After lunch, Xiao Yeyang left in a hurry with Defu.

"I don't know what happened? I called Yang boy back in such a hurry." Grandma Gu was a little worried.

Daohua smiled and said: "Mother-in-law, it shouldn't be an important matter. I saw Xiao Yeyang looked quite relaxed when he left."

Hearing this, Granny Gu nodded, then looked at Daohua with a smile and said, "You girl really understands Mr. Yang."

Daohua frowned: "That's right, after all, I have known him for so many years. I don't know everything about that guy's temperament, but I can understand him very well."

Old Mrs. Yan said angrily: "You said you were fat and you still breathed!"

Daohua muttered: "That's right." Seeing her grandmother staring at her, she quickly changed the subject with a smile, "Grandma, mother-in-law, master, you have been sitting here for a long time in the morning. I think you are tired too, go and take a nap.

."

Gu Jian nodded: "This man is old and his body is not very strong anymore. After sitting for a long time, my back hurts."

Immediately, the three old people went to their respective rooms to rest.

After they fell asleep, Daohua took Wang Maner down the mountain and went to Zhuangzi.

When Qin Xiaoliu saw Daohua, he quickly dropped what he was doing and followed him: "Girl, I already have a good idea of ​​the Zhuangzi you told me to look at before."

"The land here in Ningmen Mansion is cheap. Many places are vast and sparsely populated. It seems that several villages are quite big. The smallest ones have two to three thousand acres, and the largest ones have tens of thousands of acres."

Daohua pondered for a moment: "How is the quality of the fields and the irrigation conditions?"

Qin Xiaoliu: "The Zhuangzi I looked at are all close to the river. The fields are not as good as those in Xingzhou, but they are pretty good." As he said this, he took out several simple pictures of Zhuangzi from his pocket.

He held the rice flower in his hand and looked at it, and finally looked at Qin Xiaoliu: "Brother Xiaoliu, we have bought from Zhuangzi a few times. I believe in your eyesight, so I won't go and check it myself this time."

Qin Xiaoliu said quickly: "Don't worry, girl, I have repeatedly checked these Zhuangzi, and they are all better than others."

Daohua nodded, and finally selected two farms, a large farm of 10,000 acres, and a medium-sized farm of more than 3,000 acres.

"This 10,000-acre farm will be called Wheat Farm in the future. Please make preparations and plant winter wheat after the autumn harvest."

Qin Xiaoliu nodded.

Daohua said again: "This small village is called a vegetable farm. Send someone to sort it out. I will plant tomatoes next year."

Qin Xiaoliu knows about tomatoes. Nowadays, all the greenhouses here in Taohua Village are growing them. They are so red and beautiful. I heard that they are a new vegetable species introduced from abroad.

"Okay, go and do your work, I'm fine here."

After that, Daohua and Mrs. Yan stayed for two more days. On August 11th, Mrs. Li sent someone to say that on August 13th, the Xiangyang Glaze Shop in the city would be opened. Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu were coming. They and Gu

Mother-in-law, Gu Jian returned home after saying goodbye.

......

The first thing Daohua did when she returned to Fucheng was to find a calligraphy and painting shop and frame the portrait that Xiao Yeyang had painted for her. On the day Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu came over, they saw the framed portrait in her bedroom.

.

"Oh my God, Yiyi, did you find some lady to draw a portrait of you? This is too lifelike!"

Dong Yuanyao leaned in front of the portrait and stared at it for a while, then pulled Daohua and said, "Tell me quickly, I want the painting to hang in the room too."

Su Shiyu also looked over curiously.

Daohua smiled and said: "The lady was painted by Xiao Yeyang. That guy's painting skills are really good."

"What?!"

Dong Yuanyao and Su Shiyu both opened their eyes.

Daohua was speechless: "Why are you so surprised?"

Dong Yuanyao was silent for a while and looked at Daohua without hesitation: "You...you..."

Seeing her like this, Daohua looked puzzled: "What are you doing? You speak hesitantly. This is not like your style."

Dong Yuanyao took a breath: "How could you let a foreigner paint your portrait? Do you know how...what an outrageous thing this is!"

This time it was Daohua's turn to be surprised: "Didn't you just draw a portrait after me? Why is it so out of line?"

Dong Yuanyao looked around the room and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that there were only the three of them. However, he still lowered his voice and said: "You don't even think about it. If you want to draw a person realistically, you have to observe carefully. Look.

Looking at your painting, or the whole body painting, what do you want me to say about you?"

Daohua was stunned, and it took her a long time to understand the meaning of Dong Yuanyao's words, and immediately said: "You have dirty thoughts. When Xiao Yeyang was painting, he didn't even raise his head a few times."

After hearing this, Dong Yuanyao quit and immediately started arguing with Daohua, while Su Shiyu, who was always delicate and thoughtful, had his eyes flashing slightly.

She also knows a little bit about painting. She can paint a person well without raising her head. How familiar is this person?

Daohua said angrily: "Xiao Yeyang gave it to my grandmother and they also painted it. According to you, wouldn't he..." Daohua couldn't say what happened next.

Dong Yuanyao was helpless: "That's different. The elders are the elders, and you are you."

Daohua: "What's the difference? Aren't they all human?"

Dong Yuanyao: "The emotional sustenance is different..."

"Yuan Yao!"

Su Shiyu suddenly interrupted Dong Yuanyao, and stretched out her hand to tap her forehead: "Girl, why are your words getting more and more outrageous?" After speaking, she looked at Daohua again.

"Sister Yan, don't listen to her nonsense. It's just a painting, not that much. But if you want to paint in the future, it's best to find a female husband."

Daohua frowned, looked at their expressions, and nodded.

Dong Yuanyao muttered: "I'm doing this for Yi Yi's own good." As he said that, he quickly looked at Daohua, "By the way, no one else knows about this painting, right?"

Daohua: "My grandmother knows."

Dong Yuanyao: "Where are the others?"

Daohua: "It's just been framed, and I haven't had time to show it to my mother yet."

Dong Yuanyao breathed a sigh of relief: "Don't let my aunt and others know about the painting, otherwise, you will definitely be scolded."

Daohua didn't believe it: "Isn't it just a painting? Is it so serious?" After saying that, she looked directly at Su Shiyu. She felt that Su Shiyu was more credible.

Su Shiyu nodded.

Dong Yuanyao: "Of course it's serious. Think about it for yourself, what are the portraits of men and women in plays and storybooks? Generally speaking, when our daughter's family wants to paint, we either hire a female concubine or...

...Either it's my husband's painting, so what's the deal with the outside man's painting?"

Daohua was silent. She didn't expect that drawing a picture could bring up so many things.

Dong Yuanyao looked at the rice flowers, thought for a while and said: "I know that you and the young prince have a good relationship, but...there are differences between men and women, and now that you are older, you can no longer be as innocent as you were when you were young.

Avoided."

"By the way, old lady, you'd better inform me, so as not to accidentally let something slip and cause trouble. Your family is not very peaceful."

Daohua nodded, then let out a long sigh.
