Mingzhu was so anxious that she was angry, and these two people were the same, which made Mingzhu very annoyed. Mingzhu stared at Yue Yao and said viciously: "Explain the matter to me clearly, otherwise, I will turn against you." "Yue Yao didn't say anything last time, but this time she has to figure it out.

Yueyao Nunu mouthed, looked at Xiang Wei and said: "I just asked her to show the painting to that Xiangru that day, as for what happened later, I don't know, you ask her!" Yue Yao roughly guessed what Xiang Wei had done.

Xiang Wei immediately disguised her as a man to Xunfang Pavilion, and then chatted with Xiangru for a while: "I saw that she was quite pitiful and self-reliant, so I relented for a while and promised that after she left Xunfang Pavilion in the future, if there was no way out, she could come to the capital to find me." ”

The biggest mistake Xiang Wei made was to lose the prudence she should have. Imagine whose guard would be so loud that he could help an Oiran. Of course, this is also Xiang Wei's habit of being the master of the house, so when she speaks, she has a bit of a family tone. The bustard's mother in the Qinglou welcomes guests every day, her eyes are so sharp, and she is in the skin and meat business, can she still find out the identity of Xiang Wei's woman? Later, I listened to the words of the maid next to Xiangru, and knew what Xiang Wei and Xiangru were talking and chatting, and immediately guessed that it was Yueyao.

Although the bustard's mother knew about it, she kept silent. When this news spreads, it will do them more harm than good. After all, if they ruin Mrs. Lian's reputation, then Mrs. Prefect, no, Mrs. Inspector will be able to spare them. It's just that when He Feng said this, many people came to verify it, and she couldn't resist the coercion and temptation to tell the matter.

Mingzhu was so angry that she said that Yue Yao would not do such a ridiculous thing, it turned out that it was not Yue Yao who went to the Qinglou at all, but the Qinglou who went to Xiang Wei. Mingzhu scolded Xiang Wei at the moment: "You actually swaggered into the Qinglou with Yueyao's painting?" You want to kill Yueyao, don't you? Do you know how bad it is out there right now? Yes? Those people rumored that Yueyao was thinking of a man, so they ran to the Qinglou to find Xiaoqi......, "There is something even more ugly than this, saying that Yueyao even hooked up with Niu Yanghui." Well, anyway, the rumors out there are as bad as they can be.

Xiang Wei lowered her head and didn't dare to say a word.

Mingzhu continued to scold loudly: "If my cousin knows about this, do you know what will happen?" If my cousin believes that these rumors are true, it is possible that Yueyao will be divorced. You, you, I'm going to be by you. This time, Yueyao will also be killed by you. "It's just a matter of doing nonsense on weekdays, but it's still so flamboyant, and now it's really harmful.

Xiang Wei's face was as white as paper. She didn't expect that she would be careless and cause such a big trouble. Xiang Wei said to herself: "I knew that the bitch was ruthless and unrighteous, but I didn't expect that I naively believed that this woman was good." The comfortable life made her lose her vigilance, so she made such a mistake. Just imagine, which of these Oiran is a fuel-efficient lamp, she can easily believe it.

Xiang Wei had murderous intent in her heart.

Yueyao is the roundworm in Xiang Wei's stomach, and after listening to Xiang Wei's words, she knows what she wants to do: "If you kill Xiangru and Lao Bustard now, it will only make others think that we are killing people." That way, my reputation would be completely gone. ”

Xiang Wei ran out of ideas for the first time: "Then what should I do?" ”

Mingzhu scolded hatefully: "What do you know to do now?" Didn't you think about the consequences when you first went to the Qinglou? actually disguised herself as a man to go to the Qinglou, there is really nothing in this world that you dare not do. ”

Yue Yao persuaded on the side: "Forget it, everything has happened, it's too late to say this now...... "This matter is too big, it is different from the previous ones, it must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise, her reputation will really be ruined."

When Mingzhu heard this, she no longer scolded Xiang Wei, but scolded Yueyao instead: "It's all you for, everything is indulged in her, even if she doesn't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, even if she doesn't know how many catties and taels she weighs." Something is wrong now, right? Yes? I'm telling you, regret is useless. Mingzhu thinks that Xiang Wei is wrong, but the biggest fault is Yueyao. If you are a master, you should have the appearance of a master, and now the master is not like a master, and the servant is not like a servant, so this will cause trouble.

