The first snowy night of 2018,
Xi Nianzhi met Wen Xubai for the first time.
The man stood under the eaves outside the courtyard, only a few steps away from her who was hiding from the snow.
The snow fell on his shoulders that night, but Xi Nianzhi could only hear his own heartbeat.
After years of separation, the news of the marriage came:
Wen Xubai wants to marry her.
After the marriage, Wen Xubai was thoughtful and polite and fulfilled her husband's responsibilities.
But Xi Nianzhi knew that this marriage was just a business cooperation between the two families.
She didn't want Wen Xubai to think that she had ulterior motives, so she had to carefully hide all her likes. She never asked anything about Wen Xubai.
Xi Nianzhi always thought that he was just fulfilling his marital obligations.
Until late one night, Wen Xubai suddenly held her in his arms.
The man put his chin on her shoulder and asked:
"That snowy night, was it me?"

One day after the marriage, Wen Xubai discovered that Xi Nianzhi was raising mints.
He asked casually: "Why did you raise this?"
Xi Nian's heart tightened, but his face was extremely calm: "I like it."
He didn't say anything else, but when he came home from get off work the next day, Xi Nianzhi found an extra pot of mint at home, right next to the pot she kept.
Late at night, Wen Xubai woke up and found that Xi Nianzhi was not around. When he walked to the living room, he found her standing in front of the window sill looking at mint.
He hugged her gently from behind: "I bought a bunch when I came back from get off work today to prevent the mint you like from being lonely."
Xi Nianzhi looked at the two pots of mint, and his eyes suddenly became hot.
He doesn't know,
The flower language of mint is: meet again.
She raised mint because he smelled faintly of mint that snowy night.
She liked it unspokenly, and Mint always remembered it for her.

Another winter, Xi Nianzhi was sorting out her old things and found a book she had liked before. There was a dry mint leaf sandwiched in it.
She picked it up on the roadside on that first snowy night.
She didn't know why she picked it up, she was just a little reluctant to leave that night.
The sound of footsteps came from behind, and Wen Xubai suddenly came closer: "What are you looking at?"
She hurriedly closed the book and put it on the bookshelf as if nothing happened: "Nothing."
Xi Nianzhi tossed and turned during the night, but Wen Xubai got up and left the bedroom but did not come back.
Pushing open the study room, she saw Wen Xubai flipping through the book, holding mint leaves in his hand.
She panicked and wanted to explain, but she heard him ask again: "Did you pick it up after that snowy night?"
Xi Nianzhi was stunned: "How do you know?"
Wen Xubai put the mint leaf back into the book, closed it, and looked at her with a deep look:
"Because, I also picked up a piece."
