"Ah, Jin'er is back!"
Unlike her second master's reserved demeanor, her third master immediately rushed towards Su Ruojin like a butterfly, accompanied by a fragrant breeze, and embraced her tightly.
"Little Jin'er, I've missed you so much! Let me see if you've lost weight." The Third Master released Su Ruojin and examined her carefully, then frowned.
"Why have you lost weight? Did that brat from the Xiao family bully you? Wait, your third master will go and teach him a lesson for you!"
Su Ruojin felt both warm and amused. "Third Master, Yan Chu treats me very well. I just don't quite like Xiao Yue's food."
Luo Meiniang finally stopped after hearing this, and turned to Huang Jian and said, "Second brother, go to Aunt Wang's house and buy another chicken, and catch a goose from Uncle Zhang's house as well, to give Xiao Jin'er a good nourishment, she's become so thin."
Huang Jian smiled and stood up, casually wiping his hands on the front of his clothes. "Okay, I'll go right now."
Su Ruojin didn't stop them. Her masters were just expressing their feelings for her in this way, so how could she refuse such care?
"Where is Fourth Master?" Su Ruojin asked.
"Don't you know him? He's off to the back mountain to compose music again. He'll be back when dinner's ready. Hey, where's your master? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Luo Meiniang then realized that Ye Xunzhi hadn't come back with her.
Before Su Ruojin could answer, a knowing smile appeared on her face. "Hehe, was he left in Xiaoyue by his little lover? Sigh, even the iron tree of my brother has finally blossomed. Quickly, tell me about their affair, don't miss a single detail."
Seeing the burning passion for gossip in her third master's eyes, Su Ruojin wanted to laugh, but under Luo Meiniang's persistent questioning, she gave a rough answer.
After hearing this, Luo Meiniang couldn't help but sigh, "Your fifth master has really had a lot of troubles. Fortunately, it's not too late for lovers to finally get together."
Before long, the second master returned, carrying not only chickens and geese, but also ducks and various side dishes.
Yanluo, who had come with Su Ruojin, rushed forward to help and worked in the kitchen with her second master.
As expected, the fourth master returned just in time after the second master had finished cooking.
As soon as An Shao entered, he saw Su Ruojin, his expression changed, and he started sobbing again, "Little Jin'er, you're finally back. Your teacher missed you so much. Today, your teacher composed a song of longing on the back mountain. You must listen to it later."
Seeing An Shao's red and swollen eyes, Su Ruojin felt a pang of heartache and quickly stepped forward to support him. "Fourth Master, Xiao Jin missed you too. I'll definitely listen to your new song later."
"Oh, oh, good, good, my little Jin'er is the best." An Shao smiled through his tears.
In fact, Su Ruojin knew her fourth master very well. His eyes were so red and swollen because he must have been crying. It was probably because he was writing a song about longing in the back mountain today, and he got so into the role that he moved himself to tears.
How can one become a music fanatic without being obsessed?
One cannot truly understand the meaning of a song without being part of it.
After everyone finished eating, Su Ruojin told her masters everything that had happened in Xiaoyue, as well as the changes in the Su family.
Mu'an Village is quite a distance from the capital, and the masters there are detached from worldly affairs, so they are unaware of everything that has happened to the Su family.
Leaving aside Xiaoyue's matter, although there were twists and turns, it has finally been settled.
Upon hearing that the Su family had been falsely accused of treason, Luo Meiniang, being an impatient person, couldn't stand it. "Little Jin'er, should our masters step in and kill Empress Dowager Wei and her son? Then this matter will be over."
