Department of Painting Shenhao

Chapter 41 Gu Qingxia's Day (for further reading)
The next day, noon.

A small truck pulled the goods under the employer's "thousands and thousands of orders" all the way, carefully passed through the urban area, went to the ancient town outside Gusu City, and drove on the stone road next to the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Boom-"

The pickup truck bumped a bit when the road was uneven.

"Master, drive slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

"Beauty, I'm already slow enough, don't worry, your goods will be fine."

Gu Qingxia's heart was bleeding, and she was deeply afraid that something might happen to the baby.

"Qingxia, you are back." The owner of the oil-paper umbrella stall next to the ancient street greeted the Hanfu lady who was the co-driver of the pickup truck.

"Aunt Liu, I'm back to play for two days."

Along the way, many neighbors greeted Gu Qingxia.

Gu Qingxia's hometown is Sunshine Village, Qin City, but he grew up in this picturesque Jiangnan water town. For these reasons, she likes the country style very much, and she is a very famous little fairy in this generation.

Of course, a bigger part of the reason why everyone loves her is Gu Qingxia's family, her grandfather is very prestigious in the town.

Well, the showdown is over, Gu Qingxia's father is a son-in-law.

The pickup truck drove up the mountain through the ancient street, and stopped at the entrance of an antique courtyard halfway up the mountain.

Rows of bamboo are planted on both sides of the gate, symbolizing the integrity of the family.

"Beauty, this is your home. It's so big, it looks like half of the mountain belongs to your home."

The master got out of the car and looked around, thinking that he had misread it. He thought he was a poor student, and if he knew it, he would have asked for an extra 200 yuan.

"Wait, wait...Master, don't rush to place the goods, I'll call someone."

Gu Qingxia felt sorry for her baby.

"Mother……"

Gu Qingxia pushed open the courtyard door.

This courtyard is built in the middle of the mountain according to the mountain. The courtyard is super large and not a flat surface, but a trend of ups and downs. The houses in the courtyard are Tang Dynasty buildings with a mortise and tenon structure, and there are not one, but seven or eight large and small buildings. The Tang Dynasty-style buildings, according to Feng Shui, are located high and low in the courtyard.

"Wang Wang Wang-"

An Erha barked twice, rushed up wagging its tail, and jumped up and down in front of Gu Qingxia.

"Hehehe... Wangcai, I haven't seen you gain weight for half a month."

Gu Qingxia touched Erha, and continued to look for her mother.

"mom, Mom, Mom……"

Beside the bamboo forest at the other end of the yard, a woman in an apron poked her head out of the door and took a few glances.

"Gu Qingxia?"

The distance is too far, so I am not sure if it is my daughter.

This yard is really big. It is conceivable that the yard built on the middle of the mountain is half a mountain.

"Mom, it's me. Dad, you ask him to come out and help me move things."

"Why did you come back?"

Qin Tingxian put down the kitchen knife, wiped his hands, and walked towards the door. When passing by the antique main hall, he called inside, "Brother Gu, come out quickly, your daughter is back."

Hmm...that's right, Qin Tingxian's name is indeed 'Brother Gu', he's been called 'Brother Gu' since the beginning of dating, and he's been married for 20 years now, and he's been called 'Brother Gu' all the time.

"Qingxia is back? Hahaha... We sent your grandma back to Sunshine Village after our trip the day before yesterday. You just came home yesterday. Are you back today?"

Gu Guocheng walked from the main hall to the eaves, and after a glance that it was indeed his daughter, he put on his slippers, walked down the wooden steps, and went to pick up his daughter with a smile.

"Dad, Mom, help me move things."

"what."

"Oh, Dad, don't tear it up, be careful and help me move to the room, and watch it later."

"It's not heavy, Dad, I can carry it alone."

"Brother Gu, be careful."

"understood."

Gu Guocheng picked up Gu Qingxia's sweetheart and left.

Qin Tingxian paid the fare, watched the truck driver go away, touched Gu Qingxia's face, and said, "Why have you lost weight recently? Mom made old hen soup today, and I will make up for you later."

"Really, Mom, I love you so much."

Gu Qingxia hugged Qin Tingxian's shoulder and acted like a baby.

"What about grandpa?"

"Work in the study, don't disturb him yet."

