As the New Year is approaching, strong winds blow in Yancheng for several days.
The strong wind blew away the remaining leaves of the sycamore tree, leaving only the bare branches rustling in the cold wind.
The wind stopped and snow fell overnight. The whole Xi Mansion was covered with white snow. Yun Qiao got up early and pushed open the balcony door. She saw a vast expanse of white, and even the bamboo forest was sealed by the snow.
A plum blossom in the courtyard has many shadows under the ice and snow, and carries a subtle fragrance.
The coldest time of the year has arrived.
When I returned to Yancheng last time, the heavy snow had not yet formed, but now it is the first snow of the year.
Yancheng is located in East China, and it may be the only place where it snows. It would be great to have snow here all year round.
"Snowing!"
Downstairs, brothers Xi Wenqing and Xi Wenzhan were shouting, very excited.
Yun Qiao was condescending, watching the two children rolling in the snow, and then thought of the biological mother who had never heard from him, and was a little distracted for a moment.
At this time, a snowball hit Yun Qiao.
It's Xi Wenzhan.
Ten-year-old Xi Wenzhan has limited grudges and has not yet matured in his outlook on life. His likes and dislikes of Yun Qiao follow those of his brothers and sisters, without his own judgment.
Yun Qiao lived in the fourth room for a year.
After more than a year, even the youngest child has its own evaluation - Yun Qiao is quiet and beautiful, even though she is a mother, her sister and brother don't like her, and Xi Wenzhan doesn't think Yun Qiao is particularly annoying.
So he was joking with Yun Qiao as a sign of goodwill.
Yun Qiao thought: "If anything happens to Du Xiaoqin, these two naughty children are my half-brothers. Will they rely on me then?"
When she thought of this, her face suddenly darkened, and she turned around and went back to the house.
The young Xi Wenzhan finally plucked up the courage to approach first, but when he was slapped in the face, he immediately snorted and walked away angrily.
While combing her hair, Yun Qiao thought again: "They must all be the blood of Fourth Master Xi. It is not my turn to take care of the young master of the Xi family."
As for how to treat half-children, Uncle Qian and the others are the template: It doesn't matter, we don't know each other, let's live our own lives, whether you love them or not, it has nothing to do with me.
Ni Yuanming, Qian Changping and Du Xiaoqin are all brothers and sisters, but they have never been sticky with each other - you don't like me, I don't like you, no one cares about the other!
When Yun Qiao went downstairs to have breakfast, Xi Wenlan joined her two younger brothers and were building a snowman.
Du Xueru stood at the door and watched with a gentle and gentle expression; Fourth Master Xi also watched for a moment and told them: "Don't freeze, keep warm."
Yun Qiao looked on with cold eyes, still feeling that Fourth Master Xi was a good person.
She has always had a good feeling towards Mr. Xi because he knows how to avoid suspicion. Maybe Yun Qiao hates people who are too enthusiastic, so she likes the distant Mr. Xi and hates the warm-hearted Xi Wenlan.
Emotionally biased, he is not sure who Du Xueru's ally is.
Yun Qiao looked at them coldly and remained calm.
She sat alone in the restaurant, picked up the newspaper and started reading.
Peiping issued a "Presidential Election Law", which allows the president to be re-elected and the presidential term is ten years.
"Democracy has become a child's play again. This is a prelude to restoring the monarchy and public opinion is building momentum."
Although Yun Qiao didn't understand the current situation very well, the "restoration" mentioned by Uncle Qian last time and the threat of Director Jiang "stepping down" made Yun Qiao understand the profound meaning of this election law.
The big picture has nothing to do with a little person like her.
The maid prepared breakfast, and everyone who played in the snow came in to eat.
At the dinner table, Fourth Master Xi told the children: "During the holidays, study hard at home and don't wander around. The Revolutionary Party has been making a lot of noise in the city recently."
Xi Wenlan was surprised: "Really? Why didn't I hear about it?"
"That should be the case. The military government has ordered that the revolutionary party be severely punished." Mr. Xi said.
