"That painting was originally painted by the girl to Granny Zhong." Xi'er said.

Chang Suian was stunned: "According to this, that painting is really painted by Ning Ning?" ”

Xi'er nodded.

Although Chang Kuo thought about this possibility, he also looked at his daughter in surprise at this time: "That is the case...... That is in the Dengtai Tower, why no one can see it? ”

"Because I am good at two kinds of handwriting, but I have never spoken to anyone before." Chang Suining had no choice but to say: "My handwriting of the eldest princess Chongyue is true, and the painting in the building is like the style of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess——"

He added: "In addition, the painting they found is an old work from last year, although it is only half a year apart, but in this half a year, I have experienced a lot, and I have forgotten many things in the past, and my heart has changed, and the work of the pen is not the same as that of the same day." And because he deliberately approached the wind of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess when he was painting, he was able to hide from the sky and cross the sea. ”

On this, Chang Kuo is still relatively easy to fool, he doesn't know anything about the art of calligraphy and painting, and at this time, listening to Chang Suining's explanation, he nodded suddenly.

He breathed a sigh of relief happily: "Fortunately, Ning Ning has this previously unknown ability, otherwise it would really be impossible to explain today." ”

After a pause, he looked at his daughter again and said, "It can be regarded as the blessing of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in the spirit of heaven." ”

Chang Suining: "...... I think it's exactly. ”

She didn't dwell on the topic of self-blessing, but asked, "But...... Who is that Granny Zhong? ”

It's obvious that her brain is broken, and she never has a burden when she uses this advantage.

Xi'er replied: "Granny Zhong is the housekeeper in the girl's courtyard before, she watched the girl grow up, and she took care of the girl's daily life in the past, and the girl has been very close to her since she was a child. ”

Chang Sui is calm.

There is no hostess in the Chang family, so it is reasonable to think that there should be an older personal mother-in-law to take care of Ah Li.

She asked, "Then where is this Granny Zhong now?" ”

"Granny Zhong passed away last winter."

Xi'er's tone was a little sad, and she carefully watched her girl's reaction, for fear that the sad thing would be aroused, but at this time she had to continue-

"Granny Zhong has been ill for a long time, and last year she offered to go to Zhuangzi outside the city to recuperate, just because she didn't want the girl to look sad...... The girl later followed her to Zhuangzi, and the white steward and Lang Jun invited the best Lang Zhong in the city to stay around Granny Zhong, but they were still ......"

"Before Granny Zhong died, she said that she wanted to be buried in her hometown in Bingzhou after she died, so after Granny Zhong left, her son helped the coffin back to his hometown——"

"Before sealing the coffin, the girl personally put some of Granny Zhong's usual things into the coffin, and that painting was painted by the girl for Granny Zhong's burial."

Chang Kuo twisted his eyebrows: "Then it should be in the tomb of the Zhong family...... Why does it appear in Jingshi? ”

"I see!" Chang Sui said firmly: "It must be a good thing that Wu Lin did!" ”

"Wu Lin?" Chang Sui Ning thought for a moment: "Granny Zhong's son? ”

Chang Suian nodded: "That's right, it turns out that Ning Ning still remembers him!" ”

Chang Suining: "......"

It's impossible to remember, combined with Xi'er's words, it's just a casual guess.

Xi'er took over and said: "This Wu Lin used to be cheating and treacherous when he was doing things in the house, and he relied on the importance of Granny Zhong to get the girl, and often acted as a prestige in the world...... If it weren't for Granny Zhong's control, I don't know what it would look like. ”

"Before she died, Granny Zhong proposed that she wanted to redeem Wu Lin and let him return to her hometown, probably because she was afraid that he would cause any trouble after her death."

Chang Kuo also said "um" and said, "This Zhong is a smart person, but her son really can't support the wall." ”

Seeing that his daughter valued the Zhong family, he also thought about letting the white steward cultivate Wu Lin, but that kid was not a piece of material.

"Wu Lin's deed was returned by me to the white steward, and he did not receive any money to redeem his body, and he gave him another sum of silver according to his sister's wishes, plus Granny Zhong's previous savings, even if he returned to the countryside of Bingzhou, he would be able to worry about food and clothing!" Chang Suian said disdainfully: "How can I even open my aunt's coffin!" ”

Open the coffin to take the burial things, this matter cannot be done by outsiders!

"Aside from cheating and cheating, does he have any vices?" Chang Suining asked: "For example, gambling money?" ”

"He doesn't gamble, but he ......" Chang Sui'an paused halfway through his words, and his face suddenly turned red.

Chang Sui let out an "oh" calmly: "That's indeed a silver-consuming preference, I'm afraid the things in the coffin have already been taken by him." ”

Chang Suian's face was a little inexplicably panicked...... Sister, this understands?!

