Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

The group requested the largest snow hut, the largest in the snow mountain, which could accommodate all of them.

In order to bring Feng Xiaoni and Yan Zhun together, everyone else quickly took their seats. Tang Junyao, Ji Hancheng, Han Yue, and Lan Yunxi, the three children, were already sitting on one side.

Yan Na, Lan Yunchen, Lan Zhiyu, Yan Feifei, and Dong Qiao had already taken their seats in order. The last two seats were for Yan Zhun and Feng Xiaoni. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with everyone sitting down in order.

Dong Qiao pulled Feng Xiaoni to sit down next to her, saying, "Sit next to me so I can take good care of you."

Feng Xiaoni sat down next to Dong Qiao. There was a stove burning in the room, and the matches inside were crackling. The red glow of the stove could be seen through the cracks, and the room was very warm. The heating circulated in the room after the wooden door was closed.

Everyone took off their coats and hung them on a hanger to the side. The men, following the husband's authority, took the coats from their wives as they took them off.

Yan Zhun didn't think much of it and directly took the clothes from his sister and Feng Xiaoni. Feng Xiaoni was a little embarrassed, but still thanked him, "Thank you."

Yan Zhun: "Just doing it."

Everyone, "........."

Dong Qiao smiled and refused, "I'll do it myself. I'm getting old and need to move around more. I should be the oldest one here."

Yan Feifei said sweetly, "Sister Qiao, with your figure and your face, people would believe you if you said you were 25."

Women all like to be complimented on their youth, and Dong Qiao was no exception. She was overjoyed by Fei Fei's compliment, saying, "Your mouth is as sweet as honey. I love it. I thought you were going to say 18."

"18 is no good, that's too unrealistic, I want to be truthful."

Dong Qiao: "Little girl, you've taught well. Your little mouth has really got the hang of it."

Feng Xiaoni smiled but didn't say anything. Yan Zhun wanted to expose her, but after glancing at Feng Xiaoni beside him, he swallowed back the words he wanted to say to his sister.

Steam rose from the pot, and several people used serving chopsticks to put food on their wives' plates. Dong Qiao watched this scene with a faint smile. She had once received such treatment, but it had been a very long time since then.

Yan Zhun also wanted to help, but his status prevented him from doing so, so he could only politely ask, "Do you need my help?"

Before Feng Xiaoni could speak, Dong Qiao said, "Help us open the drinks, otherwise all the men are moving around, and it's not appropriate for you to just sit there."

Feng Xiaoni was used to Dong Qiao's way of speaking, but she was afraid that Yan Zhun would feel uncomfortable with this directness, so she turned to Dong Qiao and gestured for her to take it easy. Dong Qiao smiled, shrugged, and indicated that she understood.

The meal went very well, and the children were very well-behaved. After filling their stomachs, the children went outside to look at the snowmen they had built.

Ji Xinyu and Lan Zhiyu were working on the snow, smoothing out any uneven areas, while Ji Xinhan stood with her hands behind her back, shaking her head helplessly, clearly dissatisfied with her current work.

Little Yuzu, expressionless, stood with her hands in her pockets, coldly threatening, "Try taking your clothes off again."

Ji Xinhan took her little hand off the zipper, pouted, and said, "Okay."

Lan Yunchen: "After you finish eating, do you want to go off-roading, skiing, or ice skating?"

"There's nothing we can do in this snowy weather, so we can only do things related to snow. I estimate the snow in Blue City will continue for a while longer." After saying that, Lan Yunchen picked up some food for Yan Na and placed it on the empty bowl in front of her.

Lan Yunxi likes a cool style, but she also wants to ask for other people's opinions, "Sisters, what do you want to play?"

Several women answered in unison, "Off-road vehicle."

Men: ".............." are all fierce women.

It's not surprising that Yao Yao, Xi Xi, and Dong Qiao chose to go off-road with Yan Zhun; Dong Qiao's personality shows she's quite daring. However, it was surprising that Feng Xiaoni also chose off-road with Yan Zhun.

After changing locations and having lunch, the group arrived at a mountainous area where a dazzling array of off-road vehicles of all colors were parked in an open space.

