Chapter 204

  Hu Qiudi invited Yunmian to the courtyard, but it wasn't just in front of Yunmian, rather it was an invitation in front of all the young masters and servant boys who came out of the library. The young masters and servant boys naturally became curious about what was going on.

  "Huh?"

  The young masters and servants who were reading didn't even dare to look up, and Yunmian was also stunned for a moment.

  She had no other plans after finishing her studies in the library today, and was originally going to return to the immortal mansion where she and Wen Ting lived. Therefore, seeing Hu Qi specially come over to pick her up made her confused, not knowing why Wen Ting would go to such great lengths to let Hu Qi invite her for what reason.

  Yunmian Mengran asked: "Why did Yun Ting want to see me?"

  "I don't know either."

  Hú Qī smiled as usual and said.

  However, Master Shao should have something important on his mind.

  What's the matter?

  This term made the unrelated crowd more concerned, and the young masters who were reading couldn't help but glance over here, only Yunmian immediately felt extremely worried.

  "Is everything all right?"

  "Hú Qī smiled again and replied: 'I don't know either.'"

  He lowered his head and asked again: "I wonder if Cloud Sleeping Fairy is willing to go with me right away?"

  "Of course!"

  She didn't have time to think much, she subconsciously clasped her hands in front of her chest and turned back to the other young masters and servants, saying: "Then I'll go first, see you later!"

  Everyone could see Yunmian's anxiety and bid her farewell one after another.

  After Yunmian bid farewell to others and hastily followed Hu Qi, the young masters' attendants were still standing in their original positions, looking curiously in her direction.

  The fox's seven steps were very steady, walking neither fast nor slow, and soon led Yunmian back to the vicinity of the Shaodian where she lived with Wen Ting.

  Yunmian was originally anxious and couldn't help but quicken his pace, but unexpectedly he was stunned when he saw the situation in front of the immortal palace.

  The layout of the Young Master's Xian Gong Temple, Yunmian was not as familiar with the two temple dwellings as they were, but now she remembered. She could confirm that before she left in the morning, the courtyard of the Xian Gong Temple was not like this, and before entering the temple courtyard, she could already see from a distance the pink and white flowers of the immortal trees in the temple, as well as the lush tree crowns filled with flowers like clouds.

  Not to mention Yunmian had just approached the immortal palace and already felt a chill, the courtyard of the immortal palace was actually snowing.

  It's June now, but the courtyard is covered with a thick layer of bright white snow. The Qingqiu Xianjing has distinct seasons, and this has never happened before.

  Hú Qī Xiào said with a smile: "Yún Mián Xiān Zǐ, hurry up and go in."

  Hu Qi's expression was surprisingly calm and unruffled by the scene before him, and Yunmian asked him in a cloudy and misty tone, "Aren't you going to go in together?"

  "No."

  Hú Qī remained calm and composed, standing in his original position with a humble smile on his face.

  "Cloud Dream Fairy went in alone, I'll wait here."

  It's even stranger.

  Yunmian blinked dazedly, and as usual, Fox Qi often came and went from the Fox Master's, Fox Mistress' and Young Master Xian's palace. It was never said that he would stand outside waiting. Yunmian couldn't understand the situation, so he slowly walked into the courtyard of the Xian Palace step by step.

  Every inch of land and trees in the courtyard had accumulated snow, and crystal snowflakes were still falling from time to time, but the road had been swept open. The current Young Master Xian Gong was much larger than the two they originally lived in, and even the courtyard was divided into inner and outer gardens, with several water pavilions and flower rails in between. Yunmian slowly stepped into it, and only when he walked to the inner garden next to the Xian Hall did he see Wen Ting standing there.

  Wen Ting today wore not the uniform xianfu of the Hu Gong sect, but a carefully considered white garment with fine patterns embroidered on it, and a jade pendant hanging from his waist. Although it was not a formal xian attire, it somehow gave off an air of solemnity and grandeur that seemed to have been deliberately thought out.

