Chapter 524: Multiple Choices
Fan Anyang was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Du, who was idle and found trouble for her, and Mrs. Du's reply from Mama was far from being dissatisfied!
"Damn! That fool didn't dare to come! Mrs. Du was annoyed, and angrily smashed the medicine bowl at hand, Qingqing stood beside her, her eyes couldn't help but squint, and she looked at the fragments of the medicine bowl distressedly.
The little maid who came to clean up the aftermath saw Qingqing's distorted face, and mistakenly thought that she was annoyed that they were not fast enough, and reminded each other that the movements in their hands were speeding up, and they cleaned up and retreated after a while.
Mrs. Du smashed the medicine bowl, Qingqing had to turn out and boil another bowl, not a fetal pill but a herbal tea that clears the heart and anneals, the weather is hot, Mrs. Du's temper is getting more and more anxious, and she gets angry at every turn, even the Du Yunfang brothers and sisters who have always been favored have been scolded, how can it not make people look frightened?
"Ma'am, tea." Qingqing brought herbal tea, and mint was added to the cooled herbal tea, the taste was very cool, and the burning heat in Mrs. Du's heart finally dissipated a little.
"Are those people settled?"
Because Mrs. Du is happy, so Mrs. Wan has sent a lot of people this time, Mrs. Du is somewhat wary of the people sent by her mother because of the matter of wishing Mama, otherwise she will not let people ask Fan Anyang to come over to help get ideas, if something happens again, Fan Anyang will have to take some responsibility for her and her mother, who knows that the dead girl will not come! I also said such a thing, I was really angry!
Qingqing was stunned, she had been in front of her wife, how did she know if those people had been settled? It's just that Mrs. Du has a big temper. wouldn't be happy to listen to her explanation, so Qingqing thought about it for a while and responded vaguely.
Mrs. Du didn't care if those people were settled. She just wanted to find an excuse to trouble Fan Anyang, otherwise how could she eliminate her resentment that she couldn't summon her daughter-in-law?
But the honest head Qingqing didn't know what she was thinking in her heart, she just wanted to hand over the errand, and Mrs. Du couldn't find a way to repair Fan Anyang, so she had to be half angry with herself.
Suddenly reminded her of something, she hurriedly asked Qingqing, "Grandma Da Young has gone back to Gao's house again?" β
Qingqing nodded. Mrs. Du sneered, and asked again, "Are those girls tempted?" β
"The second young master is young and handsome. How can they not be moved when they see it? It's just that, madam, after all, they are the eldest young master's roommate, if something happens because of this......"
"Why do you manage so many people? People are not ashamed. If the man is not there, he can't stay up, if the second young master can be hooked by them, it is someone else's ability! Besides, who made the second daughter-in-law young and couldn't control her own man? Mrs. Du thought of the rumors that had been circulating in the house for the past two days, and the corners of her mouth curled higher and higher.
Although Qingqing felt that it was inappropriate, how could Mrs. Du be willing to listen to persuasion?
"Besides, the second child is going to be twenty, and there is no intimate person in the house who knows the heat and the cold. This is a dereliction of duty by the second daughter-in-law! Mrs. Du raised her eyebrows at Qingqing. The second brother guards me tightly, if I give him a room directly to wait for him, he will definitely not want it. β
Mrs. Du paused. Raised his hand and stroked his sideburns, "I feel sorry for him!" Look at his brother's concubine, he is going to add a ding to him! He and his second daughter-in-law can't have a round house yet! How long will it take to add Ding to the home? If he opens his mind, he will take those few who have been sent to the door! I don't think his brother will bother with him. β
Qingqing pouted secretly, Madame's trick was really vicious. No matter how shrewd the second young grandmother is, she is just a child who doesn't understand the amorous feelings, how can she be able to get those charming foxes! Not to mention that those women are the eldest young master's maids.
If this kind of thing reaches the ears of Xiangye. I'm afraid that the second young master will not be able to fall well!
Mrs. Du thinks that this is a good idea, which can not only make Du Yunxun's brother have a gap, but also add to Fan Anyang's blockage, and the young grandmother who indulges her husband's maid to seduce her uncle will also eat and hang, and it can be counted in one fell swoop, no matter how cost-effective!
The more she thought about it, the happier Mrs. Du became, so she asked Qingqing to call someone, and she wanted to push it again!
After Fan Anyang arranged the people sent by the Wanjia family, the people sent by Mama Fang to keep an eye on the side courtyard of the big house sent the news back, and Mrs. Du's people took advantage of the absence of the eldest young grandmother to go to the side courtyard to visit the door, and the few people who lived in the side courtyard began to quarrel again.
Mama Fang hurriedly came to return to Fan Anyang, "Don't worry, I'm afraid she won't move!" β
After letting Mama Fang sit down, after asking carefully, Fan Anyang held her cheeks in a daze, Mama Fang and Mama Fan exchanged glances, and didn't bother her for a long time, Fan Anyang asked: "I remember that the third young master is not young, right?" β
"It's not small! Do you want to ......"
"Madame has the heart of a beloved son, how can she let the second young master receive it alone? The third young master has been favored since he was a child, how can he be left alone if he has benefits, right? "Since his mother wants to block their husband and wife, it's not good for her not to return the gift!
Mama Fan hesitated a little, "The third young master is still young!" β
"It doesn't look small." Fan Anyang snorted coldly, Du Yunfang is a head taller than her, and it really doesn't seem small. Mama Fang nodded secretly, "This game is set up by Madame, let's just provide them with one more choice." β
After making up his mind, Fan Anyang asked them to go their separate ways.