Tang Junyao smiled as she watched, and Ji Hancheng looked down, asking, "Which color car do you like?"

"It's black, isn't it?"

"Okay, whatever you say."

Ji Hancheng walked towards a certain place, presumably to communicate with the management of this place, and asked for a black car and three children's off-road vehicles suitable for driving on flat ground. Hei Hu, Bai Hu, and Xiao Fei watched over the children. "Come over here and choose for yourselves."

Xiao Youzi chose a black car and said to Ji Hancheng, "I'll take Xiao Yu."

Lan Yunchen squatted down and asked his son, "Do you want to drive with your brother?"

Lan Zhiyu stood excitedly by the car, trying to climb up. Lan Yunchen lifted the child up with one hand and fastened the seatbelt. These were all children's strollers, so they were very safe.

Every year, many children come here to play.

Ji Xinyu and Ji Xinhan's family already owned an off-road vehicle, so they were extremely familiar with its structure. In particular, Ji Xinhan started the car early and drove it on flat ground.

Three cars were circling on the flat ground. Black Tiger, White Tiger, and Xiao Fei each jogged alongside one of the cars, protecting them.

Black Tiger and White Tiger followed the car expressionlessly, while Xiao Fei had more ideas.

Han Yue and Lan Yunxi chose a red and black SUV. Han Yue drove, and Lan Yunxi sat next to him.

Dong Qiao, Yan Na, and Lan Yunchen did not participate. They stood to the side with a cup of coffee in their hands. Dong Qiao made an excuse that she was a little sleepy and had gotten used to taking a nap these past few days, so she was afraid of clashing with them.

In the end, Feng Xiaoni and Yan Zhun each got a car, leaving the three of them shaking their heads helplessly. Dong Qiao teased, "Nana, there's a reason why your brother is single. He's too passive. At this rate, when will he ever bring our Xiaoni home? Auntie's probably waiting forever."

Lan Yunchen put his arm around Yan Na's waist, smiled, and said, "Can you do me a favor?"

Dong Qiao glanced at the group of people driving in the distance, then looked at Bai Lanyunchen and said, "How can I help? I can't possibly confess my feelings for your brother-in-law, can I?"

Yan Na was also helpless, "It's already unprecedented that Xiao Zhun was able to come along. I'm really afraid that he won't come to Blue City this time."

Lan Yunchen: "Don't you have a way? Give it your all."

Dong Qiao glanced at Bai Lanyunchen again, knowing what he meant, but didn't reply. Instead, she said to Yan Na, "Your expectations of your brother are quite low. Alright, I'll think of a way to do a good deed."

Yan Zhun stayed close to Feng Xiaoni's car, as if afraid something might happen to her. Every time Feng Xiaoni turned her head to look at the road, she could see Yan Zhun's handsome face, forcing her to turn her head quickly.

The more you see, the more deeply you remember.

evening.

At the Lan Family Manor, everyone was playing with fireworks in the courtyard, filling the yard with the pungent smell of fireworks.

The fireworks piled up in one corner of the yard were as tall as a person. Lan Yunchen knew that the children liked to play with them, so he had prepared these fireworks well in advance before Lan Yunxi and the others arrived. There were all kinds of fireworks.

The most common item was the star-shaped stick, but Lan Yunchen, finding it too stimulating, dared not buy it for fear of danger.

At this moment, several children were running and spinning around in the yard, each holding a star-shaped stick. Ji Xinyu was dancing with a star-shaped stick, surrounded by firelight, looking like a fairy.

Little Youzi was taking care of his younger siblings, using his father's lighter to help light things, while Tang Junyao reminded him, "Lele, be careful with your clothes."

Little Yuzu: "Okay, I understand."

Ji Xinhan, on the other hand, took it to a whole new level. Holding a bunch of fireworks in one hand, she started punching, the sparks brushing past her clothes. Tang Junyao's brow twitched and her blood pressure spiked. This girl was always causing trouble, with one trick after another.

You never know what she might do next.

Tang Junyao coldly reminded him, "Ji Xinhan, can you play with both feet on the ground?"

Little Ji Xinhan readily agreed, "Okay."

