Chapter 386: Don’t meddle in matters between women.
Wen Jiu raised his eyebrows: "Does Fu Jin know about this?"
Nanny Song said, "Fu Jin didn't say anything. But I think she couldn't hide it. After Fu Jin returned from the palace yesterday, she asked someone to invite Prince Beile, but Prince Beile didn't come. I heard that Princess Liu has been in confinement, and Fu Jin only allowed her out today."
"Just released?" Wen Jiu asked again, "Where's your food? Did Liu steal your food too?"
When Wenjiu asked this, Dashao clenched his fists and said, "I don't know what's wrong with this Liu Gege. Is she a starving ghost who has been reborn? When Xiaodouzi went to get food this morning, she had her people snatch the food from his hands.
They also said that the person living in Qingliang Pavilion was just a concubine and didn't need so much food. Xiaodouzi was pushed by them and now his hand is still broken.
Wenjiu turned sideways and looked at Xiaodouzi: "Douzi, come here."
Xiaodouzi walked over to the wine-warming table and knelt down with a plop. "My lady, it's my fault that I was incompetent and let someone steal the food, making you lose face. My lady..."
"Open your hands, let me see your wound." Wen Jiu said.
Xiao Douzi was stunned when he heard this. Seeing that the girl was only concerned about his own health, his nose felt a little sour, but he smiled and said, "Miss, I'm fine."
Wenjiu looked at Xiaodouzi's hand. There were several cuts on the child's thin palm, and the wounds were bloody. There was also a large bruise on the back of his hand. It was obvious that he did not fall, but was stepped on by someone.
"Who did it? Liu?"
Ever since she came to him, Xiaodouzi seemed to have had a rough time. Her injuries had just healed a little, but now she was bruised all over again. Why was she, the one who warmed the wine, so easy to bully?
"Miss, it's my fault that I'm incompetent..."
"If you dare say you're incompetent again, I'll throw you out, believe it or not?" Wen Jiu suddenly frowned. "Are you stupid? After being bullied, wouldn't you come back and complain? Is it because Liu's status is too high that I can't lift the knife for your girl anymore?"
These words made everyone around stunned for a moment.
"Girl, you must not use a knife..." Xiaodouzi was confused. He blinked several times and squeezed out these words.
In theory, this Liu Gege is even inferior to Song Gege. The girl saved herself from Song Gege by her own efforts.
Why should he be afraid of a Liu Gege? Even if the concubine came to their courtyard to cause trouble, wasn't she also turned away by the girl?
Girls are willing to take action for him. He is just a slave with a worthless life. What is there to be afraid of?
He used to think that since the girl's status was lower, he couldn't cause her any trouble. However, he didn't realize that if others thought they were easy to bully, it would only lead to more trouble.
"Miss, please don't use the knife. I will never be bullied again." Xiaodouzi vowed.
The others behind him also urged Wen Jiu: "Yes, girl, but you can't use a knife."
Warming wine: "......"
"What's the matter with the knife?" As he was speaking, he saw the Fourth Master lift the curtain and walk quickly into the room.
Today's work at the Ministry of Revenue wasn't too busy, and after yesterday's beating, the younger brothers were unusually well behaved. The Fourth Master, for once, returned before noon.
Seeing Wenjiu eating, the Fourth Master didn't dislike her. He took the remaining half bowl of porridge and drank it all in one gulp. Then he frowned and said, "It doesn't taste very good."
Wen Jiu glanced at the half bowl of porridge he had saved by scraping together, and saw that it was gone. He immediately pursed his lips and said, "Master, that was my last half bowl of porridge. I'm not full yet."
The Fourth Master paused and subconsciously looked at the table, only to find that it was full of empty plates.
He suddenly smiled, and embraced Wenjiu's slender waist, one hand on her lower abdomen: "My son is really amazing, he eats more than others."
As soon as he hugged the warm wine, the Fourth Master was stunned.
When he practiced boxing this morning, he felt that the weapon seemed sharper, making it increasingly difficult to control, and sometimes even felt extremely heavy. After getting close to Jiu'er, he immediately felt the abundant power within the bracelet, and the bracelet even trembled slightly with excitement.
Warming the wine: "..."
"Master, I'm not full."
It’s better to be simple and clear when dealing with this straight man.
The Fourth Master nodded after hearing this and said, "Then continue eating. How can I possibly miss out on your food? Su Peisheng, go get some more of what the young lady likes to eat."
Then he asked Wen Jiu, "What do you want to eat? Do you want the beef with lantern shadow from last time? And the peony fish fillet. I remember you enjoyed it last time too."
Wenjiu nodded with a strange look on his face.
The Fourth Master was in a good mood and directly let Su Peisheng give his orders. He, on the other hand, played with the hand holding the warm wine repeatedly.
Wen Jiu glanced at the indifferent Fourth Master and couldn't help asking, "Master, don't you want to know why I'm not full? Don't you want to know why the kitchen doesn't send more food?"
The Fourth Master was stunned. "Huh? The kitchen? Are you being wronged?"
Wen Jiu nodded directly: "Yeah, I've been wronged."
He added, "I didn't eat enough today because Liu took away my food early in the morning. She also took away the food of those around me."
The Fourth Master looked at the wine being warmed for a long time, then suddenly asked, "Who is Liu?"
Warming the wine: "..."
Seeing Wen Jiu was silent, the Fourth Master suddenly frowned: "Is this Liu from the kitchen? I'll have someone sell her out later."
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Nanny Song looked at the situation and turned around to see that Eunuch Su had not returned yet. She stepped forward and replied, "To answer Prince, the young lady is talking about Princess Liu..."
Nanny Song winked at Wenjiu fiercely. Why did the girl complain at this moment?
Even if the prince is on the girl's side, men hate such dirty things the most, especially these trivial matters.
After all, Liu Gege's status is higher than that of the girl. If the prince knows her status, he may not necessarily stand on their side.
Wenjiu pretended not to hear or see anything, and just looked at the Fourth Master's reaction.
After hearing what he said, the Fourth Master carefully looked at the wine warmer for a while, then suddenly asked, "Jiu'er, what do you think we should do?"
The Fourth Master was not unaware of the filthiness of the backyard, but he subconsciously did not connect the little girl in front of him with the woman in the backyard.
I was thinking of the concubines and the concubines. These were the tricks they usually used. I hoped he would severely punish the person who made the mistake.
"Master, I think it's best to fight tooth for tooth." Wenjiu pulled Xiaodouzi's hand again to show the Fourth Master: "Master, look, she even stepped on my hand. Our feud is over."
After hearing this, the Fourth Master felt a sense of loss in his heart for some reason. He didn't know what he was feeling lost about, so he turned to look at Wen Jiu and said, "I'll punish her by grounding her. How about you step on her?"
After all, she is still pregnant, so she can't get angry.
"That won't do," Wen Jiu refused directly: "Don't get involved in matters between women. Just say hello to me first, and I will fight back tomorrow."
Fourth Master: “…?”
