Zhuang Ruolan looked at her boudoir and said with a smile: "It's been three years in the blink of an eye." "I used to think about what the future would look like, but now she is a mother of two.

Caiyi added an oil lamp to the side and said, "The girl and the master have untied the knot, which is a great joy." ”

Zhuang Ruolan looked at Caiyi and smiled, Caiyi and Caiyun have been with her for twelve years, and the two are twenty years old after the New Year, and it is time to do their marriage.

Caiyun has a steady temperament, so Zhuang Ruolan told her to the eldest son of the shopkeeper of the cloth workshop. Zhuang Ruolan thought that she was not suitable for the status of the eldest daughter-in-law, and when the big housekeeper Ma Yuan asked for his youngest son, she also took advantage of the situation to agree.

Caiyi's face turned red.

Zhuang Ruolan said with a smile: "During this time, you can embroider the dowry with peace of mind." "The dates of the two rings are set for February and March. The two girls have been by her side for so many years, and the relationship is naturally not comparable to ordinary people.

A maid outside came over and said, "Girl, my aunt is here, and now I'm talking to my master." "This girl is also beaming when she gets Zhuang Ruolan's reward.

Zhuang Ruolan saw Ma Peng and complained: "You are also here, what should I do with the child?" Zhuang Ruolan left Caiyun to take care of the child, if there is something, Xiaoyahuan will definitely come over. It's just that she has only been away for a few hours, and Zhuang Ruolan is very worried.

Ma Peng smiled: "I just came from the mansion, and the children are quite good." You don't have to worry, you don't have to worry about it once you get home. ”

Husband and wife have a good night's sleep.

The next day, Yueyao didn't go out to attend the banquet in Mafu. Yueyao directly said this time that she wanted to take care of the two children and stay in the main courtyard to accompany Keyue. As for Yanqi, she eats, sleeps, sleeps, eats, and has a nurse to take care of her.

Yueyao played with Ke Yue, and the fine silk came over and said, "Girl, most of the people invited by the old lady did not come this time. ”

Yue Yao was surprised and asked, "What's going on?" ”

It turned out that Cheng's posts were seven or eight times out of ten that they had something to do at home. As for the reason, it is not known.

The Cheng family held this banquet with great interest, but it turned out to make her almost vomit a mouthful of old blood, and only a small half of the people who were in charge of the Ma family came, and this small half of the people saw that the banquet guests were Cheng and Tang, and they all excused themselves to leave, and the rest of the people were not as good as the Ma family. Where can these people be looked down upon by the Cheng family.

Cheng was angry but forgot that when she hosted the feed before, basically no one came to the door for the next post. This time, many of the ladies who were willing to come to the door were for Zhuang Ruolan's sake, and when they arrived at the Ma family, they knew that there was a problem when they didn't see Zhuang Ruolan go out.

Tang's hard work didn't get a word of praise, and he was used by Cheng to get angry. Tang is not an angry little daughter-in-law, when she first got married, she was low and small because she was not familiar with the environment, and now that her sons have been born, she has enough confidence. Of course, she will not go against Cheng in the face, so she can give people a handle.

On the same day, Ma Yue and Cheng quarreled again, and Cheng was so angry that he fainted. This time it's really dizzy, not pretending to be dizzy.

Su Zhu was a little worried, "Girl, what if this is rumored that the second master is not filial?" "It's naturally good for the second master to stand up for his own girl, but it's not appropriate if people criticize it.

Tang smiled: "Don't worry, it's okay." If it was Uncle Ma Peng, the mother-in-law would definitely do this, but the husband is the biological son of the mother-in-law, how can the husband bear the reputation of unfilial piety.

Tang rubbed her temples, she was really hot this time, and she worked hard to arrange this banquet, and she suffered a lot of white eyes during the banquet, but she didn't expect to be complained by her mother-in-law. If she endured it any longer, she thought she was really a bun.

Su Zhu is still a little worried.

Tang said with a smile: "What are you worried about, everything has a second master!" "My son can quarrel with his mother-in-law behind closed doors, but she can't.

The Tang family dared to do this, also because the two heads of the Ma family did not want to see the Cheng family, and she would not have any trouble doing so. If it were someone else, she would naturally not use this method.

Zhuang Ruolan returned to Mafu after lunch at the banker's house, and heard Ke Yue's giggles outside the courtyard, and when she entered the house, she saw Yue Yao teasing Ke Yue.

Yue Yao was hugging Ke Yue, and she couldn't salute, so she said directly: "Sister-in-law is back, Ke Yue has been looking for you?" ”

Zhuang Ruolan looked at her daughter and smiled: "Ke Yue, do you miss your mother?" ”

Ke Yue stretched out her hand and said in a milky voice: "Mother's hug." ”

After Yueyao waited for Keyue to be hugged by the nurse, she told Zhuang Ruolan one thing: "Sister-in-law, I want to go to Zhaohua Temple in two days." ”

Zhuang Ruolan's face changed greatly when she heard Yueyao say that she was going to Zhaohua Temple, and she asked anxiously, "Okay, why do you want to go to Zhaohua Temple?" Who in the mansion has wronged you? "Last time, I could say that I was praying for my grandmother's blessing, but this time I suddenly want to go to Zhaohua Temple. Zhuang Ruolan suspected that Cheng said Yueyao's words, so that Yueyao didn't want to live in the mansion.

