"Is this what your cousin painted?" Mrs. Tang was dumbfounded and said, that little girl is only a few years old, and she can actually paint her ancestors vividly, although she can't compare with famous teachers, but it is much better than children of the same age.

"Exactly! In the morning, we were stunned when Miss Biao took out the portrait, don't you know, the fourth master of the Xiao family is quite insightful in calligraphy and painting, Miss Biao has been with this master since she was a child, and naturally received a lot of guidance. Coupled with a grandmother from the palace who is raised, how can it be bad! The housekeeper gushed on and on.

"Your cousin is still surrounded by the nurturing grandmother in the palace!" At this moment, Mrs. Tang was even more surprised.

"On the day of your ancestor's birthday, the person who followed Miss Biao was the very famous Mama Ruan in Kyoto, and she chose our Miss Cousin after thousands of selections, it is said that when she was in the palace, she specially taught a princess with grades."

"Bring my reading glasses." The ancestor of the Tang family did not have the eyes of a young man, and she was ready to borrow a mirror to appreciate the little girl's masterpiece.

Wearing the mirror and looking at it for a long time, the ancestor of the Tang family said that he liked this portrait very much, and asked about the body of the Mrs. Tong and the old man.

"May I ask this grandmother, is Miss Xiao still in Suzhou now?" Tang Hao had a faint bad premonition, I was afraid that Miss Xiao was leaving.

"They've already gone to the docks, and now they guess they're on the boat!" The housekeeper said with some uncertainty.

"Yanbo, you go to the master to help me take a day off, ancestor, mother, I'll go out, you don't have to wait for me to come back at noon." Tang Hao trotted out of the upper room, got on his horse and went out.

As for where it went? Don't guess, Mrs. Tang sighed in her heart, remembering the words of her son, but the little girl is gone, what's the use of her son worrying about it, this is probably the so-called fate!

The Xiao family's salute on the dock has been loaded onto the boat, but the boatman said that the wind and waves are a little strong, and they have to wait before they can set off, so the group found a nearby restaurant and waited for the boat to leave while eating.

"Yo, didn't the prodigy go to school today? Please come in, you can come, the shop is really shining! The shopkeeper of the restaurant complimented, he had seen the prodigy of the Tang family from afar under the guidance of a friend, and he was able to get in close contact today, which made him happy.

"I want to ask the shopkeeper, have you ever seen a little girl who looks like a little fairy, about seven or eight years old, and there is a smaller girl next to her, and there should be a few adults with her." Tang Hao tried his best to describe the anxious mood as much as possible, this was already the sixth restaurant he was looking for.

"There is such a young lady, she is in the private room upstairs, and I will ask Xiao Er to take you up." The shopkeeper said attentively.

"Then I'm sorry for you." Finally found it, while Tang Hao let go of his worries, he began to rack his brains again and think about how to open his mouth when they met for a while, and how to explain the reason why he appeared here?

"Why are you so reckless, when you meet someone else's little girl, I see how you speak." Master Tang, who had just caught up with his son, pointed at his son and reprimanded him in a low voice, just like this little girl, go dream!

"So what do you say you should do?" The third young master of the Tang family, who couldn't learn a difficult book, had no idea at this time, he only knew that he had to see Xiao Yao, and he hadn't thought about what to say.

"Master Tong is right behind me, I guess I'm also here to see him off, I'll meet him later, and then I'll talk." Tong Guangyu went to the yamen early in the morning, and now he found time to see him off, and Tang Tongju also came in a hurry after his wife asked him to send the letter quickly.

"Tang Tong judged that it was ...... to come to the wharf"

"Send a friend, where are you going?"

"My niece is leaving today, and I've been busy until now before I found time to see her off, if it wasn't for the wind today, I guess I would have missed it."

Tang Hao is also very grateful for today's sea breeze, otherwise, he may not have time to see him off, does this prove that the fate between himself and Miss Xiao is not shallow! When Tang Hao thought of this meaning, his mood was agitated.

"Is that the little girl from the Xiao family? My grandmother just wanted to thank her for the gift, and I wonder if I can go with you. After Lord Tang said this, he quietly glared at his youngest son, is it easy for your father? In order for you to meet that girl smoothly, this lie is going to be told a lot.

Tang Hao smiled apologetically at his father, his son really has no choice, who will help if you don't help!

Tong Guangyu's heart moved slightly, did this guy really send a friend instead of a special trip for his son? The motive is questionable!

In the private room, Xiao Jingmin, Xiao Lang and Tong Jinsheng sat opposite each other, chatting and laughing, and Mama Ruan accompanied the two little girls to sit by the window and look at the passers-by outside.

"Father, why are you here?" Tong Jinsheng sat on the opposite side of the door, so he was the first to see Tong Guangyu and the Tang family's father and son enter the door.

