"If you don't say anything, I will think you are your default?" Zhang Wanyou said happily, and reached out and pulled Zhang Dong aside, lifting the food box in her hand like a treasure, "Look, I made you delicious snacks, which I made by myself. Others can't eat. My brother hasn't eaten yet!"

"Yeah?"

"What am I lie to you?" Zhang Wanyou took out a piece of snack and handed it to him, saying expectantly: "You try it quickly, is it delicious?"

Zhang Dong clenched his fist, then slowly reached out to take it, his palm trembling slightly, Zhang Dong turned his body slightly, lowered his head and took a bite.

"Is it delicious?" Zhang Wanyou said, "Do you like it?"

"like……"

"Haha, then you won't be angry after eating my food!" Zhang Wanyou smiled and stuffed the food box to Zhang Dong, "Here, I'll give it to you!"

Zhang Dong was stuffed with his arms and took it at a loss, and said blankly: "Why are you so kind to me?"

"Is there any?" Zhang Wanyou was unconscious.

Zhang Dong smiled slightly. Yes, she was very nice to everyone, otherwise she would not have been rescued and would not have seen the sunshine in this world again.

"Hehe, then no one is allowed to give gifts from others in the future. You are only allowed to give gifts from brother." Zhang Wanyou made a domineering decision.

Zhang Dong was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."

Zhang Wanyou then breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the sky and said in shock: "Oh, the time for piano practice is up, then I'll leave first, you can't hide from me anymore!"

Looking at Zhang Wanyou's hurriedly leaving, the smile on Zhang Dong's face slowly disappeared.

Back in the room, I put the food box in my hand on the table, carefully took out the snacks, and then placed them on the table seriously, without eating them, just staring blankly, smiling from time to time, imagining what mood the person who made the snacks would make them, whether they would get tired of the flour or cough by the stove fire, but just thinking about it makes me feel trembling.

Zhang Dong suddenly remembered the desires and admiration that were carefully hidden in the deepest part of his heart when he was a child.

He never forgot the person who saved him. Although he was already unconscious at the time, he just took a vague look, but he firmly remembered her voice.

She said he was so pitiful.

She said save him.

She said let's take him home.

Let's take him home...

Home……

He thought in a daze, what is home?

After that, he saw many people, but he didn't see her again. He didn't dare to ask, afraid that he would be kicked out if he said the wrong thing. So he rushed to help people everywhere, and even when he was young, he could only walk around the prescribed place. Moreover, the General's Mansion was really too big. Even if he was young and ignorant, there were too many places he could not go.

It was not until the general's house banquet that he finally saw her. Because as soon as she spoke, he knew it was her. She ran to the general's wife like a butterfly, laughed at everyone around her, and hung on her brother's body and rolled around. At that time, he thought, she must be a fairy, right?

He was so little that he envied everyone who could get close to her.

He observed quietly and then found that the inner house in the mansion was where the women lived, and even the servants in the family could not enter and exit at will.

"Then why can he go in?" he asked as if he was ignorant.

"That's the young master's bodyguard, so you can go in." The butler who took him to answer.

He no longer dared to ask, and after some time he found an opportunity to ask others how he could become a young master's bodyguard.

"As long as you have excellent martial arts skills or have extraordinary talents, as long as you are outstanding enough, you will naturally be appreciated by the young master."

He wrote down, working harder and harder, practiced day and night. He only hoped to grow up quickly and become stronger quickly.

Finally, he could go into the inner house with the young master. Holding the gift in his palm, he felt that he was trembling.

He dared not listen, dared not look up, and dared not look up. He carefully hid himself in the corner, and only dared to listen, look up quietly and glance up quietly.

She asked him, and he was so nervous that he didn't know what to say, thinking that nothing was right, so he didn't know anything, just hoped that she would stay away from him and let him look at him from afar. He was afraid that she would get closer, the eyes in his eyes would be exposed and the smile on his lips would spread.

He carefully remembered every word she said, and he cherished the food she gave as if he treated the most precious treasure in the world.

But as time goes by, he found that he could not control himself anymore and wanted more.

He looked at her and smiled, and wanted to keep watching;

He listened to her and wanted to listen all the time;

She pestered him to tell stories, and he wanted to keep telling them;

She looked at him expectantly, and he couldn't say "no".

He went there more and more times, and stayed longer and more. Rumors gradually spread in the mansion. He was scared and then suddenly realized that he was so close to her without realizing it. This was a very dangerous distance for both of them.

He stopped in time.

But she came again.

Zhang Dong looked at the snacks on the table, and the worry in his eyes was unstable. Finally, he sneered. He was thinking too much. She was kind-hearted and always treated everyone sincerely. Her avoidance made her uneasy. What kind of virtue could she be a little guard? A few rumors were just laughing at people. Maybe I forgot in a blink of an eye that my identity was just a servant...

He practiced martial arts more and more diligently, helped the young master handle various affairs, suppressed bandits and pacified foreigners and other matters, and never retreated. He could not stay in the mansion for a few days a month, and sure enough, the rumors slowly dispersed.

That year was the Chinese Valentine's Day. The legendary day when Chang'e and Cowherd met, Zhang Wanyou pestered Zhang Ji and said, "Brother, it's the Chinese Valentine's Day in seven days. Take me out for a walk. I heard that it was very lively that day and there are fireworks to watch."

"You haven't seen fireworks before," Zhang Ji smiled and said, "Don't think about finding reasons to go out. You are already a sixteen-year-old girl now. You can't go out as casually as you were when you were a child."

"Why can't it work? Who will know me if I wear a hat then?" Zhang Wanyou said.

"That's not OK. What if an accident occurs? No one can guarantee it." Zhang Ji said, "You told your brother what you want? I'll buy it for you."

