The untimely fiance dressed as the heroine

Wen Fei is right, the winter in Beizhou is very long.

After the beginning of winter, there was a lot of snow, and it stopped and stopped, and it stopped and fell again. The snow as far as the eye could hardly melt.The snow on the roof is still regularly cleaned, fearing that the house will collapse, and the snow in the courtyard is not often swept.

It is useless to clean it once, and it will accumulate soon after a snowfall, unless it is kept sweeping, which is a waste of manpower.Secondly, Chu Xi came from the south, and it is rare to see such thick snow. Occasionally, when he looks out of the door and window, the snow-white is a sight.In addition, there is a long corridor in front of the general's mansion, which is enough for people to walk around, but it doesn't have to walk through the courtyard.

In this way, unless the snow in the courtyard is dirty, there is no need to clean it. Occasionally, the maids and servants will play with the snow for a while when they are free.It's not that I don't do my work anymore, it's common to just grab a handful of snow and play around when passing by.

Time passed quietly in this field of snow, and when it entered the twelfth lunar month, the weather became colder and colder.

Wen Fei seldom goes to the military camp these days.On the one hand, the colder the weather, the thicker the snow, making travel more inconvenient; on the other hand, she has been busy for more than a month, and finally she has almost dealt with the important military affairs.It just so happened that Chu Xi had been recuperating for a while after recovering from her illness, and now that her body has fully recovered, she wanted to take time out to spend time with her daughter-in-law.

That night, the two had dinner as usual, holding ginger and jujube tea as usual, while warming the fire, Wen Fei said, "Ah Chu, you have been in Beizhou for a while, and you haven't been out much. It just so happens that you are free these two days. How about I take you out to play?"

Chu Xi also lived a life of staying behind closed doors, but at this time the atmosphere of the aristocratic family was not strict with girls.Enjoying flowers in spring, visiting the lake in summer, picking chrysanthemums in autumn, and enjoying snow in winter, they always have their own fun, and they don't really stay at home.Therefore, being stuck in the house these days, Chu Xi was really depressed, and immediately nodded when she heard the words: "Okay, where are we going to play?"

Beizhou City is not small, and the garrison is outside the city, but the General's Mansion is obviously in the city.Chu Xi thought that Wen Fei wanted to show her around the city when she was new here, but Wen Fei knew that there was nothing to see in the city.

The border city is not desolate, but it is definitely not rich, and it is even more incomparable to the prosperity of Chang'an.The only thing to see is probably the vastness of the north, which is different from Chang'an and Jiangnan... Besides, it is snowing in winter, the snow on the street is knee-deep, there are not many pedestrians, and the shops are empty. Most of the doors are closed, and they only open when guests knock on the door.

What is there to see in the streets at this time of year?

Since Wen Fei mentioned this matter, he had his own plan in mind, so he said to Chu Xi: "There is nothing to do in the city. If you want to go shopping, you have to wait for the weather to warm up after the spring. Why don't I take you out of the city to have a look, the eyes are full of snow, You must have never seen it."

Chu Xi was really interested, her eyes lit up a little, then she looked out of the window and hesitated: "The snow in this courtyard is very thick, the snow outside the city is even thicker? At this time, where It’s convenient to go out of the city, be careful that it’s not easy to come back after you go out.” After finishing speaking, he paused and said in a compromised way: “Otherwise, you can play in the mansion, you said before that you would play with me in the snow.”

Wen Fei didn't take it seriously, and even blinked at her: "Don't worry, since I said I'll take you out of town, it's fine." After speaking, he drank the ginger jujube tea in his hand and put it down. Kongzhan stood up, and stretched out his hand to Chu Xi again: "Okay, I will rest early tonight, and I will take you out of the city tomorrow to experience something new, and you can also play in the snow outside the city by the way."

Hearing what she said with certainty, Chu Xi naturally didn't refute, and reached out to hold Wen Fei's hand full of expectation.The latter pulled her up with a little effort, and then the two of them washed together and rested early.

************************************************** **********

It was a bit late in the winter morning, but today's General's Mansion was bustling with activity early on.

Usually, Wen Fei was the only one who got up early. She had to rush to the barracks early in the morning, and she didn't want to disturb Chu Xi's slumber, so she woke up quietly every morning, making as little noise as possible.But today is different, today is the young couple going out to play together in the city, so the genius is bright, and the whole mansion wakes up and gets busy.

The people in the yard waited for the wash, the people in the kitchen prepared breakfast, the people in the stables prepared the carriages and horses, and the accompanying people were also busy with packing up.It wasn't until daylight that everything was ready.

