"Ning'er." A delicate call suddenly sounded outside the door. The two people in love woke up suddenly as if they were electrocuted, and turned their heads to look at the door of the house together.

"Ning'er, what's wrong with Brother Seven? Are you drunk?" Lu Qi and Ning'er looked at each other in shock and separated. The person who came was Zhou Yue'er.

"Madam Chang, Young Master, the Seventh Master just lay down." Ning'er said hurriedly, while tidying up her clothes, signaling Lu Qi to go to bed. Lu Qi walked to the bed and lie on the clothes helplessly, feeling very angry.

Ning'er walked to the door and opened the door. Outside the door was Zhou Yue'er and a slightly black-looking maid standing.

"Madam Chang Shao, the Seventh Master is a little drunk and just lay down." Ning'er repeated respectfully.

"Ning'er, Madam and I go to see my grandmother, and by the way, I will meet Yan'er's cousin. Madam asks you to go and see it too. The seventh brother will leave it to Dongqing for care." Ning'er understood, nodded and left with Zhou Yue'er. The maid Dongqing entered the house instead of Ning'er.

Seeing Ning'er leaving, Lu Qi suddenly felt lost and was also worried. He knew that his mother was going to go on a blind date for him. He did not agree with his mother's blind date for him, but he could not agree with him. Most of the marriages of his children are controlled by his parents. His mother is a traditional official woman. The traditional patriarchal rules in his thoughts are never destroyed. Lu Qi is filial and unwilling to directly rebel against his mother's behavior. He was worried that the woman his mother liked would not be liked by himself. After all, this is a lifelong event.

After lying silent for a long time, he stretched out his body in annoyance. "Young Master Lu, do you want to drink water?" A light female voice sounded in Lu Qi's ear. Lu Qi turned his head and saw that it was a maid. He forgot that the holly maid was in the room.

"No, I'm not thirsty, thank you." Lu Qi said in a harmonious voice.

"Young Master Lu, don't be polite. Please tell me if you have any questions." Dongqing said lightly.

Lu Qi glanced at Holly and saw that Holly was fourteen or fifteen years old. Although her skin was slightly thick/black, her face and facial features were upright. Although she was young, she gave people a steady and pretty beauty. He smiled and said, "Your name is Holly. I have never seen you outside."

Dongxiang nodded and said, "Yes, I am working under the kitchen."

Lu Qi nodded, pondered for a moment and smiled, "Holly, have you ever seen Miss Zhou Yaner?"

Dongqing smiled sweetly and said, "Young Master Lu wants to know about Miss Yan'er."

Lu Qi's face turned hot, he sat up and took out ten cents from his arms, handed them to Dongqing and said in harmony: "You are so smart, you can keep this, let's talk."

Dongqing glanced at the copper coins and shook her head and said, "I can't take this money. I'll ask if you have anything to say."

Lu Qi was stunned when he heard this. For the first time, he met a slave who was not greedy for money. He felt a little respectful to this Dongqing. He took the money back and smiled and said, "Holly, how long have you been in the Zhou family?"

Holly said softly: "It's been more than a year."

Lu Qi said in harmony: "It was because my family was poor that I sold myself to the Zhou family, right?"

Dongqing nodded and said softly: "Yes, my family owed Mr. Zhou five years of land rent, but it really couldn't be paid. There was no food at home, so I begged Mr. Zhou to take me in."

Lu Qi felt sad when he heard this. He remembered his younger sister. She was poor and sold herself to Xiao’s house as a maid, but she refused to go home after going to redeem herself. Does the younger sister really want to go home?

"Holly, are you willing to be a slave in the Zhou family or are you willing to go home?" Lu Qi asked for regret.

"I am willing to be a servant in the Zhou family. Master Zhou and his wife are very kind to me. I have no clothes at home and can only drink a small bowl of porridge every day. I can eat enough every day in my hometown in Zhou." Dongqing replied in a soft voice.

Lu Qi was stunned when he heard this. The poor man would rather be a slave to a rich family than a free civilian. After a moment of silence, he said in harmony: "Holly, I have a little sister who sells herself in a family like you when her family is poor. She became the personal maid of the lady of the official family. When I came back, I used the money to redeem it, but my little sister refused to go home and said that the lady was kind to her and would be a maid of the lady's dowry in the future. Do you think my little sister really doesn't want to go home?"

