People are in good spirits at happy events, Yin Mingyu took back the goldfish and made another windfall, and his anger disappeared. After two days, his voice became better.

After going back and forth like this, it has entered the twelfth lunar month.

The 16th day of the twelfth lunar month is the beginning of the royal fasting month until the end of the Shangyuan Festival.

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, there will be a temple fair at the foot of the mountain where the Huguo Temple is located.

This temple fair is not as lively as the lantern festival that stayed up all night in the capital on the three days of Shangyuan Festival. However, due to the detached status of Huguo Temple, the last temple fair of the past year naturally attracted many nearby people to the temple fair.

Not only the Xie family will go to Huguo Temple to offer incense on this day, but also some other people will come to the temple fair.

There is a curfew in Beijing, people in the capital will come out during the day and rush back in the evening. If each family has a Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, if they want to participate in the temple fair, but do not want to travel back and forth, they will leave Beijing in advance.

As soon as Yin Mingyu recovered, he couldn't help but mention the date to go to Hot Spring Zhuangzi to Mrs. Xie.

"Lang Jun said that the affairs in the house are arranged, and the thirteenth or the fourteenth will go out."

Mrs. Xie looked unhappy, "The house is busy in the lunar month, why are you running out if you don't stay in the house to help your mother?"

The auntie was very puzzled, "niece-in-law... help?"

Even those who had just returned to Beijing knew that she was tired and lazy, and Mrs. Xie couldn't help but glared at Yin Mingyu.

Bai Zhixu hurriedly stuffed a cup of tea for her mother, and then looked at her grandmother and cousin.

Yin Mingyu didn't think Mrs. Xie was angry because she didn't help, and asked with a bit of clarity, "Would grandma want to go with her?"

"Do you think I'm you?" Madam Xie tapped the cane hard, and then said, "How can I drop Ce'er..."

It wasn't even thrown away.

Yin Mingyu silently conveyed his eyes to Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie had a serious face and fell into thinking and struggling.

The other two people present were already in surprise and shock.

Neither mother nor daughter expected that the topic of the meeting would suddenly change like this, but Bai Zhixu didn't know the former Xie family and Mrs. Xie, and was only a little surprised, and the auntie was simply at a loss.

Her memory seems to be broken, can't she rely on it? The aunt is afraid.

In the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, even if you keep warm properly, it is no better than at home. Xie Ce is just right in the wind and cold, so Mrs. Xie really struggled for half an hour before she said solemnly to her daughter-in-law Mrs. Xie: "I think about it, I haven't been to the Buddha for several years. The incense is on, and it happens that Dalang has an errand this year, so I will go with them to Zhuangzi to worship Buddha for a few days, and Ce’er will stay in the mansion.”

She was also afraid that her daughter-in-law would be dissatisfied, and sighed faintly: "I am so old, I don't know how many years I can worship the Buddha..."

Mrs. Xie: "…"

Going out and going out, it doesn't have to be so serious.

Old age and death were originally very serious topics, but when Mrs. Xie said it like this, Mrs. Xie couldn't help laughing and crying.

But withered trees meet spring, which is the joy of life.

Mrs. Xie was willing to cooperate, so she frowned and said, "I just didn't see you after school, and Ce'er cried like that. If she doesn't see you, my daughter-in-law is really afraid that his little one will cry badly."

Mrs. Xie felt distressed when she thought of her great-grandson, but she couldn't help but smile, she was very happy that her great-grandson valued her.

"It's not that my daughter-in-law doesn't want to take care of Ce'er, it's that she loves him." Madam Xie said calmly and trustingly, "You might as well take him with you and take care of him on the way."

Mrs. Xie was reluctant to bear, and she was even more shaken at this time.

Mrs. Xie said, "Second mother will do the accounting work for me. The house is not very busy. If you decide to bring Ce'er, my daughter-in-law will make appropriate arrangements earlier."

