The corners of the fourth master's robe had disappeared at the door, and the disappointment in Li's eyes gradually turned into resentment.

"Master, why does the slave think that Lord Belle is a little unhappy just now." Onyx involuntarily said behind Lee's back.

Li's face was suddenly full of anger, and he turned around and stared at Onyx and said, "I still want you to remind me!" ”

Onyx hurriedly lowered his head, knelt down in panic and said, "Master, stop your anger!" The slave is too talkative! ”

With that, she slapped herself to herself.

The rest of the room was silent at the moment, for fear that the slightest movement would attract Li's attention.

At that time, Wan Ying was "having dinner" with the servants who were serving Ming Yuexuan.

Mama Xie and Mrs. Wang ate by themselves, and the two maids who were waiting outside also ate silently, unlike Chunhua and Luguo, who still said a few words to Wan Ying from time to time.

It's no wonder that they usually don't touch the back room, and they don't serve in front of their masters, so they naturally have scruples in their hearts at this moment.

"Does anyone want to hear a story?" Wan Ying suddenly raised her voice.

She went to see them from time to time, and when she saw that they never meant to communicate with her, she decided to take the initiative to tempt them.

"Gege can tell stories?" Qingya couldn't help but say.

She is the youngest, and she usually acts with the eyes of spring flowers and green fruits. Seeing the two of them laughing casually in front of Wan Ying, he became a little bolder.

"I know how to tell stories! Do you want to hear it? Wan Ying smiled.

"Yes!" The three girls said in unison, and although the few people waiting outside did not shout, they obviously showed a look on their faces that they were willing to listen.

"Okay, then I'll tell you a story." Wan Ying said, "Once upon a time, there was a pony carrying a few bags of salt across the river. Accidentally, it fell into the river. When the pony gets up and prepares to cross the river, he finds that the weight on his back is much lighter. Soon after, the pony crossed the river again with his stuff on his back. But this time, it was carrying cotton. When the pony walks to the middle of the river, it remembers the last time and decides to do something. Do you know what the pony has decided to do? ”

Everyone stopped playing at this time, and when they heard this, they were all anxious to know what the pony wanted to do.

Everyone shook their heads in unison this time, looked at Wan Ying, and waited for her to reveal the answer.

The pony remembered the last time he was carrying salt, and when he fell into the river, the weight on his back was lighter. So it slipped on purpose and fell into the river. Then, it slowly soaked in the river for a while before getting up. What happened to the results? Wan Ying smiled.

"As a result, the pony will drown. Because cotton absorbs water! Luguo said loudly.

Wan Ying smiled and nodded at her, swept everyone, and sure enough, everyone was silent, as if they were all thinking about the meaning of this story.

"Ahem!"

At this moment, there was a coughing sound outside the door!

Everyone immediately became nervous, because this coughing sound was none other than Su Peisheng, the personal eunuch beside the fourth master.

Didn't the fourth master go to Li Fangfujin for lunch, why did he come over?

"Concubine, please be happy with Lord Belle!" Wan Ying hurriedly got up and went to the door to greet the fourth master.

The fourth master stood at the door, his face cold.

Just now, when he heard the story told by Xiao Gege, he hummed in his heart: he was upset about her, she was good, and she was still in the mood to tell stories to her subordinates here. In order to protect her, in order to make her better, he has to "deal with" the Li family, the Su family, etc. from time to time.

"I'm hungry!" The fourth master raised his feet and walked into the house.

Chunhua, Luguo and others were so frightened at the moment that they didn't know how to place their hands and feet.

Wan Ying shook hands silently, hurriedly followed, glanced at Chunhua and the others, and asked them to quickly collect the "leftovers and cold burning" on the table.

Everyone immediately took it away with their hands and feet, and they all held their breath and did not dare to make a sound. In the end, only spring flowers and green fruits were left in the corner of the house, and everyone else naturally went out.

The two of them sat like this, and the air pressure in the room suddenly dropped a lot.

Wan Ying didn't know why this master came to her with a tiger face, obviously she was in a good mood last night, but her temperament was unpredictable!

"The concubine let them eat together because she wanted them to do their best to do their duty." Wan Ying carefully looked at the fourth master's expression and "explained".

She thought that the fourth master was unhappy when she saw her eating with a group of subordinates, and it was not in order!

"You're quite good at telling stories, and you'll tell you one too?" The fourth master still had a cold face, didn't answer Wan Ying's words, and said suddenly.

Yes?!

Storytelling again?

In fact, the story that Wan Ying just told Chunhua and them is one of the fables. She wants them to think about their own situation, not to be like the pony in the story, to be self-contained and conservative, to seek truth from facts, to see their own environment, and to work together to get things done.

"Then the concubine will tell the master a joke!" Wan Ying can start to search her intestines and scrape her stomach, she doesn't dare to tell fables in front of the fourth master, it is all full of "educational significance".

"Oh? My little Gege can also tell jokes, I would like to hear them in detail! The fourth master stared at Wan Yingdao, like a lion looking at an antelope: his eyes were full of pity, and his eyes were full of possession.

Wan Ying felt a little unhappy in her heart, but she knew that she couldn't make this master unhappy, and she had to do her duty as a concubine obediently, so she said a joke that she remembered in her head:

"Once upon a time, there was an old Xiucai, who was very pedantic, and didn't do anything all day long, only knew how to drag a few lines of poetry. His wife was helpless, and the neighbors persuaded him to do something else to support the family. But Lao Xiucai insisted that there was a golden house in the book. The wife had to help people pulp and wash clothes, sew and mend, and weave cloth to feed the family. Later, his wife gave birth to a son, Lao Xiucai was very happy, named his son age, a year later, his wife gave birth to another son, he named his second son Xuewen, and after a few years, his wife gave birth to another son, and the neighbors laughed at him for being a lot older, so let his wife give birth to a son, and he did not support the family. So Lao Xiu named his third son Joke. More than ten years later, one day Lao Xiucai asked his three sons to go up the mountain to chop wood, and when his sons came home, Lao Xiucai asked his wife how the sons were chopping? The wife replied, "I am a lot older, I have no knowledge at all, but there are a lot of jokes....."

Su Peisheng secretly glanced at Wan Ying, and said in his heart: This Dong Gege has changed sex? Not only is it bold, but it can also tell such a story......

"This Xiucai's wife is a bit interesting, and she can still scold him like this!" The fourth master raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
