"Hey, young lady, you still haven't figured out who I am? Xie Fujin is teaching you etiquette, and you should be grateful." Zhao Fugui said with a smile.

  In the past when he went to the front yard on business, Yu Ning had a hard time for him.

  "You scoundrel... I'm eternally grateful." Yuning tightly grasped his hand.

  "Then kneel down, leave someone to watch, when the time is up, call Xugu Niang to get up, don't make it difficult." Li Ce Fu Jin turned around and said: "Everyone go back."

  She led the way, and the crowd followed with a whoosh, each going their separate ways.

  Ye Zao walked at the end, looking deeply at Yu Ning who was kneeling down.

  This Li Ce Fu Jun is good at punishing people, kneeling...

  Hm. That's good, those two have a grudge against each other, isn't it great?

  Back in her own place, Ye Zao was in a good mood and ate two plates of dim sum: "This potstickers are really delicious today."

  "The kitchen also knows the girl's taste, two sweet dishes will be paired with two salty dishes." Ah Ling lost her smile.

  "I'm too thin, it's better to eat a bit more and get fatter." Ye Zao pinched her own waist, which was skinny with no meat.

  "This is true, it's better to eat a bit more." As a concubine, her status was too low, and even when she was ill, she might not have the opportunity to invite a doctor.

  It's better to eat more yourself.

  If Ye Zao had heard Ah Ling's inner thoughts, she would have collapsed, fortunately she didn't know.

  In the main hall, Fourth Master was talking to Fu Jin: "During the New Year's festival, Li Shi is heavily pregnant and doesn't need to enter the palace."

  "It doesn't matter if she doesn't go this time, but it's a rule set by the Li family." The lady smiled.

  Fourth Master didn't say a word, thinking to himself that if Li's words were reasonable, then no one would be in the wrong.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  Before long, Su Peisheng came in and made Li Shi kneel down to apologize to Xu Shi.

  "Let him go! No discipline deserves punishment."

  The Xus are no good, and the Lis are also careless!

  Fourth Master is now increasingly impatient with Li's family as well.

  "I originally said that this Mrs. Xu, after all, came from the front yard, and at least put up a decent table... Now it seems that it's not necessary." Madam Fu shook her head: "Just serving Master, she dared to confront Lady Li, which is quite arrogant."

  "Hmm, she's not a good one, no need to serve Master in the future." Fourth Master felt relieved hearing this, he just didn't like her.

  The empress smiled and didn't say anything else, but said to him in the palace: "Today, Her Majesty praised Hongyi, that child is really clever, at such a young age, he already knows about filial piety."

  "Hmm, Hong Ye is a good one, this mansion has fewer children." Fourth Master was unhappy again.

  The imperial concubine smiled awkwardly: "It's this servant's fault."

  Few children in the mansion, it's just that being a legitimate wife is not good... This is the rule.

  "Never mind, don't blame you, go to sleep." Fourth Master didn't have the mood to chat anymore.

  Fourth Master's wife is someone who doesn't show much emotion, but at least she has respect.

  So, I ended up sleeping here without doing anything.

  Wulana looked at the fourth master's sleeping face, her heart was filled with a hundred flavors.

  In fact, she may still be able to have another child.

  But what about Fourth Master... He came on the 15th of the first month, but rarely did that thing with her.

  She knew in her heart that she couldn't get Fourth Master's liking.

  Poor Honghui was born weak and frail, and left early, otherwise, how would she have ended up so miserable?

  Now in her twenties, she has fallen out of favor with Fourth Master and hasn't borne another child. How will she spend the rest of her days?

  A silent sigh, just hoping that in the backyard, there will be a concubine giving birth to a child, she can bring it up.

  Fourth Master slept well, while Madame Fu did not sleep all night.

  In the morning, Fourth Master left in high spirits and didn't have lunch at the main house.

  Then, for over ten days, Fourth Master didn't go near the backyard again.

  It's year-end, things are busy in the imperial court, Fourth Master is also following the Crown Prince, working day and night.

  It's been a while since I've finally returned from being busy, and I don't have the mood to enter the backyard. So I rested well in the front yard for two days.

  It was Li Ce who went to invite him, saying that Second Brother missed his mother, and only then did he go to invite Fourth Master.

  However, Fourth Master still didn't stay overnight, he just had dinner at Li Ce's place and then returned to the front yard.

  As I went further into the backyard, I unexpectedly went into the small courtyard of Wu Keke and Yin Keke.

  Wu Gege was overjoyed in his heart and hastily came out to greet him.

  But then Fourth Master bypassed her and went straight to Yin Gege's side.

  "Pay respects to Master and wish him good fortune." Yín Gé Gé knelt down and said.

  Fourth Master nodded and went into the house by himself. Yin Gege hurriedly got up to attend to him.

  Wu Gege is now both embarrassed and heartbroken, after returning home, he didn't dare come out again.

  With Yinzhen blocking in front of her, Ye Zao's attendance at night was no longer so eye-catching.

  In the front yard, Fourth Master sat in front of the desk: "Come over."

  Ye Zao walked over and said: "Greetings to you, sir."

  "Sit down."

  Ye Zao smiled sweetly: "Thank you, sir."

  Is this an invitation to dinner? Good.

  After being busy for so long, Fourth Master suddenly saw Ye Zao and felt a sense of familiarity. Her voice was sweet and made Fourth Master feel inexplicably better.

  There is a wine jug beside Fourth Master.

  Fourth Master picked it up, poured a cup, thought for a moment, and handed it to Ye Zao: "Here you go."

  "Your humble servant... can't drink."

  Fourth Master's face turned stern.

  Ye Zao didn't dare speak and hastily took it over.

  Fourth Master didn't think it was hard on her, he just felt that since she wouldn't drink again, a small cup would be fine, and this wasn't even strong liquor.

  So... Fourth Master had no idea what a "cup of reversal" was... Cough cough.

  Ye Zao hastily ate a few more bites of food before she completely lost control...

  Then something was off.

  Before getting drunk on wild jujube, I kept one thing firmly in mind: the person opposite me was Fourth Master, so I could be reckless but couldn't speak the truth.

  Fourth Master saw it, Ye Zao didn't eat anymore, propped up his head to look at him, looked at him for a moment, and smiled.

  Although he looks good when smiling, however... Fourth Master feels a chill run down his spine.

  Fourth Master's face turned stern: "Had too much to drink?"

  Ye Zao didn't say a word either, just kept smiling, laughing non-stop.

  Fourth Master furrowed his brow, for a moment he didn't know what to do.

  Su Peisheng hastily said: "Look at him, he's drunk. Why don't I have someone send him back?"

  Fourth Master glanced at Ye Zao: "Alright, stay behind, withdraw these."

  Fourth Master waved his hand.

  Su Peisheng hastily agreed and called someone in to take care of it.

  Ye Zao was supported and sat down on the soft couch. She was obedient and followed along when someone supported her, even looking up to smile at Yu.

  Yu He couldn't help but smile and thought to herself, "This little girl is quite lovable, no wonder Fourth Master dotes on her."

  After receiving the goods, Fourth Master waved his hand and told everyone to leave.

  "Come over." Fourth Master said to Ye Zao while sitting on a chair.

  Ye Zao stared blankly for a long time before spotting Fourth Master, then grinned and laughed again.

  Fourth Master also couldn't hold back and laughed along with him, his voice softening a bit: "Come over."

  Ye Zao stood up, she really wasn't walking in a straight line, but her legs were weak and she almost fell to her knees.

  Fourth Master stretched out his hand and caught her, and also for the first time, Ye Zao sat in Fourth Master's arms.
