Chapter One Thousand and Fifty-Four

If it weren't for the fourth master suddenly coming to the main courtyard from the study, Erfu wouldn't have been able to get up!

She rubbed the bun that rolled into a bird's nest, took off the crooked hairpins and other hair accessories, and gently smoothed the long hair that was a little messy, and then lifted the bed curtain, and showed a quiet and gentle smile to the fourth master who was full of concern.

"I heard Shilan, who was waiting in front of you, say that you have been stuffy in the room all afternoon, are you not feeling well?" the fourth master reached out and touched Erfu's head, and asked softly.

Hearing this, Erfu smiled and shook her head, she didn't want to continue drinking the medicinal soup of those bitter deaths.

But obviously, her somewhat false smile was to fool the fourth master with full eyesight, he waved his hand and sent away the palace maids around him, sat next to Erfu very casually, took the paralyzed Erfu into his arms, and asked worriedly: "What's going on, can't even the master say?"

"......" Erfu lowered her eyes, a little struggle flashed on her face, but in the end, she told the fourth master all the messy speculations in her heart, she was not a personality who was very good at dealing with these interpersonal relationships, although the fourth master didn't seem to be very good at this aspect, but no matter how she looked at it, she was stronger than her, so she irresponsibly left these troubles to the fourth master to worry about.

It turns out that the fourth master is Bilf smart and more free-spirited.

He patiently listened to Erfu's complaints, smiled and rubbed the top of Erfu's hair, showing a rare look of tenderness, and said with a little caution: "Even if the concubine in the palace may have done something to hurt you, but now that you and the children are fine, why should you bother about things that have not happened, if you really feel uneasy, you can just have less contact with her in the future!"

"I'm just not happy, I always feel cheated. Erph muttered sullenly.

"If you're not happy, go to the yard with your master, and look at the flowers and plants that the gardeners in the yard have carefully cultivated for you, maybe you won't be so bored!" As he spoke, the fourth master raised his hand and pulled Erfu up from the bed, and beckoned Shilan and Shiqing, who were waiting outside, to come in and dress up Erfu, while he was very patient sitting on the beauty couch next to the dressing table, looking at this scene with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

After a while, although the re-groomed Erf still looked sad, it had a little more brilliance.

She stood up a little lazily with the dressing table, beat her sore waist that had slept for too long with her backhand, drank a cup of tea, moistened her throat, and then came to the fourth master's side with some heavy steps, and handed a hand to the fourth master with a little reserve, and teased softly: "Since the fourth master asked, the concubine will reluctantly accompany you to the courtyard for a walk." After speaking, she pulled up the fourth master who was sitting on the beauty couch, and the two walked hand in hand to the courtyard.

The main courtyard is the largest courtyard in the fourth master's mansion, with three courtyards before and after, and there are cross-courtyards on the left and right, between the upper room with five wide rooms and the back cover room where the palace maid lives, there is also a small garden like a fairyland of Yao Chi.

At this time, the place where the fourth master and Erfu want to enjoy the flowers and scenery is the small garden here.

In the small garden, there are pavilions, winding streams and stone arch bridges carved from white marble, and there are nine winding corridors and rockeries piled up with Taihu Lake stones, and a cluster of precious flowers carefully cultivated by florists are dotted among them.

The two walked hand in hand on the winding corridor of the nine-curved corridor, pointing to the purple and red flowers, revealing intimacy and warmth, but let Erfu gradually forget these troubles that may have been calculated by Errou from the beginning to the end, the corners of his mouth smiled happily, and he bent down very childlike to pick two small pink and white flowers from a flower bush under the corridor, and put the hairpin on his sideburns, and asked the fourth master to praise himself for being beautiful.

"You're in a much better mood, aren't you?" the fourth master carefully picked up Erfu, who had leaned out of the corridor with most of his body, and asked with a smile.

"Well, I used to ignore the little garden here. Erfu replied with a happy smile written all over his face, and after speaking, he pulled the fourth master who was still standing by the corridor and walked forward, like a naughty girl who had escaped from the class, laughing, running and jumping as much as she wanted, and releasing the pressure in her heart......

