Governor Zeng apologized to the Dong family and received people, and the news soon spread. When the people of the Gu family got the news, they exploded.

Mrs. Gu said anxiously to Mrs. Gu: "The Lian family has really offended the governor, she will return to the capital in a few days, and the governor will be angry with us at that time." "The Gu family can't bear the anger of the governor.

Mrs. Gu immediately instructed Dong Yu to find out.

When Dong Yu took her two daughters-in-law to Dong's house, Yueyao was talking to Mingzhu! Mingzhu heard Dong Yu coming over, and said with a smile: "It is estimated that I came here for Governor Zeng's business." "Niu Yanghui is now serving in Jiangnan, and this former governor is also Niu Yanghui's top boss, no matter what, he always has to avoid doing things under people. If it was in the capital, Mingzhu would definitely not stop if he didn't make Governor Zeng disgraced.

Mingzhu was right, but Dong Yu didn't come for Yueyao to force Governor Zeng to apologize, on the contrary, Dong Yu thanked Yueyao: "Yueyao, fortunately you are here, otherwise Dad may not be angry." ”

When Yue Yao heard this, the smile on her face became much more sincere: "We provoked this incident in the first place, and it is said that we implicated the teacher." ”

When Mr. Yushan heard his daughter and his granddaughter-in-law coming, he came with a cane, and when he heard the word implication at the door, he asked, "What is involved?" Until now, Mr. Yushan, the owner, has not known what is happening.

Mr. Yushan doesn't understand general affairs, the affairs of the Dong Mansion were originally taken care of by the housekeeper mother sent by Dong Yu, after Yueyao moved in, the housekeeper fell into the hands of Yueyao, it can be said that the actual head of the Dong Mansion is Yueyao, so it is not difficult for Yueyao to hide from Mr. Yushan.

Yueyao didn't tell Mr. Yushan because she didn't want him to be angry about this matter, but now that Mr. Yushan asked about her, she didn't hide it, and told the cause and effect of the matter.

Mr. Yushan looked ugly and said, "How dare you smash my door?" Why didn't you tell me about this earlier?" Since he became famous, no one has dared to be presumptuous in front of him.

Yue Yao soothed: "Teacher, the doctor said that he wants to let you recuperate with peace of mind, don't work hard, don't get angry, teacher, don't worry, I can handle this matter."

Gu Li's wife Miao's eyes flashed when she heard this, this Lian's tone was so big, I don't know if she has confidence or because she is bold.

Mr. Yushan also knew Yueyao's temperament, he was a person who never said big things, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, then this matter will be left to you, if you can't handle it, you must tell me." "He is angry with the Gu family, that's because no one can say anything about this kind of housework, but if he is angry with outsiders, then he won't do it.

Dong Yu was very uncomfortable when she saw that Mr. Yushan trusted Yueyao so much, not that she was jealous of Yueyao, but that she felt that she was very unfilial, and she thought that she could let her father live a stable old age and enjoy the fun of teasing her grandson, but she didn't expect so many things to happen later.

When Dong Yu went back, she looked tired, squinted and leaned on the carriage, and the two daughters-in-law thought she was asleep Miao Shizhuang said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, have you noticed that my aunt seems to have become the master, but we have become guests." "Lian is not anti-customer-oriented.

Gu Zhe's wife, Yao, raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you want to say?"

Miao is naturally worried that Yue Yao will take his grandfather's valuable things for herself, Mrs. Gu and the people of the Gu family are stupid, it doesn't mean that she is also stupid, her grandfather is a famous painter in the world, a painting can be sold for thousands of taels of silver, even if there is no silver in his hand, but as long as he opens his mouth, he will worry about no money to spend, and as far as she knows, in addition to many precious calligraphy and paintings, her grandfather has many antique treasures, and those things are also worth a lot of money.

Thinking of this, the Miao family was discouraged for a while, if the husband had succeeded to his grandfather's name, these things would have been theirs, and now they had to worry not only about the person who was about to succeed, but also about the Lian family's share of the pie.

Yao Xuerong glanced at Miao in surprise, lowered her voice and said, "Aunt is not such a person. "Not to mention the identity of my aunt, just talking about the things that my aunt sends from the capital every year, I know that my aunt is not only a rich man, but also a very generous person, how can such a person covet my grandfather's things.

Miao didn't think so, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "I don't know my heart if I know people." Miao thinks no one thinks there is a lot of money.

Dong Yu opened her eyes and said sharply: "Even if your grandfather wants to give these things to your aunt, it is your grandfather's decision, let us hear these bastard words in the future, and go back to your mother's house." "Her father is not dead yet, and these juniors are thinking about his father's things, which is really chilling.

