Ji Yunxi sees that it is enough and stops advancing.
When she looked at the person on the opposite side who had wrapped himself into a rice dumpling, she couldn’t hold back anymore, gathered her skirt and said: “Your room is indeed a little bit cold.”
Just now, she has been fighting wits and courage with Wu Wei’an and her attention is focused on his every move, so she doesn’t feel it.
But now that they have chatted enough, the coldness swept through her whole body instead.
After returning to his senses, Wu Wei’an first stuffed the silver banknotes into his pocket, then held the hand-warmer stove that he just regained again before saying as if he is indebted for the personal favor: “Yes, what I am most fed up with in this world is the severe winter.”
Ji Yunxi also clutched the hand-warmer stove, which can be regarded as a couple stove with the one in Wu Wei’an’s hand, and she raised her eyebrow when she heard that: “Oh? Did you spend every winter like this?”
Wu Wei’an thought of the winter days in previous years, and felt quite melancholy for a while: “Yes.”
“Young Master, you said that you don’t want to climb to the sky in one step.” Ji Yunxi seemed to just casually mention it, “If it is so, then Young Master will still have to spend several years of winter like this in the future.”
“……”
Wu Wei’an keeps his eyes closed.
Feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Ji Yunxi’s nose was red from the cold. Touching the edge of the topic lightly, she said: “It’s really too cold. I will go first, and I hope Young Master will be well.”

She dropped these words, got up and went out of the door.
Inside, Wu Wei’an looked at her back with deep eyes.
But in an instant, he withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the uncollected tea and pastries on the table, as well as the tablecloth, cushion, teapot and cups that seemed like they could be pawned for a lot of money.
He gently raised his eyebrows and just reached out his hand to twist a piece of grapefruit and plum blossom cake with honey.
Baofu and Wan Xiang came in.
Baofu looked at the Young Master that had wrapped himself up, stretched her face, and moved quickly with Wan Xiang to pack up all the things.
The table lost its tablecloth and showed its dilapidated appearance again.
Wu Wei’an pursed his lips and somewhat hesitatingly asked in fear: “This, this is…”
Baofu glanced sideways at him, putting the pastries into the bamboo basket and said: “Miss said, Young Master can go to the Marquis Mansion to drink tea at any time.”
After that, she looked at the man’s fingertips holding the grapefruit and plum blossom cake with honey that he hadn’t had the time to eat yet. She simply stretched out her hand and snatched it back without saying anything.
Wu Weian: “……”
Does it even need to go as far as this??
Outside, after Ji Yunxi instructed Baofu and Wan Xiang, she didn’t leave first, but walked around the house instead.
Second Wu followed along, using all kinds of mild and roundabout persuasion to say that this is inappropriate.
But Ji Yunxi pretended as if she couldn’t understand what he meant at all.
The elder brothers in her family already had no way to deal with Ji Yunxi since they were still very young.
Whether she can understand something or not, it often only depends on whether she wants to understand it or not.
Not to mention this Second Wu’s ability.
Therefore, he could only grieve and accompany Ji Yunxi to look around their Wu family’s small house.
It’s really small.
There are only three rooms in the back courtyard.
The bigger one is where Wu Wei’an lives, and the other two are quiet.
The doors are closed at this time, so it should be the residence of the four servants in the family.
Ji Yunxi took back her gaze and looked at this small courtyard.
The yard is very clean, without a fallen leaf on the ground or a trace of snow at all.
The snow that had fallen since few days ago was all swept to the corner of a wall and pressed flat, just like the tofu cubes stacked by the instructor during military training.
It should be the masterpiece of the sweeping servant she just saw, but this time, the person has disappeared.
Ji Yunxi thought for a moment and asked Second Wu who was following behind her: “I heard that there are only four servants in the house. Is that enough?”
Second Wu paused, sucked his red nose, and told the truth: “Replying to Third Miss, although there are only a few servants in the house, all of them work quickly and neatly. Moreover, the house is not big, so it’s enough.”
“That’s great then.” Ji Yunxi nodded and walked towards the front courtyard.
