After hearing the words, Third Master Ren finally looked better.

Xiao Jingxi smiled slightly, then looked at the ink and wash landscape that Master Ren had just painted, and said, "Father seems to have forgotten to sign the name?"

Master Ren San nodded, got up and went out to get his private seal.

Xiao Jingxi then asked Ren Yaoqi, "Why did you come here with your mother?"

Ren Yaoqi glanced at her father's back, and said in a low voice, "Just now, the servant girl went over to tell us that you and your father had a quarrel in the study, and your father broke something in a fit of anger. My mother and I were worried, so we came over to have a look."

Xiao Jingxi couldn't help laughing, looked at Ren Yaoqi and said softly, "In your heart, I'm just so inconsiderate? Even my father-in-law won't give in?"

Ren Yaoqi also lowered her head and smiled, and then asked: "Then what happened just now? It can't be that the whole yard is deaf, right?"

Xiao Jingxi seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Ren Yaoqi with a very gentle smile on his face: "I played chess with Mr. Yue Zhang before, and the bet we set was each of our 'most cherished things'."

Ren Yaoqi didn't realize Xiao Jingxi's deep meaning for a moment, she frowned and thought about it: "My father's most cherished thing is the three ancient paintings in the drawer under his desk." She didn't think her father was a People who will lose their bets.

Xiao Jingxi sighed, quietly took Ren Yaoqi's hand, squeezed it lightly, and said with a smile: "Actually, I know that my father will definitely not be able to win me, so I want to ask him for money... ...you, not his three ancient paintings."

Ren Yaoqi was stunned, her face flushed, and she even forgot to take her hand away from Xiao Jingxi.

Xiao Jingxi stared intently at Ren Yaoqi, "So when he wanted to find out the painting and give it to me, I declined. Father, he was not satisfied with this, and asked me if I just thought he couldn't afford to lose, and then I was careless He knocked over the brush washer that was on the side of the desk. It may be because of this that people outside who heard the movement misunderstood."

Ren Yaoqi glanced in the direction where Master Ren left, and then pulled her hand pretending to be calm, and Xiao Jingxi let it go gently.

"When I saw my father insisting, I said, I thought which one of his masterpieces he cherished most, so I asked for one of his paintings, and my father thought about it and agreed."

At this time, Master Ren's footsteps had already come this way, so Ren Yaoqi stopped whispering to Xiao Jingxi, and the two of them sat upright.

When Mr. Ren came in with his own seal, he still looked suspiciously at his daughter and son-in-law who were sitting upright, and then he sat down at the table and stamped his private seal on his paintings.

At this time, someone outside reported: "Master, the uncle is here, and the horse is almost at the main entrance."

Master Ren said: "After the elder uncle comes in, let him go to the main room first, and the second uncle and I will come right away."

The people outside quickly responded.

Master Ren said to Xiao Jingxi: "Let's go there first, let's put this painting here to dry, and take it with you when you leave."

Xiao Jingxi naturally had no reason why he shouldn't.

Master Ren looked at him a few times, and commented reservedly: "You are good at chess, if you have a chance, you can play another game with me." As he said that, Master Ren glanced at his daughter with some dissatisfaction, "When Yaoyao was at home, she didn't love her. Play chess with me." His tone was really complaining.

Ren Yaoqi blinked, looked at Master Ren, and felt that she was really wronged. Isn't her father's favorite thing to do is writing and drawing? She is with me! As for playing chess, her father doesn't like her letting him play chess, and if he always loses chess, it will definitely affect his old man's mood, so Ren Yaoqi doesn't play chess with her father very often.

Xiao Jingxi was knowledgeable, and quickly smiled and said: "From now on, as long as father is free, my son-in-law is willing to accompany him."

Ren Yaoqi cast a sideways glance at Xiao Jingxi, thinking: You speak as if you are very free! When my father asks you to come and you can't come, let's see what you say.

Xiao Jingxi didn't say anything to the suspicious look in the eyes of his predecessor Yaoqi, but still responded with a gentle smile.

Master Ren went out first: "Let's go to the main room first."

Knowing that Thunder is coming, Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jingxi didn't want to delay, and went out with Master Ren.

Lei Ting's visit to Ren's house today must be because of Xiao Jingxi taking Ren Yaoqi back home. Ren Yaohua is not confinement yet, so naturally she can't go back to her mother's house. I thought that Lei Ting was busy with things, so he definitely didn't have time, so Li and Ren Shimin didn't send anyone to inform Lei's family, because he didn't want Lei Ting to come by himself.

