Xiao Fang drove Gu Xiao to the holiday resort, in front of the villa booked by Ji's family.

After Gu Xiao went out, he sent a message to Xu Qing.Xu Qing estimated the time and waited for her at the gate of the villa in advance.

With the warmth of the car heater, Gu Xiao got out of the car on a winter night and gave Xu Qing a hug.

She whispered: "It's snowing."

Xu Qing raised her hand to brush off the snowflakes that fell on her shoulders in just a few steps, "It's so rare, it will snow this year."

In winter in Mingcheng, zero degrees and snow are two different things.

Even if the temperature is below freezing, it may not necessarily snow.If you are unlucky, you may not see snow for several years in a row.

"Come in."

Xu Qing led her in.

The wide-screen TV in the middle of the living room played the Spring Festival Gala as the background sound, the four parents, brother and sister-in-law were playing cards, and Ji He was holding a mobile phone on the sofa.

"What are you doing?"

"Played online for a while. Just as you were coming, he was calling for Li Sinian to come online."

As time passed toward zero, the snow outside the window grew bigger and bigger, from small particles to large, thin flakes.

Ji Hyuk was in high spirits, "We can build a snowman tomorrow."

Li Ersan was caught as a strong man and went to set off firecrackers with his cousin, but he had no choice but to go offline.

The remaining three people dispersed for a while, Ji He dropped his phone angrily, "Stop playing! Am I here to eat dog food? No way!"

He simply concentrated on watching the Spring Festival Gala, complaining while watching.

At the end of the round, Xu Qing took out the adoption coupon she had drawn before dinner and showed it to Gu Xiao.

"Wow! It's amazing!"

Gu Xiao held the coupon in both hands, "Shall we go adopt tomorrow?"

"Ok!"

Xu Qing was also very happy.

When it was midnight, with the countdown to zero on the TV, Ji's father and mother took out the red envelopes they had prepared a long time ago, one for each.

Gu Xiao also has it.

After the elders distributed the red envelopes, it was Ji Xian's turn to distribute them.

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year."

Xu Qing responded softly, with countless stars shining in her eyes.

This is home.

He suddenly understood the meaning of "this place of peace of mind is my hometown", and he was no longer homeless, looking back, the way he came from was also open and clear.

He walked quietly to the window and pushed open a small gap.

Gu Xiao followed his steps, stopped in front of the window, stood beside him, and accompanied him to watch the real and flawless snow whistling and rolling up in the gap of the window.

Xu Qing looked at it for a moment, then stretched out her hand out of the window, catching snowflakes one after another, and felt them melt in her palm.

When he withdrew his hand, Gu Xiao squeezed a paper towel and covered it, wiped off the snowy water between his palms and fingers, and warmed it up.

Does it look good?

good looking.

It is not mandatory to stay up all night to watch the new year, and it is enough to say the first New Year's blessing after midnight.

Staying up late hurts your body.

There is still a vacant room in the villa, which happens to be for Gu Xiao to live in.

Xu Qing sent Gu Xiao to the door of the room.

Xu Qing: "See you tomorrow?"

Gu Xiao: "See you tomorrow, good night."

The heavy snow that had been pouring all night stopped when the sun came out. The snow had not yet melted, and a thick layer of crystal clear was spread on the ground, eaves, and tree branches.

Considering that the sun rises longer, the snow will gradually melt.Xu Qing arranged the adoption trip in the afternoon, and in the morning they used the snow in the open space beside the villa to build a snowman.

Ai Ai moved a chair and sat watching them pile up.

The other three adults still have childlike innocence, and they also come to build a snowman together.

After piles and piles, Xiaoxue had a bulging body. With a swish of Ji He, a small snowball hit the elder brother Ji Xian.

Ji Xian flicked away, "A snowball fight?"

Xu Qing, who quietly rubbed the little snowman's head, was affected. Gu Xiao joined the battlefield and besieged the eldest brother with Ji He.

Xu Qing stopped, watched the battle for a few seconds, and joined the battle, making sure every miss.

All of a sudden, the elder brother Ji Xian was besieged by three people, so he was in a panic.

He said helplessly, "Dad, Mom, don't watch the show! Is it so good? Come and help me!"

After the snowball fight happily, the coats of several people were soaked, so they had to go back to the house and change one before continuing to make snowmen.

The sun climbed up little by little, and the snowman ticked and melted, like a fleeting phantom.

At noon, the sky was a bit overcast, with hazy white clouds covering the sun.

