Chapter 174: Release
After hearing this, Yan Qing looked at Zhuang Gongzi and saw that he was just looking at the calligraphy and paintings! She asked rhetorically, "Where did you see that?"
"When I came to the gallery, I guessed it. Pen~Fun~ Sister www.biquge.info Ge Yan, do you and Mr. Su need enough patience to teach a foolish boy how to paint?" Fang Xinrong looked at the foolish boy who was quite serious about watching calligraphy and painting.
Yan Qing smiled and replied: "Zhuang Gongzi is really not stupid in painting, it is indeed as Mr. Zhuang said, he has a high talent, which makes me and my husband look at him with admiration."
On the second day after Zhuang came to the private school to learn painting, when Mr. Zhuang came to pick him up in the evening, he brought two boxes of precious medicinal herbs to Mr. Su and Mrs. Su.
Su Jin pushed back twice, but he couldn't match Mr. Zhuang's wishes, so he had to accept the gift and use it to make up for his wife's body.
As winter approaches, the weather is getting colder and colder. Two days passed, and it was the day of the beginning of winter.
Yan Qing still nests in the private school every day to teach Zhuang Gongzi to learn to paint, and while sewing winter clothes, the children rushed to the beginning of winter, and they all wore new clothes as they wished, and they were very happy.
Because of the beginning of winter today, the children said that they wanted to eat dumplings, and at the noon table, two large pots of dumplings were served.
In addition, in addition to today's day of the beginning of winter, Yan Qing still remembers that today is also the March review conference of Qifu.
In the hall, Zhuang Luo was seriously painting. There was a newly purchased stove in the house, and there was no cold smell outside. Yan Qing was sewing her husband's winter coat in her hand, and suddenly thought about Mrs. Qi's affairs, wondering if Mrs. Qi had saved the business in Wanfu?
"Master!" Zhuang Luo finished painting a "Flower Garden Frolic", put down the pen, picked up the painting and obediently handed it to his sister. Seeing that her sister took the painting, he breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the pen again, and drew on the paper by himself.
Yan Qing meticulously watched this "Flower Garden Frolic" character painting, on the figure painting, Zhuang Gongzi got the advice of the husband, the painting skills have been gradually improved, the painting two girls chased a few butterflies to the flower garden, quiet and beautiful courtyard corner of the famous flowers. The two girls are innocent and childish.
"Well, the brushstrokes are smooth and round, and the towering Taiyun stone next to the flower garden looks thick and moist and three-dimensional, and the famous flowers are outlined and colorful, and Zhuang Gongzi's painting is very good!" she commented.
Zhuang Miao smirked, took away the piece of paper that his subordinates had drawn, and continued to draw the modern paintings that his master had taught him.
In the evening, Mr. Zhuang came to pick up Mr. Zhuang and brought them and the children special snacks from Kyushu Prefecture. Maybe it's because of the cold winter, the children's appetite has increased greatly, and they've been craving snacks and the like lately.
Yan Qing took a snack for the children to eat, and told them to wash their feet and go to bed quickly, she saw that Wen Jing's footwashing water seemed to be cold, got up and prepared to bring some hot water, went out of the room and closed the door, and when she was about to walk to the kitchen door, she suddenly heard a knock on the door outside the private school.
Su Jin stayed in the room to paint, and when he heard a knock on the door, he also walked out.
"Husband, I'll go and drive, Aunt Li and Uncle Feng are here!" Yan Qing guessed in his heart that it was Aunt Li and Uncle Feng, and walked to the front yard after thinking about it.
Su Jin also followed behind her and came to the front yard together.
"It's coming!" Yan Qing told Aunt Li not to worry, she came to open the door, but she didn't expect that as soon as the courtyard door opened, the people standing in front of her were not Aunt Li and Uncle Feng.
"Who are you?" Yan Qing glanced at the two women in blue and gray jackets.
"Hello Mr. Su! Hello Mrs. Su!" The two women smiled and saluted Su Jin and Yan Qing first, and then the beautiful woman smiled and said: "We are the maids on the third prince of Qi Mansion. At the moment, she was having a banquet in the house, and Sister Li was serving with her, and she couldn't get out. The third lady has explained, this time to save the business of Wanfu, all because of Mr. Su and Mrs. Su's help, the third lady entrusted us to send a lot of money to thank Mr. Su and Mrs. Su, I hope the two must accept it"
Yan Qing looked at the other aunt holding a square sandalwood box in her hand, and heard that they knew that Mrs. Qi's affairs were so clear, it was indeed from Qi's mansion, but even Mrs. Qi and Aunt Li personally sent a lot of money, and they couldn't accept it, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qi is polite, but it's just a few paintings, and you don't have to work for the two aunts to send a lot of money!"