Xiang Wei scolded Mingzhu so much that she couldn't apologize with death.

Yueyao looked very calm from beginning to end, even if Mingzhu said that An Zhichen would divorce her, her expression was also very calm.

Mingzhu looked at Yueyao's expression and became more and more angry, and her eyebrows were burned, this woman didn't know what was in her mind at all, "Don't rely on your cousin to like you, just think that nothing happened." If my cousin divorces you, you won't have time to cry. Speaking of this, seeing that Yueyao was still indifferent, she scolded again: "You are really not in a hurry for the emperor and the eunuch, ah?" When the time comes, maybe the front foot will take you off, and the back leg will marry another one. Kexin's four sisters and brothers will have to be abused by their stepmother at that time, and the four children will be abused to death by their stepmother, and you will be satisfied. The more Mingzhu talked, the more angry she became, she had always felt that Yueyao was quite capable, she was so convinced, look at what she is doing now!

Yue Yao heard Mingzhu cursing the four children, and she couldn't maintain her peace anymore, she frowned and said, "It's a shadow, what are you doing with the children!" ”

Mingzhu looked at Yue Yao's expression, and was half angry again: "I'm almost angry, you're good, as if this matter has nothing to do with you." ”

Yue Yao smiled: "What's the hurry." It's not the Xunfang Pavilion that I went to, and when the time comes, people will know that I haven't been to the Xunfang Pavilion, it's the people who are looking for the Fang Pavilion who made it up, and the rumors are self-defeating. ”

Mingzhu said angrily: "Where is this so easy? ”

Yue Yao said: "It's hard to say this, and it's easy to say. If it was other rumors, she wouldn't pay attention to them, but when it came to four children, she couldn't be cautious.

Mingzhu saw that Yueyao already had an idea in her heart, but she was at ease: "It is said that there are three stinkers, and one Zhuge Liang can be sunburned." Say, what ideas do you have, and if there is something inappropriate, we will fix it again. ”

Yue Yao's idea was very simple, that is, to let the person who went to find Fang Pavilion that day appear, and she also appeared on a certain occasion, and the rumors were self-defeating: "The difficulty now is that it is difficult to find someone who is similar to Xiang Wei's height and appearance." ”

Xiang Wei understood what Yueyao meant: "What do you mean to find a man to pretend to be like me that day, and then you will have a banquet with Mingzhu in the mansion." Xiang Wei didn't dare to recommend herself again this time.

Yue Yao nodded: "This is the safest way." The hardest thing to find now is this stand-in. "Without this stand-in, everything is in vain. This time, the main thing is to refute the rumors, and there is no way to get out of the pool, so it must be a man to appear, and not Xiang Wei to play. Otherwise, if someone verifies it, it turns out that Xiang Wei is a woman, even if it is not herself, but the people around her will also damage her reputation.

Xiang Wei was also stunned just now, and at this time she had returned to normal: "Actually, it's not difficult. I didn't look the same day after my makeup. As long as you find someone who is about the same height as me and has a similar face shape to me, it's not very difficult. ”

Mingzhu has a different opinion: "The people in the Qinglou have vicious eyes, and they can't tell that they are not the same person." ”

A grim smile crossed the corner of Xiang Wei's mouth: "Don't worry about it, as long as He Feng recognizes that person is me, the person who is looking for Fang Pavilion is not enough evidence." "This rumor spreads, but Xun Fangge will benefit, as far as these people's testimony is concerned, who will believe it. And as long as He Feng changed his tone, the people of Xunfang Pavilion didn't have the courage to continue to pour dirty water on Yueyao.

Mingzhu thought for a moment, nodded and said, "The idea is good, but this person is really difficult to find." Look, do you want to ask my husband for help? ”

Xiang Wei shook her head and said, "No, I can handle this matter properly." "The more people who know, the more trouble there is.

