Chapter 412: I’ll spoil you after you give birth to a child?
Wen Jiu still shook his head: "I'm not scared."
The Fourth Master couldn't help but frown slightly after hearing this: "Then what's going on?"
Wen Jiu suddenly reached out and hooked the Fourth Master's little finger, looking up and smiling, "I just think that the Master is particularly good-looking today, and has a particularly good temper, and is also good to Jiu'er."
The Fourth Master was startled, the corners of his mouth twitching subconsciously, and the next second his face suddenly turned stern: "Why, am I not being nice to you on weekdays?"
This little girl is really heartless. When did she treat others like this? She only discovered it today?
However, the Fourth Master was somewhat relieved. It was finally worth it that he had spent today accompanying the woman in the backyard and listening to their trivial matters.
[Ding, received 1 heart from the Fourth Master for upgrading.]
Suddenly hearing the system broadcast, Wen Jiu couldn't help but curl her lips slightly, and then looked at the Fourth Master next to her. She saw that the Fourth Master looked straight ahead, frowned slightly, and seemed to be very disdainful of what she said.
Wenjiu almost couldn't help laughing out loud, and he pulled the Fourth Master's hand even tighter.
The fourth master's brows were twisted even more. He poked Wenjiu's forehead and said in a low voice, "Nonsense! Do you know where this place is?"
This little girl was becoming more and more lawless. In public, she was secretly tickling his palm behind his back.
How could the Fourth Master not know what the little girl wants to do?
After not seeing me for a while, maybe she was thinking the same thing as me. No, maybe she was thinking even more than me.
It's just a pity that now she's pregnant. The Fourth Master couldn't help but let his Adam's apple move slightly as he said solemnly, "It won't take long. Once the baby is born, I'll spoil you. Don't worry. There's no point in being anxious, understand?"
Warming the wine: "..."
Is this said to himself, or is this gentleman trying to persuade himself?
The two of them were talking halfway when they suddenly saw Laishou, who was serving the concubine, approaching from a distance.
"Greetings, Lord Beile, may you be blessed. Miss Wen is doing well." Lai Shou came up and immediately followed the two of them in paying his respects.
The Fourth Master waved his hand, then frowned: "Why are you crying?"
Lai Shou wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, "Lord Beile, please save our concubine. She has been feeling unwell lately, but our courtyard has been under house arrest. She can't even leave to find a doctor. I am really at my wit's end, so I came here to beg you, please show some mercy. Please help me get a doctor." As he spoke, he kowtowed, "Lord Beile, please, please get a doctor to see our concubine."
The Fourth Master couldn't help but frown when he heard this: "What happened to Concubine Concubine?"
Lai Shou's eyes were red as he spoke, "The concubine has been confined for these days. She can't enjoy her meals and cries all day and night. She has nightmares in the middle of the night, and she keeps saying that she knows she's wrong. As time goes by, she's become thinner and thinner. She has lost her appetite for the past two days and has been chanting sutras and reciting Buddhist scriptures all day, saying that she's praying for the health of the prince."
The Fourth Master frowned deeply: "Why can't the people at Ruyi Pavilion invite the palace doctor?"
This question was not directed at Lai Shou, but instead shifted the focus to Su Peisheng.
Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng stepped forward and replied, "Master, the gate to the rear courtyard is guarded by Fu Jin's men, but..."
"Lord, please save our concubine. She can't see Lord, nor our Second Prince, and she is getting thinner day by day. I'm really scared... scared..." After saying this, Lai Shou knocked his head to the ground with red eyes.
Su Peisheng looked at Shou calmly, thinking that he hadn't said half of what he had just said. It was indeed the wife's men who were guarding the gate, but it was a joke to say that the concubine couldn't even send a message or call a doctor.
Everyone in this mansion knows that the concubine is the most favored one.
Although the girl is favored now, she is still a long way from being a high-ranking official in terms of status.
How could anyone possibly use these to embarrass the concubine? Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
Seeing Lai Shou crying sincerely, Su Peisheng didn't say anything, but just subconsciously glanced at the Fourth Master's expression.
The Fourth Master frowned lightly, his face showing no extraneous expression. After a while, he said, "Master said that you are under house arrest, but he didn't say that you can't go and get a doctor. Su Peisheng, go get the doctor from the Liu Mansion to check on Concubine Concubine."
"Tell her to relax. Her confinement will be lifted when I return from my southern tour."
As soon as these words came out, Lai Shou's eyes flashed with joy. He immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Beile, thank you, Lord Beile. If Concubine Jin knew, she would definitely cry with joy."
The Fourth Master took two steps, warming the wine, and suddenly stopped. He continued, "Oh, right, go replace the gatekeepers in front with those from the front yard. Have the Liu family doctor go to the back yard every two weeks to check the pulses of all the female masters."
Not knowing what he had thought of, the Fourth Master said, "Go and tell Aunt Xie later that the eldest and second princes should move back to live with their mother in the near future."
Lai Shou's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and he immediately said, "My Lord, would you like to come sit in our courtyard?"
The Fourth Master nodded at that time: "Well, tell the Concubine that I will be there later. Please let her take good care of herself."
"Well, I'll go back and tell the Concubine right away. If she knew you, Lord Beile, were coming to dine, she would be delighted. I'll have someone go to the kitchen and bring you your favorite meal."
The Fourth Master waved his hand: "No, I don't want to eat."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards Qingliang Pavilion with warm wine.
Wenjiu subconsciously looked at the Fourth Master carefully and did not speak for a long time.
The Fourth Master paused after noticing this and glanced down at Wen Jiu: "Why are you looking at me like that again?"
Wen Jiu only said: "Why don't you just release Concubine Jin from her confinement?"
In fact, Wenjiu could see that the Fourth Master seemed to be more lenient towards Li than towards Lady Fujin.
She felt that what the eunuch next to Li said just now was full of loopholes, and she thought that the Fourth Master probably didn't believe all of it, but he still went along with the meaning and gave Li a reassurance.
Later, the children were sent back to the wife and concubine as they wished.
During the time that Li was under house arrest, the Fourth Master took the eldest and second princes to the front to be raised. His wet nurse Xie was in charge of their diet and the health of the princes.
It is estimated that the Fourth Master raised the children astray in the backyard and would personally educate them when he has time. I didn't expect that he could teach the children well and send them back.
I don’t know if it was because he was about to go on a southern tour and had no time to take care of her, or because he wanted to satisfy Li’s longing for her son.
