Chapter 22: A false alarm

"No, it can't be! It's so easy to cross over, you won't be so unlucky! Mao Tongtong said to herself, "Is the surname Mao Gege or a concubine?" ”

She thought desperately, but couldn't think of anything.

"It can't be such a coincidence! It can't be so coincidental! Mao Tongtong comforted herself. She doesn't want to have anything to do with any prince! Just let her pass through a bland and live her own little life!

Suddenly, she remembered in her mind that she didn't know what she had seen in which book, there was a woman named Mao in the backyard of the eighth master, but she was just a concubine, not a character from the draft.

She breathed a sigh of relief, like grasping a life-saving straw, and felt that the whole person was alive!

Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, Mao Tongtong patted his chest and said, "I'm scared to death this girl!" Let's just say it's not so unlucky! It's really scared of yourself, scared to death! ”

As soon as the mood relaxed, Mao Tongtong suddenly felt hungry. She was thinking about this at noon, and she didn't know what classic dishes she ate. It's going to be a shame! I actually missed the food, just for a false alarm!

"Mao Tongtong, you are unproductive!" She couldn't help but curse herself again in her heart.

Besides, the eighth master who will appear on the flyover, he is purely out to relax.

Since Huang Ama gave him a vacation, he didn't want to stay in the palace. took Chen Guo out of the palace to breathe. I deliberately went to the most lively flyover, just to get some fireworks.

The way he looked up was also unconscious. Naturally, I didn't notice Mao Tongtong and a few people by the window. Or, even if he saw it, he wouldn't recognize Mao Tongtong. For a strange woman who was just two sides in Jiangnan, he didn't take it to heart at all.

On this day, the eighth master dangled outside the palace for a long time. Finally, I bought a book in the bookstore, and then slowly returned to the palace.

On the way to Brother's Office, the Eighth Master met the Fourth Master who was also preparing to return to Brother's Office.

"Fourth brother!" As soon as the eighth master's eyes lit up, he came to the spirit.

The fourth master looked at it with a straight face, nodded slightly, and said, "Eighth brother, is this out of the palace?" ”

"Hmm. Huang Ama made a leave of absence and walked out of the palace. The eighth master smiled and came over.

"It seems that the eighth brother has done a good job." The fourth master said. Otherwise, how can you be in the mood to go out of the palace to play.

The eighth master is just the opposite, but the errand did not go well, so he went out of the palace to relax. Hearing the fourth master say this, his expression froze, he smiled, and said, "It's decent, and it doesn't go against the meaning of Huang Ama." ”

That's what makes sense. The fourth master glanced at the eighth master, but didn't ask more.

Although the eighth child went to Jiangnan by secret order. But these adult princes have their own channels to learn the news. What is this secret decree going to do, you can guess one or two. Now listening to Lao Ba's words, it seems that there is something else hidden.

"Fourth brother, can I go to your place for dinner at night?" Since the eighth master learned to write with the fourth master when he was a child, he has a good impression of this iceberg-faced fourth brother.

Although the fourth master always looks lukewarm, the eighth master loves to come to the fourth master. He couldn't say why, but he felt that although the fourth brother was cold-faced, he was a hot-hearted person.

The fourth master paused, looked sideways at the smile on the eighth master's face, and only nodded after a while, and said, "Okay, I'll go back and talk to your fourth sister-in-law." ”

"Fourth brother, then I'll go back and put the book and come over." The eighth master was immediately happy.

Now there are only four princes who are married, and the eldest brother has now sealed Baylor, and the children have given birth to two, and he has already left the palace to build a mansion. The second elder brother is the crown prince, and he is also married, and he also has two elder brothers. Although the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother are also married, they have not yet left the palace to build a mansion, and they are still living in the elder brother's office.

Among several sisters-in-law, the fourth sister-in-law has the best temperament, which makes people feel easy to get close to. Several of their younger brothers love to deal with the fourth sister-in-law. The key is that the fourth sister-in-law can play and eat, as long as she goes to her, it is always more interesting than going elsewhere.

Seeing the cheerful back of the eighth master, the fourth master showed a little helplessness on his face. Obviously, he hasn't given the eighth a good face, why does the eighth blindly think that the two of them are very close?

Relive a life, do you want the rhythm of the opponent to become an assistant?

No matter what the fourth master thinks, the eighth master has already gone back in a hurry.

As soon as I arrived at the study and put the book, I heard a voice outside, which seemed to be the voice of the concubine Zhang.

"Go see what's going on?" The eighth master said to Chen Guo.

"Yes, my lord." Chen Guo came out of the study and saw Zhang carrying a small food box, wearing a primrose-colored flag suit, and talking to the little eunuch guarding the door with a smile on his face.

As soon as he saw Chen Guo come out, Zhang hurriedly walked over, blessed his body, and said softly: "Grandpa Chen, will the master be busy?" The slave maid gave the master a nourishing soup and wanted to give it to the master to taste. ”

"Mrs. Zhang, wait a minute, let me go back to the master first." Chen Guo took a step back.

"There's Lao Chen's father-in-law." Zhang was very polite.

Now that the eighth master is still unmarried, there are two concubines in the backyard, Zhang and Liu, and there is no woman next to him. Although the concubine is no different from the slave and the maid, in the end, it is the woman who the eighth master has been fortunate to, so Chen Guo is still polite.

After entering the study and telling the situation, Chen Guo hung his head and waited for the eighth master's orders.

After a while, he heard the eighth master say, "Let her come in." ”

"Wow!" Chen Guo went out to invite Zhang.

Zhang straightened up and followed Chen Guo into the study.

"The slave and maid greet the master, the master is auspicious." Zhang's head didn't dare to raise his head and saluted first.

"Get up." The eighth master's voice was faint, and he followed up with a question, "What soup is stewed?" ”

Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, got up and looked at the eighth master, showed a shy smile, and replied, "Stewed yam chops." Thinking that the master is working an errand abroad, he should make up for it. ”

"Well, you have a heart." The eighth master nodded.

Zhang's heart was overjoyed, so he walked to the eighth master with the food box.

Inside the food box is a small white porcelain soup cup. Probably considering that the eighth master still has to eat at night, he deliberately only served such a small cup. Drinking it can warm up the body without taking up the stomach.

Zhang put the small soup cup in front of the eighth master, handed the spoon again, and stood a little nervously.

The eighth master took a sip and another sip, and then said, "Not bad." ”

The smile on Zhang's face suddenly became even stronger.

This soup should have been stewed for a long time, the small chops melt in the mouth, and the yam is also glutinous. The soup is as white as milk. After drinking a cup, I only felt that the chill of early spring was dispelled cleanly.

The Zhang family on the side saw that the eighth master had drunk not a drop left, and his heart was even happier. Yesterday, the eighth master came back, and she and the Liu family were looking forward to it. As a result, the eighth master stayed in the front yard, but the two of them didn't see anyone.

That's why she had the courage to bring soup to the eighth master today. This master has been out for so long, and he can't come back quickly? In the backyard, she and the Liu family are two people, so they always have to take the lead!
