Shuixiu and others were all very curious as to who this newcomer Gege was. First he moved into Jingsi Residence as Gege, and then he was rewarded by many blessings. It was really a great honor.
After everything had been tidied up, it was already nightfall. Ling Ruo had dinner with Shuixiu and Shuiyue, and sat there for a while. Xiaoluzi walked in, rubbing his hands and saying with great effort: "Girl...girl, are you ready?"
...early...earlier...rest earlier
"Hey, my servant is...waiting...waiting outside. If you have anything to do...just call...call the slave, guarantee...guaranteed...he will be there soon." Tonight, he and Shuiyue were on duty, and each of them was responsible for guarding.
In the yard, one person is responsible for taking care of Ling Ruo's daily life at night.
There was no such rule in Lanyueju before, but now living alone can no longer be as casual as before. Ling Ruo put down the half-drunk almond tea and thought about it and said to Mo Yu: "Go get an old quilt."
Then Wen Yan said to Xiao Luzi: "Although it is almost spring now, the spring is cold and it is still very cold at night and it is easy to get sick from the cold. You can wrap yourself in a quilt, that will be better."
While talking, Mo Yu had already taken out a half-old thick cotton quilt and handed it to Xiao Luzi, who was still in a daze. When he didn't answer, he urged: "It's very heavy, so hurry up and take it."
Xiaoluzi then took over the quilt as if he had just woken up from a dream. Before coming to Jingsiju, he had worked as a servant for several masters. Because of his stuttering, he received countless looks from his eyes, and everyone greeted him.
Go, never give a good look, sometimes speak slower
He also had to be scolded and beaten, and he suffered countless injuries. If it weren't for the clever little Changzi who worked with him, who often helped and said kind words, he might not have been able to survive now. It was not easy for him to stay pure and think about his job.
Two years later, I didn’t expect the master to come so soon.
Although she was just a princess, looking at today's attitude, she could not be underestimated. He was extremely afraid that this girl would be like the previous masters who thought he was stuttering and speaking unkindly, so they would either expel him or beat him or scold him.
, I am very nervous all day long, can I
If you don't want to talk, try not to say anything. He thought that he didn't see him at all in the girl's eyes. He never thought that she not only remembered him but also cared about him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shed tears with red eyes. He quickly wiped the tears with his sleeve and choked.
: "Thank you girl, thank you girl."
Xiao Changzi has known him for several years, and has the deepest feelings for him. He can also understand his mood at the moment best. He knows that he is honest and honest, but he has a problem with fawning. He has suffered a lot for this. No one has ever treated him well except him.
Xiaoluzi, this is his first time, no wonder he is so excited.
Ling Ruo stood up, walked across the flat bluestone bricks to the path, looked at him deeply and said, "I don't care if you stutter, I only care if you are loyal to me. As long as you do your job well, I won't."
I will treat you badly."
"Slave...Slave...must...must..." Her words made Xiao Luzi extremely excited. The more excited he became, the more speechless he became. He was so anxious that he was covered in sweat. Mo Yu couldn't bear to see it and said for him:
"Okay, okay, I know you will be loyal and courageous and serve the girl. If you have something to say in the future, please speak slowly and don't be in a hurry. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will be too exhausted to say anything."
Xiao Luzi smiled sheepishly and took the quilt out. The other three looked at Ling Ruo and their eyes suddenly changed. The original resistance to the new master was slowly disappearing. Perhaps, this master was worthy of their waiting and following.
"You all go out, Mo Yu too, I want to be alone." Ling Ruo sat back in the chair, closed her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows, waving her hands slightly tiredly. She has been busy dealing with all the Fujins today.
The person who was sent to reward me had hardly stopped to rest. Now when he calmed down, he felt his body was so weak that he didn't even want to say anything.
After less than a moment of silence, footsteps were heard coming in. Ling Ruo closed her eyes and said slightly unhappy: "Didn't I tell you not to come in? Get out!"
After waiting for a long time, no one left. Ling Ruo became more and more unhappy, secretly wondering who was so ignorant of the rules. She opened her eyes and was about to be scolded. Unexpectedly, she saw Yinzhen with a calm face. She jumped up on the spot and hurriedly
He stood up straight, waved his handkerchief and saluted, "I didn't know that it was the Fourth Master who arrived. I'll ask the Fourth Master to punish me for any rudeness."
"It's no wonder if you don't know, get up." A cool male voice sounded in Ling Ruo's ears, but when she lowered her eyes, she could see a pair of black thousand-layer-soled boots standing in front of her.