Chang Kuo coughed lightly, and said, "Someone should have deliberately gone to Bingzhou to find him, and went to inquire about Ning Ning's private affairs——"

Chang Suining asked Xi'er: "Does he know about my dealings with Zhou Ding?" ”

Xi'er nodded, and her face was not very good-looking: "Once Granny Zhong told her maid to be more careful, don't let the girl be deceived by that week...... When the servant left, he was seen sneaking behind the wall, as if eavesdropping. ”

"That's him!" Chang Kuo slapped the coffee table: "This is something that sees money!" ”

As he spoke, he called out to the white steward to step forward: "...... Let people secretly go to the state to get people, even if Wu Lin gets into the mouse hole, he will dig three feet into the ground and arrest people back! ”

The white steward should be in charge.

"It doesn't sound like a smart man, and I don't think I can ask any useful clues from him." Chang Sui Ning said: "But such a person who does not know whether he is alive or dead, he should find out as soon as possible——"

Otherwise, I don't know how much of the main family's affairs will be leaked.

Chang Suian couldn't help but say: "This kind of person is a scourge wherever he goes, and he shouldn't have been let go back to his hometown in the first place!" ”

Chang Suining also agrees with this sentence, but it is meaningless to say these things at this time: "Just have a long memory." ”

Chang Kuo asked, "Tonight's matter of the Xie family...... Rather be a person who doubts? ”

Chang Suining nodded and said bluntly: "Duchess Yingguo Chang." ”

Chang Kuo didn't see any surprise when he heard this, and obviously had already guessed, so he only said in a deep voice: "This is to seek revenge for her son." ”

Although he was angry, his mind was still clear: "It's just that this matter is not her own hand, then the Xie clan will not be able to confess her, if you can't get direct evidence from Wu Lin...... I'm afraid I won't be able to move her for the time being. ”

Chang Suining took the warm tea handed by Xi'er and said casually: "Just sort out this matter first, don't worry about the rest." ”

Seeing the girl calmly going to drink tea, Chang Kuo was silent for a while, but asked, "I'd rather think Daddy is useless?" ”

Chang Suining raised his eyes to look at him: "Why did Daddy say this?" ”

Chang Kuo's tone was a little sullen: "My daughter was bullied, I knew who did it, but I couldn't call the door to vent my daughter's anger......"

"If this is useless, but isn't the Ying Guo Mansion Ming family even more useless?" Chang Suining said with some amusement: "I beat Ming Jin, didn't they also dare to hit the door to vent their anger, so they could only do something behind their backs?" And this hand and foot are smashed, according to this, they should be the ones who are more breathless. ”

Chang Suining put down the teacup and said with a smile: "As a saint, the mother clan is still so restrained, Daddy has no evidence in hand, and he can't knock on the door at will, but it's not cold." ”

"On the contrary, if they can be so restrained and dare not touch me in the open, isn't it because of Daddy's identity and prestige? If it weren't for Daddy's presence, how could I have been so easy to fight when I was Mingjin? ”

Hearing her say this, Chang Kuo couldn't help but shake his head and smile, and he was a little relieved in his heart.

He is not such a brainless person, nor is he the first day to fall into the whirlpool of the powerful and powerful in Beijing, and he understands that not everything can be done as he wants - but even the most capable parents on weekdays will always feel frustrated when they see their children being wronged, if they can't get justice back immediately.

Parents always think that they should be omnipotent in front of their children.

Chang Suining empathizes with this mood.

Although she has never been a parent, she can't see anyone around her being bullied—this may be the original intention when she first put on Ah Xiao's robe when she was a child.

"But Ning Ning rest assured, this account, Daddy will find a chance to get it back for you sooner or later!" Chang Kuo assured.

Chang Sui Ning felt that he had not suffered a loss tonight, and although the Chang clan did not rise and failed to hold it, the Xie clan who was bouncing in front of him could not escape.

The weight of this matter is only a small fight compared to her, but she is a person, whether it is a big feud or a small account, she likes to calculate it clearly. If you have revenge and don't get rid of it, you won't be able to eat well, and you have to grind your teeth and worry about it in your dreams.

And what she is most worried about now is which one she bought jade chips to poison her in her previous life-

Thinking of this, Chang Suining said: "In addition to this matter, I have another matter that I want to discuss with Daddy. ”

Chang Kuo sounded quite unpleasant: "What to discuss!" ”

The feeling of not being able to give the child out of anger right away is really painful, and he now hates that his daughter can't make a hundred requests to him immediately!

Therefore, this is not called making a request, this is called offering filial piety!

"I want to borrow a few people from Daddy to use, I need good skills, and I don't often show up in front of people." Chang Suining made up a reason nearby: "With them secretly following, it is better to beware of the Ming family." ”

After Chang Kuo was stunned for a moment, he smiled very comfortably: "This proposal is good!" Daddy approves! ”

As he spoke, he shouted to the white steward: "Lao Bai, bring everyone over!" ”

Chang Suining: "? ”

Got all the candidates?