Dong Yu is a good mother-in-law, and she has always been kind to her daughter-in-law, but this is the first time she has lost her temper, and Miao's face turned white with fright.

Mingzhu's eyes were vicious, and he had already seen the dissatisfaction flashing in Miao's eyes, and after the others left, Mingzhu said: "You have to have a heart, don't contribute to others and contribute money to be hated." ”

Yueyao didn't care, as long as she had a clear conscience, why should she care what others thought: "Let you stay for a few more days, but you don't want to, when I'm done with things here, I'll go to Suzhou to see you." ”

Mingzhu said with a smile: "You have to be busy opening an art exhibition, and I won't delay you here, by the way, the three brothers of Brother Sheng don't have to worry about going to the academy, what should Kexin do?" Yueyao, it's not that I'm talking about you, how can you always keep Kexin at home? Kexin has been bored at home and doesn't even have a friend, how lonely! And she doesn't go out and around often, how can she know how to communicate with people?" Mingzhu also knows Yueyao, as long as Yueyao paints, she doesn't even know her father and mother, and it's rare for Yueyao not to teach her children crookedly.

Yue Yao smiled and said, "I want Kexin to go to Suzhou with you for a while." "Mingzhu is very good except for being a little impetuous, and with her nurturing grandmother by her side, Yueyao is not worried that Mingzhu will teach her daughter crookedly.

Mingzhu snorted: "You have already made a calculation for your feelings." ”

Yue Yao smiled and said, "What, don't you want to?"

Mingzhu smiled happily: "Haha, willing, willing, why don't you want to?" Let Kexin go to Suzhou with me tomorrow. "She has always coveted people with daughters, and now that she has brought Kexin back, she doesn't have to covet other people's families.

Yueyao looked at Mingzhu, who was smiling happily, and asked, "Haven't you recovered yet?" Seeing that Mingzhu wants a daughter so much, you know that Mingzhu doesn't want to give birth, but she can't give birth.

Mingzhu was a little depressed and said: "I have raised it a long time ago, but I don't know what's going on, I just can't get pregnant." After Mingzhu said this, her eyes lit up: "Yueyao, your picture of Guanyin is the most effective, you can draw me another one, Yueyao, you must agree to me about this." ”

Yue Yao shook her head and said: "The teacher said that I was not allowed to paint Buddha statues before, and it is not good to disobey his old man's will here, when I go to Suzhou, I will paint it for you!" Mr. Yushan did say such things, but the most important thing now is that Yueyao doesn't have time.

Mingzhu didn't bother either, and said with a smile: "Okay! Then I'll wait for you in Suzhou. ”

Yue Yao immediately told Ke Xin about her going to Suzhou with Mingzhu, and Yue Yao explained: "My mother will be very busy lately, and I can't take care of you anymore, I want you to go to Suzhou with your aunt." ”

Kexin knew that Mingzhu liked her very much, but she didn't want to go to Suzhou: "Mother, I don't want to leave you and my brother, Mother, you don't have to worry about me, I will take care of myself." Although this is not her home, she feels very relieved to have her mother and brother here.

Yue Yao touched Kexin's hair and said with a smile: "Silly child, I just asked you to go to live with your aunt for a while, and when your mother is done with the things at hand, she will go to Suzhou to see you." ”

Kexin asked cautiously, "Mother, how long?"

Yueyao pondered for a moment and said: "For about four or five months, Suzhou is so close to Hangzhou, if you miss your mother and brother, you can come back at any time." "It's the end of April, so it's better to schedule the exhibition in September.

Kexin is reluctant to go to Suzhou deep down, staying by her mother's side can do anything, and there must be a lot of inconvenience in going to other people's homes: "Mother, can I not go?"

Yue Yao sighed slightly: "No, you must go." Mingzhu said that those concerns are very reasonable, Kexin is not better than her, but she can't keep being locked at home without contact with people outside, the last incident showed that Kexin is very sensitive, which is probably caused by keeping her daughter at home all the time and not going out.

Ke Xin's expression was gloomy.

Yueyao hugged Kexin and said softly, "Mother is for your good." Yueyao felt a little guilty, but she couldn't have both, she could only be an incompetent mother.

The next day, Yueyao sent Mingzhu and Kexin and his party away, and when they left, Kexin hugged Yueyao and cried.

Brother Sheng and Brother Fei are fine, but Brother Xu is crying together, this meeting, I don't know what happened?

Mingzhu is a sensual person, and tears came out at the moment, she looked at Yueyao, if Yueyao spoke up now, she wouldn't take Kexin to Suzhou.

Although Yueyao also had red eyes, she didn't say anything to let Kexin stay, and said while wiping Kexin's tears: "Kexin, when you arrive in Suzhou, you have to listen to your aunt's words, you know?"

