The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

Xu Yaqin said very innocently:
"No, Lord Marquis, please listen to my explanation."

Sheng Lixuan was very unreasonable and thought Xu Yaqin had bad intentions. He couldn't listen to her explanation and immediately interrupted her.

"That's enough, you vicious woman, what else do you have to say after everything has happened?"

When Taoist Wu saw that Mr. Hou had misunderstood, he immediately laughed out loud and said:

"Master Marquis, you must have misunderstood. Mrs. Xu invited me here to paint for the late Madam, not for herself."

"What...painting for the late Madam?"

Wu Daoren's words made all the inexplicable anger that had just arisen in Sheng Lixuan's heart disappear in an instant.

He thought about countless possibilities, but he didn't expect Xu Yaqin to be so kind and invite Wu Daoren to come here to paint for the late Madam.

Sheng Lixuan's eyes moved slightly, his expression changed, and he asked:
"Xu Yaqin, do you really have such good intentions?"

Seeing Sheng Lixuan's distrustful look on him, Xu Yaqin felt a little cold in her heart.

However, the personal maid Xuanhe on the side explained for her:
"Yes, Lord Marquis, my wife really painted for the late Madam. If you don't believe it, the portrait Mr. Wu just made is there. If you take a look at it, won't you know?"

Sheng Lixuan saw that Xu Yaqin was silent and ignored him, so he walked straight to the desk. When he saw the portrait of the woman that Wu Daoren had just completed, he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.

When he first saw the woman in the portrait, although her features were a bit dissimilar, he could still vaguely see the shadow of the late wife.

Two clan elders were watching the excitement. Seeing Sheng Lixuan's reaction, they hurriedly asked:

"How is it? Mr. Hou, is the woman in this painting Xu Yaqin?"

Sheng Lixuan's expression changed slightly, he shook his head in disbelief, and said slowly:

"No, no, it is indeed Qing... Qingqiu."

Sheng Lixuan couldn't care about anything else at this time. He just looked at the portrait in trance, his eyes slightly indulgent, his expression filled with emotion, and he was overjoyed for a moment, feeling like he had regained something.

Sheng Yue on the side thought that Xu Yaqin would do such a stupid thing, but fortunately it was just a false alarm. When he saw this, he said to Sheng Lizuan:
"Brother, then you are really wrong about Mrs. Xu."

Taoist Wu on the side also came to the aid and said to Sheng Lizuan:

"Yes, Mr. Hou, Mrs. Xu is really a good woman in my opinion. The reason why she went through all kinds of troubles to find an expert to paint is because she wanted to paint a portrait of the late madam. She wanted to make you happy, Mr. Hou."

After hearing the two words, Sheng Lixuan gradually recovered from his excitement. He looked up at Xu Yaqin and felt a little moved.

In this Yandu city, Sheng Lixuan knew very well the temper of Wu Daoren. If he wanted to hire someone to paint, it would definitely take a little trouble. Unexpectedly, Xu Yaqin could actually invite Wu Daoren to paint. It seemed that he had put in a lot of effort. .

Sheng Lixuan's eyes gradually softened a lot when he looked at Xu Yaqin.

"Mrs. Xu, this time, I made the mistake of blaming you."

Sheng Lixuan spoke softly, like a child who had done something wrong.

Seeing that the matter had been solved, Xu Yaqin didn't show any temper and said gently to Sheng Lizuan:

"It's okay, Mr. Hou. Now I am the suspect who damaged the portrait of the late Madam. It is normal for Mr. Hou to be wary of me. I just hope that after seeing this portrait, Mr. Hou will feel less guilty."

Outside Cuilan Xuan.

On this day, Shengze was at the martial arts training ground as usual, taking lessons from two masters, Zhao Wuyang and Lu Jingming.

After class, he hadn't seen Xu Yaqin for several days. He had learned some new things these days and couldn't wait to show off in front of Xu Yaqin.At this time, the young master, accompanied by his personal maid Xiao Lanhua, arrived outside Cuilan Pavilion, but was stopped outside by the guards of the Qingdu Marquis Mansion.

"Why can't you go in?"

"I want to see Yaya!"

"If you don't let me in, I'll tell dad to kick you all out, kick you out."

Encountering this fearless little overlord of the Hou Mansion, even the guards guarding Cui Lanxuan had a headache, so they had to patiently explain to the young master:
"Young Master, it's true that we won't let you in. It's just that Mrs. Xu is a guilty person now. The Marquis has ordered us to guard Mrs. Xu. The Marquis specifically ordered that during this period, Young Master, you are not allowed to be with Madam or him. Meet."

How did the young master know that such a big thing had happened in the Hou Mansion? He was just living quietly in the martial arts training ground. He didn't understand why these guards suddenly became so unkind. He muttered and shouted angrily:
"Daddy can't lie to people, he can't."

Seeing that the young master had already set up his posture, he was about to rush in.

These guards from the Hou Mansion could only stop him.

But he was also afraid that if the young master bumped into him, he would not be able to eat and walk around, so he was in a dilemma.

In this situation, Xiao Lanhua, the young master's personal maid, came out and said to the young master:
"Young master and the others are on errands after all. Don't embarrass them. I think since we can't see Mrs. Xu, we should go back to the room to rest."

"The young master has been tired for a day. I have already asked the kitchen to cook many of the meals that the young master likes to eat. I believe that the young master will like it."

Xiao Lanhua thought she could convince the young master with delicious food.

But Shengze was greedy, and he saw some things very clearly. At this moment, the little guy could also feel that something must have happened to Xu Yaqin, and he was worried, and there was no appetite left to eat.

The young master refused to say anything and kept shouting at the guards outside:

"I don't care, let me in! I want to see Yaya!"

The guard's face looked as ugly as possible.

"No, young master, we are also performing official duties. If you really want to see Mrs. Xu, just go to the Marquis. Only if the Marquis gives the order, will the young men dare to let you in."

Shengze didn't understand that he could come and go at will in the Qingdu Hou Mansion, and he could go wherever he wanted, and no one ever dared to stop him.

Why is it so difficult to enter Cuilan Pavilion to see Green Pig?He didn't care about the procedures or what the guards said, he just rushed in with all his energy.

"Young master, you can't rush, you can't rush."

The guard on the side quickly stopped him.

Although this young master has some background in martial arts, he is still a three-year-old child after all. He was quickly picked up by several guards and could not move. He could only keep coquettishly saying in his arms:
"Bad, you're bad, you're bad."

The guards looked at each other and asked:
"What should we do now?"

Later, it was Xiaolanhua who came up with the idea:

"It's better to hand him over to Lord Marquis."

At this time, a group of people in Cuilan Pavilion also heard the noise outside.

Sheng Yue came out to check the situation and said:
"Why are you making such a fuss and making a fuss? Who dares to make such a fuss in the Marquis Mansion?"
