Chapter 58 Only listen to our master
In the distance, Bu Yan Bu Yu temporarily let go of the Fourteenth Master and clasped his fists towards the Fourth Master: "Thank you, Master."
Fourteen was so angry that he rolled his eyes. Rewarding the two blind guards who were guarding him, wasn't this obviously a way to deal with him?
Based on Fourteen's previous temperament, he would definitely rush up and confront Fourth Master head-on.
Now, he finally has some experience. When dealing with a barbarian like his fourth brother, he cannot confront him head-on, but can only use his wits to defeat him.
So, while shooting arrows, he was thinking about how he could eat delicious food while making his fourth brother lose face!
On this side, the Fourth Master didn't even look at Fourteenth.
I was just wondering as I knocked on the warm wine that everyone else was thanking with joy, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you very happy?"
Wenjiu had just finished eating the chicken nuggets when he licked his fingers and nodded: "Happy."
I didn't expect that cooking a meal would bring such huge profits. So far, I have received five hearts from the Fourth Master, and I also got extra money.
She used to be the head maid, with a monthly allowance of two and a half taels of silver. To be honest, the purchasing power of silver is still good nowadays. If she used it all to buy rice, it would be enough for the family to eat for the whole year. However, the original owner also liked to dress up, and her monthly expenses were not small, so there was almost no money left.
Before entering the palace, my father gave me silver notes, my uncle gave me gold beans, and my aunt gave me gems. It is best to keep these things for yourself. They are used for daily social interactions, but they are too luxurious for Wen Jiu now.
However, the money earned from the Fourth Master is different.
The Fourth Master glanced at Wen Jiu with a puzzled look: "How much is your monthly allowance?"
"Two and a half taels..." Wen Jiu suddenly realized: "I am a concubine now, and I haven't received my monthly allowance yet. I think it will be more..."
How would the Fourth Master know, so he turned to look at Su Peisheng.
Su Peisheng immediately replied sensibly: "According to the rules, a concubine's annual allowance is thirty taels."
"Huh?" Wen Jiu frowned. "Thirty taels a year, and the monthly allowance is still two and a half taels? What about the princess?"
Su Peisheng: "The annual allowance for a princess is fifty taels."
Wenjiu blinked twice. This wasn't much better than his own situation.
Su Peisheng simply didn't wait for the wine to be warmed before asking, and added: "The annual allowance for a concubine is 200 taels, and the annual allowance for a legitimate wife is 300 taels."
Warming the wine: "..."
No wonder they all want to get to the top. What others do in one year is equivalent to what I do in ten years. Wow.
However, Wenjiu has always been content, so she was happy to receive two and a half taels for free, as she could have another big meal.
"Why are you so happy just because you got an extra two and a half taels of silver?" The Fourth Master looked at the not-so-valuable hairpin on Wen Jiu's head, then at the not-so-good material on her body, and then at her little face that was red from the cold, and his brows gradually twisted.
The Fourth Master couldn't help but start to reflect, how could the first-class maidservant around him be so shabby?
The Fourth Master didn't know that if the servants around him knew his thoughts, they would be so surprised that their mouths would be wide open.
From the perspective of the Fourth Master, Wen Jiu's outfit was naturally not good, but from the servants' point of view, this Miss Wen's outfit was not much worse than that of Lady Song.
The material is the same. Although the hairpin is elegant, it is exquisite. Moreover, it was awarded by the master. No one would dare to look down on it when seeing it, right?
After hearing what the Fourth Master said, Wen Jiu blinked his eyes and said, "Master, I'm not happy about the silver. What does it matter if I get two more or two less? The point is, this silver is a reward from you."
The Fourth Master was just thinking about what to choose for her later when he heard her say this. He was stunned for a moment, then he glared at Wen Jiu and said, "You're so slick."
Seeing Wen Jiu lowered his head obediently, looking depressed, the Fourth Master coughed lightly and said, "Forget it, tell me what reward you want."
Wen Jiu was originally complaining in his heart, but when he heard this, his eyes immediately lit up: "Master..."
Before he could say anything, he saw the Fourth Master covering his chest and saying, "I can't give you this button. This is my court dress."
Wenjiu wanted to roll his eyes. Who wants buttons?
"Master, just one bottle of wine would be enough."
The Fourth Master wanted to ask her what the buttons were used for, but he held back. As a prince, would he care about such a trivial matter?
"You only have one chance, so forget it."
"Speak, why not?" Wen Jiu immediately smiled. "Then, Jiu'er, please do me a favor and accompany me to Qingliang Pavilion for an hour, okay?"
The Fourth Master frowned again: "That's it?"
Wenjiu nodded: "Well, that's it, Jiu'er is very happy."
[Master, what are you doing? Why don't you just let the Fourth Master stay overnight? Don't forget your daily tasks. Only if the Fourth Master stays overnight can you get flower seeds!]
How could Wenjiu forget her daily tasks? However, she was more aware of her own importance and, naturally, understood the principle of boiling a frog in warm water.
The Fourth Master thought it was a trivial matter and agreed readily: "I'll have dinner at your place later."
Wen Jiu responded with a look of joy, and then said, "Master, I want to go back and prepare the wine first."
Seeing her joyful face, the Fourth Master couldn't help but feel better: "Go back, don't tire yourself out. I'll ask two people to take you back."
Thinking that Wenjiu was too indulged in herself, he would go to her place later and she might have to prepare a good meal for him.
Wenjiu immediately responded with a smile, but when he turned around, he was stopped by Fourteen.
"You can't leave!"
Fourteen finally practiced for an hour and immediately ran over following the fragrance.
"Fourth brother, she just made something delicious. I saw it. I'm hungry now and want to eat that!" His tone was much better than before.
The Fourth Master glanced at Fourteen calmly, then immediately picked up the last piece of chicken from the plate and put it into his mouth. Mm, it smells so good.
Fourteen was so angry at the Fourth Master that his head was burning with anger, but he really didn't dare to confront the Fourth Master head-on, so he glared at Wen Jiu and said, "My young master ordered you to make the meal I just had for you now."
Wenjiu blinked and looked at the Fourth Master for help, but the Fourth Master acted as if he didn't see her and continued eating the chicken nuggets.
Warming wine: "......"
Fourteen glared at him and said, "I'm talking to you!"
Wen Jiu immediately bowed to Fourteenth Master and said, "Fourteenth Master, I'm sorry I can't obey your command."
When these words were spoken, everyone around was shocked.
No one thought that Wenjiu would refuse.
This is the Fourteenth Prince, the most favored prince in the palace...
Even the Fourth Master looked over in surprise.
"Are you stupid?" Fourteen stared at Wenjiu in shock, "How dare you, a slave, disobey my orders?"
Wen Jiu came to the side of the Fourth Master and said, "This servant only listens to our master."
It's so cold, she won't do such thankless work again!
Fourteen blinked his eyes: "Say it again?"
Wen Jiu: "Our master didn't say anything, so the servant just cooked for our master."
As he said this, he tugged at the Fourth Master's sleeve pitifully.
What a bastard, he just watches the show and doesn't even know how to protect himself.
If it weren't for the fact that a heart of love appeared above his head, Wenjiu would have held a grudge against him!