Kexin's tears couldn't be stopped, and she couldn't speak.

Sending everyone away, Xiang Weicai said, "Kexin doesn't know who she looks like?" Wouldn't it be three or five months apart? It's like parting from life and death.

Yue Yao said with some guilt: "The child is still young, and she has never left me since she was a child, and now she has rushed to a strange place, and there is no relatives around her, she must be very scared in her heart." I remember when she was seven years old when she returned to Beijing from Jiangnan, she was also terrified.

Xiang Wei almost knelt for Yueyao: "This thing is not comparable at all, is it good?" What's that situation for you? What does Kexin look like?" Yueyao returned to the capital from Jiangnan that day, it was the loss of her parents, no matter who encountered this situation, she would be panicked, and now Kexin just went to Suzhou to live for a while, as if it was a play.

Yue Yao felt that she should be in a similar mood.

Xiang Wei shook her head helplessly, no matter how much she argued, she couldn't come out: "If you let Kexin go to Suzhou, have you already decided to choose Xiaotuanzi?" Yue Yao asked Ke Xin to go to Suzhou, maybe she had the intention of letting Mingzhu take care of her, Xiang Wei felt that these were all excuses on the surface, and the real reason was that Yue Yao wanted Ke Xin to be familiar with the situation of the Niu family, and when Ke Xin married into the Niu family in the future, she would not be a stranger.

Yue Yao smiled and nodded: "Although this child is only ten years old now, he has also grown up watching him since he was a child, and he understands his temperament and temperament, which can reassure me." ”

Xiang Wei said happily: "When I was on the road, I had already passed through the wind with Xiao Tuanzi, which means that Zhu intends to let Kexin be his daughter-in-law, and Xiao Tuanzi will be very happy when he knows it?" She was afraid of Yueyao's opposition at the time, so she didn't dare to tell Yueyao, but now it seems that her decision is very wise.

Yue Yao was also very happy and said, "Then there is nothing to worry about, when you return to the capital, you will settle this matter!"

Yueyao, who has no worries, takes her painting tools to scenic spots every day, goes out early and returns late every day, and is so busy that she can't see anyone.

Mingzhu took Kexin to Suzhou, Niu Yanghui thought that Mingzhu had turned the child over, and was startled, and when he knew that it was Yueyao's meaning, Niu Yanghui was surprised: "Is there something wrong with the second sister?" It's okay, and I won't even care about my daughter.

Mingzhu was on fire when she went to Hangzhou, but now a few days later, the fire has also disappeared, and Mingzhu immediately told Niu Yanghui about Yueyao's preparation for the exhibition: "Sun Yueyao will be very busy during this time, she can't take care of Kexin, so she wants me to help take care of it for a while." ”

Niu Yanghui felt that Yue Yao was a bit risky in this matter, Jiangnan literary style is very prosperous, and he especially likes to pursue those talented people, Yue Yao is talented, and she is also famous in the capital, but Yue Yao is famous for painting portraits and Buddha statues, Jiangnan literati will not buy it, and Yue Yao also has a fatal weakness, that is, she is a woman, even if Yue Yao is a disciple of Mr. Yushan, those proud literati will not pursue a woman, the reason is very simple, no one wants to be pressed down by a woman.

Mingzhu muttered: "If you want me to say, none of those talents who boast of outstanding painting skills can compare to Yueyao." ”

Niu Yanghui doesn't refute this, he has seen all of Yueyao's paintings, not to mention that he can't compare with people in the same age as Yueyao, that is, few of those older painters can catch up: "This exhibition has to do a good job in the early stage, and there can be no chaos." "If it is operated properly, Yueyao will be famous all over the world, and if it is not operated properly, even Mr. Yushan will be tired.

Mingzhu frowned, she knew in her heart that her husband's worries were not unreasonable: "I'll tell Yueyao about this, so that Yueyao has a number in her heart." ”

Yue Yao received Mingzhu's letter and handed it to Xiang Wei after reading it.

After reading the letter, Xiang Wei said: "Niu Yanghui has served in Suzhou for so many years, and he must have a deeper understanding of the people here than us, and we must also pay attention to his worries. ”

Yue Yao nodded and said, "There's nothing to worry about, I'm not opening an exhibition as a closed disciple of Mr. Yushan." "He opened the exhibition in the name of the mountain and wild monks, and there will definitely be no fewer people who come to see the exhibition, as for saying that everyone will not cheer after seeing it, it is absolutely impossible, Yue Yao is still very confident in his painting art.

