Want to hold the king's hand, but the king runs away

Fan Shu smiled sweetly, and handed the things in her hand to Han Mo: "It's not a talented work, please don't laugh at me, two brothers."

The moment Han Mo took the picture scroll, he could see clearly her ocean-like eyes, which were full of his own shadow, with crooked eyebrows and charming smile.

He couldn't help being a little stunned, and grabbed the painting in his hand without any follow-up actions.

Wen Qian had long been accustomed to Han Mo's idiot character, so he took advantage of the time when he was in a daze, snatched the painting over and opened it to look at it.

After he savored it carefully, he praised Fanshu one after another: "I never imagined that Sister Fanshu's kung fu is so powerful. First, I was convinced that I lost because of the nonsense. Now after reading this "Huaihua I am even more admirable for the picture of cooling off the summer heat in the courtyard! Not only is the painting good, but your mind is also extremely high. The sentence 'the innocuous objects move the Zen mind' naturally blends with this painting and complements each other. It is simply wonderful!"

Hearing Wen Qian's praise of the painting, Han Mo immediately came back to his senses and took the painting from Wen Qian's hand.

When he saw the painting, his eyebrows and eyes widened, and he couldn't help but sigh that Fan Shu is such a skilled painter, and he was deeply impressed by her talent.

"Sister Fanshu, it's really impressive. Not only is she tall, but her hands are even more dexterous."

Facing the admiration of the two, Fan Shu lowered her head shyly.

Wen Qian seemed to recall something, and pointed to the painting and asked her: "Last time you left in a hurry, saying you were taking care of your sister. But is that the young boy sitting next to you in this picture?"

Fan Shu nodded and smiled: "The person in this painting is exactly the scene when I get along with my sister. My mother is busy on weekdays, and I often help her take care of her.".

Beautiful, talented, kind-hearted, caring for the family??

Such a woman is hard to find in the world.

Han Mo was stunned and didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, Wen Qian looked left and right for a while, looked at Fan Shu from top to bottom for a few times, then bent his body inexplicably, held his hands, and bowed to Fan Shu.

Seeing his sudden movement, Fan Shu was also shocked.Ask him: "Brother Wen Qian, what does this mean?"

Wen Qian got up with a smile, and said back to her: "To express my admiration for you sincerely."

Fan Shu felt that Wen Qian was frivolous and didn't want to talk to him anymore. She stared at Han Mo wholeheartedly, hoping to communicate with him more.

Han Mo, who practiced martial arts, naturally felt Fanshu's gaze clearly.

His current heart has been hooked in by those fluttering and blinking eyes.

Seeing that Han Mo was the only one in Fan Shu's eyes, Wen Qian felt a little unhappy, so he could only excuse himself and say, "Sister Fan Shu, please take this painting to the garden. The servants of Pingyuan Hou's mansion will start to collect the girl's money later." our belongings. Don't waste the time."

Hearing what he said, Fan Shu couldn't stay any longer, and asked the two of them timidly: "Brothers, I still have a merciless request."

This time Han Mo finally got the upper hand, one step faster than Han Mo, with an excited face: "Sister Fanshu, but it's okay to say."

"Meeting the two older brothers today is really out of courtesy. Please don't mention this matter to others after we leave today, lest..."

Although Fan Shu hadn't finished speaking, both of them understood the meaning of her words, and quickly nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Fan Shu bowed and said goodbye to the two of them. When she was discharged from the hospital, she turned her head with a smile and glanced at Han Mo.

"Did you see her looking back at me just now?" Wen Qian patted Han Mo's chest.

"?"

Don't you look at me?Han Mo didn't want to have these unnecessary arguments with him, so he opened his claws forcefully, and then walked out of the courtyard with his head held high.

After Fan Shu and the two parted, she did not return to the garden the same way, but continued to walk forward in order to find a place that could "destroy corpses and wipe out traces".

Coincidentally, within a few steps, I saw a rockery in front of me, and a meandering clear water pond below.

Fan Shu hurriedly hid in the rockery, took out Jin Shu's scrolls, tore them into pieces, and threw them all into the pond.

Fan Shu never knew how terrifying the smile on her face was when she was tearing up the painting.

Seeing the things sinking to the bottom, Fan Shu lowered her head and looked around for stones.Finally, I found a piece of suitable size, took out my own silk painting and wrapped it on it, and threw it down together.

