"Yes, just do as you say! Go and invite the fifth lady to come over!" the old lady said approvingly, and became more and more fond of the Zhou family.

Avoiding the old lady, Zhou smiled gratefully at Yao Keqing, she could actually tell the old lady herself, in order to give herself the opportunity to get close to the old lady, she chose to let herself say.

Song Lanzhi arrived after a while, and the remaining panic on her face also retreated after coming into contact with Zhan's calm expression, "Granddaughter greets grandmother!"

Although Yao Keqing testified, it did not affect Song Lanzhi's status in the old lady's heart, and she still held her in her arms like a baby with her heart, and asked kindly, "Have you eaten?"

Song Lanzhi remembered her mother's instructions, and replied casually, "Mother let the kitchen stew elbows, but I was too tired of it, so I only ate Guiyu soup!

Zhan Shi glanced at Yao Keqing proudly, and saw that the old lady nailed Yao Keqing with a cannibalistic gaze, and felt even more happy.

Yao Keqing, who was still crying just now, was saying to Song Lanzhi with a look of disbelief at the moment, "Why did the fifth sister lie, you obviously went to Shuangqing Garden, obviously you ...... Obviously, you burned the old lady's painting...... I'll also invite you to eat shrimp dumplings......"

Song Lanzhi's eyes flickered, as if she couldn't bear it, but finally said toughly, "What I said is the truth, I really have been in my mother's house just now!"

Between Yao Keqing and Song Lanzhi, of course the old lady chose to believe her granddaughter, "Since Sister Zhi said that she hadn't been to you, what else do you have to say?"

Yao Keqing hung his head and didn't speak, the old lady pushed Song Lanzhi away, glared at Yao Keqing and said viciously, "Since I handed over the painting to you, I just want it, you either give me the painting or pay me 200,000 taels of silver!"

Presumably, the old lady had privately inquired about the market price of "Winter Banquet Map", so she quoted such a reasonable price.

Zhan knew that as long as Yao Keqing took out the 200,000 taels of silver, the old lady would take the money, and she would not pursue the matter of changing her paintings, so she helped, "Yes, the old lady also trusts you to hand over the painting to you, since you don't want to give the painting, then the silver is also made, we all know that you are a person who likes calligraphy and painting, and it is understandable that you are reluctant, but there is no reason to occupy the old lady's things in vain, so how about losing the silver to the old lady?" It should be bought from the old lady, the old lady is generous, and she loves the younger generation, she must agree, and the fourth young grandmother has a rich dowry, this little silver is nothing to you!"

The old lady also agreed with the last sentence, and asked Yao Keqing for money in the same voice as the Zhan family, "If you give me 200,000 taels of silver, I won't pursue this matter!" Otherwise, ......" The old lady said coldly, "Our Song family can't tolerate such a daughter-in-law with unclean hands and feet!"

"The painting really burned ......," Yao Keqing said, there is only one sentence.

"Then you will take the silver out! Why not treat it as filial piety to the old lady!" Zhan smiled.

Seeing Yao Keqing's pitiful appearance, Song Lanzhi couldn't bear it, but in the end, her worries about her mother prevailed, so she ruthlessly turned her head and stopped looking at Yao Keqing.

Although he knew that Yao Keqing had other plans, but seeing that the old lady and the Zhan family joined forces to oppress Yao Keqing like this, the Zhou family finally couldn't help it, "Mother, didn't you still say that the painting was a fake? Since it is a fake, it is only worth two or three thousand silver at most, why do you need two hundred thousand taels?"

Zhan Shi looked at Zhou Shi coldly, "I'm just guessing, maybe it's the real thing?"

Zhou looked directly at Zhan's gaze and said fearlessly, "If the Liu family sent the authentic handiwork, then where did the Liu family get it? The authentic work of the "Winter Banquet Map" is in the hands of the old lady!"

Even though it was finally identified that the destroyed "Winter Banquet Map" in the old lady's hand was a fake, the old lady always had a doubt in her heart: How could it become a fake when it was obviously a genuine work? At this moment, when Zhou said this, the old lady couldn't help but be suspicious!

Zhan Shi said with a look of surprise, "The master who appraised it at the beginning said that it was a fake in the hands of my mother! In this case, it is not surprising that the Liu family has a genuine handiwork in her hand!" Zhan Shi understands that as long as he bites the old lady to death is a fake, and now the authenticity has been destroyed, this black pot will not be able to deduct from himself, and the 200,000 taels of silver Yao Keqing will be compensated!

Zhan's helplessness, Zhou's couldn't take her, and couldn't help Yao Keqing, she was unwilling to shut up, the old lady saw this and understood the strangeness, but the painting was worth 200,000 taels of silver, for the sake of silver, the old lady didn't want to pursue the conspiracy, only asked Yao Keqing for money, as Zhan said, Yao Keqing was innocent, so he had the right to honor her, so what's the matter?

The old lady and the Zhan family took turns to lobby Yao Keqing, and the old lady even did not hesitate to intimidate Yao Keqing with Shen and divorce his wife, but Yao Keqing only covered his face with a handkerchief, and said nothing, the angry old lady was furious, grabbed the teacup and was about to fall to the ground, but she didn't expect the old lady to take a step early, and the crisp sound of porcelain landing had already sounded.

The old lady turned around angrily, and found that it was her favorite silk string that broke the vase by mistake, and couldn't help but be dissatisfied, "What's the matter?"

Silk String looked at the fragments on the ground, took the two booklets handed to her by Xian Xian without saying a word, and silently said to the old lady.

The one above is the register of all kinds of gifts and gifts received by the old lady for today's birthday banquet, and the one below is the account book of the old lady's private treasury, and many places on the two books are marked, the old lady compared them, and suddenly her hands began to tremble, pointing to the booklet and saying, "Bring me all these things!"

Silk String lowered her head and led Xian Xian down, passing by Yao Keqing, Xian Xian squeezed her eyes at Yao Keqing, and Yao Keqing gave her an arc that curled the corners of her mouth.

After reading this booklet, the old lady looked at Zhan's gaze with more disgust than at Yao Keqing's gaze, Song Lanzhi was a little flustered, and was about to lean over to look at the booklet, the old lady had already closed the booklet, and glanced at her warningly, Song Lanzhi was shocked, sat honestly, and didn't dare to move again!

Not long after the silk string went down, he led a group of rings to bring up all kinds of gift boxes, and there were dozens of kinds of things, and the originally spacious room also seemed crowded after these things were placed. Silk String personally opened the gift boxes one by one, revealing the objects inside, and everyone realized that the objects placed next to each gift box were exactly the same as the things contained in the box.

With the support of Silk String and Zhou's family, the old lady got up and "inspected" these things, and saw that the last one was a rare string of red gold East Pearls that she had worn only two days ago, picked up the string she had worn, and hurriedly handed over her copper hairpin with the slender man behind the silk string, and the old lady took it and swiped it the pearl, revealing the black and gray inside.
