Chapter 800: Eighth Master: You are a fake Fourth Young Master!
After hearing this, Mr. Ba paused. After looking Wenjiu up and down, he suddenly laughed out loud: "Hahaha, how funny. Wenjiu, what impression do I leave on you in my daily life? You don't think I'm a fool, do you?"
As the Eighth Master spoke, his eyes narrowed slightly. "I don't know what you're up to, but you're really too desperate. You dare to impersonate anyone. That's the Fourth Young Master, as famous as Fourth Brother. Are you crazy?"
Wen Jiu met the disgusted face of the Eighth Master. He tried to hold it back, but couldn't help it and rolled his eyes: "If you don't believe it, forget it."
The Eighth Master's face wasn't much better either. After spending so much time with Wen Jiu, he couldn't maintain his gentle expression. He just rolled his eyes at Wen Jiu and said, "You want to trick me? No way!"
He sat down on the chair, bored out of his mind, and complained again, "Hey, when are Old Nine and Old Ten coming back?"
After saying this, seeing that Wenjiu on the opposite side ignored him at all, Mr. Ba was so angry that he gritted his teeth: "Hey, I'm talking to you."
Wen Jiu raised his eyes lazily, glanced at Mr. Ba lightly, and smiled with eight teeth showing: "Sorry. I have a name, my surname is Wen and my name is Jiu, thank you." After saying that, the smile was completely retracted, and he slumped in the chair, like an old man, closing his eyes and resting leisurely.
The Eighth Master was so angry that his fists creaked. "Warm the wine! I'm asking you a question!"
Wen Jiu didn't even raise his eyes, just closed his eyes and replied: "I heard it."
The veins in Mr. Ba's arms bulged. "Why didn't you reply when you heard it?"
Wen Jiu: "I don't know either."
Eighth Master: “…”
Hey, it’s been so many years since I felt this itchy fist!
How on earth did this woman do it to make me want to strangle her all the time?
For a moment, Mr. Ba felt that all the good temper he had cultivated over the years had been shattered by the little fourth sister-in-law in front of him.
Seeing that the Eighth Master seemed in a bad mood, Master Xiao Meng hesitated for a moment, but finally stepped forward, bowed slightly, clasped his fists, and said with a stiff upper lip, "Concubine Wen was merely joking with you, Eighth Master. Actually, the Eighth Master simply wanted to meet the Fourth Young Master, and perhaps I could do my bit to help. I've heard of the Fourth Young Master, too. He... and my father-in-law have some friendship. If the Eighth Master wishes to see him, I can, upon returning to the capital and passing through the customs, present a visiting card to the Fourth Young Master with my father-in-law. Then, perhaps I can introduce you to a meeting."
Lord Xiao Meng feels that recently, working with Concubine Wen has become more relaxing than ever before. It can be said that Concubine Wen is a very good colleague.
Although sometimes what she said was a bit too irrelevant. She must have just wanted to save herself from the predicament, so she mentioned that she was the Fourth Young Master.
It would be a bad idea to cause unnecessary trouble to Concubine Wen.
To be honest, he has always disliked dealings in the court, and what he despised most was using connections to get in through the back door.
At first, he found that Wen Jiu often did such things, and he looked down on her a little.
However, I've recently discovered that Concubine Wen uses her connections very effectively, making things much easier for her than he does.
For example, a few days ago, he wanted some special ingredients to make a meal.
While she was still figuring out where to get the supplies, she had already called over a few friends from the Imperial Hospital. Not only did they bring the supplies back for her, they also sorted out some other herbs to warm and nourish her body. They also got several prescriptions along the way.
It was also from that day that Lord Xiao Meng felt that perhaps some interactions might be beneficial and it might be worth a try.
After a moment's thought, he added, "Eighth Master, I too have had the pleasure of meeting the Fourth Young Master. I haven't had the chance to exchange a single word with him, but I have seen his true appearance, and he is truly a man of divine beauty. My father-in-law says he is also a very gentle person. I'm sure we would have a pleasant conversation, Eighth Master."
Lord Xiao Meng finally complimented her. Seeing that the Eighth Master seemed to be very rude to Concubine Wen, he thought to himself that he should take better care of her.
"If that's the case, it would be wonderful." The Eighth Master immediately smiled. "I'd like to trouble you, Lord Meng. It's a great honor to meet someone like the Fourth Young Master. I'd like to ask Little Lord Meng to deliver a visiting card for me. I'm sorry to trouble you, Lord Meng."
The Eighth Master always knew how to get others to do things for him as much as possible while gaining their favor. Now that this person was the Emperor's direct minister, it was naturally worth his effort.
After hearing this, Lord Meng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "I am willing to deliver this letter to the Eighth Master."
After saying that, he glanced at the warm wine.
Wenjiu blinked his eyes, glanced at Master Xiao Meng who was winking at him, and finally smiled: "Thank you, I'm so happy."
Then he lazily turned his head to the side, too lazy to look at the two. He was really impressed. How could he explain that he was himself?
On this side, Master Xiao Meng saw Wen Jiu's expression and couldn't help but frown slightly.
Concubine Wen was capable and extremely intelligent. However, she was not without flaws, for example, her temperament was rather unstable and her manners were somewhat lacking. Ultimately, she needed more time to improve.
To be honest, at first, I just thought Concubine Wen was a bit of a foxy person. I thought the emperor was also foolish to entrust such a big thing to a vase.
Only now did he realize that her way of dealing with people was far superior to that of an ordinary person. He was certain that with her smoothness, she would be able to get by even if she entered the court. It was a pity that she was a woman.
While thinking about this, he couldn't help but look at her several times again, and indeed found that the concubine was lazily resting with her eyes closed, and didn't even look at him.
The Eighth Master glanced at the warm wine, then glanced at Lord Meng on the other end of the road and raised his eyebrows.
Could this woman be trying to lure Lord Meng over to the Fourth Brother's side as well? The couple had big appetites, and since this was the Emperor's loyal subject, they weren't afraid of eating something that would cause him to have a stomachache.
Fourth brother's martial arts skills have been abandoned now. Could it be that he is trying to find more people to support him in other ways?
"Little Sister-in-law! Myna! We're back!"
Just when the Eighth Master was still trying to figure it out, he suddenly saw the Ninth Master and the Tenth Master, both sweating profusely, striding towards them from a distance.
Jiu Ye came closer and gulped down two pots of water beside the wine-warming table. Then he let out a long sigh: "Oh, I'm finally alive. I was dying of thirst."
"How's it going?" Wen Jiu pushed an ice bowl towards him. "Have you checked the quantity?"
Jiu Ye nodded: "Yes, I have confirmed it several times, and it is not much different from our estimate."
Wen Jiu nodded: "Then we have an idea."
"Yeah." Jiu Ye also nodded: "What were you talking about just now? It was quite lively."
"We were just talking about the Fourth Young Master." The Eighth Master smiled faintly. "Old Nine is also very familiar with the Fourth Young Master. Why don't you tell me about it in detail?"
Go ahead and say it, he looked at Wenjiu beside him with a smile, and the sarcasm in his eyes was very obvious.
The Ninth Master was now warming the wine and the Eighth Master's faces. He looked back and forth several times and raised his eyebrows: "Fourth... Young Master?"
