“To see the beautiful scenery,” replied Wei Ruo.
“The beautiful scenery is outside the window.”
“The one inside is more beautiful,” Wei Ruo answered while gazing at Wei Jinyi.
A blush rose on Wei Jinyi’s cheeks.
“A touch of pink clouds in the treetops, what a splendid view,” said Wei Ruo with a smile.
Wei Jinyi turned her head to the side, “Stop joking, Ruoruo.”
Wei Ruo chuckled secretly. Second Brother was as shy as ever!
Then Wei Ruo came up with a sudden idea, “Second Brother, let’s have a snowball fight?”
Wei Jinyi looked at Wei Ruo, his expression seemingly confirming whether her proposal was serious.
“You must not use your martial arts skills, I’m sure I can’t beat you then!” declared Wei Ruo.
“Alright.”
“Let’s also call Meimei, Xiaobei, along with Sister Lin Fang and Brother Ke, perfect for a three on three,” suggested Wei Ruo.
“Alright.”
“Let’s go,” Wei Ruo got up from the warm kang, put on thick cotton shoes, and a cloak.
Wei Jinyi also got down from the bed and followed behind Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo called the others over at the doorway and after telling them of her intention to have a snowball fight.
Xiumei and Xiaobei didn’t hesitate to agree, their faces showing anticipation.
Lin Fang hesitated a bit, while Ke Chongshan anxiously looked at Wei Jinyi, then at Wei Ruo.
“What’s wrong? you two?” Wei Ruo asked.
“My lady, my wife…she’s pregnant. Therefore, she cannot join the fun I’m afraid. Please excuse us,” Ke Chongshan said.
“Pregnant? That’s great news!” Wei Ruo’s face brightened, and she immediately took Lin Fang’s pulse.
Lin Fang looked down shyly.
“Indeed, she’s expecting, already more than three months along. Lin Fang, why didn’t you tell us sooner? The first three months are critical, and yet you’ve been running around with me,” Wei Ruo said.
“I just found out recently. I feel fine despite being pregnant. Besides, you’ve been so busy lately, I couldn’t possibly leave you at a time like this. It’s just Chongshan being overprotective where he doesn’t want me to do anything,” Lin Fang said shyly.
“You should have told us, it’s a big happy event for our house. Starting today, please rest and take care of yourself, stop running around with me. Stay here in the mansion, and I’ll give you some pregnancy tonics to strengthen yourself,” Wei Ruo said.
“Thank you very much, my lady.”
“Let Sister Lin Fang be the referee today, and Zhang Yi can fill in for her,” Wei Ruo suggested.
“Your orders are our command,” Lin Fang and Zhang Yi replied.
In the courtyard, the accumulated snow reached Wei Ruo’s knees. Aside from a pathway cleared in the middle, the untouched snow on both sides was spotless and smooth.
Wei Ruo ran into the snow, scooped up a handful of snow and threw it at Wei Jinyi.
The first snowball hit Wei Jinyi right on the forehead, causing snow to fall all over him, even getting caught in his hair and collar.
Wei Ruo laughed, thinking that Second Brother was always so immaculate, even when fighting, she had never seen him dirty.
The hit Wei Jinyi, however, looked gentle. He calmly picked up some snow from a tree branch, made a snowball, and threw it back. The snowball brushed past Wei Ruo and hit the wall behind her.
Wei Ruo took the opportunity to retaliate, throwing snowballs with both hands at Wei Jinyi.
Some hit Wei Jinyi, while others hit the bare trunk of a tree behind him. The exploded snowball and accumulated snow on the trunk fell onto Wei Jinyi.
Meanwhile, Xiumei, Xiaobei, Ke Chongshan, and Zhang Yi, not daring to throw at Wei Ruo or Wei Jinyi, simply had fun amongst themselves.
After playing in the snow for half a day, everyone had some degree of snow on them.
