Chapter 392: Fourth Master: Who is this person???
Wen Jiu suddenly stood up: "No, I have to go and take a look."
"Girl, please put on some clothes."
Shanzha immediately grabbed some clothes and chased after him.
As the Fourth Master went out, he was almost hit by a red figure. Fortunately, he dodged in time and only dropped some seeds.
"presumptuous!"
The Fourth Master scolded, immediately tightened his belt, and squatted down to pick it up.
Fortunately, there were not too many particles that fell and the ground was relatively flat. After a while, the Fourth Master picked them up and breathed a sigh of relief.
He then looked at the culprit with a gloomy face.
The Fourth Master was not a kind person by nature, and now he was angry. His appearance frightened Liu so much that she fell to her knees.
"Bei...Beile, may your majesty be blessed. I didn't mean it."
"What the hell? Drag it out and beat it to death." The Fourth Master stuffed the seed into his arms with lingering fear, said in a calm tone, turned around and left.
Behind him, Su Peisheng looked at Liu with sympathy.
Oh, ever since the girl climbed into bed and won the master's favor, the woman in the backyard has been coming here every now and then.
Just take this month for example, three maids serving in the front yard were dragged out and beaten to death.
How come, now this princess is also using this trick?
At that moment, he hesitated whether to warn his master. It would be fine if he beat the maid to death, but this was a princess awarded by the emperor, so Duan Ran couldn't beat her to death.
Liu had a shy look on her face, but after hearing what the Fourth Master said, her face was full of disbelief.
She rushed forward and knelt before the Fourth Master, "Lord Beile, I am Liu. I really didn't mean to do that just now. I just took Sister Wen's food by mistake and sent it back to her."
The Fourth Master was stopped in his tracks, and a hint of impatience appeared in his eyes. He stared closely at Liu's face, his brows furrowed. "Who is this?"
Su Peisheng immediately stepped forward and explained, "Master, this is Liu Gege. When you first returned home, you went to her yard to take a look."
Seeing that the Fourth Master was still frowning, obviously still not remembering, Su Peisheng lowered his voice and explained: "It's the man the girl said she wanted to punish."
The Fourth Master looked down as if suddenly realizing something: "So it was you who stole the wine and food. You're quite greedy."
Seeing that the Fourth Master had lost his aggressive demeanor, Liu Shi was relieved. After hearing this, she said with a hint of grievance, "Lord Beile, I am innocent. I accidentally took Sister Wen's food, and I feel guilty. That's why I came here to apologize to Sister Wen."
I am not really greedy. As a harem maid, I should be pure in heart, do good deeds, and curb greed. Greedy people never achieve great things.
I am not a greedy person myself, and I admire gentlemen who are strict with themselves."
As she spoke, her watery eyes stared at the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master is so upright and handsome, I think he is not a lustful person. Before entering the mansion, I heard that the Fourth Master is a very pure-hearted person and has the fewest women around him.
Presumably, the Fourth Master has always been extremely restrained, and her words would surely attract his attention.
In fact, the Fourth Master's face darkened even further. He looked at Su Peisheng beside him and said, "It's hard to achieve anything great. Who are you talking about?"
It would be fine if he had just snatched Jiu'er's food for no reason, but now he's finding new ways to scold him. He's in his own backyard, yet he's still admiring someone else? Did the Emperor choose someone with a bad brain and throw him into his own backyard?
Su Peisheng choked: "This...I don't know either."
The Fourth Master narrowed his eyes and glanced at Liu, then finally flicked his sleeves and left.
Jiu'er had said, "Don't meddle in women's affairs." Today, he would just endure it.
Before he could take two steps, he saw Liu blocking his way again.
The Fourth Master's fists were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound and were as black as ink.
Every time Liu saw the Fourth Master, she had no expression on her face. She didn't realize that the Fourth Master was angry now. She just smiled and said, "My Lord, this soup tastes very good. Would you like to have a little?"
As she said this, she turned sideways to show the most beautiful side of her face, then lowered her eyes slightly and carefully brought the soup to the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master stared at Liu for a long while. Just as Liu shyly bit her lips, she occasionally heard the Fourth Master's cold voice: "Didn't you just say that this thing was for Jiu'er to apologize? Now you want to give it to me?"
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Liu's face froze for a moment, but she was quick-witted and quickly relaxed. She immediately said, "I can go get some more food for Sister Wen later. Anyway, I'll accompany Sister Wen."
The Fourth Master sneered, "Why? My woman needs this little food?"
After thinking for a moment, the Fourth Master frowned and turned back to order, "Su Peisheng, tell the people serving the young lady to be careful and to check everything the young lady imports carefully."
Thinking of Wen Jiu's heartless look, the Fourth Master finally added: "Don't stuff everything someone gives you into your mouth!"
Su Peisheng immediately responded: "Yeah."
The Fourth Master had official business to attend to and was too lazy to argue with these people, so he turned around and left.
Su Peisheng glanced at Liu from behind. To be honest, he looked down on this person.
The person who likes to stop people the most in their mansion is the concubine.
But the concubine would never do such a thing as waiting at someone's door and throwing herself into someone's arms.
The concubine always stops the Fourth Master on his way, so she is considered to be upright.
If Liu Shi was truly courageous, she could have entered the courtyard and challenged the young lady to a duel, each on their own merits. Standing guard at someone else's door like this wouldn't be disgusting enough.
But he still uses the girl as an excuse, calling her Sister Wen all the time, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
The girl has been staying in this backyard for many years, and this princess has only been here for a few days, but she has taken a long time to come.
Come to think of it, she probably didn't leave a good impression on the prince.
It is also said that those who are greedy will never achieve anything great.
Not to mention the distant past, just look at Lord Beile and the other princes, which one of them is not greedy?
But she was scolded all over with just one sentence.
Even I, a eunuch, am also greedy for that thing, so why can't I achieve anything great? Now, am I not also very valued by the prince?
Wen Jiu was behind him, listening to Xiao Jin tell her everything that the Fourth Master and Liu had said, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
When she met her grandfather, such a straight man, Liu threw all her seductive eyes at the fool.
When Liu heard the laughter, she turned around suddenly. This was the first time she saw Wen Jiu up close, and she was shocked.
The woman in front of him was dressed simply, her long hair tied back with a wooden hairpin, and a neat black dress. But once he set eyes on that face, he couldn't take his eyes off her.
