Chapter 22 Gentle Gentleman x Tough Peasant Girl (21)

It was New Year's Eve, a lively day, but it had nothing to do with Ye Zi.

In the morning, Mrs. He sent New Year's money and told Ye Zi that there were many people in her yard and she was afraid that the noise would disturb her, so there was no need for her to come again.

Jiang Zhiyi understood what Mrs. He meant. She didn't go anywhere that day, and He Qinggui was the only one in the yard today.

It was not Jiang Zhiyi's turn to put up New Year's gifts or clean the house.

Red lanterns were hung up and the sound of firecrackers was far away from Tingzhuyuan.

Jiang Zhiyi sighed inwardly that Tingzhuyuan was originally a very popular place because of its beautiful scenery and its proximity to the mistress's courtyard.

But since I moved in, it has become completely peaceful.

It’s also thanks to the fact that I’m a tasker. If I were Ye Zi, I would probably be depressed.

The He family is going to worship their ancestors, and I don’t know what He Qinggui is busy with. Don’t get too tired and can’t come tomorrow.

The He family does not stay up all night to celebrate the New Year's Eve, but rather to waste time. On New Year's Eve, the lights are kept on all night long, and candles are lit in all the houses. They even have special candles lit under the beds, and all over the house.

In ancient times, ordinary people simply could not afford it.

After the noisy and lively New Year’s Eve dinner, the He family returned to their respective courtyards, and each family had its own interesting stories.

But this year, the eldest branch of the He family has become deserted and has never been very lively.

He Xianchu was still unable to get out of bed. The head and young master of the He family were both busy with work, so Mrs. He could only sit alone in the Buddhist hall.

Tianqi glanced at his brothers beside him and said, "Tianyu, what do you think the young master is thinking about?"

It was already midnight, and the lights had illuminated the sky in a warm yellow. The white light in Yuqingzhu's study seemed a little abrupt, but He Qinggui was still working at his desk.

Tianyu quietly leaned over and said, "I think the master has a special affection for Miss Ye. The master is the one who values ​​rules the most and has never violated any house rules. But he has already violated two house rules for her.

I specially prepared meals for Miss Ye and asked me to deliver them to her. In order to tutor her in the piano that even dogs hate, I lost so much time during the day and could only make up for it at night. "

Tian Qi's expression became serious. "Every holiday is the busiest time for you. I would rather you not have a holiday. Now you are even busier because of Miss Ye. What if your body can't handle it?"

Tianyu changed the subject again: "I guess you might be interested in Miss Ye."

Tian Qi's eyes widened. "That's impossible. Sir, you have seen all kinds of beautiful ladies with both talent and virtue. Miss Ye can only be considered somewhat cute."

Tianyu made a bold guess: "Could it be that the young master has seen too many beautiful girls since he was a child, so he doesn't like those who are good-looking anymore?"

Tian Qi nodded seriously after hearing this: "It's possible. I think the young master will be whipped for this Miss Ye sooner or later."

The stars were shining in the night sky, and it was snowing heavily on New Year's Eve. The snow was not accompanied by rain, and it seemed particularly gentle.

Maybe because he was too worried yesterday, he got up a little late today. It was not until the morning that Bai Zhi almost came to wake Jiang Zhiyi up.

Staying in bed on New Year's Day is not a good sign.

After Jiang Zhiyi finished cleaning up, he came to the yard. Looking at the kumquats covered with white snow, he came up with an idea.

As soon as He Qinggui stepped into Tingzhuyuan, he saw a red ball. Leaf was squatting in front of a kumquat tree, looking for something, with a fiery red cloak with a snow-white furry edge.

Ye Zi heard someone coming behind her and turned around to look. The bell in her hair made a pleasant jingling sound.

She saw that it was He Qinggui, whose round eyes were like bright stars and whose smile was as beautiful as a flower.

"He Qinggui, come here quickly, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

He Qinggui squatted obediently beside her. It was New Year's Day and he rarely wore bright clothes. The cherry-colored clothes made him look like a jade sculpture.

