Shen Nian was bewildered by the look. It was just a casual remark, why was there such a big reaction?
Xia Tian looked away feeling a little guilty, "I just took a look from a distance, and I didn't see it very clearly."
Shen Nian didn't think too much about it and changed the subject to talk about other things.
Xia Tian also breathed a sigh of relief, she thought Shen Nian had discovered something!
I have been hesitating whether I should tell him now that Mr. Xuanying is myself.
Mu Feng and Ning Xue, who were sitting in the front driving the carriage, heard the conversation between the two people in the carriage. They looked at each other and quickly looked away. Both of them felt a little guilty.
After returning to the Wu'an Marquis Mansion, Xia Tian went straight back to Jinglan Garden.
Chen Nian also took Mu Feng back to Lingyun Pavilion.
After sitting in the study for a while, he called Mu Feng in and said, "Go to the Yayi Studio that Master Wen Er mentioned and ask about Mr. Xuanying."
"Master, why do you want to inquire about Mr. Xuanying?" Mu Feng was confused. Why did the master think of inquiring about Mr. Xuanying? Wouldn't he find out something?
"I want to order a painting."
"Oh." Mu Feng was confused. What should he do? He had promised his wife that he would not tell the master about her identity without her consent.
Seeing Mu Feng agreed but stood still, Shen Nian frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Why don't you go?"
"I'll go right away." Mu Feng didn't dare to delay and quickly slipped out.
I walked out the door, wiped the cold sweat from my head, and thought about what to do as I walked out.
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and thought, yes, Mr. Xuanying is the lady, he can just go and ask the lady directly!
See what the lady says. If she agrees, tell the master. If she disagrees, say she didn't hear about it.
After figuring it out, Mu Feng rushed to Jinglan Garden.
Xia Tian was sitting on the kang in the warm room, drinking the red date and lotus seed soup brought by Ningxiang, listening to Ningxue telling Ningxiang and Cuiyun about what she had seen and heard in Wen Yibo's mansion.
At this time, a little maid called out from outside the door, "Sister Ningxiang."
Ningxiang paused, then hurried out to see, "Here I am, what's going on?"
The little maid pointed towards the entrance of Jinglan Garden and said, "Someone is looking for Madam."
Ningxiang saw that it was Mu Feng, so she went in to tell Xia Tian that Mu Feng had arrived.
Xia Tian put down the bowl and said, "Let Mu Feng come in."
Mu Feng came in and bowed to her, "Madam, I have something to report." After saying that, he looked at Cuiyun and the others in the room.
Cuiyun and the others quickly found an excuse to go out, leaving only Ningxiang and Ningxue with them.
"What is it? Can you tell me now?"
"Madam, the master asked me to go to Yayixuan to ask about Mr. Xuanying, saying that he wants to order a painting." Mu Feng whispered and emphasized, "Madam, I didn't tell the master that the lady is Mr. Xuanying, so I wanted to ask for advice."
Xia Tian thought for a while, then looked at Mu Feng and said, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you. I'll go talk to your master myself."
There's nothing to hide anyway.
Xia Tian got off the kang, went to the bedroom, took out a scroll from the box, found a long box to put it in, and took it to Lingyun Pavilion.
Mu Feng and Ning Xiang followed behind.
When they reached the study door, Mu Feng announced first, "Master, the Madam is here."
"Come in."
Hearing his master letting him in, Mu Feng opened the door, lifted the curtain, and let Xia Tian in. He and Ningxiang stood guard outside the door.
Shen Nian saw Xia Tian coming in and turned around from behind the desk, "Why are you here?"
"I heard from Mu Feng that you were looking for Mr. Xuanying, so I came." Xia Tian smiled.
Shen Nian was puzzled, "Is there something wrong?"
“No.” Xia Tian said as he handed the box in his hand to Chen Nian, “This is for you.”
Shen Nian took it, put it on the table, opened the box confusedly, took out the scroll inside, and then looked up at her.
"Open it." Xia Tian smiled.
Shen Nian held one side of the scroll with one hand and slowly opened it bit by bit with the other hand, and the first thing that was revealed was his face.
Shen Nian was shocked. Is this a painting of himself? He quickly unfolded the rest of the painting, and the whole person in the painting appeared before him.
It was indeed himself, and the painting showed him as he was in Liujia Village.
He looked up at Xia Tian, then lowered his head and read it carefully from beginning to end. Until he saw the signed seal, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief and looked at Xia Tian for a long time without coming back to his senses.
He finally understood what Xia Tian meant when he came in and said, "I heard you were looking for Mr. Xuanying, so I came here."
It turns out that the so-called Mr. Xuanying is herself.
After a long pause, he finally found his voice and asked, "Did you draw this? Are you Mr. Xuanying?"
Xia Tian proudly straightened her back and replied with a smile, "Why? Don't you think so?"
When Shen Nian saw her arrogant expression, she became more certain, "Likely. It's just a little unexpected."
Seeing that Chen Nian didn't blame him for hiding it from him, Xia Tian smiled and explained, "I didn't want to tell you so early. I was planning to give you a surprise, but now that you want to find Mr. Xuanying, I have no choice but to tell you in advance."
"It's really a surprise." He really didn't expect this girl to have this skill, mainly because she had never demonstrated it before, and he didn't know how she learned this skill.
She seems to have more and more secrets!
Then, thinking of the paintings she had sold, she asked, "Why didn't you just tell me you needed money?"
After saying that, she felt something was wrong. She must be too embarrassed to ask him for it. She turned and walked to the desk, took out a small seal from the secret compartment below and handed it to Xia Tian, "Take this. When you need money in the future, go directly to the bank to get it."
