Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

Gorgeous fireworks bloomed above their heads, one after another, making it dizzying.

The place where the fireworks were set off was too close to them, and Meng Dong couldn't help but wonder, "Who's family is so wealthy?"

"Maybe there is some happy event at home." Yunling said casually.

"Whatever, it's all in vain if you don't watch it. It's just like it was played just for us. It's great."

The fireworks lasted for a while before stopping, and the sky returned to quiet black again.

Meng Dong shivered, rubbed his hands and said, "It's so cold, let's go inside quickly."

Mother Wu had already made the bed for them. Seeing that their faces were red from the cold, she said angrily: "Why are you back? Come and warm yourself under the quilt."

The two took off their shoes and went up. Meng Dong gathered around the quilt and said enthusiastically: "Someone just set off a lot of fireworks outside. They were near our house. They were so beautiful. I forgot to ask you to go out and watch too."

"You won't go even if you ask us. It's so cold, so you two are the only ones willing to watch. Go to bed quickly, we have to go back to the house tomorrow morning." Mother Wu put out the candles for them, closed the door and left.

When she opened her eyes in the morning, Yunling felt dizzy. She turned around and saw that Meng Dong was still sleeping, so she couldn't help but close her eyes again.

When she heard Meng Dong getting up, she followed him.

After the two of them had washed up, Sister Meng Dong brought them breakfast, "We have finished eating. I saw that you were sleeping soundly and I didn't call you, so you eat slowly. Mother left early in the morning, and I asked you to go back to the Duke's mansion by yourself."

Yunling was a little embarrassed. It was her first time at someone else's house and she got up late. "Sorry, sister-in-law."

"It's okay, don't worry, dad has already found a carriage for you before going out."

Meng Dong pursed his lips and said, "Really?"

It's nice to be at home, but it's a pity that we have to leave after only one night. "

Sister Meng Dong looked distressed and said, "Little sister, you are tired."

Meng Dong turned around and said with a smile: "I'm just complaining, but actually it's quite nice to be in the Duke's Mansion. With my mother here, I can still work with Yunling in the Prince's Courtyard."

"Seeing that you two are so close, we can rest assured outside."

After breakfast, Sister Meng Dong packed a large bag of things for them and sent them to the carriage.

Yunling put down the curtain and said, "Sister-in-law is so kind."

"My eldest sister-in-law's home is not far from our home. My father and her father did business together when they were young, so the two families have become familiar with each other. My eldest brother and sister-in-law are also childhood sweethearts. After they got married, I have never seen them blush," Meng Dong said. .

"I really envy your harmonious family." The atmosphere in their home reminded her of her own home, which was plain and happy. If it hadn't been for her illness, there might have been more smiles on the family's faces.

"Then you will come here more often, and they will also like you."

Arriving at the side door of Duke Dingguo's mansion, the two got off the carriage. As soon as she opened the door, Yunling suddenly heard someone calling her name. She turned around and saw a person leaning out of the carriage parked on the roadside. There was a smile on that overly handsome face that made people unable to help but fall into it. .

But that person did not include her. She frowned, "Why are you here?"

"Obviously I'm waiting for you." Lu Siheng chuckled.

Meng Dong retracted his stepped foot and said blankly: "Yunling, who is he?"

"He's an idle guy, let's go." Yunling didn't intend to pay attention to him.

"Should you come up, or should I go down? I want to go in to pay my New Year's greetings to Duke Ding. They probably won't stop me." Lu Siheng said quietly.

.

This is a blatant threat!

Yunling gritted her teeth and said to Meng Dong, "You go in first, I'll be right back."

"Oh." Meng Dong looked back curiously and took another look before entering.

The coachman had already prepared the horse stool, and Lu Siheng had calculated that she would definitely come up.

The carriage was very warm, but Lu Siheng was sitting inside wearing a fur coat. Apart from showing his nobility, there was no need for anything else.

Yunling sat near the door and asked, "What does Mr. Lu want from me?"

"Can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?" Lu Siheng asked with narrowed eyes.

"Since nothing happens, I'm leaving."

As soon as Yunling got up, she heard him say lazily: "Were the fireworks good last night?"

She paused and sat back down, "Did you set off the fireworks?"

Lu Siheng was noncommittal, but Yunling believed that it was him who did it, "How did you know where I am?"

"I've been thinking about you, so I naturally knew."

Yunling rolled her eyes, "You won't send someone to follow me, will you?"

"How can that be considered stalking? You and I haven't seen each other for a year. Isn't it too much for me to care about my savior?" Lu Siheng said calmly.

"No, I can't be Mr. Lu's savior," Yunling raised her hand to reject his offer, "Mr. Lu gave me money at that time, and we don't owe each other anything."

"Does Yunling think that my life is worth just a few taels of silver?"

"I don't know how much money Mr. Lu is worth, but for me, the money is enough to cover the labor I put in."

Lu Siheng sighed and said melancholy: "You have looked at me all over my body. I thought our relationship shouldn't be so unfamiliar."

Yunling suddenly felt her face getting hot and panicked, "W-what are you talking nonsense about?

I just looked at you..."

She pointed at his upper body and couldn't say anything.

Lu Siheng didn't let her go and looked at her with burning eyes, "Just where did you look at me?"

What a shameless scoundrel!

Yunling said angrily: "I was only focused on changing your dressing at that time. How could I have noticed this? In my eyes, it is just a piece of meat, no different from pork or mutton!"

She actually regarded his body as pork and mutton? Lu Siheng's face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. He took off his fur clothes and quickly moved to the opposite side of her. He put one hand on his belt and stared at her meaningfully.

"Since you didn't look carefully at that time, why don't I let you see it clearly now and see what the difference is between the pork and mutton you mentioned."

Seeing that he was really about to take off his belt, Yunling hurriedly leaned forward to hold his hand, "Don't—"

The softness on the back of her hand made Lu Siheng startled, and when he saw the panic on her face so close to him, his heart skipped a beat.

Yunling also belatedly realized something was wrong. She immediately retracted her hand and sat upright. She cleared her throat and said, "If Mr. Lu wants to say this, please forgive me for not accompanying you."

"Wait a minute," Lu Siheng took out a white jade bracelet from his body, "This is your New Year's gift."

What the hell is he doing?

"Master Lu and I are not related, so I really don't dare and have no reason to accept such an expensive gift from you."

Lu Siheng said helplessly: "Yunling, why do you have to be so heartless? We have had a heart-to-heart talk, so we should be considered friends."

Yunling's voice softened a bit, "You are the third young master of Zhongjinghou Mansion, and I am just a second-class maid of Dingguo Mansion, so I am not worthy of being friends with you."

"I don't believe you really think so, would you

Care about this? "Lu Siheng looked into her eyes steadily.
