Aunt Li greeted her in the courtyard, and when she saw that the two of them were back, she smiled and said, "The meals are almost ready, I was still thinking about when you will come back?" It's just right, you go to the meeting, and we'll have dinner later."

They have long regarded Aunt Li as their own mother, so they don't need to be polite. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Su Jin sent two paintings of his wife to the study.

Yan Qing smelled the aroma of the food, followed Aunt Li back to the kitchen, lifted the lid of the pot to take a look, and said happily: "Great, there is Dongpo meat to eat at night"

"Huh!" Aunt Li filled three bowls of rice, looked at Yan Qing with a smile, and said, "Look at you, like a little gluttonous cat."

Yan Qing smiled and replied, "Isn't that because Aunt Li is a good cook!" Just looking at it is mouth-watering."

"It's sweet in your mouth!" Aunt Li was amused and couldn't close her mouth.

Su Jin went to the study to put away the paintings, and also came to the kitchen to help serve the food.

The three of them sat in the hall and chatted while eating, Yan Qing told Aunt Li about today's affairs in the Li Mansion, but did not say anything about the part where Miss Li embarrassed them, and picked out interesting things to make Aunt Li happy.

Su Jin cooperated with his wife on the side, nodded when it came to agreement, and said a few words of his own opinion.

Aunt Li listened to what the two of them explained, and secretly relieved herself, it seems that Mr. Su and Xiaoqing went to the mansion to paint, and it was quite smooth.

After dinner, Su Jin went to the study to read.

Aunt Li asked Xiaoqing to be busy with herself, she cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and washed the dishes in the kitchen.

Yan settled the account book that was entered today, and then took ten taels of silver and walked out of the bedroom, just in time to see Aunt Li washing the dishes and coming in.

"Aunt Li!" Yan Qingdao, walked to her side, stuffed the silver into her hand, and then said with a smile: "This is ten taels of silver, five taels is this month's rent, and five taels of silver is our filial piety for your care and love for us."

"This..."Aunt Li didn't think about it, pushed it back, and said hurriedly: "How can I ask you for so much silver, it's hard for you to go to the mansion to paint every day." Besides, I don't have to worry about food and housing, and I don't have anything to buy on weekdays, what do I need so much silver for, Xiaoqing, listen to my aunt, you take it back, you keep it for yourself! ”

"Aunt Li, if you don't take this silver, you'll see us outside!" Yan Qing stuffed it back into Aunt Li's hand.

She saw Aunt Li's uneasy appearance when she took the silver, and said in a gentle tone: "Aunt Li, what you did for us, my husband and I didn't think it bothered you, you are just like us and Brother Li, and this silver is alimony for you."

"That..."Aunt Li heard Xiaoqing say this, and she did regard Mr. Su and Xiaoqing as her own children, since the children had this heart for her, she had no choice but to accept it.

Aunt Li held Yan Qing's hand and said more lovingly: "Then the aunt will accept it, if there is anything in the future, as long as the aunt still has a breath..."

"What did Aunt Li say!" Yan Qing interrupted her and said, "It's not early, I'll send you back to rest!" ”

"Alas! Good! Aunt Li smiled.

Yan Qing sent Aunt Li home, and when she came back, she and Su Jin washed and fell asleep.

On the second day, they waited at home for Gonggongzi to bring news, and the next family mansion he introduced to them didn't say which household?

Su Jin was not as anxious as his wife, he sat in the study and looked at the book seriously, without distractions, and soon left the matter of going to the mansion to paint.

It's been nearly half a morning.

Yan Qing estimated in his heart that Gonggongzi might have something to do today, and he would not come to send a letter of recommendation. Forget it, she breathed a sigh of relief, it's better to rest at home for a day!

She went to the study and took the four treasures of the study, returned to the courtyard, spread the paper on the table, opened it, and then studied the ink, ready to paint.

At this time, there were several knocks on the door outside the courtyard.

Yan Qing was happy when he heard this, and secretly thought that Gonggongzi had finally come.

"It's coming!" Yan Qing answered, and hurriedly opened the courtyard door for the people outside.

"Mrs. Su—" the woman standing outside the courtyard smiled politely.

"You...?" Yan Qing looked at this woman very familiarly, as if she had seen it there, in order to avoid embarrassment, she quickly recalled in her mind those painters who had only one side of the relationship when she set up a painting stall.

She remembered that this was the woman who accompanied her wife and waited for them to come out of the stall that day, and she couldn't help but secretly praise that she had actually found her house.

"Aunt Li, come in and sit..."Yan Qing said with a smile, invited her into the courtyard, and invited her to sit in the hall.

Aunt Li sat down, glanced at the room slightly, took the tea brought by Yan Qing, smiled and praised: "Mrs. Su has a good memory, she still remembers her old body."

Then he asked puzzledly: "Why didn't Mr. Su and Mrs. Su go to the painting stall?" Oh! The old man inquired from the teahouse Xiaoer, the residence of Mrs. Su and his wife, and he came to visit, didn't disturb you, right? ”

"Nope! It's too late for me to be happy! Yan Qing smiled, and when she talked about why she didn't go out of the painting stall, her eyes darkened, and she could only say that many things in this world were unpredictable.

She didn't want to explain the reason why the painting stall couldn't be found, so she smiled back and asked, "Aunt Li came to our couple today, is there anything wrong?" ”

"Hmm!" Aunt Li saw that Mrs. Su didn't want to mention the art stall anymore, and she didn't want to poke at the sadness of others, so she replied truthfully: "That's the case, the old man's mansion is running an embroidery village and a cloth shop.

In recent days, the business of the two families has plummeted, and the old lady blames the two masters for being too idle on weekdays and not focusing on business.

And the two ladies relied on the third master and the lady of my family for this matter, saying that it was not counted as eating and drinking in the house all day long, and in business, they never took care of it, let alone had half a snack."

Aunt Li said, her face and tone were full of distress for her third master and wife.

Although Yan Qing also felt injustice for the third master and his wife, the intrigue in the house had nothing to do with her and her husband.

Aunt Li saw what Mrs. Su was thinking, thinking about it, she coughed, and saw that Mrs. Su came back to her senses, she continued: "The old lady still protects the third master and the lady, but in order to block the mouths of the two masters and the ladies, the old lady also wants to prove that the third master and the lady of my family are not useless, and handed over the problem to the lady."

Hearing this, Yan Qing didn't need to ask to understand that the old lady wanted Mrs. Qing'er to take over the business of the two places for the time being, and she wanted Mrs. Qing'er to make some color and show it to the two masters and ladies who only didn't use their brains.

"What did the lady think of to save her business?" Yan Qing asked curiously.

Aunt Li thought of the method that her wife came up with, and smiled heartily: "Madame is very wise and has business brains, she wants to invite Mr. Su to go to the mansion and paint the clothes in the Zhuangzi and the shop, and then instruct the guys to take the clothes on these paintings and go to the mansions of those old customers for them to choose first, if they pick which one, the guy will take the appropriate size clothes and send them back to the house."