When everything was settled, Fan Shu's heart was unexpectedly smooth, she straightened her slightly messy bun, and walked back slowly on the way she had come and gone.

Before she got close, Fan Shu saw Hua Shu nestled in her mother's arms, and Xiu Shu next to her frowned.

They were surrounded by three ladies, and their mother was talking to them.

With a casual glance, Yu Shi had already seen Fan Shu in the crowd, and when everyone was not paying attention, she cast a questioning look at her.

Fan Shu understood and tugged on her two sleeves to show that the things had left her body.Seeing this, Yu felt relieved, looked at Hua Shu who was buried in her arms, and said softly to her: "Hua Shu, your sister is back. Since it was an unintentional mistake, please tell her well, I don't think your sister will blame you."

When the ladies heard Mrs. Yu talking about Fanshu's return, they hurriedly began to look around, wanting to see Mrs. Yu's eldest daughter.

Thinking of Yu's being so kind, the eldest daughter she brought up must be something extraordinary.

Now that the younger sister has lost her calligraphy and painting, it is the best time to test the eldest daughter's conduct in the world.

Hua Shu looked at Shi Yu with tears in her eyes, and said to Yu Shi anxiously: "Mother, I really don't know how to tell my sister about this."

"Hua Shu, although you are a woman, your mother has always taught you to be brave. Now is the time for you to take responsibility for your own mistakes, go over and tell your sister bravely." Yu lifted Hua Shu's shoulders, The affection in the eyes is overflowing.

Hua Shu had never seen such a persuasive tone and doting eyes.

At this time, the mother seemed extraordinarily warm.

The lady next to her saw the interaction between mother and daughter, and she was amazed.

Yu turned a deaf ear to other people's compliments, but looked at the dumb girl in front of her with a deeper smile, put her on the ground, and smiled slightly: "Silly girl, are you dumbfounded? Hurry up and find your sister Fanshu."

Faced with her mother's encouragement, Hua Shu no longer shirked, and walked towards Fan Shu in three steps.

Seeing Hua Shu approaching, Fan Shu saw that the tip of her nose and eye sockets were a little red, and knew in her heart that she had cried.

Thinking of his younger sister who was always timid, but today this matter had to fall on her, he didn't know how scared this girl was.A sense of guilt suddenly arose in my heart.

So without waiting for Hua Shu to speak, Fan Shu raised her hand to wipe away the wet tears for her, and asked her softly, "What happened? Why are you crying again?"

Seeing the tenderness and consideration in her sister's eyes, Hua Shu couldn't hold back the pain in her heart any longer, and burst into tears with a "wow" without saying anything.

Seeing this, the wives sitting next to her didn't have any expressions on their faces, but they could tell from a glance at each other that although the Second Miss of the Zhao family was cute, she had nothing else to praise.

Fan Shu knew that all this happened because of herself.Feeling guilty and unbearable, he quickly hugged her, patted her on the back lightly, and coaxed softly: "Hua Shu, what's the matter? You cry, my sister is very troubled."

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Hua Shu took a break, and she didn't even dare to raise her head: "Sister?? I lost the painting of you and Jin Shu. Just now, Mother's hand was scalded by hot water, and Xiu Shu and I When I went to help her, I didn’t notice that the chair on the shelf was pushed down. When we finished our work, we came back and found that the paintings of the two of you were gone.”

After Hua Shu finished speaking, tears fell down again.

The ladies carefully observed the expression on Fan Shu's face, and saw that her complexion was as soft as before, and there was no sign of frowning in displeasure.

Instead of blaming the younger sister for causing such a catastrophe, he comforted her kindly: "Silly girl, just throw it away. It's just a picture. You cry so heartbrokenly that I thought the sky had fallen. Huashu, don't cry. Come with me to see your mother's injuries."

Without waiting for Hua Shu to reply, Fan Shu brought Hua Shu to Yu Shi to greet her, and after paying her respects, she carefully checked her mother's injuries.

Seeing Fanshu's behavior, everyone sighed in their hearts: her smile is like a flower, she is beautiful and kind-hearted, if this girl manages the family in the future, the house will be peaceful.

"Mrs. Zhao is lucky. The three daughters are all very good!"

"This big girl is very considerate, I owe you that."

"It's hard to find such a good temper in the world."

The wives praised Fanshu one after another.

With this praise, Fan Shu blushed, and Yu Shi smiled more amiably.