"Hmph!" Zhang Wanyou was angry, "You can't give me what I want, I will just use those cold things to coax me. I will ignore you."

Zhang Ji shook his head helplessly. He knew that he would not be able to coax the little ancestor even if he stayed there, so he took Zhang Dong away.

The Chinese Valentine's Day is here in a blink of an eye. Zhang Ji responded to his friend's appointment to watch the lanterns. When he arrived at the place, Zhang Ji asked Zhang Dong to act freely.

"You don't have to always follow me, relax and take a walk around yourself." Young Master Zhang Ji said unwillingly, feeling a little sorry for his subordinate. Speaking of so many years, the two of them have nominally had a superior and subordinate relationship, but in fact they have long been in love with their brothers. However, Zhang Dong abides by his identity and never goes beyond the rules. Zhang Ji has no choice but to trust and value him more and more.

Seeing that Zhang Ji had made up his mind to let him turn by himself, Zhang Dong agreed to leave, but he did not stay away and just walked around the nearby street market.

While he was distracted, he was suddenly hit by someone. Zhang Dong didn't care and did not intend to pursue the matter. He was about to leave, but he heard the man apologizing, and then stopped and looked at the man in surprise.

The man was petite, only reaching his chest and wearing a cap on his head, and he could vaguely see the familiar facial contours.

"Miss!" Zhang Dong shouted, then looked around, but saw that there was no familiar servant following the man. He saw that he was dressed in long sleeves and wide robe and looked like a man in a long-sleeved and wide robe. He must have sneaked out. Looking at the crowds around him, fortunately, no one paid attention to everyone's words, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ah," Zhang Wanyou exclaimed, "Zhang Dong!" Then she took off her hat.

Zhang Dong looked up and saw a pretty cheek, with black hair and high bunches of eyes looking at himself, "Did you recognize me?"

"Put your hat back quickly!" Zhang Dong was startled, and he reached out to help her, and he was not stupid, and he was at a loss for a moment.

"Hehe, what are you afraid of?" Zhang Wanyou said happily, then lowered her face and grabbed Zhang Dong and hid behind him, and glanced nervously around, "Where are my brothers here? Where are my brothers?"

Zhang Dong's body stiffened, and he didn't dare to move, and said with a stuttering, "Young Master is not here."

Zhang Wanyou then breathed a sigh of relief, then patted her chest, "I'm scared to death."

Zhang Dong's eyes fell on her chest as her hands fell, and then quickly turned away, "It's too dangerous for you to come out alone. Come with me quickly and I'll take you back."

"I don't!" Zhang Wanyou shook her head firmly, "I finally came out and didn't just go back like this. I'll tell you, if you force me to take me back, I'll call me illegitimate!"

"No!" Zhang Dong panicked, and covered her mouth with conditioned reflex. He felt the softness of his palm and quickly retracted it as if it was burned. His arms that fell beside him were shaking violently.

Zhang Wanyou seemed to be stunned, and reached out to touch her lips, feeling strange. No man had ever touched her so close. He only felt that the other person's palm was hot and hard, completely different from his soft hands.

"I didn't mean it." Zhang Dong didn't dare to look up.

Zhang Wanyou felt strange and embarrassed at first, but when she saw Zhang Dong's face turned pale, and the other party was younger than her, she couldn't help but feel softer again, "Hmph, if you said it wasn't intentional, it wasn't intentional, I don't believe it."

"It's true!" Zhang Dong looked up and said anxiously: "I really didn't mean it. If I have any unreasonable thoughts, I'll fight you-"

"Oh, OK, OK." Zhang Wanyou interrupted him, "Why do you have to make such a heavy oath? But if you don't catch me, I will forgive you. If you dare to catch me, I will tell my brother!"

"This..." Zhang Dong hesitated.

"Okay, okay, will it be fine in a while?" Zhang Wanyou begged, clasping her hands together and asking, "I'll just go around for a while. What else can I worry about when you follow me?"

"Okay then." Zhang Dong was helpless.

"Yeah!" Zhang Wanyou almost jumped up.

So Zhang Wanyou looked like a bird who was having fun, and looked at it and was curious, and she went around between each stall. After a while, Zhang Dong had already stuffed a lot of small objects in his hand.

Zhang Dong followed behind, his eyes coming and going with the figure in front of him. Suddenly, the man turned his head and looked at him, with a smile on his face, and the lights around him fell on it became more and more gentle and delicate.

Zhang Wanyou ran towards him with a smile all the way, almost pounced in front of him.

"Look at what this is!" Zhang Wanyou excitedly held a bunch of candied haws and held them in front of Zhang Dong, and asked and answered himself: "This is candied haws. I have seen them before, but my parents and brother never bought them for me, saying that they were unclean. I can finally eat them today!"

"General and General's wife are for your own good." Zhang Dong said.

Zhang Wanyou wrinkled her little nose, snorted, then looked at Zhang Dong hanging all over her body and laughed again, and delivered the candied haws in her hand to Zhang Dong's mouth, "Here, for your hard work, let you eat it first!"

"No, no need!" Zhang Dong was surprised, shook his head and took a step back.

"Oh, what do you want to eat?" Zhang Wanyou raised the candied haws again.

Zhang Dong couldn't, so he had to open his mouth and take a bite.

"Is it delicious? Is it delicious?" Zhang Wanyou said.

"It's delicious." Zhang Dong nodded, and the sour and sweet taste in his mouth slowly dizzed, and he suddenly fainted into his heart.

"Then I'll buy this for you." Zhang Wanyou stuffed the candied haws into Zhang Dong's hand without saying a word, and turned around and bought a bunch of them again.
