Chapter 920: Proposing marriage?
Dabao: “…No.”
Sibao: "But, brother, why is there dust on Huang Mafa?"
Dabao: “…”
Sanbao: "There are footprints on Huang Mafa's clothes."
Dabao: “…”
Since Dabao didn't say anything, Sanbao and Sibao turned their attention to Liang Jiugong beside them.
Liang Jiugong laughed dryly twice: "Ahem. Well, my dear brothers, the emperor has gone far away, why don't we follow him first?"
At this moment, Liang Jiugong was also very confused. Could it be... Could it be... that the emperor was really beaten?
…
"Master, master! Look!"
Shanzha was now hurriedly carrying a few red plum blossoms, and ran into the house with her skirt lifted up: "Look, there are the best red plum blossoms on the hill behind. You said they were beautiful earlier, so I picked some specially and brought them back for you."
Seeing that her master was in a bad mood these past two days, she thought of buying some early in the morning to cheer her up.
"I told you to pack your things early in the morning, so I knew you would get up. But I didn't see you anymore. It turns out you went out to pick red plums! It's a coincidence that you came back now. Look, who's here?" Liusu said, smiling and winking.
Shanzha took a quick look and said, "No one's here. I'm going back to Beijing tomorrow, and Sister Liusu is busy packing up the master's things. I thought I'd get up early to clean up, so I went out to pick red plums, saving you the trouble of worrying about me."
Wenjiu tapped Shanzha's forehead and said, "What a beautiful red plum. I like it."
As he spoke, he helped Hawthorn clean the snow off his cloak.
Shanzha simply took off the cloak he was wearing.
"Master, don't do it. It's cold. Take care of yourself." Then he took it to the outer room, shook his cloak, and turned back to ask, "What did Sister Liusu say? Who came just now?"
Liusu laughed when she heard this. She glanced at Shanzha again and pointed outside: "Look."
"Concubine, I've brought you some snacks."
As soon as Liusu finished speaking, she vaguely saw Buyu waiting outside through the curtain. She could tell from the sight that he was carrying a lot of things.
It was snowing outside, and Buyu felt a little cold. Naturally, he didn't dare to go into the inner room. He just answered the phone from outside through a curtain.
Shanzha was stunned. Seeing Wenjiu and Liusu looking at her with smiles, she immediately glared at them: "He's here, so why are you making fun of me, sister?"
After saying that, he covered his red face and ran out through the small door at the back.
Liusu also laughed: "Master, look, this girl is really shy."
Seeing Wenjiu smiling, Liusu breathed a sigh of relief. Her master had been worried about the health of young master Tanluan and had not slept well for the past two days.
Wen Jiu could only laugh and shake his head, then said: "No words, come in."
Buyu then lifted the curtain and placed the scattered things on his body on the table.
"Concubine, these are sent to you by the prince."
Wen Jiu took a look and asked, "Is your Highness done with your work?"
"Not yet. The prince is busy today, but they are all trivial matters. The prince also said that there is no need to worry about them. Please don't worry about them.
Today, the prince sent me back to Beijing to deliver a memorial. He heard that a new shop had recently opened that makes excellent dim sum, and all the young girls in Beijing love it. He specifically asked me to bring some back, thinking that you might be bored in the back room, so he brought it back for you to taste.
Look, this is crab roe pastry, different from the ones made in the palace. There's also a vanilla cheese pastry, which I heard is also delicious. I don't see it in other shops.
The prince also said that other people’s snacks are not as good as yours, so he asked you to try a few bites first. If you like it, he will bring the chef back to make different dishes for you.
There are also some other little things that the prince asked me to buy to entertain you."
Wen Jiu looked at the full table and realized that his preparations for the past two days had been in vain.
She thought to herself that she had never shown any worry in front of the Fourth Master, but the Fourth Master saw it clearly and was buying her some small things to comfort her.
Liusu had already brought the wine to her lips. She naturally didn't want to spoil the fun, so she took it and took a sip. "Hmm, it tastes really good. I'm afraid ordinary shops can't make it. But, we're doing business seriously, so please don't ask the chef to come to our house. If you do, I'm afraid Xiao Anzi will cry."
He just smiled as he listened without saying anything: "Yes, I will definitely tell Your Highness the truth. Your Highness knows that you like it, so I'm sure he will be happy too."
Liusu: "Little Anzi's skills are so good that he can learn them just by looking at them a few times. But don't let him know, or we'll have to eat snacks every day."
Liusu was joking, taking the opportunity to bring a snack to the warm wine, coaxing her master to eat more, so that she wouldn't be too impatient and eat less every day.
"Don't just focus on me, you guys should try it too, there are plenty of them." Wen Jiu said.
"Yes." Buyu responded, but he didn't look at the snacks. He couldn't help but glance towards the inner room.
"Lord Buyu, what's wrong? Why do you look like you've lost your soul after entering this room? What are you looking for?" Liusu said with a smile as she served warm wine and food.
Buyu's face turned red. The two-meter-tall man just stood there stupidly, stammering for a long time and unable to speak a complete sentence.
This appearance made Liusu laugh.
Wenjiu smiled and patted Shanzha: "Bad girl, don't tease him."
As he said that, he looked at Buyu and said, "That girl Shanzha went out from the back. If you want to find her, go and block her outside. Maybe you can see her."
When Buyu heard this, he grinned and said, "Well, I'll take my leave then."
Wen Jiu smiled and waved his hand: "Go ahead."
"Master, this Buyu is like an idiot. He just keeps chasing people around all day long. Why doesn't he come to propose marriage? Doesn't he care about us Shanzha?" Liusu said as she saw Buyu was nowhere to be seen.
Wenjiu was at a loss for words and clapped Liusu's hand. Before he could say anything, the silent big man came back from the door as expected.
Although they spoke in low voices, how could they not hear him? Liusu, that girl, was not sure if she did it on purpose.
"Concubine, Buyu definitely doesn't care about Miss Shanzha. If he has such bad intentions, he will make Buyu die a miserable death!" Buyu knelt on the ground in a hurry.
"Hurry up and get up. She was just joking. Does she want you to swear?" Wen Jiu said as he was about to help him up.
"Concubine, I cannot afford to marry you. I... I own a hundred acres of fertile land. I am a clean-minded person and have never held another woman's hand. If I marry, I will never marry anyone else. Now, can I ask for your hand in marriage?"
It was not surprising that the wine was warm, but he sat back in his chair slowly, poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly.
"Concubine, as for Shanzha's betrothal gift, just tell me. If you have any requests, feel free to ask.
I have some savings over the years, and I will definitely give them all. If I don't have enough, my elder brother has also saved a lot over the years, and can also use it.
My brother and I lost our parents early, and we've been with the prince since we were young. We don't have many older relatives. As long as Shanzha marries in, she will be the one who makes the decisions in our family."
This made Wen Jiu laugh: "Do you understand what you are saying?"
"My brother doesn't need to know. He said that if our family can find a daughter-in-law, he is willing to spend all his money."
Warming wine: "......"
Liusu beside her couldn't help laughing: "How can a sister-in-law control her uncles? If Shanzha hears this, she will definitely be furious."
Buyu was confused: "Then...then...just take care of brother's money and don't care about him!" Anyway, his brother's money was used to buy those storybooks, so it would be better to let Shanzha take care of it.
Liusu: "...You are amazing."