"Then I will come earlier tomorrow."

Ye Zi nodded repeatedly: "Yes, please come earlier tomorrow. I know you will come at 9:00 pm, so I have been thinking about when you will arrive since 7:00 pm. It would be great if I could see you as soon as I wake up."

There was no shyness on Ye Zi's face, just a serious expression.

She didn't know what love was, and no one taught her. She only knew that she could see He Qinggui as soon as she opened her eyes after waking up.

Being with him makes me happy even if I do nothing.

He Qinggui lowered his head and smiled softly, and the curve at the corner of his eyes became even more beautiful.

"How childish."

Ye Zi was unhappy. She glared at him and tried her best to show her seriousness.

"Why are you talking like that again? I'm 14 years old, and I'll be 15 soon after the Chinese New Year. You and I are only one year apart in age. You can't treat me like a child."

He Qinggui thought to himself that age couldn't be calculated in this way, but he still agreed with Ye Zi.

"Yes, Ye Zi is only one year younger than me now. I can't treat you like a child."

Ye Zi sighed and gave up trying to change his mind.

"You're treating me like a child when you say that. How can I be like a child?"

Ye Zi felt a little lost, but she soon regained her energy, so He Qinggui's words of comfort were blocked in his heart.

"Guess what I'm going to do?"

He Qinggui glanced at the kumquat tree that looked very attractive and smiled happily.

"Let me guess, you want to eat kumquats from the kumquat tree?"

Ye Zi smiled and shook her head, revealing two very shallow dimples, with a smug smile in her eyes.

"I told you not to act like an adult. You guessed wrong. I didn't mean to eat it."

He Qinggui asked seriously: "So what does Miss Ye want to do?"

Ye Zi pointed at He Qinggui's eyes.

"Please use your eyes to pick out the biggest kumquat for me, and I'll tell you, I've been looking for a long time and still can't pick one."

He Qinggui didn't know what Ye Zi wanted to do, but he was willing to cooperate with her game, and didn't think it was offensive for Ye Zi to point at him.

The two servants behind him were left staring at each other with wide eyes.

He Qinggui was picking carefully. His hands were long and straight, as white as snow, his nails were light pink, and he wore a dark green jade ring on his right thumb. He was looking for the largest kumquat among the emerald green kumquat tree.

After careful observation, He Qinggui confirmed it, and he held the kumquat in his palm.

He said to Ye Zi gently: "Look, this orange is the biggest one."

Ye Zi moved closer and looked carefully at the kumquat held in He Qinggui's palm.

With one final word, he took it off and gently scraped He Qinggui's palm with his fingertips.

"That's it!"

Ye Zi pulled He Qinggui up, held his wrist through the cloth, and walked to the corridor.

Baizhi had already placed a table and two stools in the corridor. They were soft cloth stools, which were more comfortable to sit on.

After squatting there for a while, Ye Zi asked the maid to leave and not ask them to hold an umbrella, so a lot of snow fell on her hair.

He Qinggui saw Ye Zi squatting there alone, so he naturally didn't let the servant boy holding an umbrella get close to her. As a result, her inky hair was covered with snow, making her look even less like a mortal.

Seeing He Qinggui like this, Ye Zi no longer cared about etiquette and simply stood on tiptoe to gently brush away the white snow on his hair.

He Qinggui's eyes were as clear as lake water, and his thick but not curled eyelashes made his eyes look unspeakably gentle.

Ye Zi also breathed a sigh of relief.

He asked her, "What's wrong?"

He Qinggui also brushed away the snow from her hair. He was much taller than her, so it was easier for him to do this.

Ye Zi looked at He Qinggui who was patting the snow for her, with some sadness in her eyes.

"I just saw the snow covering your hair. I feel like you are going to fly up to the sky. The sky is cold, so you should not fly up there."

He Qinggui smiled and assured Ye Zi, his tone gentle but firm.

"Okay, I promise you, I won't leave this world and go to heaven."