Gu Xiao pressed Xu Qing, added a piece of clothes to him, and the two went out.

I asked Ji He, and he was determined not to go, preferring to grow mushrooms in the villa.

So only the two of them went.

There is a special pick-up car in the resort, taking them to the destination on the adoption voucher.

The first thing I went to was the Floral Art Center. Although it was winter, there were hundreds of flowers blooming in the warm greenhouse.

After walking for half an hour, I took a rough look at the group of flowers.

Gu smiled and asked, "Anyone you like?"

Xu Qing shook his head.

It's still practical.

They left the greenhouse and went to the orchard.

The orchard is at the outermost edge of the resort, and there are sporadically two or three tourists picking in it at the moment.

The receptionist of the orchard led them in and introduced each fruit tree carefully.

In a stone altar, there are green cactus with small red fruits on the top.

"Can this one be adopted?"

The receptionist looked at Xu Qing's fingers and smiled, "Yes, cactus, adoption means adopting a whole jar. What we give away are the cactus fruits that grow on it, which are edible."

Xu Qing looked away.

Immediately, he was caught by Kazuki's small white flowers.

He stepped forward.

The branches are dull red, very thin, not thick, it should be a tree that has just been planted not long ago.

There are clusters of white flowers on the branches, either blooming or shy.

The body of the stamen is also white, thin and long, with a little golden star on the top, scattered in all directions, against the five white petals, pitiful and lovely.

The receptionist introduced at the right time: "This is a newly transplanted plum tree last year. It hasn't bear fruit yet, so it has to go in June."

Gu Xiao noticed Xu Qing's earnest gaze on the side face, knowing that he liked it, observed carefully for a while, and suggested: "Adopt it?"

It was exactly what Xu Qing wanted.

He nodded and gave the adoption coupon to the host, "Adopt it."

The receptionist waved, and the staff who grew the fruit trees came over, hung a small sign for the plum tree, and handed Xu Qing a pen, "You can choose a name now."

naming……

What to take?

Xu Qing looked at Gu Xiao in embarrassment.

Gu Xiao had a thought, "Let me pick it up?"

She took the pen, pondered for a moment, and finally settled on a symbol that represents infinity in mathematics, "How is it?"

Xu Qing was satisfied, "Okay."

The receptionist was calm, and didn't feel that the names chosen by the guests were strange at all. Seeing that they had finished filling in, he said, "Then go to the reception room to register the address? When it bears fruit, our villa will deliver the fruit according to the address."

"In order to avoid changing the address frequently, it is best to keep a frequently used one. Of course, if you want to change the address, you can call with the registered mobile phone number. After we verify it, you can change it."

Coming out of the reception room, there was light snow in the sky.

Sporadic snow fragments, small and ethereal.

Before getting into the car, Xu Qing grabbed Gu Xiao's sleeve.

"Ok?"

Gu Xiao looked back at him, "What's wrong?"

"Don't take the car."

Xu Qing said, "Let's walk back."

Gu Xiao didn't quite agree, "You'll catch a cold."

The last time Xu Qing developed a fever after blowing the wind for a while, she still remembers it vividly.

Xu Qing was stubborn, "No."

"..."

"Okay." Gu Xiao said softly, "When you get there, you have to drink ginger soup."

Xu Qing hesitated, obviously making a choice in his heart.

The threat of drinking ginger soup didn't scare Maomao, he nodded, "Okay."

The two walked side by side on the right road without an umbrella when they went out, so snowflakes fell into their hair, shoulders, and collars.

What fell one second hadn't melted yet, and the next second was covered with new snowflakes.

Xu Qing walked close to Gu Xiao.

After walking for a while, Gu Xiao stopped, helped him arrange the scarf, and then put his hand into Xu Qing's pocket.

Stick it to keep warm, without violating harmony.

"What's the matter, you walked back? It's snowing, don't you want to take a car?"

Mother Ji saw the snowflakes on both of them, and hurried over to help pick up the coat, took two dry towels, "wipe their hair."

"Hey, you guys, pay more attention to your health and be careful of catching a cold. I'll make some ginger soup for you."

The two who had been taught a lesson obediently moved to the sofa.

Ji He, who grew mushrooms, glanced, "I told you that there may be snow in the afternoon, so remember to bring an umbrella."

Gu Xiao: "?"

"When did you say that?"

Ji He was confused, "I told Xiaoqing."

Gu Xiao: "..."

Xu Qing didn't tell her.

Sensing the sight of the two, Xu Qing raised her eyes innocently.