Until Erfu ran sweaty, cheeks red, gasping for breath, the fourth master walked a few steps to her side, grabbed her slender waist, prevented her from going wild in the garden, and pulled her back to the room, the fourth master looked at Erfu who was washing his face and wiping his sweat by the sink, and very considerately took clean underwear and shoes and socks for her to change, and did not forget to persuade softly: "Don't always be stuffy in the room when you have nothing to do, your body will be stuffy!"

Looking at such a considerate fourth master, she thought of the word warm man.

I still remember that when she first came to this era, she thought that the fourth master should be the kind of iceberg cold man possessed by the domineering president Fan, and after getting along, she found that the iceberg cold noodle king was an authentic warm man in his bones, but he was just a little bad at expressing his true thoughts.

After returning the favor, Erfu poured the used water in the basin clean, prepared clean water, twisted a wet handkerchief, handed it to the fourth master with a smile, and said softly: "Ye also wipe the sweat, although the weather is cooler, but the scorching sun in this autumn is the most sunny!" After speaking, she turned around and went back to the inner room, found a set of underwear sewn by herself from the wardrobe, held it as if the fourth master had just taken care of herself, and sent it to the fourth master.

The autumn sun is scorching, this is definitely not Erf's casual nonsense.

Thinking back then, she was still a white and tender senior high school girl, who had experienced the college entrance examination of thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge, a notice down, and experienced the summer vacation life of eating and drinking enough, and she was frightened by the military training before she could see what the university was like.

The scorching sun, sweating like rain, a month passed, the white and tender Erfu became a black girl, and it took more than a year for her to become white again.

Well, the topic is a bit far off.

With a smile, she returned to the Luohan bed by the window in the east room and sat down, and prepared hot tea and snacks herself, just waiting for the fourth master to come out of the clean room.

Sitting in the seat of Prince Fujin, she found that there was really too little she could do for the fourth master, and she was left to do needlework and Zhang Luo some small jobs to eat and drink, think about those modern housewives, she seems to be quite happy, she doesn't need to take care of the children herself, she doesn't need to prepare three meals a day, and she doesn't need to clean up herself, think about if she didn't cross, now she is either working hard in a cubicle room of less than two square meters, or she is forced to go on a blind date by her parents, as if she is still a rice worm who doesn't work, and she is more in tune with her heart。

The thought was so useless, Erph shook her head, dispelled the growing brain hole, and focused her attention on the door of the clean room.

After a while, the fourth master came out of the clean room wearing a horseshoe sleeve midshirt embroidered with bamboo leaf patterns.

"I said a long time ago that I wouldn't let you do needlework, so as not to hurt your eyes, but you just didn't listen to your grandfather. The fourth master pulled the ironing of the neat middle coat on his body, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said cheaply, but everyone could see that he enjoyed the beautiful feeling of wearing the new clothes embroidered by Erfu himself.

"How can I be so squeamish, this is all cut and sent by the needlework room, and I just take the time to sew a few stitches. Hearing this, Erfu got up a few steps forward and came to the fourth master's side, raised his hand to smooth a few subtle folds on the placket, and replied with a smile, and at the same time did not forget to point to the embroidery work on the neckline and cuffs, showing off his own craftsmanship, "These are all embroidered by me according to the patterns drawn by the master himself, look, no worse than the embroidery girl in the needlework room." ”

"It's really good, the stitches are fine, and you can see that you put your heart into it. Only then did the fourth master notice the inconspicuous embroidery on the neckline and cuffs, and he raised his hand to brush the bamboo leaf pattern at the cuffs, and praised with a look of appreciation.

"I'm just doing it casually, if you like it, I'll make a few more sets of Chinese clothes for you another day." Erfu pretended not to care and took the robe that had been prepared next to her, and handed it to the fourth master with a smile, but the slightly raised corners of her lips had already revealed her good mood, no one doesn't like to hear their favorite people praise themselves, and Erfu is no exception.

