Kang Shilin stroked his beard and laughed "hahaha".

"Senior brother, if you think Sun Jiawang is reliable and does not have evil intentions, then help me buy him." Zhao Ruxi said.

She is in need of someone right now. If someone is impressed by her charm and comes to her door, she will naturally not refuse.

After looking at the house, the three masters and apprentices walked out. Wu Zongdao said: "I know a few reliable middlemen. When will you be free? I'll ask them to meet you."

Zhao Ruxi scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed: "I have to go to the academy in the morning and draw in the afternoon, so I am a bit free at noon. Is it convenient for them to come to Beining?"

"Then I'll ask them to come over before noon tomorrow. Let's meet at this house. I'll give you the key to the house now."

After several people left the house, Wu Zong locked the door and handed the key to Zhao Ruxi.

"Thank you, senior brother." Zhao Ruxi said with emotion.

The luckiest thing for her was that she met her master and gave her such a good senior brother.

After returning to the Hou Mansion, after dinner, she was teaching Zhao Jingtai how to draw, when she saw Mr. Zhu coming over with several maids, all holding boxes in their hands; following the maids, there were two unfamiliar women.

.

Zhao Ruxi looked at Mrs. Zhu, looked at the box, and asked, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Zhao Jingtai, who was painting, raised his little fat face and looked over, but was slapped down by Zhao Ruxi: "Draw seriously, don't be distracted."

Mrs. Zhu was very happy to see the scene where the bear son was suppressed by his daughter and did not dare to move.

She first gave her daughter an appreciative look, and then said: "Aren't you going to the banquet tomorrow? I asked the embroiderer in the mansion to make two sets of clothes for you. You can try it. If there is any jewelry, you can make one tomorrow.

You can go to the bank and have a look. I'll give you how much money you need."

Zhao Ruxi had a headache when she heard this: "Mom, can I not go tomorrow?"

She was as busy as a spinning top, and she really didn't have time to go to any banquet.

That kind of banquet was very much looked forward to by the ladies in the capital, but in Zhao Ruxi's eyes, it was really pathetic and boring.

The ladies look forward to it because they can show off their beauty, talent and character like a peacock spreading its wings. But in Zhao Ruxi's view, this kind of behavior is like the goods on the stall. They must be wiped clean first and then put in boxes.

Pack it up and wait for the customer's favor and selection.

If any family fell in love with them, they would evaluate the family to see what kind of family they were and what price they could afford. Finally, after a series of price negotiations and a sale process, they finally got married.

After arriving at her husband's house, for the rest of her long life, she had to live according to her husband's face, take care of the housework for him, have children, take care of and raise his concubines and concubines, and then compete with the concubines for her husband's pitiful care.

.

If the husband's family is not well-off, he has to use his dowry to support the husband and then raise concubines and concubines for him.

In the original novel, Zhao Ruyu was particularly looking forward to and liking this kind of banquet. At the banquet, she highlighted her beauty, temperament, and talent by stepping on the original host, and won the praise of the ladies. In the end, she finally got Ping, who always looks at the sky with her nostrils.

Mrs. Nanhou's pity allowed her to marry her good-for-nothing son Fu Yunlang.

After the deaths of Ping Nanhou and Fu Yunkai, Fu Yunlang finally counterattacked and took over. Because of his status, Zhao Ruyu was often verbally criticized by her mother-in-law and was angry with her. If the author of the original novel hadn't made the male protagonist devoted to her, Wei Qiu would have

He has become her strong support, but she is not sure what will happen to her.

Zhao Ruxi was thinking about all these things when she heard Zhu say: "Princess Zhennan sent a post specifically for you, how dare you say you won't go?"

Zhao Ruxi: "..." She didn't dare.

It's not that Princess Zhennan will be unhappy, but that her mother is glaring at her right now.

The inattentive little fat man next to him could not help but cover his mouth with secret joy when he saw his wise and powerful sister cowering in front of his mother who was about to go crazy.

After entering the house and changing her clothes, she was commented upon by a group of women, and was forced to take out the jewelry box and insert a pearl. Zhao Ruxi's face was filled with despair.

She would rather go to Dali Temple and spend half a day painting portraits than be tormented like this by women.

"Take the skirt back and change it, and the jewelry will be finalized." Ms. Zhu finally nodded with satisfaction.

Zhao Ruxi drew design drawings for Jiebaozhai. Both Xiao Ruotong and shopkeeper Wang of Jiebaozhai were very generous. They gave her one piece of jewelry that was not very valuable, and only sold the valuable ones to her at cost price.

Zhao Ruxi thought that these jewelry were all designed by herself, and she would earn money after buying them. If she needed to give gifts in the future, it would be very cost-effective to put them in boxes and give them away. Therefore, most of the money she earned from drawing jewelry designs

They were all replaced with jewelry.

During this period, she also gave one or two pieces of jewelry to the old lady and Mr. Zhu. The total value of each gift was between three and four hundred taels of silver. Considering the self-esteem of Mrs. Xie and Xu Xue, when she went to the Xu family yesterday, she brought

The jewelry was not very valuable, but it still cost dozens of taels of silver. Because of this, Ms. Xie was still very uneasy.

"Tomorrow is Shen Chu's banquet. After you come out of the academy, go to the painting academy for a walk and then come back. Explain it to your master and the others. They should be able to understand." Zhu explained.

Zhao Ruxi frowned: "Shen Chu went in to drink tea and chat, right? When will the banquet start?"

"Could it be that you still want to go while you're having dinner? Who are we to show off like this? We're afraid that people will say we don't know how to show appreciation." Zhu said with a straight face, "You must come back at that time. Otherwise, I will send a letter to you tomorrow morning.

Your master, please beg him for mercy."

Zhao Ruxi turned around and looked at Mr. Zhu, and said seriously: "I can't do it. This is official business, and the emperor has ordered it. Although this class is not run by Dali Temple, Mr. Kumu is studying, and the emperor also knows it. Dali Temple Zhang

Sir, just wait for my class to end early so that we can start over there."

"How many lives were involved in the painting class held by Dali Temple? If I take leave because of a banquet, what will the Emperor and Mr. Zhang think of me? What will my master and senior brother think of me? This kind of banquet, in your opinion,

It may be a big deal, but in the eyes of the emperor and your lords, it is nothing more than a pastime for the ladies of the house to pass the boring time."

Zhu opened her mouth but could not refute.

This was indeed the case. She felt that receiving an invitation from Zhennan Palace was a huge honor, but in the eyes of the Emperor and Mr. Zhang, what was this?

"Yes, but we can't explain it to Princess Zhennan," she said.

"Just tell her directly. There is nothing going on in the court that Princess Zhennan doesn't know about. She will understand. If I ignore such an important matter as Dali Temple in order to attend the banquet, and let the emperor have opinions about her family,
