"Oh, Painter Xiao Wang, what do you mean by this? I haven't finished painting this portrait yet!"

"How can there be any reason to leave before finishing the painting?" Seeing Wang Yugui about to leave, Mr. Zhang said hurriedly.

As he spoke, he winked at the two boys beside him.

The two servants understood and blocked Wang Yugui's way. Wang Yugui pretended not to see them. Suddenly, he turned around and smiled at Mr. Zhang San, "Please forgive me, Mr. San. I took some time to come here today!"

"I have to go to the Yamen to see Haizhi County soon. If I'm late, I'm afraid Capt. Liu will bring someone to your house to find me."

"Oh, Painter Xiao Wang, have you done something? The government is going to arrest you?" A boy interrupted curiously.

Another boy also laughed: "He must have committed a crime. If you are a good person, you can go to the Yamen if you have nothing to do, haha!"

"Cough, cough." After hearing this, Mr. Zhang coughed twice and glared at the boy.

He looked up at Wang Yugui again and smiled: "Painter Xiao Wang, what does Haizhi County want from you?"

"I don't know about this yet. I have to go to the Yamen to find out." Wang Yugui also laughed.

After saying that, he took another step forward and said to Mr. Zhang enthusiastically: "Sir, are you busy? If you are not busy, you can go to the Yamen with me!"

"Let's see what Haizhi County wants to do with me. Oh, I don't know what to do with it. I wonder if it was a mistake to be caught by Haizhi County. Oh!"

"If that's the case, Third Young Master, if you go with me, you might be able to say a few good words to me."

"Third Young Master, would you like to go with us?"

After saying that, he looked at Young Master Zhang sincerely with expectant eyes.

"Ah? Are you going to the Yamen together?" Mr. Zhang's face changed after hearing this, and he smiled awkwardly: "Painter Xiao Wang, are you kidding me?"

"Here, there is no one to invite people to go to the Yamen. If you have something to do, you should go by yourself."

"I don't like to go to that place in the Yamen!"

"Besides, I am also very busy. I have to go to Yihong Mansion for a drink soon. How can I have time to accompany you?"

Then he shouted at the two boys: "What are you two idiots doing standing there?"

"Don't you see the road blocking Painter Xiao Wang? Get out of the way quickly and send Painter Xiao Wang out!"

Then he smiled at Wang Yugui: "Painter Xiao Wang, since you have something important to do, please come back."

"Next time I'm free, I'll look for your portrait!"

"Okay, farewell. Third Young Master, stay here." Wang Yugui said, clasping his fists, and quickly left the Zhang Mansion with a boy.

After leaving the door of Zhang's Mansion, he immediately walked towards the county government office. When he arrived at the government office, he calmed down a little.

"Hey, Painter Xiao Wang, how come you have time to come to the Yamen to see me today?" Liu Captou saw Wang Yugui coming and came over to greet him with a smile.

Seeing that Wang Yugui was still carrying painting equipment, he asked again: "Painter Xiao Wang, are you coming to the Yamen to paint a portrait?"

"Hey, no." Wang Yugui sighed and looked at Mr. Liu: "I just came out of Zhang Yuanwai's mansion. Zhang Sangong, Zhang Yuanwai's son, asked me to paint his portrait..."

Wang Yugui told him about the portrait he had just made of Mr. Zhang's portrait in the Zhang Mansion.

"Captain Liu, tell me, what does Mr. Zhang mean?" Wang Yugui still feels confused.

, I don’t understand what Third Young Master Zhang’s intention was in inviting him to go today!

After hearing this, Capt. Liu frowned and said, "Oh, I saw Mr. Zhang's wife taking the female relatives of their residence to Shuijing Nunnery outside the city this morning."

"Is it because the female relatives at home are away and Mr. Zhang is so busy that he comes to you to paint portraits for fun?"

"Shui Jing'an? Are you talking about the nunnery outside the city?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly

Liu Captou nodded: "Yes, that is the largest nunnery in Wangtian County!"

"Why do the women of the Zhang family go to the nunnery?" Wang Yugui asked hurriedly.

Liu Captou smiled: "What else can I do? Just burn incense and worship Buddha!"

"Painter Xiao Wang, don't you know that Zhang Yuan's family is a big benefactor of Shuijing'an?"

"The old lady in her family felt that her family was not very prosperous. Two of her three grandsons had problems and one was not making progress. So from time to time, she took the female family members of the family to Shuijing Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha to pray for her family."

"Is there still such a thing? But, I heard from the Third Young Master Zhang that the old lady and his wife in their mansion have all gone to Huaizhou to visit relatives." Wang Yugui also laughed.

Rich families tend to pay more attention to things, but this family member is also different. Others go to the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, but his family goes to the nunnery to burn incense.

Liu Captou poured a cup of tea for Wang Yugui and said with a smile: "Hey, the old lady and madam are not here, isn't there the young lady here?"

"Hey, rich families have many rules and we don't understand them, haha!"

He looked at Wang Yugui and said, "So, you painted four portraits for that Third Young Master Zhang today for nothing?"

"Oh, yes, but it may not be for free. I will mention it to the old lady and my wife or Zhang Yuanwai next time I see them." Wang Yugui smiled

Then he said: "If that doesn't work, you can just mention it to Yuan Wai. If Lu Yuan Wai knows about it, you won't be afraid that Yuan Wai Zhang won't know about it, haha."

"Yeah, yeah, that's right, Painter Xiao Wang, you are right." After hearing this, Mr. Liu nodded and smiled.

Then he said: "You are still smart. Mr. Zhang is unreasonable, so don't bother with him. Talk to someone who is reasonable in his family."

"I estimate that if Zhang Yuanwai and the others find out about this, they will definitely send the money to your home."

"He can't afford to lose this person!"

As he spoke, he sighed: "Oh, Painter Xiao Wang, you still have more ideas."

"If it were me, I'd definitely fall out with him on the spot, haha!"

"Hey, Capt. Liu, you don't know, the Zhang Mansion gave me a weird feeling today. In other people's homes, I am a good man and will not suffer the immediate consequences." Wang Yugui smiled

Liu Captou nodded: "Yes, yes, that Third Young Master Zhang has a lot of bad reputations."

"You just lied to him about coming to see Haizhi County!"

Then he said with a smile: "Painter Wang, don't be afraid, I guess it'll be fine. It's just that the young master is bored at home and wants to entertain you for fun!"

"Just ignore him, don't panic!"

"Yeah, yeah, as soon as I entered this yamen and saw you, Mr. Liu, I was convinced, haha." Wang Yugui smiled

Liu Captou also smiled, and suddenly patted Wang Yugui on the shoulder: "Come on, Mr. Wang, let's go to the school yard to ride a horse for a while! I happen to be free today!"

"Hey, okay." Wang Yugui nodded, put away the painting tools, and followed Liu Captou to the school ground.