Later, the young grandmother asked people to bring a letter back, her mother's situation has made great progress, and she and Xiao Niannian want to stay in the Gao family for a few days.
It is a good thing that Mrs. Gao's injury has progressed, and Du Xiang naturally readily agreed, asking Fan Anyang to send daily necessities to the grandmother, mother and daughter of the eldest grandmother.
Although Du Yunxun remembered to come back for dinner this night, but the time when he came back was a little late, Fan Anyang accompanied him to ask about Du Yunqi's room while having dinner.
"I didn't tell you because I didn't think it was necessary, they were the eldest brother's women, and the eldest brother was not there, so they were restless, and I have written to the eldest brother to see what he wants to do with them." Du Yunxun took a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it slowly and swallowed it before he said to Fan Anyang.
"What will the big brother do?"
"The few who served him before were all married by him, and they are still aunts! Now these few people in the house are just maids in the house, if they are safe, they are looking for a suitable marriage, otherwise they are directly sold. Du Yunxun didn't understand why Fan Anyang was involved in this matter.
Fan Anyang had to take the rumors in the house for the past two days. When Mrs. Du's actions were told to him, Du Yunxun shook his head with a smile, "She is very good at calculating." β
"If you have time these days. Just ask the third brother to go to the study for a walk! β
Du Yunxun immediately understood what the little wife wanted to do! immediately responded, and then discussed with her, "Big brother's yard is there, you can't avoid it, why don't I move things back to the house?" β
"Do we have a place in the house for you to paint? Doesn't that need to be extremely secretive? β
"It's going to be secretive." Du Yun said, "I'm just a gentleman who only worked in Taixue because of his master's reputation. If it weren't for the emperor's weight, where would it be my turn to complete this map! β
Fan Anyang listened to him depreciate himself like this. displeased, "That's because they don't have long eyes, it's not that you are not talented!" You are not allowed to despise yourself. β
"I didn't!" Du Yunxun grabbed Fan Anyang's little hand, "I know my own catties." I don't look down on myself, but I don't overestimate myself either. β
Fan Anyang didn't know how to appease him for a while, but Du Yunxun took her into his arms, "Actually, this trip to the northwest opened my eyes, and after seeing the vast world in the northwest, I wanted to share that touch with you." β
"So you drew that album?" Fan Anyang is talking about Du Yunxun's catalogue of paintings that he always carries, full of landscapes he has painted casually, and the rough brushstrokes are completely different from his usual meticulous depictions.
Fan Anyang said: "Why don't you use the pictures in that album as the base." Try the new painting technique that Master said that day. β
"You mean the way to paint with oil?" Du Yunxun was stunned, he didn't think that he could use this painting method for other paintings.
"You're not going to draw a map? Then you have to be proficient in the technique, and you can't use the things on the map to practice the technique. Just right, take the paintings in your album to practice your technique, there are many pictures in your album are very rough painting style, using traditional ink to express xiΓ n, although it can also express that rough feeling, but I think if you can use dry brushwork. Maybe there will be a better table. β
"Well, let's try it then." Du Yunxun is like a stream. After a meal, the husband and wife went to the study room in the east chamber together, and selected two walls in the inner room of the study, one wall hung a canvas to practice techniques, and the other wall was naturally hung with a map.
The next day, Du Yunxun found an excuse to find Du Yunfang to his grandfather's study, after Mrs. Du heard the news, one was happy, the other was worried, worried that her son was close to Du Yunxun and would be harmed by Du Yunxun, and the happy thing was that Du Yunxun opened his mouth, and his son could go to the study in the name of justice, so he would have more opportunities to get close to Du Xiang and Master Du.
Du Yunfang's homework is not good, he has always seen his father and ancestor like a mouse seeing a cat, and he can't even speak clearly, although he had let Du Xiang take him with him before, but when a scumbag meets a scholar, he is born with insufficient confidence, especially after Du Yunxun came back from the northwest, he not only saw that his father and ancestor would be timid, but when he saw his second brother, he was even more cowardly.
Knowing that his second brother was looking for him, Du Yunfang's calf and stomach began to cramp, but if he didn't go, his second brother's reason was very strong, his paintings needed help to see if there was anything wrong.
"I don't know anything about paintings, why are you asking me to do it? Mother, you help me tell my second brother, I won't go! Du Yunfang found his mother and thought about it.
"If you are told to go, he didn't ask you to do it, he just asked you to help take a look! Your second brother's mission was given by the emperor, if you can help, you may be able to win the emperor's favor. Mrs. Du felt that since Du Yunxun asked Du Yunfang to help, she would definitely not hide Du Yunfang's merits in front of the emperor.
Du Yunfang felt that his second brother was not so stupid, he and his second sister-in-law were both Yan Chi's protΓ©gΓ©s, even if the second sister-in-law couldn't help, there was also the second sister-in-law's younger brother, that one was also Yan Chi's disciple, what was there that their sister and brother couldn't help, he had to be able to come in handy if he didn't know how to paint?
He felt that his second brother's move must have other intentions, but he couldn't think of it, and he didn't want to follow his second brother's wishes, but Mrs. Du thought that her youngest son was lazy, ignored his protests, and sent someone to accompany him to Du Xiang's study.
Du Yunfang is young and vigorous, he has not suffered setbacks, and Mrs. Du has spared no effort to dress up her children, so when Du Yunxun walked to the outer study with him, it was natural that he was more attracted to those in the courtyard of the big house than Du Yunxun.
Although Du Yunxun is handsome, he doesn't seem to be a good person to control, but Du Yunfang is not, he seems to be immature and sunny, and he is dizzy with a little patting, which is much better than the second young master's hard bones!
Unconsciously, their goals have quietly shifted! (To be continued)
