Chapter 281 Miss, please have mercy on me.
Sure enough, before I could put on my shoes, the Fourth Master grabbed my wrist.
"Master?" Wenjiu blinked and looked at him.
The Fourth Master pursed his lips and said nothing, but his hand was still holding the hand that was warming the wine, and he never let go.
She let him hold Wenjiu, and after thinking for a moment, she found a comfortable position and lay down.
With his arms and legs spread out, the whole thing formed a big character shape.
Speaking of which, the beds in ancient times were really big. Even so, there was still a lot of space.
"It's so comfortable. Do you want to try lying down like me?"
The Fourth Master didn't turn around, but looked to the other side, but his hand was behind his back, pulling her wrist.
Wen Jiudu felt awkward for him and poked him: "Master, give it a try."
The Fourth Master couldn't help but glance at Wen Jiu, then frowned: "Would I be as unruly as you?"
Wen Jiu said, "Oh, it's really comfortable. It's a pity that I can't enjoy it..."
A quarter of an hour later, the Fourth Master frowned deeply.
"I don't think this posture is any different."
The Fourth Master lay in a big letter shape, his whole body stiff, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
Wen Jiu patted his strong arms: "Relax, sir, relax... Take a deep breath, and feel your body sinking slowly towards the bed...
Breathe in… Breathe out…
Come, slow down your breathing..."
The sound of warming the wine was soft and slow. When the Fourth Master heard her gentle voice, he yawned inexplicably.
The Fourth Master had just returned from Jinyang, and the tense situation finally relaxed a little.
Speaking of which, the Qingliang Pavilion was shabby and could not compare to the exquisite, gorgeous, and spotless courtyard of the concubine's wife. But it was precisely because of the casualness of the Qingliang Pavilion that the Fourth Master unconsciously relaxed and even felt a little drowsy for a while.
After warming the wine and reciting some yoga relaxation techniques, the Fourth Master's breathing gradually became steady, and soon he even began to snore lightly.
The Fourth Master must be exhausted these days. Wen Jiu helped him cover himself with the quilt before getting up.
Just as I went out, I ran into Li Jinzhong who was in charge of the warehouse in the front yard.
Li Jinzhong saw Wen Jiu and immediately trotted forward and saluted: "Oh, young lady, it's been a long time since we last met. You look even more beautiful than before."
He warmed the wine and said indifferently, "What brings you here, eunuch?"
The people in the mansion were used to judging people's expressions. The Fourth Master had just come to her Qingliang Pavilion, and the storehouse manager had someone bring a basket. What else could it be? It was just to deliver something.
Li Jinzhong seemed unconcerned with Wen Jiu's cold attitude and said cheerfully, "Miss, since you haven't been home these days, I've kept all your things for you and will hand them over to you personally when you return."
Having said this, he immediately waved to the eunuch behind him. When they came closer, Li Jinzhong said with a smile: "Miss, this is cotton for winter use. There is also the best silver charcoal, plenty of it.
I also have some sweet-scented osmanthus hair oil, which smells very pleasant. I have specially reserved some for you, young lady." His face was full of smiles.
"Thank you for your hard work, father-in-law," Wen Jiu said with a smile, "Hawthorn, take it."
After hearing this, Li Jinzhong immediately wanted to hand the tray to Shanzha.
"Wait a minute," Wenjiu suddenly patted his head, "Look at me, I actually forgot that Shanzha got some frostbite on his hands during my absence, but he can't be a servant like this."
Wen Jiu glanced at Li Jinzhong meaningfully, then turned and said lightly, "Big spoon, take it."
Dashao heard the order and went straight forward to take the tray.
Li Jinzhong met Wenjiu's gaze, but beads of sweat began to form on his forehead.
This Miss Wen just went out with her master, why is she so imposing?
I didn't even dare to look her in the eye!
Looking around at the women in the backyard, this is the only one with such majesty.
Li Jinzhong actually couldn't figure it out in his mind. He had thought this trip would be very smooth.
After all, he worked in the warehouse in the front yard, so even the wife and the concubine would not offend him.
He met his wife yesterday, and she was talking to him with a smile.
How could she be like this Concubine Wen? She didn't give him any face at all?
But Li Jinzhong didn't dare show any dissatisfaction, and immediately smiled and said, "I don't know who it is, but it is Miss Shanzha who is making trouble for her. I have some excellent ointment here, can you bring some to Miss Shanzha later?"
Wen Jiu smiled when he heard this: "Then I have to thank Eunuch Li. The prince also mentioned that when he went out, he asked you to look after my Qingliang Pavilion. These days, I am really grateful to you for taking care of me."
Of course, these words were not said by the Fourth Master. Wen Jiu was chatting with Su Peisheng and heard Su Peisheng say this.
At that time, Wenjiu was still relieved, but he didn't expect that he almost lost all the people he took care of.
Li Jinzhong is the warehouse manager and the second-in-command of the front yard. If he really wanted to take care of it, how could Shanzha's life become like this?
He didn't even take the master's words to heart. This eunuch Li is really smart.
Li Jinzhong turned pale upon hearing this. He looked towards Wenjiu and saw that her pretty face was no longer smiling, and her eyes were looking at him indifferently.
The appearance of Wenjiu has reached the intermediate level and can now be described as stunning.
Normally, when she smiled, she looked charming, but now her face was cold and it felt like the air had dropped several degrees.
Li Jinzhong's legs went weak and he fell to his knees with a thud: "Miss, please have mercy on me."
Li Jinzhong also understood that he could no longer make excuses. If Miss Wen's words were to reach his master's ears, he would no longer have a job as the warehouse manager!
Wen Jiu said, "What are you doing, eunuch? I'm just thanking you."
Having said that, she didn't move at all, nor did she ask Li Jinzhong to get up.
Li Jinzhong quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a bitter face, "Miss, this servant... this servant is really too busy to handle everything. How can this servant have the final say in this mansion? This servant also has his own unspeakable secrets. Miss Shanzha, it is not a bad thing for her to live a hard life."
"Oh, that's a good thing then?"
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I will definitely compensate Miss Shanzha later. Please forgive me."
Wen Jiu's eyes flickered after hearing this, and he suddenly laughed: "Hurry up, why are you kneeling on the ground in such a cold weather? It was just a joke, and you took it seriously."
Li Jinzhong saw the smile on Wenjiu's face, but he still felt uneasy.
After hesitating for a long time, he suddenly moved closer and said in a low voice, "Miss, if you have time, you can go to Lianhuaju to take a look..."
"Lianhuaju?" Wenjiu was a little confused, because that was Song Gege's place.
"I went to Lianhuaju earlier and heard something. I'm afraid that Xiaodouzi is not feeling well." This girl cares so much about the people around her, so he might as well do her a favor.
