"It's snowing, sir~ It's snowing." Xiaoyu jumped up and down in front of Ying'er, her toes causing countless plum blossom petals to take off.

Ying'er looked up at the sky, and soft snowflakes were falling, and they were getting bigger and bigger.

"I didn't expect it would snow today! This trip was such a coincidence." Zha Duzhong grinned, revealing a line of healthy white teeth.

It was not just Ying'er and the others who went up to Meilin Mountain, but also several ordinary people. When they saw the snow falling, they couldn't help but tighten their collars and descended Meilin Mountain one after another.

Ordinary people's bodies cannot withstand snowy weather. They don't bring enough clothes when they first go up the mountain. When it snows, people's noses can freeze into ice cubes.

Seeing that the number of people in the plum forest dropped sharply, Ying'er felt a little happy, because it felt good to be able to enjoy the silence alone.

"Zha Duzhong, why don't we dance a sword under the plum blossoms on a snowy day?" Ying'er's interest was hard to shake off.

Zha Duzhong had this intention and took off the long sword from his waist. "Master Du, your weapon seems to be a whip."

"Yes, I left my sword at the inn." Ying'er patted the melon seeds on her head and touched the nine-section whip on her waist with her right hand, "Zha Duzhong, if you don't mind, I will use the nine-section whip to cooperate with you.

"

"So Mr. Du's weapon is called the Nine-section Whip!" Zha Duzhong looked at the whip in Ying'er's hand, seeming very satisfied with the name.

Ying'er waved the nine-section whip in her hand and hit the ground with a 'snap', and the snowflakes and plum blossoms in the sky melted together.

"It's so beautiful, sir, please give me a few more whips!" Xiaoyu, as a bystander, was only interested in the beautiful snow scene and plum blossom scene.

However, Ying'er and Zha Duzhong started fighting. It was better to say that they were fighting together and that they were working together to stir up trouble in the plum blossom forest.

In the darkness of the three and a half miles away, there was a pair of slanted eyes watching their movements. Whenever someone looked in his direction, his figure would hide away and blend into the trunk of the plum blossom tree.

Ying'er was tired of playing, so she simply fell down and lay on the ground where plum blossoms and snow intertwined, smelling the fragrance of plum blossoms and closing her eyes.

Zha Duzhong stood beside Ying'er and looked at Ying'er's peaceful face. He felt inexplicably... If Mr. Du were a woman, he would be so beautiful that there would be no other beauty in the world.

"Are you happy, Du Ying?" Zha Duzhong changed his polite address to Ying'er and called her by her first name.

Ying'er smiled and nodded, "I'm so happy, my back is sweating from playing."

"Then you should take it easy and don't catch a cold." Zha Duzhong followed Ying'er and fell to the plum blossom ground, splashing most of the plum blossom petals and spinning in the air.

Ying'er took out a bottle of medicine from her arms and said two pills, "Eat it to warm your body."

"Do you still have this thing on you?" Zha Duzhong took it and stuffed it into his mouth without questioning whether it was poisonous.

"It's snowing, it's almost the New Year." Ying'er remembers that when she was a child, as long as it snowed, she would begin to look forward to the arrival of the New Year, because at that time, Uncle Wuyou's family would come to the palace to play.

Uncle Wuyou probably won’t come to Zhiyao Mountain this New Year. Without the wonderful water, I wonder if there will be less fun.

Because Ying'er's thoughts were far away, she didn't even hear Zha Duzhong's question.

"Du Ying... Du Ying... what are you thinking about?" Zha Duzhong shouted several times.

Ying'er came back to her senses and smiled: "I miss home."

"Haha, I guess you just miss home. Where is your home?" Zha Duzhong then asked about Ying'er's residence.

"In the west city, it's not far from here."
