He originally wanted to ask Shu Qingci to share some of the housekeeping affairs with the second aunt, but after thinking about it, he was worried that Shu Qingci would be displeased, so he didn't speak.

"Daddy, since my daughter took care of the house, she realized the hard work of her father when he took care of the entire Shu family in the past, I just managed a back house, and I was already a little overwhelmed, but I can imagine how hard my father worked every day."

As she spoke, a hint of sadness appeared on her face, and then she sighed. He whispered to himself: "If Qingci can have a brother or a younger brother, I'm afraid that my father won't need to do it himself, but it's a pity that Qingci is a daughter and can't help my father too much, alas!"

Although she seemed to be muttering to herself, Master Shu on the side still heard all what she said clearly.

The Shu family has no children, this matter has always been the heart disease of Master Shu, he took two wives, and the offspring that can be obtained are all daughters. After the death of the eldest lady, the second aunt has been in charge of the backyard, he was busy with business transactions with the royal family, and unconsciously forgot about the Shu family's queen.

Now that he heard his daughter mention this, the sorrow and miscellaneous things of the past came, and his face immediately changed, and his face was even more sad.

The great business of the Shu family also depends on the unremitting efforts of several generations of ancestors in the court, so that the Shu family is now prosperous, he really can't think that if he is a hundred years later, what will the Shu family fall to.

He pondered for a moment, then sighed and muttered to himself, "This daughter will marry sooner or later, it seems that the Shu family still has to have a queen......

The second aunt looked at the two of them and muttered to herself, and her face was even more sad, so she deliberately turned sideways and eavesdropped some, and when she heard this, her face also changed.

Instead, she raised her lips and smiled, raised her glass and saluted Master Shu.

"Master, I want to reward Xiaoyue today, you see her sitting there alone, how pitiful."

Ye Hanyue was eating with her head down, and when she heard this, she almost didn't squirt out.

The second aunt's trick was very useful, and Master Shu's attention quickly turned to Ye Hanyue.

After a meal, although Ye Hanyue got some rewards, she got more doubts in her heart, she inexplicably felt that Shu Qingci had changed a little, but when she wanted to explore her carefully, she was the same as before.

This feeling haunted her all night.

Early the next morning, Ye Hanyue thought that the Shu family didn't seem to have any major events recently, and she herself hadn't cared about her business in Nanlaiju for a few days, although she went to Nanlaiju twice in the past two days, but every time she went, she was very anxious, and she didn't have time to calculate her own income with Lin Bai.

Since she had made up her mind to earn some silver taels before returning to modern times, she would definitely not do the kind of thing of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days.

Therefore, she prepared the things that Shu Qingci wanted to use in the morning early, and when Shu Qingci got up in the morning, everything was done much faster.

She waited for Shu Qingci to finish breakfast, cleaned her hands, and then respectfully said the leave.

"Miss, the slave maid sees that the weather outside is very good today, and she wants to go out."

Ye Hanyue had to find all kinds of reasons to clean up before taking leave, since Shu Qingci took the initiative to say that she wanted to be commensurate with her sisters, she was not polite to Shu Qingci, as long as there was something, she said that the weather was good and she wanted to go out for a walk.

Shu Qingci just smiled and nodded every time, but this time she wiped her hands, looked up at Ye Hanyue with a calm face, and asked, "Xiaoyue, I remember that you always seem to be taking leave of absence lately, but what happened?" If you encounter something difficult, you can tell me, and I can help you. ”

Ye Hanyue glanced at Shu Qingci, took the handkerchief in her hand, and then said with a relaxed smile: "Miss, the slave has no relatives and no reason, and she can serve the young lady every day, how can the slave and maid encounter anything difficult."

She crossed Shu Qingci's side, put the handkerchief in her hand on the basin shelf, and then turned around and walked back, looking a little embarrassed, and said

"Miss, the slave is just a little playful, and I want to go out of the house to see what is new."

Shu Qingci's eyes were as clear as autumn water, staring at her for a while, and then revealing a hint of a smile.

"Since you want to go out for a walk, then go ahead, there should be nothing to do in the house recently, I am very tired in this body, so I will not go with you."

Ye Hanyue was happy in her heart, and then nodded with a smile.

"It's still the best for Miss to Xiaoyue."

Shu Qingci hooked her lips, and then smiled lightly, she looked at Ye Hanyue's face as before, her eyes were a little darker, but it was only for a moment, and she covered it up.

"Xiaoyue, since you are going to leave the house, then go now, if I have something to do, I will call Dong'er." She smiled lightly, her thin pink lips curving at a suitable angle.

"Hmm...... That is done, the slave and maid go early and return early. ”

Ye Hanyue smiled gratefully at Shu Qingci, and then turned around and walked out of the room.

Shu Qingci looked at Ye Hanyue, who was walking away in the courtyard alone, and a cold sneer spread from the corner of her mouth to her eyes.

