Accompanying her into the house, Yu Tongchen helped her take off her cloak, outer robe and shoes, and after she got into bed, he pulled the quilt for her.

She didn't close her eyes, just staring at him with her clear eyes.

Yu Tongchen reached into the bed and held her hand, "Sleep with you."

Shu Shiyu blinked and said, "Do you want to come up and sleep with me?"

Yu Tongchen was stunned. He found that his beloved woman was sometimes impulsive and reckless, like the last time she took the initiative to kiss him, and now she invited him to sleep with her.

"Qingqing, this sets a precedent. From now on, I will want to sleep with you all the time." Yu Tongchen gently stroked the back of her hand with his fingertips, his voice a little hoarse.

"Just tonight, if you don't come up then forget it." She turned her head away.

Hearing this, Yu Tongchen pressed down on one side of her quilt and hugged her through the quilt, "Go to sleep, Qingqing really trusts me."

"I believe in my own judgment." She rubbed the side of his neck affectionately.

Yu Tongchen pinched her face and said, "Well, Qingqing has a good eye."

"You're praising yourself in a roundabout way. Aren't you cold? There's a new quilt in the outer room. Go get it."

"Ah."

When Yu Tongchen came back, he saw her lying on her side, leaving half of the bed for herself, with her eyes closed.

Yu Tongchen got on the bed, leaned over and kissed her lips, and her eyelashes trembled.

With a smile on his lips, Yu Tongchen reached out to hug her and patted her back gently. She leaned against his cheek again and fell asleep in silence.

Estimating that the time was almost up, Yu Tongchen peeled her out of the quilt and said, "Qingqing, let's go and stay up until the New Year."

"Oh." Shu Shiyu leaned in his arms to wake up.

Seeing her so obedient and soft when she just woke up, Yu Tongchen's heart melted and he couldn't help but kiss her cheek.

She didn't move and let him kiss her.

After the daze subsided, Shu Shi put on his outer robe and urged Yu Tongchen to hurry up.

This is the first time that I don’t have to spend a cold and lonely New Year’s Eve. I feel comfortable and a little excited.

Seeing this, Yu Tongchen quickly tidied himself, wrapped her in a thick cloak, checked that everything was fine, and then took her hand and went out.

Bai Tong and Bai Xi kept looking towards the main house. Zi Ling advised them, "Don't worry. With my master here, Miss Shu will be well taken care of."

Before he met Miss Shu, he had never seen his master being so diligent and hands-on.

Seeing Yu Tongchen leading Shu Shiyu over, the two ran forward, "Miss!"

Shu Shiyu nodded, "Are you guys having fun?"

"Happy." They rarely have the chance to play so recklessly.

"That's good."

Yu Tongchen held Shu Shiyu in his arms and sat in front of the door of the main hall, talking to her in a low voice.

"Is it cold?"

"not cold."

"Tell me if you feel cold."

"it is good."

Looking at the matching figures of the two, Bai Xi couldn't help but sigh in his heart that after so many years of misfortune, the young lady finally had her own luck.

When the time comes, when the old and the new meet, countless small flowers bloom in the sky, colorful auspicious clouds come with the snow, fireworks burst into new colors, and firecrackers explode for the first time.

Her wrist felt slightly cool, and Shu Shi withdrew his gaze from mid-air, lowering his eyes to look at the red bean bracelet on her hand. The warm jade was carved and polished into the shape of red beans, strung into a bracelet and put on her wrist, which fit her perfectly.

The ruby ​​made her wrist look even more beautiful. The collision of red and jade white gave off a hint of tenderness in the brightness.

"Red beans express my love and we always miss each other. I wish you a safe, smooth and happy new year." There were fireworks all over the sky above his head and his smile was tender and gentle, even more captivating than the fireworks.

"My dear, I will live with you till you are a hundred years old."

Shu Shiyu tied the mandarin duck ruyi heart-shaped pendant she had prepared around his waist. The tassels swayed gently, like ripples in her heart. "Follow the times and enjoy everything."

"My mother's suicide note said that if I ever meet a man I like, I will give him this jade pendant."

"Yu Heguang, I've decided on you."

There will never be another man who can make her so happy as he does. He alone has amazed her all her years.

At that moment, in the sky full of stars, she could only see him.

Yu Tongchen held her fingers tightly, "I am honored to be recognized by you, Qingqing. Yu Tongchen will never let you down in this life."

Shu Shiyu hugged his waist, looked up at the fireworks rising high, the flames of various colors, and the smile on the corner of his mouth took a long time to disappear.

Meng Ziqian looked at the backs of the two men and silently stuffed a piece of toasted rice cake into his mouth, but was so burned that he quickly spat it into his hands and threw it around.

Even a piece of baked rice cake is against him!

Ziling handed the plate over speechlessly, "I thought you weren't afraid of the heat."

After watching most of the fireworks, Yu Tongchen carried Shu Shiyu back into the house.

The secret guards who were lying on the roof watching the fireworks in the snow and full of energy patted the snow off their bodies, jumped off the roof and quickly cleaned up the mess on the table one by one. Then those who were on duty went on duty, and those who were going to sleep went to sleep.

Shortly after the Spring Festival, the snow melted, new buds popped out from the branches, and young grass emerged from the ground tremblingly. The cold spring breeze heralded the arrival of warmth.

General Ling led his troops to repel the enemy for 300 miles, expanded the territory, and returned victoriously with great pride.

Shu Shi, who had already received the news that his grandfather was coming back, was in a very good mood these days, so good that he could hardly sleep.

Yu Tongchen looked at Shu Shiyu, who had gotten up early and couldn't concentrate on reading the storybook, and said helplessly, "Shang Lu has already gone to the capital. He will be able to come to the valley after the old general reports on his work."

"The external threat has been resolved, the old general is old, and the available generals in the court have grown up. Emperor Cheng should let him take off his armor."

"I know, I just haven't seen my grandfather for three years and I miss him very much." Before she met Yu Tongchen, her grandfather was the only person who treated her well.

My grandparents were deeply in love, and my mother was their only child. My mother was an old woman who fell in love with Shu Yan, a poor scholar at the time. So my grandfather sponsored him to study, and he eventually lived up to expectations and passed the exam. But no one expected that he was a wolf who killed his wife to make room for his lover.

Seeing her restless, unable to sleep or eat well, Yu Tongchen felt distressed. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her lips tenderly, "If everything goes well, it will take another five or six days. Qingqing, you are too excited now."

"It will be fine once I get over this excitement." Shu Shiyu also knew that he was a little too excited now.

"It's still cold now, my dear, don't get too excited, or you'll get sick, or you'll feel bad again."

Yu Tongchen took her to sit by the stove to warm herself, and kept asking her some trivial questions to divert her attention.

"Qingqing, you haven't been to my study yet? How about I take you there after lunch?"

"Okay, are all the medical books in your study?"

"Not all of them. There are the Four Books and Five Classics, essays, poems, travel notes, and miscellaneous books. If you are interested, you can take a look."

After a long wait, Ling Yao finally arrived at the Valley of Divine Doctors. Looking at his pretty granddaughter standing in front of him, even an old general who had fought on the battlefield could not help but have tears in his eyes.

"Qingqing, come here and let grandpa see you."

Upon hearing this, Shu Shiyu stood in front of him obediently and shouted, "Grandfather, Qingqing misses you so much."
