Chapter 4: The Fourth Sister's Letter
As soon as I lay down on the bed, I stood up and walked to the window, and Shilan persuaded me to go back and sit, but I muttered, "Don't stop me, I want to endorse."
Then I pushed Shilan away, stood in front of the window, and shook my head while learning from the ancients, while chanting: "The Snake Catcher Said, Tang Dynasty, Liu Zongyuan...... Hee-hee...... I'm glad I still memorized it. ”
At this time, the ninth master came over with a decanting soup, and when he saw me like this, he immediately put the decoction on the table, and then went over and hugged me.
"Hey, are you Liu Zongyuan?" I watched him babble nonsense.
"Alright, let's drink the decanting soup." The ninth master couldn't stop laughing in his mouth.
"It's not you hugging me." I lay on the bed in a daze, tired, and didn't move for a while.
The ninth master came over and said, "Little girl, feed her sobering soup."
The snake catcher said, "I ran up again, stood in front of the window, pointed to the window and said, "Tang Dynasty, Liu Zongyuan." Hee-hee...... I turned my back on ...... again."
The ninth master couldn't stand it, so he stood in front of me with the sobering soup, and said as if coaxing a child, "Drink this."
"Are you Liu Zongyuan after drinking?" I asked. My eyes were wide open, and I didn't look like I was drunk at all.
"Yes, after drinking, I am Liu Zongyuan." The ninth master looked serious, but he couldn't hold back his smile.
I stared at him, and I didn't know if I understood him, so I quickly took the bowl and drank it.
Ah, it's a shame.
I couldn't help but cover my face with my hands. Although I heard Shilan sitting next to me still snickering, I covered my eyes and couldn't see her like this, so I pretended that I couldn't hear it either.
After I went back, my head was groggy, so I fell asleep first, anyway, the fourth master didn't come to me today.
After Shilan closed the door, he took the box of hairpins and smiled happily as he walked.
Suddenly, he bumped into a figure in front of him, Shilan looked up and saw that it was the fourth master, and he didn't seem to be very happy with a gloomy face.
"The Fourth Prince." Shilan said with some trepidation.
"What did you do in the Ninth Master's Mansion today?" The cold tone of the fourth prince made Shilan a little creepy.
"Sister Qiao and Jiu Ye drank today." Selan.
"Just the two of them?" Fourth Master.
"Hmm." Shilan Machinery nodded and said.
The fourth master raised his eyes and looked in the direction of my room, pondered for a while and said, "You can go."
Shilan couldn't wait, so he naturally left.
I thought that the fourth master would go in to see me, but no, he knocked over the vinegar jar in his heart at the moment, but he didn't show it.
The next morning, I was not so dizzy, and the people gave me wash water as usual, and I took a handful of water and poured it on my face, and then closed my eyes, took the towel hanging by the side, and wiped my face.
After washing up, he sat down and took out the letter from his waist: I forgot the letter from my brother.
After I opened it, I thought it was full of children's words that some children often talked about, but it was written like this: Sister Wang got married, but Xiaohai couldn't see it in person, and I deeply regretted that if Sister Wang missed me, I would send someone to pick me up, first, to relieve your lovesickness, and second, I will bring you some joy.
After reading it, I can't help but feel that this little kid is still quite numb: little kid, just say it if you want me.
I put the letter in my box. Then get up early to find the fourth master.
I thought about going and telling the fourth master to let me go home, I have been married for so long, as a "daughter", I have to go back.
I came to the study, but there was no figure of the fourth master inside: didn't the fourth master come to the study to read at this time? Don't? Still sleeping with other wives?
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little worried in my heart, accompany other wives to accompany other people's wives, anyway, this is already something I have thought of a long time ago.
I sat on the chair next to me, thinking that the fourth master would come back in a while, so I lay down there and played with the table for a while.
I don't know if it was because of the strength of the wine yesterday, but I actually fell asleep on my stomach over there.
When it was midnight, I felt a little awake from sleep, so I slowly stretched, I turned my head sideways and looked, it turned out that the fourth master was already there.
I immediately stood up and said obediently in front of the desk: "Fourth master, you are here, why don't you wake me up?"
The fourth master glanced at me and said lightly, "Did you drink very happily yesterday?"
Ah, could it be that the fourth master knocked over the vinegar jar again.
I slowly walked up to the fourth master and said, "Fourth master, are you jealous?" I leaned over to the fourth master's face and said.
The fourth master glanced at me, but it wasn't so terrifying, but he just glanced at me and turned back.
It's over, no, I can't just do that.
I immediately accompanied the smiling face again: "Fourth Master, I am friends with the Ninth Master, not to mention that he is still your younger brother, even if I am drunk, you still don't feel at ease."
