The Duchess Lu Guo was angry in her heart, and she didn't want to disturb her son's painting, so she got up and left.

When she was about to leave the door of the study, Duchess Lu Guo saw the two Changqing people standing in front of the door, and suddenly her heart moved, she looked at her son and asked: "You tell your mother the truth, you never let the girls serve you closely, is it really because they have a headache and can't study?" Or is it because of the promise you made to Qiu Yu's mother and daughter back then?"

When An Shicheng heard this, he said to his mother sincerely: "I was seven years old at the time, and I can already remember some things. Moreover, the son has been taught by his parents since he was a child: if a person has no faith, he will not stand, and he must be honest and understand the retribution. The son did not dare to forget it for a day. ”

Duchess Lu Guo was secretly frightened, she only treated him as a child back then, thinking that the events of that day were just a fun thing for him, and the matter was over in the past, so she never seriously explained to him afterwards, but she didn't expect him to remember all the words he said that day.

The son's sincerity in this matter made her, a mother who was rich and noble, a little ashamed.

Duchess Lu couldn't help but shake her head and sighed: "What a stupid child...... Since you have to fulfill your promise, why not talk to your mother directly, and go around all these years, it is enough to think hard. ”

An Shicheng's face was red, and he said with a smile: "The son knows that although his mother inevitably has some knots due to the past, she still remembers her faith and keeps her promises in the end, so she doesn't need to be reminded by her son at all, so the son just needs to do his duty." ”

Duchess Lu Guo looked at her son's embarrassment and understood that her son was thin and difficult to speak out because of the matter related to her own marriage. So I've been looking for opportunities to beat the side drum to remind myself.

Duchess Lu Guo understands that she must pay attention to this matter, and she can't do whatever she likes and dislikes.

The son was not a three-year-old child who could be fooled by himself at will, and now he is a stubborn young offspring, a bad one, I am afraid that the image of his mother in his heart will collapse, and what he did was the duty of a gentleman, why should he stand in his way, not only made outsiders laugh, but also made him feel uneasy.

So Duchess Lu Guo smiled. solemnly said to An Shicheng: "Since you have the heart to repay your kindness and keep your promises. Mother will never stop it, but this marriage matter is related to your life's happiness, but your mother will not let you keep the so-called faith. It doesn't matter if the person is good or bad. I ruined my life in vain. So. Mother will take a serious look at this Qiu Ruyi, if she is a good person, it will be fine, if not. You will accept your heart, and your mother will ask for another lady for you. ”

An Shicheng got his mother's words, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he hurriedly said: "Son, thank your mother for your success." ”

Duchess Lu Guo waved her hand and said with a smile: "Whether it is successful or not, it is not with my mother, it depends on whether Qiu Ruyi is a person worthy of your actions." ”

An Shicheng smiled and said nothing, and when the Duchess of Lu Guo left, An Shicheng returned to the quiet room, sniffed a wisp of sandalwood, and felt much more relaxed, and completed the Guanyin statue in one go.

An Shicheng looked at the vivid Guanyin, and felt quite proud, so he asked Changqing and the two to help with color mixing, and waited for the ink to dry and color and dye it.

After Changqing and the others squeezed their eyebrows on the side, Changzhu finally opened his mouth and asked An Shicheng: "Gongzi really wants to give this Guanyin picture to Mrs. for worship?"

An Shicheng didn't want to ask such a question, so he raised his head and asked, "Is there anything wrong with this Guanyin statue I made?"

Changzhu and the two of them prevaricated with their eyes again, until An Shicheng frowned, and Changqing smiled and said: "This picture of Guanyin made by Gongzi is lifelike, and the treasure is dignified and loving, but it is just ...... Looking at this eyebrows, it is a little similar to Miss Ruyi of the Qiu family. ”

When An Shicheng heard this, he hurriedly looked down, and suddenly found that there was indeed a bit of Xiangqiu Ruyi, especially a pair of Danfeng eyes under the eyebrows of Guanyin Liuye, which was even more like Qiu Ruyi, the difference was that the Qiu Ruyi seen by his master and servant was almost full of anger, and in this portrait, it seemed to contain infinite affection in his eyes.

An Shicheng was suddenly embarrassed, his face burned, and then he turned his head to look, but Changqing and the others seemed to be fine, seriously busy with the work at hand, but there was some desire to cover up without three hundred taels of silver here.

An Shicheng was covering his ears and stealing the bell at this time, but he also knew that this Guanyin seemed to be unable to be sent, so he had to wait for the ink to dry and carefully put it away.

Besides, Duchess Lu Guogong returned to the courtyard and told Lu Guogong what she said to her son, and Lu Guogong agreed: "That's right, Cheng'er did the right thing this time." Our vein has been burdened with guilt and has been criticized for several lifetimes, so in this act, we must be honest and keep our promises, which is the foundation of our life. There is no need to be strict with the daughter of the Qiu family in terms of talent and appearance, as long as there is no fault in virtue. ”

Duchess Lu Guo smiled and said: "The concubine has her own sense of proportion in her body and mind. ”

At this time, the slave who sent the Qiu sisters home came over to report to Duchess Lu Guo, and couldn't help but tell Duchess Lu Guo how Qiu Ruyi rudely reprimanded Qiu Ruolan.

