Chapter 310 Whose yard are we staying in?
Everyone at the table turned their attention to Wen Jiu.
At this moment, Wenjiu really wanted to get up and run away. Even the Dengying Beef in front of him didn't smell good anymore.
As luck would have it, the Fourth Master saw that Wenjiu hadn't eaten it, so he kindly added another piece and fed it to Wenjiu's mouth.
"Eat it."
The Fourth Master now has some knowledge of food. It is extremely troublesome to make this Dengying Beef, and it takes at least three or four days.
The meals for Fu Jin had been prepared a few days earlier. Dishes like the Phoenix Clothes and Peony Fish Fillet required a lot of effort.
It wouldn't be difficult for him to ask the kitchen to prepare a table for Jiu'er, but he would have to wait for a while before he could eat. It would be better to satisfy his craving here first.
Wenjiu endured the pressure of being watched by everyone, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, opened his mouth and swallowed the Dengying Beef.
After chewing it fiercely for two times, his eyes suddenly lit up. Hey, this tastes really good.
She decided to just give up. No matter what she did today, someone would be watching her. She might as well enjoy her meal.
Logically speaking, Wen Jiu's current status meant he couldn't sit at the table. Being able to stand by and serve was already good enough.
The Fourth Master didn't care about these things. He just pulled her to sit next to him, just like they usually did when they had meals.
It was against the rules, but no one in the room dared to say a word.
What are the rules? The Prince is the rule. Now that the Prince is happy, all the rules must be put aside.
The Fourth Master watched her drink the warm wine and nodded in a good mood. He thought to himself that the little girl was really pampered and would not eat unless he fed her a mouthful.
Thinking of this, he picked up another piece of peony fish fillet and brought it to his lips while warming the wine.
He drank the warm wine with his eyes closed, his head buried in the plate, not even looking at the expressions of others.
In fact, she didn't even need to watch, she only needed to listen to the hateful report to know that she had become the target of public criticism.
But it doesn't matter.
For the sake of his life, Wen Jiu would never let the Fourth Master go to someone else's yard. It was only a matter of time before he became hated by others.
Besides, there are still four babies in my belly. Although they haven't been born yet, if they are not feared by others when they are born, then it will be a miracle. I am afraid that I will never be able to live in peace with these women in the backyard in this life.
The Fourth Master looked at her eating with her cheeks bulging, and for some reason he felt that the dish seemed to taste good.
I picked up the chopsticks and picked up some food myself, wanting to put it in my mouth.
Fu Jin glanced at the chopsticks that the Fourth Master used to feed him warm wine with a gloomy look in her eyes. If she remembered correctly, the Fourth Master used them without rinsing them.
She couldn't help but clench her fists, and it took a while before she relaxed. Favoring Wen Jiu was better than favoring Li Shi.
After figuring this out, Fu Jin immediately smiled and said, "I will serve Lord Beile at his meal."
As usual, Ulanara stood on the left side of the Fourth Master, rolled up her sleeves, and wanted to help the Fourth Master serve the food.
The other two newlyweds were startled when they saw Fu Jin stand up, and they immediately stood up as well. Yin and the other two were a little confused about the situation and carefully looked at the others' expressions.
Wen Jiucai picked up a piece of shrimp with chopsticks and was about to bring it to his mouth. When he looked up, he found that everyone except the Fourth Master and himself had stood up. For a moment, he didn't know whether he should put down his chopsticks.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally stuffed the food into his mouth, then put down his chopsticks and stood up. The next second, his wrist was grabbed by the Fourth Master.
"You eat yours."
The Fourth Master looked at Fu Jin again and said, "Fu Jin, please sit down and eat. You have worked hard looking after the mansion these days."
Fu Jin was stunned, but the smile on her face showed a sense of relief. She immediately responded, "Yes." and sat down next to the left of the Fourth Master.
"My Lord, you have been working very hard these days. I am not busy at home, but I am always worried about your health."
The Fourth Master nodded gently: "Well, now that I'm back, you can relax a little."
Ulanara looked up at the Fourth Master who was sitting next to her and couldn't help feeling happy.
This was the first time she had eaten at the same table with the Fourth Master in all the years she had lived in the mansion.
And he can even talk about everyday things in such a nice way.
In the past, at every family dinner, that bitch Li would always squeeze into the middle. Before he could even say a few words to the Fourth Master, his mind would be distracted by that bitch.
Speaking of today, she was really happy. It happened to be the first family dinner after the new bride entered the mansion, and the Fourth Master was helping her to gain face.
The corners of her lips curled up, and she immediately raised her wine glass: "Lord Beile, I offer you a toast. I wish you all the best and a continuous promotion."
The Fourth Master put down the chopsticks he had just picked up. In the end, he did not offend Ulanara and raised his wine glass to clink with hers.
Wenjiu heard the system announcement immediately.
[Ding, detection of contact between the Fourth Master and his competitor, health -10, 586 days remaining.]
[Ding, the distance between the Fourth Master and his competitor is less than 50 centimeters. Health -10, 576 days remaining.]
[Master! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Your health has been reduced again!]
The chopsticks holding the shrimp at Wen Restaurant didn't even shake as he slowly brought the meat to his mouth.
They're a couple, just clinking glasses. Calm down.