Yue Yao looked at Zhuang Ruolan's eager expression and hurriedly explained, "Mr. Yushan sent me a letter, saying that he wanted me to go to Zhaohua Temple. Mr. Yushan will be in Zhaohua Temple for the past two months, and I can get more guidance from him when I go there, and I also have a lot of questions to ask him, so I will tell my uncle in the evening. ”

Yueyao didn't want her fame to spread. Mr. Yushan also didn't want outsiders to know that Yue Yao was a good painter, and it was just a rumor that Yue Yao had a talent for painting before, and people in their circle laughed when they heard such rumors. But when he got to know Yue Yao, he found out that Yue Yao did have this talent, and the talent was amazing. Because of this, Mr. Yushan taught Yueyao exceptionally, hoping that Yueyao could go further. To Mr. Yushan's relief, Yueyao's progress was faster, even better than he expected.

Mr. Yushan thinks that the time for Yueyao has arrived, and he can leave the school. Mr. Yushan believes that Yueyao's paintings will definitely become famous once they are circulated, but Mr. Yushan is worried that Yueyao is too young, and becoming famous too early will be bad for him, after all, it is easy to be influenced by the outside world when he is young. This is not the first time that such a thing has happened, Mr. Tamayama has seen a prodigy die under fame. Therefore, Mr. Yushan wanted Yueyao to live in the mountains, firstly, to teach nearby, and secondly, to better sharpen Yueyao.

Zhuang Ruolan thought that it was the matter in Mafu that caused Cheng's disgust, and then retaliated against Yueyao to let her go to the mountain to suffer and suffer, but she didn't expect it to be Mr. Yushan's suggestion. Zhuang Ruolan remembered that Yueyao did not worship Mr. Yushan as a teacher, and asked, "Did Mr. Yushan say when he would accept you as a student?" "If Mr. Yushan can take Yue Yao as an apprentice, Yue Yao will be used for life.

Yue shook her head and said, "Mr. Yushan said that he would not accept me as a student. In fact, Mr. Yushan said that she didn't need to apprentice at her current level at all, but Yueyao regarded Mr. Yushan as her teacher in her heart.

Zhuang Ruolan felt that this Mr. Yushan was very strange. However, this matter is not something she can peck at, it is a good thing for Yueyao to be able to get Mr. Yushan's teaching, she naturally will not stop her, "Then when are you going to leave?" I'm going to get ready. Zhuang Ruolan was very sure that Ma Chengteng would not stop him after knowing the news, Ma Chengteng wanted Yueyao to be able to stand out in the painting world more than her.

Yue Yao shook her head and said, "No need, except for some clothes, you don't need to bring anything else." Mr. Yushan has already made all the arrangements. "Mr. Yushan has set a yard for Yueyao, which is next to the courtyard where he lives, which is very convenient.

Zhuang Ruolan is so weird how strange she hears, if this is not for Mr. Yushan's character, she would have to run to her father-in-law to refuse this invitation, and sure enough, geniuses are freaks.

Yueyao told Ma Chengteng about this that night, and Ma Chengteng naturally would not refuse, and said that he would go to the mountain to see Yueyao when he was free.

Yueyao didn't stay too long, and asked people to pack their clothes when they went back. This time, I didn't bring anything other than clothes and books, so I didn't have much luggage.

Early the next morning, Yueyao took Xiang Wei to the mountain with Drizzle and Hao's mother. Deng Ma stayed in Mafu for half a month, and Yueyao sent Deng Ma to Zhuangzi in the countryside. Deng's mother is old, Yueyao doesn't want her to work, so let her go to Zhuangzi to enjoy Qingfu.

The Tang family was dealing with things, and Su Zhu came over and said, "Second lady, Miss Yao went out in a carriage. Seeing that Tang didn't react, he said again: "Second lady, Miss Yao went out with four big boxes, and it looks like she was going to go far away." ”

Tang Shi was stunned, "Go far away? Do you know where Miss Yao is going? "There's no news about how she went far away, and she didn't tell her about the family.

Su Zhu shook his head and said, "I inquired, it seems to be Zhaohua Temple." Su Zhu said indignantly because the Tang family was not worthy: "Madam, Miss Yao doesn't take you seriously." Madame was very considerate of her, and there was nothing wrong with her, and she was still like this. I thought she was a good one at first, but I didn't expect it to be worse than a big girl. This kind of behavior is clearly a slap in the face.

Tang Shi was not angry, but was a little strange and puzzled, "The temple is bitter, what are you going to Zhaohua Temple for?" And if you want to go to Zhaohua Temple, you should also tell me that I can prepare things. It's strange that there are no orders now.

Su Zhu turned his head and thought about it, it was indeed strange, "Madam, I'll inquire again." ”

Tang smiled and let Suzhu out. Tang knew in his heart that Su Zhu couldn't find out the news. This time, Yueyao must have something to do when she went to Zhaohua Temple, otherwise she wouldn't have said anything to her, the housekeeper.

Mo Shi bought off several servant women in Ma Mansion, so she knew that Yue Yao had gone to Zhaohua Temple that afternoon. It's just that these servants are not on errands in the inner courtyard, and they don't know what they know.

Mo Shi listened with a look of surprise, "What is this girl doing in Zhaohua Temple?" "It's definitely not easy to go to Zhaohua Temple again.

The person who delivered the news shook his head and said: "I don't know, I just know that I went to Zhaohua Temple, and I only brought a few boxes, it doesn't seem to be a long-term stay." ”

Mo Shi couldn't figure it out, and the flower woman beside him said: "Madam, let people go to Zhaohua Temple to inquire." ”

Mohs nodded.
