Tao ignored Su's crooked words, remembered one more thing and said: "Jin Niang, your second sister-in-law is Zhiyuan's godmother, no wonder she came from Lin Tuo last time to give us a gift." ”

Su Shi sighed, I couldn't go to the princess's mansion, it was the second aunt who brought something to the princess, the second aunt and Mrs. returned to Jiangnan and sent a letter to Mrs. Tai, saying that everything was fine, and she would come to Beijing next year to do a marriage for Yu Bing, and also said that she had met her cousin Lao Guogong in Jiangnan.

Su Shi knew in his heart that the second aunt had always inquired about Su Mansion before, probably because of this relationship, Tao continued: " I asked how to know your second aunt and wife, since Lin said that when Zhiyuan and his mother gave birth to him before the full moon, he was sick, he hugged to find Master Fang Yuan, where he met Princess Changning and your second aunt, who knows, the second aunt and Mrs. Zhiyuan hugged Zhiyuan, he didn't cry, Zilin said that it was fate, and recognized your second aunt as a godmother under the witness of the mage and the princess, I remembered later, the princess went to Jiangnan for two years, she and your second aunt have always been good, and you will definitely be with your second aunt always in one place, so Zilin also knows the princess, and after coming to Beijing, I went to meet the princess, and today is the princess banquet from Lin and his son。 ”

Su Shi was curious about Zhiyuan and his mother, I don't know which lady this brother will marry, after listening to the sister-in-law's inquiry, Tao also wondered: " Zilin didn't say in detail, only said that he was less than ten years old and followed the master to learn to paint and walk around, used to being alone, he didn't agree to arrange marriage at home, he had been wandering outside, until almost thirty, he met an orphan girl outside, who knew that only his father and son were left, I didn't continue to ask after listening to this, that is, generally like Zilin, the family is unable to take him, he said to go alone, painting everywhere, no one at home must have paid attention to him, he said that he was a poor boy, Xiucai has not passed, regret your eldest brother, sigh for a night, that is, because Zilin also has a stepmother, no one cares about him, it is estimated that the stepmother is still afraid that he will fight for the family business with his brother at homeIf I have such a son, no matter how famous I am, I can't compare to having a son, a daughter-in-law and a grandson, the family is in one place, he is good, he has a son, and he has not gone out with his son, he didn't dare to go again, and he ran all over the distance, saying that Zhiyuan grew up on the road. ”

Speaking of this, Tao also sighed, "Poor, there is no mother, the father and son help each other all the way, even when they return home, the old house does not live, the father and son bought a house in Changzhou to live, his father is not a good one, Zilin said, his father has long passed him to an uncle who is gone, you said that the eldest son of the eldest son is passed to a desperate family, and there is no one, what will it be?" Now Zilin wants to call his father an uncle, his house is his father and son, your eldest brother is angry, saying that Jiangnan Sufu has not been divided, if he sees it, he will definitely let his father kneel in the ancestral hall, and the eldest son of a good grandson will let him go out like this, this is the result of marrying the house, but the daughter-in-law is gone, and he can't not marry, why do I allow the third daughter-in-law, that is, if the third wife fills the house, just like him, then the eldest son must not be as good as Zilin, so Zilin himself has the ability, if it is my grandson's turn, I can take care of it as a grandmother for a few years? In the future, the grandson will not fall into the hands of the stepmother, you see that Zilin would not be able to live with the master before he was ten years old? If there is a mother, who is willing to do it? Now he also allows his father and son to live in Cheung Chau, and having a father is the same as not. ”

Su can't think that his brother has experienced ups and downs, he still looks like a Maitreya Buddha, at first glance it is Uncle Sunshine, but also, it is because of his open-mindedness that he can draw good works, after seeing his picture of a small farm yard, the whole picture is full of joy.

Zilin also said, for so many years, few outsiders know that he is a mountain painter, and the family does not know, he is a poor child, and no one in his family pays attention to his father and son, he is not in Jiangnan or goes out, and he doesn't have to report to anyone, too, he has passed on to others, and the father in the name is gone if he doesn't marry a daughter-in-law, Zilin smiled and said a few simple words, just those few words, and I heard that his stepmother and brother must have troubled him, no wonder he would rather marry an orphan girl outside than go home, alas, I don't know if it's far away, otherwise your eldest brother will definitely come forward, even if you take it back and we can raise it, a good person doesn't even have a home because of his stepmother, pitiful。 ”

This is an elderly woman, maybe Su Zilin just said a few words, and the sister-in-law made up a bitter child's growth in her brain.

It may also be because of this experience that he has the eyes to see through everything in the world, so that he can paint every grass and tree in the world with emotion, which is why his paintings are famous.

"I asked your eldest brother to open an ancestral hall and record Zilin in his current father's name, not that I think too much, I want outsiders to know that sooner or later Zilin is a mountain field, what kind of crooked thoughts should his father and stepmother think of to tell your eldest brother that he didn't write a genealogy at the beginning, not count, re-recorded in the family tree, your eldest brother can't force others to separate father and son, asked Zilin, he just took the documents that he had passed at the beginning, as well as the Chinese and Jiangnan Su family's other two rooms as a guarantee, then that's fine, with this your eldest brother can be the master now, if his father finds it, it has already entered the family tree, and it can be changed indiscriminatelyFor this, I asked your eldest brother to find the old lady to testify, that is, the only old man in the Su family who is alive, and the ancestral hall will be opened the day after tomorrow, so come when you are free, and be a witness. ”

Su nodded in response, and said with a smile: "I'm a virtuous lady of the imperial court, it's okay to let me be a guarantor, if the clan brother is willing, I can recognize Zhiyuan as a godson." ”

Tao also smiled and said: "You are addicted to being a godmother, I think if the princess can be the most suitable godmother for Zhiyuan, no one will dare to beat his father and son anymore." I can't see the mother of the original gamete out of the breath and want to recognize it, so that she gave birth to a litter of cubs, not without such an example, I heard my mother say when I was a child, there is a Jinshi, is not to marry the niece of the mother's family, and then contribute to the brother of the mother for the rest of his life, and then because they committed something, they went to prison, the family stepmother a few skimmed clear, what crimes are done by the original gamete, the money they fell, the original gamete did not live in prison for a few years and was gone, and he contributed to the brother of the mother and the queen for a lifetime, so I told your eldest brother about this, otherwise he didn't think so, he always felt that it was better to be recorded in the name of his father, and the family was reunited, this man thought things were simple, don't look at your eldest brother is a royal history, and I have seen the dirty things in other people's houses, but when it is the turn of my own family, I feel that everyone is a good person, why did Zilin come to Beijing and bring a succession paper? Why doesn't Zilin say that he is a mountain now? Don't you see the problem? I will tell your eldest brother in detail, and ask him if he is willing to watch Zilin be destroyed by his stepmother and father in the future? Your eldest brother nodded in agreement, that is, he agreed and said that I live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, so I asked your eldest brother, let Zilin be the master, if he is willing to recognize it, he will record it in his father's name, so that your eldest brother don't mess around, otherwise Zilin and his son will not even enter your door again. ”

Not to mention that she has lived for a long time, men just look outside, women look inside the house, Tao is also more than half a hundred, usually there are dirty and dark things in the inner house, and she knows everything she can hear and see. But the eldest brother just looks at the rules on the surface, and only then does he feel that it is serious for Zilin to recognize his father.