  He heard Yunmian's footsteps and turned around, for some reason, Yunmian felt that he looked a bit flustered.

  Yunmian looked around at the snowy scene, bewildered, and asked: "Wen Ting, what's going on here? Why is it snowing everywhere, and there are many newly transplanted trees?"

  Clouds sleep in confusion, ears tremble.

  "Could it be that the Fox Palace is going to redecorate the Immortal Mansion?"

  "Uh..."

  Wen Ting hesitated for a moment before answering: "Uh... no. These, actually, I did them myself."

  He paused, his face faintly red in the snowy scene, and said: "I think... I want to appreciate the snow with you tonight."

  "Appreciating the snow?"

  Yunmian revealed an astonished expression.

  Appreciating snow is a very romantic term, it's unexpected and just sounds beautiful, but she still doesn't understand why Wēn Tíng would suddenly do this.

  "Is it the kind of snow appreciation where you sit in the courtyard eating and chatting?"

  Wen Ting nodded and responded with a "Hmm."

  In fact, Wen Ting himself felt a bit cramped looking at the scene around him. He was too nervous when preparing and couldn't calm down, just thinking about preparing more things that Meng'er liked, and for a moment he lost his mind, and by the time he came back to himself, the courtyard had become like this.

  He remembered that Yunmian loved the Xianling flower tree in the courtyard of the Xianshen Main Hall, and also liked snow. Every year when it snowed, he would happily run around, piling up the snow together.

  He wanted to make Meng'er happy, so he spent a lot of time searching for many trees with floating flower petals. He hastily planted one after another, and before he knew it, the entire courtyard was filled with them. The pink and white tree crowns merged into one piece, looking like a vast expanse of clouds, but somehow a bit too exaggerated.

  Wen Ting nervously said: "I've already made preparations in advance. Meng Er, come over here with me."

  As she spoke, Wen Ting led Yunmian into the courtyard.

  Yunmian followed him dazedly and vaguely, and went with him to a place closer to Lixiandian.

  Wen Ting had already set up the table, chairs, tea sets and snacks in the courtyard, all placed under the largest Xianhua tree, near the eaves, with petals and snowflakes falling together, very refreshing and beautiful.

  The sky had darkened, a full moon hung high in the dim sky, the night shrouded the snowy scene, with an exceptionally quiet and distant flavor.

  Yunmian sat down shoulder-to-shoulder with Wenching behind the desk, and Wenching had already arranged tea cups and snacks for her.

  Yunmian raised her eyes and looked at the beautiful scenery in front of her, then asked dazedly: "Wen Ting, why did you suddenly plant so many blooming sacred trees in the courtyard?"

  Because I want to be happy.

  Wen Ting replied gently.

  "He said: 'Didn't we previously, when at Tou Shan, always admire the Xianling flower tree cultivated by the Fairy Master's wife? The saplings of that Xianling flower tree are not easy to find. I wrote a letter to the Fairy Master's wife asking about it, and she promised that when the time is right, she will give us a branch of the Xianling flower tree for transplanting. However, for now, it's still impossible to obtain one. Therefore, we first found other varieties of immortal flowers and planted them in the courtyard. Although these are not Xianling flower trees, they are also immortal trees that can bloom at least three seasons a year...'"

  Wen Ting's voice was low and uncertain as he asked: "Mian Er, do you like it?"

  Wen Ting's eyes were exceptionally gentle today.

  Yunmian was stunned for a long time before slowly reacting, nodding vigorously: "I like it! Of course I do! I really like it!"

  Yunmian had always liked these beautiful flowering trees, and the snowflakes. As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she was amazed. Moreover, this was not only a beautiful scene created by the immortal trees and white snow working together in harmony, but also a thoughtful arrangement made by Wen Ting for her. How could she possibly not be delighted?

  Yunmian thought of this, her eyes lit up with excitement, and her eyes curved into a crescent shape.

