Chapter 517: Fourth Master: No rush, no rush!!!
“…What are you doing?”
The Fourth Master stared blankly at the warm wine. The little girl was now pregnant and was kneading some white dough in her hands. Her clothes and hair were all covered with dough, which looked very funny.
And next to her, the person who looked even more miserable than her was...
Crown Princess?
After returning from the previous dynasty, he had been thinking about his worries. Bu Yu, who was beside him, did report some things to him, but the Fourth Master did not take it to heart.
Only when I entered the house did I realize...the Crown Princess was in my house!
"Greetings, Crown Princess." The Fourth Master took a deep breath and finally came back to his senses and saluted the Crown Princess.
Even though the Crown Princess was very shrewd, she couldn't hold back for a moment when faced with the extremely surprised look of the Fourth Master.
Speaking of which, I really indulged myself too much today. Wenjiu's strawberry mille-feuille tasted very good, fragrant and sweet. On a whim, I sat up with Wenjiu and ordered the strawberry mille-feuille.
And cream is also very sweet. Just apply it on yourself and it will turn into a beautiful snack. You will have a lot of fun playing with it.
At this moment, the Crown Princess's face regained its usual calm expression. She put down the things in her hands and nodded seriously to the Fourth Master: "Fourth brother is back?"
The Fourth Master nodded: "...Yes."
Fourth Master: "Is the Crown Princess doing well these days?"
The Crown Princess: "...All is well."
Fourth Master: “…”
Crown Princess: "..."
Wen Jiu glanced at the Fourth Master, then at the Crown Princess, blinked twice, and said, "Master, the Crown Princess came to see me today. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said you've been busy lately and often have no time, so he discussed with the Crown Princess about coming over to help out. The Crown Princess also brought quite a few gifts today."
These words seemed to ease the awkward atmosphere somewhat.
The Fourth Master clasped his fists and bowed silently: "Thank you, Crown Princess."
The Crown Princess waved her hand: "You're welcome, Fourth Brother."
The Crown Princess turned her head to glance at the warm wine, but finally said reluctantly: "Then I will go back now? I will come to see you another day."
Wen Jiu wanted to persuade him to stay, but seeing the stern face of the Fourth Master next to him, he nodded and stood up, saying, "I'll see the Crown Princess off..."
"No need." The Crown Princess decisively refused the warm wine. "Your belly is already big, so don't bother. I'll be back soon. I'll come over to accompany you when you give birth."
As he spoke, without waiting for the Fourth Master and Wenjiu to speak, he just smiled and nodded, then turned and left.
When he turned around, a look of regret appeared on his face.
Her lifelong reputation!
"Crown Princess, wait a minute." The Crown Princess hadn't even taken two steps when she heard the Fourth Master's voice, and for a moment she froze.
Before the Fourth Master could say anything, Wen Jiu just pushed him and said, "Master said he has something else to do and will be out for a while. Crown Princess, I have two more words to say to you."
The Fourth Master was silent for a moment and then turned around and left the room.
Wen Jiu just tugged at the Crown Princess's hand and said, "You'd better stay here and freshen up before you leave."
Pinming silently took the wet handkerchief from Liusu's hand, and went over to help the Crown Princess wipe her face, which was covered with who knows how many pieces of flour.
Crown Princess: "..."
There really is no more fame in this life.
Wenjiu really didn't care much about it. He rubbed some on his face and simply washed up with the Crown Princess.
After washing up, Wenjiu asked someone to bring several sesame balls to the Crown Princess.
She found that the Crown Princess seemed to prefer dairy products. She had eaten most of the plate of milk candy used to warm the wine, so she simply gave her some.
Although the Crown Princess did not allow him to be seen off, Wen Jiu still saw her off and watched her get into the carriage.
[Ding, received 1 heart from the Crown Princess.]
From a distance, the Crown Princess could no longer be seen, but he could still hear the news of her growing love, and the smile on Wenjiu's lips deepened.
This girl is quite lovely. Wen Jiu could see that she still had the temperament of a young girl, but she had to act like a princess. It was really hard for her.
"What are you looking at? It's getting cold outside. Let's go home first."
The Fourth Master completely blocked Wenjiu's view and asked, "Can you walk? Do you want me to carry you? Did you have any cramps today? Did you eat anything wrong? Did you sleep well? Are you feeling unwell?"
Wen Jiu was silent for a moment: "Master, you asked Su Peisheng to ask these questions two hours ago..."
Fourth Master: "That happened two hours ago. I'm asking about now."
Wen Jiu: "...It's all fine, don't worry."
Seeing that the Fourth Master was about to say something, Wen Jiu immediately asked, "Why did you come back so early today?"
The Fourth Master only said, "I came back to see if you were feeling unwell."
As he said this, he wanted to come over and warm the wine.
Wen Jiu waved his hand and said, "Jiu'er, you'd better go on your own. If you don't move, I'll be covered in mold."
If the Fourth Master hadn't said anything, he would have supported her and continued, "The Imperial Physician said that you might be due in the next few days. Do you feel any different today?"
Wen Jiu shook his head: "Not yet..."
The Fourth Master nodded and patted Wenjiu's head soothingly: "Don't worry, don't worry, it's okay if you don't feel anything. Don't worry."
Wenjiu: "..." Who of us is anxious?
Fourth Master: "I have found a few more suitable midwives today. Do you have room in your yard? Let them live there and keep an eye on you at all times."
When Wen Jiu heard this, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Master, didn't you find four midwives a while ago? There are enough people."
Then he counted on his fingers, "I currently have two female doctors and four midwives living in the east wing. Doctor Liu, the doctor from the Liu residence, and Doctor Li are also here, staying in the east wing outside. You've sent two more groups of maids from my own courtyard, and now with the addition of four midwives, there's really no room left."
The Fourth Master had been keen on stuffing people into her courtyard recently. Even though her courtyard was slightly larger, it was still no bigger than the courtyards of ordinary concubines. Where could he put so many people?
Plus, the Fourth Master usually liked to stuff things in her room, and the wine he gave her couldn't be stored in the space, so she had to put it out in the open. The things alone took up two rooms.
In the past, Wenjiu thought her Qingliang Pavilion was quite large, but now, after some tinkering, she found that it was still a little small.
When the children are born, there will most likely not be enough space for each of them plus the people who will serve them.
The Fourth Master frowned: "With more people, it's always safer."
"Ah...A-choo!" As he spoke, willow catkins flew over. Wenjiu sneezed and continued, "...Really, there's no need to be too nervous..."