Yue Yao glanced at Xiang Wei, then turned her head to look at Mingzhu and said, "You tell your brother-in-law about this." My brother-in-law has a lot of troubles, and he must think more than we do, and if there is anything wrong, he can also see it. ”

Mingzhu smiled and nodded: "Okay." ”

Yue Yao felt a little guilty and said, "I came to Suzhou, but I added a lot of trouble to you, I'm really sorry." "The things she provoked outside would more or less implicate Niu Yanghui and Mingzhu, but Mingzhu didn't care at all.

Mingzhu scolded with a smile: "Seeing me like this, really, do you think I scolded you enough?" "Now that it's like that outside, the impact must be a little bit, but Mingzhu didn't take it to heart, she was just worried about Yueyao.

In the evening, Mingzhu told Niu Yanghui about it. After finishing speaking, Mingzhu thought about the vicious rumors outside, and looked very bad: "Husband, my heart is panicked." "Those people degraded Yueyao like a rat in a stinky ditch, and they hated everyone to beat her, which was really hateful. Not to mention that Yueyao didn't go to the Qinglou, even if she went to the Qinglou, what if she did, as for this arrangement?

Niu Yanghui shook his head and said, "This is a stage that the second sister must go through. ”

Mingzhu's eyes widened sharply: "What do you mean?" ”

Niu Yanghui sighed lightly. If Yueyao were a man, not only would she not be slandered, but she would also become a beautiful talk. In the eyes of the world, a woman should be at home with her husband and children, and should not come out to show her face. And Yueyao has to go out often in order to paint, which is already a bad example in the eyes of many people, especially those who read.

Mingzhu said for a long time: "Is this someone deliberately slandering Yueyao and deliberately spreading rumors to ruin Yueyao's reputation?" She thought it was a coincidence. Listening to Niu Yanghui's words, Mingzhu instantly reacted to the rumors outside that they were too crazy.

Niu Yanghui nodded and said, "Otherwise, why did Gu Li leak Yueyao's whereabouts after drinking that day?" What is Gu Li, who cares about him? And he is not familiar with the place in Suzhou, how can anyone invite him to drink? That's to trap his words. However, the second sister did not appear on the Qinhuai River that day, so the matter was over. Thinking of this, Niu Yanghui told Yue Yao one more thing: "You may not know that at the beginning of the year, Liu Lao said in front of a group of people that Yue Yao's future achievements will definitely surpass him and Mr. Yushan and reach the peak that no one has climbed." ”

When Niu Yanghui heard this, he knew that he would definitely cause trouble. Yue Yao has achieved such great success, she is a woman, and she is still so young, how can she make those who have struggled for several years boast of their talents but are still not famous. So not long ago, when it was rumored that Yueyao visited the Qinglou and intersected with the woman in the Qinglou, and the more it spread, the more outrageous it became, he was not surprised at all. Because he knew that even if there was no Qinglou matter, there were other things waiting for Yueyao.

Mingzhu was a little strange: "What's this?" Mr. Yushan had already said that Yue Yao's future achievements would surpass him. ”

Niu Yanghui smiled bitterly: "Can this be the same?" When Mr. Yushan said this, he would definitely not say it in front of outsiders. But Liu Lao said this in front of many great painters. This is tantamount to erecting countless enemies for Yueyao. Niu Yanghui really thinks that Liu Lao is deliberately hating Yueyao!

Hearing this, Mingzhu understood it: "Is this sentence provoked the feelings?" ”

Niu Yanghui shook his head and said, "Not all." These people were looking for opportunities in the first place. This time the matter of Xunfang Pavilion came out, which made these people think that they were holding Yue Yao's handle, so they made it up with all their might, just to ruin Yue Yao's reputation. "A person without a reputation, no matter how good his painting skills are, it is in vain.

Mingzhu sneered: "Speaking of which, in the final analysis, these people are jealous of Yueyao and can't tolerate her, so they spread rumors outside." "I don't have the ability, but I am jealous of Yueyao, and I still use such a subordinate method, it is really ridiculous.

Niu Yanghui's answer was very simple: "The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." "Yue Yao's art exhibition has been a huge success, fame and fortune have been reaped, it has made people very red, and Liu Lao's high praise has to make many people jealous.