Her good mood was maintained until Yujie returned to the house with the results of the investigation.

Facts have proved that her suspicion is not the heart of a villain, those old dolls are indeed carved out of wood soaked in special potions, but perhaps because the outer layers of the dolls are painted with bright lacquer, or because the potions contained in the wood must be evaporated at high temperatures, so these weak potions have not been able to hurt Xiao Qi and Hongxuan's bodies.

And Erf, because she was too lazy, allowed the fine rosewood to fall into the dust in the warehouse, and was not harmed.

"Since it has been determined that there is a problem with these things, then don't stay here anymore, let Su Peisheng take them down and destroy them as soon as possible!" Knowing that the wood used to carve the doll contained a weakness and weakness potion, the fourth master looked at the doll that had been scraped off the paint decoration with some disgust, and commanded in a deep voice.

"Isn't there a way to get rid of those potions?" Erph asked reluctantly.

In her opinion, these old dolls are an indispensable part of Xiao Qi and Hongxuan's childhood memories, so she wants to collect these old dolls well, and when the two children grow up, she and the fourth master are dying, and then take them out and recall the time that has passed with the children, it will definitely be a very warm experience, not only these dolls, the small clothes worn by Xiao Qi and Hongxuan, she also left some of them, but now the fourth master is going to destroy the old dolls she wants to keep well, she didn't turn her face on the spot, she was already patient and restrained。

In this regard, Yujie also specially asked the doctor in Jishengtang, and the answer was unanswered.

Because the doctor can't be sure what the drug ingredients are in these dolls soaked in potion, he can't use the method of mutual restraint to remove the residues of those debilitating potions, but if you simply rely on water soaking, no one knows how long it will take to remove the remaining potions in the wood, and these dolls are wooden, even if the texture is hard, it is impossible to soak in water for a long time, and in the end, it is likely that the potion in these dolls has not been removed, and the dolls have been completely soaked.

So...... The advice given by the doctor was to either burn it or throw it in the storeroom and continue to collect ashes.

"It's a pity that such a good thing is ruined like this, if you are reluctant, then find a sealed box and put it on, put it directly in the warehouse, take it out when you want to see it, as long as you don't put it around, there will be no problem if you think about it!" The fourth master saw that Erfu was reluctant to destroy these old dolls, he looked at these chic-shaped dolls, and also thought it was quite interesting, so he did not insist on his previous decision, but took a step back before Erfu could speak.

However, Erf shook her head with a tangled face and said, "Forget it, let's let people take it and destroy it."

Although these dolls are good, but there are harmful things inside, and they will be destroyed early, so I can rest assured, so as not to put them in the library, and I have to worry about whether they will be exploited by others. ”

Of course, it was not easy for her to make this decision.

She reluctantly looked at the old dolls with chic and delicate shapes, pulled the fourth master's arm and shook it coquettishly, and said softly: "I know that the master's painting is excellent, why don't you ask the master to raise his noble hand to help and copy these dolls, so as to leave me a memory." ”

"Okay, good, just paint it for you!" The fourth master smiled and looked at Erfu, who was smiling flatteringly beside him, and said helplessly.

Don't look at these dolls It takes a lot of time to carve them out, but it's very easy to draw, because these dolls are designed by Erf with reference to modern cartoon dolls. Interesting, but all the top are simple, a few strokes can draw a doll, the fourth master will draw these dolls in a while, and according to the paint decoration on those dolls, these dolls are painted with color, if it is not a 3D three-dimensional wood carving doll, a 2D cartoon doll picture spent on paper, there is no difference at all.

After painting these doll paintings, the fourth master wrote the name of the year and the name of the Yuanming monk who was a little lo in the blank space, and finally took out the private seal and left a seal, which rolled up the completely dry painting and handed it to Su Peisheng's hand, turned his head and said to Erfu: "When Su Peisheng finds someone to frame this painting, he will let him send it to you!"

Along with this painting, Su Peisheng took away, as well as those old dolls that Erfu cherished so much.

He's going to surprise Erf.
