Chapter 1603 Open-Minded

Qingxue was a little surprised by Mr. Gu's straightforwardness. She stood aside and waited for Mr. Gu to drink the soup, then took the bowl and went to the uncle's table to take the soup bowl.

After Gu Sheng drank the soup, there was a warm current in his body. His body that had been cold just now warmed up, and his complexion improved a little. He was grateful to the Zhouhou Mansion. His illness was not helped by Mr. Zhou, and he is still lying at home now.

He had been looking forward to the painting building competition for a long time, but he almost missed it. Thinking of this, Gu Sheng felt chills in his heart.

Zhulan was watching upstairs, she was very surprised, "This Mr. Gu trusts our Hou Fu very much."

Dow, "Yeah, this is an entrance thing."

Qingxue, "I didn't hesitate at all when I drank the soup."

Zhulan's mood improved, which shows that Gu Sheng recognizes Zhou Houfu's favor, and Mr. Gu will repay this favor in the future.

The box where the fourth prince is, the fourth prince knows Qingxue, "How does the old lady bring soup to Gu Sheng?"

Changzhong explained his relationship with Gu Sheng, he deliberately hid Yuwen, but pointed out Zhuo Guyu, and finally said: "My mother only listened to me, and she just made soup for my brother-in-law and sent it to me. bowl."

After hearing this, the fourth prince looked at Zhuo Guyu, "Why did the Duke's Mansion bring the doctor there?"

Zhuo Guyu is very concerned about Gu Sheng, knowing who helped Gu Sheng, now listening to the fourth prince's questioning, it is not false, "I am arguing with Mr. Gu, so naturally I pay attention to Mr. Gu, knowing that Mr. Gu is seriously ill and wants to help One or two, I didn't expect to be late."

The fourth prince nodded, but he had a lot of thoughts in his mind. Gu Sheng was obviously targeted. He had a bad impression of Zhuo Guyu, and he had preconceived notions. He didn't like the Yong'an government.

Zhuo Guyu squeezed his palms, although he got close to the fourth prince, the fourth prince always treated him indifferently, took a deep breath, he was not in a hurry.

Yuwen called Yatou, and Yatou's eyes widened when she heard this. Seeing the magistrate blinking, she quickly turned around and went out.

Zoya didn't hear clearly, "Is there something the county magistrate needs to do?"

Yuwen didn't like Zoya, even if she hid it well, she couldn't hide her superior attitude, "My sister didn't even ask, so what capacity are you asking me?"

Zoya said dryly, "I thought we were friends."

Yuwen pointed to herself, "Why don't I know? Speaking of which, I have only met you once. According to you, all the ladies in the capital are my friends."

Zoya has been praised when she went out recently. It was the first time someone didn't give her face. She still believed in her future sister-in-law. She thought that sister-in-law should let her, her eyes were red, "You bully people."

Yuwen, "To be honest, I'm a bully, so I've bullied too many people."

Zoya,

"."

Yudie cleared her throat, "Yuwen, Miss Zhuo is still young."

Yuwen was even more surprised, "If you are young, you will be given up. Speaking of which, besides Yujiao, am I the youngest in the box?"

Zhuo Guyu took a deep breath and stood up, "The result is coming, we brothers and sisters should go back too, thank you Fourth Prince for the refreshments."

Fourth prince, "Yes."

Zhuo Guyu nodded to everyone, and then left with Zhuo Ya.

Yuwen raised her eyebrows, she is a good brother, but it's a pity that their brother and sister are too purposeful.

The fourth prince smiled and said, "Cousin, I'm young too, can my cousin give me a painting for auction later?"

Yuwen, ".OK"

She knew that her cousin was not called for nothing, and she was waiting for her here, so she was also a golden baby in the eyes of the fourth prince!

With a sound of drums, the shopkeeper already had the list in his hand, "The results of this year's competition have been announced, and the villain reads from the back to the front. The fifty finalists will all be rewarded with a drawing building regardless of their ranking."

Speaking of which, the rewards were brought up, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and the most valuable thing is paint, these things are the most indispensable in the painting building.