The people serving outside the study were a little worried at first, but when they saw Master Ren coming out, there was no anger on his face, and the second son-in-law who came out behind Master Ren still had such a good-looking smile, and even Master Ren would occasionally turn his back on his face. Turn around and say a few words with Second Young Master, the atmosphere is very peaceful.

After everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Ren Yaoqi took everyone's gaze into his eyes, and then took another look at Xiao Jingxi, and couldn't help but feel a little funny. She was also concerned about chaos before, otherwise how could she believe that Xiao Jingxi would make her father angry? If he could really quarrel with her father, then he wouldn't be the Second Young Master Xiao.

However, Ren Yaoqi's joyful mood was slightly discounted when she saw Ren Yaoying who happened to come out of the main room after leaving the cross courtyard. You can't tell how much you hate or dislike some people, but when she appears in front of you, it's definitely not a happy thing.

Sure enough, Ren Yaoying just raised her head and glanced this way, then quickened her pace and walked over. When the maidservants following her saw Mr. Ren and the others, they secretly yelled inwardly. Seeing that Ren Yaoying really ran towards them, her face turned green, but the second son-in-law was also there, so it was really hard for them to blatantly catch up and arrest Ren Yaoying back forcibly. In this case, the Ren family's face will not look good.

So after the women looked at each other, they followed Yaoying closely, and whispered, "Miss Nine, Madam tells you to go back to your room now, you have to go back with the servants."

Ren Yaoying said: "I'll go and say hello to my father and then I'll go back, and my second brother-in-law, it's very impolite to ignore it."

So Ren Yaoying ran to Master Ren, Xiao Jingxi and Ren Yaoqi smoothly.

Ren Yaoqi stood there without moving, her face was calm, and the usual smile was still on her lips.

Ren Yaoying came forward to salute Master Ren, the posture of bending her knees and bowing her head seemed to have been practiced thousands of times, they were all so perfect, with a soft and delicate beauty.

Master Ren frowned: "Didn't your mother let you rest in the house? Why did you run out?"

Ren Yaoying lowered her head and said softly: "Daughter knows that Fifth Sister is coming home today, so she came out to greet Fifth Sister and Fifth Sister's husband."

Master Ren couldn't find anything wrong with Ren Yaoying's words, so he didn't speak.

Ren Yaoying's eyes stopped on Xiao Jingxi's face, and she couldn't help being stunned, especially when she saw the smile on Xiao Jingxi's face, she blushed and lowered her head, saluting somewhat cautiously: "This is fifth brother-in-law Right? My sister is being polite."

Master Ren said: "See you, Li, you should go back to your room first."

Unexpectedly, Ren Yaoying glanced at Ren Yaoqi hesitantly and timidly, and said, "Fifth Sister, would you help me with what I said before?" It became popular, and even Ren Yaoqi was amazed.

"If you don't want to help me, my sister will have no choice but to die. My sister really doesn't want to marry the master of the He family. If the family insists on forcing me to marry, I will only have a three-foot white silk for the rest of my life." When she arrived here, Ren Yaoying's face showed a look of determination, she seemed to be very steadfast, plus her originally weak and beautiful face, it was easy to win people's sympathy.

However, none of the people present spoke.

Ren Yaoying's gaze secretly swept across the faces of the three of them.

Master Ren's complexion was also a little ugly. He naturally didn't want his daughter to marry a bad old man to embarrass him, but this marriage has been settled by the elders of the Ren family, and it was Ren Yaoying who was willing to stay with the elders of the Ren family. Stay home.

Ren Yaoqi had a smile that was not a smile, just like every time Ren Yaoying used self-righteous means in front of her before, as if no dirty thoughts could escape her eyes. Although Ren Yaoqi doesn't have Ren Yaohua's always superior publicity, but when she looks at people with this kind of eyes, it makes people feel more guilty and ashamed than Ren Yaohua's knife-like eyes.

Xiao Jingxi just glanced at Ren Yaoying when she appeared, with a calm and breezy look, as if what he saw was just a cloud that suddenly broke into his eyes. His attention was never on Ren Yaoying at all.

Ren Yaoying changed into a mournful expression, and smiled wryly: "My sister just wants to get rid of this marriage. If my sister can help me, I... I am willing to never marry in my life. From then on, the wooden fish in blue will always be by the Buddha's side."
