The two little girls were whispering behind him, and Qin Yaoguang overheard them.

They are all good children who are polite and sensible.

Since Su Qing is older than Yan Jinyin, she took the "Yin" character from Yan Jinyin's name, so "Sister Yin" seems much more intimate than Yan's sister.

Yan Jinyin is the younger sister, so her surname is respected.

Be polite in your dealings.

Unbeknownst to her, Yan Jinyin had grown to this extent.

Zhao's little test is the most intuitive presentation of the results.

As expected, Yan Jinyin is the most diligent and hardworking among the five children. He has achieved such results in a short period of time. His learning ability is amazing.

The Su family mansion is naturally not as spacious as the Princess's Mansion.

But how could Zhao dare to let the two distinguished guests walk?

The sedan chair was arranged early in the morning. Everyone got on it and went through the hall and into the house to the back house.

As I approached the warm room where guests were received, I heard laughter and joyful chatter coming from inside.

At the thank-you banquet, Leyang and Chunning were the guests of honor.

In addition, Zhao also carefully selected the guests to accompany him, making sure that the host and guest were satisfied.

Qin Yaoguang walked into the warm room, the laughter stopped for a moment, and the ladies in the warm room stood up one after another to greet her.

"Please get up quickly."

Qin Yaoguang smiled and said, "We are all guests today, so please don't be so reserved."

Everyone then sat down again.

Many of the people present were women she knew, with whom she could talk to and get along fairly well.

The most obvious thing is that none of the playboy's relatives involved in the Plum Garden Incident appeared here.

Qin Yaoguang looked at Zhao and his smile deepened.

Who said the Su family doesn’t take sides?

It is clear that the balance is well achieved and no party is offended.

This Zhao is a mistress of the house who is good at dancing with the sleeves and is good at dealing with people.

The banquets held by noble women on weekdays were usually based on seasonal flowers, and they would hold various flower-viewing banquets.

Otherwise, you can set up a poetry club, taste delicious food, and the host can prepare some small games such as tossing pots and backgammon for everyone to have fun together.

These are small banquets. The hosts invite people with similar interests. There are not many people, and the purpose is mainly to maintain daily relationships.

As for other banquets with clear purposes, such as blind date banquets, wedding banquets, birthday banquets, etc. under various names, the scale is much larger.

Today's thank-you banquet is somewhere in between the two.

The Zhao family kept a low profile, with Qin Yaoguang and Chun Ning being the focus of everything.

Even the prepared entertainment activities are unique. There is no poetry writing or flower appreciating, only painting.

The reason is very simple. Who doesn’t know Princess Leyang’s stunning painting “Eight Immortals Celebrating a Birthday”?

Zhao catered to Qin Yaoguang's wishes and built a stage for him to display his strengths.

It's simply a top-notch textbook of flattery.

This is much better than verbal flattery and praise.

Qin Yaoguang thought so in her heart, but she couldn't refuse Zhao's kindness.

Da Jing has no internet access, and if she wants to clear her name, she needs not only reputation among the common people, but also word of mouth from the noble ladies.

This is a conspiracy.

Even though he knew the other party's intentions, he would still gladly accept Zhao's kind arrangement.

"Your Highness is amazing. Today we are truly enlightened!"

"A few days ago, I went to the palace to pay my respects to the Empress Dowager, and was fortunate enough to see the birthday painting of Her Highness. It was truly an eye-opener."

Under everyone's expectant gaze, Chun Ning smiled and handed the pen to Qin Yaoguang: "Royal sister, please draw whatever you want."

Just draw something and shock them.

This intention was clearly revealed in her eyes.

Qin Yaoguang took the paintbrush, said a few polite words, and then picked up the brush and prepared to start painting on the prepared rice paper.

To be honest, ink painting is most suitable for display at this time.

The painting process takes a short time and can be completed in one go.

But obviously, what everyone expected was her painting skills using modern sketching techniques.

Sketching is a technical job. It took her more than a month to complete the painting "Eight Immortals Celebrating a Birthday".

After thinking about it, Qin Yaoguang decided to find another way.

She picked up the brush and looked at Zhao, smiling, "Madam Su, can I draw a portrait for you?"

Of course Zhao agreed with great joy.

However, as Qin Yaoguang wrote on the rice paper, everyone became more and more confused.

Is this painting really of Madam Su?

Why do they look so different?

But if you say they don't look alike, they are very similar. The clothes she is wearing are exactly what Zhao is wearing today, and she is holding the hand of a little girl with dimples on her apple face, who is obviously Su Qing.

It was another style of painting that they had never seen before.

The more confused the crowd was, the more focused they looked.

That’s right, Qin Yaoguang drew a Q version of Zhao, holding the Q version of Su Qing.

She paints very quickly.

Q version is something that is easy for her to do with her solid foundation in art, and there is no need for a draft.

With just a few strokes, the general outlines of the two people in the picture were quickly sketched out.

It was the first time that the female members of the family saw a creature with a big head and a small body, and the more they looked at it, the more they found it strange.

Qin Yaoguang did not continue to refine the painting. Instead, she changed her paintbrush and mixed several types of pigments with clean water. She then painted a plum tree proudly blooming in the snow.

Chun Ning was used to seeing her sister painting, but this was the first time he saw her painting in this style, so novel and interesting.

After painting the environment with a few simple strokes, Qin Yaoguang began to refine the two characters in the main body of the picture.

Under the plum tree, Zhao held little Su Qing's hand and picked a red plum petal from her hair.

Little Su Qing looked up at his mother with trust.

Both of them had smiles on their faces, and the warm interaction between mother and son could be felt across the screen.

Everyone watched as the characters she painted gradually became more vivid and full of spirit, and they didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing Qin Yaoguang's painting inspiration.

"All right."

Qin Yaoguang finally added a touch of pink on little Su Qing's lips, and combined with the highlight position reserved earlier, the little mouth of the character in the painting immediately became moist.

Since the materials were limited and there was no highlighter pen, she used the method of reserving highlights.

This painting was done using traditional Chinese painting tools to create a Q-version cartoon.

This was Qin Yaoguang's first time trying to combine these two techniques.

She put down her pen and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad."

"It's more than good!"

Chun Ning was the first to shout, praising repeatedly: "Royal sister, how did you come up with this drawing? It's so cute!"

"Yes, yes!"

"Will Her Royal Highness the Princess accept a disciple?"

Facts have proved that the five-head-tall Q-version man is popular among people from ancient times to the present, both at home and abroad, and quickly won the hearts of everyone present.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room was extremely warm.

Su Qing was so excited that he held Yan Jinyin's hand and kept asking questions, his envy was beyond words.

"Sister Yin, when you are at home on weekdays, does His Highness also paint for you? You are so happy!"

Yan Jinyin, who is reserved by nature, was also infected by her enthusiasm and her cheeks blushed slightly. She replied in a low voice: "My mother often paints at home, but this style of painting is the first time I have seen it."

Just as the room was getting lively, the thick door curtain of the warm room was lifted by a maid from the outside, and a handsome young man in a moon-white cloud brocade robe with narrow sleeves walked in. His temperament was as elegant and pure as snow.
