It was snowing during Laba.

Su Xueyin had just finished eating Laba porridge at noon, when she received an invitation card, which was sent by the old man of the Qin Family Village, saying that he was invited to the Snow Cottage on Luobi Mountain to have a gathering at night.

He was puzzled.What did Mr. Qin ask him to do?Although he has been in the village for four years and has settled many difficult matters for the village, he has an unusual relationship with the young master and a very good relationship with the girl, but old master Qin has never invited him out in private.What's more, he has the poison of cold in his body, and he is most afraid of cold and cold. In weather like this, he usually stays obediently in his Baoyue Pavilion, burns a stove, holds a few idle books, and just passes by like this.If you go out, even if you wear a heavy fur coat and a cotton hat that doesn't fit well, you will still be shivering from the cold, and you can hardly stand up, and it is difficult to hold yourself.Could it be because... a reason suddenly came to his mind, he frowned slightly, looking at the snow that was getting heavier and heavier outside the window, he thought to himself, no matter what, he had to go there at night.

In the evening, before it was dark, Su Xueyin left in a warm sedan chair.The Snow Cottage is built on the hillside of Luobi Mountain. It stands close to the mountain. It is small and exquisite, warm in winter and cool in summer. It is especially suitable for spending leisure time.But now he is not in the mood to watch the snowy scenery outside, nor is he in the mood to think about the warm breath of the Snow Cottage. He is just worried: The owner can't help it?You won't embarrass your son because of this, will you?

When he arrived, he had just shaken off the fine snowflakes from getting off the sedan chair to the door, and saw that the owner of Qin Zhuang had arrived, and Qin Feng was also there. Both of them had already sat down. With beef, mutton, vegetables, bamboo shoots, fungus and other dishes-it turned out to be cooking hot pot.He hastily bowed one by one and said, "Master, young master. I'm really sorry, Su is late."

"Hey, you're not late, that's what invited you," Qin Feng greeted, and then patted the seat he had prepared for him: "Sit down quickly, you must have been frozen from such a long distance, right?"

Su Xueyin didn't answer, but just looked at the owner.Qin Muming sat in a wheelchair and seemed to be asleep.Hearing this, he raised his eyes and said, "Mr. Su, you don't need to be polite, please sit down, there are no outsiders today."

Su Xueyin sat down after thanking her.You don't need to look to know that Qin Feng must be very satisfied with what his father said just now, and he is snickering.But he also knew that although the owner of the Qin villa looked kind, he was the number one owner in the world after all. It might not be easy for him to let him come here.At this time, he was thinking about the reason why the owner asked him to come here, and he didn't feel unwell, but because of the terrible weather and the half hour journey in the sedan chair, his face was pale, his breath was like gossamer, and his body shook slightly , wearing a loose fur coat, looks even more frail.

As soon as he sat down, he heard Qin Feng say: "You must be very cold, may I warm your hands for you?" As he spoke, he wanted to grab his hand.Su Xueyin hurriedly pushed it away: "My lord, I'm not cold."

After pushing it away, he seemed to be unintentionally watching the owner's reaction.But Master Qin didn't react at all, it seemed to be commonplace, and he was indulging in that kind of sleepy state.

Seeing this, Qin Feng shook his head helplessly, then smiled again, and gently stuffed a small hand-warming stove into his hand.Su Xueyin couldn't refuse anymore, so she had to accept it.

At this time, the door opened with a "squeak", and a girl of seventeen or eighteen came out from outside.She was wearing a big red cloak covered with small snowflakes outside, and there were two small red and white fur balls tied on her chest, which made her look even more cute and cute.

"Oh, it turned out to be me at the latest, so I have to apologize. Daddy, brother, Mr. Su, you have to show me some sympathy when you are fined later." She said with a sweet smile, and made three bows at once. .Su Xueyin hastily stood up and returned the salute: "Girl, you've really broken Su Mou, how can I bear it!" He didn't have anything to do with this stop, but because he was too hasty, the small furnace just fell down and landed on Qin Shuang and Su Xueyin. between.An invisible embarrassment was thus created.

Su Xueyin felt that old master Qin and Qin Feng were looking at him, and he couldn't help feeling guilty.There was a little cold sweat on his head.

But when Qin Shuang saw the small furnace, she didn't feel anything strange. She bent down to pick it up very naturally, and said with a smile, "This is stuffed by my brother, right? You should warm your hands carefully, and don't disappoint others' good intentions!"

Su Xueyin: "..."

As Qin Shuang spoke, she turned her head to look at Qin Feng. This made Qin Feng very angry, and gave her a blank look.

Qin Shuang was not affected by anything, and grabbed Su Xueyin's hand in return, and returned the small furnace to him, saying: "Mr. Su, why can't you bear it? Today is a family banquet, since I invite you to come, it means you You can be considered my brother!" There was a smile in his voice.Since receiving the news, she left the Shuangyuan of Qinjiazhuang on a jujube horse, and changed to a warm sedan chair at the foot of the mountain, but she was the last one to arrive.But there is Mr. Su in the family banquet, she is really the happiest one.