If we let the third prince and the third lady know that we are not doing well, we will be punished. Heavily... This is the kindness of the son and the lady, and I hope that Mr. Su and Mrs. Su will not be disappointed!" the woman said, handing out the sandalwood box.
Su Jin and Yan Qing helped people do things and collected a lot of money, they were two ingots of silver that they could see and touch, and it was naturally not an exaggeration for them to accept them, but this... , It wasn't sent by Mrs. Qi personally, how could she dare to accept the so-called heavy money lightly? This is too expensive.
"Sir, madam, take it! It's not too early now, and the third prince and the third lady are still waiting for us to go back to the house!" the woman urged them.
"This..."Yan Qing looked at her husband, and understood what he meant, so she had to agree first and smiled: "Okay then! I won't embarrass you, we will accept this heavy money for the time being! Recently, when I have time, I will return it to the third prince and the third lady as it is."
The two women laughed, and one of them praised: "Mr. Su and Mrs. Su are really kind-hearted! The third lady has done what she told us, and we should go home."
"Okay!" Yan Qing sent them and said, "The two aunts go slowly"
Su Jin and Yan Qing sent away the two women from the Qi Mansion, and they returned to the private school with a box of heavy gold, and she put the heavy money in the storage cabinet under the wardrobe, thinking that she would send it back to Mrs. Qi in a few days.
In this way, neither of them put their minds on heavy money anymore.
Su Jin finished a landscape painting and calligraphy under his hand, and then read the book.
Yan Qing went to the children's house, told them stories, coaxed them to sleep, and went back to his house.
She has been pregnant for more than a month and a half, except for some pregnancy symptoms and Aunt Li's husband to condition her body, Yan Qing doesn't seem to feel that she is a pregnant woman. The winter coat sewn for her husband today, there are still two sleeves left that are not sewn, and before going to bed at night, I always want to stay up all night, sew and then go to bed.
Yan Qing sewed a few stitches seriously, then raised her head to look at her husband, and thought of it: "I haven't been to the gallery for a few days, and I want to go to the gallery tomorrow."
"It's good to go out and walk around! Now that the winter weather is cold, it is necessary for the lady to wear more clothes!" Su Jin came back to his senses from the book and replied to his mother's words.
"yes, I know! Zhuang Gongzi will also go to the gallery with me tomorrow! I can rest assured if I take him by my side. The husband teaches the children, how can he have time to take care of him!" Yan Qing proposed again.
Hearing this, Su Jin put down the book and turned to look at her, thought for a moment and said, "For the husband, I think it is more appropriate for Gongzi Zhuang to stay in the private school..."
"Okay! I know what you're thinking, don't worry, husband! I won't let Zhuang Gongzi leave my side for half a step, and I will be extra careful, except for private schools and art galleries, I won't go anywhere on such a cold day."
"Hmm!" Su Jin saw that his lady had decided to take Zhuang Gongzi to the art gallery, presumably it would be useless for him to say more, as long as the lady was careful in everything, he had nothing to worry about.
The two of them decided on the matter, and they were busy with their own things, and they didn't say a word.
By this moment, the night was getting deeper.
Yan Qing insisted on sewing the sleeves of the robe on both sides, twisted the knot neatly, put away the needle and thread, took the freshly sewn winter coat and walked to Su Jin's side and said: "It's late at night, husband, don't read anymore, come, you try on this winter robe first, see what doesn't fit?"
Su Jin put down the book, complied with his mother's wishes, got up and put on a winter robe, stretched out his arms, and allowed his lady to take a good look, he smiled with satisfaction: "Every piece of clothing that the lady sews for her husband just fits, and the same is true of this robe on her body."
"It just fits! When I sew, I deliberately made it a little bigger!" Yan Qing said playfully, helping her husband untie his clothes.
Outside, a bright moon hung high in the night sky. Although the nights are longer and the days are shorter in winter, the time of the children's morning wake-up and morning reading does not change.
At the end of the day, Mr. Zhuang sent Zhuang to the private school, but because he was still in a hurry, he left in a hurry without sending his son to the private school.
left in a hurry, and Yan Qing didn't have time to tell Mr. Zhuang about taking Zhuang Gongzi to the art gallery. They wrapped the paintings that Su Jin had made recently, and she took Zhuang Gongzi to the gallery together.
The streets are full of people and traffic, and everywhere you go is a lively scene.
The carriage stopped in front of the gallery. After getting off the car, he felt a cold, Yan Qing tightened his clothes, took the calligraphy and paintings in the carriage, and was picked up by Zhuang Gongzi.
"Zhuang Gongzi, this is the art gallery, let's go! Let's go in!" Yan Qing said to him with a smile.
