The self-disciplined princess wins

Chapter 14 Portrait
If it wasn't because Zhang Hongze's painting skills were getting better and better, Aunt Bai had seen it and believed that he was not a fool, but his behavior was crazy, unlike ordinary people, maybe the word crazy is more appropriate.

But for the sake of her son, she thought, she must find a master to teach him, and this matter has to be put on the agenda.

Over the years, Aunt Bai has become more and more humble in the mansion. Now that Mrs. Hou said to go east, she dare not go west, she just wants to hang around like this day by day.

But for Zhang Hongze's sake, she should also speak up, she can't always let Zhang Hongze live in her courtyard without anyone to teach her.

She thought that serving Mrs. Hou all these years had been hard work no matter what, and if she wanted to see her keep her own place, she should give her some face.

"I want to talk to Mrs. Hou to find a gentleman for Hongze. He is 12 years old now, and he should learn something." Aunt Bai thought that Mrs. Hou should be able to agree, but it was hard to find a husband.

What gentleman would teach a madman?
She was also afraid that only the people in the Hou Mansion would know about Zhang Hongze's insanity, and it hadn't spread to the outside world. If Mr. Zhang was invited, this matter would spread to the outside world, and Zhang Hongze's marriage might be difficult to deal with in the future.

If she doesn't get married, it's even more impossible to separate from the Hou's mansion, and she doesn't want to delay Zhang Hongze, which really makes her hard to make a choice.

"Aunt Bai, this is a good thing. It should have been mentioned a long time ago. Maybe my brother can have some rules when he invites Mr. Zhang." Zhang Anchu agreed very much, and finally his efforts were not in vain.

Aunt Bai used to think that Zhang Hongze was a fool, but now she finally doesn't think so, and finally has the idea to find him a husband.

Anyway, she didn't think Zhang Hongze was a fool or lunatic. When she got along with her brother, he was very well-behaved and wouldn't mess around.

Perhaps it would be better if Mr.

"But... hey... Forget it, I'll go find Mrs. Hou right away." Aunt Bai seemed to have made up her mind, no matter what, she was the one to bring this matter up, and the decision rested with her.

Zhang Anchu is a concubine, so she can't say these things at all, she can do it herself.

She thought in her heart, maybe what Zhang Anchu said was right, maybe Zhang Hongze's situation would improve a bit by inviting a gentleman, although it was slight, it was better than no hope.

Wouldn't everyone be happy if things got better?

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Zhang Anchu didn't say much, and sent her out of the yard before carefully looking at the Qin that Aunt Bai had brought over.

This piano looks old, but the strings are new, presumably it was just replaced by Aunt Bai.

Zhang Anchu was very puzzled, how could Aunt Bai have a piano?It seems that she has never seen her play, nor this piano.

Although she was puzzled, she glanced at the sky. Since she wanted to learn the piano, she had to study hard, so she had to change her daily plan in the future, and put learning piano on the agenda.

The matter of planning is also a new method she has learned from a miscellaneous book in the past few years. She records the things to be done every day, and then classifies them by priority, and then arranges what to do at each hour. One thing, just cross it out, and then do the next thing. After a day, it can become very fulfilling.

At first, she was not used to it, but after a long time, she found this feeling very comfortable, and she could see what she did every day, saving wasted time.

Watching the completion of the daily plan, there will be a sense of satisfaction in the heart, which is intoxicating and fascinating.

She opened the book full of plans, and added the piano learning plan with a brush, only then was she satisfied.

At this time, I can no longer find my sister-in-law, so I plan to ask for advice tomorrow with Qin in my arms.

Aunt Bai didn't go directly to Madam Hou, she thought on the way, going directly to Madam Hou to talk about this matter, I'm afraid it won't be convincing.

Back in the courtyard, I found that Zhang Hongze was sitting on the stone table in the courtyard, fiddling with a few wooden cubes in his hands, and he didn't know what he was fiddling with.

Looking up and seeing Aunt Bai coming back, she didn't speak, and lowered her head to immerse herself in her own world again.

Aunt Bai has long been used to it, and only when Zhang Anchu comes, can he let go of what he is doing.

Aunt Bai entered the room, found a small wooden box from the cabinet, put it on the table, and opened the lock with the key. Inside were her savings over the years, and a crumpled piece of paper.

This is the painting that Zhang Anchu showed her that day. Aunt Bai opened it, and the painting was herself.

When she saw the painting, she felt hopeful in her heart, locked the wooden box and put it back in the cabinet, put the painting in her arms and left the yard.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the moon was hanging high in the sky, and they soon arrived at Madam Hou's residence.

"Aunt Bai, why are you here so late? What's the matter?" Jingdan asked suspiciously when she saw her coming.

Usually at this time, they should all stay in their own courtyard, and at this time, there must be something to do.

"Please Jingdan to inform Madam Hou, I have something to discuss with Madam." Aunt Bai is also respectful to Jingdan, after all, she is Madam Hou's personal servant girl, so she must not offend her.

Jingdan looked back at the room with the lights on, thought for a while, and felt that Aunt Bai had never come to disturb her at night for so many years, so there must be something wrong this time, why not make it easier for her, and said: "Okay, You wait."

When Jing Dan entered the room, Mrs. Hou's headdress had been taken off, her hair was hanging loose, she was wearing a cape, and she was only wearing an inner jacket, and she was flipping through the ledger.

Zhang Anxian came back in the past two days and was conferred the title of Princess Chang'an by the queen. She spent a lot of money on a family banquet and a celebration banquet, and at least received a lot of gifts, which made her feel better.

"Ma'am, Aunt Bai asked to see her outside the courtyard, and she said she has something to discuss." Jing Dan stepped forward and said.

Madam Hou raised her head, put down the account book, and asked, "What's the matter? It's so late, you still want to come over?"

"I don't know, I don't know. Aunt Bai has never asked to see you at night. I think it's something important." Seeing that Mrs. Hou seemed to want to see her, Jing Dan thought about Aunt Bai's trip at such a late hour, so she said a helping hand .

"Let her in." Madam Hou rubbed her forehead and said.

Jingdan got her words and went to bring Aunt Bai in.

"Ma'am, it's my fault for disturbing Madam's rest at such a late hour." Aunt Bai entered the room, bowed her head and said apologetically.

"What's the matter today, let's talk about it quickly." Madam Hou didn't want to say anything more to Aunt Bai, she was a little impatient, and she was going to rest soon.

"Ma'am, look." Aunt Bai took out Zhang Hongze's painting from her bosom and handed it to Madam Hou.

Mrs. Hou caught it suspiciously, with a hint of disgust in her eyes, after all the paper was crumpled, but she opened it and took a look.

But as soon as he opened it, he was stunned, not understanding what Aunt Bai meant by bringing her portrait over.
