Chapter 112
"Okay, I'll open it and have a look. What good things did these five girls draw?" After the words fell, the scroll was opened, and a lifelike head appeared in front of everyone. The old lady was startled, and then her expression changed. He hastily closed the scroll, and stared at Nalan Qiuting with cold and stern eyes, causing her to kneel on the ground in fear.
"Grandmother, what's the matter?" Nalan Qing asked suspiciously.
"Qiu Ting, where did your painting come from?" the old lady asked.
"Yes..." Nalan Qiuting hesitated to answer.
"What is it? Could it be stolen?" Third Aunt Fang Ruoqiong said mockingly.
"I didn't!" Nalan Qiuting hastily argued.
"Third sister, Qiu Ting is a good boy, how could he steal other people's things!" Lan Ruoxi said weakly.
"It's your turn to speak?" Third Aunt Fang Ruoqiong scolded Lan Ruoxi, causing Lan Ruoxi to shiver in fright.
"Why are you everywhere?" The old lady scolded Fang Ruoqiong.
"Mother, what kind of painting is it? Why don't you open it and let everyone have a look!" Fang Ruoqiong said with frowned eyebrows.
"Go and see!" The old lady opened the scroll in a hurry, and saw a graceful and luxurious head portrait presented in front of everyone on the portrait. Everyone was stunned, thinking that it was a simple beauty's head, but the aunts who had seen the empress dowager After a closer look, they already recognized that the portrait belonged to the empress dowager.
"Here, isn't this the empress dowager?" the eldest lady said nervously in a low voice.
"Yes, I can see it too, it's really like it, the painting is really like it!" Fang Ruoqiong on the side also exclaimed.
The second aunt Tang Lin did not express her opinion, while the fifth aunt Lan Ruoxi looked at Nalan Qiuting with her head bowed in surprise.
"Qiu Ting, the empress dowager must be delighted to see this portrait of you!" The old lady also praised.
"Qiu Ting, when did you learn how to draw portraits?" Third Miss Nalan Rou asked suspiciously.
"Sister, I have learned it a long time ago. If you don't believe me, hurry up tomorrow and I'll draw a picture for you?" Nalan Qiuting said with a low eyebrow.
,
"Why rush tomorrow, why not paint now!" Nalan Rou sneered.
"Nonsense, now is the time to discuss something, why did you let the fifth girl draw again?" the old lady scolded.
Nalan Rou's face darkened, and she looked suspiciously at Nalan Qiuting, and snorted disdainfully.
"Everyone's presents have already been presented, so tomorrow they will be sent to the palace, let's see which one the Empress Dowager likes, and it will be your great blessing to be rewarded by the Empress Dowager!" said the old lady.
"Wait a minute, mother, aren't all the young ladies ready? Why doesn't the eldest lady let everyone see it?" Fang Ruoqiong, the third aunt beside her, questioned.
"Why are you everywhere?" The old lady's sharp eyes swept towards Fang Ruoqiong.
"Isn't it? Mother, even if you are partial to the eldest lady, you can't be so openly partial, right? Anyway, these girls are all your granddaughters. Although they have a share in the concubine, are they from the Nalan family?" The third aunt Fang Ruoqiong said dissatisfied.
"Fang Ruoqiong, do you want to rebel?" the old lady shouted angrily.
"No!" Fang Ruoqiong whispered quickly.
"If you dare to say such a thing again, I will ground you. Do you still have the appearance of an elder?" The old lady said coldly.
Fang Ruoqiong shuddered, and unconsciously took half a step back.
"Since the third sister said so, mother and daughter-in-law will not make things difficult for you. Qing'er planned to give the empress dowager a piece of embroidery, but the embroidery thread was gone, and she couldn't find the same one for a while, so she asked Choose another one, as for what to choose as a gift, there is no result yet, so I can't show it to everyone today!" The lady explained from the side.
"So that's the case!" Everyone nodded in understanding.
However, the third lady, Nalanrou, said, "I don't know what kind of embroidery thread my eldest sister lacks. Why don't my mother tell me that my daughter has some rare threads that can be given to my eldest sister!"
"No need, I've seen your embroidery thread before, but it's not there!" Nalan Qing flatly refused.
Nalanrou's face darkened, she glanced at Nalanqing, then pursed her lips and remained silent.
"Okay, put everything here, you guys go back and rest, you've been busy all day today!" the old lady said lazily.
"Yes, mother, please rest!" The lady blinked at Nalan Qing, then turned and walked out.
The rest of the people also retreated tactfully, and when Nalan Ying left alone, the old lady said coldly: "Keep that purse and use it yourself, your gift, the mansion has prepared it for you!"
"Thank you grandma!" Nalan Ying paused, then turned her head and said with a sweet smile.
"Go down!" The old lady gave her an annoyed look, and waved her hands irritably.
After Nalan Ying went out, the old lady leaned on the soft couch with a gloomy expression.
"Qiu Niang, why do you think I can't see through those four girls? Is she really stupid or fake? No matter what, she can't make a low-quality purse? You saw that purse just now What does it look like? How dare she take something that people don't even use now, and send it to the palace?" The old lady scolded angrily.
"Madam, let me tell you, these four girls are as wise as they are stupid!" Aunt Qiu said with a smile.
"You are helping those four girls to talk again. I really don't know what good that girl has given you to Qiu's family. You must be willing to let that Qiuyue go to her. If you stick to me and stay in Qing'er's room, there will be a lot of love in the future." Decent home, you are good!" The old lady sighed.
"Old lady, your kindness Qiuniang is in my heart, but Qiuyue is a girl whose life is in danger. The fortune-teller said that only by staying with a master who does not show his dew can she keep herself. Therefore, Qiuniang is here This matter is for personal gain, the old lady also understands what Qiuniang is thinking, right?" Aunt Qiu said tactfully.
"Of course I understand. It is precisely because I understand that it is difficult to say anything!" said the old lady.
The two were talking, but only heard the little girl outside come in to report, "Master is back from outside!"
"Let him in quickly!" the old lady said hastily.
The little girl hurriedly went out to invite Prime Minister Nalan and came in, only to see that he was dusty and anxious, she didn't know why the old lady was so eager to find him.
"Mother, what happened?" Prime Minister Nalan asked worriedly.
"Look!" The old lady showed the two gifts to Prime Minister Nalan.
At first, Prime Minister Nalan was attracted by the cloak, but when he saw the portrait, his eyes straightened.