"Of course, I'm here to send off two precious nieces." Tong Guangyu helped the Xiao family's uncle and nephew introduce Tang Tongju and his son.

Tong Jinsheng took advantage of the gap between his fathers' speeches and whispered to Xiao Lang: "Look at that kid, he has coveted Ping'an's cousin for a long time, and he is estimated to have come to see him off today." ”

This was repaid, Xiao Lang immediately cheered up and stared at Tang Hao, hating to drive him out of the private room.

"I was appointed by my ancestors to thank Miss Xiao for the paintings, but I didn't expect you to leave Suzhou, Tang is here to wish you a safe journey." Tang Tong raised his glass with tea instead of wine and said.

"The old lady can like the gift I gave, I am very happy, and thank you Lord Tang and Tang Gongzi for coming to see her off." Xiao Yao stood up and bowed deeply to Tang Tongju, and came to Suzhou for a turn, and after counting it, he only knew Tang Gongzi a person of the same age.

Xiao Yao found that she had no friends, and the girls were almost as far away as they could when they saw her, and the boys except for Jiabao were their five elder brothers and one younger brother.

"I will study hard and go to a seowon in Kyoto in the future." Tang Hao said such a sentence very suddenly, Xiao Jingmin was puzzled, Xiao Yao and Xiao Yuan couldn't figure out what this had to do with themselves. The rest of the people more or less understand what this kid means, he is ready to go to Kyoto to find Xiao Yao, now it can be regarded as a promise, but unfortunately the other party is just an ignorant little girl, and he can't understand Tang Hao's good intentions at all.

"As the saying goes, it's better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, it's always good to have a chance to go out and take a look, and the third brother of Ping An also wants to study in the south!" Xiao Jingmin only felt that Tang Hao was quite ambitious, and he had a good impression of him, so he casually said Xiao Yang's plan.

"When Third Brother Xiao comes to the south, the little nephew will definitely do his best to entertain him as a landlord." If he can get along with Miss Xiao's brother, it will be beneficial to his future and will not do any harm, Tang Hao, who was still stunned just now, suddenly found the goal of struggle.

Third uncle, you are luring the wolf into the room, Xiao Lang wailed in his heart; Third uncle of the Xiao family, when you know this kid's wolf ambition, you will definitely regret saying this, Tong Jinsheng thought firmly.

Half an hour later, the captain of the boat came to beckon everyone to board the boat, so everyone said goodbye again, and then went their separate ways.

Ten days later, the Xiao family arrived in Songjiang, and from here they could take a carriage to Kyoto in less than a day. Xiao Jingmin left two girls to live, and Xiao Lang went back to Kyoto to report the news.

Yuan Yutong has not seen her daughter and niece for a few months, she dutifully arranged the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the two people, either leading the sisters to watch juggling today, or taking them to listen to books tomorrow.

Mama Ruan was happy to see the two children, so she indulged them once, because she knew in her heart that the masters in Kyoto would not let the two of them live here for too long.

"There's a banquet in two days, do you want to go?" Yuan Yutong asked for the sisters' opinions.

"Okay!" Xiao Yuan replied with great interest.

"Can I not go?" Now when she hears that there is a banquet, Xiao Yao has a headache, people who are not popular are very pitiful, do you know? Every time she saw others getting together talking and laughing, Xiao Yao was envious. But let her cater to others against her will in order to make friends, Xiao Yao asked herself if she couldn't do this, so she could hide when she saw the banquet.

"Girls always have to make a few bosom friends, do you want to only play with your sister for the rest of your life?" Yuan Yutong plans to enlighten her little niece well.

Third aunt, it's not that I don't want to cooperate, the problem now is that people don't like to play with me, do you want me to grab each other and ask them to be friends with me? Then I'd rather not have any friends in my life, and I'll be lonely and old alone.

"You ...... in the future" If you get married, you have to learn to socialize for the future of your husband, and you always have to interact with your mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and sister-in-law, if you can't learn to get along with people, what can you do in the future! She can't let her daughter and niece understand these words right now, but the two children are not young anymore, and some things can no longer be left to their temperament.

Yuan Yutong only thought that her niece didn't like to socialize with outsiders, how did she know that it was not Xiao Yao who refused to make friends, in fact, it was those official ladies who were avoiding her at all and were unwilling to associate with her.

Xiao Yao knew the unfinished meaning of the third aunt's words, and also understood the truth, just go, it's still the same big deal, anyway, it's not the first time I've sat on the sidelines.

Yuan Yutong saw that Xiao Yao also nodded, and began to prepare clothes for the two of them, she neither had Li Jiaoying to match the clothes, nor did Tong Mingyu be meticulous. After thinking about it, she took the two little girls out and let them choose by themselves, and Mama Ruan was also interested in exercising the abilities of the two children, so she chose to watch from the sidelines and did not mention any opinions.