At this time, Qin Muming finally spoke up. It seemed that the matter of Xiaolu had nothing to do with him. He didn't say anything, but looked at Qin Shuang lovingly, and pretended to blame: "Naughty. Dinner is about to start, don't sit down yet " Qin Shuang giggled, sitting beside her father, looking at her brother and Mr. Su meaningfully.

The four sat together eating hot pot, but each had their own concerns.Su Xueyin didn't need to say much, Qin Feng thought about how his father would interrupt him or change the subject if he was talking about the meal; Qin Shuang was overjoyed at the thought that his father had finally enlightened.And Mr. Qin just wanted to take a meal to see Su Xueyin's physical condition, and by the way, see how far they are.

Qin Shuang drank the sweet and sour green plum wine, while the others drank the unique Luobi Yinlu in the village.

Everyone ate at a leisurely pace, but it was a little awkward. Only Qin Shuang raised the topic and adjusted the atmosphere.She seemed to have nothing to do, laughing and joking, but she also made everyone agree and respond, so she wouldn't be cold.

After drinking for three rounds, the dishes on the table always disappeared. Although the waiter next to him was still serving the dishes, everyone had enjoyed themselves and no longer had much appetite. The dinner naturally came to an end.

At this time, Qin Muming said: "It's so cold today, I'm really sorry to invite Mr. Su here. But I think Mr. Su has been in Zhuangzi for almost four years, and he has done many things for Zhuangzi. He has such a good relationship with Feng'er and Shuang'er. Well, you are so young, in fact, I have long regarded you as my son in private, today Laba, I invite you to have a family dinner, don't you mind?"

"Thanks to the owner's kindness, Su is very grateful, why would you mind?" Su Xueyin said, "Young master and girls are dragons and phoenixes among people, and it is Su's blessing to meet them, besides, the son has saved my life. Rescuing me from Hu Yanpo back then, visiting famous doctors to treat my poison and wounds, even if I did a few things for Zhuangzi, it would be difficult to repay me. It's just that the owner said I was young and regarded me as his son, I really dare not be that. ’ He tried to be as sincere as possible.

"You don't have to be polite, Mr. Su. I'm very pleased that Feng'er has a friend like you. Well, I think this meal is almost done. You can't stand the cold, so you should go back and rest early." Said After finishing, he said directly to Qin Feng: "Feng'er, you and Mr. Su go back together."

Both Su Xueyin and Qin Feng were taken aback.Even Qin Shuang, who was next to him, was puzzled: Did Dad ask me to stay?let them go?Still go together?What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?

It was Su Xueyin who was the first to react, stood up to salute, and backed away.Qin Feng followed up with an "oh" before he understood, and thought, "Father let him go like this, so naturally he happily went after Su Xueyin."

Qin Muming retreated the waiters around, leaving only Qin Shuang and him in the room.

After a while of silence, Qin Muming spoke up: "Your brother and Su Xueyin, what do you think?" He wandered in the rivers and lakes in his early years, and later founded Qinjiazhuang. .As for the Qin Family Village, he already had more than enough heart and energy, so he entrusted full authority to his son to manage it.But this matter is related to his son's life, and he has to take care of it.

Qin Shuang put her chin in her hands, thought for a while, and said with a grin, "It's pretty good. I not only have a sister-in-law, but also a brother, I think it's pretty good."

Qin Muming sighed, "I saw it all today. I also came from his age. I didn't want to stop him. It's just that as the owner and father, I always have some concerns."

"How many concerns? Dad is worried about Mr. Su's health?"

"More than that," Qin Muming said worriedly, "From the owner's point of view, first, it is impossible for the Qin family to have no successors in the future, but your brother will not marry for a long time because of Mr. Su; second, the Qin family is the number one in the world." Zhuang, it is natural that you care about your reputation in the world, but your brother is not tolerated by the world. From my perspective as a father, I naturally hope that your brother will live happily in this life, but one is that I am afraid that your brother will risk the disgrace of the world. Second, Mr. Su is a person with no past now, but what if he remembers one day? If his conduct was bad, we can still change it. If he had a family, your brother And how should we deal with ourselves? Thirdly, even if the two of them get what they want, if Mr. Su suffers from a cold poison, and the weather will not be a holiday, I am afraid that not only will your brother not be able to achieve consummation, but he will also suffer emotional injuries."

Qin Shuang listened quietly, her original happy state of mind suddenly disappeared.

It has been four years since Mr. Su was rescued, but He Banfeng said that he would not survive five years.

It is said that when he was just rescued, he was poisoned with a strange poison, his breathing was weak, he was in a severe coma, and his mind was also in a daze.After visiting He Bankuang several times, I realized that he was suffering from cold poison.This is the secret poison of Fu Luotang, the killer organization in Jianghu. It is extracted from the cultivated Liehan bee and put on people. Although it is chronic, it affects people's mind and appearance, and can also invade the lungs. If it is not cured in a month Can die.The pain of a poisoned person is like hundreds of thousands of bees biting themselves.And if there is no antidote, this poison cannot be eradicated.

