In this era, social status was clearly distinguished, and the etiquette between master and servant was strictly defined. Therefore, Lin Yong had the maids lead the two of them to a side hall.
Although it was a side hall, the preparations were quite abundant, not much less than theirs, which shows that Lin Yong was a shrewd person.
At the dinner table, bowls and plates clinked together, their crisp sounds like the murmur of a stream at night.
Mo Linyuan was aloof and disliked talking, so only Feng Qingge and Lin Yong's voices could be heard.
The meal lasted a full hour, and by then it was already pitch black outside, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face.
However, the Lin residence had already been lit up, and it was still brightly lit, as if it were daytime.
After the meal, Lin Yong sent a maid to lead the group to rest, and specifically instructed them not to pay attention to any strange noises that might occur at night.
When he said that Feng Qingge and the others were there to do something, they naturally understood, nodded, and went to their resting place with the maid.
The Lin family mansion has many small courtyards, each of which looks very unique, and the place where they lived was one of them.
The maids escorted the group back to their rooms, said goodbye, bowed, and then left with lanterns.
After a long day of activity, everyone was exhausted, and Feng Qingge had no interest in dealing with ghosts at the moment, so she went back to her room and fell asleep immediately.
The group didn't sleep well that night; there were strange noises throughout the night that kept them awake.
It seemed that Mo Linyuan next door got up very early in the morning. He could hear some noises in Feng Qingge's room, so she was woken up early.
She got up, looking rather irritated, ran her fingers through her long hair, her eyes filled with suppressed anger and a hint of coldness, her face showing vexation.
She got up and dressed. The maid outside the door heard the noise and quickly brought her toiletries.
After tidying everything up, she left the room, but was still filled with frustration.
Disturbed by ghosts at night and disturbed by people in the morning, Feng Qingge was thoroughly annoyed.
The courtyard was covered in white, which meant it must have snowed again yesterday, so the new snow covered the old snow, creating this scene.
Mo Linyuan was sitting in the flower hall drinking tea, with Hei Ming behind him, holding his sword and standing vigilant at all times.
A small stove was burning on the table, with a teapot on top, which was bubbling and emitting white smoke, filling the room with the aroma of tea.
Without further hesitation, Feng Qingge stepped inside, her earlier irritation vanishing completely at the sight before her.
The flower hall was very warm, with a warm feeling emanating from it. In the center of the hall, there was a large stove burning, from which the warmth came.
Hearing the sound, Mo Linyuan looked up and watched her walk towards him step by step. He poured a cup of tea, pushed it in front of her, and asked, "Why are you up so early?"
The person, who had been in a much better mood, raised an eyelid rudely upon hearing his question and said irritably, "The room isn't well soundproofed." Without saying anything more, she pushed the wall away.
Mo Linyuan chuckled, but it was only a slight, barely noticeable smile. "Looks like I've disturbed you."
"Nonsense." He leaned to the side, swaying back on the table, picked up a cup of hot tea, and warmed his frozen fingers.
"Hmm, it really is cold." He finished his cup of tea and sighed slowly.
"Hmm, it seems it will snow again today." Mo Linyuan also took a sip of tea, his movements elegant rather than as rude as Feng Qingge's.
"The weather is abnormally cold. I should have known better than to go out and not take on this troublesome matter." What a blunder.
I thought that after the snow stopped that day, the weather would be sunny for at least ten days or half a month, but I didn't expect it to get cold again so quickly, and it even snowed.
