Chapter 342: Master, Don't Move!
Chapter 342
"All of you go down!"
Erfu knew that what she was going to say couldn't be said in front of people, and seeing that the fourth master was on the rise, as soon as she raised her hand, she sent away Yaoqin and the others who followed behind her, took off her shoes and socks, and sat on the cushion by the green jade pool with her robe and the hem, and greeted the fourth master who was still standing in place.
The fourth master was a little uncomfortable with such closeness, but watching Erfu's slender little feet like jade carvings swinging back and forth in the cardamom soup was interesting, he was no longer restrained, after all, this is at home, and who cares about others!
"Bubbles, it's cold on the horse's feet on this road!" Erfu raised his hand to take off the boots for the fourth master, but he didn't want the fourth master, who had always been full of energy in bed, to be shy, and hurriedly explained.
"Just come by yourself!" the fourth master raised his hand to stop Erf's movements, but took off his boots himself.
The fourth master's feet were very large, like two small boats floating in the lake.
The water waves are like the rain that is chaotic, itching the tender flesh in the hearts of the four masters' feet, and then looking at the smiling Erfu on the side, I only feel that my whole body is very comfortable, I can't help but turn my hands and hug my neck, and as soon as I stretch my waist, I lay on the palace blanket, just like that day I and Erfu were lying on the grass and watching the stars.
"You still know how to enjoy it!" the fourth master said casually, raising his hand and pulling Erfu, who was still sitting on the edge of the pool, to lie down together, rubbing his feet against his feet, very close.
Erfu leaned on the arms of the fourth master, feeling his strong and powerful heartbeat, and it took a while to organize the language, and turned over and half lay on his side. With one hand on his cheek, he asked with a smile: "Yinzhen, what kind of person do you think I am?"
"You!" the fourth master smiled when he heard this. Raising his hand and touching Erfu's slick cheek, he replied in a low voice, "You are like a mountain spring, you can see the bottom at a glance, clean and transparent, and you don't hide any thoughts!"
"So in your eyes, I'm so good!" Erf blinked a little smugly. continued, "Then I won't go around in circles with my master today!"
With that, Erf sat up straight. Pulling the fourth master who was still lying on the palace blanket and squinting, he pointed to the green jade pool inlaid with various gems that shimmered in the candlelight and the sunlight leaking in from the window, and stroked the various lines carved out.
"How much silver is a stone of top-quality white rice in the bazaar?" asked Erph, tilting her little head.
"This ...... I don't know!" the fourth master showed a rare hint of embarrassment and replied softly.
"Then how many meters do you think a gem the size of a pigeon's egg can be exchanged for at this moment?" Erph touched a green gem engraved with the word Fu in his hand. Jiaosheng asked.
"These things are worthless, though. But in the end, it is a rare thing imported from abroad, and it is estimated that a family of six or seven can eat it for two or three years!"
"That means that these worthless things are enough for a village to eat up and down for a few years!" Erfu said with a smile, pointing to the thousands of gems of various colors inlaid in the green jade pool.
The fourth master was silent for a long time, and withdrew the hand that was wrapped around Erfu's waist.
"What do you mean by saying this today?" the fourth master asked in a deep voice.
Erfu blinked her eyes, shrugged her shoulders indifferently, Qianqianyu's fingers were unconsciously entangled, and she lowered her head and said, "Actually, it's not interesting." It's just that I have some ideas from what you said today.
The emperor said that the emperor felt that he had seen the prosperity and worry-free life of the people in Jiangnan, Gyeonggi, Shandong and other places on his many patrols, but whenever he encountered a disaster year. What is the purpose of those snowflakes of requests for tax reduction and disaster relief?
I am a deep woman, I don't know about the big things in the court, but I have also seen from the book that there are frozen bones on the stinky road of Zhumen's wine and meat, this time the lord used so many things for the cost of building such a bathroom for my liking, so he has a preference for the side, is the lord also satisfied!
There are Zhuangzi and the emperor's shop in the house...... The income is very high, and I don't care about such a little waste, but how many people can fill their stomachs if they are replaced with food!
Since the lord wants to go down and walk down according to what the emperor said, you might as well go to the bottom of the people and see their lives......"
Erfu didn't know what changes she said today, but the most incorruptible and clean emperor Yongzheng in history felt that it didn't matter if he built such a bath, so it didn't matter if Qianlong built a garden like a loser, millions of taels of silver were spent like this, and a lot of silver was spent on maintenance every year, so how much silver should it be.
