Chapter 47: Making Snowmen, the Lou Family’s Plum Blossom Viewing Banquet

"It's snowing. How beautiful! Miss, it snowed heavily last night."

As soon as Nan Yan woke up, she heard Ginkgo's excited voice coming from outside the door.

Then the door creaked, and Ginkgo Yinling pushed open the door and walked in holding a wash basin. The hot water in the basin was still steaming.

"Really? Let me see."

Nan Yan stood up, walked over and opened the window. A gust of cold wind blew in, and she shivered instantly in her pajamas.

Looking around, apart from the dark green bamboo, the outside is vast white. The white sunlight shines on the snow, and the snow without a trace of impurities is sparkling.

There have been a few snowfalls in the past, but not much. The snow that fell last night was two feet thick.

"Miss, it's cold outside, please close the window quickly and change your clothes so we can enjoy the view."

Yinling closed the window, immediately blocking out the cold wind. The floor heating in the house was very warm, and Nanyan was reluctant to go out on weekdays.

After breakfast, Nan Yan was in a good mood and wanted to move around. "Yinling Ginkgo, do you want to make a snowman?"

The two little girls were young after all, and when they heard it, their eyes lit up immediately, and they said in unison: "Miss, yes."

"Let's go build a snowman."

Nan Yan waved his hand, stood up, put on a cloak, and put on a pair of cowhide gloves with rabbit fur inside, which was very warm.

She asked Yinling Ginkgo to ask others if they wanted to build a snowman together. As a result, the other six maids and Madam Liu were divided into two groups, Yinling Ginkgo and Nanyan were in one group, and they competed.

Nan Yan: "The first prize is three taels of silver, the second prize is two taels of silver, and the third prize is one tael of silver. Okay, let's get started!"

In the past few months, Nan Yan treated the servants in the yard very gently and had a good temper, and sometimes even joked with them.

Everyone likes her very much and they are usually tactful when they are with her but there is no sense of distance.

"Wow! Miss is so nice." When they heard there was a reward, their faces were ready to go, determined to do their best to win.

"Hurry, hurry, let's shovel the snow together first."

"You guys pile it up, and I'll make the pile below smoother."

"Oh, they are so fast! They have piled it up so high."

"Hurry, hurry, let's go faster."

"Miss, please stack it slower!"

"..."

Suddenly, the yard was bustling with activity.

Ruan Yurou heard the noise in Nanyan's yard from a distance. When she came in, she saw that the little girls in the yard were making a snowman.

Nan Yan accidentally turned around and saw Ruan Yurou at the gate of the yard. She called out, "Mom."

Then she turned around and continued to make a snowman. She was very competitive and was a strong woman all her life.

"Hello, Madam." The others also bowed to Ruan Yurou and hurriedly made a snowman.

Ruan Yurou was infected by their laughter and sat in the living room watching them make a snowman.

In the end, Nanyan Yinling Ginkgo won.

Although the others didn't win, they all got prize money and were extremely happy.

After entering the house, Nan Yan took off her gloves and cloak. She was so happy just now that she could feel sweat on her back.

Nan Yan sat down next to Ruan Yurou and said, "Mom, it's snowing so heavily outside, why did you come here?"

"The snow on the road has been shoveled away." Ruan Yurou poured a cup of hot tea for Nan Yan, "Hurry up and drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."

Nan Yan took the tea and continued, "Mrs. Lou sent an invitation to hold a plum blossom viewing banquet on December 15th and invited us to attend."

In previous years, the Lou family would also hold a plum blossom viewing banquet, but Ruan Yurou had no interest in participating and had never been there.

Because Nan Yu was a classmate of Lou Yu, Nan Yan was somewhat familiar with the Lou family. Mrs. Lou was a dignified and elegant person with a good temper.

"Mother, I know."

All the snow in the yard had been shoveled away, leaving only three snowmen standing in the yard, which was also a unique landscape.

?

Four days later, the Lou family held a plum blossom viewing banquet.

It has been snowing these days. Today, the weather is clear, the sun is shining white, and the temperature outside is freezing cold.

Even though Nan Yan was wrapped tightly, with only a pair of beautiful eyes showing, one could still see her extraordinary temperament and good figure.

She went there with Ruan Yurou and Nan Yu.

Seeing Nan Yan, Nan Yu's eyes lit up, and she ran to Nan Yan, tilted her fair little face and said, "Sister, you look better today than yesterday."

Nan Yan touched Nan Yu's little head and said, "You look very handsome today."

Nan Yu's eyes narrowed with laughter.

Ruan Yurou came over with a smile, "Okay, you two siblings, stop complimenting each other, it's time for us to set off."

Nan Yan and Nan Yu smiled at each other, holding Ruan Yurou's arms on the left and right, and said in unison: "Mom, you are also very beautiful today."

Ruan Yurou glared at the two of them and said, "If you two make fun of me again, I will be angry."

But the smile she couldn't suppress proved that she was very happy now.

"Okay, okay, Mom, let's stop talking and go!" Nan Yan echoed Ruan Yurou.

Lord Lou is the Imperial Censor, and the two houses are not far from each other, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to get there by carriage.

As soon as they got off the carriage, the housekeeper came up to greet them, "Greetings to Madam Nan, Miss Nan, and Second Master Nan."

Ruan Yurou: "No need to be so polite, Housekeeper Lou."

Housekeeper Lou asked a maid to take a few people to the Plum Blossom Garden where the Plum Blossom Banquet was being held. On the way, they met a few ladies who were walking towards the Plum Blossom Garden.

Walking into the Plum Blossom Garden, the first thing Nan Yan saw was a very large plum garden and the faint fragrance of plum blossoms. There was a thick layer of snow in the plum garden, and the plum blossoms bloomed alone in the white world, adding a touch of color to the whole garden, which was very beautiful.

Nan Yan finally understood the words, "I have no intention of struggling for spring, I just let the flowers be jealous."

Lou Yu saw Nan Yan and the others first. His eyes lit up and he ran over with a smile. He first greeted Ruan Yurou very politely, "Hello, Madam Nan."

Then he looked at Nan Yan, his beautiful eyes full of sincerity, "Sister Nan, you are as beautiful as usual today."

The little brat has a sweet mouth! Nan Yan couldn't help but laugh.

This little guy often follows Nan Yu to the Nan family. Whenever he sees Nan Yan, he praises her in various ways.

Nan Yan also praised back, "You are as handsome as usual today."

At this time, Madam Lou came over, grabbed Lou Yu who was about to speak and said, "You are a very sharp-eyed child. You came here just by calling me."

She smiled at Ruan Yurou and said, "Mrs. Nan, please come in."

Madam Lou led Nan Yan and the others into the gravel path of the plum forest and entered the house in the middle of the plum forest. There were already quite a few people inside, gathering in groups of three or four to chat.

Madam Lou called out to Lou Xinyue who was not far away, "Xinyue, come here."

Lou Xinyue, who was chatting with her friend, turned around and saw the unignorable figure next to Mrs. Lou, who was so outstanding.

Mrs. Lou was waving. She hated Nan Yan and didn't want to go over, but she had to.

She glared at Nan Yan and walked over reluctantly.

Nan Yan felt really speechless. She had never spoken to this Lou Xinyue before, and every time they met, she acted as if she had offended her.

Lou Xinyue came over and asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Lou: "Xinyue, if you young people have something to say, take Miss Nan to chat with you young people."
