"Oh, the old lady and madam are still thoughtful. The two madams are so kind to me."

"I'll ask you two to go back and thank the two ladies for me later." Wang Yugui hurriedly stepped forward and said to the two old ladies.

Then she turned to Ruan Dongmei and said, "Mrs. Dongmei, let's start painting."

"Okay." Ruan Dongmei curled her lips and put on a flower-appreciating pose for Wang Yugui to draw.

After finishing one drawing while standing, I drew another while sitting.

After finishing two paintings, he went in to change his clothes and took Wang Yugui to the back garden.

The two old women were watching over them like door gods. Wang Yugui was very happy, and he could paint with peace of mind.

Ruan Dongmei was not happy. The two old ladies were staring at her. She did not dare to talk to Wang Yugui anymore, nor did she dare to act too seductively.

I could only draw a few portraits in the back garden. After finishing the painting, Ruan Dongmei said lazily: "Painter Xiao Wang, that's all for today."

"I'm tired and have to go back to rest. You should also go back early."

With that said, he turned to call the maid: "Xiaoya, go get the fifty taels of silver from my room and pay it to Painter Xiao Wang!"

After saying that, he looked back at Wang Yugui with a resentful look, then turned and left.

Wang Yugui took the silver and left the Zhang Mansion under the escort of two nuns.

Although he made fifty taels of silver from his trip to Zhang's mansion today, Wang Yugui was not in a very good mood.

I always feel that the money earned by Zhang's family is not as simple and happy as that of Yuan Yuan's family!

Hey, it can be seen that Ruan Dongmei is lonely in Zhang Mansion.

"Painter Xiao Wang, Painter Xiao Wang" Wang Yugui was walking back when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.

Looking back, it turned out to be Capt. Liu!

Liu Captou came over and said with a smile: "Painter Xiao Wang, where have you been painting?"

"Yes, I just came back from painting the portrait in Zhang Yuanwai's mansion." Wang Yugui nodded and said with a smile.

After hearing this, Mr. Liu quickly asked: "Why, does Mr. Zhang also like portraits?"

"It's not Zhang Yuanwai who wants a portrait, it's one of Mr. Zhang's concubines who wants a portrait," Wang Yugui said.

After hearing this, Capt. Liu frowned: "Ah, it can't be that girl from Chef Ruan's family, Ruan Dongmei, right?"

"Well, that's her." Wang Yugui smiled. It seems that Ruan Dongmei is somewhat famous in the city.

Liu Captou looked at Wang Yugui and said with a smile: "Painter Wang, that girl Ruan Dongmei is not simple. You, don't get too close to her!"

"Oh, Capt. Liu, why do you say that? Isn't Ruan Dongmei just a concubine of Mr. Zhang San?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

Liu Captou touched his head: "Hey, what should I say? Painter Xiao Wang, I feel that Ruan Dongmei is not simple."

"She's just a concubine, you'd better stay away from her!"

"Hey, Capt. Liu, you're overthinking it. She asked me to paint her portrait, so I went there."

"Besides, I also specifically informed the old lady and madam in their mansion first. I went to have the portrait done openly," Wang Yugui said hurriedly.

When Liu Captou heard about it, he laughed: "Oh, Painter Xiao Wang, this is so good!"

"I'm kindly reminding you because I heard someone say that you and Ruan Dongmei used to be very close!"

"Ah? Who is it? Who is talking nonsense? How can I be close to Ruan Dongmei? I have nothing to do with her!" Wang Yugui was shocked.

Unexpectedly, there are still rumors about him and Ruan Dongmei!

Liu Captou saw that Wang Yugui was a little excited, and patted him on the shoulder: "Painter Xiao Wang, calm down, calm down!"

"It seems that Ruan Dongmei's brother used to brag to people that there are so many people who like his sister."

"The famous painter in the city, Painter Xiao Wang, likes my sister very much, but my sister thinks his family doesn't have much money..."

"Painter Xiao Wang, you can't listen to what children say! Don't be angry."

"Is it Ruan Dongmei's two brothers who are as fat as pigs? Oh, it makes me so angry." Wang Yugui was shocked and angry when he heard this

He never imagined that Ruan Dongmei's two fat brothers would talk such nonsense outside.

Liu Captou said hurriedly: "Painter Wang, I heard this by chance from people chatting on Dashi Street before."

"Children talk nonsense, and adults spread rumors. This, this is a common thing. Don't be angry, don't be angry!"

"Oh, Capt. Liu, can I not be angry? They are spreading rumors! They are ruining my reputation!"

"I don't like Ruan Dongmei. Why is her fat brother talking so nonsense? I have never seen his sister alone."

"I know Ruan Dongmei because she used to work at Lu's Embroidery Workshop with my second sister."

"Before she got married, I only met her two or three times, and I had no connection with her at all!" Wang Yugui hurriedly explained.

Liu Captou smiled: "Yeah, Painter Xiao Wang, of course I believe you."

"Hey, you can't even look down on people like Ruan Dongmei."

"Blame me, blame me. I shouldn't talk too much. I'm kindly reminding you."

"Well, Capt. Liu, I understand you have good intentions." Wang Yugui nodded, and then said: "However, Capt. Liu, next time you hear someone spreading rumors like this, you have to catch that person. "

"I'm going to the county government to sue him for spreading rumors and slandering him and ruining his reputation!"

"Haha, okay, okay, okay." Liu Captou smiled and said: "But, Mr. Wang, it is very difficult for the government to control such street rumors. If you really interrogate them, they will definitely deny it and say I never said that, haha!”

Liu Captou said and looked at Wang Yugui: "Oh, by the way, Painter Xiao Wang, Mr. Hai asked you to go to the Yamen tomorrow morning. He has something to ask you!"

"I was just about to tell you when I passed by your store, but I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Oh, okay, then I'll go early tomorrow morning." Wang Yugui nodded after hearing this.

……

After returning home, Wang Yugui still felt that her anger was still lingering. Why didn't Ruan Dongmei care about her precious brother?

How can you talk such nonsense outside and cause people to misunderstand?

He obviously has nothing to do with Ruan Dongmei, but this rumor spread as if he was very ambiguous with her!

I don’t know if Ruan Dongmei knows that her brother is bragging and talking nonsense outside. Grandma, she needs to find an opportunity for her to educate her precious brothers!

If this kind of rumor spreads to Zhang's house, it won't be good for her.

"Brother, did you go to Zhang's house today to paint Sister Ruan's portrait? Did it go well?" The eldest sister saw that Wang Yugui was sitting in a daze as soon as he came home, so she hurriedly ran over and asked

Wang Yugui nodded: "It's okay!"

"Brother, why do you look so bad? Are you angry in Zhang's house?" The eldest sister asked hurriedly.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang also came over, looked at her son and asked, "Yes, your son, my mother also felt that you were very angry when you came back."

"Is Miss Ruan giving you a hard time?"

"Oh, no, mother, eldest sister, please stop guessing."

"I had a good time doing the portrait painting at Zhang's Mansion today. I came back with fifty taels of silver." Wang Yugui said, taking out the money and showing it to his mother and eldest sister.

When the eldest sister saw Yinzi, her big eyes immediately brightened up: "Oh, brother, that's great. I didn't expect Sister Ruan to take care of your business so much!"

"Yes, Miss Ruan is now a rich person and can spend more generously." Mrs. Wang also smiled.