Mingzhu asked in a low voice: "Husband, why are you silent when you know so many things?" I'm so depressed, you don't say it. Wouldn't you have believed the rumors out there? ”

Niu Yanghui shook his head with a smile and said: "The second sister has always acted in a measured manner, how could she do such a thing to give people a handle." She didn't say anything about it, and I can't interfere with it. Speaking of which, I still admire her, it's all rumored like that outside, she can still be so indifferent, just this concentration, I can't reach it. Niu Yanghui felt that this matter was just the beginning, and Yueyao would face more malicious slander in the future. If you can't bear it now, you won't need to talk about it in the future.

Mingzhu remembered that she was in a hurry, but Yueyao seemed to be fine, and Mingzhu muttered dissatisfiedly: "I don't know, do you think it's me outside?" Really. After finishing speaking, Mingzhu suddenly asked, "Husband, do you think Yueyao knows that someone is making trouble?" ”

Niu Yanghui shook his head and said, "You don't know, how do I know?" Although Yue Yao lived in his house, he had met Yue Yao countless times, how could he know Yue Yao's thoughts.

The more Mingzhu thought about it, the more she felt that Yue Yao was afraid that she knew it: "Husband, what do you think of Yue Yao's idea?" Is there anything missing? ”

Niu Yanghui really gave a suggestion: "When the time comes, let that stand-in take that painting to Xunfang Pavilion and destroy the painting in front of everyone." ”

Mingzhu didn't understand why she ruined the painting.

Niu Yanghui explained. To put it simply, ruining that painting is better than keeping it. Thinking about it, when everyone first praised the painting for its goodness, and then destroyed it in front of them, people who really love painting must be very uncomfortable in their hearts, and naturally complain about those who spread rumors. Of course, doing so also shows Yueyao's attitude.

Mingzhu was a little reluctant, and said softly: "Husband, that painting is really good, I like it very much!" It's a shame to be ruined. ”

Niu Yanghui has never seen that painting, and after listening to Mingzhu's words, he will not look at that painting: "If the painting is good, the effect will be better." "Compared to Yueyao's reputation, a painting is nothing. Yue Yao is still young now, and she will definitely be able to draw better in the future.

Mingzhu heard this, and did not hesitate any longer: "Well, I will tell Yueyao tomorrow." ”

Niu Yanghui looked at Mingzhu with a sad expression, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, when you return to the capital, everything will be fine." ”

Mingzhu said: "Ahem, I knew that I would cause so many things, and I should have persuaded Yueyao that day and asked her not to open that broken painting exhibition." "Although those paintings were sold for a lot of money, their family did not lack this money, and they caused such a big trouble for nothing.

Niu Yanghui deliberately smiled and said: "Didn't the second sister say that when she returns to Beijing, she will hold an art exhibition in the capital?" Otherwise, you can persuade her to dispel this idea. ”

Mingzhu didn't respond to this: "What about me?" Here, these bastards are also relying on the head snakes, and we can't help them, so we are so unscrupulous to pour dirty water on Yueyao. If you go to the capital, see if they have the courage. ”

Niu Yanghui agrees with Mingzhu's words, Yueyao has made such a big name in the capital over the years and has not been interfered by outsiders, and has always been smooth and profitable, in fact, it is mainly due to Duanwang. King Duan had shown earlier that he admired Yue Yao's talent, and he deliberately released his words. If someone is unfavorable to Yueyao, wouldn't it offend King Duan. And, of course, Jingning Houfu. When Yueyao returned to the capital, there was the umbrella of King Duan, and no one dared to slander Yueyao without a long eye.

Mingzhu said worriedly: "You say, if my cousin believes this rumor, what should I do?" ”

Niu Yanghui felt that Mingzhu was blind and worried: "Don't worry!" It's going to be fine. He knew that Yue Yao would not do such an outrageous thing, and An Zhichen would not believe the rumors outside.

Early the next morning, Mingzhu came to look for Yueyao and told Niu Yanghui's suggestion, as for the people outside deliberately slandering Yueyao, Mingzhu didn't say anything. Some things are better not to say, and talking too much is just adding to the blockage, and there is no benefit.

