Yuhua glanced at the enamel table clock in the corner, and whispered to a few jade-collared people to prepare for washing and changing clothes, and then came to the side of the kang with the bed curtain, as if he was worried about disturbing Erfu's good dreams, and called in a particularly soft voice: "Master, it's time to get up!"

It has been more than a month since moving back to the Fourth Master's Mansion, Erfu was busy dotting up the New Year's gifts sent to the various mansions and accepting the order of the white flag to ask for peace, and the whole person was tired and lost a lot of weight.

"If you don't get up quickly, if you miss the time, I'm afraid that Fujin's hard work these days will be in vain!" The fourth master got up in response, but did not pull the bed curtain, hugged Erfu and leaned on the soft pillow, and said softly.

Fu Jin is weak, and he has the heart to push Erfu in front of everyone, these days can be described as painstaking, more tired than in previous years when he took care of it in person, Erfu also saw it in his eyes, at this time I heard the fourth master talk about it, and no longer held his head and wailed, just holding the fourth master's clothes, like a little baby.

"Master, it's time to get up!" Yuhua, who was standing on the side of the kang, listened to the movement inside, only to feel that several black lines had slipped off the corners of his forehead, but looking at Su Peisheng's eyebrows-squeezing virtue, he had to resist the huge pressure and call again.

"Got it, I'm going to get up, it's really annoying......" Erfu sat up straight unhappily, pulled the crumpled silk clothes, and wanted to complain, but was directly covered by the fourth master's big hand to cover her mouth.

Erph's eyes were full of puzzlement and she shook her head. Reach out and want to struggle.

"It's Chinese New Year's Eve, don't talk nonsense anymore, think of something happy!" The fourth master rubbed the top of Erf's hair as if soothing a small animal. Brushing Erph's long, disheveled hair, he whispered.

Alas, Erfu wailed in her heart, nodded obediently, tore off the fourth master's big hand that was still blocking her mouth, and her resentful legs stepped over the fourth master's body, and sat down along the brocade mattress. He stepped barefoot on the footrest covered with wolf skin mats.

Today is the last day of the forty-seventh year of Kangxi, and the annual Chinese New Year's Eve is also the day to participate in the New Year's Eve feast hosted by the palace. Although as early as half a month ago, the Ulanala clan had rejected Erf's plan to take a leave of absence and be lazy, she was still not ready to get up before dawn like this.

As soon as Yuhua saw Erfu get up, the whole person became cheerful. Dragging Erf, who was still stunned, went to the clean room. The carved tub is already sprinkled with flower petals, and the bath is bubbling with milky white mist. On the rattan shelf next to it are ironed neat middle clothes and middle pants, as well as small clothes that are fragrant.

"It's been so hard for you guys these days!

Today, my grandfather and I are going to the palace, you can be considered to be able to relax quickly, I have already ordered Xiao Shengzi to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, don't treat yourself badly!" Erfu said while taking off her clothes and turning back to Yuhua and the others.

Yuhan quickly poured cold water into the bathtub and tested the water temperature little by little.

The warm water awakened Erf's sleeping nerves and reason. The fourth master has also washed and changed his clothes under the service of the little eunuch led by Su Peisheng!

Because it was time to enter the palace, Erfu couldn't soak for as long as usual. just simply washed his body, and then pulled his long hair with warm water, and then helped Yuhua's wrist to get up.

Although the well-maintained Erfu has given birth to a son and a daughter, she is still in good shape, and she has not even left a stretch mark. In front of the twig-patterned bronze mirror embedded in the shelf, crystal clear water droplets dripped down her delicate curves on the floor tiles engraved with peace lines, and before she could appreciate enough, Yuhua was already holding a big dry cloth cloth to wrap her tender white body.

"Master, you have to hurry, otherwise I'm afraid it's going to be late!" Yuhua looked at Erfu and looked at the bronze mirror stupidly, and couldn't help but remind softly.

Taking a deep breath of moist air, Erfu rubbed the little face that had just been covered with a hot handkerchief, took over Yuhua's movements, and wiped the water droplets on his body neatly, finding a little bit of the feeling when he went to a university dormitory in modern times.

The soft and fragrant royal blue trimmed placket was neatly dressed, Erfu's sleepiness completely dissipated, looking at the fourth master sitting on the couch with his hair draped, he took the comb in the maid's hand, and gently combed through the fourth master's long hair that was a little curly.

The fourth master's hair is very dark, and the hair strands are very hard, and it is not easy to comb it up.

However, because the hair on the front of the head has been shaved and the braids are not too thick, Erf is also quite handy.

