Chu Yu got the news after the Fourth Master entered the city, and then began to prepare to welcome the Fourth Master.
The rule at this time is that when the male master of the house comes back from a trip, everyone, including the slaves who have some respect, must stand at the door to greet him.
Chu Yu thought about it and decided not to break the rules and sent someone to send a letter to a few princesses. They had to meet sooner or later, so it was better to meet them now.
She was still a little worried, and then started to dress up seriously. She couldn't let him be seduced by the goblin on his first day back.
Having said that, I couldn't help but feel excited when I was putting on makeup.
Then she shook her head and laughed at herself. A woman likes her appearance. The ancients were honest and would not deceive me.
She is really just a little woman. She doesn't have any lofty ambitions. She just wants to keep her man and love her vigorously.
Everyone in the fourth master's house was nervously preparing to welcome the male master back to the house. Over there, the fourth master had already entered the palace. The eighth master and the eighth master went to see Emperor Kangxi first, and after talking for a long time, Emperor Kangxi let him go.
There was indeed an earthquake in Taiyuan Prefecture, but it was not serious. Only a few villages were affected. Prefecture Yin also treated it well and the people had new resettlement places.
After the two of them left the Qianqing Palace, they felt a lot relieved. The trip went smoothly. But the fourth master was still a little worried after thinking about what an old farmer said before. But it was not easy to tell the emperor about this unsubstantiated matter.
Ma complained and shook her head, maybe he was overthinking.
The two went to Cining Palace to pay their respects to the Empress Dowager, and then they separated and went to their respective Erniang Palaces. They had to have dinner in the palace before returning home.
The fourth master is currently in Concubine De's palace. Also having meals with him are Concubine De, the sixth elder brother, the fifth elder brother, and the fourteenth elder brother.
It was very quiet during the meal, and there was no sound at all. It seemed that whenever Concubine De was with the fourth master, the atmosphere would be very bad. Concubine De did not speak, and the fourth master also looked at his nose and his heart.
The kids at the table were all a little afraid of the Fourth Master, but there was nothing they could do about it, because the Fourth Master was always so serious about his words.
"Fourth brother, I went to see my fourth sister-in-law a while ago. She is really nice." Wu Gege felt that the atmosphere was not good, so she asked the fourth brother to talk to her.
The Fourteenth Master also nodded, "Yes, yes, we also had barbecue together. The barbecue was delicious, and the Fourth Sister-in-law also said that she would take us to eat together another day." When Chu Yu was mentioned, the Fourteenth was very happy.
.
The Fourth Master was a little surprised. He didn’t know what this barbecue was. Just when he was about to speak, Concubine De took a chopstick of tofu and put it in a five-grid bowl. She looked at Fourteen and said, "There are no rules. You can’t eat or sleep without talking."
language."
So the Fourth Master fell silent.
The sixth elder brother lowered his head to eat.
While Fourteen was eating, he thought to himself that it would be more comfortable to eat at the Fourth Sister-in-law's place and play games, even though the Fourth Sister-in-law was a bit clumsy.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, but Fourth Master felt it was extremely boring, it was simply torture.
In the past, he might not have been unable to stay like this, because this was how he ate before.
But now he knew that a warm and comfortable hot meal and a woman were waiting for him.
She gave him some food, and she wouldn't let him eat that. Even if it was tasteless food, she felt very comfortable and comfortable around it.
Although he was full of delicacies at the moment, facing such an indifferent E Niang, he really wanted to go back home.
Crazy thoughts came to me. I wonder what happened to that little woman. Did she eat well and sleep well these days when he was away? Did she miss him?
Thinking of this, he stood up and said, "Eniang, please use it slowly. Yinzhen has finished using it, and I'll be back now." He gave me a hand, respectful but distant.
Concubine De glanced at the fourth master in surprise. He wanted to leave before she had finished using it?
This is a bit rude, he would never have done this before.
She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, but he was her son after all. She would not criticize and embarrass him harshly, and of course she would not leave him alone. She just nodded and said, "Then go back. You... ask the people around you to be careful.
Wait." She thought for a while and then warned.
"Yes, Mother, please take good care of yourself." The fourth master left these words and left without looking back. All he could think about was that little woman.
Seeing him leaving, Fourteenth put down his bowls and chopsticks and chased him. He caught up with the fourth master before he left Yonghe Palace, "Fourth brother, take this back to the fourth sister-in-law and say it is my apology."
"
As he spoke, he took out his sleeve and took out a luminous pearl. The color was good and it looked like the best.
Brother Fourteen never had the chance to send it, so he specially prepared it and waited for Fourth Master to bring it to Chu Yu when he came.
He stuffed it into Fourth Master's arms and ran back. He was also a little worried that Fourth Master would ask and he wouldn't know what to say.
The fourth master took it in his hand and looked at it, frowned, what did his Fujin want to do with this piece of shit? He wanted to throw it away, but after thinking about it, he stuffed it into his sleeve and left.
In the Yonghe Palace, the atmosphere relaxed a lot after the fourth master left. The few children were still eating, but occasionally whispered a few words, and Concubine De didn't care.
She was thinking about the conversation between the Fourteenth Master and the Fourth Master just now, and was a little confused. When did the younger son start to be so close to the elder son?
Besides, Fourth Master, not long after leaving the gate of Yonghe Palace, he met the Ninth Elder Brother and the Tenth Elder Brother.
The two of them saw Fourth Master and walked over directly, "Fourth Brother, are you back?" Ninth Brother said with a surprised look on his face.
Fourth Master "..." Nonsense, will you be able to see him if he doesn't come back?
The ninth elder brother was not annoyed when he saw that the fourth master was silent. He was used to it. His fourth brother was like this. He said with a playful smile, "Fourth brother, since you are back, when will you take your brothers to your house for dinner?"
, I haven’t had the wedding wine at Fourth Brother’s housewarming party yet.”
"Yes, fourth brother, fourth sister-in-law promised us that she would take us to eat delicious food when you come back." The tenth elder brother said, looking forward to it.
Fourth Master frowned, why did everyone tell him about Fujin when they saw him? What happened during his absence?
"Fourth brother, please speak up. Fourth sister-in-law promised to take us to barbecue again, so you can't default on the bill?" Seeing that Fourth Master was silent, the tenth elder brother touched Fourth Master's elbow and said.
"What is barbecue?" Fourth Master asked.
The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother all looked surprised, as if the fourth master was surprised that he didn't know about this.
Thinking about it, the Fourth Master actually didn't know about the food in the Fourth Master's house. Thinking of this, the Ninth Prince felt better instantly, and said with a stern look: "Barbecue is delicious, this
Fourth sister-in-law is an expert, but fourth brother has never eaten it?"
Fourth Master frowned, he really didn't know.
Chu Yu has never taken him to eat. It's too cold in winter.
Then the fourth master was too lazy to pay attention to this annoying naughty kid, walked around them and left. He couldn't wait to go back home.
The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were left behind, staring angrily. When the fourth master did not speak, no one could do anything to him.
When the fourth master was about to leave the palace, he unexpectedly met someone again. The fourth master was really confused. What was going on? Is it so difficult to go home early?
