Chapter 39 Don't Try to Be Lazy
The fragrant fruit pulp is mixed with young smoothie, which melts in the mouth.
The coolness reveals the sweet taste of watermelon juice, not too cold, but it can make people feel refreshing.
Then he turned his head to look at the white porcelain bowl containing watermelon smoothie.
He thought it was just an ordinary watermelon and ice bowl, but Ruoyin would grind the ice into fine sand and pour watermelon pulp and juice on it.
But soon, he regained his composure and continued to critique and write.
Then, Ruoyin respected fourth master and herself from time to time.
At the same time, she was thinking about Li's eye drops in front of Concubine De, how she should put eye drops on fourth master and return it.
How should we talk about copying women's commandments?
However, seeing how fourth master was working hard now, it was really hard for her to speak, so she could only wait for fourth master to finish his work.
Otherwise, fourth master would probably drive her out.
So, Ruoyin waited for an hour, and the sand ice had already been eaten by her and fourth master.
But at this time, fourth master hadn't finished his work yet, so he glanced at the woman beside him from the corner of his eye.
It was found that she was sitting obediently beside her, not moving, only her head bouncing occasionally.
So fourth master turned his head to look, and saw Ruoyin was sleepy, looking like a sleepy person.
"If you're sleepy, go back and rest. I'm not done with my work." Fourth master poked Ruoyin's cheek with a pen.
Ruoyin opened his eyes in a trance, a little red.
She turned her head to look at fourth master, looking hesitant to speak.
Fourth master asked her to go back, but she hasn't mentioned anything about her yet.
Seeing this, Fourth Master said directly, "Tell me, what's the matter."
When Ruoyin heard this, he immediately changed his smile, "Master, I went to Erniang's place today, and Erniang asked me to copy the women's commandment, and then you asked me to copy the commandments last time, too. I can take what I copied last time." Give it to Er Niang?"
"What did you do? Why did Er Niang ask you to copy the women's commandment?" Fourth master asked without answering, he didn't pay attention to those little tricks.
"Well, well, please don't ask me, sir." Ruoyin said embarrassingly.
Hearing that she didn't like to talk, Fourth Master's eyes suddenly became cold, "Fu Jin, Master found that you have improved a lot recently, huh?"
Ruoyin was frightened by fourth master's sudden change of mood, but well, everything is going in the direction she thought, so I'm afraid fourth master won't ask!
She tugged on Fourth Master's sleeve, and said, "Master, calm down, I say it's not enough."
"Say!" Fourth Master didn't shake her off, but ordered sternly.
"It's like this. Er Niang called me into the palace temporarily today. She said she knew that I had a conflict with my master, and then asked me the reason. I didn't say anything, so she asked me to copy the women's commandments, saying that she wanted me to be more considerate of my grandfather. " Ruoyin said with his head down like a child who has done something wrong.
I have to say that Concubine De and Fourth Master both have a strong desire to control, I hope you know everything and everything is under control.
But Concubine De, the relationship with Fourth Master has never been salty, let alone with her daughter-in-law.
Anyway, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is difficult, she will not be so stupid as to tell Concubine De about everything.
But fourth master is different, fourth master is her man, she wants to hold the thigh of the head of the family firmly.
Fourth master pondered the meaning of Ruoyin's words, and asked lightly, "Why did you reject Erniang?"
"I just said that there will be times when the husband and wife are in trouble, so you can't bother Er Niang." Ruoyin said truthfully, and then she asked curiously: "But it's strange, we all live in Zhuangzi, and Er Niang is in the palace You all know our situation, it seems that I must get along well with my master in the future, and I must not make him angry again."
After speaking, she slowly leaned on fourth master's shoulder.
Anyway, that's enough for her to stop here, and if she talks too much, it seems that she deliberately wants to find out the person who is complaining behind her back.
For a man as deep as Si Ye's city mansion, if she could think of it, Si Ye would definitely think of it too.
Even what she didn't expect, fourth master can think of.
And she didn't mean anything else, it didn't mean that if she told fourth master, fourth master could tell Li Shi not to talk nonsense.
The mouth grows on Li Shi, and Li Shi won't listen, even if he agrees, it's useless. When it's time to sue behind his back, he still plays tricks.
But this didn't prevent her from applying eye drops in front of fourth master, so that fourth master would know that Li Shi was restless and said bad things about her and fourth master in front of Concubine De.
As expected, fourth master was silent for a while, his eyes turned slightly.
In the end, his eyes stayed on Huang Li on the desk, as if he remembered something important.
He said lightly: "Since this is the case, you should listen to Er Niang and copy the female commandment obediently. You didn't finish copying the ten times last time, so don't try to be lazy this time!"
At this moment, Ruoyin felt that he was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
She couldn't accept the fact that fourth master actually rejected her request directly.
She took a deep breath, got up and saluted with a blessed body, and said pitifully: "Fourth master is right, I will copy it carefully, if you are so busy, I won't bother you, and go back to Yilan Xiaozhu to rest first."
Fourth master looked at the woman with some fake looks, but seeing her pitiful, he remembered the last time the servants around her said that she had a pain in the spine.
