A maid happily said: "It's really like, it's so beautiful, it's as if the young lady entered the painting."

  Another servant girl followed up: "Although I'm a little sorry for the lady, I actually think the lady in this painting is more beautiful, especially this smile, which is so beautiful."

  Tang Kun, the head of the Tang family, immediately applauded.

  "Okay! This technique, this style of painting, I have been collecting calligraphy and painting for so many years, little brother Sedum, your calligraphy and painting are definitely of the highest quality. I really didn't expect my granddaughter to be so beautiful. Wonderful, really wonderful."

  The seven aunts and eight aunts on the side also thought they were good-looking.

  They gathered around Sedum and asked him to paint two pictures for himself.

  "Brother Sedum, you also help us draw a pair of..."

  She didn't finish her sentence.

  Tang Xue, who was standing on the stool, couldn't wait any longer.

  She was really curious.

  What has this guy painted himself, why is everyone praising him?

  "I'll give it to me, let me see it."

  She grabbed the drawing paper from Sedum and looked at herself on it, with red eyes and brows, white face and black hair, cherry nose and lips, so beautiful that she even made up for the slight flaws on her face. It doesn't look like her anymore, but look carefully at her demeanor, isn't it herself?

  Tang Xuejian was embarrassed.

  The attitude continued to ease, and the corners of his mouth showed joy for a moment.

  "You didn't say you wanted to draw me after I died, so why did you draw me... so beautiful? But this is the way Miss Ben looks like."

  Sedum stretched out his hand to draw paper, spread it on the drawing board, pointed to the drawing paper and said.

  "I'm here to give you a contrast, you see this is what you look like when you are alive, I will change this painting later, and draw it to look like you will be when you die, you look at your eyes, it's too big, dead man The eyes are all bulging, the mouth is too small, the dead man's tongue must be spit out, the hair must be changed, the eyebrows must be changed..."

  When Tang Xue saw that Sedum was about to change the painting, she stepped forward and grabbed the painting in his hand, holding it in front of him like a baby.

  "No, you don't want to change this painting. What a pity to change such a beautiful painting?"

  Sedum spread out his hands and smiled.

  "You're going to die later, don't you care if I change the painting?"

  Tang Xuejian was originally talking in a daze, but now that she saw such a good-looking herself in the painting, she couldn't bear to be changed by the other party, so she shook her head in denial.

  "I'm not dead, who said I'm going to die today? I'll die another day, but I won't die today. Oops, you're so annoying! What's your name?"

  Seeing that Sedum had achieved his goal, he clasped his hands and smiled: "If you are not talented, your surname is Zhang and your name is Sedum."

  Tang Xuejian ran away holding the painting.

  The head of the Tang family, Tang Kun, came up with a smile, patted his shoulder politely and said with a smile.

  "I didn't expect you to be so talented, little brother Jingtian, and you solved my daughter's case. I really don't know how to thank you."

  "I think it's like this. Let you be the chief shopkeeper of the four stores in your street. It just so happens that the seventh is retired."

  Sedum hugged and thanked.

  In fact, he refused in his heart. Although his position has risen, on the contrary, he has more things to do.

  He also remembered that he was not He Biping, who liked to settle accounts, and let him do it all.

  It seems that his salted fish life can be preserved.

  Tang Tai saw that Sedum had a better image in the hearts of the Tang family, and immediately stepped forward to suggest.

  "It's almost noon now, how about little friend Jingtian stay and have a meal with us? I won and ordered the back kitchen."

  Tang Kun also meant to treat guests just now, and now Tang Tai said it.

  He happened to follow along and said, "Little friend Jingtian, just stay. I have a lot to ask you about the jade pendant around your waist."

  Sedum can't refuse.

  He simply agreed, and he had to eat when he went back anyway.

  It is also good to have a Tangjiabao banquet here.

  (The data of the new book period is very important, thank you all, ask for flowers, ask for data, ask for everything).

Chapter 7

  "Little friend Sedum, can you tell me the origin of your jade pendant?"

  At the dinner table, Tang Kun, the leader of the Tang family, asked the question in his heart.

  Although he also believes in the fate in the dark, if the original owner of this jade pendant is not Sedum, or obtained from illegal means, it is to deceive his precious granddaughter.

  Although it seems that the performance of Sedum is still good.

  But be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, Tang Kun knows that he is old and time is short, and he just wants to make sure again and again.

  Sedum is very comfortable to eat.

