Chapter 776: Eighth Master's Thoughts
"What does Tongtong want to do with you? I can't resist the decree of the emperor, right? This time, it was really not the master who took the initiative to ask for it. The eighth master was very helpless.
In fact, he already regretted it a little in his heart. Just now in the court, why didn't he think of excuse himself on the grounds of his body? Maybe the emperor won't let him go?
For so many years, he never seemed to know how to refuse. Whatever the emperor asks him to do, he will do! And it's the kind of work that works hard, and strives for perfection! I just hope to leave a good impression on Huang Ama and get his approval!
He never thought that as a father and son, he could also be coquettish.
But this will be decreed, and he promised so happily in the court that he has no chance to regret it. can only coax Mao Tongtong and strive for forgiveness.
"It's right if you didn't take the initiative to ask for help?" Mao Tongtong raised his eyebrows, "Master must learn to refuse!" Crying kids have candy to eat! Don't understand such a simple truth? Even if you can't refuse, you can fight for some rights! ”
Seeing Mao Tongtong teach himself to be coquettish in a serious manner, the eighth master couldn't help laughing. This is for fear that he will suffer from the emperor's loss! To put it bluntly, I'm still worried about him!
"Yes, yes, it's still smart! Why didn't you think of it! The eighth master smiled and said: "Next time, the master must pay attention next time!" ”
"Humph! Go down and let me know if you can do it again, and I will punish you for not being allowed to enter my courtyard for a month!" Mao Tongtong glanced at the eighth master.
She's not actually angry, she's distressed. The succession of bad things happened in the house this year, which made her a little suspicious.
Although he received a materialist education in modern times. But the crossing has allowed her to run into it, and naturally there are other supernatural things happening. She is also in awe of the ghosts and gods now.
"I promise! If there is a next time, you will definitely be punished! The eighth master nodded obediently.
Mao Tongtong then asked about the eighth master's expedition.
"We'll be out in five days." The eighth master said: "Before this, I have to stay in the barracks for three days, and I can accompany you for two days." ”
"In such a hurry?" Mao Tongtong frowned.
"Fighter planes cannot be delayed." Eight Masters said.
Mao Tongtong thought for a while and said, "Then the master will accompany me to the temple for the last incense." I want to ask for a peace charm for you. ”
"Okay." The eighth master nodded. He knew that this would also make Mao Tongtong feel more at ease.
After Mao Tongtong explained here, the eighth master went to Zhang's to visit the second elder brother.
Since the second elder brother was sick last time, the eighth master has visited him more often. In addition, the Zhang family occasionally brings the second elder brother to Yile Yuan to play, so the eighth master is no stranger to this son. Although it is not as loving as Tuan Tuan, it is also caring.
As soon as Zhang heard that the eighth master was coming, he became nervous. Even though she has seen the eighth master much more frequently recently than before, she is still afraid of the eighth master. It is Liu who behaves more naturally. Most of them were Liu reporting the situation of the second elder brother to the eighth master.
The second elder brother of this will already be able to climb. Zhang listened to Mao Tongtong's suggestion and also spread a large blanket on the floor of the house, so that he had more space to crawl freely and exercise the development of his hands and legs.
When the eighth master entered the house, the second elder brother happened to climb to the door. Before meeting, there was suddenly an extra pair of feet, and I couldn't help but look up, and when I saw that it was the eighth master, I immediately grinned at his small mouth with only a few teeth. The eighth master was also looking down at him, and couldn't help but be amused by his cute little appearance.
"The slave has seen Lord Belle, Lord Belle is auspicious." Zhang hurriedly saluted, and Liu was not in a hurry.
"Get up." The eighth master said casually, and then bent down and hugged the second elder brother with a longing face.
"Master will soon go to Mongolia, as short as two or three months, as long as half a year, you two have to take care of the second elder brother. If you have something, go directly to the side Fujin. The eighth master sat down with the second elder brother in his arms and said.
Zhang and Liu were stunned for a moment, the news was too sudden, and both of them didn't react. When they came back to their senses, neither of them had much turmoil in their hearts. After all, for them, the eighth master is not in the mansion, which has no impact on them. And all along, they have indeed been looking for Mao Fang Fujin for something.
"In winter, the second elder brother will be almost a year old, and he should have a name. When the master comes back from Mongolia, he will give the second elder brother a name. The eighth master said again.
"Thank you, Lord Belle!" Zhang was a little excited.
If you have to know that you can put on the jade plate after you have a name, you can be regarded as an official royal person. And it is rare to have a jade plate with a name at the age of about one.
Because it is difficult to raise children in this era, many people die at the age of seven or eight. Therefore, children under the age of one rarely have names, and they are afraid that they will not be able to support them.
The eighth master teased the second elder brother for a while, and said a few more words before leaving.
As for Guo Luoluo, who was grounded, the eighth master did not enter the courtyard to see except that the guards should be stricter and not break the rules.
In the eyes of the eighth master, Guo Luo Luo is no longer his concubine. The reason why she didn't take a leave of absence, saying that she was sick to the outside world, was just to let her occupy the position of Chang Fujin.
Because just like Guo Luo Luo said, since Guo Luo Luo has taken a leave of absence, Mao Tongtong cannot become a concubine. Instead, he will choose another successor to Fujin in the next draft. If Guo Luo Luo died, the result would be the same.
Therefore, he not only wants to keep Guo Luoluo, but also let her live well. In this way, there will be no new concubines, and Mao Tongtong will become the actual hostess of the Eighth Mansion. Even if there will be a new side blessing in the future, it will not affect Mao Tongtong's status in the mansion.
Mao Tongtong also guessed the thoughts of the eighth master. The eighth master didn't say it explicitly, and she didn't ask, but she was moved by the eighth master's maintenance of her.
In this era when three wives and four concubines are legal, it is rare for the eighth master to be able to spoil her so much and consider her so much.
The day before leaving for the expedition, Mao Tongtong called the eighth master to go to incense together.
This time, Mao Tongtong did not go to Tantuo Temple, but went to Guangji Temple, which he had been to Uncle Chen's house once before. Remembering the last time she encountered a big event there, she always felt that she had a fate with the temple in the dark, and it would be more beneficial to go there to ask for peace for the eighth master.
The eighth master didn't ask her why she chose Guangji Temple, but just accompanied her attentively. Seeing that Mao Tongtong deliberately got up early in order to ask for his safety, the eighth master's heart was moved.
What do men spoil women for? Not only because she is beautiful and empathetic, but also because of her concern.
This is the first time that the eighth master has come to Guangji Temple, looking at the temple halfway up the mountain, and there are a lot of pedestrians on the mountain road, I can't help but be a little surprised.
"The incense here is quite vigorous." The eighth master sighed.
"Well, this place is also very famous among the people of the capital. I came here to offer incense before I entered the palace. Mao Tongtong said.
