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

Dong Jiafu rested at home for two days to relieve her fatigue.

There was nothing to do in the afternoon. She originally wanted to go to her second brother to see how far the teahouse had been repaired. She was just about to change clothes when Xia Zhi came in from outside.

"Girl, look who's here."

Hearing this, Dong Jiafu turned around and saw Meng Dong running towards her happily. She smiled and stretched out her hand, "Slow down..."

"Afu—" Meng Dong held her hand and jumped happily, "You are finally back. I miss you so much."

"I miss you too." Dong Jiafu took her to the couch and sat down.

"The night before you left Beijing, I heard from Ji Bai that you were going to Yangzhou with the Crown Prince, and I wanted to follow you. I plucked up the courage to go and beg the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince said that someone was following you, and that you were there to do business. , it’s inconvenient if there are too many people.”

Meng Dong pouted, "I know you are going to save your master, and I won't make trouble and delay your work. But I didn't dare to say this to the Crown Prince. I could only watch the Crown Prince take Ji Bai away. I look forward to your return."

"This trip is indeed hard, and I don't want you to follow me around. Anyway, I have only been there for more than ten days. We will have plenty of opportunities to meet when we come back to the capital, so don't be unhappy, eh?" Dong Jiafu coaxed with a smile.

"You're right, that's why I came out to look for you today." Meng Dong smiled brightly, "I asked Ji Bai and found out that you and the prince found the real culprit and rescued your master."

"Yes, only if the master is safe and sound can I come back with peace of mind."

"I also heard that you pretended to be a ghost to defraud that family. It was really exciting. If I went there, I would be the one to do this kind of thing. The custody would scare the shit out of them!" Meng Dong said with high spirits.

Dong Jiafu couldn't help laughing, "It's not a good job, but you still rushed to get on. Xia Zhi was scared at that time."

Xia Zhi, who had brought snacks to them, happened to hear it. He put the snacks in front of them and said, "It's all my fault that I'm useless. If I had half the courage of Meng Dong, I wouldn't have done it myself."

"Xia Zhi, don't take it seriously. I'm just joking with Meng Dong. Everyone has their own shortcomings and strengths. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Although your courage is not as good as Meng Dong's, your makeup skills are comparable. She is much stronger. If it hadn't been for you that day, I wouldn't have been able to pretend to be like that." Dong Jiafu said with relief.

Meng Dong also smiled and said: "That's right, if you take everything, wouldn't I be of no use here?"

Xia Zhi chuckled, "It's impossible, even if you don't know anything, our girls will treat you as their best friend."

"Really?" Meng Dong's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Do you even think that Afu's best friend is me?"

"Of course, the girl often talks about you. Every time you come to the house, the girl is very happy."

These words made Meng Dong very happy, and he laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.

"By the way, Afu, let's go out to eat noodles together." Meng Dong stood up, "Let's go together during the summer solstice."

"Eating noodles?" Dong Jiafu looked out the window at the bright sunshine, "But it's not time to eat yet."

Meng Dong waved his hand and said, "Then eat less. I missed your birthday a few days ago, and I'm here to make up for it today."

"Hey, is there a mistake? Our girl's birthday will have to wait for another two months." Xia Zhi asked doubtfully.

Meng Dong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he patted his forehead and said, "Yes, why am I so stupid? Now that you have found your family, you must know when your real birthday is."

"Is it in April?" she asked.

Dong Jiafu nodded, "April 28th."

"I'll remember April 28th. I'll come back to celebrate your birthday on that day." Meng Dong said happily, "This way I won't miss your birthday."

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come." Dong Jiafu responded with a smile, thought for a while and then said, "Before you came, I was planning to go out. How about we go out together?"

Meng Dong responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, the weather outside is so nice."

"You have some snacks and wait for me for a while. I'll go change my clothes and leave."

Meng Dong happily sat back on the couch, "Take your time, don't be in a hurry."

"Xia Zhi, you talk to Meng Dong for a while, I'll be back as soon as I can."

Dong Jiafu turned to Xia Zhi and then went to the inner room.

After changing their clothes, the three of them left the house together.

Since the renovation of the tea house started, Dong Jialin has been running between the book shop and the tea house. He has to keep an eye on the renovation, lest he did anything wrong, and also take care of the business of the book shop.

Fortunately, the bookstore was well organized in the early stage, so it didn't take him too much energy.

He tidied the bookshelf as usual and put some books that were selling well forward. After finishing one bookshelf and heading to the next, he didn't hear footsteps behind him and turned around suddenly, almost bumping into someone at the corner.

Dong Jialin quickly stopped and said, "I'm sorry..."

"What's the matter with you? You're so careless in a place like a bookshop..." A young girl scolded unceremoniously.

"Qinghe, lower your voice——"

Dong Jialin heard the woman in front of him whisper to dissuade her. The voice seemed familiar, and he looked up.

"It's you again?" Qing He's eyes widened as he recognized him, and he pointed at him in surprise.

It turned out to be the girl and her maid whom he had met at the lantern festival. Dong Jialin raised his hand and said, "I didn't expect to meet the girl again. I'll forgive my rudeness."

Qing He pursed his lips, "Huh, you know you're being rude but you still don't change it..."

"Qinghe, don't talk nonsense." The girl looked at Dong Jialin sheepishly, "Don't blame me, sir. Qinghe is outspoken. If she offended you, I will apologize to you on her behalf."

The girl has fair skin and a slender figure. Her face is only the size of a palm, but her facial features are extremely delicate. She is gentle and quiet, and her whole body exudes the aroma of books.

Dong Jialin hurriedly shook his head, "No wonder, I didn't pay attention when I turned around and almost bumped into the girl again. Last time I bumped into the river lantern made by the girl, I felt very sorry."

"Young master, you don't have to worry about such a trivial matter, and the river lantern is not broken."

The girl showed a faint smile, as gentle as a magnolia flower.

Dong Jialin was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses, "What book are you looking for, girl? I'm familiar with this place and can help you find it."

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. I want to see it for myself."

"Oh, okay, then I won't disturb the girl's reading." Dong Jialin stepped aside to make room.

The girl nodded slightly towards him and walked past him.

Dong Jialin pressed his back against the bookshelf and stared blankly at the girl's back.

Qing He noticed it and turned around to glare at him with a warning look.

Dong Jialin quickly withdrew his gaze and turned into another row of bookshelves in a panic. In order to cover up, he picked up books and fiddled with them. The girl's voice came faintly.

"What's wrong, Qinghe?"

"It's okay, girl, I think I saw a fly."

"Are you mistaken? Where do flies come from at this time of year?"

"maybe……"
