After saying that, she introduced to Zhao Ruxi: "This is Mrs. Zhongqin Bo."

As soon as Zhao Ruxi heard the words Zhongqinbo, the polite smile on her face faded, and her eyes towards Mrs. Zhongqinbo became extremely cold.

The prince Zhongqin was the dandy whom the original owner married in the book, the one who was as good as Long Yang. After the original owner got married, he was not only tortured by his husband, but also ridiculed by others when he went out. Mrs. Zhongqin in front of her also often rubbed her

Grind her.

Later, the house of the Marquis of Suiping was confiscated. The lady took advantage of the fact that the original owner had no support from her natal family and appropriated the original owner's dowry, which was not rich but could still support her. She directly asked her son to write a letter of divorce and transferred her penniless

The original owner was kicked out and left to die of cold and hunger.

Although this is a novel, the old lady, Zhu, Zhao Ruyu, etc. described in the novel are all living in front of him, with flesh and blood. Zhao Ruxi can't treat the original person as a paper person now. Thinking about the loyal uncle in front of him.

The madam and her son, who was a good friend of Longyang, owed their lives to the original owner, so Zhao Ruxi could not treat her well. If there was a chance in the future, she would definitely seek justice for the original owner.

When Mrs. Zhongqin heard that Zhao Ruxi was a girl from the Suiping residence, her face became cold. But after hearing the second half of the sentence, a smile appeared on her face again, and she said affectionately: "It turns out to be Mr. Kumu's."

My dear disciple, Miss Zhao. In the next few days, we will hold a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet at our house. I will send a message to Miss Zhao at that time and invite Miss Zhao to enjoy the chrysanthemums with your old lady and madam."

"No." Zhao Ruxi said calmly, "Thank you madam for your kindness. It's just that I'm busy with work and I'm afraid I don't have time. I won't be able to attend the banquet held by your house. I'm sorry."

Although Uncle Zhongqin and Uncle Suiping are both mansions, Uncle Zhongqin is still a fourth-grade military general. Madam Zhongqin looks down on the people of Uncle Suiping in her heart. It is just because Zhao Ruxi is Kang Shilin's disciple,

Only two favors were given. How could she have thought that Zhao Ruxi would directly refuse her invitation?

When Xiaoru saw this, he broke into a cold sweat and quickly said before Mrs. Zhongqinbo could speak: "My princess is waiting for Miss Zhao. I will lead her over first. You will have a chance to talk later."

After saying that, she pulled Zhao Ruxi and left. Qing Feng quickly followed.

"You, you..." Mrs. Zhongqinbo pointed at the backs of the three of them, trembling with anger.

"Pfft." Someone nearby saw this scene and couldn't help laughing.

Mrs. Zhongqin suddenly turned around and saw that the one covering her mouth and smiling was the wife of Mr. Peng, who was serving as a wine drinker at the Imperial Academy. She knew that this was not something she could do, so she had to give them a fierce look, turned around and helped the little maid to leave.

.

Mrs. Peng patted Zhao Ruyu's hand and said with a smile: "That person just now was your biological sister? She's quite powerful."

Zhao Ruyu smiled awkwardly: "I heard from my mother that my sister is very sensible and knows how to advance and retreat. Mrs. Zhongqin must have done something just now to make her look down on her, so she behaved like this."

"No need to explain," Mrs. Peng said, "I know better than you what kind of virtue that lady has. The fault just now is definitely not your sister's."

At this time, Zhao Ruxi had followed Xiao Ru to Princess Zhennan.

Princess Zhennan sat in the hall with the old princess. Also present were Princess Shangde and several ladies.

The old lady of Suiping House and Mrs. Zhu are not here.

Seeing Zhao Ruxi coming, Princess Zhennan smiled jokingly and said to Princess Shangde: "Your student is here."

After saying that, she stood up and personally introduced the old princess to Zhao Ruxi.

Zhao Ruxi bowed to the old princess with dignity and gave her her own gift: a small jade sculpture of Guanyin.

It was designed by herself and carved by a craftsman named Jie Baozhai.

She heard Xiao Ruotong mention that the old princess had the habit of eating fast and chanting Buddha's name. She thought she believed in Buddhism, so she gave her such a gift.

Originally, Zhao Ruxi was a girl from the Suiping residence. Since she was attending the banquet with her grandmother and mother, she did not need to prepare a separate gift.

But she didn't come with her grandmother and mother, but came alone. It would be bad if she didn't give her a gift. Anyway, Xiao Ruotong was very kind to her. This Guanyin statue was of average jade quality and not worth much. It was just a thoughtful gift.

The reputation of their Suiping residence has long been in decline. If she gave her something of great value, it would be a thankless task and would sound like flattery. It would be more appropriate to give her something that was not very valuable but showed her sincerity.

When the old princess saw it, she liked it very much. She looked at the jade carving for a long time, then looked at Zhao Ruxi and said with a smile: "This Guanyin image is full of mercy. It is different from the Guanyin images I have seen. I don't know if it came from that person."

Hands of a famous artist?”

"It's Master Chen from Jie Baozhai." Zhao Ruxi said.

Princess Zhennan laughed.

She asked Zhao Ruxi: "Xiao Xi must have drawn the picture and asked the craftsmen to carve it, right?"

Zhao Ruxi nodded.

Only then did the old princess suddenly realize.

She said that based on the lifelike appearance of the Guanyin statue, it should have been made by a famous artist. But why did famous artists use ordinary jade instead of fine mutton-fat jade when carving Buddha statues? So that's what happened.

Princess Zhennan said to the old princess: "Mother, don't you know? Not only did this child create a painting method, but the emperor ordered all the painting officials in the Jin Dynasty to learn from her so that they could hunt down fugitives.

Mr. Kumu was interested in accepting her as a closed disciple. She also drew many pictures of jewelry for Jiebaozhai. The jewelry that Sister Tong used to show your filial piety a few days ago were all made by her."

"Oh?" The old princess looked at Zhao Ruxi in surprise.

She knew that Jiebaozhai was a silver building run by Xiao Ruotong. Her granddaughter cared about nothing but calligraphy and knew nothing about it. But she didn't expect that the business of a silver building built on a whim was booming, and there were many in the capital.

All the noble ladies knew this and took a carriage to Bac Ninh to buy it.

At that time, her daughter-in-law told her that the reason for the good business of Jiebaozhai was not because Sister Tong was good at business, but because they hired a girl who was very good at drawing jewelry pictures, and the jewelry she made was more novel than other silver shops.

She never expected that the girl her daughter-in-law was talking about was the little girl in front of her who looked to be only fourteen or five years old.

She is very good-looking and gave her a statue of Guanyin with a benevolent appearance.

A person like the old princess has enjoyed all the glory and wealth in her life, and her status is noble. The queen mother, empress, concubines and other people with higher status than her in the palace cannot get out, and no one outside can look at her.

There are only a few, so I don’t have much scruples about what I say and do.