So Fourth Master's heart softened, and he glanced at Huang Li again, "For the sake of your discomfort, you can take half of what you copied last time to the palace, and you have to copy the other half."
Hearing this, Ruoyin was overjoyed, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Lord, you are the best."
"Go back and have a rest. I've been a little busy recently, so don't run to the study if you have nothing to do." The fourth master gave the order to dismiss the guest lightly, but his eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him.
With half of the goal achieved, Ruoyin naturally wouldn't let it go.
She knew that fourth master was motivated and didn't like being disturbed when he was busy.
So, she obediently answered "Yes" and left.
Although she only needs to copy half of the women's precepts, she still plans to find a good time to show herself to Fourth Master, and it's best not to copy a single word.
------
Fourth master has been busy for several days.
Three days later in the afternoon, he took the initiative to ask someone to call Ruoyin.
I don't know if it's because I'm busy, or because of other things?
On this day, Ruoyin was falling asleep.
It's always hot in summer, so I can only lie down with two ice basins beside me.
Let the servants fan the wind across the ice basin, that way the cool breeze comes out, which is the most pleasant.
Grandma Liu walked to the bed with joy on her face, and called in a low voice: "Fu Jin, Eunuch Su is waiting outside, and said that Fourth Master asked you to go to Jinmo Pavilion."
When Ruoyin heard this, she opened her eyes in a daze, and after a few seconds of silence, she said, "Tell Su Peisheng to go back to Jinmo Pavilion first, and I'll go later."
It's really strange. Recently, Nanny Liu and Qiaofeng seem to have a lot of talk in their stomachs, and they don't look very happy.
Now when fourth master summoned her, it was like a happy event, and she was a little puzzled.
They weren't so anxious when fourth master didn't come to her place in the past, did they?
"Okay, I'll go back to Eunuch Su right now, old slave." Nanny Liu happily agreed.
Even Qiaofeng, who came up to change Ruoyin's clothes, laughed from ear to ear.
Ruoyin was really puzzled when he saw all these servants.
When she went to Jinmoxie, the slave didn't take her to the study, nor did she take her to Jinmoxie's resting place.
Instead, he brought her to the back mountain of Jinmo Pavilion.
If Ruoyin hadn't seen fourth master in a dark blue robe from afar, she would have wondered if she had gone to the wrong place.
It wasn't until she approached that she realized that there was actually a pond in the back mountain.
The scale is about the same size as a fish pond.
Say it is a fish pond, it is crystal clear and there is no trace of fish.
Ruoyin was curious, and walked up to the fourth master to salute: "Greetings, master, good luck."
Fourth Master glanced at her lightly and asked, "Can you swim?"
Ruoyin raised her head and blinked her eyes. She was thinking about how to answer.
After pondering for a moment, she nodded: "When I was a child, I was a landlubber. Once I fell into the lake and almost drowned. Since then, Er Niang asked the mother in the house to teach me how to swim, so I know a little bit."
This is the real story of the original owner, otherwise it would be hard for her to say that she can swim and fly?
"Then go change your clothes." Fourth Master pointed to the small closed pavilion beside him.
"But Lord, I didn't expect to swim when I came, so I didn't bring suitable clothes."
"Go change it, I prepared it for you." Fourth Master said.
"oh."
When Ruoyin arrived in the small pavilion, he found that there were really two big maids waiting inside, and what they had in their hands was water-blue cloth.
At first, Ruoyin didn't wear it on her body, so she didn't know what was going on.
When the maid changed her into aqua blue clothes, she realized that the swimsuit Fourth Master had prepared for her was no different from modern ones.
After changing, Ruoyin looked down at herself, and asked the maid in surprise, "Are you sure this is for me?"
"Back to Fujin, the fourth master only gave this to the slave, and asked the slave to wait for Fujin to replace it." The servant girl replied respectfully.
Ruoyin paused, and after taking a deep breath, she didn't hide anything, and just went out so openly.
When she went out, she saw that there were not many servants around, only maidservants in twos and threes.
And as soon as she came out, she saw fourth master jumping into the pool.
Ruoyin stood on the shore and watched as fourth master first swam facing the water with freestyle, then lay down and swam with backstroke.
After swimming around, fourth master looked at Ruoyin who was standing on the shore, and swam towards her.
When he swam up to her, he glanced at her lightly.
The water-blue dress suits her very well, making her already white skin look like fat.
However, after only one glance, he withdrew his gaze, pointed to a wooden gourd on the shore, and said, "You try holding the gourd boat first."
Ruoyin glanced at the gourd boat, which was half the size of a person next to him, it was probably equivalent to a swimming ring.
"Thank you, Lord, but I don't need this." After finishing speaking, she also jumped and swam far away with butterfly stroke.
Just when she was on the rise of swimming, she only heard fourth master say quietly: "Don't you know a little bit?"
After speaking, he swam towards her.
Ruoyin: "..."
He doesn't think she lied to him.
But she is clearly modest, do you understand?
However, seeing fourth master swimming towards her with a cold face, she didn't care about anything else, just swam forward, but she must not be caught up by him.
