Exquisite ingenuity

Chapter 202 Untitled
Zhao Jinqing?
Wasn't she well arrested some time ago?What can happen?

Yaqing continued: "It is said that when she woke up in the morning, the fifth girl suddenly convulsed, talking nonsense, and ran around in the yard, claiming that she dreamed of the old lady's soul."

The soul of the old girl is their aunt Zhao Chengjiao who died young.In their generation, no one had ever seen their aunt Zhao Chengjiao except for the elder brother who could barely walk.Zhao Jinqing babbled nonsense, saying that seeing her aunt would be a hell of a thing.Either she was pretending to be crazy or stupid, or someone was playing tricks behind her back.Is it the third uncle Zhao Chenghuan?But he has been under strict guard all the time, and it is impossible to tell Zhao Jinqing about his aunt.

Zhao Jinyi frowned: "And then?"

"I was detained by the third wife." Ya Qing paused, "Before the maidservant came back, she saw that Manager Hu personally came to lead the fifth girl to the Tai'an courtyard."

What a coincidence.My grandfather was recovering from a serious illness and wanted to see my aunt's portrait, but my aunt's portrait was stolen.Today, Zhao Jinqing suddenly made such a noise, which naturally attracted his grandfather's attention.

Zhao Jinyi unhurriedly leaned halfway on the table: "Wait for the news, so as not to change."

"Yes." It was raining heavily, and when Ya Qing came back, the rain wet her shoulders, she withdrew again, and went back to her side room to change clothes.

It was raining heavily outside, while Zhao Jinyi was worried about his second sister, he wanted Changchun to send a message to Song Jingxing, asking him to come and visit his grandfather.

Now that her grandfather is awake, she will conceive in November, if there are no accidents, the date of her marriage to Song Jingxing will be fixed.

Just as Zhao Jinyi was thinking, someone came in the rain.

It was Manager Hu who came to invite her to Tai'an Courtyard.

It was raining heavily, and Manager Hu asked someone to bring a small sedan chair over, while he himself was wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat.

Ya Qing just changed her clothes, and hurriedly got into the sedan chair with Mei Ran protecting Zhao Jinyi.It was raining heavily, so Mei Ran temporarily pulled out a thin cloak for the girl, and put it on tightly.

The raindrops continued to hit the roof of the sedan chair, making a droning sound.

Sitting in the rickety sedan chair, Zhao Jinyi thought carefully about what happened to Zhao Jinqing.The rain was too loud, and everyone was busy on their way. Zhao Jinyi glanced at Steward Hu who was in front of him, but he didn't ask.Since last night, she always had a vague feeling that Manager Hu obviously saved a lot of things, but he didn't tell her.Is it a sign from my grandfather?Or did Manager Hu mean it himself?
The Tai'an courtyard was lit and incense was burning. When Zhao Jinyi entered, Zhao Jinqing was sitting on the embroidered pier, with her head slightly lowered, without speaking.

Grandfather Zhao Qing did not sit down, but stood in front of the long desk, holding a pen in his hand, frowning as if thinking about something.

Seeing Zhao Jinyi coming in, he was not as enthusiastic and pampering as before, but asked her: "Has your aunt entrusted you with dreams?"

How can people who have never met or lived together give themselves dreams?
Zhao Jinyi shook his head: "Grandfather, no."

Zhao Qing sighed softly, and looked at Zhao Jinqing: "Fifth girl, tell your fourth sister what your aunt looks like."

Zhao Jinqing bit her lip, glanced at Zhao Jinyi, and said in a voice that sounded like she was about to cry: "Grandfather, granddaughter doesn't dare. Fourth sister always likes to bully granddaughter. She will definitely say that granddaughter is talking nonsense."

Zhao Jinyi lowered his eyes.Zhao Jinqing was not so smart before, and she insinuated in one sentence, who is the person behind her back?
Sure enough, Zhao Qing was a little angry: "With grandfather here, why would Fourth Sister Ni bully you?"

He glanced at Zhao Jinyi sternly: "Si girl, but this?"

Zhao Jinyi stood the whole time, but Zhao Qing didn't tell her to sit down, nor did he care if she got wet when she came over.At this time, in my grandfather's heart, it was all the dead aunts.

She said obediently: "The granddaughter has never heard about my aunt. Now that I am lucky, I would like to ask my fifth sister to tell me what our aunt is like."

Zhao Jinqing's eyes flickered.What a Zhao Jinyi, four or two pulls a thousand catties.