Yue Yao felt that Niu Yanghui's suggestion was very good: "It's okay to ruin it." "It's a good picture, but compared to her reputation,

Mingzhu felt that it was a pity, and pulled Yueyao into the studio again, looked at the painting, and sighed slightly: "It's a pity to spend so much of your hard work." ”

Xiang Wei sneered: "This painting must not be kept." Even if there was no Niu Yanghui's suggestion, she didn't plan to let Yueyao leave this painting, thinking of Xiangru's pitiful appearance and what she said, she still wanted to use this painting to become famous, dream!

Mingzhu disagrees with Xiang Wei's words: "People are bad, but things are innocent." ”

Yueyao felt that the two of them had gone off topic: "Shouldn't it be better to talk about business now!" "It's been decided to ruin the painting, and it's useless to say more.

Mingzhu already had a plan for this: "In five days, my husband will step down from the prefect's errand, and in three days he will take over the post of envoy." The husband's intention is set on the middle three days. Yueyao, what do you think? "I've been promoted, and the banquet guests are justified. However, this banquet will not only invite female guests, but also male guests.

Yueyao had no opinion: "Within a few days, can you find a good stand-in?" "Everything else is easy to do, this stand-in is the hardest to find.

Mingzhu said with a smile: "Husband said that it is better for Xiang Wei not to come forward, this matter will be handled by him." Mingzhu also thinks that it is better to leave the outside affairs to men.

Xiang Wei didn't dare to have any more objections.

Yue Yao felt a little guilty, this time it was really troublesome for Niu Yanghui.

Mingzhu said happily: "You have to really feel guilty! I gave him the "Lotus Garden", and he liked it very much! ”

Yue Yao nodded and said, "When I finish using it, I'll give it to him." ”

Mingzhu just said it casually, but she didn't expect Yueyao to agree, this is a rare benefit. Mingzhu said happily: "Cheng, Cheng, my husband will definitely be very happy if he knows." Niu Yanghui has been talking here in Mingzhu several times!

According to the appearance drawn by Yue Yao, Niu Yanghui found a stand-in within five days, and the speed was very fast.

Yue Yao was taken aback when she heard this.

Mingzhu asked Xiang Wei to look at this person in the past, and then asked Xiang Wei to tell this person what happened at that time, so that this person would not show his feet at that time.

In the afternoon, Xiang Wei came back, looked for Mingzhu and asked, "Where did Niu Yanghui find such a person?" "It's almost to the point of being fake.

Mingzhu shook Xiang Wei's face at the moment: "Is Niu Yanghui your name?" It's called Lord. "Mingzhu is no longer used to Xiang Wei's problem.

The corners of Xiang Wei's mouth twitched and twitched, but if he wanted to call him master, there were many doors.

Mingzhu couldn't help but reprimand Xiang Wei fiercely, and then Yueyao didn't escape, both of them were trained by Mingzhu so that they didn't dare to refute.

After Yueyao waited for Mingzhu to dissipate, she asked, "Is Xunfang Pavilion going to arrange for someone to go in?" "Just letting this stand-in add the previous guards, Yueyao feels inappropriate.

Mingzhu is a hands-off shopkeeper: "Don't care, he will get it right." "Outside the male lead, inside the female lead, the outside of the pearl has always been a thing, all pushed to Niu Yanghui.

Xiang Wei muttered, "You can't leave everything to him!" Xiang Wei is used to handling everything by herself, and this feeling of staying out of the matter is very bad.

Mingzhu glared at Xiang Wei fiercely, and she felt that Xiang Wei was the culprit in this incident. Let this Xiangru come to her mansion to dance that day, but it was also Xiang Wei's opinion, so Yueyao brought harm to Xiang Wei: "If you don't give it to him, will it be handed over to you?" Do you want to go to the Green House again? ”

Xiang Wei didn't dare to speak anymore, the handle was grabbed in her hand, which also felt bad! cough, Xiang Wei couldn't help sighing, she was really careless, and now she can't speak justly.

Yueyao believed in Niu Yanghui very much: "Since my brother-in-law said that he would arrange this matter, then he will definitely handle it properly." We just had to entertain our guests at home. ”

Mingzhu smiled and nodded: "That's how it should be." Now that my cousin is not in the capital, many things will inevitably require you to come forward, and when my cousin comes back, he will let him deal with the outside affairs. ”

Yue Yao smiled and nodded.

This day is the day of the feast of the Ox Mansion.