And if this silver can be used to build an army, even if the Qing Dynasty will not have the most powerful army in the world, it will not let those people break into the door casually, and until a few years later, the descendants of the dignified Chinese will be inferior outside.
She wants to...... I hope that the future can be changed, even if the price paid is the disappearance of her Su Linger, but at least she can be worthy of her heart.
"When did you start thinking about these issues?" the fourth master's eyes darkened, and he grabbed Erfu's waist and asked in a deep voice.
Erfu knew that the fourth master was a suspicious person, even if he had just said that she was as simple as a blank sheet of paper, listening to her talk at this time, there would be some tentative actions, so she had already prepared the words for the answer.
"Anyway, I just think that the money should be used on the blade, and these expensive and ornate decorations are not necessary.
In fact, a bathroom doesn't cost much, it's a waste to make the edge of the pool like such a good jade, it's a waste to just use the marble used for ordinary paving, if you don't think it's beautiful enough, you can decorate it with some polished and smooth pebbles of various colors, or the glass beads decorated under the gauze curtain in the room are also pretty good!"
Sure enough, as soon as Erfu's words came out, the fourth master's stiff arm softened, twisting her plump waist for a while, her eyes flashed with the light of thinking, and the whole person was so quiet that only the shallow movement of breathing remained.
The bath gradually cooled, but it was not a hot spring, and the north wind was blowing outside, even if there was a dragon that had already been prepared under the clear bath.
"Don't be stupid, wipe your feet back into the room and talk!" Naturally, he was not in the mood to take a bath at this time, so he smiled and pushed the fourth master, who was still stunned, and pulled the dry cloth handkerchief stacked on the shelf. Carefully wiped the water droplets on his feet, put on his delicate sheepskin boots again, and said loudly.
"Too lazy to bend over!" the fourth master said with a squint of his eyes, lifting his big feet that were still soaking in the water.
Erph shook her head slightly, smiled a little helplessly, took the handkerchief she had just used, and squatted on the edge of the pool. Stretched out his hand and pulled the silk pants that the fourth master had reached the crook of his legs, and wiped the big feet that didn't have any flesh to the touch, and stuffed them into the cloth socks when they were half wet and half dry.
"Alright!" Erff slapped him on the thigh. Said with a smile.
was perfunctory by Erfu to such an extent, and the fourth master also laughed angrily.
However, he raised his eyes to the little pouting mouth of Shangerfu, and he really couldn't let out his anger. I can only put on my shoes with helplessness. called the palace people who were waiting under the porch, whispered two words of command, and helped Erfu back to the main room.
The main house of the west courtyard is still five.
Except for the bright room that opens in the middle, which is the east and west secondary rooms that serve as a study and a rest room on both sides, the tip room is still a bedroom and a warm pavilion, and the only difference from the previous one is that it has been replaced with a glass window with a full transparent silver wire pattern.
Sitting on the big kang near the window in the east room, the palace people had already put a few plates of dried fruits, candied fruits and other foods on the carved rosewood tea table, and the fourth master smiled and pinched a dried apricot. He asked softly, "Are you still satisfied?"
"Look at these ocean-blue droplet-shaped pendants, and there are some dark blue hooks in them that resemble water lines. How exquisite!" Erph replied softly, drawing on the pendant that adorned the curtain of smoke by the window.
"You really like these things!" the fourth master tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Erfu smiled indifferently, pinched the smooth water droplet-like pendant, half lay on the soft back pillow, lazily threw peanut kernels into her mouth, and did not make a sound for a long time, and when the fourth master walked to Erfu's side, she found that the silly girl had fallen asleep with the pumpkin pillow at hand, curled up like a boiled prawn.
The fourth master wrapped his long arms and took Erfu into his arms.
Erfu rubbed like a cat, found a comfortable position, and took the initiative to nest into the warm arms of the fourth master.
In the inner room, a yellow-flowered rosewood carved stepping bed hung a light-colored curtain, which was the color that Erfu liked, and the fourth master was a little reluctant to put down Erfu, and folded the quilt for her, and ordered the palace people to move a few charcoal stoves outside, and then called Su Peisheng to go forward.
"Mr. Dai, how much silver do you say is the best white rice in the market?" the fourth master looked at the newspaper and asked casually.