"Okay!" Zhuang Luo looked at the signboard of the gallery and the hall in a daze, and then timidly glanced around the street, and followed the master into the gallery in a panic.
Aunt Li served tea to the painter, and when she was about to add tea to Mr. Li, she happened to see Xiaoqing coming to the gallery. She happily added tea for Mr. Li, hurriedly put down the teapot, approached Yan Qing and asked warmly: "Xiaoqing, it's very cold outside, you don't stay in the private school, what are you doing in the gallery?"
Yan Qing smiled and said, "Aunt Li don't have to worry! I brought my husband's recent paintings. Besides, I haven't been to the gallery for a few days, and I miss you. How's the gallery's business lately?"
If it weren't for your Uncle Feng's physical discomfort these days, my aunt would have gone to the private school to see you!" Aunt Li said to Mr. Feng, her face was still a little worried.
"What's wrong with Uncle Feng? He's resting at home now! I'll go see him in the afternoon!" Yan Qing also became nervous when he saw Aunt Li's worried look.
"He's on the second floor! I insisted that it was nothing, but my stomach was upset, and I asked the doctor to show him, and said that he had not eaten a meal before, and he had a problem!" Aunt Li shook her head, not wanting to say more, she saw that Xiaoqing was not holding a calligraphy or painting in her hand, so she asked, "Huh, didn't you say that you brought calligraphy and painting?"
Yan Qing reacted, smiled and turned around and introduced: "Aunt Li, this is Zhuang Gongzi, who has been learning to paint with me and my husband in a private school recently. Zhuang Gongzi, don't be afraid! This is also the place of the teacher's mother, come! This is grandma, she is very good, the osmanthus cake you ate last time was made by grandma and teacher's wife."
"Xiaoqing, is this Zhuang Gongzi?" The more Aunt Li looked at him, the more she felt that something was wrong, how could a normal child of such a big age be afraid of people? She smiled and stepped forward to Zhuang Gongzi, ready to take the calligraphy and painting in his arms.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Luo took a step back, hugged the calligraphy and painting tightly in his arms, lowered his head and didn't look at the grandmother in front of him.
"This..."Aunt Li paused, looking at Xiao Qing and not knowing what to do?
Yan Qing knew that Zhuang Gongzi had come to a strange environment, and it was normal for him to be timid and cowardly and hide behind her for a while, after all, Mr. Zhuang was not by his side. She smiled slightly and said to Aunt Li: "Aunt Li, don't be surprised! Get along with each other for a day today, and you will be fine! You go get busy first! I will take the calligraphy and paintings to the second floor, just to see Uncle Feng."
Aunt Li answered, looked at the stunned Zhuang Gongzi, and went to serve tea and pour water in confusion.
Yan Qing saw that Xinrong's sister was busy wrapping calligraphy and paintings, and she had to keep accounts after receiving the money, she and Xinrong glanced at each other and smiled, and directly took Zhuang Gongzi to the second floor.
On the second floor, there were no less than downstairs in the hall to watch the paintings and calligraphy, and when she went upstairs, she saw Wen Jie and Uncle Feng entertaining the painters to look at the paintings and calligraphy.
She first sent the calligraphy and paintings she brought to the art library, and then asked Zhuang Gongzi to sit obediently in Uncle Feng's position, and she also went to entertain the painters.
The visitors decided to buy the paintings and went downstairs.
Yan Qing walked up to Uncle Feng and asked with concern: "Uncle Feng, is your health better?" If you are not feeling well, you have to rest at home, why do you still come to the art gallery!
"I'm fine!" Feng Zicheng replied with a grinding smile: "It's just an old disease! Since I came to the art gallery and got to know you, under the careful care of Sister Li, this problem is very rare."
"It's okay to have nothing to do!" Yan Qing looked at Uncle Feng's complexion was not bad, since it was no big deal, she could also put her mind at ease, and said with a smile: "Then Uncle Feng is busy first! I'll go downstairs and take a look."
"Okay, you go!" Feng Zicheng finished grinding and began to prepare to paint.
Yan Qing called Zhuang Gongzi, who was watching calligraphy and painting, to come to Uncle Feng and Wen Jie, introduce each other, and then took Zhuang Gongzi downstairs.
In front of the counter, painters are lining up to pay the bill, holding calligraphy and paintings.
Zhuang Luo followed Shi Niang downstairs, his face was not as timid as when he first came, and his eyes seemed to be full of curiosity about this place.
"Zhuang Gongzi!" Yan Qing saw that he wanted to go to the painting area to watch the calligraphy and paintings, and smiled at him and said, "If you want to go, you can go over!
"Well... Okay!hey!" Zhuang Luo nodded happily and trotted to the painting area.