Old Madam Xie's heart was completely tilted, but she said: "Just make up the account, you can't be busy with your mother-in-law, but she is so loose, and she will let Ce'er move to the East Court next spring, how can she be like a shopkeeper? …”

Mrs. Xie was surprised, but not very surprised, and nodded with a smile.

In the evening, Mrs. Xie announced that she would take Xie Ce to Zhuangzi.

Xie Ce didn't know that he was almost thrown down, and as soon as he knew he was going out, he was as happy as a bird.

Mrs. Xie persuaded Patriarch Xie in advance, and Patriarch Xie pressed it ahead of time even if he disagreed, so he just nodded sternly, and nothing else.

Only Xie Qin: "..."

After being silent, he unconsciously looked at Yin Mingyu.

Yin Mingyu slowly turned his head and drank tea as if nothing had happened.

Xie Qin determined that the matter was related to her and that she was not innocent.

On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Xie family's carriage was waiting outside the gate early.

Xie Qin was wearing a black cloak and was waiting beside the leading carriage with his hands behind his back.

Not long after, a group of people said that laughter came out, and Xie Qin turned to look over.

Madam Xie sat on the sedan chair wrapped in a heavy cloak and appeared first from the door.

Then came the auntie and Xie Ce. Xie Ce was held in his arms, wrapped around him with only a pair of eyes exposed, and was turning around.

Then there was Yin Mingyu, who was still wearing the cape that her sisters made for her, the cape hat was on her head, and the brim was furry, making her face look smaller.

She and Bai Zhixu walked together.

"What—"

A sheep in a cotton coat stepped out behind Yin Mingyu.

So many people, Xie Qin sighed.

She is clearly able to enjoy herself, so why worry about her being suffocated?

However, teaching Xie Qin's helplessness didn't stop there. Xie Ce covered his mouth, still not delaying his strong request for his mother to take a carriage with him. His little hands were fiddling with the heavy cloak, and he poked the tight cloak. .

Yin Mingyu watched the sheep being led into the cage, covered with a blanket to block the wind, and listened to Xie Ce shouting in the carriage, and said to Xie Qin very helplessly: "Lang Jun, you see this is really... Xiao Lang Jun insists With a sheep, this is... I'm also embarrassed..."

Xie Qin looked at her smiling eyes, and his emotions were overwhelmed, so he stretched out a well-jointed hand from the cloak, pinched the fur on her hat, and pulled down gently to cover her eyes.

Yin Mingyu's eyes turned dark, and then he raised his hand to lift the hat blocking his vision, only to see Xie Qin's back walking towards the carriage.

Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced around, and the people in the carriage didn't look outside, but the guards and entourage all had a weird expression of "seeing but not daring to see more".

Yin Mingyu: "…"

"Mother!"

In the carriage, Xie Ce's small voice came out again.

Yin Mingyu retracted his gaze, turned his feet, walked towards the carriage of Mrs. Xie in the middle, and stepped on it.

The charcoal stove in the carriage was very warm, and as soon as the door of the carriage opened, bringing a burst of cold air inside, she moved faster and told the driver to close the door as soon as possible.

"Mother!" Xie Ce stretched out his small hand from the heavy cloak and waved at her.

Yin Mingyu didn't respond to him immediately, but took off the cloak on his body and put it aside, then stretched out his arm, pulled the cloak on his body again, wrapped it tightly, and tied it tightly from top to bottom.

Xie Ce's arms were close to the sides of his body, and his legs were tied together. He blinked, twisted, and kicked his legs again. Looking at the legs tied like fish tails, he giggled.

When Yin Mingyu was tying him, the carriage started, and it just helped him, not letting him fall forward and backward. At this time, the carriage walked steadily, Xie Ce was happy again, and Mrs. Xie turned one eye and closed one eye. Do not see.

After a while, Xu Shi was a little hot, Xie Ce's face flushed slightly, and Yin Mingyu untied his cloak.

But Xie Ce didn't play enough, and wrapped himself around him.