Ling Ruo breathed a sigh of relief and ordered Shuiyue to make tea and serve it to Yinzhen in person. He said with a hint of joking: "I don't know how to predict the future. I didn't know that the Fourth Master would come over so late, so I didn't prepare any farewells."
Yes, I can only invite Fourth Master to tea."
"I just came back from Lao Shisan's place. I heard Gao Fu say that Jingsi Residence has been tidied up and you have moved in, so I thought I would come and have a look. How about it? Do you still like it?" Yinzhen asked casually as he took a sip of tea.
"The fourth master rewards me generously, and I naturally like it. But I live alone in the same house as a concubine, so I'm afraid it will attract criticism." At this time, a small crack was opened in the south window, and the night breeze came slowly, fluttering their clothes.
The yellow magnolias in the amphorae vases under the corners and windows are like butterflies looking for flowers.
Yinzhen waved his hand and said: "It's just a trivial matter, there's nothing to criticize. Besides, Huang Ama once said that I should treat you kindly. According to his intention, I should have granted you the title of Concubine Fujincai. It's more justifiable to live in Jingsiju like this."
However, the Ye family was banned a few days ago and it is not appropriate to ban it again, so we have to do this and look for opportunities in the future."
"Yes." Ling Ruo was slightly touched. After meeting her for a while, Kangxi remembered her and specifically asked his fourth brother to treat her kindly. This was very rare for an emperor. As he was thinking about it, he suddenly raised a hand.
Lifting her chin, Yinzhen looked at her with a rare smile but not a smile and said, "What about you, my princess, are you ready?"
Here it comes! Ling Ruo's heart beat violently because of these words, her face quickly turned red and her ears were burning, and she said in a voice like a mosquito: "I... I'm ready."
If there was a hole in the ground, she would want to crawl into it. She has never said such shameful words in her life.
Her expression was like that of a strong man breaking off his wrist, which made Yinzhen smile. He let go of his hand and said, "I'm just talking casually, you don't have to take it seriously."
Ling Ruo didn't know how much courage she mustered up to say what she just said. She didn't expect that Yinzhen was actually joking. She was immediately ashamed and angry, mixed with some disappointment that she didn't even understand. She turned around and ignored her.
he.
The shy posture of the little daughter made Yinzhen startled. The wind blew his long hair away and confused his eyes. For a moment, he couldn't tell who was standing in front of him.
How wonderful it would be if you were Meier...
Sighing silently in his heart, he took her weak and boneless hand despite her objections and stood in the courtyard. He looked up and saw that the starry sky was as deep and vast as ever, and even with all his eyesight, he could not see where the edge was.
"Tomorrow, my Thirteenth Brother and I will accompany Emperor Ama on a tour to the south of the capital. We will be away from the capital for a long time. We will have to wait until I come back to let you, Ama, enter the palace." He looked at him.
Xingkong said calmly.
"I'm not in a hurry, but the fourth master is alone outside, so be careful." For some reason, when he heard that Yinzhen was about to leave, his heart trembled slightly, and he actually felt a little reluctant to leave.
"I will." Yinzhen nodded, and a little warmth appeared in his usually cold eyes, "If you have anything to do, you can go to Nian. She is taking care of everything in the house now, and it is in good order. As for
On the other side of Fujin's side, she has always been in poor health and has to discipline Honghui, so she is inevitably not in good spirits. You just need to go over and say hello when you have time."
"I know." Ling Ruo replied meekly to cover up the turmoil in her heart. Has the Nian family already made the decision in the house? She has only been in the house for a few days, and she has already stabilized the Li family, who is much older than her.
, what a good means.
Yinzhen nodded and said, "It's very late. You should rest early. It's time for me to leave."
"Fourth Master, please wait." Ling Ruo suddenly remembered something, called Yinzhen and hurriedly took out a triangular yellow amulet from the house, "This is the amulet sent by the Amato people a few days ago. They said they went to the temple specially.
If you come here to seek help, you can keep people safe. The fourth master is going to the south on a long journey and I don’t know when he will turn back, so take it with you."
Yinzhen never believed in these things, but staring at her sincere and concerned eyes, he could not say any words of rejection anyway. He silently put the amulet in his arms, and suddenly remembered that many years ago, there was a woman with a gentle and kind smile.
Smile hung the triangle charm strung with yellow silk thread around his neck.
Since she passed away, no one has cared about him anymore. Even if he has a distinguished status, no one cares about him anymore...
