These two boys really aren't worried about whether their grandma and sister have good taste.
As for feelings, those can be cultivated. Isn't being together just about living life together?
A good wife is one who earns money and spends it, and who doesn't argue, cause trouble, or make a fuss.
Love and romance are too much trouble.
Putting everything else aside, just looking at their brother-in-law's sycophantic behavior is exhausting for both of them.
Of course, since the person being fawned over was their own sister, they felt it was all perfectly reasonable.
If it were them, they'd probably shudder and think, "Forget it."
After attending the matchmaking event, the two brothers didn't get a single marriage proposal, nor did they meet a single girl who tried to flirt with them.
The very next day, the mansion welcomed a group of young gentlemen who came to see the paintings.
Naturally, we received a warm welcome.
Stepping into Zhao Qingni's study, one sees that all four walls are covered with his paintings, all of which are framed.
It was divided according to region and time.
Each one is a true reflection.
Besides appreciating Zhao Qingyi's painting skills, one is even more amazed by the beautiful scenery depicted in the painting.
Looking at each one, gentlemen, it's clear that Zhao Qingyi is truly a talented man. No wonder he was able to pass the imperial examination at such a young age.
The scenery is beautiful; these days, the scenery is beautiful everywhere.
After all, the greenery hasn't been damaged, and it feels pristine wherever you go.
The portraits are different; there are honest herdsmen on the grasslands, beauties with high noses and big eyes in the desert, and people from the southwest with high cheekbones.
There are also smiling faces of children from orphanages, ragged beggars, impoverished people, and newly built cities.
After seeing Zhao Qingbei's paintings, everyone seemed to experience the full spectrum of human emotions; it was truly remarkable.
Since Zhao Qingbei didn't know these people were coming to his house, the paintings framed on the walls were all his favorites.
As for Zhao Qingyang, no one is allowed to enter his workspace.
These people only know that the houses in the officials' residential area were designed by Zhao Qingyang, so they think he is very remarkable.
Guests are welcome, and when it's mealtime, there's no reason not to offer them a meal.
After the meal, these boys surprisingly became jealous of the two brothers.
This food is absolutely delicious! I wish their chef had such good skills.
Mo Jiuzhong said, "Brother Zhao, your food is so delicious. May I come and bother you again?"
Zhao Qingyang was stunned for a moment, then used serving chopsticks to put some food into Mo Jiuzhong's bowl.
"Eat more if you like it. Let's finish this meal first and then talk about the next one."
Although Mo Jiuzhong was a little unhappy that he didn't get the answer he wanted, he decided to eat it first, given the delicious sweet and sour pineapple pork in his bowl.
It smells so good, it tastes so good.
The others shared the same opinion.
I hadn't planned to stay for dinner at the Zhao residence today, but once I stepped inside, I didn't want to leave.
Luckily, everyone brought a small gift before they came, otherwise we would have felt embarrassed to accept their meal.
They each thought to themselves that next time they visited, they should bring more gifts, otherwise they wouldn't have the nerve to eat and drink at their house.
They all have the heart of a foodie.
During the day, the dogs in the Zhao family's backyard also roam freely.
At night, the gates between the yards for the dogs are left unlocked, so the dogs can roam freely between the front and back yards.
It barks incessantly at the slightest sound.
A great tool for guarding your home.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they were resting in the living room when they heard the dogs in the backyard barking incessantly.
Upon hearing this, the Zhao brothers, Qingyang and Qingyi, immediately stood up.
"Gentlemen, please excuse us, we have some matters to attend to and need to step out for a moment. Please have a seat."
After saying that, the two brothers headed straight for the back garden.
Huang and Zhao Qianci naturally headed towards the back garden.
No one knows their dog's temperament better than its owners.
If someone can call out like that, then someone must have come in.
When the group arrived at the back garden, they saw a little boy hanging from a tree in the Zhao family's back garden. Dogs were squatting under the tree, barking wildly at him.
Even the big dogs are already getting ready to stack themselves on top of each other.
With those leaps and bounds, even if they can't pull someone down from the tree, they'll definitely bite a few bloody holes in the kid.
Huang called to the dog.
"Why did that thing in the tree jump into my yard? What are its intentions?"
The boy in the tree was already so frightened that he was incoherent.
Tears streamed down his face; he was almost about to wet his pants.
"Madam, I'm innocent! I came to retrieve my young lady's kite."
Today, my young lady was flying a kite in the street when a gust of wind accidentally caught her kite in a tree in your mansion.
I should have gone to the front yard to inform your esteemed household, but I found it too troublesome. I figured I wasn't going to do anything wrong, so I just jumped over the wall and took the kite.
I never expected your household to have a dog.
"Please, Madam, have mercy and let these dogs move aside. I really can't hold on any longer."
Huang sneered, "You've got a point now. You're letting me get down, but you don't want the kite anymore?"
The boy glanced at where the kite had landed; it was at the top of a tree. In his current state, forget about climbing up and getting it down.
Even if you asked him to stand on flat ground, he would probably kneel down immediately; his legs are just too weak.
"Madam, my legs are weak. May I speak again later?"
Huang nodded.
"Alright, then take your time. Which household are you from? I'll personally escort you back later."
This statement seems even more terrifying than being surrounded by dozens of dogs.
"Madam, please don't, please don't go to all this trouble. I'm not worthy to do this."
If you really send me back, I'll probably be half dead; the master's beatings are very painful."
Huang was too lazy to listen to his nonsense.
Ever since the last time a man in black came in, Huang has stopped trusting anyone who dares to break in without permission.
How can someone who engages in petty theft and thievery be considered a good person?
While Huang was confronting the young man, Zhao Qingyi, at her grandmother's prompting, immediately returned to the front yard and asked the steward to report to the authorities.
It's better to have someone else handle the interrogation; the Zhao family should just focus on making arrests.
The person sent to report to the authorities returned quickly.
Just then, the soldiers from the Military Command came patrolling the streets.
Hearing that a thief had broken into the Zhao residence, the officers of the military garrison mourned for the petty thief.
You can enter anyone's house, but you can't just enter the Zhao residence.
Lord Zhao's family members are all formidable, possessing exceptional martial arts skills, and are not to be trifled with by a few petty thieves.
Why is everyone so pessimistic?
As a result, when they arrived at the back garden, the soldiers were almost frightened by the dogs in the Zhao family's back garden.
They were all fierce and strong-looking, and their eyes were terrifying.
When the officers from the military headquarters arrived, Huang gave an order, and the dogs all ran back to their dens, closing the doors behind them.
But the doghouse they built was truly enviable.