Xiao Jin couldn't remain calm. If the Master had just 500 days of health, it would have been enough to last a while, but now there were five of them! The health points would start being deducted tomorrow! How could he remain calm?
It flapped its little wings and flew back and forth over the Fourth Master's head, its eyes wide open, staring intently at Ulanara's hand.
Wenjiu continued to pretend to be a quail, eating whatever he liked.
The Fourth Master was actually a little envious of Wen Jiu at this moment. Look at him, he could just sit next to him and eat whatever he wanted, drink whatever he wanted, without having to socialize at all.
But I had to listen to Ulanara's words about getting promoted step by step.
By the way, does this feel like being at home? The Fourth Master was in a trance, and it seemed as if he had returned to the time when he was handling official business with his colleagues.
After enduring for a long time, the Fourth Master finally said, "Please use more, Fu Jin. This soup tastes good."
The soup is a bit hot, so it might be hard to drink.
Ulanara responded with a smile on her face that became even more pronounced. It seemed that the prince had not seen her for many days, and now he was becoming more considerate.
She glanced at the Fourth Master again, suppressed her joy, and said respectfully, "Your Highness has just returned, and you haven't met your sisters yet, right? These two were sent to the mansion a few days ago. Look, this one is Yin, and that one is Niuhulu. They are both well-behaved children."
The chopsticks that the Fourth Master had just used to pick up the fish slices paused again and he exhaled. He finally looked up and saw that the man had a straight face and was well behaved. He didn't look like someone who was meddlesome, so he should be relieved.
"Well, not bad." After saying this, there was no more to say.
When Ulanara saw that the Fourth Master seemed to have no interest, she felt very complicated. Since her husband didn't like new people, she should actually be happy.
However, with the Li family still eyeing them covetously, he couldn't relax. Speaking of which, Yin and Niu Hulu were also disappointing. They hadn't even let the Fourth Master take a second look!
Among the newcomers, only Liu is pretty, but she is also stupid.
She took a deep breath and finally said, "In the past, when Lord Beile returned home, he would always stay with me for a night. Lord Beile has been tired from the journey and finally returned. Why not stay with the newlyweds? My two younger sisters are both sensible and I think they can serve you better than I can."
After saying this, Ulanara herself felt uncomfortable.
But she is the legitimate wife. If she is not virtuous and generous, how can she manage the backyard?
Besides, most men are greedy for novelty, and she can't stop them even if she wants to, so it's better to do them a favor.
As soon as these words came out, Wenjiu lost his composure. He immediately put down his chopsticks and looked towards the Fourth Master, holding his breath nervously for a moment.
Although she was pregnant, her exclusive favor was still there. If the Fourth Master stayed somewhere else, her life would be over.
No, now it's not my life, it's one corpse and five lives! Including Xiao Jin, that's six lives!
The Fourth Master frowned slightly and glanced at the two newcomers who were looking at him with anticipation.
He glanced at the tolerant and generous Fu Jin again.
Then he glanced at the warm wine that was staring at him.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "Let's talk about it later."
It was only natural that a new bride should go there. Besides, since Fu Jin had said so, it would be difficult to deny her face. But Jiu Er looked at him eagerly, and the words of agreement on the tip of his tongue were swallowed back.
In fact, he didn't want to go anywhere, but wanted to stay in Qingliang Pavilion. After all, he still had to treat Jiu'er's illness.
Seeing that Fu Jin wanted to say something, the Fourth Master put down his chopsticks and said, "Hong Hui has gone to bed, right? I'll go check on him."
Fu Jin was startled, and her smile deepened. She said, "If you, Lord Beile, hadn't sent someone to tell me earlier, Honghui would have wanted to have dinner with you."
Fourth Master: "He's not feeling well. He needs to rest early. Don't let these red tapes affect his recovery."
Then, he stood up and wanted to walk to the side hall.
After taking two steps, he suddenly stopped: "Jiu'er, you come with me."
Wenjiu was actually hesitating whether to follow or not. At this time, he had to keep a close eye on the Fourth Master. If he relaxed and someone else took advantage of him, something big might happen.
This family dinner ended in failure.
The fourth master warmed his wine, and the three of them, including his wife, stood up. How could Yin and Niuhulu continue eating? They didn't even eat a single bite from the beginning to the end.
Yin was still standing at the door, eagerly looking inside, obviously not giving up yet.
Niuhulu glanced at her calmly, then turned to the maid beside her and said, "Let's go back."
Seeing Honghui's peaceful sleeping face, the Fourth Master couldn't help but smile. He asked Su Peisheng to drop off two large boxes of things, and then went out again with warm wine.
Ulanara still wanted to give up and asked, "My Lord Beile, whose courtyard are you going to stay in today?"
Seeing the Fourth Master hesitate, Ulanara continued, "I know that Master favors Sister Jiu'er. But we just returned home, and these newcomers are gifts from the Emperor, so Master has to give them some respect... I went there today to improve my reputation. If Master doesn't like them in the future, I won't go."
The Fourth Master frowned and thought for a moment, then finally said, "Just as Fu Jin said."
When Wenjiu heard this, he immediately pulled the Fourth Master's sleeve tightly.
The Fourth Master looked at her and touched her head: "I will go to accompany you tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wenjiu suddenly covered his head: "Ugh...headache!!!"
Then, she fell lightly onto the Fourth Master.