This was just right, saving him from taking off the cloak and the sudden temperature change and catching a cold, so Mrs. Xie and Yin Mingyu ignored him.

The road was a little difficult to walk, and the carriage drove for an hour and a half before it stopped in front of Zhuangzi.

And when everyone got off the carriage, the sky began to snow, and luck was really good.

Xie Qin arranged it in the front yard, while Yin Mingyu handed over the resettlement to Jin'er and Yin'er, and invited his aunt and Bai Zhixu to go to the hot spring in the evening.

The auntie happily agreed, and Bai Zhixu replied later, so she readily agreed.

Xie Ce had a good ear, and when he heard them say "hot spring", he also said in a milky voice that he wanted to go together.

Yin Mingyu said, "Eat roast duck for dinner", and he easily taught him to forget about the hot springs, and only roast duck was left in his little brain.

And Yin Mingyu planned to go to bed after soaking in the hot spring. After dinner, there was still some time. Seeing that the snow outside was getting bigger and bigger, he became interested, so he brought Jin'er Yin'er to the courtyard to build a snowman.

My aunt wanted to go too, so she taught Madam Xie a look, and pressed it down again.

Bai Zhixu was young, and after sitting in the room for a while, he couldn't hold back and was embarrassed to say it, but he was a little distracted when talking with Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Xie treated her better than her mother, and said directly, "Go if you want. It's a good thing for your daughter to be cautious and don't be afraid."

Bai Zhixu heard the words and said, "Grandma, Zhixu also wants to go out to play."

Mrs. Xie nodded, and Bai Zhixu was a little excited, dressed and came to the courtyard.

The snow that just fell was too loose, so they gathered the snow together with a shovel, collected it in a pile, and then patted it down.

Compared with snowballs, **** and **** is much more interesting.

Yin Mingyu was originally a person who advocated making snowmen. Seeing Bai Zhixu's beautiful face full of interest, he even forgot the cautiousness that had always existed since he arrived at Xie's house, so he stood aside and watched her push the snowball.

The lamb was not tied to the rope, and was dangling beside him, making a "baa-" sound from time to time.

In the main room, Xie Ce listened to the movement outside, probed in the direction of the door, and then turned around and shouted, "Great-grandmother~"

Mrs. Xie refused at first, but she couldn't bear him to act like a spoiled child, so she taught someone to dress him, but agreed with him, "Just play for a while."

Xie Ce nodded quickly, as long as he could go out, he would all agree.

Madam Xie explained to Nanny Tong in a low voice, and then she let her go out with Xie Ce.

In the courtyard, Yin Mingyu saw them and didn't say anything, but Bai Zhixu stepped aside as soon as he saw Xie Ce running down to Xueqiu.

Xie Ce's clothes were too heavy, and his ball-like body stepped on the soft snow and staggered, as if he was about to fall down at any time.

Nanny Tong stooped down and trotted behind him, ready to help him at any time.

But every time Xie Ce looked like he was about to fall, he took the next step and ran to the snowball smoothly.

The snowball was already half his height, Xie Ce stretched out his hand, the cloak bulged out the shape of two hands, touched the snowball, pushed it, but didn't push it.

Xie Ce made the milk hard, and pushed hard, and his mouth followed with force, "Well—"

The snowball swayed slightly, and just as he was about to roll, he slipped under his feet and slapped the snow with a thud.

And Snowball moved forward a bit, and then returned to the place steadily, as if mocking him.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh, but Yin Mingyu laughed the most.

Nanny Tong hurried forward, picked him up and ran to the main room.

Xie Ce was stunned, so he moved away from the ground and further and further away from Snowball, and hurriedly said, "Snowball! Snowball!"

In the room, Madam Xie watched them come in, took a sip of tea slowly, and said, "It's a good deal, it's natural, no more, no less."

Xie Ce put a "snowball" in his mouth and pouted, feeling the love from his great-grandmother.

The auntie watched this scene, shrugged her shoulders, and sat honestly on the chair.

