There was something new on the dinner table on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Li Mofu stared at it for a long time.

It was a jade pot, white and green, with some lotus leaf patterns, and it looked very high-end.

"Is it milk?" Li Mofu asked as he sniffed the milk scent in the air.

"It's milk, sir." When Guozi saw him reaching out his hand, he immediately took the pot of milk away.

Li Mofu was slightly stunned and asked in confusion, "Isn't this for me to eat? I promise I won't finish it and will definitely leave some for you!"

Mo Yi sneered beside him.

"Of course it's for you, sir, but you can't eat it so fast tonight." Guozi said helplessly.

Li Mofu pouted. No wonder he wasn't given a bowl and chopsticks. "What are the rules of this wealthy family? When can I eat?"

"The young master specifically said he would come tonight, and he brought this milk from Wangyue Tower. It would be best for you to wait until the young master arrives before having dinner." Guozi frowned slightly and advised softly.

Li Mofu crossed his legs and shook the bench, "Do you want ginger milk?"

"You know?" Mo Yi was a little surprised.

Li Mofu hummed twice with pride. Even after filtering, the ancient milk still had a fishy taste. How could it be drunk directly? The most convenient way to remove the fishy smell was ginger juice.

"Have you eaten it, sir?" Guozi asked with a smile.

Li Mofu blinked and shook his head honestly.

Even in modern times, he had only heard of it and seen people in videos eating it, but he had never thought of trying it himself.

"Sir, you should eat two more bowls then. I heard they are very delicious." Guozi said with a smile.

"it is good."

"By the way, why did your young master suddenly want to come to my place for dinner?" Li Mofu asked curiously.

Guozi didn't know either, so he looked at Mo Yi.

Mo Yi coughed, "Isn't it Chinese New Year? The young master wanted to come over and talk to you."

"..." Li Mofu narrowed his eyes and looked at Mo Yi, "Why is your statement so weird?

Mo Yi raised his eyebrows and looked away.

Li Mofu rolled his eyes and didn't take it seriously.

Generally, Li Mofu would have dinner at 3:15 pm, which is around 6:00 am.

Because it gets dark early in winter, we eat earlier.

Li Mofu sat on the chair at the dining table and waited for a quarter of an hour. The dishes were cold and the fruits were heated up again.

As soon as Guozi left, Li Mofu couldn't stand it any longer. He howled and ran back to his room, "I'm starving! I'm going to sleep!"

“…”Mo Yi.

Returning to the room, Li Mofu lay down on the chaise longue, leaned against the pillow, crossed his legs, and then quietly took out a small package of snacks wrapped in oil paper from the small drawer under the coffee table.

This is the egg yolk pastry he hid this morning!

The male protagonist also brought it back from a restaurant or brothel. The egg yolk pastry is also salty, and the surface is fried, so it is very fragrant.

"Is it tasty?"

Someone asked from behind.

Li Mofu was feeling proud of his cleverness and nodded affirmatively, "It's delicious."

"I brought some fresh food, go and eat some new food." The voice said again, with a hint of smile in its tone.

Li Mofu finally reacted, licked his lips and looked up at the sky.

Lu Mingyun was wearing a dark red round-necked robe with cloud patterns and a ponytail, and her peach blossom eyes were looking at him with a smile.

Li Mofu put the remaining egg yolk pastry in his hand into his mouth, turned over and sat up, then put on his shoes quickly.

"Are you back from the banquet? Which building did you order snacks from today?" Li Mofu put on his shoes and quickly went to the main hall.

Leaving Lu Mingyun stunned there, he frowned and wondered, "When did I eat wine?"

Mo Yi stood nearby and turned away awkwardly, "Master, Master Li is just talking nonsense."

On the dining table in the main hall, Guozi placed the reheated dishes upstairs.

Guozi saw Li Mofu walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and knew that he didn't wear shoes properly. "Mr. Li, shoes will easily get damaged if they are not worn properly."

Li Mofu responded and squeezed into the chair, then pulled up his shoes and asked, "What new snacks are there?"

"I brought some cloud cakes and golden cake rolls, which are snacks from restaurants, not brothels, and I don't drink any brothel wine." Lu Mingyun followed him out and emphasized again.

Li Mofu saw Guozi bring the milk back and immediately said, "First, a cup of ginger milk!"

“…” Lu Mingyun, who was ignored, sat opposite Li Mofu.

Guozi didn't dare to move around. He looked at Li Mofu and then at Lu Mingyun.

"Let him drink first." Lu Mingyun said.

Guozi breathed a sigh of relief and poured Li Mofu a cup of ginger milk. "Young Master, have a try."

Li Mofu picked up the spoon and took a bite. It was quite delicious, but the ginger flavor was very strong. His eyes lit up, and then he looked at Lu Mingyun, "Why did you ask me tonight?"

"I'll have dinner with you." Lu Mingyun said.

Li Mofu glanced at him and started eating. He ate whatever he liked as usual, and also took a little of what he didn't like.

The two of them ate their own food, and Guozi would pick up some dishes for them from time to time.

Li Mofu doesn't eat much vegetables, so the fruit is usually filled with vegetables for him.

On the contrary, Guozi only picked up meat for Lu Mingyun.

After eating, Li Mofu went to rest.

Guozi wanted to call him, but thinking of Li Mofu's temper, he didn't stop him, for fear that he would cause trouble.

Li Mofu sat back on the round chair in the room and continued to read the remaining pages of his travel notes, with his feet resting on the footstool, stepping on it from time to time.

