After handing in the papers, Shen Ao came out of the examination shed, and even the exam had made him a little numb, and he slowly got used to this kind of life, looking up at the sky, the sun was shining, the weather was excellent, and his heart relaxed slightly, and he remembered one thing: "I almost forgot, I borrowed Miss Tang's umbrella last time and haven't returned it!" Isn't it time to return it? ”

If he borrowed someone else's oil umbrella, Shen Ao didn't care, an umbrella was just a rare thing, but he knew the Tang family's family background very well, and knew that with the strength of the Tang family, he was afraid that when it rained, there would be no extra oil umbrella to use.

When I think about it this way, I feel that the oil umbrella must be returned; It just so happened that Zhao Boqiao also came out with pen and ink and food box, and when he saw Shen Ao, he paced over and said, "How did Brother Shen do in the exam?" ”

Shen Ao smiled slightly: "It's okay." ”

Zhao Boqi pulled out a hint of arrogance and said, "I also did well in the exam." ”

"I didn't ask you how you did in the exam, what are you doing without recruiting yourself?" Shen Ao had a lot of complaints in his heart, and he still smiled on his face: "Court painting is Brother Zhao's strength, for example, Mr. Ling Yu has always been good at court landscape painting, Brother Zhao's sentence is still too modest; There is still an urgent matter below, so I will take my leave first. ”

Saying that, Shen Aofei also left, Zhao Boqiao carefully recalled Shen Ao's words, and soon tasted the taste; That's not right.,Doesn't this guy mean that this son is not good at drawing wilderness? This point is poked at the sore spot of Zhao Boqiao, the three fathers and sons of the Zhao family are not allowed to leave the capital according to the law because they are the children of the clan, so most of the scenes painted are mainly in Bianjing, if they are taught to paint the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, the famous rivers and mountains in Shu, it will really be difficult for them.

Zhao Boqiao was indignant, and couldn't help thinking in his heart: "Hmph, wait for the list to come out, see how long you can be arrogant." ”

Shen Ao went back to the Guogong Mansion first, and happened to see Deng Long holding a Pu knife in the front yard to practice knives, a Pu Dao dancing tiger and tiger wind, the end is extremely powerful, a few little girls in the distance snickered, this guy became more and more energetic, he actually rolled a few times in a row, roaring in his mouth, and the wind scratched very much.

This personal bodyguard can be regarded as idle, Shen Ao's limelight passed, Deng Long wanted to go back to the front of the palace, but unfortunately the commander sent him back, Sanliu did not rely on, he was quite depressed, and he was a forbidden army Yu Hou, and now he feels that he has lost his establishment all of a sudden, and he stays in the mansion all the time, and his depression can be imagined; Fortunately, there are a lot of girls in the house who are slightly beautiful, and he straightens his mentality, so he is bent on playing with the wind.

Shen Ao quietly bypassed, went back to the house to get an oil umbrella, took a few more money to lure him out of the house, bought some dried fruits and candied fruits, and went to Master Tang's house in a hurry.

Still arrived at this courtyard, called the door, Tang Yan came out, and when he saw that it was Shen Ao, his face smiled slightly: "Shen Ao, how did you do in the exam?" Come on in! ”

Shen Ao went in and said to the disciple: "I just finished the exam, and I came here to return the oil umbrella today." ”

"Oil umbrella? What oil umbrella? Tang Yan took Shen Ao's oil umbrella and said, "Why doesn't the old man know?" ”

Shen Ao told what happened last time, Tang Yan listened, and suddenly revered, and put on a look of King Kong angry: "You kid, why didn't you say it earlier, go, go in and drink tea." ”

Shen Ao went in and put down the dried fruits and candied fruit, Tang Yan didn't say anything, in this era, the relationship between teachers and students is like father and son, and it is normal to give some small gifts.

Tang Yan went to the compartment to ask Mrs. Tang to make tea, and Shen Ao clearly heard Mrs. Tang's voice and said, "That Shen Ao? Oh, yes, Mo'er did lend him an umbrella, this Shen Ao looks like Zhou Zheng, his knowledge is also very good, and he is a good person, dead ghost, you come here, I have something to discuss with you. ”

Then the sound became quiet, inaudible.

"What are you whispering?" Shen Ao smiled bitterly and sat upright, knowing that he couldn't listen to the next words anymore.

In the next room, after a while, Tang Yan's voice came, first he said a "ah" in surprise, then a puzzled "huh", and then seemed to be contemplating and making a "hmm" sound, and in the end, it seemed to be a little embarrassed, and I heard Mrs. Tang say menacingly: "You dead ghost, what is there to think about this kind of thing, he is your student, what is the matter, in my opinion......"

Tang Yan's voice interrupted her hurriedly: "You are quieter, you are quieter, are you afraid that others will not hear?" ”

Mrs. Tang's voice became low again...... Later, it was Tang Mo'er's voice: "Daddy, what are you talking about?" ”

Mrs. Tang was immediately silenced, and Tang Yan's voice was heard: "Ahem...... didn't say anything, didn't say anything, it was Shen Ao who came to return the umbrella, your mother and I are going to make tea, go make tea. ”

Tang Mo'er frowned and came from the next room, and when she saw Shen Ao, she said generously: "How did Shen Gongzi do in the painting exam today?" ”

Shen Ao silently thought in his heart: "Damn, something is wrong, Lord Tang seems to want to stuff his daughter to me!" It's embarrassing! I don't know if Tang Mo'er knows? ”