Yueyao had breakfast and took Xiang Wei, Gu You, and Gu Lan to the main room to find the pearl. This time the situation is special, so I am very careful about dressing.

Mingzhu came out of the room and looked at Yueyao without blinking for a long time.

Yue Yao smiled lightly: "What's wrong?" Is there anything wrong with the clothes? "This garment, but she carefully selected it.

Mingzhu deliberately pretended to be unhappy and said, "Ahem, forget it this time." Next time, don't wear it like this again, I'm afraid to see too much, and I won't have self-confidence anymore. ”

Yue Yao was wearing a long aqua blue plain dress, her long inky hair was gently pulled up with a lotus-colored ribbon, and a jade phoenix tail orchid hairpin was inserted obliquely on her head. Unless you don't wear any jewelry, you don't wear any jewelry. This slightly simple dress brings out Yueyao's elegant temperament more and more.

Yue Yao pursed her lips and smiled.

At this time, Niu Yanghui walked out of the house, just looking at the smiling Yueyao, Niu Yanghui was stunned at this moment. However, Niu Yanghui's concentration is better than Mingzhu, and he regained a decent smile in the blink of an eye: "Mingzhu, second sister, I'm going to the front yard." ”

Seeing Niu Yanghui like this, Mingzhu was not jealous, and nodded with a smile: "Then you can get busy!" She was stunned when she saw Yueyao just now, where could she blame Niu Yanghui! To paraphrase Yueyao's words, everyone likes good things. Well, it doesn't seem right to think like this, how can you compare Yueyao to a thing!

How did Yue Yao know that Mingzhu had a lawsuit on her own: "The guests are coming soon, let's go out!" ”

Mingzhu looked at Yueyao from beginning to end, and couldn't help muttering: "No, I have to change my clothes, otherwise standing with you, I will be a nouveau riche." No matter how she dresses up, Mingzhu feels that she will become Yueyao's foil if she stands by Yueyao's side.

Yue Yao was not satisfied when she saw that Mingzhu had changed three or four clothes: "Or, I'll go change my clothes?" ”

Mingzhu waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll be your foil this time!" I can't do that next time, it's a serious blow to my self-confidence. Compared with other people of the same age, Mingzhu thinks she is still very well maintained. can be compared with Yueyao, and immediately became scum.

Mingzhu changed her clothes at will, went out with Yueyao, and muttered as she walked: "I sacrificed a lot this time, and when I return to the capital, you have to compensate me well." ”

Yue Yao responded with a smile.

The person who took the post of Niufu, unless there is really something that can't leave, otherwise it will definitely come, and with the arrival of everyone, the scene is getting more and more lively.

The ladies who came to congratulate were also shocked when they saw Yueyao. Thinking about the rumors outside, and then looking at the real person standing in front of them, doubts appeared in everyone's hearts.

The last time Yueyao came to accompany the guests, it felt like she was on top of her, so that everyone stayed away, so now that Yueyao is like this, no one wants to be with her. Whoever is by her side is tantamount to being a foil for her. It doesn't matter if you're foiled, the worst thing is to be lined as a vulgar powder.

Mingzhu is also helpless about this.

But Mrs. Yun, who agreed with Yueyao to invite someone to dance last time, took the initiative to talk to Yueyao: "Even Madam, you don't have to pay attention to those rumors outside. Those people just want to use you to make a name for themselves, so that they can make money. "Mrs. Yun has seen Yue Yao, and with Yue Yao's proud appearance, she will have a very happy conversation with a Qinglou Oiran, and she feels funny when she listens to it.

Yue Yao smiled lightly: "Thank you Mrs. Yun for your concern, in fact, I don't care." There is an old saying that it is mediocrity that is not envied. Those people think that they can defeat me by slandering me with these inferior means, and they look down on me too much. ”

Mingzhu's brows twitched, it turned out that Yueyao had known for a long time.

Mrs. Yun was surprised: "Madam, what do you mean, is this deliberately someone throwing dirty water on you?" I thought it was just the people in the Xunfang Pavilion who wanted to borrow the name of the lady to get on the throne! ”

The corners of Yue Yao's mouth showed a touch of contempt: "Xunfang Pavilion, you don't have the courage to slander me." However, they should not be spared for aiding and abusive. ”

Yue Yaoyun's light and breezy appearance made Mrs. Yun's heart stagnate. She thought that Yueyao would be a very pure person. Mrs. Yun thought and laughed, where can the noble lady from the capital really be pure.