The tense moment came. Gu Sheng heard that he was in the forty-five. Although he was regretful, he accepted it well. This year, because the applicants for the exam gathered in the capital, there were too many people who drew from elementary school. He was born in the middle of the road to be shortlisted. is lucky.

Upstairs, Zhulan kept staring at Gu Sheng's micro-expression, Gu Sheng was disappointed and quickly accepted it calmly, this character, Zhulan would like to praise, Gu Sheng is open-minded, he will be promising sooner or later.

Dow was puzzled, "Are you paying too much attention to Mr. Gu?"

Zhulan asked, "Is there any?"

"Yes, you seldom stare at your eldest son-in-law, but always stare at Mr. Gu, don't you want to recruit a poor grandson-in-law?"

Zhulan's eyes widened, "Young master Gu is eighteen, and Yuwen is not yet ready, so I don't care about it."

Tao felt relieved, "I'm not saying poor sons-in-law are bad, there are quite a few poor sons-in-law in the capital, but there are really few who live well."

Zhulan has also heard that there are more chickens and dogs jumping around. It is not easy to be a scholar in a poor family. Some people can pretend to be a lifetime for the future, and some people are white-eyed. Not to mention the family is not right. Trouble.

Dow gave another example, "The case that was just tried not long ago, relying on the power of the Yue family, the in-law's family secretly robbed the daughters of the people and blackmailed the wealthy businessman. The capital has been discussing for a long time."

Of course Zhulan also heard about it. At the time of the trial, the poor son-in-law wanted to kill someone to silence him.

Soon the ranking reached Jiang Sheng, and Jiang Sheng lived up to expectations and won the first place. There were even some comments from the masters, Jiang Sheng had already reached the realm of a master, etc.

Anyway, Jiang Sheng won the first place, good words don't cost money, on the other hand, if he doesn't get a good ranking, Jiang Sheng today will become a joke. If you admire Jiang Sheng more in the past, you will belittle him more in the future.

Naturally, some people were dissatisfied, "Who knows if it's because of Zhou Hou, who doesn't know that Jiang Juren's father-in-law is Zhou Hou."

Jiang Sheng's face remained unchanged, and he picked up his painting, "Say I can, but don't slander my father-in-law. The paintings are here. Those who come here today are those who know how to paint. Jiang is not afraid of comments."

Jiang Sheng was magnanimous, and everyone's initial thoughts disappeared again, and they were not afraid to watch if they had real skills.

Still unconvinced, Jiang Sheng stepped forward, and Jiang Sheng didn't intend to stop him at all. There were the second and third paintings beside him. After seeing the paintings, he stepped off the stage with a face of shame, and no one dared to go on stage again.

In the end, the first place deserves its name, Jiang Sheng rolled up the painting carefully, the rich and powerful who came to see the excitement today are in a hurry, they are still waiting for the auction!

The shopkeeper was also dumbfounded, "Mr. Jiang, isn't this painting for sale?"

Jiang Sheng, "I promise my father-in-law that this painting will be given to him."

Tao Shi was sour after hearing this, "You are really blessed. Your son is promising, and your son-in-law is so filial. After today, your son-in-law will become famous, and his paintings will be more sought after today. A painting may be worth a thousand taels."

Zhulan felt beautiful in her heart, she is an ordinary person, she said with emotion, "That's why you need to have a skill."

Dow said sourly, "Which of the children of the aristocratic family has not drawn since elementary school, it depends on the talent."

The subsequent auction was very lively, Zhulan didn't participate, so she wouldn't buy the painting today, and now the buying price is at least 20% higher than usual, Gu Sheng's painting was also auctioned, and it was sold for fifty taels.

After the sale was over, the guests of the painting building left one after another, and Jiang Sheng left later. The owner of the painting building asked Jiang Sheng to draw a spring picture. Today, because the painting building became famous, Jiang Sheng happily agreed.

Zhulan was supported by Xuemei, and she could still feel Xuemei's excitement. When the group left the painting building, Zhulan looked to one side and stopped.

Changzhong accompanied his niece without a word, and when his mother came out, he said, "Let's go home."

Yuwen waved at Mr. Gu, "You're welcome."