Shen Ao raised his eyes, and saw Tang Mo'er's natural expression and demeanor, thinking that Tang Mo'er should not know, he hurriedly sat down and said: "The painting test is different from the ordinary exam, whether it is good or not, only the examiner can judge." ”

Tang Mo'er smiled: "Gongzi Jingyi won the first place in the exam, I don't know how many people are envious!" Hey, you're here to return the umbrella? An oil umbrella is nothing, and it is also worth remembering the son. ”

Shen Ao said with a straight face: "Miss Mo'er, I am very modest, you must not flatter me." ”

Tang Mo'er smiled again, the two of them sitting, but suddenly there were no words, Shen Ao secretly glanced at Tang Mo'er, and saw that her eyebrows were crooked, her small nose was slightly upturned, her face was like white jade, her face was like a morning flower, her clothes were not very luxurious, only a string of pearls hung on her neck, emitting a faint halo, reflecting her even more like a pink jade; On the whole person, I can feel a faint bookish aura, my eyes are full of waves, and I reveal the brilliance of wisdom.

Tang Mo'er saw that Shen Ao seemed to be looking at her, so she hurriedly turned her head and deliberately looked at the paintings on the wall, and said, "What does Shen Gongzi think of this painting?" ”

Shen Ao fixed his eyes and saw that this was a lady's painting, the painting as a whole was acceptable, he looked carefully, the level of the painting was really good, but it was a pity that although the lines were a little more solemn, but there was a little less aura, many details were a little stiff, and the brushwork was quite graceful, obviously made by a woman, his mind moved, and he couldn't help thinking: "Isn't this painting made by Tang Mo'er?" ”

Shen Ao smiled and said, "It's a good painting!" ”

Tang Mo'er smiled slightly: "It's just a good painting? ”

This is to break the casserole and ask to the end, Shen Ao had no choice but to say: "Better than many painters." ”

Dude won't fall into your trap! If it is said that this painting is not worth a penny, Tang Mo'er will definitely be angry, but if it is a superb masterpiece, Tang Mo'er will definitely say that her eyesight is not enough, so she will simply use the mud and perfunctory past.

Tang Mo'er only smiled, and was about to say something, but heard someone in the courtyard: "Lord Tang, Lord Tang is not there?" ”

Tang Mo'er frowned, slightly embarrassed; Shen Ao asked suspiciously, "Who is this?" ”

Tang Mo'er shook her head: "Don't ask, sit here." ”

Shen Ao had no choice but to sit upright, and when he heard Tang Yan walk out of the courtyard, he said to the man very embarrassedly: "It turned out to be Zhou Dong's family." ”

The man named Zhou Dongjia pulled his throat and said, "Lord Tang, do you have to settle the accounts for the past few months?" Your family buys rice on credit for nine cents every time, a total of five hundred and forty dollars in these two months, if you add interest, it will be considered consistent, this account, you should also pay it back, contemptible people are also doing small business, you don't want to go back to the account here, and teach me how to turnover. ”

Tang Yan was shocked: "Obviously, it is more than 500 texts, how did it become consistent, are you trying to slander people?" That's weird, didn't we say okay? When the salary is paid, I will pay you back, but this profit does not rise like this. ”

That Zhou Dongjia sneered: "What did Lord Tang say, the market is full of such money, you are a noble person who doesn't smell fireworks, don't you know?" Okay, I won't talk to you more, get the money. ”

Tang Yan said angrily: "You are blackmailing people for money, aren't you afraid that I will take you to see the official?" ”

Zhou Dongjia smiled: "Isn't the adult an official?" Ouch, the adults must have forgotten, even if they saw the official, the villain took up a reason, and he was not afraid. What's more, once you meet the official, I'm afraid that the adult's reputation will not be guaranteed! Adult, isn't the villain for your good? If you really want to make a fuss, the villain will hit the board a few times at most, but where will the adult's face go? ”

When Shen Ao heard this, he understood it, and he felt funny in his heart, this week, the owner is still a smart person, and he is not afraid to slander Tang Yan; Then I thought, this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, a random flower pot smashed down, and immediately lay down seven or eight officials on the ground, like the squire and Shangshu of various departments, which one is not a provincial and ministerial-level official, and when he is placed outside the capital, he is a person who trembles with trembling feet and ground, and in this capital, I am afraid that it is not as good as the warden in a county.

The grade of this Tang Lord is not low, and the Guozi is also a noble person, but in the eyes of the Bianjing people who are accustomed to seeing Shangshu and Shilang, what is it? The two official words are scared of the grass people at the bottom, like this Zhou Dongjia, who has long thought through Tang Yan's thoughts, Tang Yan, a noble person, the most important thing is face, so he is sure that he will not make a big deal about it, so he has the courage to even hit Tang Yan's idea.

"You...... You ......" Tang Yan immediately ran out of words, he taught people to come from a set, but when he bumped into this kind of market-like character, where could he speak; A few words from you, and you can't say anything after that.

Zhou Dongjia snorted coldly: "Lord Tang, what do you mean?" In fact, it's not the villain who said you, you are a dignified member of the three grades, and you have a real job, you only need to pass it, and the money of 100 or 1,000 is not easy? How easy is it to ask for money, what are you doing with this poverty? Hehe, now you look like this, but you are even struggling to eat, but what are you still doing with your thoughts? These things shouldn't be taught by villains, and villains can't see it, so you better pay for this money quickly! The villain still has a business to do, if he can't come up with the money...... Hehe......" sneered, but it was extremely bold and presumptuous: "Adults are careful that their reputation is not guaranteed!" ”
