The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 219 Angrily Hitting He Zhiyan, Going to the Wang Family to Ask for Paintings (4)
"Looking for our Seventh Young Master?" The concierge weighed the money in his hand, looked at An Ran, and finally threw the money back to An Qi, sarcastically saying, "There are too many people who want to see our Seventh Young Master. With your background, you are not worthy to carry the shoes of the seventh young master of our family, I advise you not to think about it. Go, go, or we will drive him away."

An Ran was angry and impatient, and wanted to scold these porters for looking down on people. Compared with the Wang family, they are indeed very low. "Hey!" An Ran sighed, "I don't know if I can meet someone I know well, or even send us a letter!" Up to now, An Ran has seen the grandeur of the aristocratic family.It's just a side door, and there are twelve gatekeepers and eight guards guarding it.

Seeing that An Ran and the others hadn't left, several guards came over to drive them away.

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other helplessly, then turned and walked towards the carriage.Just then, another group of carriages arrived.Looking at the seven or eight carriages in this row, and more than 20 guards who want to hang swords on horseback, one can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people.

The two brothers and sisters asked Pingan to drive the carriage aside to make room, and looked at the group of people hesitantly.

Although An Ran and the others had already moved out of the way in time, it was unavoidable that they blocked him for a while.Seeing that the other party's carriage stopped, An Ran immediately gave her brother a wink, and An Qi stepped forward and bowed, saying, "The nobleman in the carriage is being polite. Zhao Zixian, a student of the Imperial College, has urgent matters to see the seventh young master Wang Jinwen, and I hope that the nobleman can help you." Send a letter to me, my brothers and sisters are very grateful."

An Qi is just a dead horse as a living horse doctor, so let's give it a try.Unexpectedly, the curtain of the second carriage was pulled open, and a beautiful young woman in her twenties showed her head.She looked An Qi up and down, and asked: "I don't know why Mr. Zhao is in a hurry to find my seventh brother?"

So it turned out to be Wang Jinwen's sister?That's good luck.An Qi hesitated for a moment, and replied: "A year ago, the seventh young master took something from me and said that he would give it to the old lady as a congratulatory gift. At that time, I accidentally took something wrong, so I asked the seventh young master to give it back."

After hearing that, the young woman couldn't help frowning slightly.She knows her brother's character, and she should be very cautious when giving things to her grandmother, how could she take the wrong one?

"I wonder if Mr. Zhao can speak bluntly, what exactly did my seventh brother take wrongly?"

An Qi looked back at his sister, and said softly, "It's a painting. As long as Madam mentions it a little bit, Young Master Seven will naturally know which one he took by mistake."

The young woman remembered that the seventh brother had said before that he was sure to get the painting of flowers and birds by Yunmeng to celebrate his grandmother's birthday, but now that An Qi said it was a painting, she believed it for the most part.So he nodded and said: "You go in with me! I'll let someone lead you to see him later."

An Qi was overjoyed, bowed and said: "Thank you Madam!"

So, with this aunt leading them, An Ran's carriage followed into the side door, and didn't stop until outside the second door.

It was only after entering the Wang family that Anran knew how deep the background of the so-called gentry family was.They walked for half an hour before arriving at Wang Jinwen's yard.Along the way, there are countless carved beams and painted buildings, small bridges and flowing water, winding corridors, rockery and stone screens, which divide the compound into countless small courtyards, each of which looks deep and exquisite.The servants who came and went were dressed in uniform, and they hurriedly shuttled through the corridor garden in groups.

Wang Jinwen was brought up by his grandfather and grandmother, and lived in a yard adjacent to the old man and old lady when he was an adult.The aunt ordered them to be sent to Wang Jinwen's yard, and left after explaining.

An Qi reported the name of Chang Hai who was with Wang Jinwen, and he was notified soon.When Chang Hai came out, he was also very surprised to see An Qi, but he followed his young master to Zhao's house several times, knowing that this young master Zhao was valued by his young master, so he warmly arranged for them to wait in the living room for the time being. , he immediately rushed to inform his son.

But on the old lady's side, Wang Jinwen happened to be giving a gift to the old lady, and the old man was sitting beside her.He asked the girl serving in the room to go out, then opened the wooden box containing the paintings, took out the paintings inside and said to his grandmother: "Grandma, look at the gift grandson prepared for you!"

The old lady couldn't help laughing when she saw him talking, "Is it a painting? Last time I said I liked the painting of flowers and birds by Master Yunmeng. Did you go and buy one at a high price?"

Wang Jinwen smiled and said nothing, took out the framed scroll from the box and slowly unfolded it on the kang table.

The two old men narrowed their eyes and looked carefully for a long while before raising their heads.

The old lady praised: "Sure enough! Look at the peacock's feathers, it's so realistic, and the peony, it looks like the real thing. The color changes from light to thick, and the transition is natural. The flower shape is unique. Look at it. I am happy again... Sigh, I don’t know how that Taoist drew it.”

Hearing this, the smile on Wang Jinwen's face froze slightly.Yes, the painting is so realistic, if the painter has never seen peacocks and peonies, is it possible?However, there should be no peacocks in Luzhou, right?The Zhao family's family background is not very good either. Who did she learn this painting skill from?

"Grandma, if you like it, you can let her draw for you in the future!" Wang Jinwen came back to his senses, and slowly began to test the old man's attitude.

At this time, a girl from outside the warm pavilion reported: "Reporting to the old man and the old lady, Grandma Wugu is back."

Upon hearing this, the old lady hurriedly said, "Come in, please!"

Not long after, Wugu's grandmother, Wang Jingyuan, came in with the support of the girl. It was the same lady who brought the An Ran brothers and sisters into the mansion earlier.

I saw her kneeling on the futon on the ground with a happy face and praying: "Jingyuan pays respects to grandparents! May grandparents live in good health."

The old lady hurriedly said: "Get up, get up quickly."

Only then did Wang Jingyuan stand up with the help of the girl, sat next to the old lady, and asked, "How is grandpa and grandma doing recently? How is your appetite?"

The old lady nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, okay! Last night when your seventh brother came back, grandma ate half a bowl of rice too!"

Wang Jingyuan nodded with a smile and said: "Seventh brother should come back to visit his grandparents often when he is free." Having said that, Wang Jingyuan glanced and saw the paintings on the kang table that had not been put away.She took a closer look, and couldn't help but her eyes lit up: "Hey, it really is the flower and bird painting of Master Yunmeng? Seventh brother, you are really kind to yourself, and get one for sister sometime."