In fact, the servant didn't hear her sister's specific conversation, but because Qiu Ruolan's voice was subtle there, and Qiu Ruyi didn't deliberately lower her voice in anger, so they could hear a few words, and when they thought about it, they knew the general situation.

Duchess Lu listened carefully and was silent.

If it was in the past, Duchess Lu Guo naturally felt that Qiu Ruyi was bullying the weak and young sister, although she also had this speculation now, but more because she thought that what Qiu Ruolan did today was indeed inappropriate, and Qiu Ruyi was also smart to immediately detect that the problem was Qiu Ruolan.

Thinking of this, Duchess Lu Guo called the girl who served behind the screen that day to ask about the situation that day, and felt more and more that her prejudice against Qiu Ruyi was a little too much, so that it affected her judgment.

In the following days, Duchess Lu Guo did not invite the Qiu sisters to play again, but sent a few capable servants to go around to inquire about Qiu Ruyi - she had already excluded Qiu Ruyi from the choice of daughter-in-law, and naturally she had not bothered to inquire about her.

Although the Qiu sisters often go to the Lu Guogong Mansion, they don't go there every day, so they don't notice anything wrong, only the three Qiu sisters know it in their hearts.

Qiu Ruyi didn't have much thought about Lu Guogong's mansion, but now she can't go over, but it is rare to be relaxed, and she can accompany her mother more at home, and she is preparing to go to the suburbs of Beijing for a spring outing at this time.

It turned out that not long after that day, as if he had suddenly discovered his dereliction of duty, he hurriedly brought in the spring breeze, and after a few days of blowing vigorously, the weather became warmer.

After a few days, the spring became more and more harmonious, and the world seemed to change into green clothes overnight, and the flowers not only stopped in the rich and noble, but also began to walk to the market and the mountains and fields.

So the time for the spring outing has arrived.

Not only did the literati and elegant guests go out of the city in groups to chant poems and paint, but also ordinary people have gone out of the city to nature to feel the breath of spring.

And the past two years have been different from usual, under the guidance of Liu's daughter, everyone in the city has also rushed out to play in spring.

When Qiu Ruyi heard this, he couldn't hold it back.

Although she secretly followed her second brother out to play in the name of worshipping Buddha in previous years, her name was not right, and she had to be careful not to hide in front of outsiders at all times, so as not to be criticized, so she couldn't play to the fullest.

Now that he can go out to visit the spring in a bright and bright way, and he is still in the capital, of course Qiu Ruyi can cherish this opportunity, so he ran to his mother to talk about the spring.

Yu Shi had some concerns in his heart, and he was not very happy.

Although the scenery of the capital is civilized, and the daughter of the deep boudoir can also come out to play this season, but the young and beautiful woman is especially fond of causing some trouble outside, and this is not Shunyang City.

In fact, there are many people who have this kind of thought, so it is only the daughter of the Liu family and some powerful ladies that they can go out to visit the spring with great fanfare, and the daughters of small families dare not be so public, of course, there are also many of them who want to take this opportunity to get acquainted with the rich and noble, but generally good people pay attention to the rules, and few let their daughters show themselves in front of others.

Qiu Ruyi listened to her mother's concerns, and couldn't help sighing: "I can't complain that someone has sharpened their heads and wants to vote for the homes of the powerful, and they should be, so this will show benefits." ”

After saying a few sour words, Qiu Ruyi had no choice but to accept his fate.

However, Wang Qiao'er was not as close to herself as she used to be because of these days, so she wanted to alleviate the relationship with her sister-in-law, but Yu really pouted in front of him, and said that he could play with everyone in the Wang family.

Yu Shi saw that his daughter had become wilted in the past few days because of the failure of You Chun, and when he heard his daughter-in-law Jian yì, he really felt a little active in his heart.

How do you know that Qiu Ru has repeatedly tried to inquire about family affairs in the Wang family, and he was a little proud at first, but because he has some opinions about Wang Qiaoer recently, he has some resistance to this inexplicably, so he is not willing to play with the Wang family, so after thinking about it, he still decided not to go.

Wang Qiao'er got the news and knew that Qiu Ruyi was still angry with herself, and she saw that her mother-in-law seemed to be not as good as she used to be to herself, and she couldn't help but sigh that she really shouldn't have had many things to do that day, and she was busy working for a long time, and she was not a person inside and out.

Wang Qiaoer couldn't help but be discouraged, her body felt weak, and she lost her spirit, and she was always lazy.

When Qiu Ruyuan saw it, he thought that his wife was sick, but he was in a hurry, so he was going to ask the doctor to come that night.

Wang Qiao'er hurriedly persuaded: "It's just that the spirit is a little shorter, and it's not a major illness, so it's not too late to invite you early tomorrow morning." ”

Qiu Ruyuan also loves his wife very much, seeing that his wife does not have any major symptoms, and seeing that it is curfew outside, he has no choice but to give up, and when his wife sleeps, he has to attack the slaves and maids in the house.

Qiu Ruyuan didn't dare to blame his mother, but he had to complain about his sister in his heart, so early the next morning, he ordered someone to invite the doctor. (To be continued......)