"What do you say? The dignified fourth master Fujin, who is drunk in the Ninth Master's Mansion, what will others think? The fourth master said a little angrily, in my opinion, he is just a jealous little boy.
I knew that the fourth master didn't really want to be angry with me, so I stood up and said confidently: "It's because you don't have anything that you dare to do things so unscrupulously?"
"How dare you say that." The fourth master put down the book in his hand with a straight face, and prepared to walk out.
Forget it, it's better to admit your mistakes.
"Fourth master, I was wrong, I won't dare to drink so drunk next time." Seeing that I had bowed my head so meekly, the corners of the fourth master's mouth rose slightly.
The fourth master hid the joy in his heart, and faintly confided: "I'm hungry, let's go eat."
It turned out that the fourth master was not angry like this, so I happily followed the fourth master and went to have a good meal.
finally got the letter, in which Xueyi said that he had promised to give Abier a title.
I ran over and saw Abier embroidering seriously, "Wow, it's so good, why do you know so much?" ”
"I used to be a maid, of course I have to learn everything." Abiel said with a smile, feeling humble.
"Let the third master pick you up tomorrow." I changed the subject.
"Huh?" Abil was surprised.
"Don't worry, my father has agreed to accept you as his goddaughter, and plans to give you a title, so that the third master can ask the emperor to give you a side blessing name." I said happily one by one.
Abier was very grateful: "Thank you second sister, I didn't need this."
"Don't always look sorry for me, since the third master can't protect you, then I'll come." I said firmly. "Okay, dress up tomorrow, I'll notify the third master to come over." After I finished speaking, I immediately got up and left.
The next day, the third master directly took Abier back to the house, came to the center of the house, and the third master said loudly to the housekeeper: "Abier is pregnant, and I invite the doctor to ask for a pulse every day in the future, and her words in the future will be my words, so I must listen to them."
"Yes." After listening to it, all the subordinates understood that the third master's words were to announce the whole mansion that Abi'er was not an ordinary concubine, but the woman he loved the most.
The subordinates immediately retired, and Abi'er said with some happiness: "Third master, have you finally started to protect us?"
"If I don't let you stay by my side with peace of mind, I don't deserve to have you and children." The third master touched Abi'er's bun and looked at it gently.
"Tenth Master, can you take me to find Shu Qiao." The little fish chased after the tenth master.
"Why don't you go yourself." The Tenth Master walked with great strides.
"What else do you say? It's not like you let your subordinates watch and won't let me out. Xiao Yu'er pouted.
"Hee-hee...... Don't be angry, but I have something to do today, or next time? The tenth master had an idea in her heart, she was afraid that Xiao Yu'er would sue, and maybe Shu Qiao would not let Xiao Yu'er come back when the time came.
"Say next time every time." Xiao Yu'er turned around and left, he heard the tenth master say it several times, and every time it was this excuse.
The tenth master crossed his hands on his hips and smiled, as if his conspiracy had been completed.
Xiao Yu'er had to find another way, she secretly climbed to the top of the eaves of the aisle and looked around.
Suddenly, I saw the Fourteenth Master walking over from below.
Xiao Yu'er waved her hand happily: "Fourteenth master, fourteenth master, wait a minute......"
The fourteenth master looked up and saw that it was actually a little girl who was climbing down the escalator.
"Ahh As soon as the little fish was in a hurry, he slid down the slide,
The fourteenth master was quick-eyed, and he ran over at once and caught the little fish.
Then put it down: "In such a hurry, what are you doing?"
"Fourteenth Master, you can take me to see Second Sister Shu Qiao." Xiao Yu'er said expectantly.
"You are the tenth brother's person, how can I take you out casually." Although the fourteenth master said so, he still wanted to take her out in his heart, and there was a reason to go to the fourth master's mansion to play for a while.
"I have nothing to do with the tenth master, she insisted that I stay, the fourteenth master, you take me out." The little fish looked pitiful
"Interesting, it seems that if I take you away, Brother Ten will go crazy, right?" The Fourteenth Master said to himself.
Xiao Yu'er didn't care about what would happen to the tenth master, but just wanted to get out.
The fourteenth master thought it was very interesting, so he naturally agreed to Xiao Yu'er and took her out secretly.
I was sitting in the yard practicing writing, and there was a big, oh no, two big words, the word "yinyi".
Not bad.
It's pretty well written, and I feel pretty good about myself.
"Shu Qiao." The little fish ran from the lotus pond opposite.
I put down the brush, only to see the little fish running over, followed by the fourteenth master.
"Why are you running so fast?" I stood up and took her hand.
The fourteenth master in the back followed closely, and I saluted: "Fourteenth master."
The Fourteenth Master nodded.