Hua Shu looked at the wives chatting earnestly with their mother and sister, their eyes were full of love for her sister, and the stone in their hearts was slightly relieved.

She thought in her heart, fortunately, her mother is gentle and virtuous, and her elder sister's derongyan skills are all top-grade, so she can turn the tide and win the favor of the wives in such a bad situation, otherwise she really has to die to apologize!

Because of the panic just now.Hua Shu was really tired, she came to Yu Shi's side, and told: "Mother, sister, you chat first, I want to look around."

Seeing Huashu's behavior, Xiushu immediately followed her and wanted to leave.

Only then did Yu think of the two people who were left alone, and said to them gently: "You guys go, don't run too far. We will have lunch soon."

The two said goodbye to everyone, and then walked away.

When the three wives were chatting passionately with Mrs. Yu, they didn't expect a sharp female voice to suddenly come from the crowd.

"Mrs. Qin, I have been looking for you for a long time, and it turns out that you are hiding here."

The lady on Yu's left immediately looked for her reputation, pointed at the person who came, and said with a smile: "You are so hot, there are so many people here, and you are still so loud!" Although she disliked her, there was a smile Completely, she hurriedly said to the young girl beside her: "Huaxi, you must not be so rude like your mother."

"Hello, Mrs. Qin, hello, ladies." Listening to Mrs. Qin's teasing, Qu Huaxi smiled generously, and hurriedly greeted everyone present.

"Huaxi, come quickly, let me take a good look at you." Mrs. Qin waved to Qu Huaxi, and when someone came over, she stood up and looked around, then pushed Huaxi on the chair and sat down: "Huaxi Girl, she looks more and more juicy."

Mrs. Qu smiled lightly: "Don't praise her. Her bad temper is what you guys are used to. By the way, why are you all sitting here today? Eh, this lady looks so familiar?"

She kept asking and answering questions by herself, without giving anyone a chance to interrupt.

After thinking for a long time, she remembered: "This is Zhao Chi's wife, isn't she? She accompanied Mrs. Kang to entertain us at the Kang Manor banquet last time."

Yu stood up, smiled and saluted: "Madam Qu has a good memory, I never thought that you still remember me."

Mrs. Qu was not polite, and she sat next to them: "It stands to reason that your husband and I are both in the Ministry of Industry, so we should be familiar with each other the most. But I don't want to, your family always goes to banquets less, which makes us two different. gone."

After saying that, he even patted Yu Shi's hand, looking very kind.

Fewer dinners?To put it bluntly, the family is small and the situation is weak, and how many people organize the feast will remember a small official from the sixth rank.

Mrs. Qu turned her head and looked at the three friends next to her: "You rarely talk to strangers on weekdays, why did you suddenly hit it off with Mrs. Zhao today?"

"It's strange to say today?"

The three wives told the mother and daughter of the Qu family what happened just now vividly, and they all praised Yu's gentle temperament and Fan Shu's deep understanding of righteousness.

After hearing the whole story, Mrs. Qu first praised Yu's mother and daughter, but then changed the subject and asked directly: "The Chrysanthemum Banquet is held every year in the Marquis of Pingyuan, and there has never been any loss of performance items. You don't think it's strange ?"

Hearing this, Fan Shu trembled slightly.

Yu Shi quickly stroked her hand, and looked at her with the same expression as before.

When Mrs. Qu asked, the three wives all cheered up and echoed, "It's really strange. The beautiful calligraphy and paintings suddenly disappeared. It's clear that someone took them away on purpose. It's just that Mrs. Zhao is new here, who will play tricks on them?" Such a shameless trick?"

Hearing what they said, Mrs. Qu rolled her eyes: "Mrs. Zhao, did you bring your concubine here today?"

Qu Huaxi instantly understood what her mother meant.In his mind, he thought of Zhao Jinshu who was extremely disrespectful to him at the Kang Manor banquet that day. It is not surprising that that person had the audacity to do such a thing.

Before Mrs. Yu spoke, Mrs. Qin asked first: "Madam Qu, what is the meaning of this? Even if people in the other room have some tricks, but I think she is afraid of doing such a thing under the watchful eyes of everyone."

"Ms. Zhao has always lived in seclusion and has nothing to do with other wives. And you have also seen her gentle temperament today. How can she offend others? But she would rather take the risk and steal under the noses of so many people. There must be resentment in my heart. Since this resentment does not come from the outside, it is naturally from within my own house! Only those bad things from concubine, who care about human kindness all day long, think about how to harm the main house."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Qu thought of her restless aunts.

