Chapter 038: Knowing

Chu Xinyu's white little face was dyed with a thin layer of blush. Under the dim candlelight, it looked particularly crystal clear and charming. She tapped Zhubo's forehead with the pen and scolded her: "Nothing nonsense!"

After speaking, he picked up the drawing paper and was about to knead it into a ball. Suddenly he thought of something, pushed the portrait in front of Zhubo and asked her, "You said just now that he looked familiar, do you know him?"

Zhu Bo lowered his head and stared at the outline on the drawing carefully for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen him!"

The girl’s painting method is different from others. She uses homemade charcoal powder as paint, and uses brushes, cotton, erasers, etc. as painting tools to depict the characters vividly. Lan Yi said that the girl has a pair of "magic" hands, and the characters and flowers and birds she depicts are as delicate and realistic as twins, especially the figure paintings, where every fine line on her forehead or every hair on her head is revealed.

Therefore, when she saw this figure painting, the girl described the outlines of the man's face, eyes, nose and mouth very carefully, so she felt it looked familiar.

Over the past two years, she has been almost inseparable from the girl. She knows clearly who she meets with. She is sure that she is not the person she has known in the past two years. Could it be that she met when she went out today? But why did the girl draw him?

Could it be that the girl fell in love with him?

To be honest, this man looks so pretty, no wonder the girl drew him down.

When Chu Xinyu heard her say this, he didn't ask anything else. He put the painting aside and changed into a new piece of rice paper to continue to depict the bonsai flowers.

This time she drew very quickly and was not distracted. She finished it in a short while.

"Tomorrow morning, go and buy these materials for me." As he said that, Chu Xinyu handed over the paper he had prepared the materials to bamboo and silk. "If the style of the flower pot is not similar to the one drawn on it, just buy a similar size."

She calculated that if she could collect all the materials tomorrow and start doing them tomorrow night, she would probably be able to prepare them the day before the banquet.

"I'll go prepare tomorrow morning." Zhu Bo took the paper, glanced at the man's portrait and said, "Girl, is he very important to you? If I remember him, I will tell you the first time."

Zhu Bo must have seen him, but it has been a bit long and can't remember it for the time being. Sometimes people are like this. When you deliberately think about someone or something, you can't remember it. When you accidentally, they appear clearly.

Chu Xinyu rolled up the portrait and put it in the drawer. When he thought of seeing the painting in the gallery, he sighed in his heart, "Just, the future is long, if you have a destiny, you will eventually return to her."

"girl……"

Chu Xinyu looked up and saw Zhu Bo with a look of wanting to speak but stopping, "What's the matter?"

"There is something I think you should know." Zhu Bo said: "I just met Liu Yue'er in the garden outside. She was working in Qingli Garden. She told me that today, the wife of Zuo Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple and the mother Lin from the Duke of Ying's mansion came to the mansion to propose marriage to the second young master Qi of Anxing Bo's mansion."

Zhu Bo paused, and then quickly said, "She said that the partner of the proposal was you, a girl, but did the eldest lady want to give you to Mr. Jiang San? Why did he become Mr. Qi Er again? I wondered if she was the person in the eldest lady's room would lie to me, but she said you had saved her grandmother's life and dared not lie to you."

Chu Xinyu said in surprise: "When did I save her grandmother?"

Zhu Bo said, "I asked her this way, she said a few days before you left the mansion, her grandmother was seriously ill and had no silver to hire a doctor. The eldest lady was not in the mansion at that time, and the others refused to lend a helping hand. She was discovered by you while hiding in the corner of the garden. You asked the reason, and gave her all the silver on her body without saying a word, and also asked her to take care of her for a few days of leave to take care of her grandmother. When she returned home after the leave, you had been sent out of the Marquis' Mansion, and she always remembered your kindness."

It turned out to be a good fate that was planted inadvertently before. Chu Xinyu remembered what Chu Jiayun said when she was in Anshantang. It was true that Lin’s mother came to the mansion, but Chu Jiayun was not clear about the content of their meeting. It seemed that Liu Yue'er did not cheat Zhu Bo.

Anxing Bo Mansion? Isn’t it the family of Concubine Qi? Based on her understanding of Yuan, no matter whether it is the Duke of Ying or Anxing Bo Mansion, as long as Yuan gets benefits, it doesn’t matter which family she marrys.

Now it seems that if she doesn't do anything, she is afraid that Yuan will not get any benefits and will continue to use her marriage to trade more valuable things.

...

The night should be dark and quiet, but in the northern city of Jinjing, it is exactly the opposite.

There is a long Yanhua Street here, with high towers and pavilions, pavilions and lofts on both sides. It is quiet and deserted during the day. At night, there are dazzling lights and wine, singing and dancing. A bay of Huansha Creek passes through the city, adding a little bit of distinctive charm to this fairyland on earth, making people linger.

Located at the end of Yanhua Street, Juxing Pavilion is next to Huansha River. It is the liveliest and most prosperous singing and dancing workshop on the street. It is built from three three- and four-story buildings with a large practical area, with pavilions and pavilions and rockery lotus ponds.

Among them, a three-story building near the riverside is brightly lit on the top floor, the interior decoration is gorgeous and fancy, and the tassels fall on the ground and veils flutter. A woman in a bright red dress sits in front of the piano platform in the hall, her jade hands tweak the strings, and the sound of the piano is lingering around the beams.

Another woman in a pale tight dress stood in front of the screen and respectfully blessed her body: "Peace Master."

"How was that thing done?" A light female voice screen came out from behind, and then the sound of changing clothes was heard.

The woman in front of the screen said, "I failed to do it because the painting has been bought by someone. However, when I inquire, the owner of the Pavilion Jiang once led the fifth girl from the Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion to the VIP room."

"You mean painting is bought for her?" The voice of dressing was gone, and the light female voice suddenly became colder. "The boss doesn't even sell face to the Fu family of Duke E's Mansion. How capable do you think a fool is to let the boss go? Besides, you have failed several times and many times. Our cabinet should consider whether to replace you!"

When the woman heard this, her face suddenly changed. She knelt down on one knee and begged: "Master, please give us another chance."

The Pavilion Master snorted coldly, his figure shook, and walked out from behind the screen. She was wearing a long jade-colored thin silk dress. Although her facial features were elegant and elegant, it was better than her graceful figure. With the charming temperament that radiated all over her, it was particularly stunning.

She said: "This mission has been taken for two years and has given you countless opportunities. As a result, she still returns to the capital perfectly. Let's talk about it, "Shadow" and still have the face to gain a foothold in the killer world?"

The woman said, "It's not that we are incompetent, but that the other party is too cautious. Every time they take action, someone will secretly stop it. And the maid next to her is not an ordinary person."

"Have you found out the origin of that maid?"

"I only know that she was injured and fell near Puling Temple and was rescued by Miss Chu Wu. The previous incident could not be found at all, just like someone deliberately took it away."

She really rarely looked at Chu Xinyu. She originally thought she was just a legitimate daughter of a marquis who was not favored by her family, but she didn't expect that she was so capable. Not only was there someone secretly protected her, but there was also an extraordinary master around her.

The Pavilion Master thought to himself, it seemed that if you want to get rid of her, you have to think of other ways. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, you go back first."

The woman stood up and took the order and retreated.
