Chapter 9: Awkwardness
Outside, it was already dark.
"Mama, give me the palace lamp. It's cold outside, so we'll just go back by ourselves. The fourth master suddenly said to the middle-aged grandmother in front.
"Slave, thank you for your compassion to the fourth elder brother!" Mama saluted, she was not polite to the fourth master, and really handed over the palace lamp to the fourth master.
Wan Yao could tell from her face that she must be familiar with the relationship with the fourth elder brother.
The fourth master walked forward with the palace lamp, and he didn't notice Wan Yao, Wan Yao was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed.
"Master, what are you doing so fast? Wait a minute! Wan Yao couldn't help but shout.
The fourth master in front of him paused, really waiting for her to follow. Wan Yao walked to the fourth master, looked at him, and saw him with a calm face, as if someone owed him money.
Is this unhappy? I heard that the fourth master has an unpredictable personality, and the rumors are true!
"Fourteen is just a little child, you don't have to please him!" The fourth master suddenly said.
Although Wan Yao muttered in her heart that the fourth master was really uncertain, she intuitively felt that her performance tonight was still good, and even Kangxi liked her appearance very much. And he has been helping himself to speak in front of Concubine De, he thought he was actually very good, but he didn't expect that as soon as he turned his face, this master turned his face, the speed of turning his face was faster than turning a book, and he actually said that he was currying favor with Fourteen!
"Fourteen is a child, and the concubine is just thinking about him because he is the younger brother of the master. Where is the flattery. The master himself didn't speak with a cold face, and he blamed the concubine! Wan Yao couldn't help but scold.
She's not a soft persimmon either. In her previous life, she came from a scholarly family, her father was an engineer, and her mother was an English teacher. Since childhood, I have also grown up in the palm of my parents' hands. So Wanyao's temperament is stronger. Although Mama Bai taught her to be obedient to her husband when she gets married, especially in the royal family, but the words of the fourth master just now are really hurtful!
"Then you can't lie, when did the master line up to buy shadow puppets for him?" The fourth master said.
"The concubine didn't say that when she saw that her master was always bored there and didn't speak." Wan Yao said. She felt that it was to mediate the relationship between the fourth master and the fourteenth, so she deliberately said that, this person actually didn't appreciate it, which really made her angry.
The fourth master was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Wanyao to crack and say such words, and he said something that he hadn't replied to.
"Yo, isn't this the fourth brother and the fourth brother and sister!" A hearty female voice sounded not far away.
Wan Yao and the fourth master turned around at the same time, and saw the third elder brother and his Fu Jin walking over together.
The third master was born handsome and gentle, with a long figure, and his head was a head taller than the fourth master, and Sanfu Jin was also born tall, standing beside him, it was also a perfect match.
"I've seen the third brother and the third sister-in-law!" The fourth master and Wan Yao said in unison.
In front of outsiders, they greet each other at the same time very tacitly, and it is always difficult for people to laugh when husband and wife quarrel.
"Hey, how did I hear what you guys were arguing about? It's not long since the wedding, what's wrong? Sanfujin said with a smile on his face, and his tone was full of "care".
The third sister-in-law heard it. Just now, my brother was just joking with Fu Jin. The fourth master immediately replied, and his face fell.
In the last life, this Sanfujin is a person who loves to tell right and wrong, if she knows it today, maybe it will be passed on to Eniang tomorrow, and it will be detrimental to Fujin's reputation at that time.
"The third sister-in-law must have heard something wrong, just now my brother-in-law was telling my grandfather that the dishes in the Eniang Palace were good, and even the emperor Ama praised it." Wan Yao looked at the face of the fourth master, and knew that he didn't like this third sister-in-law.
When the third master heard this, he said to himself Fujin: "You too, it's just a lawsuit between the husband and wife."
Seeing his master say this, Sanfu Jin had to laugh a few times awkwardly.
"Well, why don't we go back to Brother's House together?" The third sister-in-law took the initiative to approach.
The fourth master frowned slightly, still holding his paralyzed face, but he was afraid that the third sister-in-law would embarrass his Fujin, so he said to the third elder brother: "Okay." ”
Fortunately, the road is not long, and it will be there in a while. This awkward journey of peers soon came to an end.
After entering the elder brother's office, the fourth master said that he wanted to go back to the front yard, but his face was still dark. Wanyao didn't bother to say anything more, and helped the maid back to the main courtyard.
Wanyao entered her room, covered her face with a hot towel and soaked her hands with Chun Tao, and Wanyao leaned on the kang, only then did she feel comfortable.
"Fujin drink some hot tea to warm up." Dongmei handed over the red date tea.
"Fujin, master, why didn't you come back together?" Mama Tian saw from outside that Wanyao came back alone.
"Back in the front yard." Wan Yao drank the tea ceremony.
"Fujin, today is Concubine De's place, are you okay?" Mama Tian asked cautiously again, but she was muttering in her heart, why didn't this master come to the main courtyard together.
"It's good. E-Niang is also kind, even Huang Ama is still very casual, but he is the master, always with a calm face! As if someone owed him money! As soon as Wanyao remembered the hurtful words that the fourth master said, she was very angry.
"Fu Jin, Ye is your husband, how can you talk about your husband like this!" Mama Tian walked up to Wanyao and hurriedly said.
"That's what it was! Mama, I'm wronged, I finally coaxed my father-in-law and mother-in-law to be happy, and my brother-in-law was also happy, but he didn't buy it, and even said that I didn't need to please my brother-in-law! What people! Wan Yao remembered the words of the fourth master outside the Yonghe Palace, and her heart became angry.
When Mama Tian heard this, she was shocked, and said that this was a temper between the husband and wife?
"Fujin, you are going to die in a hurry, what is going on, you have made it clear to the old slave himself!" The more Mama Tian thought about it, the more anxious she became.
"It's nothing, everything is fine in Eniang's place, and I don't know which tendon he smoked, it's really hard to serve!" Wanyao couldn't help it at this moment, and complained to her grandmother.
Sure enough, these four blessings are not good, don't worry too much about yourself, it will hurt you when the time comes.
"Ouch, my good fortune, you dare to say such things." Mama Tian was anxious when she heard this, but she also understood in her heart that her little master had grown up in the palm of her hand by the old lady since she was a child, and her brothers loved her very much. If you marry someone and be a little daughter-in-law under the noses of others, there must be grievances, but what is the way, when a woman marries, isn't she all going to be wronged!
So, Mama Tian said to Wan Yao earnestly: "Fujin, you can't be the same as you used to be in the mansion." When this woman gets married, she must follow three virtues and abide by her duties. What's more, you are still the daughter-in-law of the heavenly family, so you have to be cautious in your words and deeds. ”
Wan Yao knew that Mama Tian was for her own good, so she said coquettishly: "I know, Mama, it's not just to complain to you!" ”
Mama Tian knows that the little master is a little pampered, but in fact, her brain is not stupid, and she is never confused in major matters.
"Fujin, why don't you go to the dining room to prepare some meals, and then you can invite him over for supper?" Mama Tian thought for a while and said.
If a young couple quarrels, don't stay overnight, it's best to reconcile on the spot, so as not to give birth to estrangement!