The pine-scented head oil is the fourth master's favorite, but Erfu prefers the bamboo-scented head oil, seeing that the fourth master is closing his eyes to recuperate, he directly bypassed the small box of hair oil held by Su Peisheng, and turned his head to take the head oil held by Yuhua.

"It's really naughty!" The difference in taste made the fourth master open his eyes, looking at Erfu's snickering appearance, he couldn't help but speak.

Erfu pursed her lips and smiled, but she still combed the fourth master's hair according to her preferences, and the smile was as cunning as a fox, so that the fourth master couldn't help but nod Erfu's head, "Live like a child who doesn't grow up, don't hurry up and change clothes and makeup, carefully miss the time, Eniang will let you sit on a cold bench in the palace again!"

"Master, if you say that, Concubine De Niangniang, you are really not afraid that I will go to Concubine De Niangniang to complain!" Erfu twisted her eyebrows and pouted, but she still followed the fourth master's wishes, walked to the dressing table, sat down, and let Yuhua and Yuhan comb and pull her hair for her.

It's been years since I've been here, and Erf still hasn't learned how to comb such a cumbersome and beautiful bun, but she can also see some clues from the movements of the hairbrusher, and can even point out some special tricks for people to comb.

In a moment, Erfu's long silky black satin hair was combed into a wishful shelf, with a complete set of gold-inlaid jade heads, and two strands of broken jade tassels hanging from his ears.

A royal blue silver-edged tribute satin inlaid with wind wool embroidery auspicious and rich pattern placket shoulders, lined with the same color of the inside of the close-fitting placket flag, but not outstanding, not conspicuous.

Everything was ready, and Erf was dressed in a hot mink satin. Holding the fox skin tube stuffed with the hand stove, he followed the fourth master to the second door.

The Wulanala clan is sick, and this time the only female relatives in the fourth master's mansion who entered the palace for the banquet were the Guarjia clan and the Li family, but the children still had to be brought into the palace to ask for peace. As soon as she walked to the second gate, Erfu was disgusted by a son and a daughter born and raised by the Li family.

Xiao Qi and Hongxuan were wearing dark red clothes respectively, holding the big hand of the grandmother like a golden boy and a jade girl, and followed behind Erfu and the fourth master, not to mention how cute they were.

But the Li family became a mess, Hongyun was obviously six years old for a long time, but the Li family held on to it. didn't let him move to the front to live, and his temperament was extremely arrogant.

Although he was dressed neatly at this time, he still couldn't get up in his grandmother's arms. It's a little awkward to look at, after all, it's such a big child.

Mo Yaqi is a big girl, and she is accompanied by a nurturing grandmother and a grandmother, so worry-free is worry-free. But there was a flickering look of resentment in his eyes. It's always unpleasant.

At this time, I just saw the fourth master walk in, and he was holding the fourth master's arm like a child, and he was so frightened that the nurturing grandmother was busy kneeling and pleading.

"Alright, hurry up, let's talk about it when we get back!"

The fourth master has always been a good father who loves his children, although he knew that Mo Yaqi's behavior was a little inappropriate, but he still didn't want to discipline her in front of such people, so he turned around and explained to Erfu. led Su Peisheng and his party forward.

Honghui has been cultivated since he was a child in accordance with the identity of the heir of the Fourth Master's Mansion, and he acts in a steady and orderly manner. I got up early and changed into my robe, and went to the main courtyard to greet the Ulanala clan, and then returned to the front yard to prepare for departure.

When the two fathers and sons bumped into each other on the path, the fourth master showed a relieved smile, patted Honghui's shoulder, and walked forward without saying a word.

......

Outside the Shenwu Gate, for the first time, there was no guidance from the Wulanala clan, even if Erfu was trained by the Wulanala clan several times to enter the palace, he still couldn't help but rub his hands a little uneasily at this time, but fortunately, his hands were hidden in the leather tube, but he would not show his timidity.

The Li family pretended to be a transparent person for many days, and seeing that the fourth master had never sent her down, but he was so stable, but his ambition never disappeared, so he called the grandmother who was holding Hongyun, and walked to the side of the most easy to deal with, Sanbeile Yinzhi Fujin, with a smile.

"Master, what's wrong with us?" Yujie carefully put on the hood on the cloak for Xiao Qi and Hongxuan, and then came to Erfu's side and asked softly.

Erfu shook her head slightly, glanced at the other eyes of those who watched the show, and sighed lightly, "It doesn't matter if you fight in the mansion, but when you come out, she and I are a family, and we can't let people look at the jokes, even if she wants to be the head of the acting Fujin, then let her be, let's just follow obediently!"