Those cheap things will make waves and make people annoying if they have nothing to do.

The wives felt that Mrs. Qu's words were reasonable, but when they thought about it carefully, they had a problem: "Then why did she steal her own too?"

Mrs. Qu put down the teacup, her eyes were very firm, as if she had insight into everything, she chuckled.

"This is the smartest part of that person! Wouldn't it be too conspicuous if you only lost one piece? So take the best and your own, so that it will definitely not arouse suspicion."

Huh??

What a deep scheming.

These people believed them completely now, Mrs. Qu grasped their words, and hurriedly asked Mrs Yu: "I just heard what some wives said, but you brought a girl from a concubine here?"

Mrs Yu was a little bit torn, and finally nodded her head resolutely.

Mrs. Qu looked at them triumphantly: "Look, I'm the only one here. With these clues, I know everything!"

"Madam is so smart! She explained all the tricks in one sentence."

Everyone began to praise Mrs. Qu's wisdom, but no one noticed that Fan Shu's face was extremely pale at this time, and even her breathing became a lot faster.

This kind of compliment made Mrs. Qu feel extremely comfortable, she considered herself smart and quick-witted.Don't lose to those elders who work in government offices.

"Mrs. Zhao, is this concubine the one who recognized Kang Judgment as her adoptive father last time?"

Yu didn't answer their questions directly, but could not bear it: "Ladies and gentlemen, I know that you are kind to me. It's just that there is no real evidence, so it's not good to wrong Shu'er like this..."

Shu'er?Could it be that Zhao Jinshu!

Thinking of the little girl who covered her head and smiled innocently, she would be such a person.

Mrs. Qin directly held Yu Shi's hand, and scolded her with heartache: "You have a good temper, and you are still protecting her at this time! Do you know that she is planning to ruin Miss Fanshu's great marriage!"

Seeing the concern in Mrs. Qin's eyes, Yu Shi acted submissive, and said without tears: "She...she has a different status...I can't discipline her."

An expression of pity for me, which made Qu Huaxi next to me unable to sit still.

She stood up angrily: "This Zhao Jinshu really has a bad heart! Last time I kindly helped Huashu at the banquet in Kang's mansion, she directly scolded me because of the favor of Mrs. Kang and Mrs. Han. At that time, I just thought She is unreasonable and arrogant, after hearing what happened today, I realized that she is such an insidious person!"

Mrs. Qu just heard that her daughter was bullied by a concubine, and she was very angry.

But seeing everyone present, in order to protect her identity, she softly reprimanded Qu Huaxi: "When adults talk, children don't want to interrupt."

Hearing that her mother taught her a lesson, Qu Huaxi didn't dare to say any more.

"Then where is Zhao Jinshu? Let's go find her now, maybe we can find some traces." Mrs. Qu's attitude is determined to trouble Jinshu.

Just when everyone was filled with righteous indignation, they didn't expect that the righteous master was already approaching them.

Just now Jinshu and Wanru were busy in the yard of the kitchen, but Mrs. Han came in suddenly. She told Jinshu to put down what she was doing to see the injured Mrs. Zhao, and asked Wanru to go to her room to get a secret plaster for the wound. Yu Shi sent it.

From a distance, she saw Mrs. Yu being surrounded by a group of wives asking questions. Remembering that when she first entered the door, no one paid attention to her. Now that there are several people sitting around so quickly, she has to admire Mrs. Yu for his playfulness. The kung fu is really amazing.

Every time I see Shi Yu, I feel very tired, but I can't help it, I still have to go.

"Big lady, well. Ladies, well."

Jin Shu politely bowed to them, and when she got up, she found that the group of people looked at her with "strange" eyes.

Is this another trick?Jin Shu didn't know.

Yu said with some anxiety: "Shu... Shu'er, where did you go just now?"

She said this as if she didn't know that Han Wanru had called her away!Jin Shu watched her act with a smile in her heart, but she said respectfully on the face; "I was busy just now. Hearing that you were accidentally burned, Shu'er ran back quickly."

Mrs. Qu smiled disdainfully when she heard her vague answer, and then asked her: "Do you know that your house just lost something for performing arts? You are so busy, so busy."

