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

Two days later in the evening, a maid from Yiyue Pavilion came over and told Yunling that there was a boy looking for her outside the courtyard gate.

Yunling walked over doubtfully and became convinced when she saw the tall and thin figure standing outside the door.

"Brother Baoxiang, you are here to give me rouge, right?"

She didn't have the same friendship with him since childhood as Meng Dong, so naturally she couldn't follow Meng Dong in calling him brother Xiangzi. It wasn't appropriate to call him by his first name. Besides, she still asked someone for help, so after thinking about it, she decided to use this title.

Without Meng Dong around this time, Baoxiang was already nervous. Now that he heard her calling his name, his heart couldn't help but beat fast, and he became more and more afraid to look into her eyes. He handed the package in his hand to her, "Well... Yunling, this is the rouge you asked for. I bought it according to the color Meng Dong said. She asked me to buy it and bring it to you directly."

Yunling took it with a smile, "Brother Baoxiang, please run errands again."

"No trouble, it's just a matter of convenience," Baoxiang waved his hand quickly, then pointed at the package, "Why don't you open it and take a look?"

"No need, I feel confident in Brother Xiangzi's work."

"You'd better take a look. If you don't like it, I can change it for you."

Seeing his persistence, Yunling reached out to unpack the package.

"It's inconvenient for you to see like this. I'll hold it for you to see." Baoxiang took the package back into his hands, opened it and put it in front of her eyes.

"Brother Baoxiang should be more careful." Yunling took out a box and opened it and looked at it. "The rouge is very beautiful."

"As long as you like it." The distance between the two people narrowed, and Baoxiang's ears felt a little hot.

Neither of them noticed that someone was walking towards them.

Cui Qiyan came back from his shift and happened to hear their last few words.

Ji Bai, who was following him, naturally heard it.

The person he met was an acquaintance, and the conversation between the two was really inappropriate for people to listen to. He glanced at Cui Qiyan, the prince valued etiquette the most.

He bravely asked, "Isn't this Brother Baoxiang?"

When he heard someone calling him, Baoxiang turned his head and looked over, "Brother Ji."

Then he turned around and bowed in fear, "Young man, I have met the Crown Prince."

Yunling also put away her rouge and saluted.

Cui Qiyan saw with sharp eyes that there were several boxes of rouge in the package in front of Baoxiang, and then glanced at the one in Yunling's hand, and thought to himself: With so many gifts, can her skinny face be used for it?

Ji Baihe asked deliberately: "Baoxiang, are you here to see your mother?"

Baoxiang lowered his head and replied: "No, it's not Brother Ji..."

Brother, you are too honest. Ji Bai had no choice but to look between him and Yunling suspiciously, "Do you know each other?"

"Yunling is Meng Dong's friend and asked me to bring her something."

"That's it." Ji Bai said in a long voice.

Because of Wu's mother's relationship, Ji Bai heard a lot about Meng Dong and knew that he and Meng Dong had known each other since childhood.

Cui Qiyan walked towards the courtyard with his legs up.

Ji Bai raised his hand and patted Baoxiang's shoulder, "Let's go." He quickly followed.

Baoxiang returned the package to Yunling, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

"Brother Baoxiang, walk slowly." Yunling put the rouge on her hand back into the package.

In the evening, Yunling sent Rouge to Qingdai, Polygonatum odoratum, Ziyuan and Zisu respectively, thanking them for their care. There is no woman who does not love beauty, so the four of them happily accepted it. There is one box left, which is for Meng Dong.

At the end of the month, while Cui Jun and Cui Qiyan were taking a break, the eldest lady took her husband and children back to her parents' home.

Kang

The princess passed away many years ago, and the imperial concubine took care of the inner courtyard of Prince Kang's palace. The imperial concubine was several years older than the eldest lady. When she married into the palace, as the youngest legitimate daughter of King Kang, the eldest lady was still a married woman. The aunt and sister-in-law had lived together for several years and had very different tempers.

Every time the eldest lady goes back, the princess will greet them warmly.

Qingdai and Yuzhu, who followed the three girls to Prince Kang's Mansion, Yunling also took advantage of this opportunity to send Rouge to Meng Dong.

"How come I still have a share in this?" Meng Dong asked in surprise when receiving Yan Zhi's message.

"Of course I can't do without you," Yun Ling asked her, "I feel a little sorry for always bothering Baoxiang to bring things for me. What do you think I should give him as a thank you gift?"

Meng Dong withdrew his gaze from Rouge, "Why don't you give me a thank you gift? No need to give it, Brother Xiangzi is not an outsider."

"That's it for you and him. I don't have that deep a friendship with him, so I can't always let him help me with peace of mind."

Meng Dong thought for a while, "Then wait for a while, wait until you get to know each other before sending it. It would be too awkward to send it now. Brother Xiangzi will think that you don't treat him as a friend, and most likely he won't accept it. Wait. It’s different when it’s cooked and then given away, just like us, we don’t regard the things the other party gives us as a burden.”

Yunling suddenly understood, "What you said makes sense."

Meng Dong said proudly: "Of course. That's what friends are like, you trouble me, I trouble you, trouble each other, help each other, and the friendship will be established over time. If you do everything by yourself and don't need help, others will be embarrassed. If I ask you for help, how can I become a friend?"

"I'm really not as good as you in this aspect." Yunling admired Meng Dong's behavior.

Point, it was Meng Dong who took the initiative to talk to her in the first place, and that's why the two of them had their current relationship.

She is not good at communicating with others, perhaps because of her upbringing. When she was in school, she was often unable to go to school for a long time because of illness. When she returned, she felt strange to her classmates. She might fall ill again before they could get to know each other better.

Over time, there were not many people who could become friends with her, and she gradually got used to being alone.

Meng Dong looked at her seriously, "Actually, you are too tight. If you receive a little kindness from others, you want to return it double to others. Relax a little and accept the kindness from others calmly. You deserve it."

Yunling's heart was shocked. She didn't expect that Meng Dong looked careless, but he could see the deepest part of her heart. She nodded: "I will try to change."

"You are fine even if you don't change. You are beautiful, generous, kind, and know so many things. You don't need to be perfect in everything. Just be happy."

Meng Dong suddenly pouted as he spoke, "I regret it. If you listened to me, wouldn't there be many friends around you in the future? Will you still have time to think of me? Don't change it, just tell me everything I said. Forget it, forget it all!”

Yunling was amused by her, "It is true that I have completely forgotten some things, but I can't just forget it. I promise you, no matter how many friends I have in the future, you will always come first, no matter who I am. Neither can be shaken.”

"This is what you said, and I have written it down. If you treat others better than you do to me in the future, I will translate this sentence to you and say it to you." Meng Dong tried his best to put on a serious expression.

Yunling couldn't help but pinch her face, "Why do you make me feel like a loser?"

Like a man of heart. "

Meng Dong was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

Both of them had errands to do and couldn't stay any longer, so they separated after speaking.
