At this moment, everyone was attracted by the woman who was too beautiful to be in the world, and the restlessness of the crowd naturally stopped, and there was no need to even rush to persuade Zhuang Yu to separate.

These few seconds of silence were not broken until Zhuang Yuoci reached out and picked up the painting that was about to fall to the ground, folded it in half, and put it away.

His actions were so natural that no one on either side of the dispute stopped him.

Qiao Yu naturally wanted to get her painting back, but at this moment she realized that because of this painting, today's banquet actually became like this, and her guilt must be not light, and she must have caused trouble for the family today. Because of this, she didn't dare to ask Zhuang Yuoci to get her painting back, so she could only stare at Zhong Yun hatefully.

Instead, Ye Dongshen stepped forward with a smile, "Uncle Zhuang, I haven't seen you for a long time, you look younger and younger." ”

Zhuang Youci has always been smiling and welcoming, but at this time, he saw Ye Dongshen come up, glanced at him, ignored him, only looked around at everyone, and said, "Really?" I see you are going back and forth as you live. What's going on? The tone was still gentle and unhurried, but it made several families break out in a cold sweat.

When the old man Zhuang was not a director for a long time, and the eldest grandson of the Zhuang family had not yet grasped the authority, the second Zhuang Yue of the Zhuang family was more famous in Kyoto than his eldest brother Zhuang Yuoyan, who only knew the wind and snow, and basically represented the Zhuang family. But this is not the most important reason why people fear him.

And the most important reason for this is that the position in which Zhuang Yue resigned was in charge of the promotion of officials.

The children of these families know best how to weigh interests. In that dispute just now, everyone has a share, and the law does not blame the public, so even if there is punishment, it will not be too heavy. But at this time, whoever refutes or explains first will be the first to come out, and of course these spirits will not do it. Besides, what happened just now was seen by so many waiters around, and sooner or later the Zhuang appointment would get the most detailed report, and there was no need for them to say anything. The Chen family's faction would not explain that it was actually the party that took advantage, and the Zhong family's side would not take the initiative to admit their mistakes, and the scene froze for a while.

Fortunately, Zhuang Yuci didn't plan to delve into it, but said: "The banquet will start in half an hour, let's have a good meal, I won't say anything else, just remember what day it is." ”

Zhuang Yu gave the steps, and everyone took the opportunity to answer. For a while, the scene was lively and peaceful, as if the dispute just now had not happened.

However, the banquet, which seemed to be as calm as usual, had completely deviated from the theme at this time.

The mysterious woman in the painting aroused everyone's curiosity.

Qiao Yu watched Zhuang Yuoci take her painting away, and her heart hurt to death, but she didn't dare to ask for it back. And beside her, the people who gathered just now were not only not less, but more.

They all had only one common question, pestering Qiao Yu to ask about the identity of the person in the painting.

In the field, the few people who had seen He Wei all helped Qiao Yu cover up, quietly separated Qiao Yu from the crowd, and found another secluded place to speak.

Mu Jing's eldest brother, Mu Sheng, had previously felt that the expressions of several people were wrong.

When other people expressed doubts about the woman in the painting, Chen Zhaoan, the Zhuang sisters, and Ye Dongshen, their expressions were clearly recognizable.

"You all know the people in the painting?"

Zhuang Yiyue clasped her hands on her chest and glanced at Chen Zhaoan obliquely before she said to Mu Sheng: "Isn't she that He Wei?" The last time we saw it at the racecourse, it was when Aji was injured. ”

Mu Sheng was taken aback, and then frowned.

In fact, before Chen Zhi participated in the mission, he had entrusted him to help take care of a person, who was He Wei. Chen Zhi said that he didn't need to worry about He Wei's life, he just needed to lend a helping hand when He Wei's help signal came to protect her safety.

Mu Sheng knew about the marriage contract between the Chen family and the Zhuang family, and persuaded two sentences, but Chen Zhi was not willing to listen to it, and seemed to have other plans. Mu Sheng had confidence in Chen Zhi and felt that he should be measured, so he still agreed to Chen Zhi.

But if he knew that He Wei was like this, no matter what he said at the beginning, he would definitely not interfere in He Wei's affairs.

I'm afraid that when the time comes, Chen Zhi will do something stupid for He Wei, which will not only affect the relationship between the Zhuang and Chen families, but also the Mu family.

But at this time, he had already agreed, and he couldn't complain that Chen Zhi had pulled him onto the boat, so he could only find a way to reduce the possible losses caused by this incident.

Mu Sheng asked, "Do the elders in your family know about this?" What do they say? ”

Zhuang Yiyue said angrily: "Now that the Azhi people are not there, He Wei can't find anyone." What can be said? ”

When Mu Sheng heard this, he knew that the elders on both sides already knew about it, and obviously planned to put it on hold for the time being and deal with it after Chen Zhi came back.

In this way, Mu Sheng felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it for a while.

The dealer gave the Chen family face and was not aggressive, but how could the Chen family do something to show their sincerity, why did they have no movement like now, and only said that it would be shelved?

In this kind of marriage, it stands to reason that they will not accommodate Chen Zhi, and will even take advantage of his departure to solve the potential troubles in one fell swoop. If you don't do it because you can't find He Wei, it's a joke. As soon as the head of the Chen family made a move, who were he really looking for, but he couldn't find it?

Thinking of this, Mu Sheng was stunned.

Could it be that Old Man Chen, the actual ruler of the Chen family, also knows Chen Zhi's decision?

The more Mu Sheng thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.