Zhao Qing also urged: "Quickly tell your fourth sister, your fourth sister has good drawing skills, and she will definitely be able to draw your aunt's charm."

In fact, she has said it several times, her mouth is dry, and no one serves her tea.

The man's words were indeed true, the position of my aunt in my grandfather's heart was unmatched by anyone.She just said it according to the man's description, and immediately received great attention from her grandfather.To save, in the past, apart from Zhao Jinyi, his grandfather didn't think much of his granddaughter.

Zhao Jinqing didn't dare not to say it, so she endured dry mouth and said, "After eating my second sister's wedding wine last night, I went back to my room to rest as usual. But in the middle of the night, I went to the garden in a daze, in the garden, There was a young girl wearing a long blue gown and an upturned bun walking in front of me..."

Zhao Qing murmured: "Your aunt likes to wear an upside-down bun and all kinds of long trousers the most." As he spoke, his eyes were already glistening.Zhao Jinyi had never seen his grandfather so easily moved.My grandfather is so obsessed with his aunt who passed away. I think about how he was hit hard when his aunt died.

No wonder someone wants to make a fuss about my aunt.It's really disgusting.She looked at Zhao Jinqing gravely, and the person who told Zhao Jinqing what her aunt looked like should be the same person who took away the portrait of her aunt.

Zhao Jinqing continued: "The granddaughter looked at her very amiable appearance, so she couldn't help calling her. She turned around, and the granddaughter looked at her, with a pair of almond eyes, a bright nose and red lips, white skin, black hair like clouds, and a smile Yes, a pair of dimples looming."

"The granddaughter was amazed at that time, what a delicate little girl."

"But I heard the girl say, Silly Qinger, I am your aunt."

"It turns out that my aunt is such a peerless beauty."

Zhao Jinqing finished his sentence, his throat was so dry that it was almost smoking.

Zhao Qing supported the long desk with both hands, looking at the drawing paper spread on the desk.The appearance of the girl in the painting is not far from what Zhao Jinqing said, but it is, but it lacks some charm.He tried his best to recall Jiaoer's smiles and frowns, but he couldn't remember them all.He panicked.The daughter he put on top of his heart had passed away twenty years ago, and he didn't remember it.

"Si girl, you come, you come and try."

Zhao Qing looked at Zhao Jinyi.

Zhao Jinyi was still standing, and said with a smile: "Grandfather, granddaughter has never seen Auntie, so I'm afraid she won't be able to draw the charm of Auntie. Since Fifth Sister has seen it, why not let Fifth Sister try it."

Zhao Jinqing didn't expect Zhao Jinyi to directly reject his grandfather's request.Let her draw?How could she draw it?She just recited what the man taught her over and over again.Where had she ever dreamed of a dead aunt!
"Fourth sister, younger sister is not like fourth elder sister who was enlightened by her grandfather and learned painting since she was a child. My younger sister only took a few lessons with a female teacher a few years ago. How can she draw well?"

Zhao Jinyi smiled and said: "If Fifth Sister doesn't dislike it, Fourth Sister will act as a female teacher and teach Fifth Sister to draw for a while. How does grandfather see it? Maybe my aunt will fall into Fifth Sister's dream again tonight. Fifth Sister Practicing during the day and meeting with my aunt at night, naturally progressed rapidly."

Zhao Qing felt that Zhao Jinyi had a good idea.

Zhao Jinqing gritted her teeth: "Fourth sister, my younger sister has never been talented in drawing, what if I can't draw well?"

"Didn't Fifth Younger Sister just say that she only had a few lessons with female teachers, so that's why she can't draw well? What Fifth Younger Sister said is that if someone teaches, Fifth Younger Sister Danqing will definitely be outstanding. But isn't it? How about this, From today on, Fifth Younger Sister will come to Tai'an Courtyard when she wakes up in the morning, and with my grandfather and I to guide her, Fifth Younger Sister's painting skills will surely make great progress." Zhao Jinyi smiled happily.

Zhao Jinqing gritted her teeth, looked at Zhao Jinyi, and agreed without hesitation: "For the sake of grandfather, my granddaughter is willing to suffer."

Zhao Qing felt very relieved: "Fifth girl has a heart. If you can paint your aunt's portrait well, grandfather will promise you one thing."

Zhao Jinqing slid down from the embroidered pier: "The granddaughter begged the grandfather to make the decision, and canceled the granddaughter's marriage."