Chang Kuo smiled but did not speak.

He admits that he was prepared.

Not to mention anything else, just with his daughter's preference to do more with others, can he not think of adding a few more people as a father?

The white steward soon led a group of people in strong suits, a group of ten people, and at a glance they knew that they were well-trained.

Chang Kuo looked at them: "From today on, you will be responsible for the safety of the girl, and if the girl has any orders, you don't need to ask others, just do it wholeheartedly." ”

Ten people should go down together and salute Chang Suining.

The leader of the humanitarian: "The subordinate is called Chang Blade, but the girl has orders, just send them." ”

Chang Suining: ...... Good sharp name.

She nodded: "In the future, I will have to work for you." ”

After letting Chang Jian and the others retreat, Chang Kuo talked to his daughter for a while, and then took a pair of children out of the study.

"How does Ning Ning plan to settle the two little beggars he brought back today?" Chang Kuo asked casually.

"I want to keep them in the house for a while, and look at the qualifications and character of the two, and then make arrangements, what does Daddy think?"

Chang Kuo nodded: "Okay, then I'll leave it to Chu Xing, practice first." ”

It doesn't matter if it's a black cat or a white cat, a mule or a horse, after entering the house, let's practice first.

Chang Suining nodded in agreement.

Staying fit is the first priority.

"Daddy." She suddenly shouted.

Chang Kuo turned his head to look at his daughter walking beside him, and smiled kindly: "What's wrong?" ”

Chang Sui Ning also turned his face to look at him, with a serious smile in his eyes: "Thank you, Daddy." ”

Whether it is today's events or the past, whether it is Li Shang, or A Li, or Chang Suining at this time, she should thank Lao Chang.

Lao Chang seems to be rough and reckless, but in fact he is soft and delicate.

He's a good subordinate and a good daddy.

Chang Kuo smiled and tapped her head: "What kind of thanks to Daddy, what stupid things to say!" ”

Chang Sui Ning looked up at him and smiled: "In the future, I will honor Daddy well." ”

She was ready to provide for Lao Chang in the past, after all, Lao Chang had threatened not to marry a daughter-in-law, and marrying a daughter-in-law would be in trouble.

But in a blink of an eye, he came back with a calf cub......

Chang Kuo laughed when he heard the words at this time, and said very happily: "Okay! Not to mention anything else, we can support Daddy just by selling paintings! ”

"My sister's painting can be sold for four thousand taels!" Chang Suian made a rough calculation, only to be shocked: "It's not a matter of how many dads you can feed!" ”

Chang Suining nodded modestly either.

Although there is an element of robbery for 4,000 taels, it is feasible to really use it to support the family.

If one day is really unlucky, then sell calligraphy and paintings, raise Daddy, that kind of life should be good.

She smiled and looked at the horizon ahead, the summer nights were short, and it would soon be dawn.

A lot happened that night, and it seemed like a very short night, and many people did not close their eyes.

In the Ying Guo Mansion, I slept and dreamed that Chang Sui Ning was taught a hard lesson, and Ming Jin, who woke up with a smile from the dream, asked about the matter of Dengtai Tower, and heard that Chang Sui Ning was not only unscathed, but also in the limelight, so annoyed that he scolded and scolded, and smashed a room of things with a black face.

The Duchess of Yingguo, Chang, was sitting in a chair at this time, and a man and a woman kneeling in front of her, both dressed as subordinates.

The man knocked his head down and said in a trembling voice, "...... The man claimed to have seen the painting made by the lady of the Chang family with his own eyes, and the cause and effect could not be more true, but who knew that he actually coaxed the villain! ”

The man's face repeated: "This person is full of lies and is really hateful, please allow the villain to go to the ...... state"

Before he finished speaking, he provoked a sneer from the Chang family: "Ridiculous, do you want to leave you to join the state and throw yourself into the net?" ”

The man's face changed: "Madame......"

Chang's face was extremely cold: "Take it all down." ”

"Madame!"

"Madame, spare your life!"

As the man was dragged down, the pleas for mercy quickly faded away.

After a moment of silence in the room, the mother-in-law beside Chang's side asked in a low voice, "Madam, Mrs. Xie's side...... Do you want a servant to send someone to go? ”

"Go and do it." Chang closed his eyes and pressed his tired eyebrows: "What to say and what not to say, do you still need me to remind her." ”

"Yes." The mother-in-law pondered: "From this point of view, this lady of the Chang family is not a reckless person who can only do it......"

Chang sneered: "Yes, but I despise her." ”

She had already listened to the details of what happened in the Dengtai Building, and after thinking about it, she could see that the reason why this matter did not go well was not only in the painting, but also in the Chang Niang.

"It's not a fuel-efficient lamp." Her voice was slow and cold: "It seems that I will have to think about it again next time." ”