After breakfast, Wen Fei and Chu Xi went back to their room to change.

Because of going out of the city in the twelfth lunar month of winter, both of them wore thick clothes.Wen Fei is better, he is used to the cold climate in the north, and he has to go out of the city to run to the military camp on weekdays, so he is not very afraid of the cold.Chu Xi was adding clothes one after another, she was a very thin girl, she was wrapped into a ball, and finally she had to put on a fox fur cape, which made it difficult to lift her hands after putting it on.

Chu Xi moved his hands and feet, and looked at the culprit helplessly: "This is too much clothing. How are we going to get out of the city? If I am riding a horse, I can't even get on the horse, let alone wearing so much when riding a car."

Wen Fei looked at the chubby daughter-in-law also a little funny, bent the corners of her lips slightly, and held back a soft cough: "Then don't ride a horse. You can't even ride a car. The snow outside is so thick that the wheels are almost buried. The carriage I can’t go either.” After finishing speaking, she stared at Chu Xi for a while, then found out a pair of rabbit leather earmuffs from somewhere, and put them on Chu Xi’s ears.

Chu Xi hadn't worn this thing before, so she reached out to touch it, but Wen Fei thought she didn't want to wear it, so she stopped and explained: "It's too cold here in winter, if you don't wear this to keep warm, your ears will get frostbite easily."

When she said that, Chu Xi stopped touching her, and asked again: "Then how can we go if we don't ride a horse or take a carriage?"

Wen Fei laughed: "You will know when you come with me."

Just as both of them were dressed, Wen Fei pulled Chu Xi and ran out.The young couple was originally young, with a light figure, and it looked good when they ran hand in hand.It's just that Chu Xi was almost wrapped into a ball at this moment, and now she was shaking while running, which was inexplicably funny.

But neither of the two parties noticed this, and they didn't run fast. When they came to the stables in the backyard, they breathed out white steam.

Chu Xi glanced at the stables, a little puzzled: Didn't you say that you don't ride a horse or take a cart?

Wen Fei didn't wait for her to ask, and quickly called people to get ready - of course there are horses in the stables, and the stables of the General's Mansion will not be idle, there are more than ten good horses raised.This is only Wen Fei's, the guards' horses are kept in another place.However, there are not only horses in the stables, but also the vehicles used for travel are also stored here.

Following Wen Fei's order, the servants in the stable also got busy.Someone did lead the horse, but besides that, someone opened the warehouse beside it, but what was pulled out was not a carriage.

Chu Xi looked at the low, uncovered carriage, hesitated for a while, and asked, "This is... a sled?"

Wen Fei immediately looked at her in surprise: "Hey, does Ah Chu actually recognize the sled?"

Hearing that she was sure, Chu Xi frowned imperceptibly, and immediately explained: "I saw it in Chang'an too. The lake was frozen at the coldest time. Some people like to go skating on the lake, and some people bring sleds Let's go play." After a pause, he continued: "The servant pulled the rope and ran in front, while the master sat in the back and drove him away with a whip like driving a carriage."

Wen Fei also grew up in Chang'an, but she really didn't know about it.Because the little general wanted to be strong since he was a child, and he worked harder after he clarified the path he wanted to take in the future, so he never had the opportunity to touch these dude tricks.

Now after hearing Chu Xi's explanation, she also understood, and knew why the other party frowned.So my heart softened, and I felt a little emotional, but I quickly explained: "No, this sled is not pulled by people. We don't walk on the ice. With such a thick snow, it's hard to know how slow it is to be pulled by people. It's better Ease of riding."

Chu Xi frowned when she heard this, and asked again: "Then use a horse?" But the horse is too tall, and the sled is so short.

Wen Fei didn't hold back anymore at this time, clapped his hands, and a servant brought over a dozen big dogs.These dogs are tall and strong, with thick fur, and they have no problem running outside in heavy snow.

Chu Xi knew at the first sight that this was a dog sled.She had seen people pulling sleds in Chang'an, but she had never seen such big dogs pulling sleds, and she was not worried that these dogs were not well-trained and would throw her off, but she was very curious to see those big fluffy dogs.Several times, I wanted to reach out and stroke my hair, but I was afraid and didn't dare to move.

Wen Fei saw through her mind at a glance, and picked out the ones that were fairly familiar with his eyes.The dog also knew her, and when it saw her, it immediately jumped up and down for joy, barking "Wow, woof", even though it stood taller than a human, it was a little scary when it rushed over.

