Seeing Shihua, Xiahou Wenyuan was filled with hatred. He was just a little bit away from selling it for a good price, but now...
Shihua hid behind Yun, only sticking out her little head. Her eyes were curved, but Xiahou Wenyuan could see ridicule and disdain in her eyes.
"Mother, look, a loyal monkey."
Yun glanced at him and said lightly: "Oh, it's Monkey Master!" Then, he simply ignored him.
Xiahou Wenyuan felt his heart stagnate, and an inexplicable feeling of sadness spread.
She ignored him, ignored him, ignored him.
He originally thought that after the divorce, Yun would be sad and haggard, and would go back to beg him before long.
At that time, if she could give up all her property and be obedient, then he would consider taking her as a concubine with great reluctance, and she would be grateful and devoted to him.
But after such a long time, Yun Shi didn't even go to ask him for help, which made him very unhappy.
Look at Yun today. She is wearing a turquoise brocade skirt with double-flowered patterns and a top-grade jade headpiece. She looks fresh and elegant, low-key yet luxurious.
Looking at her face again, her fair skin was tinged with a slight peach pink, her two willow-leaf eyebrows were green without any makeup, her small and straight nose showed stubbornness, and her petal-like red lips seemed to be smiling but not quite.
This is not the yellow and haggard appearance of a divorced woman. Compared with her peak beauty when she was a girl, she has a more charming and mature charm, just like her name, Yunniang.
It seems that Yun is living a good life after leaving the Marquis' Mansion.
On the other hand, since entering the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Meimei has been either jealous of Aruo or fighting with her daughter-in-law Liu over money.
There is no trace of her former charm and beauty. She is even more ugly than the yellow-faced woman Yun used to be.
There is no harm without comparison. Looking at Yun, who was so glamorous and yet gentle and demure, he felt a sense of regret in his heart.
But on the surface, he could not show weakness, he had to maintain the dignity of a loyal marquis.
But Yun just ignored him and simply ignored him.
She picked up Shihua and walked towards Zhou's house with Changfeng, and knocked a few times on the side door next to the main gate.
After a while, a small window next to the side door opened, and a man who looked like a servant appeared.
Butler: "Are you the ones knocking on the door? What's the matter with you?"
Changfeng replied politely, "My name is Xiahou Changfeng, and this is my mother. Today, I am here to pay a visit to Mr. Zhou. This is a visiting card. Please help me, brother."
After saying that, Changfeng handed over the visiting card respectfully.
The servant saw that Changfeng was polite and good-looking, so he accepted the visiting card, but he also gave him a warning.
"Master Xiahou, I can deliver the visiting card for you. However, my master has not seen outsiders for many years, so he may not necessarily see you."
Chang Feng: "It's okay, it's okay. It's a good deed that you helped me pass the card."
The servant took the visiting card, nodded to Changfeng, closed the small window, and went back.
"Hehe, Xiahou Changfeng, you are an unknown boy, and you still want to be Mr. Zhou's disciple. You are really a toad wanting to eat swan meat. It's wishful thinking."
Xiahou Wenyuan and his son also followed behind Yun's mother and son. When they saw the servants comparing the posts for them, they felt jealous.
Especially Xiahou Zi'an, who became famous in the capital thanks to the famous article that Xiahou Zixuan passed on to him, and really thought that was his own ability.
He made a contemptuous expression to Changfeng, "I thought my brain was fine after a few days, but I started dreaming. Even if Mr. Zhou wanted to accept a disciple, he would only accept someone like me."
Xiahou Zian was certain that Changfeng's recovery was limited. He had heard that people like Changfeng, who had a brain disease and had been crazy before, would easily suffer a relapse of the disease if they were strongly stimulated.
He wanted to step on Changfeng and stimulate him. It would be best if he could stimulate him so much that his old illness would relapse and make him crazy again.
Mr. Zhou is a famous scholar of the time, nearly 80 years old. He once served as the Prince's Guardian, and was highly educated and virtuous, and was trusted by the late emperor. He served as the chief examiner of the imperial examinations for three consecutive terms.
Mr. Zhou was a good official when he was in office. After retiring, he devoted himself to studying and achieved great success.
His academic achievements were so outstanding that even the current Taifu (Yun's father) was slightly inferior to him.
Zhou's residence became a holy place in the hearts of students. If one could enter Zhou's residence and become his disciple, it would be a great honor for one's ancestors and one's future would be limitless.
Therefore, every day, students from all over the country came to see Mr. Zhou with visiting cards or letters of recommendation from famous teachers, like a flock of fish crossing the river.
However, Mr. Zhou seldom accepted disciples, on the grounds that he was old and had insufficient energy.
It just happens that someone with good fortune will be given some pointers.
But this was already a great opportunity for the students. What was even more amazing was that all the candidates he had instructed would eventually pass the imperial examination and become Jinshi.
Shihua felt unhappy when she saw her elder brother being bullied. She came out from behind Yun and looked at Xiahou Zian with clear eyes.
"Hey, hey, stealing someone else's manuscript, is that considered a thief?"
Yun and Changfeng did not expect Shihua to ask this question suddenly. The mother and son looked at each other, and Yun hurriedly pulled her back to protect her.
"What truth are you talking about, kid? How can you call him a thief? At most, at most, uh... a book thief."
"You, you guys..."
Xiahou Zi'an was furious. He stole Changfeng's manuscript and pretended to be a genius. Although no one had exposed him, he was still guilty and did not dare to refute under Shihua's gaze.
At this time, the doorman came back and returned the visiting card he had just taken in to Changfeng.
"Sir, please go home! My master doesn't want to see guests."
Yun was a little anxious after seeing this result. She hurried forward, wanting to fight for it again, but the doorman spoke first.
"Madam, please don't embarrass us. The master really doesn't want to see guests."
After saying that, he even closed the small window.
"Hahaha, I told you, a toad is just a toad, it doesn't even look at itself, it's just dreaming!"
Xiahou Zi'an was furious when Shihua hit him in the face. Seeing that Mr. Zhou rejected Changfeng, he couldn't help but gloat over his misfortune and add insult to injury.
Changfeng was not angry, and spoke in the same gentle voice as jade.
"Indeed, Changfeng is not talented and thinks too much. How can he compare to the famous Master Xiahou in the capital. Master Xiahou, if you are good enough, go ahead!"
After Changfeng said this, he stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.
The Yun family's mother and two children stood in a row and stepped aside to watch the performance of the father and son.
Xiahou Wenyuan finally got a point back in front of Yun. He intended to step on Yun again to make her sad.
He took out the visiting card in a high-profile manner and waved it proudly in front of the three people, as if to say, watch out, I'll open your eyes, I'll only perform this show once!
Without caring about the reactions of the three people, he walked straight over and knocked on the door.
The doorman of Zhou's house also opened a small window and asked.
Xiahou Wenyuan: "I am Xiahou Wenyuan, the Marquis of Loyalty, and I have brought my son to visit Mr. Zhou."
