Chapter 160 Her Master is So Beautiful
The fourth master paused, and finally sat back on the bed. The room was too hot and stuffy, so he unbuttoned two buttons to let in some air.
The low-quality black charcoal was crackling and the smell in the room was not very pleasant. The Fourth Master frowned and stood up, wanting to move the charcoal fire farther away, but then he remembered that his robe was still in his hand while he was warming the wine.
His handsome sword-like brows were furrowed, and after much hesitation, he reached out and tentatively pulled his robe out.
She was sleeping soundly, and at some point she turned sideways, with her legs tucked under the quilt and her head resting on her robe.
The Fourth Master wanted to pull at his robe, but for some reason his hand inexplicably covered those pale red lips. The soft touch brought the Fourth Master back to his senses. He suddenly froze and shouted outside in annoyance, "Su Peisheng, go and look after Third Brother and the others."
At the door, Su Peisheng and Dashao stood there staring at each other. Miss Wen, the new maid, was really different from others.
When others saw him, they would always greet him, calling him brother or grandpa, always in a flattering manner.
But the new maid kept staring at him, and there was even a hint of wariness in her eyes.
Su Peisheng felt quite uncomfortable, thinking that his master would come out soon. But he did not expect to receive such an order.
To be honest, it wasn't too surprising. He immediately responded with a "Yeah." Then he crouched down, tucked in his sleeves, and walked away, looking like he was running away.
Dashao didn't know that she had scared the person in charge of the Fourth Master.
Now she was the only one left at the door. She stared at the door nervously for a while, then suddenly scratched her head and turned around twice on the ground.
Dashao was also conflicted. Before she became a slave, her elder brother taught her some tricks. He said that the most important thing to be a good slave was to keep pace.
When the master is happy, you should laugh along with him; when the master is sad, you should cry along with him. But is the master happy or sad now?
Besides, the Fourth Master is her master’s master, so is he her master?
After thinking for a long time, Dashao still couldn't figure it out. He shook his head to expel these messy thoughts from his head, and suddenly he grinned again.
Today is really the luckiest day for her. She has a new master, drinks sweet honey water, eats her fill, and wears beautiful new clothes.
And, her mistress was so beautiful! She spoke so softly and tenderly. It was the first time she had ever seen such a beautiful person, and she didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear of scaring her.
No wonder so many people around her are nice to her, just like that fierce Fourth Master, he can't bear to be mean to her master, right?
While eating, she saw the fierce Fourth Master feeding his master, and she felt relieved.
She couldn't help grinning again when she remembered what her master said about having chicken legs to eat often in the future.
When Su Peisheng returned from the main hall, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
The Third Master and his companions were drunk, chatting about all sorts of things and making irrelevant remarks. Although the Fourth Master didn't come over, they still drank for an hour.
When they were helped out of the house, they couldn't tell who was who. The Third Master finally patted Bu Yan's shoulder and said, "Fourth brother, come to your brother's house for dinner some other day."
After watching the gentlemen return safely to their respective rooms, Su Peisheng returned with peace of mind.
On a deep winter night, the north wind howled, and the hands holding the lantern were frozen, and even his eyelashes were covered with a layer of frost. Su Peisheng sniffed and walked faster.
What a horrible weather! It’s snowing again.
I returned to the door of the compartment without stopping, and saw Dashao standing in the snow with a smile on his face.
Su Peisheng was so frightened that he almost fainted. After a long while, he said, "Miss... why are you standing here?" He still couldn't help but be curious.
"I'm here to guard the master." Dashao replied seriously.
Su Peisheng: "...It's snowing, aren't you going to the porch?"
Dashao blinked twice: "Is it okay?"
The corner of Su Peisheng's mouth twitched: "Of course you can."
"Oh." Dashao responded, shook off the snow on his body, and immediately ran to the corridor. He sniffed and continued to stare at the door.
Su Peisheng couldn't help but say, "Master, please don't summon me at night. You can go back to your residence and rest."
Dashao continued blinking: "Is it okay?"
Su Peisheng: “…Okay.”
After hearing this, Dashao suddenly reached out and patted Su Peisheng on the shoulder: "You are a good person."
Having said that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Su Peisheng: “…”
As the eunuch beside the master, this was the first time he was praised by the little girl in the backyard...
But strangely, Su Peisheng didn't feel angry at all. Perhaps it was because the man in front of him was too straightforward and direct, which made Su Peisheng feel that he was really a good person.
After a moment of distraction, Su Peisheng stopped Dashao as she was about to leave: "Wait, did the master just call for water?"
Dashao shook his head: "No, I didn't give any instructions."
Su Peisheng waved his hand at her after hearing this and said, "Go and have a rest."
I looked into the room puzzled.
The lights in the room were off. Could it be that the master had really gone to bed?
He had asked the eunuchs in the kitchen to boil some water earlier, but he didn't expect that no water was ordered today.
Since he hadn't ordered water, given his master's temperament, he wouldn't have left the drunken masters outside unattended. But why didn't he come out? Could it be that his master was drunk too?
Come to think of it, the master has been very tired these days, so it would be good for him to rest early.
The girl's red wine has a strong aftereffect, so the master will definitely have a good sleep today. Su Peisheng did not stand guard at the door, but found a small room nearby to rest.
The Fourth Master did not sleep as well as expected. The next morning, he woke up with dark circles under his eyes and a dull face, and the words "I am very unhappy" were almost written on his face.
Su Peisheng was puzzled and served more carefully, but he couldn't help but glance towards the bed.
The girl was silent now, but seeing how quietly her master moved, she knew that she must be asleep.
Could it be because of the girl?
According to the rules, once the master wakes up, the servant must not sleep anymore and should get up to help the master wash and dress.
However, he had not done this since the day he beat the girl to sleep with him. Normally, the master never scolded the girl, so could he be angry because of this?
Su Peisheng felt a little uneasy in his heart and was worried about Wenjiu. He wanted to call someone to remind her and let her get up to comfort the master.
However, until the master left the house, there was no movement inside.
He had a hangover yesterday and it was not a good idea to take advantage of someone who was in trouble, so the Fourth Master stayed up most of the night.
I didn't have much appetite when I woke up in the morning, so I rushed to the yamen.
