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

Meng Dong opened the package, and Dong Jiafu saw an oil paper bag and a box inside.

As Meng Dong took out the oil paper bag, Dong Jiafu smelled a long-lost fragrance.

"Did my sister-in-law make the candies?"

"I guessed it so quickly," Meng Dong opened the oil paper, revealing the fried golden fruit with sugar sprinkled on it. "You should be short of everything now. I have been thinking about what birthday gift to give you for a long time. Then I thought you would like it. Eat the candies that my sister-in-law made and brought to you.”

"But this is not made by my sister-in-law, I learned it from my sister-in-law. The appearance and taste are incomparable with the ones made by my sister-in-law. You just want to try it because I learned it specifically for you?" Meng Dong put the candy Holding it in his hand, he nervously handed it to Dong Jiafu.

Dong Jiafu looked at Guangzizi and then at her in surprise, "Did you do this?"

Meng Dong chuckled, "It's a birthday gift for you. It has to be made with your own hands to be sincere."

Dong Jiafu was moved after hearing this. Suddenly something occurred to her and she immediately lowered her head to check her hand.

"You don't know how to cook, and it's troublesome to make this. Did you get burned?" As she said, she found a few brown spots on the back of her hand.

Meng Dong put the candy into her hand, took his hand back and put it on his lap, covering the back of his hand with his hanging sleeves.

"I've always been clumsy when doing this kind of thing. I just got a few drops of oil on it, but it actually doesn't hurt. You don't have to worry." Meng Dong smiled heartlessly, looking completely indifferent, urging Dong Jia. Fu, "Afu, eat quickly, I'll watch you eat before you leave."

"Okay, I'll eat it." Dong Jiafu took out a piece. As she said, it was indeed not as good as her sister-in-law's.

To you, but this feeling is worth everything.

Dong Jiafu put the candy in her mouth and slowly finished it, nodding and praising: "It's fragrant and sweet, not inferior to my sister-in-law's. You must have put a lot of effort into it, right?"

Seeing that she liked it, Meng Dong was extremely happy, "I practiced in the dining room for several nights and finally got something good."

"Meng Dong, thank you for celebrating my birthday so carefully."

"This is nothing," Meng Dong waved his hand, his eyes fell on the box in front of him, and hesitantly said, "And this... the prince asked me to bring it to you."

Dong Jiafu's smile condensed on her face. She said some cruel words that day. She thought he would never want to have any contact with her in the future, but she didn't expect that he would send her something on her birthday.

Taking the box, Dong Jiafu rubbed the patterns on it and asked in a low voice: "Did he say anything?"

"The prince didn't say anything. He only told me to bring it to you." Seeing that she didn't move, Meng Dong couldn't help but said, "Why don't you open it and take a look?"

Dong Jiafu raised her eyes and finally opened the box in front of her.

"This is..." Meng Dong saw what was inside and said unexpectedly, "A needle?"

Dong Jiafu took out the needle bag, and after untying it, it turned out to be a complete set of silver needles.

"Hey, how did the prince know that you are learning acupuncture recently? This set of needles was given at the right time..." Seeing Dong Jiafu looking at her with a half-smile, Meng Dong quickly raised his hand, "I swear, I really didn't say this. , I didn’t tell anyone in the Duke’s Mansion, really.”

"Okay, I believe you. Even if it's what you said, it doesn't matter. It's not an important matter." Dong Jiafu rolled up the needle bag and put it back in the box.

When she was in Linqing County, she followed

The master had studied acupuncture, and he met Feng Jiyuan just after he had gained some knowledge. A series of things happened, and the matter was shelved. She originally thought she would have no chance to continue learning medical skills in this life, but she didn't expect that her master's family would also come to the capital. A few days ago, she picked up the subject of learning acupuncture again.

Dong Jiafu didn't want to delve into how Cui Qiyan knew about it, let alone guess his intention in sending this thing.

Meng Dong saw her expression in his eyes and struggled for a moment. He couldn't help but ask, "Afu, you and Mr. Feng have canceled your marriage. Can I tell you about this?"

After a brief silence, Dong Jiafu said: "There is no need to deliberately say it."

Does that mean you can tell me if you ask?

Meng Dong nodded heavily, "I understand."

She looked out the window and stood up and said: "The birthday gift has arrived, and it's time for me to leave. Afu, you must be happy today."

"Let me see you off..." Dong Jiafu stood up.

"No need," Meng Dong turned his eyes and saw Xia Zhi on the side, "Why don't you just let Xia Zhi take me out."

"That's fine." Dong Jiafu nodded towards Xia Zhi.

Xia Zhi sent Meng Dong out of the house and came back with a bunch of things.

Seeing that her steps were unsteady and struggling, Dong Jiafu immediately went to help her.

"Where did you get this from?" Dong Jiafu placed a heavy package on the table.

Xia Zhi still had another one in her hand. She put it down together and said, "After I sent Miss Meng Dong off, I ran into people sent by Mr. Lu and the eldest young lady of the Shen family. These are the birthday gifts they sent to the girl."

According to the original plan, today was the day when she and Feng Jiyuan were engaged, so no one was invited to her birthday. Didn't think about it

I can still receive gifts from so many people.

"Have they left?"

"I left after delivering my things. I invited them in for a cup of tea, but they declined."

Dong Jiafu pointed to the package she just received, "Who sent this?"

"It's the eldest young lady of the Shen family." Xia Zhi replied.

Dong Jiafu opened it and saw two pieces of good-quality cloth inside, which would look very good when used to make clothes.

The remaining package was sent by Lu Siheng. Dong Jiafu opened it and found a box inside. Then he opened the box and saw two sachets and two handkerchiefs, with a pile of books underneath.

Dong Jiafu frowned slightly, picked up the sachet and handkerchief, and found that the materials and embroidery on them were both excellent. How could he give such a thing? Putting down these two things, she flipped through the books at the bottom and found that they were all story books that she had never read.

In order to understand what kind of stories people here like to read, she and her second brother basically bought all the story books on the market, but she had never read these books.

The message book seems to be like that, the sachet is barely acceptable, but what the hell are those two handkerchiefs?

Just when Dong Jiafu was puzzled by what was in front of her, Chuncao came over and sent a message: "Girl, the Feng family's carriage has arrived. Madam asked you to come to the door to greet it."

"I'm coming right away," Dong Jiafu told Xia Zhi, "put all these things away first."

When Dong Jiafu arrived, Feng Meng's family of three had already entered.

Next to them came Dong Jingtang and Xu Yiwan, as well as the brothers Dong Jiabao and Dong Jialin, who came out to greet them.

Dong Jiafu quickly stepped forward and saluted, "Godfather, godmother, Afu is late..."

Fang

He smiled and helped her up, "It doesn't matter, today is your birthday, you are the oldest."