Xiang Wei smiled: "There is no big mistake in being careful. ”

Yueyao nodded: "It's already May now, and there are still four months to go, so we don't have to worry, just arrange it slowly." ”

Yue Yao thought she still had a lot of time, but Mr. Yushan felt that Yue Yao was in a hurry, Yue Yao had also made a lot of paintings over the years, Yue Yao had always been striving for perfection, and the paintings that could stay were all high-quality, high-quality were high-quality, but there were not many works.

Mr. Yushan made a suggestion: "Yueyao, your figure paintings and Buddha statues are very good, this exhibition should be added, in addition, your willow body and plum blossom seal font are also perfect, you have to write a few good characters, and then they will be exhibited." ”

Yue Yao thought about it for a moment and agreed.

Mr. Yushan said: "You have your own idea which Buddha statue to draw, and as for the portrait, you can draw me!" Now that he's so old, he can also draw a portrait

Yue Yao smiled and nodded, "Okay." ”

Yueyao was so busy that she couldn't even take care of her three sons, she couldn't see her mother for a day, and the three brothers of Brother Sheng still endured it, but they couldn't see the shadow of their mother for several days, and the three brothers couldn't help it, Brother Xu was the first to ask: "Master, what has my mother been busy with lately?" We won't see her anymore. ”

Mr. Yushan smiled: "Your mother is doing serious business, don't bother her." "Yueyao can devote herself to painting, and the happiest person is Mr. Yushan, the student is promising, and the most gratifying thing is naturally the teacher.

Brother Xu muttered, and he looked like he could hang a soy sauce bottle: "Master, what is my mother doing seriously?"

Mr. Yushan smiled and said, "Let your mother tell you when the time comes." ”

Brother Xu was a little aggrieved: "We want to ask, but my mother doesn't have time to pay attention to us." "My mother is busy with herself every day, and even when she comes back, she is always in the studio, and she has no time to pay attention to them.

Mr. Yushan laughed and scolded: "What nonsense? Hurry up and do your homework, if you don't finish it, I'll be punished heavily. "Although Mr. Yushan loves his three children very much, he doesn't dote on them, and if the children dare to be lazy and slack, he will also be severely punished.

Brother Xu is very aggrieved, his father has never seen him since he was a child, he doesn't even know what he looks like, his mother is so busy every day that he can't see anyone, he thinks that the three brothers are like children without a father and a mother.

Before Brother Sheng could speak, Brother Fei jumped up angrily: "Third brother, be careful if you talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death." "Although his father is in the northwest, he is very concerned about their brothers, as for the mother, usually the mother is also with them, but the recent time is very busy and can't take care of them, although Fei Ge'er is also a little depressed, but he never thought of cursing his father and mother! Similarly, he did not allow Brother Xu to curse his father.

Brother Xu said unadmittedly: "Did I say something wrong?"

Brother Sheng hurriedly appeased Brother Fei'er, who was on the verge of rage, and said, "Third child, do you know what a child without a father and mother looks like? Fan He is a child without a father and a mother, do you think we are the same as him?"

Fan He is the classmate of Brother Sheng'er, as old as them, Fan He is very smart, very good at reading, very much liked by Mr., but Fan He's life is a little bad, Fan He's father died when he was three years old, and his grandmother is dependent on each other, and now he lives on the relief of the clan, therefore, Fan He has a very hard life, the clothes he wears on weekdays are with patches, and the daily food is cabbage and radish, Brother Xu once said that Fan He is very pitiful!

Brother Xu hurriedly said: "How can I be the same as him." "Even if my mother asks them to be frugal on weekdays, they don't wear brocade clothes, but they don't wear clothes full of patches, and the daily meals are very rich.

Fei Ge'er said coldly: "Didn't you say that it's like having no father and no mother? Why is it different from Fan He?"

Brother Xu didn't dare to speak.

The quarrel between the three brothers quickly reached Xiang Wei's ears, Xiang Wei didn't tell Yue Yao about it, for fear that Yue Yao would be distracted, Xiang Wei told Mr. Yushan about it: "Brother Xu'er's temperament is a little perverse, it's okay to be young now, I'm worried that I won't be able to control it when I grow up." When she arrived in Jiangnan, Xiang Wei found that the four children seemed to have been taught crooked by her and Yueyao, especially Brother Xu, who came up with all kinds of strange ideas when they were unhappy, and it was dangerous to go on like this.

Mr. Yushan smiled and said: "People, none of them are perfect, not to mention that he is still a six-year-old child, Brother Xu has a lot of problems, but as long as he guides him well, he will be fine." "Brother Xu is only so big, these little problems can be corrected.

Xiang Wei said respectfully: "Mr. Lao." ”

Mr. Yushan waved his hand and said, "What is the trouble or not the trouble, I am their master, I am what I should do!"
