Mrs. Lin was yelled at to the south wall, her anger suddenly rose, and she opened her mouth to curse: "You..."
But when she saw Zhou Chenghan and Zhou Chengzhang, she swallowed the words that had reached her throat and said under pressure: "I asked you to come here today to solve this matter. If you are really in such a hurry, why don't you go quickly? In the past, we had to come to you."
She really didn't know what luck Lin Qingge had hit, and both princes favored her.
Before she spoke again, the young man walked out of the bamboo house and said to Mrs. Lin: "Madam, Mr. Jiu asked me to pass on a message. The gentleman said, 'I admire Mrs. Chu's paintings very much, so I delayed her time. , is Mrs. Lin dissatisfied with me?'"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Lin's expression changed drastically.
The person Zhou Chengzhang wanted to fawn over stood up for Lin Qingge!
"Young Madam," the young man looked at Lin Qingge again, bowed deeply and said, "Mr. Jiu also asked that the spring outing and summer lotus pictures have been painted. I wonder what Young Madam wants to paint in autumn and winter."
Lin Qingge raised his eyebrows slightly. Didn't he agree to paint the last two paintings later?
But when she noticed the people around her craning their necks to watch, she understood instantly.
If no one saw her painting with their own eyes, there would always be someone trying to trick her in secret.
Mr. Jiu is giving her a chance to clear her name.
She was very sensible and readily agreed.
After thinking for a moment, she dipped the brush into red paint and threw it on the drawing paper.
The unexpected behavior shocked everyone and some even began to doubt her abilities.
Lin Qingge ignored it, changed to a clean brush, dipped the red paint on the paper and started painting.
At first it was just a bunch of red dots, but as she sketched here and there, the red paint suddenly became layered, and the people whispering around her became quiet.
She seemed to be describing it with a pen, and the clumps of red faintly revealed the outline, and her character was slowly revealed.
If you look carefully, you can see that there are red leaves all over the mountain!
The best thing is that the carriage halfway up the mountain, with only a few strokes, seems simple, but because the driver is half-lying on the carriage and drinking wine, the originally solemn Qiu Feng suddenly loses his temper. The whole article is full of the driver. Lazy and comfortable.
All those who thought Mr. Jiu might have made a mistake before began to praise him.
"The brushstrokes are delicate and powerful, the colors are used freely, and every detail in the painting is perfect."
"The red maple leaves almost fill the whole painting paper, but there is no sense of withering and defeat. Instead, it makes people feel the vigorous vitality."
"Indeed, only paintings like this are worthy of a place like Graceland."
The boy followed up with a compliment very respectfully, then presented a black jade plaque with both hands: "Young madam, Mr. Jiu said, this is the deposit."
Su Yunting said 'ouch', attracting the attention of many people: "This is the token for free entry and exit of Graceland. Mr. Jiu should give out no more than three tokens, right?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhou Chengzhang's eyes, but he quickly said with a smile: "Yes, even I have never gotten it. It seems that Mr. Jiu really appreciates my cousin's talent."
Lin Qingge didn't expect that a few paintings would get such an opportunity.
However, she would not miss the opportunity to hug Mr. Jiu's thigh tightly.
After she reached out to take the token, she said loudly to Zhuwu: "Thank you, Mr. Jiu."
The eyes of the people next to him were all straight. One dared to give it away and the other dared to receive it. Do they really not take Zhou Chengzhang seriously?
At this time, Lin Qiuyue's expression turned extremely ugly.
She was originally going to make Lin Qingge a being that everyone would laugh at today, but instead she gave her a chance to steal the show!
no!
She had to make Lin Qingge make a fool of himself.
But before she could think of what to do, Zhou Chengzhang had already said to Lin Qingge: "Cousin, the lotus flowers in the summer garden are blooming beautifully this season, let's go together."
Lin Qingge's lowered eyes flashed with disdain, but her words were still respectful: "I'm afraid that I will offend the prince's good intentions. My wife came to Xia Garden today because she was invited by Mrs. Lin. She said she wanted to pay attention to Yixiaotang. Apologize to my wife."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Mrs. Lin.
Her old face turned red and she spoke in embarrassment: "The kids at home are acting up..."
"Nonsense?" Lin Qingge took up the conversation and said coolly, "Since Mrs. Lin has no intention of apologizing, I will go back home. After all, my husband is lying in bed and still needs my care."
One sentence made Mrs. Lin unable to dismount.
Lin Qiuyue looked at Lin Qingge's arrogant expression, and the anger in her chest burned even more.
The glory of the Lin family can only belong to her, and she must not let Lin Qingge continue to show his face.
Lin Qingge's performance in front of everyone just now was so brilliant, how embarrassing it would be for her in a moment!
Lin Qiuyue stepped forward to stop Lin Qingge, and said with red eyes: "Sister, it's all my fault. It was because I was young and my mother loved you so much that I mistakenly thought that we were born from the same mother, so I thought that your little mother left Your things belong to me too."
In a few words, Mrs. Lin was described as a very kind mother, and her children were treated as her own.
Zhou Chengzhang intended to make friends with the Lin family, and naturally he didn't want the Lin family to be too embarrassed in front of everyone.
He spoke like a peacemaker: "Since it's all a misunderstanding, let's forget it."
Lin Qingge turned around and looked over: "The prince is ambitious for the world, but he may not know much about the money and food of the shop. Not to mention the income of other shops that Mrs. Lin is in charge of, the annual income of Yixiaotang alone is 500 taels of silver. In the past ten years, That’s not a small amount of time.”
The house with two rooms on the front and four floors at the bottom is only one hundred and twenty taels. It's really unjustifiable to say that these thousands of taels of silver are just a misunderstanding.
Zhou Chengzhang's face showed a slight embarrassment, and he continued: "Qiuyue, since it's your fault. Then I propose a cup of tea to cousin Qingge. As for the silver matter, you can sit down and talk slowly."
He said so, how dare Lin Qiuyue disobey?
Even though she was dissatisfied, she still took the tea brought by the waiter and handed it to Lin Qingge respectfully: "Sister, my parents have already taught me a lesson, please forgive me."
Lin Qingge glanced at Lin Qiuyue, who was holding tea and nodding with lowered eyebrows, and then his eyes fell on Mrs. Lin: "Are the people and things that apologized wrong?"
Lin Qiuyue was very upset when she was ignored. She was like this, what else would Lin Qingge do?
But with so many people around, she couldn't force herself.
Lin Qiuyue took a step forward, staggered, and a cup of tea spilled on Lin Qingge's skirt.
"I didn't mean it!" Lin Qiuyue's eyes flashed with joy, but her words were full of apologies, "Sister, I didn't mean it. I held it for too long, so I couldn't hold it anymore."
"No need to apologize, I don't hold grudges. After all, I did have grudges, and I avenged them on the spot." Lin Qingge picked up the palette on the table and threw it onto Lin Qiuyue.
