Chapter 7 The Fourth Master is upright, has your sister been wronged?
The Fourth Master was furious. He had originally thought that when he returned home he would kill the slave who had climbed into his bed, poured cold water on him, and even treated him violently. He had never expected that his mother's men would arrive so quickly.
After thinking about it, he turned around and went to the main courtyard of the concubine.
Su Peisheng picked up the umbrella and trotted after the Fourth Master.
I was complaining in my heart, so should I give the money or not?
Before the Fourth Master could even reach Lady Fu's yard, he was stopped by someone.
Concubine Li was wearing a pink cloak inlaid with fur, which made her bright little face look even more beautiful.
When she saw the Fourth Master, she came over with tears in her eyes and said, "My Lord, last night I dreamt of a frightened horse. I thought you would ride a horse when you went to court today, and I was so worried that I couldn't sleep.
I'm relieved to see you're okay." Then, she wiped away her tears with her sleeve.
The Fourth Master's face was expressionless: "I came back today by carriage."
Li's expression froze, and her smile became a little stiff: "It turns out that I was thinking too much..."
The Fourth Master nodded: "Well, you think too much."
Li choked, the corners of her eyes twitched, and she twisted her handkerchief, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Su Peisheng behind him heard this and quietly lowered his head.
Logically speaking, he had just been scolded by the Fourth Master, so he shouldn't be in a good mood.
But when he heard Concubine Li talking to her master, he couldn't help but want to laugh...
The Fourth Master glanced at Li, whose face was growing paler, and asked in confusion, "Aren't you cold?"
Li's expression finally eased a little. The master was really concerned about her.
She coughed twice again and said, "Thank you for your concern, Lord Beile, but I have walked so much that my legs are a little sore..."
As she spoke, she gently fell onto the Fourth Master.
The Fourth Master frowned and held her up with his hands: "In that case, let's go to Fu Jin's place to warm up."
Li was stunned. How come this... was different from what he had imagined?
Shouldn't we tell her and send her back?
Behind him, Su Peisheng's head was almost hanging to the ground, and when he looked closely, he saw that his shoulders were still shaking slightly.
"Yes! If you feel unwell, come in and warm yourself up." A gentle voice sounded, and then Fu Jin came out of the yard wearing a fire fox fur cloak and smiling.
She had a pretty face, a small, round face, and a hint of childishness. She looked two years younger than Li. Perhaps because of her childish appearance, she had chosen a bright red color to accentuate the look. However, the dress didn't suit her at all.
The Fourth Master nodded: "Yes, come in together."
Then, he strode into the house.
Behind him, Consort Ulanara glanced at Li with a half-smile: "Fourth Master has a righteous heart. My sister has been wronged, right?"
Li was made fun of, and her face looked very unhappy. Seeing the Fourth Master walking away, she lowered her chin and said, "What are you talking about, Fu Jin? How dare I feel wronged?
I'm not the only one who does this to me. When I saw you, my wife, I didn't help you either, did I? "
Then Li rubbed her arm again and complained, "Master is really a bitch. He was worried that I would fall, so he anxiously helped me up and pinched my arm until it hurt. He was also worried that I would be cold, so he asked me to rest here with Madam Fu. Master is also like that. He didn't even care about Madam Fu a word."
After saying this, she didn't even look at Fu Jin.
She twisted her slender waist and walked into the house.
"Fujin, please don't get angry." Nanny Sun beside Fujin whispered, "The prince has always been more tolerant of her. If you make a fuss, I'm afraid it will not end well."
Fu Jin glanced at Li's back calmly and said, "Don't worry, I know."
Then he straightened his sleeves, put on a faint smile, and walked into the house with great grace.
The Fourth Master sat at the table, picked up a booklet and started reading it, seemingly not noticing his wife and concubine.
Li glanced at Fu Jin, then stood up immediately and attentively brought a cup of tea to the Fourth Master's hand. "Thank you for your hard work, Lord Beile. Please have some tea."
Fu Jin endured and endured, finally keeping the smile on her face: "Sister is good at offering flowers to Buddha."
Nanny Sun smiled and said at the right moment, "When Fu Jin learned that Prince Beile was coming, she deliberately made this Sanqing tea by herself, which took a lot of effort."
The Fourth Master suppressed his annoyance, picked up the teacup and put it into his mouth. He didn't taste anything different, but he still praised: "Fujin is thoughtful."
Li curled her lips and deliberately took a stool and placed it between the Fourth Master and his wife, separating the two of them. She was about to lean on the Fourth Master.
Seeing this, Fu Jin lowered her head and poured the tea so hard that her nails almost dug into her palms.
The Fourth Master suddenly frowned and asked, "Li, are you warm now?"
Li's eyes lit up: "My Lord, I'm warm now, you don't have to worry." She glanced at Fu Jin vaguely, and her smile became brighter.
Fu Jin: “!!!”
Bitch!!!
The Fourth Master said again, "It's good that it's warm. Then you can go back. I and Fu Jin have something to talk about."
Li: “……???”
"What do you mean, Lord Beile?" The smile on Li's face was obviously unable to be maintained.
The Fourth Master said, "Didn't you come in to warm up? Go back when you're warm." Then he turned around and looked at Su Peisheng, "Go and see him off."
Fu Jin looked at Li's face of disbelief, and the smile on her face finally became more sincere. After all, the prince still had her, his legitimate wife, in his heart.
After hesitating for a long time, she also moved closer to the Fourth Master and said carefully: "My sister has a childlike mind, very innocent and naive. Mother usually doesn't like her. Otherwise, let her have the palace banquet tomorrow..."
Before Fu Jin could finish her words, she saw the Fourth Master put down the gift list and pointed at it with his slender fingers: "Why did you give my mother a pillow?"
Fu Jin was stunned for a moment, and asked blankly: "Is there any problem with this jade pillow?"
When Su Peisheng heard what the Fourth Master said, he knew why the concubine had to go back so early.
This is because Lord Beile is considering the face of his wife!
It has been several years since Fu Jin married in, but she still hasn't figured out Concubine De's taboos. Su Peisheng can only sigh.
My wife is the only girl in the Ulanara family. She has four older brothers and has been spoiled since she was a child.
She is good at knitting and needlework, and has good knowledge and etiquette, but she is obviously lacking in interpersonal relationships.
The Fourth Master didn't show any impatience, but simply said, "When Mother was pregnant with Sixth Brother, someone tampered with her pillow. Although Sixth Brother gave birth safely, he was born weak and died young. Mother won't be happy to see the pillow you gave her."
Fu Jin's face turned visibly pale, and she immediately knelt down and bowed, "Lord Beile, I really don't know. This is the first time I've taken over these things. In the past, they were all handled by the front yard."
Nanny Sun beside her also knelt down and said, "Please forgive me, Lord Beile. This list was drawn up by me. It's all my fault for not consulting Miss Wenjiu beforehand. I am guilty."