Outside, Yin Mingyu had seen enough of the children's jokes, and together with Bai Zhixu, they carried snowballs on top of the snowdrifts, and asked someone to take a carrot from the dining room, put it on the snowball, and drew eyes and mouths for it. , put the arm.

At this point, the snowman is complete.

"What—"

Yin Mingyu pulled away the sheep that was leaning forward, admired it for a moment, then turned to Bai Zhixu and said, "Cousin, let's go to the hot spring."

Bai Zhi promised and turned to look for his mother, and the auntie couldn't wait to come out with her.

The house where the hot spring pool is located is filled with heat.

Yin Mingyu and his auntie took off their coats generously, and went into the water wearing only a silk nightgown. The moment the silk was soaked in water, it stuck to the skin, and even the color of the apron inside was faintly printed.

Bai Zhi Xu Ji was embarrassed to be naked in front of others, took off his coat after a moment of embarrassment, and quickly immersed his body in the hot spring, only showing his head and a small section of his neck.

Yin Mingyu admired his cousin's delicate face, and then went to talk to his aunt to let her relax.

However, the charm of my aunt is not comparable to that of young and immature girls, Yin Mingyu is full of happiness.

And she admired the face of the aunt's wife, in Bai Zhixu's eyes, the cousin's sister-in-law also has a different romantic temperament, and her eyes can't help but be attracted.

After they soaked for a quarter of an hour, the maid came to remind them, and the three of them soaked for a little more before they got up and came out of the hot spring.

No matter how warm the room was, the moment the body left the hot spring, it was still cold. Even Yin Mingyu was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty coming out of the bath, and immediately went behind the screen to put on clothes.

They were all dressed and wrapped tightly and left the house together.

There was someone waiting under the moon. Seeing them coming out, he greeted his auntie gently, then set his eyes on Yin Mingyu, and said lightly, "Second mother, let's go."

Yin Mingyu took a few steps and saw that the end of his hair was frozen, and he knew that he was also soaking in the hot spring in another room.

Xie Qin held her hand very naturally. The tentacles were warm and slippery. His heart moved, and his face was really calm: "Go back quickly, don't freeze."

Yin Mingyu said goodbye to his aunt and cousin, and left quickly with him.

Bai Zhixu looked at the silhouette of the two leaving with each other from behind, and said with some envy, "It's good..."

However, Bai Zhixu, who was full of beautiful imaginations, didn't see it at this time. Just as the husband and wife walked to the courtyard together, Yin Mingyu saw her snowman torn apart at a glance, and then looked at the unfinished carrot beside the lamb's mouth, those illusory ones. The beautiful and tender atmosphere has all disappeared.

Yin Mingyu instantly looked like he wanted to "slaughter the sheep".

Xie Qin hurriedly took her by the shoulders and took her back to the house.

But Yin Mingyu, on a whim, has to compete with a sheep when he is naive.

Xie Qin sat in the house and watched her scribble and draw on paper with a pen.

She looked very serious, and Xie Qin took a book and read it.

After a while, Yin Mingyu put down her pen, Xie Qin looked up from the book, and was about to tell her to go to bed when she saw her start getting dressed again.

"What are you doing?"

Yin Mingyu waved his hand and said to him: "Lang Jun sleep first, I will be back later."

Xie Qin watched her go out, picked up the book and saw that the candles were about to burn out, and Yin Mingyu was not seen coming back. Between going out to see what she was doing and lying down, he was not as boring as her, so he chose to lie down first. .

And lying down early made him miss a magical night.

"What—"

"What—"

Xie Qin, Mrs. Xie and others stood in the courtyard, silently watching the maze surrounded by solid snow walls half a person's height, a sheep screaming and wandering in the maze in confusion, unable to find its way. .

"…"

What kind of person would lead people to build a labyrinth overnight in order to punish a sheep?

Xie Ce was the happiest. After "Wow", he rushed towards the maze with joy.
