Ni Chuhe just handed Xiao Hei to Liu Ting, cleaned his hands, and prepared to read a book for a while.

There are a lot of books here and they are quite miscellaneous, if there is a fourth master, Ni Chuhe will inevitably read the books he likes, so he took a book of Xu Xiake's travels to read.

It was getting dark, the moonlight was hazy, and the shadows of the trees were swaying.

I thought that the fourth master would still not come over tonight, but I didn't expect that when I first arrived, I heard a sound of saying hello from outside the house.

Nichuhe smiled and got up to greet him.

This fourth master kept his promise, and he really came according to the previous agreement.

Ni Chuhe smiled and curtsy, "Greetings to the master." ”

The fourth master was wearing a bamboo-blue robe, with a long body, and glanced at her, seeing that she had a smile on her face and starlight in her eyes, he seemed to be very happy, and his heart softened a little.

"Reading again?" The fourth master caught a glimpse of the book on the table, and his heart was clear.

Ni Chuhe smiled and poured him a cup of tea personally, "The concubine thought that the master would not come today." ”

The fourth master didn't seem to hear the resentment in her words, picked up the Xu Xiake travelogue and opened it and looked at it, his tone was light, "I won't forget what I promised you, have you practiced chess these days?" ”

Ni Chuhe said in a pleasant tone: "There is some progress, you can try it." ”

In his heart, he wondered if he was here to see her, or just to fulfill his promise?

If it's just the latter, she'll need to work harder.

The fourth master didn't say anything else, let people take out the chessboard and chess pieces, and the two played against each other again.

Although Nichuhe still lost this time, at least he took a few more steps, which can be regarded as progress.

The fourth master did not hesitate to praise, "There is indeed some progress, it seems that I haven't been lazy these days." ”

Ni Chuhe said secretly, that is, if you don't learn this, how can you let him stay for a while and cultivate feelings?

The fourth master is an ancient, or a prince, since the calligraphy is good, he must also like to play chess.

As long as you do what you like, you don't have to worry about the two people not being close.

Ni Chuhe said with a smile: "The master still intends to give in, the concubine still has a lot to improve, as long as the master does not dislike the concubine's annoyance, the concubine is willing to follow the master to study hard." ”

The fourth master raised his eyes and looked at her seriously, "You like to play chess so much?" ”

Facing his inquiring gaze, Ni Chuhe calmly greeted him, "Don't hide it, in the past, at home, Ama didn't have much time to teach the concubine to play chess, and the concubine would only follow her brother outside to ride horses and shoot arrows all day long.

Now that the concubine has nothing to do in this courtyard, she wants to learn more things to pass the time.

Besides, the concubine body does like to play chess, and from playing chess, the concubine body can learn a lot of things. ”

The fourth master's face softened a lot, and he bowed slightly, "It's good that you can think like this." ”

After a while, he asked, "You and Buck seem to be on good terms?" ”

Buck seems to be Nichuhe's older brother.

Ni Chuhe nodded, "The concubine has lost her mother since she was a child, except for Amma, she is the closest to her brother, and my brother loves me very much." ”

Speaking of which, she was in a bit of a trance.

Since she came to this world, she has not been wronged except for her parents who can't see the next generation, which is all given to her by Ama and her brother in this life.

Because of this, she doesn't have much discomfort in coming to a strange place.

The fourth master was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "What do you need to bring to Buck?" ”

Ni Chuhe was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what he meant, and shook his head with a smile, "Thank you, no need, the concubine knows that her brother is very good, and my brother also knows that the concubine is very good. ”

My brother used to be the companion of the fourth master, and it was natural for him to be acquainted.

It was easy for the fourth master to help her pass the word to her brother, but Ni Chuhe didn't want to do it.

has already married into Baylor Mansion, and it is not a good thing to think too much about his mother's family, even if the fourth master doesn't mind now, he will inevitably have a grudge in the future.

The fourth master didn't say more, but his eyes were more gentle when he looked at her, "Don't worry, the master will treat you well." ”

Ni Chuhe smiled slightly, "The concubine believes in the master." ”

has a relationship with her brother, of course the fourth master will not treat her badly, but she wants more than this.

After playing chess, the fourth master did not stay, but only told her to rest well, and left.

Nichuhe sat at the table, thoughtful.

For some reason, she always felt that although the fourth master was very good to her, there was always something separated by a layer.

It's like getting close two times before, the fourth master is very enthusiastic, and when he sees him again today, he suddenly restrains a lot, as if he deliberately kept a distance from her.

It was as if he had only come here to play these games with her, and when the chess was finished, there was no need to stay.

That doesn't seem like a good thing.

Nichuhe thought, I hope she was too worried.

Since he is his woman, and he doesn't hate her, it shouldn't be like that.

The fourth master stayed at the Song family or the Yun family for several days, whether it was the Li family or Ni Chuhe, the fourth master did not stay overnight.

The Song family is an old man in the house, and it is normal for the fourth master to favor him, but this Yun family suddenly became favored, but it made everyone smell some wind direction.

One day, Ni Chuhe went to the garden to relax, and by chance he ran into the Yun family, and saw that the Yun family's face was more ruddy than the one he had seen a few days ago, and there was less cowardice between his eyebrows and eyes, and there was a little more amorous style.

The Yun clan saluted her respectfully, and his voice was crisp and tactful, "The slave asks for peace to Fang Fujin." ”

Ni Chuhe said goodbye, and seeing that she was followed by two maids, the fourth master secretly said that he really favored this Yun clan.

But he didn't say much to her, and went to the gazebo to rest.

The magpie said indignantly: "This Yun clan is just a fox, and he is even more annoying than Li Gege. ”

Nichuhe sprinkled fish food into the pond and said, "What does this have to do with her?" Lord Belle wants to spoil her, can she refuse? ”

The magpie was speechless, but his face was still bad.

Nichuhe ignored her.

She understands very well in her heart that most of the things that a man spoils a woman have nothing to do with women, it is just that men like it themselves.

Even if a woman does something to seduce, it must be a man's willingness to cooperate.

Besides, the Yun family is indeed an outstanding person, and that cowardice is the most irresistible thing for men.

However, the Yun family is just a concubine in the end, and unlike the Li family, it is Eni Chuhe who is not worried.

The fourth master still went to her every few days to play chess, and left after playing chess, and gradually Ni Chuhe understood that he was not even as good as the Yun family.

Maybe she felt too good about herself, and she always thought that the fourth master couldn't refuse a woman who belonged to him.

But in fact, he just refused, he used chess to maintain her favor and status, but he refused to stay overnight, even if he stayed occasionally, he just slept under the quilt, and there was no distraction at all.

Nichuhe tried to take the initiative, but to no avail.

What went wrong?

In June, Kangxi led several princes to patrol the outside of the country, the prince stayed in Beijing to supervise the country, and the fourth master assisted from the side.

Shortly after Hongyu's first birthday, Song suddenly fainted, and Lang Zhong entered the house to check the pulse, and then the good news came.

The Song family is happy.