Dongqing was stunned and said in a low voice: "This servant dare not talk nonsense. I think the young master's sister must be a beautiful girl. Most of the female maids who are the female maids of the official family are very happy. After the female maids married outside, the maids who dowed them to the husband's family will go to the maids of the family. If they serve the male protagonist, they will become famous concubines, because they are with the lady, and their status is higher than that of the concubine. The young master's sister may not want to redeem herself and go home because of this."

Lu Qi said thoughtful, thinking in his heart that his sister Xiaoyan was still young and refused to go home was probably influenced by Aunt Cheng. If the family had no worries about food and clothing, who would be willing to be a slave for others to drive?

He pondered for a moment and looked up and said, "Holly, thank you."

Dongqing said in a soft voice: "Please don't thank me, I dare not take it."

Lu Qi smiled kindly. Dongqing looked at Lu Qi and hesitated, as if he had something to say. Lu Qi saw it and smiled, "Dongqing, do you have something to say?"

Dongqing's face changed a little panic, and she lowered her head and said in a soft voice: "Young Master Lu, I want to ask, do you want me at home?"

Lu Qi was stunned and smiled and said, "Do you want to go to my house?"

Dongqing said softly: "Yes, Mr. Zhou and his wife are great charitable people. They are very tolerant of tenants and are very good to my servants. However, the Zhou family also has some difficulties. They raise ten servants, most of whom are kindly taken in by the master and his wife. There are too many people. If the young master's family lacks slaves, I beg the young master to buy them, and I am willing to go to the young master's house to serve Miss Yue'er."

Lu Qi was moved when he heard this. This was a kind girl who was grateful for her. He smiled and said, "You can buy you to my house, but are you willing to serve my sister-in-law only?"

Dongqing was stunned and hurriedly said, "No, I can serve Mrs. Lu."

Lu Qi smiled and said, "Don't you want to serve me?"

Holly was stunned, and the thick/black oval face immediately turned red. He lowered his head and said in a humiliating voice: "I am ugly and I am not qualified to serve the young master."

Lu Qi was stunned and understood that Dongqing had misunderstood. He thought to himself that this girl was not old and knew about men and women. He did not want to hurt Dongqing's self-esteem and said gently: "You are very pretty and not ugly."

Holly held his hands in front of him, and after a while, he said softly: "I am willing to serve the young master."

Lu Qiyi smiled and said seriously: "Holly, I bought you, the Zhou family will collect my money. My mother or my sister-in-law will buy you. The Zhou family can only give away, but they will not collect money. The Zhou family is not well-off now. If my family buys it, you must give the Zhou family money. When you go to my house, you will go to serve my sister-in-law. Do you understand these?"

After hearing this, Dongqing suddenly realized it, and immediately became embarrassed. He knelt down and said in a low voice: "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Mr. Thank you, and I am also a kind-hearted person."

When Lu Qi heard this, he smiled bitterly. He said that he was really ashamed of being a good person. He had never done anything bad in his five-year military career. The simple heart of a young man at that time had already become numb, and he just pretended to be a good person at home.

"Get up, don't kneel when you see me in the future." Lu Qi said in harmony. He felt a little warm family affection for Dongqing. Perhaps it was his sister's return that made him feel sad.

Dongqing stood up and said softly: "Young Master, do you want to know about Miss Yan'er?"

Lu Qi really liked this girl with a erotic heart in her heart, and said with a faint smile: "I want to know, my sister-in-law wants to propose marriage for me. Can you tell me the truth about Miss Yan'er?"

Dongqing hesitated for a moment and said softly: "I really mean, can you not get angry?"

Lu Qi was stunned and smiled and said, "Tell me why are you angry? Tell me."

Dongqing said softly: "Young Master, as I see, Miss Yan'er is as beautiful as a fairy, and she is good at writing and poetry. She plays the piano very nicely. I heard that Miss Yan'er doesn't like martial artists and admires literary and elegant scholars more. I know that the young master is a martial artist, so I can't get it if I personally mention it."
