Chapter 696: Prince Wang, our master invites you

Chunsheng and Lu also laughed when they saw it, especially Lu: "Oh, my second sister, this is a great painting!"

"If you ask Auntie, this is how a letter should be written. It's so easy to understand. Even Auntie can understand what it means after seeing this painting. Haha!"

"Second sister is quite clever," Chunsheng smiled.

Wang Yugui looked at Chunsheng and said, "Chunsheng, didn't your elder sister draw a picture for you?"

"Ah, no, no," Chunsheng laughed, and then said, "Big sister's handwriting is very good, as beautiful as a painting!"

When Wang Yugui heard this, he laughed. Chunsheng knew how to praise people!

The eldest sister has a calm temperament and likes to practice calligraphy and read books on weekdays. Especially after Chunsheng won the first place twice in a row, she became very motivated and often borrowed books from Wang Yugui.

They were talking excitedly when suddenly a man's voice came from the door: "Hey, Chunsheng, you're home!"

When everyone heard the noise, they all looked towards the yard. The courtyard doors of ordinary houses in the village were open during the day.

As the man spoke, he walked in. Chunsheng took a look and frowned, "Why is he here?"

The person who came was none other than Lu Quan, the steward of the wealthy Lu family who liked to take advantage of others for power.

"Oh, Master Wang, it's you who is here!" Lu Quan saw Wang Yugui and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

Wang Yugui smiled politely: "Oh, who was it? It turns out to be Butler Lu. Hello!"

"Hello, Young Master Wang, Hello, Young Master Wang," Lu Quan smiled and nodded.

He looked at Wang Yugui and said, "Just now our master heard from the servant that you, Master Wang, had entered the village, but he still didn't believe it."

"I was specially asked to come over to take a look. I didn't expect that it was you who came!"

Wang Yugui frowned after hearing this. What does that mean? Why is Lu Dafu staring at me as I enter the village?

I'm not a bad guy. Why does Lu Quan say something so weird? It's as if we are preventing the Japanese from entering the village.

"Butler Lu, I came to the village to visit Aunt Lu and Chunsheng. I hope it doesn't bother your master. Why is your master concerned about me?" Wang Yugui looked at Lu Quan and smiled.

Lu Quan hurriedly laughed and said, "Oh, Prince Wang, please don't misunderstand me!"

"It is a blessing for our Xiaoao Village that you can come to our Xiaoao Village, ah, haha!"

Wang Yugui frowned again after hearing this. Why is Lu Quan flattering me? Is he asking me for something?

"Butler Lu, you are too kind," Wang Yugui smiled, looked at Lu Quan, and asked, "Butler Lu, could it be that your master wants to talk to me about something?"

"Ah, yes." Lu Quan nodded, looked at Wang Yugui, and said with a smile: "Master Wang, we have a new little boy in our family. This is such a happy event. Have you heard about it?"

"Well, I heard from Chunsheng and the others that congratulations, your master finally has a grandson." Wang Yugui nodded and smiled.

I thought: I don’t even know if he is his grandson!

Lu Quan hurriedly smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you for your kind words, Master Wang!"

"So, our master heard that Prince Wang was coming, so he wanted to invite Prince Wang to visit our house."

"Please help our young master draw a few portraits. Our master has heard that you are a famous painter in the city, and you are the best at portraits."

Then he looked at Wang Yugui and said, "The last time you painted the portrait of my seventh uncle, our master saw it and was very envious!"

"I have been thinking about asking Prince Wang to draw a few portraits for my master sometime."

"So I was specially sent to invite you, Mr. Wang. Please don't refuse!"

After hearing this, Wang Yugui understood that Lu Dafu wanted to paint portraits of himself and his grandson.

Chunsheng frowned when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Yugui waved his hand at him and said to Lu Quan with a smile, "So it's Master Lu and the young master who want a portrait! No problem!"

Seeing Wang Yugui agreed so readily, Lu Quan was very happy and quickly bent down to make a gesture of invitation: "Master Wang, please come in!"

"Okay, but, Steward Lu, the cost of painting my portrait is not cheap," Wang Yugui smiled.

He added, "I charge at least two taels of silver for a portrait. Your master won't be reluctant to spend the money, will he?"

"Ah? Two taels of silver for a portrait? That's so expensive!" Lu Quan was a little surprised.

Wang Yugui smiled and said, "It's not that expensive. Some wealthy families in the city even give more!"

"Yes, is that so?" Lu Quan also frowned after hearing this.

Chunsheng spoke up: "Of course, if you don't believe me, you can go ask around in the city. My brother Yugui is a famous painter in the city, not just an ordinary person!"

"Yes, housekeeper Lu, your master will definitely not be willing to let him go. I think you should go back and persuade him to forget it. Let him hold his little grandson at home and look in the mirror more often. What's the point of drawing a portrait?" Shuisheng is very good at insulting people

However, what he said was still polite, as he didn't ask Lu Dafu to pee and look at himself in the mirror.

After hearing this, Lu Quan glared at Shuisheng and said, "Hey, Shuisheng, what are you talking about? How do you know that our master is reluctant to let go?"

"Humph, it's just two taels of silver, our master can afford it!"

Then he smiled at Wang Yugui and said, "Master Wang, I am here to invite you to my house."

"As for the specifics of the portrait, you can discuss it with our master when you arrive at our house."

"If you don't go, I won't be able to complete my mission!"

"Okay, since you can't make the decision, I won't make it difficult for you. I'll go talk to your Master Lu." Wang Yugui smiled after hearing this.

He turned around and said to Chunsheng: "Chunsheng, come with me!"

"Okay," Chunsheng nodded.

Shuisheng hurriedly said, "Brother Yugui, please take me with you. I want to see your portrait, too!"

Wang Yugui listened, smiled and nodded: "Okay, then you can come too!"

Then he smiled at Mrs. Lu and said, "Aunt Lu, let's go to the Lu Mansion first."

"Okay, come back early to eat when you're done. I'll prepare the meal right away." Mrs. Lu nodded hurriedly.

He added: "If Lu Dafu dares to embarrass you, let Shuisheng run back and tell me!"

"Oh, Chunsheng's mother, look at what you said. Prince Wang is our master's distinguished guest. Why would we embarrass him?" Lu Quan heard this and turned around and said.

Wang Yugui waved his hand and said, "Okay, Steward Lu, please stop talking. Let's go!"

"Okay, okay, Mr. Wang, please come in." Lu Quan nodded and greeted Wang Yugui with a smile.

Wang Yugui brought the two brothers Chunsheng and soon arrived at the Lu Mansion. The Lu family was indeed very rich. The house in the mansion was very spacious and decorated lavishly.

"Oh, Master Wang, you are here!" Lu Dafu was very happy to see Wang Yugui coming.

Greeted very warmly: "Come, come, please take a seat!"

"Oh, Prince Wang, this is your first time sitting in my house, ah, haha!"

As he said this, he waved his hand and said, "My Lord, do you think the furnishings in my house are okay?"

"Not worse than those wealthy families in the city, right?"

Wang Yugui listened, looked around, and said with a smile: "The furnishings in Mr. Lu's house are naturally very luxurious!"

"Compared with the wealthy families in the city..."

Wang Yugui paused for a moment, and Lu Dafu looked at him with wide eyes: "How is it?"
