The snow presses on the Vermilion Pavilion, beautiful and translucent.
It reminds her of winters in the Vermilion Pavilion.
In the Vermilion Pavilion, her elder sister lives, the most beautiful girl in the entire Capital City.
Her elder sister fears the heat, never letting the fire burn too warmly even in deep winter, and she always loves to sit under the porch.
Every year, the fur sent by their father and brother from Liangzhou is made into a brand-new, fluffy cloak for her, the fine, soft fur setting off her bright and enchanting face. Even she, her own sister, often finds herself mesmerized.
If she arrives, her elder sister would frown while asking someone to add another stove and also tell her to slow down.
And if at that moment snow falls from the eaves, her elder sister would raise her eyebrows, look down at her and say, "Tang Xiaobai! You've startled the snow off!"
The name Xiaobai was also given to her by her elder sister.
