Chapter 10: I am such a noble and handsome man
"My shoes always wear out quickly. I'm not used to wearing the things made by the embroidery room. I don't know how many more pairs of shoes you can make for me before I die..."
Shanzha was extremely heartbroken, but when she saw her sister pick up the pink embroidered handkerchief, she felt something was wrong.
When have you ever used such materials to make shoes?
After having this suspicion, she vaguely felt some clues.
The way my sister was gnawing on the chicken leg just now didn’t look like she was sick at all, right?
Thinking of this, she nervously stuffed a black satin embroidery beside her into Wenjiu's hand.
He glanced outside and his heart began to lift.
"bump..."
Suddenly, I heard the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.
Everyone looked towards the door.
Su Peisheng's eyes were red, and he lay on the ground in embarrassment, not knowing what to do. He was so engrossed in listening that he accidentally leaned against the door and fell in.
The Fourth Master, who had already turned around and was about to go back to the front yard, suddenly froze and felt unwell.
He coughed and turned away.
After a few steps, I felt something was wrong again.
Why does he look like he is running away?
Thinking of this, he lifted his robe, strode into the house, and sat down on the chair openly.
As soon as he sat down, the Fourth Master couldn't help but want to get up. What a shabby chair! It didn't even have a heating pad. It was very cold!
Looking around, the Fourth Master's brows furrowed even more tightly.
What the hell is this place?
It's empty, not as good as his Gongfang.
Also, what's the point of hanging his portrait?
Looking closely, there are water stains on the portrait.
Looking at the woman's face stained with some ink, what else could the Fourth Master not understand?
She is crying while holding his portrait.
For some reason, the Fourth Master felt even more restless.
"Your servant greets you, my Lord. May you be blessed with good fortune."
The Fourth Master looked down and saw tears on her long eyelashes and a red nose. She was looking at him eagerly, with a pitiful look as if she was afraid of being abandoned.
"How dare you!" His expression suddenly became stern.
"Wen Jiu, do you admit your guilt?"
Wenjiu blinked twice: "...What crime?"
In Wenjiu's memory, this man was someone who could even harm his own father and mother.
She also took a risky move today.
The more ruthless a person seems, the more likely he or she is to attach great importance to emotions.
It was a big gamble. If she won, a happy life might be waiting for her. If she lost, the worst that could happen was that she would die again.
Treating the Fourth Master with the attitude of a top customer, Wen Jiu carefully looked at his expression.
The man pursed his lips and narrowed his eyes, looking like he was in a bad mood.
Wen Jiu only felt his neck getting cold again...
The Fourth Master tapped his slender fingers twice on the red pearwood table and ordered, "All of you get out."
Su Peisheng and Shanzha retreated from the house, looking back every few steps.
Wenjiu knelt down obediently and was extremely honest.
"Who gave you such courage?" The Fourth Master adjusted his sitting position and said, "You serve me and yet you harbor evil intentions towards me!"
A bondservant of the first generation still aspires to be my wife. How audacious!
The Fourth Master's voice grew colder, his sharp eyes darting at Wenjiu like blades: "Wenjiu, tell me, should I reward you with a glass of poisoned wine now?"
This woman has a rebellious heart. I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse to keep her around.
"Master, I know I was wrong." Wen Jiu said softly, "But Jiu'er can't change..."
"presumptuous!"
The Fourth Master grabbed Wenjiu's delicate neck and said, "Do you think I won't kill you?"
A fierce look flashed across the Fourth Master's eyes.
Wen Jiu is like a kitten being grabbed by the neck, it can't be more obedient.
She really wanted to say, how could you not dare?
I've been crushed to death several times.
However, human hearts still need to be challenged.
Despite her fear, she still looked up into his eyes and said stubbornly, "Of course I dare to do it, but I, your servant, cannot do it."
"Okay, very good!" The Fourth Master slowly tightened his fingers: "Since you are not afraid of death, I will grant you your wish!"
"Kill me, kill me!" Wen Jiu's eyes were filled with tears, but he managed to hold them back: "Even if you kill me, I can't do it!"
"...Who made me handsome, elegant, and suave..."
"With such a dignified and upright man like you by my side, how could I not be tempted by wine?"
"Since you don't want Jiu'er to miss you, why do you come to provoke her?"
The Fourth Master was filled with anger like a balloon with a hole in it, and he subconsciously loosened his hand.
He coughed lightly, picked up the tea beside him and took a sip, his brows furrowed even more. Why does this tea taste like meat?
Wenjiu knelt limply on the ground, tears streaming down her face. She didn't even wipe them away, but took two steps on her knees and gently laid on the Fourth Master's knees: "Master, there's nothing to be afraid of with wine.
Rather than being tortured by illness, it’s better to have a glass of wine from me.
I am willing to die in your hands..."
The Fourth Master stared blankly at the face lying on his knees. The dark blue court dress made her cheeks look even whiter. The little face was not even as big as his palm, and her neck was so fragile that it seemed like it would break with a pinch.
Her collar had loosened a bit as she was being pulled, and from this angle, a mysterious ravine could be vaguely seen...
Just as he was in a daze, he felt hot tears seeping through his robe and into his knees, which burned the Fourth Master so much that he stood up suddenly.
"presumptuous!"
Meeting that pair of moist, clear eyes, the Fourth Master didn't say a word clearly, but flicked his sleeves and rushed out.
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw the figure, who was about 1.9 meters tall, running away in panic. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
Wenjiu slumped in the chair, feeling relieved that he would not have to die.
This Fourth Master is so scary that getting along with him is like crossing a single-plank bridge.
If she hadn't learned the art of deception since she was a child, she really wouldn't be able to deal with it.
My grandfather also has a side job, he is a fortune teller.
When she was young, she was often taken to the underside of the overpass to tell people's fortunes.
In my grandfather's words, I have inherited all his true skills.
In those days, they could earn about a hundred yuan from fortune-telling, and my grandfather would go to the nearby vegetable market to buy some fish and meat for Wenjiu to have a big meal.
Sure enough, no matter where, grandpa’s methods can always be used.
Let's just avoid this matter for now. When I find an opportunity to run away from home in the future, there is still hope of living the life I want.
Outside.
Su Peisheng and Shanzha were also confused.
Shanzha said, "The one who just passed by, was that Prince Beile?"
Su Peisheng nodded: "Yes, why did Lord Beile run away?"
"I don't know." Shanzha asked again, "But don't you want to serve Lord Beile?"
Su Peisheng nodded seriously: "Yes, you have to serve me."
!!!
Su Peisheng slapped his thigh and immediately ran after him:
"Lord Beile, please slow down, be careful not to fall!"
Looking at Su Peisheng who disappeared in a flash, Shanzha blinked and walked into the house with a look of surprise on his face.
Wenjiu slumped in the chair, holding the half-eaten chicken leg in her hand. Seeing Shanzha, she pointed to the teacup on the table and said, "Be good, change a glass of water for me. The chicken leg is so greasy."
Shanzha looked at his sister's mouth full of oil, and silently picked up the teacup to change the water.
He looks like he can eat and drink, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with him, right?
But, is it really okay to deceive the master like this?
For some unknown reason, Shanzha's heart was hanging again and he couldn't let it go for a long time.
