Chapter 237 Confused Thirteen
Buyu shook his head slightly: "I can't see clearly what's inside, it looks quite heavy. It's similar to what he gave me last time."
The Fourth Master frowned slightly. He didn't know what was going on with Doctor Liu. He sent things to the Emperor every few days, which was very strange and mysterious.
Could it be that the Emperor had some special task for him?
The Fourth Master didn't really care and just said, "Let him be."
After stretching his shoulders, the Fourth Master tilted his head and said, "Serve the meal."
Su Peisheng responded, bent over, and went out to give orders.
The Fourth Master soon sat down steadily at the dining table. He looked around and suddenly wondered, "Why is it so quiet today?"
When Su Peisheng heard this, he immediately knew what the Fourth Master was asking, and said, "Master, the young lady got up late and didn't go to the kitchen today."
The fourth master glanced at the food on the table. It wasn't bad, just average. Thinking of yesterday's events, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he picked up his chopsticks.
Su Peisheng added, "Our Ninth Master and Tenth Master went to the kitchen earlier to ask, and knowing that the young lady had not gone to the kitchen, they did not come to eat with us. Just now, when I went to get the food, I saw Thirteenth Master and Ninth Master, who seemed to be running to the back..."
"Hmm? What did they do?"
There is only Jiuer staying at the back, what are they two doing?
Su Peisheng shook his head: "I don't know either, but I want to ask."
The Fourth Master frowned, then suddenly put down his chopsticks, stood up and said, "I've eaten too much. I'll go help digest it."
Su Peisheng stared blankly at the food he hadn't touched...
What did the master eat too much of?
…
Let’s go back in time for a little while.
When the Thirteenth Master hurried to the wine warmer, he bumped into the Ninth Master head-on.
"Thirteen, why are you so anxious?"
Thirteen paused and panted twice, "Nineth Brother, I nearly fell off my horse yesterday, and now I want to go and thank Miss Wen. I didn't expect to get up so late. It's really rude."
Thirteen was also quite annoyed. He had slept well for the first time in a long time, and the servants hadn't woken him. When he woke up, it was already noon. He hurried out the door, wanting to deliver the gift to Wenjiu before lunch.
Jiu Ye listened and said indifferently: "It's not too late."
Thirteen was surprised: "It's already noon..."
Jiu Ye glanced at the sun and nodded seriously, saying, "Little Fourth Sister-in-law usually wakes up around this time. If she had woken up earlier, we might have something fresh for lunch. Your Tenth Brother went to ask this morning, and he said she woke up very late, so there's no hope for lunch."
Thirteen choked, glancing at his Ninth Brother's charmingly handsome face, and couldn't help but twitch his lips. Was this his once-arrogant Ninth Brother? He was actually going with his Tenth Brother to check on someone else's sleep?
I couldn't help but think of Wenjiu's beautiful face and her bad temper.
I feel that sleeping in is both unexpected and reasonable.
Jiu Ye suddenly became interested. "By the way, Little Thirteen, how did Little Fourth Sister-in-law save you? She was so tiny, not much taller than you. How could she have caught you when you fell off your horse?"
Thirteen was also puzzled. He hadn't had time to think deeply about it yesterday, but after hearing it today, he realized something was amiss: "Ninth Brother, doesn't that Miss Wen have any martial arts skills?"
Jiu Ye nodded: "Of course not." Then he laughed: "Thirteen, you really don't know her? She used to be Fourth Brother's personal maid, and she has been with Fourth Brother for ten years."
Thirteen couldn't remember the personal maidservant who was beside his fourth brother in his previous life no matter how hard he tried.
I remember clearly that there was one called Moxiang, but I don't remember one called Wenjiu.
Not only did the girls have no impression of him, but even in Fourth Brother's backyard, there was definitely no such person.
Now that I think about it, the most favored one in the previous life was the daughter of the Nian family, and she hasn’t even entered Fourth Brother’s backyard yet.
Thinking of Wenjiu's appearance, if he was really from Fourth Brother's backyard, he would definitely have an impression of him.
Thinking of this, I wanted to get to know this woman even more.
Thirteen and Master Jiu soon arrived at Wenjiu, but were stopped by Dashao at the door.
Thirteen was a bit confused. Was this a guard or a eunuch? He looked rather unintelligent. Shouldn't he have invited them to the courtyard, then gone in and called for them? Why would he have brought them outside the gate?
"Please wait a moment, my lady is in the room. I will go and tell her."
Thirteenth Master watched, his pupils shrinking sharply: "He...he went straight in?"
Jiu Ye was used to it and even comforted him: "Calm down, calm down. This person looks like a man, but she is actually a woman."
Thirteen: "Ah?"
He was ignorant. How could a woman be so tall? Thinking about it carefully, she really didn't shave her head...
Jiu Ye, who was standing next to him, had no thoughts on this at all. He just rubbed his hands and said, "What are we having for dinner? The big pelvic bones were good yesterday, and the spicy hot pot was also good, but I'm still craving hot pot. And the chicken feet that Xiao Si's wife roasted last time were also delicious.
Yes, yes, and there are rabbit legs, I don’t know if they will make them for me today…”
Thirteen glanced at the chattering Ninth Brother, and for a moment he didn't know what expression to put on his face.
So, what was wrong? Why were his brothers now completely different?
About a quarter of an hour later, a woman dressed in black emerged. Her hair was tied up high with a single red string. A thin layer of sweat still clung to her forehead as she sprinted towards them.
Behind her, there were one black and one white.
A huge black dog, and a...little fox!?
When she got closer, Thirteen was even more confused. Could this big black dog wagging its tail behind her be her fourth brother's ferocious Wangcai?
It’s over, and I feel like my brain is not enough.
"Good luck to the Ninth Master, good luck to the Thirteenth Master." Wen Jiu bowed to the two of them.
"Why are you being so polite, Sister-in-law Si? You look very nice in your outfit today." Master Jiu was also stunned when he saw it and couldn't help but praise her.
After hearing this, Wenjiu belatedly looked at her own attire.
I was afraid of being impolite, so I brought the two little ones out without changing my clothes.
"This set of clothes has won the praise of Master Jiu, it seems that I really made the right choice." Wen Jiu replied with a smile.
Jiu Ye was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Little Fourth Sister-in-law looks very impressive in this outfit. Do you want to take a stroll in the martial arts arena?"
When Wen Jiu heard this, he immediately became timid and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I can't do this! I'm good at fancy moves, eating, drinking and having fun, but I'm not good at anything else. I can't compare with you gentlemen."
Thirteen looked at the two of them chatting casually back and forth, and was confused again.