  Wen Ting saw Yun Mian's appearance and finally let out a breath of relief, smiling lightly: "As long as you like it."

  "Hmm!"

  Yunmian's smile was brighter than usual, but she didn't know why, today Wen Ting's gaze made her even more embarrassed. Her eyes sparkled, and she dared not meet Wen Ting's gaze, so she turned her head to look at the snowy scene, who knew that after a while, she couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really beautiful!"

  Yunmian truly loves snow, and every time she sees the snowy scene, she is very delighted. Especially now, the courtyard made by Wenyin for her is a clean silver white, with dazzling whiteness everywhere, and the full moon is hanging high in the sky.

  "Sleepy child, drink tea."

  Wen Ting poured a cup of hot tea into her teacup and handed it to Yunmian.

  Yunmian took it over, blew gently, and then sipped a mouthful, exclaiming in delight: "So delicious!"

  "Right? This is the immortal tea I got from my parents, and it has a very strong fragrance."

  Wen Ting said with joy.

  The tea is indeed fragrant and has a subtle sweetness in addition to its aroma.

  Yunmian finished the small mouthful quickly, and Tingma immediately poured her another cup, also pouring one for himself. He drank with one hand holding the cup.

  Two people chatted idly while drinking tea, unknowingly finishing two or three cups. Yunmian leaned against the railing of the courtyard, she could feel that the atmosphere between them tonight was particularly good, with a different meaning from usual, but she couldn't quite put it into words.

  At this time, Wen Ting said: "Mian Er, actually I deliberately let Hu Qi call over, is to have a word with you."

  "What's this?"

  Yunmian looked at him.

  She had known that Wen Ting had something he wanted to tell her for a long time, but she didn't know what it was. Seeing Wen Ting bring it up on his own initiative, Yunmeng's heart suddenly lifted.

  Wen Ting didn't immediately respond, but instead followed Yun Mian's gaze and paused for a moment before asking: "When I was first picked up, was it also on a snowy night like this?"

  Yunmian thought for a moment and said: "No! I picked it up early in the morning."

  At that time, Wen Ting's body was very weak and he had slept for a long time. He wasn't quite clear about the time.

  Yunmian was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but say with some emotion: "It's actually been so long already..."

  "Yes..." Wen Ting said, "We two have been engaged for almost seven years now."

  He paused slightly and said: "Just a few days ago, Father and Mother called me over and asked us two whether we were willing to start considering formal marriage."

  “……!”

  Yunmian was startled by these words, her fingers tightened around the small cup in her hand, and her head suddenly felt hot.

  She too became flustered and thought that Wen Ting had deliberately called her over to tell her this, so she hastily asked: "H-how is that possible?"

  Wen Ting said: "I'm going to ask for your opinion. Getting married is between the two of us, to be honest, if it were up to me, I would be willing no matter what. But I remember this engagement, when I was young, I didn't get a say in it, and it was forced upon me. When we were young, it was okay, but now that we're grown up, even with the title of fiancés, we can't not consider our current thoughts... Meng Er, now that you're an adult, even with the engagement, it's not like it's being forced on you, if you're still unwilling, you can refuse. Mother wanted to ask you after asking me, but I stopped her myself because I wanted to ask in person..."

  He paused slightly here, turned around and solemnly faced Yunmian.

  Wen Ting's tone was extremely focused, and Yun Mian unknowingly found himself drawn to his deep and serious eyes, unable to look away.

  Wen Ting calmed down and grasped Yun Mian's hand, placing it in her own. She gazed at him intently. He asked slowly: "Mian'er, are you willing to marry me?"

  The air has a moment of silence.

  Yunmian was holding Wen Ting's hand, she stared blankly at Wen Ting, her expression first stunned, but gradually showed joy, as if her face was lit up by the spring breeze. She replied with surprised apricot eyes: "I'm willing, I'm willing!"

  "Really?"

  It was Huan Ting who became stunned when he received such a quick response.

  "Hmm!"

  Yunmian happily responded.