"The slave understands!" Yujie was worried that Erfu would have trouble with the Li family at the gate of this palace, so she hurriedly asked, at this time, she only felt that she had let go of the big stone in her heart, put two pieces of fragrant cheese in the mouths of Xiao Qi and Hongxuan, and stuffed the small silver box with cheese into the sleeves of the two. lest the little one be hungry and uncomfortable.

After entering the palace gate in order, Erfu asked the little ones to be picked up.

There was a heavy snowfall last night, although the eunuchs in this palace cleaned up in time, but there are still some slippery feet on the road, the two little guys are children, if they fall and touch, this body is dirty, but it is really a blockage for Concubine De.

It's a good thing to be careful, even if it makes people think that her children are weaker, and Erf doesn't care.

At the gate of Yonghe Palace, Yuxiu, the aunt in charge of Concubine De's face, waited for everyone as in previous years, but it was different from the behavior of personally leading everyone in in previous years.

In modern times, Erfu has seen from major TV series that Concubine De loves the old fourteen, but she always feels that it is just an exaggerated effect of the drama, but she doesn't want to contact Concubine De Niangniang, the more she can feel Concubine De's disregard for the fourth master and her preference for the old fourteen, as if the fourth master is not her son, but her enemy.

Presumably, the Wulanala clan had also felt it in Concubine De Niangniang before, otherwise she would not rather associate with the old thirteenth Fujin, but she would never see the one from the old fourteenth family.

Erfu pondered about this when she was fine, she felt that Concubine De didn't know how to get along with the fourth master, or that Concubine De didn't know how to face the existence of the fourth master.

When the fourth master was born, Concubine De was weak in the palace, not even a concubine, but just a concubine, which can be regarded as the most humble and lowly time in her life.

At that time, they were all official women, and Concubine De, who was in the position of the fourth concubine, was unwilling to think of things, so at that time, the fourth master was raised by Tong Jia's side, and she would not go to visit the fourth master, and she would not even let the palace people around her get close to him.

When Tong Jia's passed away, the fourth master was already sensible when he returned to her side again, and her energy was focused on competing for favor and taking care of her youngest son, so when the fourth master grew up unconsciously in her, she didn't know how to treat him, a son who was obviously developing towards an iceberg temperament.

And the younger son is cute, so she will naturally like the pink and tender little son.

Speaking of which, after so many years, Concubine De's preference for Lao Fourteen is both a habit and an escape.

After thinking about all this, Erfu had more sympathy for this mother-in-law who didn't like her, so she often whitewashed Concubine De in front of the fourth master, and while gaining more favor from the fourth master, the relationship between the fourth master and Concubine De Niangniang gradually eased a lot, and it also made the fourth master and the old fourteen have more contacts.

Seeing Yuxiu leave her and the Li family and go to greet the Fourteenth Fujin, Erfu didn't feel anything uncomfortable. But the Li family, who was nagged by Sanfujin before, changed his face, and he looked like someone owed her eight hundred taels of silver, so frightened that the palace maids who led the way shrank their necks, for fear of being innocently punished.

Seeing Concubine De Niangniang again, Erfu led the well-behaved Xiaoqi and Hongxuan, and knelt down to say goodbye and sat down with Li's movements, and every move fell into the eyes of Concubine De Niangniang, who was sitting at the top.

Seeing that Xiao Nizi with a slightly inquiring look in her eyes back then is now more and more stable and regular, Concubine De showed a warm smile.

"A few days ago, the master from the north of the leather merchant received some good materials, the concubine thought that the mother was a little uncomfortable on the legs, so she made a pair of knee pads, and asked the mother not to dislike it!" When Concubine De first entered the palace, she was just an official woman, not much higher than the status of the palace maid, and this palace was a place where she was punished for kneeling at every turn, so the problem on her leg fell. When I was young, I didn't think about it, but as I got older, it became apparent.

It has snowed a few days in the past few days, Concubine De is feeling uncomfortable, now see the satin knee pads sewn from wolf skin, although the embroidery is not good, but the stitches are very fine, at a glance is the craftsmanship of this cheap daughter-in-law, feel the filial piety from the cheap daughter-in-law, Concubine De's face is much softer.

"It's been so many years since you entered the mansion, and this skill is still so poor, but it's time to practice it well!" Concubine De looked at the knee pads a few times, and then put the knee pads away, which showed that she was satisfied, and just wanted to praise a few words, but she didn't want to look up and see Erfu grinning and smirking, so she couldn't help but jump up and say.

"The concubine knows!" replied with a smile and a nod of her head. (To be continued......)
