Chapter 420: Since Fourth Brother is not here, I can go find Fourth Sister-in-law.
When the Fourteenth Master heard this, his eyes rolled and he immediately said, "I also want to go with Fourth Brother and the others."
Emperor Kangxi heard this and waved his hand happily: "Go ahead, go ahead. Old Eight will come with you."
These annoying guys hang around me all day long. It would be great if I could get rid of them.
Then, Fourteen laughed and said, "Wenjiu, I want to eat spicy strips. Do you have any left? I haven't eaten them for a long time..."
"No." Before Wen Jiu could say anything, the Fourth Master refused. From a distance, the two brothers could still hear their unhappy conversation.
Emperor Kangxi withdrew his gaze calmly, suddenly stood up and stretched, and said, "Today is the date set for the southern tour in three days. I originally wanted to visit both of your palaces, but now is the perfect time, so I don't have to make a trip.
It's rare for you sisters to have a good and intimate chat, I won't disturb you, I'm going to the inner room to take a nap." Throwing down these words, Emperor Kangxi raised his foot and wanted to go to the inner room.
Concubine De: “…” Who is her sister?
Concubine Hui: "..." Who wants to be intimate with her?
Emperor Kangxi paused as he was walking towards the inner room. Suddenly, as if remembering something, he turned back and said, "When you bring Miss Wen's food back later, wake me up."
Defei finally responded, and Emperor Kangxi said in a good mood: "You guys continue chatting." He turned around and went into the house.
Behind him, Concubine De and Concubine Hui were speechless and looked at each other for a long time.
Wenjiu and the Fourth Master were walking all the way from Yonghe Palace to the Imperial Kitchen, and all they heard was the Fourth Master and the Fourteenth Master arguing. These two brothers were like two stinky and hard stones, bumping into each other for no reason.
No matter what Fourteen said, the Fourth Master just kept saying no. Beside him was the taciturn Eighth Master, who would occasionally look at him with inquiring eyes.
Wenjiu didn't show any expression on his face, but in fact he was always hoping that the road would go faster. It was really a bit torturous.
"Fourth brother! I didn't ask you, I asked Wenjiu, you don't have the final say!" The Fourteenth Master was so angry at the Fourth Master that he gritted his teeth. He asked Wenjiu to help prepare some food, but before Wenjiu could say anything, he was rejected by his fourth brother. However, he couldn't do anything about his fourth brother, so he just shifted his attention to Wenjiu.
Seeing that the Fourth Master also frowned and looked over, Wen Jiu blinked his eyes and immediately forced a smile and said, "I will listen to our Master."
Fourteen's eyes widened as he looked at the Fourth Master and then at the warm wine. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Can't you have a little bit of your own ideas? You keep talking about your master all day long, and you don't think you're tired of it!"
Wen Jiu blinked twice silently: "Not at all disgusting, my thoughts are my thoughts."
Wenjiu replied seriously. She understood that she had to give face to men when she was out.
[Ding, received 2 hearts from the Fourth Master for upgrading.]
Wen Jiu was not too surprised to hear the news of gaining love. When she looked up, she met the Fourth Master's eyes full of disapproval. He scolded her, "You said everything outside."
Warming the wine: "..."
In the end, he said obediently, "I won't dare to do it next time."
Then, she saw the heart on the Fourth Master's head turn visibly red.
The Fourteenth Master was forced to eat a mouthful of dog food and was immediately speechless. He stared with his eyes wide open for a long time and could not say anything. His steps also stopped where they were.
Wen Jiu took the opportunity to wink at him and mouthed softly, "I'll make it for you later."
Fourteen blinked, almost instantly understanding the meaning of warming the wine. The anger in his stomach was like a ball, and it was immediately deflated.
After Wenjiu said this, he obediently went back to his fourth brother and followed him obediently. Fourteen frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Wenjiu was also in a difficult position in Fourth Brother's backyard. Fourth Brother was always fierce and must be the worst at taking care of women. Wenjiu was of low status, so of course he had to coax Fourth Brother. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for Wenjiu and did not say anything to make things difficult for her. Instead, he stayed behind her obediently.
The Fourth Master in front took a look at Fourteenth's behavior and was a little uncomfortable. He looked like a fighting cock just now, so why was he so obedient now?
"Fourth brother and this... fourth sister-in-law have a really good relationship." The Eighth Master watched them all the way and suddenly said with a faint smile.
"I don't deserve it." When Wen Jiu heard this from the fourth sister-in-law, his hair stood on end and he said immediately.
"Eighth brother, you are too polite. It's not a good idea to call her Little Fourth Sister-in-law. You don't have to call her that." The Fourth Master said. The Ninth and Tenth Brothers were closer to Jiu'er on weekdays, so it was okay for them to say a few words to him. But when these three words came out of the Eighth Brother's mouth, the Fourth Master always felt uncomfortable.
Then he said, "The kitchen is just ahead. My eighth brother must have things to do, so let's say goodbye here."
The Eighth Master said, "The Emperor just said that you should follow your younger brother. Why doesn't your younger brother want to see you? Little Fourteen can follow, but your younger brother can't? Does your younger brother need a bite of food?"
As Mr. Ba spoke, there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
The Fourth Master glanced at him and said, "Eighth Brother, please do as you please." This Old Eighth Master always came up with these crooked ideas when he spoke. If he could find any evidence against you, there would be no hope of letting the matter go.
He has been against him since he was a child, and the Fourth Master has gotten used to it. But today, the Fourth Master is a little surprised.
Lao Ba has always been cautious. I didn't expect that he would take the initiative to ask to eat the food he made. Isn't he afraid that I would add laxatives to the food he gave him?
The Fourth Master hadn't figured out the Eighth Master's intentions yet when he saw the Ninth and Tenth Masters catching up with him from afar.
"Fourth brother, eighth brother, fourteenth brother!" The two greeted several people.
"Greetings, gentlemen." Wen Jiu also stepped forward and saluted the two of them.
Jiu Ye immediately waved his hands and said with a look of surprise, "Why are you in the palace today? I just told Lao Jiu that when I have time, I will go to Fourth Brother's house to see you. I have a lot to tell you."
Wen Jiu smiled and replied, "The Queen has summoned you..."
"Ah! I see," Jiu Ye suddenly clapped his hands and immediately burst into laughter: "Is it because Fourth Brother is too busy? He can't see you even if he wants to, so he just goes all out and brings you along to serve him."
Wen Jiu was at a loss for words, and before he could say anything, he heard the Tenth Master say, "Ninth Brother, you can be so confused sometimes. It's definitely not because Fourth Brother is too busy, but because Fourth Brother is about to go on a southern tour. He probably brought Little Fourth Sister-in-law with him to have a few more words with him."
The Tenth Master looked like he understood a lot and even winked at the Fourth Master.
"Yes, fourth brother is going on a southern tour." Jiu Ye suddenly realized. When he thought about his fourth brother leaving, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise a little.
He was so happy. Since Fourth Brother was not around, he could go to Fourth Sister-in-law as he pleased and get some food, and no one would bother him!