Mrs. Chen said with a smile: "I have always heard that people outside say that your painting is good, but I have never seen it with my own eyes, and I don't know if I can have such a blessing today." ”

Yueyao's outstanding painting skills are well-known in Jiangnan, but the wives present have only heard of her name and have never seen these paintings. Because all the art exhibitions are for men, women have never been there.

Mingzhu said happily: "Yueyao, it's rare that everyone has this interest, let people bring those paintings of yours and open everyone's eyes." "These are all arranged by Mingzhu, and they didn't tell Yueyao.

Yue Yao smiled and instructed Gu Youdao, "Take the third box." "The third box is full of Buddha statues painted by Yue Yao and copied scriptures. The ladies present may not be interested in calligraphy and painting, but they must be interested in Buddha statues and scriptures.

Sure enough, as soon as these things were taken out, everyone expressed great interest. Of course, even if there is no interest, it will not ruin the owner's prosperity.

One of the ladies valued the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and said to Yueyao tactfully: "Mrs. Lian, I like this statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva very much, I wonder if Mrs. can cut love?" The latter sentence that the price was not a problem was not said, but everyone understood it......

Yue Yao shook her head and said, "These Buddha statues and scriptures, I plan to donate them to Zhaohua Temple after returning to Beijing." Yueyao's words are tantamount to saying that these things are not for sale, nor are they given away.

Mingzhu said with a smile: "You may not know, my sister has liked scriptures since she was a child, and she often lives in Zhaohua Temple for this reason. But it was also her luck that actually entered the eyes of Master Xuantian, and often explained Buddhist scriptures to her. Don't underestimate her, she has a very high attainment in Buddhism. ”

Everyone looked surprised: "Madam has been taught by Master Xuantian?" "Jiangnan is far away from the capital, but everyone still knows the name of Master Xuantian.

Yue Yao bowed: "I wanted to serve the Buddha that day, but the master said that my six roots are not exhausted, and the dust is not gone." Otherwise, I would have escaped into the void and become a disciple of the master. ”

The crowd was a little shocked when they heard this. But looking at Yue Yao who was standing quietly at the table at this time, it was undeniable that Yue Yao did feel cold and alienated to them, as if they had seen all the red dust. And when you look at her, you can feel a sense of peace and tranquility flowing from your heart. This kind of feeling can only be found in those who have attained enlightenment.

Mingzhu wanted to roll her eyes, really, as long as she followed Yue Yao's words, she went in a weird direction as she spoke, and she didn't know how Yue Yao got mixed up in the circle of noblewomen in the capital.

At this time, the largest auction house in Suzhou is a different situation.

The "Dance" painted by Yue Yao was placed in a time-honored store selling calligraphy and paintings a few days ago. In this painting, Yue Yao also mentioned a poem by the Song Dynasty poet Liu Zicui. Yueyao also decided to destroy the painting, so she would mention someone else's poem, otherwise she would rather be empty than inscribe a poem.

As soon as the news spread that Yueyao's painting was placed in the shop for people to see, people who liked calligraphy and painting flocked to it. In just seven days, hundreds of people went to see the painting. Many of them offered to buy the deck, but the store said that the painting would be auctioned off at an auction house in a few days. If you want to buy a painting, you can go to the auction house when the time comes. So on this day, the auction house was not lively.

A man with a scroll in his hand walked up to the stage, followed by a man who looked like a guard. Each of them holds one head and unfolds the painting.

After watching Xiangru's dance, I was more and more deeply touched by this painting of "Dance". The audience was full of praise.

The auctioneer came up and was getting ready to start. Xiang Wei's stand-in, the man who called himself Mao Da looked at He Feng, who was sitting in the front row, and shouted: "He Ye, last time I sent the painting to Xunfang Pavilion, He Ye was also present at that time. I don't know if He Ye still remembers me. This man spoke, and his tone was rather dragged.

