Fourth Master sat steadily, humming in agreement.
There were quite a few people waiting leisurely for Ye Zao to ask him something.
Ye Zao's heart was amused, but her face showed reluctance: "That... can I stay a little longer? I know you must be busy, but I... can't bear to part with you."
Fourth Master raised an eyebrow: "Ye Shi, do you know the rules?" Can such words of hesitation be spoken casually?
Ye Zao bit her lip and then lowered her head: "I know."
Unspeakable grievances and pitifulness.
Fourth Master was teased by her again, pretending to be serious: "Ye Shi, what else do you want?"
"Your humble servant... has nothing more to say, it's just... sir..."
Called out and slowly moved over.
Fourth Master thought, guessing that she wanted to pull him to ask for a favor? Fourth Master also pondered, thinking it suitable to make things difficult for her.
As a result, Ye Zao pulled Siye along, but also tiptoed and kissed Siye's cheek before quickly letting go and retreating: "I'm fine, I'll take my leave. Master should ride horses tomorrow, so you must sleep well tonight."
Fourth Master's face turned red with rage, gritting his teeth: "Ye Shi! Do you know that I want to keep you in the manor?"
Ye Zao turned back: "I know, master told me to recover from injury, I'm grateful, thank you, master." He said, bowing his body.
"Alright, off you go." Get lost, if you keep lingering around, I'll be driven mad!
Ye Zao has really left this time, with a face full of reluctance, yet he didn't say another word.
After she left, Fourth Master's face turned as black as a pot bottom.
Su Peisheng came in and felt something was wrong, Master is unhappy now.
The question is, when Ye Niang went out, she had a smile on her face.
Good grief, the world of the master is really too complicated.
Ye Zao took Ah Yuan out of the main courtyard without saying a word, after all, the little palace maid who had lit the lanterns was still in the front courtyard.
Until it was time to go back and wash up before going to bed, Ah Yuan asked: "Master, would you agree to let the young lady follow us back?"
Although the girl didn't say anything about accepting it, I'm afraid there's no chance anymore, but there's always hope.
"Sleep, what's the point of going back on such a hot day? It's better to go back later." Ye Zao smiled and closed his eyes.
A-Yuan had no choice but to hand her a quilt and go out to sleep.
A night without words.
The next morning, Fourth Master was about to leave and instructed Su Peisheng: "Tell Zhuangzi to take good care of things, Ye Shi's body is not well yet. If there's another incident like last time, have him come see me immediately."
Su Peisheng hastily responded, thinking to himself, "How could I possibly fall out of favor?" It's clear that the master is just being stubborn.
Fourth Master had finished his breakfast when he saw Fu Jin arriving: "I thought, I shouldn't delay your affairs, everything is ready now, no need to leave separately, we can set off today."
Fourth Master glanced at her and thought it wasn't bad either way.
I said so yesterday because I was worried that the ladies might not make it in time. Since there's no problem, let's go then.
"In that case, let's get up half a time later." said Fourth Master.
The empress nodded and ordered someone to go check on Li Ce and Ge Shi's side to see if they were alright, but didn't mention Ye Shi.
The concubine yesterday would never promote anyone whom the fourth master disliked.
Although nowadays it's not necessarily that Fourth Master dislikes Ye Shi, but he doesn't mention it, so Madame won't bring it up either.
However, Ye Zao is coming after all, since Fourth Master is returning to the manor, she can't not see him off.
So, they got into a situation where Li and his family were in front and back of each other.
Li looked at Ye Zao wearing a pink jacket with a few beautiful and delicate crystal hair accessories on her head, making her look like a blooming pink magnolia flower, exceptionally charming.
Wanted to make things difficult for her, but then thought it was not suitable at this time, hummed and didn't even call out, just turned around and left. Besides, Ye Shi couldn't return to the manor anyway, what's the point of rushing to collect her now?
Ye Zao got up herself and went to the front yard. In her heart, she was extremely regretful. Why didn't they punish her at this time? Li Shi had learned a lesson.
In the front yard, after everyone had paid their respects, Fourth Master couldn't help but glance over.
"Yè shì, your injury is not fully healed yet, just stay behind and rest for now." Fourth Master finally said a sentence, thinking in his heart that she was young, and he didn't want to leave her behind and have her think of something reckless.
Fourth Master thought about it and even regretted it. He wanted to temper her personality, but when would that be possible? Why give up on her?
It's just this step, Fourth Master can't get down.
If at this time, Ye Zao could say a few words with tears in her eyes, Fourth Master would rather wait for a while and take her away.
Unfortunately, Ye Zao didn't cry but instead smiled: "Thank you, master. The scenery in the village is great, it's no problem for me to stay a few more days."
Fourth Master lowered his eyes, speechless, and turned his head saying: "Let's go."
The lady wanted to say a few words, but seeing the fourth master's seemingly impatient look, she swallowed them back.
He gave Ye Zao a meaningful glance before getting on the car.
Li looked at Ye Zao with a cold smile before getting on the car.
Geng's face was calm.
Su Peisheng pulled Liu Guanshi over and whispered, "You'd better take good care of him. If you come to pick him up after a while and find that this ancestor has lost weight or is not feeling well in some way, then you can just wait for your neck to be washed clean before meeting King Yan."
Liu Guanshi's face was shocked, he thought this girl would never come back!
Su Peisheng saw him like this, and sneered: "If you don't learn a lesson from eating a loss once, you'll really lose your life! Remember, silver is not easy to earn, don't be greedy for wealth at the expense of your life. If something happens to this person, others will be fine, but you'll have to die."
Having said that, he didn't care about Liu Guanshi's shock and hastily rode his horse to chase after Fourth Master.
The horse carriage had gone far away, and Liu Guanshi smiled: "Miss, go back now, the sun is about to set, it's terribly hot."
"Thanks for your concern, Liu. I'm not afraid of the sun, let's go out and take a walk. Walking on this ridge will be fine." Ye Zao said with a smile.
"Ah, well... you few servants attend to them." Liu said, and then called a few servant women to attend to them.
Such a beautiful woman lives here, and she has left four rough servants to take care of her, which is absolutely necessary to avoid suspicion.
Otherwise I'll really die.
Ye Zao strolled leisurely on the ridge between fields. It was mid-July and the crops here were almost ripe.
Prospects look good.
"Hey girl, there's an orchard over there with peaches and apricots, plums and whatnot. Want to go take a seat?" Ah Yuan said with a smile.
"Come on, there are peach trees over there. Let's pick some peach gum and bring it back to make a soup. That stuff is really good." Ye Zao said with a smile.
A Yuan and A Ling smiled and agreed, then went with her into the forest together.
Several old women looked at each other in dismay, being abandoned by their master and still so happy, this master is really strange!
Ye Zao had a great time for the whole morning, but it wasn't until Ah Ling urged her several times that she was willing to go back. After all, she was still recovering from a serious injury and wasn't suited for this kind of play.
When she came out, she didn't know where she got her hair stuck, and her eyes were sore to the point of tears. Ye Zao helplessly rubbed them for a long time.
Back at the Zhuangzi, her eyes were still red and she was about to cry. It just so happened that several eunuchs saw it.
