheng Xin burst out laughing, and said to Chi Jingxi, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, "Go, go and see if it's true."
Wu Yutian was overjoyed, and hurriedly showed his courtesy, "I will lead the way for you two."
"That's not necessary." Cheng Xin said, "It's so cold, you should hurry back."
Wu Yutian heard that Cheng Xin didn't want him to follow, so he had no choice but to give up. The secret channel has already filed a complaint, and as for the result, we will know in the morning.
It's just a pity that I can't see Wen Yantong crying bitterly. Wu Yutian sighed and left with regret.
And Chi Jingxi also went to the dormitory with a dark face, Cheng Xin walked beside him, followed by a group of guards.
Wen Yantong was completely unaware of this, and was soaking comfortably in the hot water.
The doors and windows of the bathroom were covered with extremely thick cotton curtains, and the whole bathroom was foggy and warm due to the heat. Wen Yantong wrapped her long hair in a cloth, soaked in the water and gently squeezed her right leg, feeling the blood flow all over her body.
Sure enough, I listened to people's advice to eat enough, so I would feel much more comfortable after soaking in hot water.
The bathing pool needs to be refueled from the outside, Wen Yantong didn't want the maid to run out all the time, so she soaked for a while before getting up. She yelled twice but no one answered, she thought it was the cotton curtain that had weakened her voice, so she stood up from the pool by herself.
The moment she was dehydrated, all the cold air was attached to her body, she didn't dare to delay at all, she hurriedly pulled a cloth towel to wipe herself, and then wrapped herself in a thick cotton coat.
After putting on the shoes, he tore off the cloth covering his head and let his long hair down. Wen Yantong simply wiped the damp hair on the back of his neck, wrapped himself in a quilt and left the bathroom.
After coming out, I realized that the two maids who were supposed to be standing in front of the door were gone.
"Where did he go?" She muttered suspiciously.
Pushing open the door into the main hall, and pulling aside the thick cotton curtain, she was so frightened that she almost turned over and blurted out, "Oh my god!"
There were many people standing in the originally empty room. The guards and entourage lined up on both sides, with their heads bowed. Her two maids, who were supposed to be guarding the gate, were kneeling in the center at this moment, trembling slightly.
In front of the two of them stood a man with his back to the main entrance, wearing an apricot yellow cloak, a white collar, and a golden hem. When Wen Yantong saw the wishful pattern embroidered on it, his legs softened and he almost knelt down.
Why did Chi Jingxi appear here? And brought so many people? !
Everyone heard Wen Yantong's movement, but they didn't dare to move. Chi Jingxi turned around slowly, and when she saw that Yantong was covered with a whole quilt, she couldn't help being a little startled, and forgot what she wanted to say at the beginning.
Wen Yantong said blankly, "It's already this hour, what's the little Houye doing here?"
Chi Jingxi's beautiful eyebrows darkened, and he said coldly, "I should ask you this. You don't have much flesh on your body, but you are quite fat."
Wen Yantong sniffed, "What do you mean... Can you explain it more clearly?"
"Who allowed you to be here?" Chi Jingxi asked.
"I live here!" she replied.
Chi Jingxi's eyes darkened, "I think you are not clear-headed."
He raised his voice, "Throw him out and freeze it for a while, and when you think about it, put it back in again."
The guards on both sides were about to step forward, supporting Wen Yantong on the left and right.
Wen Yantong wrapped the quilt tightly, and shouted, "Young Master, let's talk about it! It's so cold outside, people will die!"
She raised her voice, "What happened? What happened! I just took a shower!"
Chi Jingxi raised his hand. The two guards stopped moving.
He said, "When did you live in?"
Wen Yantong faintly sensed something was wrong, and hurriedly replied, "After my leg was crippled last time, it was very inconvenient for me to move around in the two-person dormitory. Seeing that there was no one living here, I made my own decision and moved in... Could it be, could it be? …”
"That's right." Cheng Xin came out from the study beside him, holding a book in his hand, and said with a smile, "This was originally Jingxi's dormitory, but I just didn't move in. I didn't expect you to be silent. drilled in."
Wen Yantong felt a "thud" in his heart, secretly thinking that it really is so! Although Chi Jingxi has a bad temper, she will not cause trouble for no reason.
When Fu Tanghuan arranged a single dormitory for her earlier, he probably expected that Chi Jingxi would not live in the academy, so he let her live in with confidence. It's just that the heavy snow came suddenly, which led to the current situation.
This is embarrassing.