Lu Mingyun was left alone in the main hall to eat. He took a few more bites and then put down his chopsticks.

"How has Li Mofu been these days?" Lu Mingyun asked, pointing at the table.

Guozi quickly lowered his head and replied, "Mr. Li has been in a good mood these days and he likes the snacks that the young master brought back very much."

"Okay, I got it." Lu Mingyun stood up and walked into the house.

Guozi frowned slightly in worry, as he thought the young master would leave after dinner.

Li Mo was hunched in his chair. When he saw someone coming in, he looked up and asked, "What's going on?"

"Can't you come if there's nothing to do?" Lu Mingyun simply wanted to see what Li Mofu did every day.

Although Mo Yi would report to him every day, seeing is believing, and he felt more at ease seeing it with his own eyes.

"..." Li Mofu didn't like his face. If it was too good-looking, it would make him look ugly. "Why can't you come?"

Li Mofu grinned and put down the book, his eyes and eyebrows smiling.

Mo Yi, who was standing by, flicked his eyelids, thinking this was a sign that Li Mofu was going to cause trouble.

"Then would you like to stay, young master?" Li Mofu asked cheerfully.

Lu Mingyun blinked, confused, "What are you staying for?"

"I'll help you sleep~" Li Mofu propped up his chin and said sarcastically, "I can warm your bed~"

"..." Lu Mingyun's smile froze on his face, and he looked at Li Mofu in disbelief.

It was as if he was wondering why Li Mofu would say such a thing. Was he coveting him?

Mo Yi lowered his eyes and felt a headache. He thought, "Young Master, this won't be serious, will it?"

Li Mofu saw that his expression was very boring and pursed his lips, "Don't take it seriously, it's boring."

After saying that, he put one foot on the chair, looking quite unruly.

"I, I'm leaving first. Don't leave the yard these days. If you need anything, tell Guozi." After saying that, Lu Mingyun ran away.

Li Mofu glanced twice in the direction where Lu Mingyun left. "He's running so fast, can I still eat him?"

“…” Mo Yi closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

A quarter of an hour later, Guozi came in after packing up his things, and only then found that Lu Mingyun was missing.

"The young master is gone?" Guozi asked in confusion. Wasn't this person here just now?

Li Mofu flipped through a new book and replied, "I was scared away."

“……?” Guozi looked at Mo Yi.

Mo Yi had nothing to say and nodded. It was indeed true.

On the other side, Lu Mingyun quickly left Jingxiangyuan, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Finally, he stopped and thought about it carefully.

Could it be that Li Mofu already had feelings for him...

Lu Mingyun's face turned red and white.

Otherwise, what decent person would say such things and warm the bed!

Speaking of which, Li Mofu cared a lot about whether he went to the brothel to drink. Even if he was not there, he would often mock him for going to the brothel to drink with Mo Yi and Guozi.

Could it be that... he is jealous of those women?

Lu Mingyun frowned, then slowly walked back to Qinglian Courtyard.

"Master, you're back," Mo Zhu asked as soon as he saw him, "Are you going to the study? I'll pour you a cup of tea to moisten your throat."

"No, leave me alone." Lu Mingyun waved his hand and went upstairs.

Mo Zhu stood there in confusion. Wasn't the first thing the young master did when entering the study room to drink tea?

Why don’t you drink today?

====

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, there was a light snow in the early morning.

Li Mofu woke up inexplicably in the middle of the night and saw it when he went to flush the toilet.

After the water was added, he felt that his body heat had decreased a lot. He shivered with cold when the wind blew. So he didn't even look at the snow scene for long before crawling back into bed.

Just after noon, Li Mofu opened his eyes and heard the sound of snow being swept in the yard.

He stretched and sat up, picked out a set of clothes that Guozi had put together for him, put them on, put on his shoes, and left the house.

There was a lot of fallen snow in the yard, but it wasn't heavy enough to break the branches of the trees.

Guozi was sweeping snow in the yard. When he heard the noise, he turned around and asked, "Master, why are you up so early?"

Li Mofu took a deep breath and then grinned, "Because I'm hungry."

Guozi laughed and said, "The yard is not clean yet. Sir, please go inside first. I will go and urge breakfast."

Li Mofu nodded, then saw Guozi put the broom next to the small table before leaving the yard.

After Guozi walked away, Li Mofu happily grabbed the broom. He hadn't played in the snow for a long time, so it was a good opportunity to have some fun.

Qinglianyuan next door

Lu Mingyun stood on the second floor and watched Li Mofu drawing circles left and right with a broom. It seemed that he was sweeping snow, but in fact he was just playing.

"If you step on the snow while playing like this, you'll fall." Mo Zhu said worriedly as he stood behind Lu Mingyun.

Lu Mingyun frowned, "Don't talk nonsense, where is Mo Yi? Why don't I see him?"

"It's over." As soon as Mo Zhu finished speaking, Mo Yi walked into the next yard.

Then Mo Yi's voice came from Jingxiangyuan, telling Li Mofu not to play in the snow, but Li Mofu continued to sweep the snow with a broom and ignored him.

Fortunately, he didn't fall as Mo Zhu said.

Lu Mingyun went downstairs.

At three quarters past noon, a guest came to Qinglian Courtyard.

"Pure your heart!" Zhao Xu walked into the yard with his attendants and smiled when he saw Lu Mingyun.

"Hezhi." Lu Mingyun also said with a smile.

"Come on, let's go to your study and chat." Zhao Xu didn't know what good news he brought, and his eyes were narrowed so that he couldn't open them.
