Because Mrs. Li had a child, she had more people serving her than the others.
But if she takes two people with her every time she goes out, there will be no one to sit and watch over her yard.
"You mean you feel there are not enough servants serving in the courtyard?" The Fourth Master said with a slightly raised eyebrow.
Wen Mianmian: Isn’t it just that there are too few people?
But she couldn't say that, after all, the princess had stipulated that there could only be three servants, and she would only choose more servants to serve her when she was pregnant or had a child.
"Not less, not less, just right." Wen Mianmian waved her hand and smiled.
Wen Mianmian didn't want to continue this topic, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, has the master had dinner yet?"
"I've eaten." He came here after having dinner.
"oh."
"Why are you still looking at these picture books?" The Fourth Master pointed at the notebook beside her.
Wen Mianmian lowered her head and quickly hid the notebook under the quilt with a guilty conscience.
He raised his head and smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, I'm just bored, so I'm just watching to kill time."
"Read less of these in the future. If you want to read, there are many books in my study. I can show you a few." There are quite a few books and miscellaneous notes in his study. Reading those is better than reading picture books.
Wen Mianmian's eyes lit up after hearing this. "Really, Master? Do you have any books suitable for me?"
These picture books were bought from outside by Wang An and others when they went out of the house to buy things.
After reading so much, it's just so-so. It would be great if the master had a book for me to read.
"There are a lot. If you want to read them, I'll ask Su Peisheng to find some suitable ones tomorrow. Don't just read these picture books all day long."
Seeing that she liked it very much, the Fourth Master felt a little happy.
"Thank you, master. You are so kind to me." Wen Mianmian hugged the Fourth Master's arms with both hands and said with a sweet smile.
"You are so unruly. Sit still. Don't cry if your legs are accidentally stepped on." The Fourth Master's tone couldn't help but carry a hint of pampering.
Compared to before, he didn't look as majestic as before. Wen Mianmian actually felt that the Fourth Master was easier to get along with.
Wen Mianmian stuck out her tongue playfully, "I understand, and after using the medicine the master gave me, my legs are much better now."
The Fourth Master looked at her suspiciously, "Really?"
Wen Mianmian nodded with certainty.
"Then let me see how you've recovered." As he said that, the Fourth Master wanted to lift the quilt to take a look.
Wen Mianmian quickly stopped the Fourth Master's actions, "Master, my knees are all bruised and purple, it's so ugly, you'd better not look at it."
"What's the big deal? I personally changed your clothes yesterday. I've already seen how badly you're injured."
Seeing the little princess's face flushed, the Fourth Master came over to tease her.
"Besides, I've never seen any part of your body. It's just your leg that's injured. Don't worry, I won't despise you."
Wen Mianmian was so moved by what she said that she wanted to crawl under the quilt.
When did the Fourth Master say something so explicit?
Is this still the Fourth Master she knows?
In the end, Wen Mianmian couldn't resist the Fourth Master's determination to see it.
She rolled up her trouser legs and took a look.
Although my knee is still bruised, it is obviously lighter than yesterday and not as swollen.
I believe it will be healed in a few days.
"It's indeed gotten a lot better. You just need to take good care of yourself these few days. Try not to get out of bed and walk around, so as not to aggravate the wound." As he said this, the Fourth Master gently helped her roll down her trouser legs and covered her with the quilt again.
"Thank you, Master."
The two chatted here for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, the Fourth Master decided to go back to the front yard.
After all, she was injured and it was not convenient for him to stay here.
"Okay, it's getting late, I have to go back to the front yard." The Fourth Master patted Wen Mianmian's hand and was about to get up.
Unexpectedly, Wen Mianmian grabbed his hand before he could react.
Wen Mianmian quickly leaned over and kissed the Fourth Master on the cheek, touching him deeply.
Such proactive behavior made the Fourth Master stunned.
After she left, she lowered her head shyly, stirring the quilt involuntarily with her hands, not daring to look up at her master.
Seeing her like this, the Fourth Master was both angry and amused.
His slender hands rubbed her disheveled head and he scolded her in a low voice: "You are unruly. Didn't I just tell you not to move around?"
"The slave's legs haven't moved again."
The sound was as thin as a mosquito, but in this quiet inner room, the Fourth Master could still hear it clearly.
Then he leaned close to her ear and said, "When you get better, thank me properly."
Wen Mianmian's cheeks instantly flushed.
Seeing her like this, the Fourth Master rubbed Wen Mianmian's head lovingly and said, "I'm leaving now. Take good care of your injuries and I'll come back to see you soon."
Then the Fourth Master left in a very good mood.
The next day, Su Peisheng asked someone to bring over a lot of miscellaneous books.
Then the Fourth Master did not enter the backyard for several days.
Although Li really wanted her master to come and see her, she knew that her master would not want to be disturbed when he was very busy.
So even if she wanted to ask her master to come see her, she didn't dare to disturb him in the front yard.
However, she had sent tonic soup over these days, but she had never met the Fourth Master once, and she always gave the soup to Su Peisheng.
As to whether the master drank it or not, it is unknown.
Wen Mianmian's injury has almost healed in the past few days.
Knowing that Shancha had been beaten with ten boards, Wen Mianmian still felt sorry for her.
He asked Shannai to bring her a bottle of medicine given by the Fourth Master, and told her to take good care of herself for the next two days, after all, it was he who had implicated her.
Fortunately, the injury was only ten boards and was not too serious. He has almost recovered now.
After receiving the medicine, Shan Cha shed tears of gratitude. She deserved to be punished by her master, but the princess was so good to her.
This is the best medicine for wounds. I didn't expect that the princess would give it to me.
She blamed herself a little. If she had been faster, perhaps Gege would not have fallen into the water. Fortunately, Gege was not in trouble, otherwise she would have felt guilty for the rest of her life.
This was the best master she had ever met. He never beat or scolded his servants, and he would even reward them with delicious food.
She swore that she would be loyal to the princess and would never let her down for taking care of her.
"Don't cry. The princess is so good to us. Take good care of her in the future and don't let what happened before happen again." Shannai persuaded.
Shancha smiled and nodded, and said with determination: "Well, I will serve Gege well in the future and will never let this happen again."
"Well, let me apply the medicine on you first so that you can get better quickly." Shannai opened the medicine bottle and carefully applied it to the wound.
Shancha is lucky here.
I heard that the servant beside Wu was beaten with dozens of boards and fainted before the beating was over.
But even if he fainted, he still had to be beaten, and it would only count if he finished the beating.
After the beating, she was sent to the farm.
As for whether he is dead or alive, I don’t know.