Wen Yantong groaned and said, "I don't know that this is the bedroom of the young master...how about I move out now..."
"It's snowing heavily outside, and it's hard to walk. Don't move around. Why don't you stay with Chi Jingxi for one night." Cheng Xin said gently.
Chi Jingxi frowned, "Why should I live with this cripple?"
"Then what do you want to do? Are you going to kick him out?" Cheng Xin said, "It's so cold outside, it's really a troublesome thing to freeze him to death."
Chi Jingxi looked sideways at Wen Yantong.
She had just taken a shower, her skin was white from the mist, her big eyes lined her delicate face. After meeting Shangchi Jingxi's gaze, she pursed her lips very politely, "Little Hou Ye is so kind-hearted, he will definitely not watch me freeze to death, even if I am an unpopular person, pretending to be confused, A cripple who can't even hold a bow."
Chi Jingxi didn't expect her to say these words at all, and was stunned for a while. Even Cheng Xin laughed.
Demo, haven't you seen it before, this is a trick she learned while surfing the Internet!
Commonly known as: moral kidnapping.
Chi Jingxi was suddenly put on the hat of "such a good heart", and fell silent all of a sudden.
When the room was quiet, someone suddenly pushed the door and entered, bringing in a gust of cold wind.
Everyone looked at it at the same time, and saw Fu Zixian appear panting, his hair and clothes were covered with snow particles, which quickly turned into water as soon as he entered.
He looked at Chi Jingxi, and said quickly, "Young Lord, Wen Yantong didn't know about this matter, and I hope that Young Lord will not blame him!"
Chi Jingxi narrowed his eyes, "So, you arranged him in?"
Fu Zixian was about to speak, but Wen Yantong said, "It has nothing to do with him! When I was choosing the dormitory by myself, I saw this dormitory was luxurious and grand, with golden tiles, and it looked like a very auspicious house. That's why I chose it. I didn't know it was the house of the young master. It really is not an ordinary house. Since I lived in it... "
The rainbow ass looked like it was going to blow up, but Chi Jingxi said with a serious expression, "Shut up."
Wen Yantong lowered his voice in an instant, but he still finished his words while muttering, "It's good luck one after another, presumably it's the blessing of the little lord."
Fu Zixian said, "Young Master, don't be angry, I will take Wen Yantong away now."
As he said that, he went to pull Wen Yantong, "You can sleep with me for now."
Mu Yang, who happened to come in with his umbrella, heard this, and raised his eyebrows suspiciously, "Sleeping with you? You sleep with two, so where do you let Wen Yantong sleep?"
Fu Zixian was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he was the concubine of the prime minister's mansion, and he did not sleep alone.
Mu Yang said, "You share a dormitory with the bastard of the Chen family, I have already inquired about it."
Wen Yantong couldn't help asking, "Why are you asking about this?"
"Don't worry about it." Mu Yang turned his head and said to Fu Zi, "Wen Yantong lives in Brother Xi's room, and he belongs to Brother Xi. It's none of your business to beat or scold, you should take care of yourself Well, the charcoal fire tonight is not enough, the charcoal fire for the two of you to sleep can burn for an hour at most... "
"Wow—" Wen Yantong exclaimed, "This logic is so damn good, so you ate my snacks two days ago, and you are mine?"
"The academy may still have vacancies, it's better than letting Wen Yantong disturb the young master." Fu Zi offered.
"Just a few dumplings the size of a fingernail, you want to buy me? How can there be such a cheap thing!" Mu Yang argued with two people alone, "Where are there any vacant rooms? Everyone in the academy is here today, and there is no room at all. Come."
"Isn't that what you said when you couldn't swallow?" Wen Yantong said.
"I remember that there are still a few vacant rest rooms in the academy..."
"Those rest rooms are far apart, and you will be buried in the snow before you reach them."
Seeing the three of them arguing with each other, Chi Jingxi's face darkened, and he slapped the table impatiently, "Get out!"
After a while the house became extremely quiet. Mu Yang and Fu Zixian were forcibly pushed out by the guards, Cheng Xin said goodbye and left, the two maids were driven to keep guarding the door, and a group of guards also stood outside the door.
Wen Yantong was standing next to the stove, with a quilt on his back, his whole body was feeling warm. Chi Jingxi stood beside the soft couch without moving, with a book in her hand, she did not dare to move. She only moved a step or two when the servants who were cleaning the floor swept over.
Chi Jingxi still left her behind. The book in his hand was brought out by Cheng Xin from the study, and before leaving, he specially handed it to Chi Jingxi for him to read.