Strange to say, Fu Luo's poison had already been destroyed by the main hall master Yu Luocha and the second hall master Hua Raksha a year ago at that time, even the antidote was destroyed.The reason for this should be the internal contradictions in Fu Luo Tang, which is not enough for outsiders.

In order to save him, He Banfeng spent a lot of effort.The bone was broken and the skin was removed, his appearance was changed, and he was treated with various medicines. After four months of treatment, he gradually regained consciousness.After he woke up, he couldn't remember why he went to Hu Yanpo, and he couldn't remember any relatives, whether he had a home, or who he was.He only knew that his name was Su Xueyin.

My brother has been curious about this for a long time, and has been inquiring about his family members, but for a whole year, there are more than 200 cloth shops, tea houses, and restaurants in Qinjiazhuang, but there is no news.Over time, this has become an unsolvable mystery.

Qin Shuang was immersed in her own thoughts and did not speak for a long time.

Qin Muming suddenly said: "What do you think of Mr. Su?"

Qin Shuang came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "The first time I saw Mr. Su was in March in spring. He got off the carriage and was still wearing a thick fur coat. Oh, I wonder why it's so cold It’s spring and they are still wearing thick clothes. At that time, I was far away, and when I walked in, I realized that there are such good-looking men in the world. Hey, it’s no wonder that my brother likes it..."

She spoke more and more cheerfully, and didn't notice that she was digressing.Qin Muming coughed lightly: "I'm asking about character."

"Oh", Qin Shuang scratched his head and stuck out his tongue to relieve the embarrassment, "very good. She looks beautiful but not lacking in heroic spirit, speaks nicely but is not flattering, neither humble nor arrogant, self-respecting, gentle and magnanimous. As for His resourcefulness can be seen from the few things he has handled. I see, if Mr. Su is a woman, you must agree with my brother to marry her."

Qin Mu took a look at his daughter, and said with deep doubts: "Then Mr. Su is probably not an ordinary person. Four years ago, who would go to Hu Yanpo? Who can get the cold poison that has disappeared? Who can let the Qin family Zhuang has been investigating for a year and there is no news? Who can be unparalleled in appearance and resourcefulness?"

Qin Shuang said with a smile: "Daddy is suspicious. Mr. Su is the killer of Fu Luotang? I don't think so. Although Mr. Su looks very beautiful, but that is his face after he has been beaten to the bone. What he looks like, except for his elder brother , we don't know. Although he is unparalleled in resourcefulness, he is extremely weak and has no power to restrain a chicken. How could he be a killer? Besides, I think an ordinary person who has nothing to do with the world, because of something, broke into Hu Yanpo, and by chance It is a rare thing to be found out by the Qin Family Manor after contracting the cold poison!"

Qin Muming did not speak. For four years, he has been thinking, who is Su Xueyin?If he really planned something, why is there no movement?Could it be that the Qin Family Manor is too big for him to eat all of a sudden?But Su Xueyin has been loyal to Zhuangzi for the past four years, and it is also true that he is extremely weak, has no strength to restrain a chicken, has a cold poison in his body, and cannot live for five years.

He didn't think about it, he simply didn't want to, just tilted his head and asked Qin Shuang: "If I stop your brother and force him to get married, what will happen to him?"

"I don't know. But I want to ask, if Mr. Su is really not a crooked person, and his cold poison can be cured, and he can live a long life, will daddy stop it?"

Qin Muming remained silent.

"Daddy, do you think the reputation of the Qin family village is more important than your brother?" Qin Shuang was anxious.

"Of course not. Hey, Shuang'er, do you have a plan for his poison?"

"No." Qin Shuang hastily denied, raising her glass, "Oh, this sweet and sour plum wine is really delicious!"

Qin Muming didn't speak, but looked at his daughter kindly.

Here, since Qin Feng caught up with Su Xueyin outside the door, he said he wanted to send Su Xueyin back.Su Xueyin tried to persuade the guy by talking nonsense.On the way back, he was in the mood to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, and looking at the snowy scenery outside, he seemed to feel much more at ease.

The author has something to say: It was a long time ago, when I was very young, I always liked to have unrealistic dreams.As I grow older, I feel too naive in retrospect.I have given up on this story many times in my heart, but when I am bored, I always think of it inevitably.

In the previous year, I was thinking about the development progress of this story, and a character appeared in my mind inexplicably.His appearance disrupted all the plots of the story, and even changed the fate of all the main characters.I don't know how I came here, I was a little flustered, I felt that the development of the story was out of my control, and I wanted to delete him several times.After thinking about it several times, I finally felt helpless: once he appeared, he could no longer be ignored.Two days ago, I dreamed that the character in the story appeared in a snowy night wearing a fur coat and holding an umbrella.My god, it's unbelievable.But I suddenly felt that it was time to tell this story.Maybe my writing is limited and I can't tell what's in my heart, but I will do my best to tell this story more beautifully.