"About seven or eight dollars of silver!" Dai Duo has traveled from south to north over the years, although these things of food, clothing, housing and transportation have a small servant and often worry about them, but he still understands a little bit and replied without any hesitation.
When the fourth master heard this, he made a movement in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly, "What about the japonica rice and tribute rice used in our house?"
"Japonica rice is more expensive than the white rice produced in Jiangnan, and the tribute rice is specially for the royal family and ministers to eat, and it is not allowed to be sold on the market, and Dai is not easy to judge!" Dai Duo sent the information in his hand to the fourth master's book case and put it away, and replied in a low voice.
"Is it okay in the Eighth Mansion?" The fourth master didn't bother with the price of food anymore, looked at the booklet sent by Chen Fu, and asked without raising his head.
Dai Duo was stunned by the fourth master's leapfrog questioning, and then flipped through the booklet that was still being sorted out in his hand, and selected a book that recorded the trivial matters in the eighth master's mansion and sent it to the fourth master, and introduced it as briefly as possible:
"Zhang's is a person who can't help up, although the little maid around him has worked hard to bewitch, but he still stays in the small courtyard all day long and doesn't go out, and he doesn't even dare to take a look at his own little brother.
On the contrary, that Nian Gege is a temperamental, and has been clamoring for the eighth master to ask for justice for the little brother who has never had a chance to be born in her stomach, and she has even contacted the Mao family, coupled with a large amount of money provided by the brothers of the Nian family, many slaves in the house have been received by his subordinates, and there is a great momentum to fight against the Bafujin court. ”
"That's good, there's a fire in this backyard, I want to see what he should do with this gentle eighth master!"
......
Erff slept until the time of the lamp, and then stretched his waist and sat up, "When?"
Yaoqin heard Erfu's movement, and hurriedly walked into the inner room with a candlestick, "Master, it's already time!"
As she spoke, Yaoqin had already lit up the candlesticks in the inner room.
In particular, as soon as the red candles on the two nine lotus lamps that stretched out like flower branches on both sides of the Babu bed were lit, the whole inner room was as bright as day.
"When did you leave?" Erfu stretched out his hand to take the burgundy tuanhua dark pattern satin jacket given by Yaoqin, and asked with raised eyes while tying the buckle.
"But it's not time!" Yaoqin replied respectfully, "But the master wants someone to set the meal?"
"Let's wait a while!" Erph stretched her arms and legs for a while, wiped her face with Yaoqin's hand, wiped some pearl powder-soaked lotion, turned around and took the silver-red satin hanging on the hanger, draped it on her body and tied it, and walked to the east wing to see the little milk baby as she spoke.
Jiu'er and Xiao Jiu had just drunk milk, and at this time they were nesting in the arms of Grandma Grandma and biting their fingers, and when they saw Erfu enter the door, they didn't know if they felt Erfu's breath, and they actually screamed "...... of milk", and she immediately laughed when she heard it.
"Slave maid, please side blessing Jin'an!" said that, the grandmother was about to bow down and salute.
"Don't toss, nest these two little ones again!" Erfu waved his hand casually, took off the big and handed it to the palace man who followed behind him, stood by the charcoal basin and warmed his body, and then walked into the inner room.
Erfu took Xiao Jiu'er from Mama Shen's hand, looked at Xiao Jiu'er's mouth with milk stains and tears, and hurriedly instructed the palace people to twist the handkerchief to wipe it off with their own hands, and then pulled the skirt and sat next to Jiu'er, who had been put on the bed by Mama Shen, teasing the two little guys, and asked in a low voice, "Jiu'er and Xiao Jiu eat well?"
"The little master is fine, Brother Hongxuan and Qigege came to see it in the second half of the day, and played with the little master for a while!" Shen Mama replied with a smile, took a pair of hollow jade balls embedded with copper bells and handed them to Erfu, and asked Erfu to tease Jiu'er and Xiao Jiu.
The sound of the copper bell is crisp and pleasant, and when it collides with the jade, it will also make a crisp sound, which has always been Jiu'er and Xiao Jiu's favorite thing, and when you hear it, you will giggle and laugh non-stop.
"Look at these two toothless guys!" Erfu hugged Xiao Jiu and complained to Yaoqin.
"Master, don't move!" Yaoqin looked over when she heard the sound, and she was stupid at first glance, her legs were so soft that they were bent like noodles, and a hand with lotus fingers trembled and pointed to the glazed palace lamp directly above the shelf bed, and screamed.