"Shu Qiao, you don't know, that tenth master brother is too annoying." Xiao Yu'er complained.
"He's bullying you." I know that the tenth master will not bully Xiao Yu'er, there must be a reason for this.
"He has never let me out of the house, and he has been stuffing me with good food and drink, and he has made me fat." The little fish tugged at her little face.
"It seems that the tenth master is really too bad, he actually made you fat, I told him, let him stop giving you all the delicious food." I said as I watched her react.
I saw that the little fish had a kind of rush to dig a pit for themselves. I snickered in my heart.
"You two are talking and laughing, and you left me dry, is this really good?" The Fourteenth Master was snubbed by us, very uncomfortable, and sat on the stool next to him.
"Fourteenth Master, when our daughter's family talks about things, don't make up for it." I stared at him.
"Okay, you've given the eviction order, so I won't stay any longer." The Fourteenth Master felt disgusted, and stood up with an innocent face.
"Fourteenth Master go slowly." I'm really happy in my heart, the fourteenth master is quite sensible.
Seeing that the Fourteenth Master was gone, I pulled Xiao Yu'er to sit down: "Sit, you came to me, you don't want me to teach the Tenth Master a lesson for you."
"No, Shu Qiao, you said that the proprietress disappeared again except for your wedding day, you said, what does she need to be busy with for so long." Xiao Yu'er said worriedly. ”
"I don't know, I didn't talk to the fourth sister much on the day I got married, by the way, did the fourth sister say anything to you when she left?" I asked.
Xiao Yu'er thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something: "That's right," Xiao Yu'er took out a silver token with the word "Gong" from her arms: "This is what the proprietress gave me before leaving."
I took it and looked at it, and it wasn't anything special.
"The proprietress said that this must not be lost, it will be of great use in the future."
"Big use?" Since the fourth sister said so, it must be of great use, and I can't guess it now.
After chatting, I asked Xiao Yu'er to go down to rest, thinking about the congratulatory gift given by the fourth sister last time, could it be that there are also secrets she left me.
I went back to the bedroom and rummaged through the box inside, and sure enough, the fourth sister's box had been pressed to the bottom by me.
I took out the box and opened it to see that there was a letter inside.
I took out the letter to see what was actually written inside.
Shu Qiao, forgive me for disturbing your wedding day. By reading this letter, I should have died. You don't have to be too sad for me, my fate was known from the beginning, and it should be this ending. It's just an earthly thing, and I can only ask you. Xinyan has a cold temperament, attaches great importance to affection and righteousness, I am dead, don't tell her, as long as you can hide it, it will be as long as you can. Help me say I'm sorry to Xiao Yu'er, she is my own sister, but she is relatively simple, I hope you can help me take care of her, don't tell her my real relationship with her, so as not to be too sad. And you, don't get involved in palace strife anymore, things are not as simple as you think, I hope you can live your peaceful life well. One last private matter, give the other envelope to your brother Wang.
In the whole letter, I didn't read where the fourth sister said she was going, and I didn't even mention asking me to find her a place to bury after death, I was very sad, and the tears in my eyes could no longer stop.
I slowly picked up another envelope in the box, which seemed to have a piece of stationery and round hardware.
Since the fourth sister didn't let me sue anyone, there must be a reason, but it's just that it's really uncomfortable to hold it in my heart alone.
At night, I leaned on the head of my bed and didn't even eat dinner.
The fourth master walked in and looked at my red and swollen eyes from crying, and his heart was also very distressed.
"What's wrong? The servant said, "You didn't eat a bite of dinner." The fourth master sat at the head of my bed and asked with concern.
I looked at him, endured the sadness in my heart, and said, "Fourth master, I want to go home."
"Fool, I don't think I need to cry like this. I'll just say yes. The fourth master held my hand, thinking that I must be a big cat face at this moment and snickered.
"Uh-huh." I cried even harder, as if I was just waiting for the fourth master to promise to let me go home.
However, only I know that I am only saying this to find another excuse to hide it from you.
A few days later, the fourth master had already arranged a team for me to go home, and I didn't want the fourth master to follow the suspicion, so I set off alone.
The little fish is happily swinging on one side and eating pastries at the same time.
The fourth master walked over slowly, and the little fish jumped down, and said in a panic: "The fourth prince."
"Don't be nervous," the fourth master said lightly: "I just want to ask you, what did you say to Shu Qiao a few days ago."
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I said that I miss the boss lady, and I want to ask Shu Qiao if there is a way to find her." Xiao Yu'er said simply, because I didn't tell her anything at all.
The fourth master thought for a while and said, "Shu Qiao asked me to take good care of you, if you need anything in the house, just tell the housekeeper directly."
"Thank you, Fourth Prince." Xiao Yu'er said happily. (To be continued.) )