Lan Zhiyu was very well-behaved. She stood next to Xiaoyouzi the whole time, standing still and watching the fireworks burn with great interest. After the fireworks went out, she asked her brother to help her light them again. She did this repeatedly and quietly.

Lan Yunchen and Yan Na each held a child, Han Yue and Xi Xi's twins. Shen Muyun and Yan's mother were chatting inside, while Lan Chumu and Yan's father were chatting in the study.

Han Yichen and little Han Yinuo watched the fireworks and found it very fun. They clapped their hands, drooling from the corners of their mouths. Han Yue took a baby tissue and helped wipe it off.

Yan Zhun leaned against the door, bored out of his mind. The image of him shielding Feng Xiaoni from the snowballs earlier that day was still in his mind. His figure obscured her, but when he looked down, he could see Feng Xiaoni's trembling eyelashes and her delicate lips. For a moment, he wanted to lower his head and kiss her.

However, he managed to restrain himself. Recalling his own despicable behavior, he felt contempt for himself and realized he might be experiencing puberty.

Ji Hancheng stood at the door with his arms crossed, leaning against the wall in a lazy manner. Han Yue followed suit and leaned against the wall as well, his feet against the wall, leaning to one side like a boneless caterpillar.

Ji Hancheng joked, "Watching fireworks?"

Yan Zhun looked at Ji Hancheng with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot. "Otherwise, do you think I'm looking at a ghost?"

Han Yue chuckled and curled his lips, "If you can see ghosts, it means you have the ability to see ghosts. Tomorrow, a research institution will invite you to study them. You'll have made a contribution to the medical field."

Yan Zhun: "............."

One mouth can't out-argue two mouths. Surely he'll just shut up, since they're all sharp-tongued and never say a kind word.

Ji Hancheng was already quite free, so he wasn't going to let him off the hook. He glanced at Yao Yao playing with the child in the distance and said in a cheeky tone, "Pretending to be profound."

"Are you sick? Why are you standing next to me if you have nothing to do? Go find your wife and kids." Yan Zhun didn't want to talk to these two. They were obviously there to mock him and didn't have any good intentions.

Han Yue: "He's sick, aren't you a doctor? Treat him."

A few seconds later, Han Yue turned to look at Yan Zhun and asked, "Didn't you bring your medicine?"

Yan Zhun pinched his brow in anger, "I can't cure his illness. It's only thanks to Tang Junyao that his condition has become incurable."

Ji Hancheng laughed instead of getting angry, "Terminal illness, that's good. Anyway, you can see ghosts, so I'll come to you from now on."

Yan Zhun: "............"

Just as they were having a lively conversation, Ji Xinhan's down jacket caught fire. Tang Junyao rushed over and pulled her daughter's clothes off. Several other people also gathered around when they saw this.

Ji Xinhan wasn't scared at all; she threw the clothes on the ground and stomped on them.

Everyone who witnessed this scene was still shaken, but Ji Xinhan, the person involved, seemed quite happy. Without the constraints of the heavy down jacket, she felt lighter and even clenched her fist.

Lan Yunxi and Yan Na both squatted down to check if Ji Xinhan was injured. After checking, they found that only her clothes were burned, so they were relieved.

Tang Junyao stared at the down jacket with a large hole burned in it on the ground, almost choking. She knew this would be the outcome. She glared at her daughter.

Lan Yunchen went over to protect her, "It's okay, Hanhan didn't do it on purpose. Don't be angry during the New Year, Hanhan. You can't play like that later."

As she spoke, Yan Na brought out a brand-new down jacket from home, saying, "This was bought by my aunt. Try it on to see if it fits."

There are also many new clothes at home that I bought for other little ones.

Yan Feifei, like a child who never grew up, was choosing fireworks that Lan Yunchen had bought in a corner. Among this group of children, she was the leader of the group.

Ji Xinhan glanced at her mother and thanked her politely, "Thank you, Auntie."

Ji Hancheng knew his wife was angry, so he strode over, put his arm around Yao Yao's waist, and comforted her, "I'll scold her when we get back to the room. Let's give her some face now that there are more people around."

Tang Junyao: "............"

Han Yue's assessment of Ji Hancheng's daughter can be summed up in two words: fierce and powerful.
