At night, Xin Yi arrived at Lu Ling's yard.
Her eyes were still swollen and she didn't speak when she saw Lu Ling.
Lu Ling glanced at her and asked, "Has Doctor Qi's accommodation been arranged?"
Xin Yi lowered his head and hummed.
Lu Ling just nodded lightly.
She finally understood that Xin Yi was not an honest girl at all.
If she returns to the Song family and leaves Xin Yi in the Lu family, she might cause some trouble in the Lu family.
So Lu Ling decided to take her with him first, and find her a good family once her filial piety period was over. This was a way to repay Butler Du's kindness for working for the Lu family for so many years.
"Go get hot water, I want to take a bath." Lu Ling ordered again.
Xin Yi brought hot water and didn't take the initiative to help Lu Ling undress. He still just stood by and lowered his head.
Seeing her downcast face, Lu Ling didn't feel comfortable scolding her. He was about to ask another second-class maid outside to wait on her when Haitang came in.
Seeing Xin Yi standing like a piece of wood, she couldn't help but said, "Why don't you serve the lady?"
Xin Yi raised his head and looked at Haitang sideways.
Lu Ling waved his hand and said, "Xin Yi, please go out."
Xin Yi glared at Haitang, threw the handkerchief to her angrily, turned around and walked out quickly.
Haitang sighed and said to Lu Ling: "Miss, Xin Yi is becoming more and more unruly."
"She's still blaming me." Lu Ling replied calmly.
Haitang helped Lu Ling take off her clothes and said, "I have never seen Xin Yi lose her temper with her master before."
"That's all, I just doted on her like this because of the relationship between Housekeeper Du and my father. I hope she can slowly return to her former self after following me to Weicheng."
Haitang shrugged and helped Lu Ling take off all her clothes, and suddenly found that the inner sides of her thighs were covered with black scabs.
She was so frightened that her face turned pale: "Miss, when did you get injured? Why is it so serious?"
Lu Ling lowered his head and said with a smile: "Why are you making such a fuss? Isn't this already fine?"
"Miss, this is going to leave scars! If you don't feel sorry for me, I still feel sorry for you! I'll ask Dr. Qi if he has any medicine to remove scars."
Lu Ling stopped her: "Isn't this hidden under the clothes?"
She felt that Haitang would probably be the only one she could see in this life, and she would feel sorry for him.
She doesn't care anymore.
Haitang wiped her tears and said, "It's all my fault. I should have gone to the capital with you. I don't know what suffering you suffered on the way."
As he spoke, he used a handkerchief dipped in water to help her wipe the wound bit by bit, for fear of hurting Lu Ling.
Lu Ling touched her cheek and said with a smile: "Stop crying, I want to tell you something."
"What's the matter?" Haitang asked, raising her face.
"Tomorrow, ask Manager Liu to go to Weicheng to help me buy a house. It should be quieter, bigger, and closer to the Song family."
"Ah? Miss, are you taking your wife to Weizhou?"
Lu Ling nodded: "Yes, mother still wants me to take care of her personally, but I don't trust her living in the Song family."
If her mother-in-law knew that her mother had this disease, there was no telling how she would tease and humiliate her.
Haitang immediately figured out the reason. She nodded in agreement and then asked, "What about the young master?"
"Of course the Lu family needs him to take care of it. He is already very tired from studying and taking care of the house."
The master and servant were talking in the inner room, but Xin Yi heard everything in the outer room.
When she learned that she was really going to be taken away from the Lu family, she suddenly became an ant on the hot pot. A treasonous idea flashed in her mind, and she was determined to implement it now.
Quietly arriving outside Lu Cheng's study, she touched the window and peered through the crack in the window.
Lu Cheng was still reading with a candle lit.
The dim light shone on his delicate cheeks.
There was a rustling sound as the pages of the book were turned.
At this time, he seemed to have encountered some problem. His eyes were squinted, his brows were furrowed, and his gaze stayed in one place for a long time without moving.
Boom, boom, boom.
Xin Yi knocked on the window three times.
Lu Cheng raised his head and opened the window.
When he saw Xin Yi, he was surprised.
Xin Yi quickly put his index finger in front of his lips to silence, and whispered: "Master, I have something to tell you."
Lu Cheng looked back at Mo'er. She was tired after waiting for Lu Cheng to wash up, and now she was leaning there and dozing off.
Lu Cheng quietly stood up and tiptoed out of the study.
When Xin Yi saw Lu Cheng, he took his hand and walked out.
"Xinyi, if you have anything to say, say it here."
Xin Yi turned around and whispered: "Master, please stop talking. I will take you to see something."
"What?" Lu Cheng thought to himself that she must still be angry because he had just punished her today.
"You'll find out soon."
Lu Cheng was full of curiosity, so he followed Xin Yi obediently.
After walking for a long time, it became darker and darker everywhere.
Lu Cheng couldn't help but ask: "Sister Xinyi, are you going to take me to see the fireflies? Don't forget, I'm grown up now, and I'm no longer a child."
He couldn't help laughing as he said this.
"Master, I could make you happy with fireflies when you were little, but I can't do that anymore. Besides, where did the fireflies come from on this autumn night?"
"Then where are you taking me?" Lu Cheng became more and more confused.
"Right here." Xin Yi pulled Lu Cheng to stand under a tree in the garden.
Lu Cheng looked up and looked around in confusion. It was pitch black and there was no one around.
"Xin Yi, what do you want me to see? It's so dark here!"
"Master, why are you thinking about other things?"
Xin Yi suddenly rushed into Lu Cheng's body like he did during the day, and put his arms around his waist.
After Lu Cheng's experience today, he was no longer frightened, just surprised.
He still instinctively reached out to push her: "Xin Yi, what are you doing?"
Xin Yi strangled his waist and refused to let go. When he spoke, his voice was soft and pitiful: "Master, can you let me get close to you for a while? You know, Miss Cai just said that she will take me to the Song family." , I may never see you again in the future."
She knew that no matter what, Lu Cheng would listen to Lu Ling's arrangements. If she wants to stay, she can only rely on herself.
When Lu Cheng heard this, he felt a little disappointed.
But then I thought about it, I must have had my own reasons for doing this.
So he comforted her in a low voice: "No, even if you go to the Song family, we can still meet when Sister A comes back or when I go to see Sister A."
"Master, why don't you understand anything?" Xin Yi buried his face deeply in Lu Cheng's chest, with a hint of blame in his tone.
Lu Cheng gradually felt something was wrong and pushed her again: "Sister Xinyi, you can't be so close to me. If others find out, it will be bad for your reputation."
"I don't want any reputation. I am a servant of the Lu family. I just want to stay by your side!"
Xin Yi's voice suddenly rose, with a hint of crying.
"Xin Yi?" Lu Cheng felt that his chest was a little hot from her face. Xin Yi finally let go of his waist, and just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Xin Yi held his hand again, raising his face and begging: "Master, you go and tell the lady tomorrow that I am already yours, let me Miss, don’t take me away, okay?”
"Ah?" Lu Cheng felt his head buzzing, and he had only a partial understanding of what she said.
"Master, please..." Xin Yi said, grabbing Lu Cheng's hand and stretching it into his collar.
The warm and soft touch exploded in Lu Cheng's mind.
His body froze for a moment as if he had been electrocuted, and then he forcefully pulled his hand back from her collar.
"Xin Yi, you're crazy!" He growled in a trembling voice, turned around and shook off Xin Yi's hand and wanted to run away.
"Master, don't leave!"