Ye Hanyue left the Shu family, and went directly to Nanlaiju, she thought that she would go to Nanlaiju earlier, and she would go back earlier after calculating the accounts.

Although Shu Qingci gave her a fake, she is now also someone's personal maid, so even if Shu Qingci doesn't say anything about her, if the Shu family knows that she doesn't serve Miss well every day, she will run out of the house from time to time, maybe the two uneasy ones in the backyard of the Shu family will ask her about her guilt.

She has offended Shu Churou and her second aunt many times because of Shu Qingci, and her current situation in the Shu family is far more dangerous than Shu Qingci. Shu Qingci is the daughter of the Shu family, even if she encounters something as long as she doesn't lose her life, she is supported by Master Shu, who is like her, a humble person, if the two white lotuses catch her mistake one day, it will definitely kill her.

Therefore, before she returns to modern times, she must definitely maintain twelve points of vigilance, and must not let the second aunt kill her first.

Ye Hanyue walked all the way, bypassed an alley, and saw the signboard of Nanlaiju.

At this time, it was already past the morning, so there were many people gathered at the door of Nanlaiju, they were of different ages, heights, fat and thin, but those who could come to Nanlaiju were naturally not to buy paintings, that is, to see paintings.

Before Ye Hanyue could pass through the noise of the crowd, she saw Lin Bai walking out of Nanlai Curie with an anxious face.

"Shopkeeper Lin." She stepped forward first and said hello.

When Lin Bai saw her, his face immediately showed joy.

"The girl came just in time, Lin is waiting for the distinguished guest to come and pick up the girl's painting." He was worried that others would hear it, so he took Ye Hanyue a ride and took her to the box in the store, and said happily.

When Ye Hanyue heard that she was here to pick up her own paintings, she was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Boss Lin, can you tell me which family in the capital is that distinguished guest?"

Since her paintings were first sent to Nanlaiju to be hung up, they have attracted many people who love paintings to come and buy them, and her paintings are so popular that Lin Bai will naturally not sell her paintings at the original low price.

She had also asked before, so she knew that the average asking price of her current paintings was still quite high, she looked at Lin Bai's happy appearance, and estimated that her own paintings should have been set a lot, otherwise Lin Bai would not be so happy with such a calm person.

If she can buy a few of her paintings, she can be regarded as her fan, she has never been so admired in her previous life, so she naturally wants to see this person who appreciates her paintings.

"This ......" Lin Bai hesitated for a while, and then said in embarrassment: "Miss Xiaoyue, that distinguished guest only paid the deposit for the painting, and did not leave any information, Lin did not know who that person was, but the distinguished guest left a word, in the future, he wanted all the paintings made by the girl, Lin saw that he was generous, and he did not hesitate when he took out the deposit, Lin estimated that the distinguished guest may be a rich man in the capital."

What Lin Bai said is the truth, although the paintings sold by Nanlaiju usually have buyer records, but these must be filled in voluntarily according to the wishes of the guests, therefore, the distinguished customers who buy the paintings made by Ye Hanyue do not want to leave their names and addresses, and it is not easy for him to force people to stay as the shopkeeper.

Ye Hanyue and Lin Bai had already dealt with each other many times, so they naturally knew a little bit about the rules of Nanlaiju. She asked the guest about the situation because she was curious, and since Lin Bai didn't know his identity, she didn't ask any more.

However, she was surprised that the man would order all her paintings, and although she sold them to make money, she had not yet reached the point where she thought her paintings were many times more than ordinary people.

When Lin Bai's shopkeeper saw her frowning slightly, he looked thoughtful, and guessed in his heart that she must be worrying about the person who bought the painting.

"Girl, today the distinguished guest will come to pick up the painting that was not taken last time, if you are really curious about the guest, you might as well wait until the distinguished guest comes."

Every time Ye Hanyue came and went in a hurry, Lin Bai thought for a moment, and felt that if she really wanted to see that distinguished guest, there was only one way.

"Really?" Ye Hanyue heard that the distinguished guest would come to pick up the painting later, and immediately turned happy, and there was a smile between her eyebrows and eyes, "That's fine, then bother the shopkeeper Lin to borrow the backyard study to the little girl, and when the distinguished guest comes to the door, you will let the guy inform me again." ”

"That's nature, girl, please." As soon as Lin Bai heard that Ye Hanyue was going to borrow the study again, he knew that she was going to paint again, and her paintings were now the biggest source of wealth for Nanlaiju, so he was naturally willing to lend the study.

Ye Hanyue followed Lin Bai to the backyard study, because she had a word last time, so this time Lin Bai could watch her paint again, and after a lot of effort, it was already half an hour later.

"Shopkeeper Lin, there is a distinguished guest outside who has come to pick up Yan Han's paintings."

Outside the study, the voice of a man was heard. Ye Hanyue raised her head and glanced outside, then immediately put down the brush in her hand, and ignored the unfinished painting on the desk, and got up directly to leave.
