Chapter 123
In the evening, the fourth elder brother had just returned from Zhijun Wang when he heard that Geng Shi was ill.

He thought about coming out this trip, until now Geng Shi still looks like a transparent person-it is probably a bit embarrassing in face.

In addition, Geng Shi was originally a taciturn, preoccupied character.

I'm afraid that the fourth elder brother will not go there, she herself is suspicious, and feels that something is not in line with the master's wishes-worried, so she fell ill herself.

There are only two princesses in total, one is favored and the other is neglected, it seems that the favored one is bullying others.

The fourth elder brother thought for a while, but after all, he changed into another clothes and passed away.

……

Of course Geng is not sick - the women in the backyard are fighting for favor, and it's just a few words.

If it is in the mansion, it will not work at all.

But this is going out, there are only her and Gu, so it's different.

What's more, her attack today also has the bearing of breaking the boat.

Take care of the silver taels of the slaves around Fourth Master - even Lian Na would feel pain for her when the amount was taken out.

But as the saying goes, money can make ghosts turn the millstones——as expected, the money was in place, and the servants made great efforts to exaggerate it.

The fourth elder brother was moved with compassion and passed away.

After all, he didn't come very often. Lian Na was surprised and happy when she saw him, and she was so nervous that she made a mistake in saluting.

Fortunately, the fourth elder brother didn't even look at her, and went in directly.

Geng Shi had been prepared for a long time. Although he claimed to be ill, his hair and make-up had been well-groomed - how shrewd and sharp the fourth elder brother's eyes were, and he knew it at a glance.

But he wasn't angry at all - he didn't have any feelings for Geng.

No expectations, why disappointment?
Geng Shi was supported by Lian Na, and she was about to bow down, but the fourth elder brother didn't say no, and let her kneel before calling out.

He didn't reach out to support Gu as he did.

When Gu Shi shed a tear, he would feel distressed; but now facing the "sick" Geng Shi, he has no emotion.

Geng Shi was naturally disappointed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He stood up like a weak Liu Fufeng, leaned on the maidservant vainly, and said in a soft and euphemistic voice, "Thank you."

The fourth elder brother looked her over,
Geng wore a lavender regular dress, and the beaded earrings on his head were all elegant and gentle styles, which seemed to follow Li's route.

The fourth elder brother smiled, stretched out his hand to take a few copybooks from the desk next to him, and there was another idle book, flipped through a few pages, and said casually: "I heard that you are sick, how are you? Do you feel better now?"

Geng said a few words in a hurry.

It's just dizziness, rest is good.

She certainly can't say that her condition is too serious - it's just an excuse to invite fourth master here.

If it was really serious, wouldn't she become a patient?

A patient, fourth master will not stay overnight.

Lian Na went to bring out the dinner, pastries, and fragrant tea that had been prepared earlier.

Seeing that everything was well prepared, the fourth elder brother became more clear in his heart - the Geng family is not the Gu family, so he is not to be favored, and she doesn't have so many people staring at her, and she is ready to curry favor at any time.

This can only be prepared in advance.

The fourth elder brother didn't have dinner yet, seeing that it had been carefully prepared here, he wanted to save trouble, so he sat down and took the chopsticks to eat.

After eating a few mouthfuls, he thought of those copybooks and books he saw just now, so he asked Geng Shi: "Do you practice calligraphy and read books every day?"

This was just gossip, but Geng felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy, he had already turned through several ways of answering in his stomach, and finally chose the safest answer after deliberation.

She smiled and said: "Back to the fourth master, my concubine's qualifications are mediocre. I don't practice every day, but I just take it out occasionally. What's more, when I was in my natal family, my father often taught that a woman's lack of talent is virtue, and my concubine's status is deep." I take it for granted, I just want to follow and serve Fourth Master well."

In fact, there is not a single fault in this statement.

Very standard answer.

But it sounds boring.

Just... dry.

The fourth elder brother remained expressionless for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

Sensing the smile of the fourth elder brother, Geng's cheeks blushed slightly, and he did not dare to look up and look at the fourth elder brother.

She thought that since the fourth master laughed, it meant that there was no problem with what he said—so she played it in this direction: "When Fujin was in the mansion, he often taught everyone that serving the master should be the first in everything, and blind dates Love each other, the whole family is happy, I always keep in mind..."

Hearing that Geng ordered Fujin, the fourth elder brother felt a little disappointed, reached out for the soup spoon, took a mouthful of soup and put it in his mouth, and ignored him.

Originally, this time, Geng's ability to come out with him was due to Fujin's strong praise.

Oh, she didn't forget about Fujin!

Geng Shi was talking, looking at the face of Su Peisheng on the opposite side, he quickly stopped talking, quietly looked at the expression of the fourth prince, and did not dare to say anything casually, but just stretched out his hand to put the nectar cake, Gelao cake, horseshoe roll, amber The plate of eight kinds of pastries, including bamboo cake, bamboo leaf cake, and loquat cake, was pushed forward: "Master, try some more..."

The fourth elder brother glanced at Geng Shi under the light - Geng Shi's face turned pale with fright.

Especially the timid look in his eyes, he couldn't help but look at him secretly, obviously he was afraid that what he said or did wrong would make the fourth elder brother unhappy, and the fourth elder brother left.

For a woman without favor, it is a luxury to have a dinner with him.

After seeing through it thoroughly, the fourth elder brother felt pitiful - since Geng came to the mansion, he didn't do anything wrong.

Why bother?
He sighed, and he didn't want to continue this dry and boring conversation with Geng Shi, let alone today was a tiring day, so he said directly: "Let's take a break."

Lian Na's hands trembled, and she almost dropped the soup bowl she was holding.

Geng's face turned red.

……

After entering the back room, Geng stretched out his hands to wait for the fourth elder brother to unbutton his collar, while Lian Na had already repeatedly asked the servants to bring in hot water.

The fourth elder brother turned his eyes casually around the room, and suddenly his eyes fell on the boxes of rouge next to him—the rouge had a strong fragrance, which had already filled the whole room at this moment.

The fourth elder brother remembered that he bought it when he was strolling around the lake with Gu Yaoyao today, it was very different from the rouge in the palace.

This must have been sent here by someone she sent to share with Geng Gege.

Thinking of Gu Yaoyao's smile like a flower along the way today, the fourth elder brother couldn't help but smile——

Geng's fingertips were trembling slightly while unbuttoning his buttons, but suddenly he noticed that Fourth Master's eyes became extraordinarily gentle, with a smile on his lips.

She followed his gaze and turned her head to look over, only to see those boxes of rouge on the table.

It was Gu Yaoyao who sent someone to send it over.

Geng's heart sank slightly, and when he looked at the fourth elder brother again, it was obvious that he was a little absent-minded.

Geng's intestines are turning green with regret.

All she knew was that Gu Gege knew how to be a man and sent someone to share some small gifts - how could she have imagined that this was the fourth elder brother who personally accompanied her out for a trip?

If I knew this earlier, I should have asked someone to put away the gift from Mrs. Gu in advance, and I definitely shouldn't let Fourth Master see it.

 Let me tell you~~ There is no 1V1 in the early stage, but as the male protagonist becomes more and more interested in the female protagonist, it will definitely become a 1V1 in the future
