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

Life returned to normal after returning to Beijing, except that Tan Hao officially went to work at the Imperial Hospital today.

When Dong Jiafu came out of the clinic, she saw Cui Qiyan waiting outside.

She walked towards him with a smile, "How long have you been here? Why don't you go in?"

"It won't be long. I don't want to disturb our female doctor Dong who is seeing patients, so I have to wait here." Cui Qi Yan said with a smile.

Dong Jiafu stood in front of him, raised her head slightly and said, "Then why did our Minister Cui have time to come here today? Has he finished his official duties?"

"Official business is not as important as you," Cui Qiyan quietly pulled her hand and whispered, "I miss you."

Dong Jiafu's face turned red, and she quickly pulled her hand back for fear of being seen outside the clinic.

Cui Qiyan let go of his hand at the right time and said, "Let's go, get in the car, I'll take you back."

After getting on the carriage, Cui Qiyan asked, "Is aunt's illness getting better?"

"I have only been taking the medicine for a short time, so I can't see any changes yet. But my mother is very happy. She only needs to take one pill a day instead of drinking such bitter medicine."

"How long does it take to recover from this medicine?"

"It will probably take about a month."

"It's already the twelfth lunar month." Cui Qi Yan sighed.

Dong Jiafu was puzzled, "What happened in the twelfth lunar month?"

"Afu, we have agreed in Xizhou that when my aunt recovers from her illness, I will go to your house to propose marriage." Cui Qiyan narrowed his eyes, "You wouldn't have forgotten such an important thing, right?"

"How is that possible? I didn't forget." Dong Jiafu raised her voice with a guilty conscience. She really didn't forget, she just didn't think of it for the time being. "What does this have to do with the twelfth lunar month?"

Cui Qiyan felt helpless, "We have to wait another month..."

Dong Jiafu chuckled, "A month actually goes by very quickly."

"To tell you the truth, I wish I could propose marriage tomorrow."

"But even if the marriage is decided tomorrow, it will still take several months to get married. Just like my second brother, his marriage was decided a long time ago, but he will have to wait until next year to get married."

"It's still different. I feel at ease after getting engaged."

Dong Jiafu couldn't help laughing, "I won't run away, what do you have to worry about?"

Cui Qiyan was not worried about her, but was afraid that something unexpected would happen. The words of the emperor that day woke him up. If someone with a higher status than him also fell in love with her, wouldn't it cause trouble?

He knew her good points too well, so it was easy for someone to fall in love with her.

Fortunately, the emperor now knows about their relationship. If others go to the emperor to grant marriage, this way will not work. Mr. Dong and his wife have A Fu, so he felt relieved.

Just one month.

"You're right. We've been through so much. No one and nothing can separate us." Cui Qi Yan looked at her deeply and said.

The carriage stopped in front of Dong's house and Cui Qi Yan got off to see her off.

"Go back." Dong Jiafu waved at him.

Cui Qiyan smiled and said, "I'll watch you go in."

"I'm almost there, let's go."

While the two were talking, Dong Jialin came over from the other direction. Seeing the two reluctant to leave, he said faintly, "How about inviting Master Cui in to sit down?"

"What is the second brother talking about? It's so late, he's leaving."

Dong Jialin looked up at the sky and said, "It is indeed late."

Why should he look up when it was so obvious?

Cui Qiyan understood, "I won't go in today. How about I go to the Second Young Master's teahouse to have tea with you another day?"

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for Master Cui to come."

Cui Qi Yan's gaze stayed on Dong Jiafu for a moment, then he turned around and got on the carriage.

The carriage drove away, and Dong Jiafu retracted her gaze, "Second brother is in a bad mood today?"

Dong Jialin shook his head. "No, why do you ask that?"

"Then why do you speak to him with hostility?"

"Do I have it?" Dong Jialin touched his nose.

"You have--" Dong Jiafu stared at him with her almond-shaped eyes.

Dong Jialin immediately begged for mercy, "I'm sorry, I lost control. When I thought about you marrying him, I couldn't stand him."

"Just for this? Do you think there's something wrong with him?"

"It's... it's not bad, it's just that my parents know about you two being together, and suddenly I feel uncomfortable that you will leave home soon."

Dong Jiafu understood, "Second brother, you are worrying too much. He and I haven't even started dating yet, so it's too early to talk about getting married now. But unless I stay single for the rest of my life, I will leave home sooner or later."

"It's not that I don't want you to get married," Dong Jialin said hurriedly, "Afu, I may just not be used to it. It will be fine after a few days. I promise that I won't be like this when I see him next time."

"Brother, I don't blame you. I am also reluctant to leave home. When you get married in the future, I will still be in Beijing, and we can still meet. Besides, by then, brother will have married Ru'er, and his attention will not be all on me. We all have to learn to adapt."

Dong Jialin nodded, "I understand. I'm really not as clear as you about some things."

"No way, my second brother is worried about me, I'm very happy." Dong Jiafu said sideways, "Let's go home."

"Okay," Dong Jialin followed her into the mansion, "By the way, I found another shop that is very suitable for a restaurant, but the location is a bit awkward, opposite the Qin family shop."

"What does it matter if it's the other side? We are all doing business. As long as Second Brother feels that other aspects are suitable, we don't need to care who the other side is."

"That's right. It's not our fault. Why should we avoid her? I'll go talk to the owner of the shop tomorrow. If the price is agreed, we'll settle on it."

"There are many things to do in running a restaurant. If you need me to do anything, just ask."

"There is one thing. The Fairy Sword Fairy you wrote is more popular than the previous storybooks. If you have time, why don't you start writing the next one?" Dong Jialin continued, "Miss Du came to the bookstore yesterday and specifically asked for it. She also urged you to write it quickly."

Dong Jiafu smiled and said, "We talked about it on the way back to Beijing. I didn't expect that she liked the storybook I wrote so much."

"She's so fierce and she treated you badly in the past. If she knew that the 'future guest' she likes is you, she would definitely be shocked."

The two of them talked as they walked, and unknowingly arrived at the main room.

Xu Yiwan came out and said, "I heard you two talking from a distance. Come in quickly. The food will be ready soon."

The brother and sister happily went into the house and waited for dinner.

From that day on, Dong Jiafu began to see patients in the clinic during the day and write storybooks in her room at night.

Dong Jialin went to see the shop again and after careful consideration, decided to rent it.

Now that he had found a place, he wanted to open the restaurant as soon as possible.

Now he had experience in business and had made many preparations for opening a restaurant. So after signing the contract, he immediately started to repair the restaurant, often working until very late before returning home.