Wen Yantong waited for a while, and seeing that he hadn't moved, he walked slowly to his side and asked, "Young Lord, what book are you reading?"
Chi Jingxi's brows and eyes were very calm, neither angry nor smiling, and he couldn't see what he was thinking at all.
Wen Yantong stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look, but the words "Chi Jingxi" all over the page came into view.
She was startled, and made a sudden move. Before Chi Jingxi could react, she snatched the book, took a few steps on her hind legs, and said with her neck stuck, "How can you peek at other people's things!"
This book was used by her to practice calligraphy when she had nothing to do. There were many names written on it, all of which were characters in the book. Among them, Chi Jingxi was the one who wrote the most. Regardless of the character she is facing now, when she was reading the book, she also liked the villain Chi Jingxi very much.
In the end, Chi Jingxi's death was her greatest grief, and she shed a few tears for it.
And he also has a soft spot for the name Chi Jingxi. It's just that after transmigrating into the book, Wen Yantong couldn't transfer his love for the characters in the book to the real people in front of him. So every time I saw Chi Jingxi, I always felt extremely strange, and fear and apprehension accounted for a greater proportion.
And the reason why this book caused her such a big reaction was not because she was shy, but because there was a name at the end of the book that Chi Jingxi must not see.
Thinking of Cheng Xin reading this book just now, she was terrified.
Will Cheng Xin see it
Seeing that she reacted violently, Chi Jingxi gave her a half-hearted look, but didn't pursue it. He only ordered his servants to boil water, then turned and went to the study.
As soon as he entered the study, he saw a few plates on the table at first sight, and there were leftovers on the plates.
"Wen Yantong!" he shouted.
Wen Yantong hugged the book and hurried in, "What's wrong?"
Chi Jingxi ordered a few plates of food on the table, "Who allows you to put food on the desk?"
"Just... I was hungry halfway through reading, and I didn't want to waste time, so I read while eating." Wen Yantong scratched his head and explained.
"You should concentrate on reading. If you are so single-minded, how can knowledge enter your brain and knowledge enter your heart?" Chi Jingxi said angrily.
Wen Yantong thought for a while, and then brought up a sentence that he had only read in a book these two days, "It's easy for a young man to learn, but it's hard for him to learn. An inch of time is not to be taken lightly."
After hearing this, Chi Jingxi's face darkened, and he sneered, "You're good at learning, since you love learning so much, then copy this sentence a hundred times today."
Wen Yantong's eyes darkened.
a hundred times? ! I'm dying!
He ordered his servants to say, "Clean up the table."
After a while, the table was cleaned up, revealing a piece of paper pasted on the table, with Chi Jingxi's correct characters on the paper.
This is the piece of paper that Wen Yantong took out from Chi Jingxi's hand when Wen Yantong went to Li Boyuan's dormitory to practice calligraphy for the first time. As she said, this piece of paper was framed and pasted on the table by her.
When Chi Jingxi saw it, he was stunned for a moment, then turned his gaze, and saw that the blank border around the paper was filled with little poddling ducks.
Thinking of the nightmare of the Kodak Duck queuing up the tree, Chi Jingxi gritted his teeth, tore off the paper, clenched it into a ball and threw it on the ground, "I'm not allowed to see the old man Ding and the Kodak...duck you drew in the future. "
Wen Yantong walked over, picked up the ball of paper, and said, "Young Master, if you don't like Koda Ya and Old Man Ding, then don't take it out on the paper, how pretty I framed it."
Chi Jingxi snorted and said, "My things, I can throw them away as I want."
"That's not it, you gave me this paper, it's mine." Wen Yantong said.
"When did I say I gave it to you?" Chi Jingxi frowned.
"But you didn't say no when I took it." Wen Yantong said, "Acquiescence is yes."
Chi Jingxi couldn't argue with Wen Yantong, so he sat down on the chair angrily, thought for a while, and found that there was nothing to refute, so he called, "Bring me the chair."
He said to Wen Yantong angrily, "You sit across from me, and I'll just watch you copy the hundred times today."
Wen Yantong regretted it immediately and wanted to slap himself. Talking about winning is a fart!
She lingered and sat opposite Chi Jingxi, held her pen in silence for a while, then raised her head and said softly to Chi Jingxi, "Young Master, don't be angry. If you don't like Koda Ya and Old Man Ding, I'll draw other things too."
"Will the wonderful frog seeds work?"
The author has something to say: Xiao Houye is being rescued in the ICU, the cause of the disease: he couldn't make a noise, and fainted due to anger.