This Tang Dynasty courtyard in the middle of the mountain is not an ancient building, but a restored Tang Dynasty building that Gu Qingxia's grandfather bought decades ago.

Gu Qingxia's grandfather is a well-known expert in ancient architecture in China.

Participated in and presided over the restoration of many well-known ancient buildings in China.

Hmm... This family belongs to a well-informed cultural person. In ancient times, it was called: a scholarly family.

People in such a family are super low-key, and they really live an ordinary life.

The yard has a vegetable garden and poultry.

Almost self-sufficient.

Gu Qingxia is a talented woman, as a talented woman, her family has no idea, how can she cultivate a talented woman.

I can read Miss Magic Sound, and I am not tempted by rich people. My family is rich.

Don't brag or criticize, Lin Xian really picked up a treasure.

Gu Qingxia's house is located in a gorgeous Tang-style wooden mansion on the east side.

The house is surrounded by wooden railings, and a two-meter-wide wooden corridor surrounds it. It is midsummer, and a circle of roller blinds is lowered, and the sunlight finds the antique windows through the gaps of the roller blinds, which is very ancient.

Can Gu Qingxia who grew up in such an environment not love traditional culture and antiquity?
super love.

"A little bit to the left...wait a minute...a little bit up...yes...that's it...thanks Dad."

In the bedroom, Gu Guocheng got off the stool, clapped his hands, and took a few steps back. The family of three stood in a row, looking at the oil painting with their heads up.

Gu Guocheng and Qin Tingxian turned their heads in doubt to look at the happy-looking daughter in the middle.

Gu Guocheng: "Is this oil painting the treasure you mentioned?"

Gu Qingxia: "That's right."

Gu Guocheng: "Oil paintings don't go well in this room, but your ink and wash self-portraits do."

Gu Qingxia: "I just like this one."

Qin Tingxian looked at his daughter like this, he looked like himself back then, and said, "Are you in love?"

"correct."

Gu Qingxia is still staring at the oil painting obsessively, no matter how you look at it, you don't get tired of it, you think it's strange or not.

The couple looked at each other in surprise, Qin Tingxian said: "He gave you this painting?"

"It wasn't given by him, it was drawn by him. Mom, is the painting beautiful?"

"painter?"

"That's right, but not yet. I'm still an art student now, and I'll be a great painter in the future."

"How big?"

"One year younger than me."

"Underage?"

"...What underage, how dare I provoke underage, I'm eighteen now, my lord."

"Sibling love, are you serious?"

"Mom, what about sibling love or not? I, Gu Qingxia, never mind dating boys younger than myself."

Lu Qingxia often set up flags, and was often slapped in the face by herself. Zhenxiang's warnings were often staged on her.

"Lin Xian?" Gu Guocheng saw the artist's name on the bottom right of the oil painting, "Lin Xian...why do you know him so well? Oh...is it the wall painter I was looking for?"

"Yes, that's Lin Xian! My brother."

Qin Tingxian pulled Gu Qingxia over and said: "What is with what, your boyfriend for a while, and your brother for a while, what exactly is with what?"

Lu Qingxia's current intoxicated and happy expression has been like this since last night until now, and he is deeply trapped.

"Lin Xian is my younger brother, and my younger brother is my boyfriend."

"...Sibling love is hard to bring along."

"I, Gu Qingxia, think it's completely OK."

Gu Qingxia's current state is a woman who can't listen to anything and has a zero IQ.

"How long have you been dating?"

"Only dated recently."

"Do you have that?"

"Which one?"

"Come with me..." Qin Tingxian pulled Gu Qingxia aside, and asked in a low voice, "It's just...cough cough...are you still a virgin?"

"Of course I am! Mom, what are you thinking, did I, Gu Qingxia, get lost so easily?"

"Gu Qingxia, the way you are now is very dangerous, you can lose it at any time!"

"Really?"

"Of course, you are my daughter. Of course I know. I was... er... It was your state back then, and it was the first time that I was coaxed away by your father."

"..."

"Let me tell you, your dating is dating, don't mess around, it's the best dowry for a woman, don't give it randomly, you know?"

"Don't give it randomly, he will be the only one in this life."

"...How old are you? You've only lived your whole life. You might break up someday."

"Mom! You are not allowed to curse us to break up!!!"
