Chapter 44 Fake Paintings
Xie Ning comforted Xu Yinghuai distressedly.

"Brother Huai, Ning'er will come to see you at this time every day from now on!"

She didn't dare to stay too long, so she left as soon as she finished speaking.

Xu Yinghuai didn't keep her either.

Xie Lingyu naturally knew about Xie Ning's secret visit to the ancestral hall.

She even knew exactly what the two said.

Although the old lady punished Xu Yinghuai by kneeling in the ancestral hall for half a month, he will definitely come out on the old lady's birthday in seven days.

Thinking about it, the old lady will take advantage of the opportunity to avoid this punishment on her birthday.

After thinking about it, Xie Lingyu asked someone to call Caixuan over.

"How's your embroidery work?"

"I'm not good at it. I can embroider some simple purses."

"It doesn't matter. You can get two knee pads yourself. They must be soft."

Caixuan didn't know what it meant, but she did it obediently.

She thought Xie Lingyu wanted to use it for herself, so she sewed it carefully in the past few days and pricked her fingers several times.

Of course, this is something.

Now Xie Lingyu is still busy with general affairs.

……

Xu Jiaxu often came to pay his respects.

Xie Lingyu usually asked him if he was eating well every day.Did you sleep well?

This made Xu Jiaxu a little uneasy.

Other people in the family study worry every day that their parents keep asking where they have read the book and how much they have practiced calligraphy. Can their husbands praise me?
But when it came to Xie Lingyu, he only cared about his body every day and didn't care about his studies.

On this day, Xu Jiaxu was praised by Mr. Liu again in the clan school.

It made the little bully Xu Yuan jealous.

Since that day when they grabbed the bookcase, their relationship has gotten better day by day.

Xu Yuan also changed his position and sat next to Xu Jiaxu, becoming the same table with him.

He lay on the table, resting his head on his head, and said with envy: "Now that you are home, your mother should reward you again! Mr. Liu praised me for being active last time, and my mother rewarded me with a large sum of money when she came home. With the money, he also bought me a small car to play with!"

"I really want you to praise me more, sir!"

He also has a lot of toys and food he wants to buy!

Xu Jiaxu pursed his lips and packed his books.

"My mother...has never asked these questions."

"Huh? Then your mother probably doesn't like you!"

Xu Yuan blurted out in a carefree manner.

After saying this, he felt something was wrong, and Xu Jiaxu looked lonely.

Brother Xu Yuan seemed to have hugged his shoulders, "It's okay, I will get the reward in the future, and I will give you half of it! I will also let you play with me in the little car."

Xu Jiaxu moved and broke away from his hand.

"I don't like to play! I'm going home first."

"Okay, okay, little nerd."

As soon as he returned to the Hou Mansion, Xu Jiaxu ordered the servant to take the bookcase back and headed towards Zhilan Courtyard.

"Master Xu is back."

Some servants he met on the road saluted him with smiles.

Xie Lingyu gained power, and as her legitimate son, even if he was adopted, he was more respected than before.

If there is a son at home, let him hang out with Xu Jiaxu more often.

It would also be great if I could be a study companion for Master Xu.

"Mother?"

"Come on."

Xie Lingyu was in a good mood.

She has sorted out many matters in the house. Those who were unwilling to pay their debts were given twenty slaps for being too stubborn, and they obeyed.

Others who had their jobs cut off or were assigned to less lucrative positions also came to pay them.

From now on, just do your normal business every day.

It's just time for lunch.

Xie Lingyu asked Xu Jiaxu to sit down and eat together.

"Mom, Mr. Liu praised me today."

Xu Jiaxu struggled for a long time and finally said something silently.

Xie Lingyu nodded.

"very good."

"I specially ordered someone to make your favorite sweet cheese. It should be ready in a while."

After listening to my mother's words, I returned to eating.

Xu Jiaxu was a little depressed.

His mother really didn't care about his studies at all.

When the sweet cheese was served, Xu Jiaxu just lowered his head and ate silently.Children don't know how to hide their emotions yet. What's going on in their hearts is all on their faces, which can be seen through at a glance.

"Jiaxu doesn't like it?"

Xu Jiaxu stiffened and shook his head, "I like it!"

He shook his head but said he liked it, which made Xie Lingyu's lips curl up slightly.

She reached out and poked his bulging face.

"Is Jiaxu dissatisfied with me?"

"no!"

Xu Jiaxu said quickly.

He puts down the spoon.

Sit upright.

"Mom, I just don't understand why you don't care about my studies or what I do in school."

Saying that, Xu Jiaxu lowered his head in despair.

Mother knew that Mr. Liu praised him, so she just said it was very good.

Different from ordinary parents!
Only then did Xie Lingyu understand the reason for Xu Jiaxu's awkwardness.

She held her forehead and laughed.

"I don't care. Haven't you noticed that the boy takes away a draft of your practice every day?"

Xu Jiaxu nodded.

Of course he found it.

He thought that the boy also wanted to learn to write, so he wrote a few correct notes, marked them with tones, and gave them to the boy.

"I asked him to bring it to me, so I have always known how Jiaxu is doing in his studies, and I feel reassured. I know you work hard, so I care more about your body, fearing that you will break it. .”

"Mr. Liu's compliment to you is what I expected and it should be. Jiaxu is smart and studious. What teacher wouldn't like such a student!"

Xie Lingyu's compliment made Xu Jiaxu blush and feel a little embarrassed.

He muttered: "I misunderstood my mother!"

"It doesn't matter, Jiaxu is making progress, I'm very happy."

If it were Xu Jiaxu before, even if she asked, she would just bury it in her heart and worry secretly.

If you dare to ask her now, isn't that progress?

Xie Lingyu's eyes fell on Xu Jiaxu.

At his age, his hair is growing like a strip, and his newly made clothes are a little shorter.

"Go back and rest for a while. Don't start reading when you feel bloated!"

Xu Jiaxu responded.

Seeing him walking away, Xie Lingyu asked Tao Yue to order someone to make some new clothes for Xu Jiaxu.

After eating, she felt a little tired, so she went back to her room to rest.

The most vicious hour of the sun had passed, and Mrs. Song came.

He said he wanted to return the painting.

She returned all the other things on the same day, except for the Picture of Xishan, which she has yet to return.

The peach moon and the lotus moon look at each other.

"Go and call Madam, I'll go over and take a look." He Yue stepped away.

Mrs. Song was sitting in the hall, sipping tea, and was a little dissatisfied when she saw He Yue was the only one coming.

"Where's your wife?"

"My wife hasn't woken up from her nap yet. Please wait a moment, madam."

Mrs. Song snorted: "She feels it's too much."

He Yue smiled and didn't reply. She just asked the maid to bring some pastries.

She looked at it and saw that what Sangye was holding should be the painting.

The movements were very careful.

Sang Ye felt the eyes and looked over.

The two look at each other.

There is an idea in my heart.

She has something.

There was a sound and Xie Lingyu came out.

The two of them looked away.

Mrs. Song raised her chin, "Sang Ye, return the painting to Mrs. Shizi!"

There was no fear on her face.

She looked at the painting, and it was exactly the same as the real one. Li Miaoshou also said that it was the most similar painting he had ever imitated.

Xie Lingyu unfolded the scroll.

Under Song's confident gaze, she smiled faintly and opened her red lips slightly.

"This is a fake painting!"
