Chapter 27 Laughing Peony, Tired of Dependency on Each Other

Almost an hour later. The fourth master poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu thanked him and took it. The fourth master pulled me to stand up again and said, "Get up and rest. It's been an hour. After a while, my legs will go numb."

I stuck out my tongue. Stand up. Dangling in front of the bookshelf. Sharp-eyed glimpse of a book. Hurry up and take it down. Flipped through. He smiled and asked, "Fourth brother. Who is watching this "Peony Pavilion"?"

The fourth master frowned. Mr. Wu forced a smile on the side. I clinged to the scroll and walked to the fourth master. Singing in style: "Dream back to the warbler." Chaos' years are all over. The people set up a small courtyard and a deep court. Smoke is gone. Residual embroidery thread. Xiaolai looks at the plum pass. Remnants of makeup. You should be on the side of the 'spring' bun just by the railing. Cut constantly. The reason is also 'chaotic'. I have instructed to urge the 'flower' warbler to borrow the 'spring' to see. The cloud bun comb is also on the mirror. Luo Yi's 'desire' is more fragrant."

I used to learn drama for a while because of my hobby. Sing it again now. Although he sings badly. But the body movement is still decent. It's a pity. I was born with a bad sense of balance. One accidentally has a crooked foot. And he threw himself to the ground. The fourth master hurriedly reached out and took me into his arms. He didn't forget to tease me and said, "What. Isn't it true that Miss is going to sigh that such a good day and good times have been paid in vain?"

I'm standing firm on my own. Push away the fourth master. Pinching the orchid 'flower' finger. Dotted his forehead. Pinched his throat and said, "You old pedant. It turned out that he was also a disciple."

"Hahahaha." Mr. Wu finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. The fourth master slapped my hand away. Knock me on the forehead and say, "You kid. If you don't study well."

-----------------------------

In the lion garden of the fourth master. I was the same as when I was in the palace. I feel happy and at ease. By the side of the fourth master. I feel safe and peaceful.

After eating at noon. The fourth master led me to the small courtyard he had prepared for me. It's right next to the study. Very quiet and elegant little courtyard. The fourth master pushed open the 'door' and took my hand and walked in. He said to me, "I have prepared it for you. It's all furniture to your liking. The pillows, quilts and curtains are all in your favorite color, and the furniture is ash. You see what else you don't like. I'll ask Dietor to change it for you."

I looked at the furnishings in the house. Dressing table carved 'flowers'. Light gauze curtain of lilac 'color'. On the round table, there is an elegant silk fabric embroidered with 'flowers' on the four corners. Small and light porcelain. Even the rouge gouache prepared for me on the dressing table is in my favorite red 'color' lacquer carved box. It can be seen that the fourth master is very laborious. Thinking again. How could he have known in advance that I would definitely come. But it's just for me to come back. So just prepare carefully.

Think of it this way. I couldn't help but smile and said, "I like them all. The fourth brother bothered to prepare it for me. Naturally, I like them all."

The fourth master looked at me and smiled. Patted me on the head and said, "Just like it. You sleep for a while. Wake up in the afternoon and do whatever you want. I'm right next to the yard. Okay?"

I nodded. The fourth master turned around and walked out of the house.

Thinking that the fourth master was in the courtyard next to him. I rejoiced. Just smiled and fell asleep.

"'Jade' Ice.' Jade' ice. It's up."

I opened my eyes. What I saw was the fourth master sitting on the edge of the 'bed'. Coaxing a person.

It's a familiar scene. Seem. It's my Feather House. But when is this.

"'Jade' ice is good. It's up. You don't get up again. The fourth brother won't let your thirteenth brother bring Jia'er here."

The fourth master's voice is so gentle. This is...... Is this coaxing me?

I saw myself pouting. Sleepy-eyed was helped up by the fourth master. The fourth master wiped my face and hands for me. I also took pearl paste to even out my face.

This is my dream. Or memory.

"'Jade' ice is good. Eat." The fourth master fed me one bite at a time.

I just watched it. Watch him take care of me and coax me. Look at me lovingly and with pity.

Fourth Master. Can I hear you say the sentence I want to hear once.

I still have a chance. Tell you what is in my heart?

'You're mine.' Jade' ice. You belong to Hongu. Sooner or later. You will marry Hongu. Sooner or later, Hongu will get you. Don't worry. My little beauty. Wait until Huang Ama is dead. This palace is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. When the time comes. You're all mine. When the time comes. There's no one left to stop Hongu from taking possession of you. Hahaha."

I sat up abruptly and opened my eyes. Panting for breath to calm himself down. He shook his head vigorously. Throw the prince's disgusting face out of his head. Blinked. Make sure you're awake. I got up and wiped my face. Take the pearl paste and even the face. Only then did he shout outside: "Lan Yue."

Lan Yue pushed open the 'door' and walked in and said, "Gege. You're awake." She said. Poured me a cup of hot tea. I took a sip of tea. Ask her, "What time is it?"

"It's almost unitary time."

How did I sleep so late and get up. Sigh softly. He asked again, "What about the fourth master?" I'm going to the study."

"Hui Gege. Mr. Dai just said it. The fourth master is in his yard. When you wake up, let me go back."

I frowned and thought for a moment and said, "No need to go back. I'll just change my clothes and go straight over."

After the dream just now. At this moment. Except for the four masters. I don't want to see anyone. I just want to be quiet by his side for a while. to drive away the remaining fear.

Walk to the courtyard of the fourth master. Dai Duo was guarding the 'door' of the main house. See me coming. Hurriedly asked An to say: "Gegejian."

I smiled and asked, "Hello Mr. Fox. What about the fourth brother?"

"The fourth master is in the room. Just go in."

I nodded. Push the 'door' in. The fourth master was sitting on a recliner reading official documents. He looked up and said, "Did you wake up?"

I stuck out my tongue and said, "It's just rising."

He held out his hand and said, "Come here."

I walked over. Put your hand in the palm of his hand. The fourth master frowned slightly and asked me, "You didn't sleep well. Frowning all the time. Isn't it a nightmare?"

"I dreamed of the prince's ......"

As soon as the fourth master heard this. Frowning and taking me into his arms. I leaned on his shoulder. He whispered, "I dreamed that the prince said. Sooner or later he will get me. Wait until Huang Ama is gone. After he ascended the throne. It's all his. When the time comes. There's no one left to protect me. No one can stop him from possessing me."

The fourth master patted me on the back and said, "Silly boy. Don't be afraid. No, it won't. It's not going to be like this."

"Fourth brother. I'm still scared. I said it. I will never be a burden to you. But I'm like this. How could it not be a burden to you."

"'Jade' ice. You're not a burden to me. Never. You will be scared. This is normal. But remember. He's not going to get away with it. I will protect you. I'm not going to let him hurt you."

I nodded. Just rely on the fourth master. He patted me on the back like a child with a nightmare. I close my eyes. Smelling the faint scent of ink on his body.