Then he relaxed. Since they have to stand in line, the Mu family will inevitably stand on the side of the Chen family in the future. He was originally worried that if he really helped He Wei one day, he would offend the Chen family, but now that Chen Zhi has the support of Old Man Chen, then Mu Sheng will have no worries about helping people.

Mu Sheng saw everyone's reaction to the woman in the painting just now. It is definitely not a good thing that He Wei is coveted by so many people. Once she shows her face at this time, it will invite trouble from all sides. Although the Chen family and the Mu family are powerful, it is difficult to deal with them in the face of endless emergence, and even some people are fishing in troubled waters. For now, it is to let He Wei hide well, until Azhi comes back, and if there is any decision, we will talk about it at that time.

After making up his mind, Mu Sheng comforted Qiao a few words, promised to help her get the painting back, and left to deal with the follow-up.

On the other side, after Zhuang Yuoci took the painting away, he hurried into the office and locked the door.

He opened the painting and looked intently at the person on it.

How could he not recognize it?

Although he was only eight years old when his mother died, he never forgot what her mother looked like.

Such a unique appearance in the world is simply a miracle.

It's exactly the same as the one in the painting.

This painting is from Qiao Yu's hand, but Qiao Yu can't have seen his mother Jin You, and it is impossible to see Jin You from any photos. At that time, cameras were not as common as they are now, and if you wanted to take a picture, you had to call a special person to come over. Before Jin You met Old Man Zhuang in his early years, because of her appearance, he suffered a lot in the troubled times. Later, when the days were comfortable, she only nested in the dealer's house, did not like to meet people, did not like to go out to socialize, and did not want to leave a photo to accidentally circulate and cause unnecessary trouble. But later, Jin You was seriously ill, and Old Man Zhuang wanted to go with her. Jin You painted his makeup, took pictures, and finally left a thought for Old Man Zhuang, only asking him to take care of his children and take care of them.

Those photos are the most precious things for Mr. Zhuang, when he was a child and played with his friends, he inadvertently broke into the study and was almost killed.

Since then, the dealer has a forbidden place that no one, including the Zhuang family, is allowed to step into.

So, Qiao Yu still drew this look, does it mean that she has seen another person.

And it is inevitable that only the direct descendants of Jin You can fully inherit her appearance.

Zhuang Yiwei.

Zhuang Yue thought that it must be her.

Even if Zhuang Yiwei looked like an African refugee in the past, but now she has become this immortal, Zhuang Yueci can be so sure.

Because of his wet nurse, a subordinate who has served Jin You for half his life told him, Jin You has been similar to Zhuang Yiwei since he was a child, and after he was eighteen years old, he suddenly changed his appearance for some reason. A woman with the blood of the Jin family, there will be an occasional case where such a beauty will appear. It's just that this kind of thing is too unbelievable, so the Zhuang family has never talked about it to outsiders, and when Zhuang Yiwei is a little older, he doesn't let her go out of the country much, just hoping that she can really transform.

In fact, at that time, although the nurse said that Zhuang Yiwei would change, only the people in the big house would be suspicious but had to believe it, and he completely scoffed, but later, on the eve of Zhuang Yiwei's eighteenth birthday, he suddenly said that he was seriously ill and was sent away, and he began to worry.

He suspected that Old Man Zhuang knew his thoughts, so he deliberately sent Zhuang Yiwei away, in the name of recuperation, but in fact, he secretly protected him, diverted his attention, and made him relax his vigilance.

Many doubts in the past have finally been answered now.

No wonder, Zhuang Yiwei is only weaker, why did she suddenly say that she was seriously ill and sent to a foreign country. And when he wanted to visit Zhuang Yiwei, he was blocked.

It turned out that it was because the person was missing, not sick.

And Zhuang Yiwei's disappearance is such a big thing, no one sued him, it can be seen that he is guarding against him. Hum!

Zhuang Yuoci doesn't think that Old Man Zhuang is hiding Zhuang Yiwei, because, if you really want to solve the trouble completely, although marrying Zhuang Yiwei to the Chen family is fundamental, after all, Zhuang Yiwei has become like this, and it is definitely not rude to be the daughter-in-law of the Chen family. But the dealer came back after Chen Zhi did a great job, and he didn't mention it, so it can be seen that they don't know about Zhuang Yiwei's news.

Zhuang Yueci's mind was running at high speed. He didn't know why Zhuang Yiwei didn't find the dealer, but since she could recognize Qiao Yu, it must have something to do with the big family. I'm afraid that her appearance will be inadvertently seen by those old things, and it will be troublesome.

How the person disappeared, Zhuang Yu will ignore it for the time being. What he has to do now is to make Zhuang Yiwei never appear in front of people. The marriage between the Zhuang family and the Chen family must be maintained, but this marriage candidate can only be his daughter.

Zhuang Yuoci tore the painting apart and flushed it down the toilet.

The painting cannot be circulated. Although there are only a very few people who have seen Jin You, and they are all big people who are too old to come out and walk around, if they find out, they will definitely sue the old man Sùzhuang. Then, his plan will come to naught.

Zhuang Yuci is very clear, on the surface, he is the current principal of the Zhuang family, but in fact, the most important power is still in the hands of Old Man Zhuang, and he can't fight Old Man Zhuang.

Now, it's important to start first.

Zhuang Yuoci thought about it, at today's banquet, many older generations were present, for the sake of caution, he had better use an excuse to gather these people first, and he must not let them meet people who should not be seen.

Although this is inevitably too careful, it is always possible to be cautious.