  A mouthful of oil.

  I have heard about this family banquet in Tangjiabao for a long time. I only knew it was delicious before, but I didn't expect it to be so delicious.

  Sure enough, money is still a meaningful thing for salted fish.

  While eating, he replied: "My jade pendant fell from the sky on the night of the meteor shower a few days ago. At that time, a red meteor flew directly to me and landed on my hand. If you don't believe me, you can ask me. Two of his followers, Maomao and Biping, were also present at the time."

  Don't wait for Tang Kun to speak, but the housekeeper Tang Tai is already shocked.

  He didn't believe it.

  "You mean, this jade pendant that matches the young lady flew down from the sky? And it's flying towards you?"

  "of course."

  Several seven aunts and eight aunts were also on the side, and when they heard that Jingtian got this jade pendant from the sky, they looked at him even more differently.

  "Hey, it seems that it is really Miss Xuejian's fate. The jade pendant that fell from the sky is not a gift from heaven? When I first saw you, I thought you were different. You really are a talent."

  "Yeah, not only can you speak well, but you are also so good at drawing and painting. I heard that you performed very well in the pawnshop, but you are really a talented person."

  Sedum was a little unbearable to be praised by these two female relatives.

  Knowing the purpose of the two women, he took out two rolls of drawing paper from his arms, each with the portraits of these two aunts and eight aunts, each being a beautified version, which is equivalent to adding functions such as face-lifting, beautifying, and skin resurfacing. The portrait of , although at first glance it is very unlike the original owner, but after a closer look, the demeanor is indeed the seven aunts and eight aunts.

  "Take it, this is what I took time to draw before dinner."

  Seven aunts and eight aunts opened their squinted eyes and hurriedly took the portrait of Sedum.

  When you look at yourself on the drawing paper, you can't look directly at the beauty, it obviously feels very unreal, but the one who draws is themselves.

  How could two middle-aged women deserve such a good gift.

  "Oh, this painting... it's so beautiful, it doesn't look like me, I'm so embarrassed, it's rare for little brother Sedum to be so caring, we just mentioned it, and you remember it."

  "This is five hundred taels of silver, which is my reward to you."

  "I'll also give you five hundred taels, and the housekeeper will give it to you before you go out."

  Seven aunts and eight aunts don't have the heart to eat. After reading their own, they looked at each other's, and they compared each other. They all said that it was not their own. A good painter frames the picture.

  The owner of the house, Mr. Tang Kun, became more satisfied the more he looked at Sedum.

  No fault can be found in him.

  He is handsome, smart, talented, and works calmly. He is the perfect choice for Tangjiabao's successor.

  Although he was satisfied, he didn't say it right away.

  He also wanted to investigate for a while.

  He clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Xuejian, did you hear that, this jade pendant was given to him by God. Why don't you come out for a meal together?"

  Tang Xuejian's complaint came from behind the curtain of the living room.

  "Grandpa, why are you like this! I ignore you."

  Then there was the sound of distant footsteps.

  After dinner.

  Sedum naturally returned to his Yongan Dang.

  But there are two more things in his arms, one is the appointment letter for the chief shopkeeper of the four pawnshops on Yongan Street, and the same is a silver note of one thousand taels.

  With these two things, the life of salted fish can be more nourishing.

  I am delighted.

  Just got back to the pawn shop.

  His master Yu Bo greeted him at the door.

  "You finally came back safely."

  Sedum waved his hand.

  "It wasn't a big deal at first. I still had a meal there. Master, have you eaten?"

  Yu Bo was about to answer.

  Inside the pawnshop, there was a proud scolding from an old man.

  "Xu Maoshan, He Biping, you are optimistic, this is the appointment letter of Yong'an's shopkeeper in my hand, that kid Sedum is probably dead, you two will work under me in the future, if you dare to disobey, I will rattan wait."

  Sedum has a cold face.

  "Yubo, what's going on?"

  Yu Boti took off his glasses and explained: "I also want to tell you that the messenger from Tangjiabao is here, and now the steward Zhao Wenchang has become the shopkeeper. You'd better not mess with him."

  Sedum looked down and thought.

  He was promoted to be the chief shopkeeper, and Yong'an's position was vacant, so now Zhao Wenchang has become the shopkeeper.

  "Yu Bo, what's there to be afraid of, can Zhao Wenchang still eat me?" Yu Bo wanted to persuade again, but it was too late.

  Sedum strode into the back room of the pawnshop.