He Feng was startled, and quickly nodded and said, "Yes, I was there at the time." ”

The stand-in called himself Mao Da, and Mao Da asked: "Then can I ask He Ye, where am I like a woman?" Would you think it was a woman dressed as a man? ”

Where did He Feng have the strength to see that Xiang Wei was pretending to be a man, and that was completely what Xiangru coaxed him to tell him happily. He Feng thought that Xiangru would not joke with him about this, so he believed it. Of course, He Feng was not stunned, knowing that he would offend people by saying this. However, if you drink and spit out the truth, it is out of your control. Now, He Feng looked at the people standing on the stage, and looked at it seriously for a while, this voice, this appearance, and this voice, this posture, how do you look like a man!

He Feng's palms were a little sweaty, and he said, "You come down and let me take a closer look." "He lost his words after drinking that day, and was severely taught a lesson by his father, and finally yesterday his father let him out a few days before he let go, and he didn't want to be locked up again.

Mao Da said: "Since He Ye still has doubts, then Cheng, I will let everyone see if I am a man?" "In front of everyone, he will come out of his chest.

Everyone was startled when they looked at the deep scar on Mao's shoulder. Then everyone looked at He Feng in unison, what kind of eyes should this look be needed to think that this person is a woman disguised as a man? Even whimsically thought that this was dressed up by Mrs. Lian?

The dog leg who accompanied He Feng hurriedly shouted: "It's true that you are a man, but who can be sure that you are the one who came to Xunfang Pavilion that day?" Who knows if you're going to be an imposter? ”

Mao Da sneered: "When I went to Xunfang Pavilion that day, I not only saw He Ye, but I also saw a lot of people along the way. If not, I can find witnesses. ”

He Feng slapped the dog's leg on the head: "Bastard, you think that my old eyes are dizzy, and even a person can admit his mistake!" On that day, it was the Xunfang Pavilion where the above two people arrived. ”

A man in the second row, dressed plainly and aged about forty, snorted coldly when he heard this: "You are not old and dizzy, how can you see this person as a woman disguised as a man?" As long as anyone who is not blind knows that there is a man standing on it. "The person standing on it, although he is shorter, will definitely not be seen as a man.

He Feng was originally angry, but when he turned his head to look at the person who spoke, his arrogance disappeared all of a sudden. He Feng gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, his grandmother's was actually played by a Qinglou woman.

The congregation was anxious to see the paintings. The auctioneer was busy saying that the auction could begin. If you don't start filming again, it is estimated that the people below will rebel.

Mao Da no longer dwells on the previous things, some things are enough, and talking too much will arouse suspicion: "My master said that it is a trouble to leave this painting, and she doesn't want to leave a trouble." ”

The auctioneer didn't understand what this meant, and at this time, Mao Da took out a fire fold from his sleeve, blew the fire fold with a small cluster of flames, and put it under the painting.

The auctioneer was taken aback.

The people below were all stunned by Mao Da's behavior. Among them, the people sitting in the first row reacted very quickly, and immediately rushed to the stage to extinguish the fire, but were stopped by the guards.

In the blink of an eye, most of the painting was burned. Mao Da then threw the painting on the ground, and soon, only a pile of ashes remained on the ground.

The dogleg beside He Feng looked at the small ball of ashes on the ground, and muttered: "Crazy, really crazy...... This painting was asked for three thousand taels in the calligraphy shop that day, and the auction price today will only be more expensive. But a few thousand taels of silver were burned. It is said that He Feng is a loser, is there anyone more loser than this? Definitely not.

After Xiangru in the private room knew that the painting was destroyed, her face turned pale for a moment.

The painter who wanted to rush to the stage just now looked at the pile of ashes and shouted: "Violent Heavenly Things, Violent Heavenly Things!" "Is there anything more depressing than burning such a good painting?

Most of the people below sighed in pity.

The auctioneer didn't know how to end, when a person walked in outside and muttered something in the auctioneer's ear, and the auctioneer immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, in order to buy Yueyao's painting, a lot of people came, and there were many famous people among these people. Burning the "Painting" will make everyone sigh a pity, but if everyone is allowed to run in vain, it will be a matter of right and wrong. Niu Yanghui mobilized Yueyao to take out two paintings that were not for sale to be auctioned.

In order to calm down this turmoil, Yueyao had no choice but to endure the pain of love.
