Yun Yiruo stood in the yard with her hands in her pockets, her eyes attracted by the exquisite courtyard.

The courtyard with black walls and tiles is quiet and elegant. Raindrops fall from the sky, sprinkling on the bluestone road and slightly spreading out.

In the small pond, several red koi fish swam in the ripples of rain, their tails swaying gently, like elves in the water.

In the center of the pond, there are exquisite pavilions, carved wooden pillars, and corridors that circle the pond, making the entire courtyard look poetic and picturesque.

Yun Yiruo was so fascinated by what she saw that she rolled up her sleeves and leaned over to the water's edge.

The red carp in the water swam away nimbly under the reflection of her fingertips, stirring up small splashes of water.

Just as I was thinking about how to catch a koi, I suddenly heard the old lady's urgent voice behind me: "Ouch! Little ancestor, get out of the water! It's very cold today, what should I do if my hands are frozen?"

Before he finished speaking, an umbrella was placed over Yun Yiruo's head. Old Man Yun walked over slowly, holding the umbrella in his hand, with a doting look between his eyebrows.

"Just tell me if you want to play. Don't try to catch them. I'll grab a few with a net and put them in the house for you to play with."

The old lady burst out laughing when she heard this: "Why are you so generous today?"

"Don't they say that if you feed the fish an extra spoonful of food, you have to go into the water and scoop it out yourself?"

"Can that be the same?"

Mr. Yun raised his eyebrows, his tone somewhat smug.

"Other people feeding the fish disturbs their peace, but if children want to play with them, that's a blessing for the koi!"

These words made Yun Yiru burst into laughter, and the old lady couldn't help shaking her head: "You old man, it's still raining outside, come inside quickly, don't catch a cold."

As she spoke, she bent down to pick up the hairpin that had fallen on the ground, carefully wiped the rain off it and put it in her pocket.

"What time will uncle and aunt arrive tomorrow? Can we go pick them up?"

"can."

Old Master Yun picked up Yun Yiru and turned to walk into the house.

"We'll probably arrive around 6pm."

Yun Yiruo hugged the old man's neck, her smile still on her face, but her eyes fell through the rain on the place where her sister left, as if she was expecting something, but also seemed to have some different emotions.

The warm lights in the house were on, the sound of rain faded away, and a touch of warmth permeated the tranquility of the courtyard. The room that had been prepared for many years was finally waiting for its owner.

After returning to the house, Yun Yiruo kicked off her shoes and threw them casually, and the shoes slid into the corner next to the door.

Those bright eyes locked onto him instantly, and he shouted excitedly, "Uncle, where can I find something delicious?"

The crisp sound echoed in the spacious room, flowing into people's hearts like a clear spring.

As soon as I stepped into the door, my attention shifted from the delicious food to a corner of the living room, where there was a cabinet full of snacks.

Old Master Yun shook his head with a smile and took out a large paper bag from the cabinet, which was filled with specialties brought back from Haicheng.

As soon as the bag was opened, a sweet smell of pastries wafted into my nose.

The old lady also walked to the table, reached out and picked up a box of exquisite pastries, and said with a smile: "Try this, many young people like it."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of crispy butterfly pastry, gently broke off a small piece, and handed it to Yun Yiru.

Yun Yiruo took a light bite, and the crispy crust and sweet white sugar immediately melted in her mouth. Her eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly.

"Wow, it's delicious! I want more!"

As she spoke, her little hands could not wait to reach for the next piece. The old lady smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into a line, and she hurriedly took out another piece of Qingtuan from another box.

The green skin has a crystal luster.

He broke off a little and handed it over: "Try this one, the one with egg yolk and pork floss filling."

Yun Yiruo ate the qingtuan in big mouthfuls, praising it incoherently: "It's so sticky and delicious!"

The nine tails were wagging happily from the moment they entered the door. At this time, they were swinging like small fans, filling the whole house with joy.

The old man was busy opening another bag of snacks.

While dismantling the box, he took out some small handicrafts and showed them: "Look, I wasn't kidding you, there are not only delicious food, but also fun things."

As he spoke, he took out a few small turtles made of shells from the bag, and also a night light that could emit a faint light.

Yun Yiruo couldn't let go of these little gadgets, her cheeks flushed with excitement.

The old lady continued to break each snack into small pieces and handed them to Yun Yiruo's mouth as if she was feeding a child.

The two old men watched them eat happily, and their hearts were warm. For many years, this huge house had always seemed deserted, but now it was filled with laughter and joy.

They looked at each other, their eyes full of relief.

The wind outside the house blew the curtains, and the bells in the distance rang leisurely, as if accompanying this warmth and liveliness.

Yun Yiru's tail wagged faster and faster, and the smile on her face seemed to be overflowing, and this moment became the warmest memory in the old woman's heart.

Yun Yiruo took a small bite of the fresh meat mooncake, her cheeks puffed up slightly, and there was a sesame seed on the corner of her mouth.

He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, looked at the two old men with bright eyes, and his voice was soft but full of seriousness.

"I...I'm going to prepare gifts for you too!"

After she finished speaking, her tail moved secretly, as if hiding some little secret.

Then, he quietly took out two small bags of tea. The bags were wrapped in silk and tied with a thin gold thread, which looked particularly exquisite.

However, the portion is really pitifully small, probably only enough to make a pot of tea.

Yun Yiruo raised her face and smiled like a kitten that had stolen some fish: "Mother-in-law, this bag of fruit and flower tea is for you.

As for this bag…” He blinked and handed the other bag to the old man.

"This is tea for uncle. I don't know what it's called, but it smells really good and special!"

After hearing this, the two old men's eyes were filled with fondness and joy, and they quickly took the tea.

The old lady carefully opened a bag, leaned in to smell it, and sure enough, a fresh and soft floral fragrance hit her face. The fragrance seemed a little sweet, but not greasy, clear and warm.

"Oh, this scented tea is really good! It makes me feel relaxed just by smelling it. What kind of fruit scent is this?

I've never seen it before!" The old lady raised her head and asked Yun Yiru with a smile.

Yun Yiruo chuckled and shook her head: "Hehe, it's a secret!"

"However, these two bags of tea have the effect of helping you sleep and calming your mind. You won't be unable to sleep!"

The old man couldn't wait to open his bag of tea.

Taking a deep breath, his eyebrows relaxed, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "Good tea!"

This aroma is unusual, like honey, but not entirely. There is a faint hint of something else, high and mellow."

As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of tea leaves and rubbed them gently with his fingertips. The tea leaves were flexible and elastic, obviously of excellent quality.

"Uncle, please make some tea! I want to try it too!"