Listening to this man's words, Jin Shu already guessed most of it in her heart.

From the moment Yu asked her to hand over the painting to Hua Shudui, she knew that the painting would not be kept.

However, today she chose to "give away the head" deliberately, so that she can confidently say to Aunt Jin when she goes back: Sigh, don't care about my business.The offensive of the four people on the opposite side is too strong, they can't fight, they can't fight.

Sure enough, it was exactly what I wanted.

Although she knew it in her heart, Jin Shu still pretended to be panicked, and asked Yu Shi: "Miss, what did you lose?"

"You and Fanshu lost everything?"

Jinshu heard that Fanshu's painting was also lost, and the people next to her glared at her for no reason, probably guessing that Mrs. Yu had already blamed herself for this matter.

I have a witness, don't be afraid!

Jin Shu originally wanted to show off her acting skills in front of them, and slap all the nosy wives in the face.

But after thinking about it, what Yu is doing now is nothing more than wanting to ruin his reputation, so that he will be looked down upon by these wives and will not be able to marry a good family.

As far as I am concerned, isn't the more stinky the reputation in the boudoir, the better?

Looking at the current situation, it is impossible to get rid of the Zhao family before the age of 13.But Zhao Chi doesn't want to see him so much, he will definitely find a good husband's house for himself as soon as possible, and then pack it up and send it out of the house, that would be a big loss!

That being the case, why not come along?

Seeing Jin Shu not saying a word for a long time, everyone concluded that she had a ghost in her heart. Mrs. Naqu sneered, "What's wrong with Miss Jin Shu? Are you guilty?"

Jin Shu raised her eyes viciously, and also sneered back: "This lady's words are really funny. What is a guilty conscience? Are you suspecting that I stole the painting? There is no real evidence, so don't speak nonsense here!"

When she said this, she spoke very fast, raised her eyebrows, and looked sharply at Mrs. Qu, obviously a little aggressive.

Everyone never expected that Zhao Jinshu would treat Mrs. Qu with such an attitude. How could such a rude person be the son of an official family?Even the most humble servant in his family would never treat others like this.

Seeing Jinshu neglecting her mother so much, Qu Huaxi clenched her fists, wishing she could rush up and teach her a lesson.

And Mrs. Qu, the main protagonist, was furious. She has always been the most prestigious among the wives of the official family. How could she have been angered like this, and the one who angered her was a humble concubine.

Mrs. Qu slapped the table on the spot and scolded: "How dare you speak to me like that? If you don't give me an explanation today, I will never forgive you!"

Jin Shu immediately turned back: "The lady wronged me for taking my sister's calligraphy and painting, can you give me an explanation?"

Oh, still a child.

Seeing Jinshu arguing with Mrs. Qu without knowing how to advance or retreat, Mrs. Yu felt so relieved.

However, his face was still heartbroken, and he persuaded Jinshu with a pleading voice: "Shu'er, have you forgotten all the etiquette that mother taught you? How could you speak to Mrs. Qu like this! Hurry up and admit your mistake!"

Jinshu raised her head and looked at Mrs. Qu stubbornly: "Why should I admit my mistake! Mrs. Qu said that I stole my sister's painting without evidence! She is trying to ruin my reputation in front of all the ladies. , how will I marry in the future?"

Jin Shu pretended to be a slip of the tongue, and then covered her mouth.

"Marry into a good family?" Mrs. Qu made up her own mind about the latter words.

After sneering, he pointed at Jin Shu's nose and scolded: "You are a girl who has never been out of the court, do you still feel ashamed to say such things? Besides, the Chrysanthemum Banquet is a day for officials, wives and girls from all families to meet friends through literature. Only you This kind of despicable concubine's daughter wants to use this opportunity to get into Madam's eyes."

Because Mrs. Qu's voice was so loud, there were more and more wives and girls onlookers.

These people didn't even know what happened, but after listening to Mrs. Qu scolding the girl, they knew that the concubine was playing tricks again.

Most people looked at Jin Shu with malice.

Seeing that there were more and more people, and the effect of the play was getting better and better, Jinshu looked determined, cried and howled to Mrs. Qu: "Mrs. Qu, you bullied me in front of all the ladies today. I can't argue with my mouth, of course, I just want to tell you that I didn't steal the painting, if you don't believe me, I'll jump into this lake to prove my innocence!"

Good one, cry, make trouble and hang himself!