Fortunately, these sled dogs were all carefully selected and domesticated. Wen Fei let out a low drink, and the dog sat back obediently, with its big fluffy tail wagging non-stop behind it, blowing all the snow on the ground. Swept away... a little silly and a little overzealous, but other than that it's fine.

Wen Fei was relieved to see that the dog was obedient, and went to take Chu Xi's hand and put it on the big dog's head, letting her pet it.The big dog was also quite honest. When the owner touched his head, his ears were pressed down obediently, and he even raised his head slightly, which was a bit coquettish.

Chu Xi rubbed the dog for a while, her brows and eyes were stretched, and she seemed to like it.

The servants of the General's Mansion also moved quickly, and within a short while packed up the sled, and a dozen big dogs were put on ropes one by one.After everything was settled, he drove the dogs and took the sled out through the side door where the carriage entered and exited.

The guards still rode horses, and Wen Fei also carried Chu Xi onto the horse's back. At least the two of them rode on horseback during this part of the city.After all, there were people and horses walking around in the city, and the snow on the ground had melted a lot, so the sledging was not so convenient.So he let the dozen or so dogs drag the empty sled until he got out of the city, and his eyes were white as far as the eye could see, before he actually arrived at the place where the sled was sitting.

Wen Fei jumped off the horse's back first, and then hugged Chu Xi down again. He didn't get it right, and was glared at by the latter—it was all because she wrapped her up too thickly, and said that she would not ride a horse anyway. I still rode, but I had to be hugged when I got on and off the horse, what a shame!

He could probably guess why his daughter-in-law was angry, Wen Fei could only pretend not to notice, and carried her directly onto the sled.

Dog sledding is still a bit of a novelty for people in the south, and the dozen or so dogs raised in Wen Fei's house prove that she has also played it, and maybe even likes it quite a bit.In this way, you can sit in the front and drive without doing your part.

Dogs are very smart and can understand orders, and just under Wen Fei's order, the dozen or so dogs ran away without any confusion.

Chu Xi was a little caught off guard, and her body leaned back inertially, so frightened that she hurriedly hugged Wen Fei from behind.The whistling wind was all around my ears, and I couldn't hear the rest of the sound clearly. I felt the chest tremor of the person in front of me, and realized that the other person was laughing.So annoyed in his heart, he secretly twisted the man's waist, only to be satisfied when he felt the man's body stiffen.

Riding in a sleigh is different from riding in a carriage, and even more different from riding a horse.

More than a dozen dogs ran fast in front, even carrying the sled forward at an extremely fast speed, and the personal guards on horseback were barely left behind.But at such a lightning-fast speed, the sled glides smoothly on the snow, only the cold wind whistling in front of him makes people's temples disheveled and their faces are almost frozen.

Chu Xi embraced Wen Fei with both hands, first put her face on her back, and opened her eyes to see the scenery on both sides receding rapidly.Although most of the eyes are snow-colored, the mountains in the distance and the dead branches and shrubs nearby are different everywhere.

After a while, after getting used to this speed, she straightened up and poked her face out of Wen Fei's shoulders, then supported Wen Fei's shoulders and gradually sat up straight, then gradually knelt up until most of her upper body was exposed ... After Wen Fei noticed it, he gave an order to let the dog pulling the cart run slower, and at the same time urged Chu Xi to sit back, so as not to accidentally get sick again from the cold wind.

It's just that it was windy outside, and Chu Xi didn't know if she heard it or not. After all, she didn't obey and hide behind Wen Fei.She still supported Wen Fei's shoulders, which were not thick, and felt the cold wind blowing in her face. It was very cold, but her mood became more relaxed than ever.

Feeling that the speed of the sled was not as fast as before, Chu Xi patted Wen Fei's shoulder and urged: "Why did they slow down so quickly, let them run faster."

Wen Fei heard this sentence in the wind, feeling a little helpless, and looked up at her: "Aren't you cold?"

Chu Xi pulled up his plush collar to cover his face, but his eyes were smiling, and he patted his shoulder again to urge: "I'm not cold, run faster."

Emotions are presumably contagious.Wen Fei could clearly feel Chu Xi's joy and joy, so she didn't say any more, and as the sled accelerated again, she seemed to feel that pure joy and joy.

The cold wind howled, and what was carried away was the hearty laughter of the two.

The author has something to say: Wen Fei (serious): Did you see this dog? Its fur is so thick that you don’t have to take a bath once in winter, so just stroke it twice.

Chu Xi (unexplainable): ... I seem to smell a little sour?
