Chapter 152: Painting is worth a gold

Gu Xiaoyou watched the carriage go away, touched the gold ingot in his sleeve, and sighed: "There are still many rich people in the capital."

After saying that, she lifted up her skirt, strode back to the shop, and excitedly waved to Mrs. Zhou: "Sister Zhou, come here."

"What's wrong?" Zhou walked over without knowing why.

Gu Xiaoyou mysteriously pulled Ms. Zhou into the small cubicle, gave Ms. Zhou the paintings on the table, and asked: "Sister Zhou, guess how much my paintings are worth?"

"Your paintings..." Mrs. Zhou looked at the paintings on the paper. They were all strange patterns. She didn't recognize any of them except the rabbit. She said softly: "Twenty cents?"

"You underestimate me, don't you? Guess boldly, take a big guess." Gu Xiaoyou stared at her beautiful starry eyes and said dissatisfiedly.

"Then..." Mrs. Zhou pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then said tentatively: "Ten taels of silver?"

"Wrong guess." Gu Xiaoyou pouted and said unhappily: "My painting is worth ten taels in your heart?"

Zhou smiled coquettishly and said: "This calligraphy and painting is too complicated. I don't understand it. Xiaoyou, please don't embarrass me. Just tell me directly."

"Okay." Gu Xiaoyou sighed, took out the gold ingot from his sleeve, and slapped it on the table with a "pop" sound.

"Dang dang dang, that's a whole ingot of gold!" Gu Xiaoyou raised her beautiful eyebrows and proudly showed off.

"Oh my god, is this painting so valuable?" Zhou was holding the painting casually, but when he saw the gold ingots on the table, he immediately held the painting with both hands, for fear of damaging the painting, which was worth one gold.

Already.

Gu Xiaoyou took the gold ingot and tossed it in his hand: "My hand is the most valuable. Without my right hand, where would this painting come from?"

"You're right, stop playing with gold, or you may hurt your hands." Ms. Zhou advised softly.

"How can gold hurt your hands?" Gu Xiaoyou stuffed the gold ingot into his sleeve: "I'm going to paint. The ladies will need it in ten days."

"Whatever you need, I'll get it for you." Zhou said positively.

Gu Xiaoyou took out the orders from the ladies and read: "I need two pieces of water-red colored paper, three pieces of lotus-colored colored paper, one each of lilac and aqua green, just help me take them to the hospital."

"

"Okay, I'll go right away." Mrs. Zhou responded and immediately went to the backyard to get the paper.

Gu Xiaoyou held the order in his hand and returned to the hospital with brisk steps.

She prepared pens, inks and paints, pulled back the curtain on the consultation table, took out her mobile phone from her purse, called up the pattern, spread it out on rice paper, and practiced painting according to the pattern carefully.

Not long after, Mrs. Zhou came over with colored paper and asked softly: "Xiaoyou, are you in there?"

"Yes." Gu Xiaoyou responded without raising his eyes.

Zhou gently lifted a corner of the curtain, and saw Gu Xiaoyou tracing her treasure on the paper, and gently put the colored paper to her hand: "The colored paper is here."

"Well, thank you." Gu Xiaoyou responded casually and painted without raising his head.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhou gently lowered the curtain, covered the corners, and left the hospital with light steps.

Gu Xiaoyou concentrated on practicing painting on the rice paper. Only when the colors were matched well did she put down the brush with satisfaction.

She stretched and shouted outside: "Xiao Wan, what time is it?"

After shouting for a long time without hearing any response, Gu Xiaoyou opened a corner of the curtain and poked his head out. The main door of the medical center had been closed and the lights in the room were brightly lit.

"Is everyone gone?" She took out her phone in confusion and saw that it was already after six o'clock in the evening.

"No wonder they all left." Gu Xiaoyou patted her forehead. She vaguely remembered what Xiao Wan said to her. She responded perfunctorily, and then heard the door closing, forgetting all about it.

"When you create, you forget yourself." Gu Xiaoyou joked to herself and put away her pen and ink.

Just as he was about to put away all the rice paper, there was a knock on the door, and Zhou's voice came: "Xiaoyou, are you done? It's time for us to go home."

"I'm done, I'm just packing up my things." Gu Xiaoyou responded, put away the paintings and colored paper, and walked to the door with her skirt in hand.

"I'm fine, let's go home." Gu Xiaoyou walked out of the hospital, took out the door lock, locked the door of the hospital, and left slowly with Mrs. Zhou.

Five days later, Gu Xiaoyou prepared the two packs of tissue paper for each person that the ladies requested for fifteen days, and sent the driver from the express delivery station to deliver them.

After sending the tissue pack away, Gu Xiaoyou felt a little relieved and returned to the hospital to continue working on the remaining tissue packs.

I have been drawing simple drawings for five days in a row, coloring and tracing. If I make a mistake, I can't correct it. I can only paint it carefully one stroke at a time. No matter how simple the simple drawing is, Gu Xiaoyou almost vomits blood.

Already.

"It's so satisfying to collect money for a while, the boss broke his hand while drawing." Gu Xiaoyou joked to himself while drawing.

Time for serious painting always passes quickly, and a few hours pass before you know it.

Gu Xiaoyou was coloring on the paper when the delivery driver came in and reported: "Boss Gu, the tissue bags have been delivered. The ladies are very satisfied and gave you a few gifts."

"What?" Gu Xiaoyou put down the brush in his hand and asked curiously.

"It's all in my purse, even the little one doesn't know." The driver took out a few purses from his pocket and put his hands on Gu Xiaoyou's table.

"Thank you, I'll reward you for running errands." Gu Xiaoyou thanked him and took out a piece of broken silver from his purse and gave it to the driver.

"Thank you, boss." The coachman took it cheerfully, bowed to Gu Xiaoyou and left.

Picking up a purse casually, a faint fragrance came. Gu Xiaoyou sniffed: "It smells quite good."

She opened her purse wide and looked into it casually. Her eyes widened when she saw that there were a few gold leaves in her purse.

"That's right." Gu Xiaoyou said in surprise. He quickly closed the curtain and carefully placed the gold leaf in his purse on the table.

"I guess it was given to me by the lady with a very lively smile." Gu Xiaoyou looked at the golden leaves and smiled.

One purse brought such a big surprise, Gu Xiaoyou opened the remaining purses one by one with curiosity.

Some purses contained jade bracelets, some purses contained gold jewelry, and some purses contained exquisite hairpins. Gu Xiaoyou looked at them one by one and sighed in her heart, the ladies from the capital are so bold.

"Show it to Sister Zhou tonight, and she won't say that I spend money lavishly." Gu Xiaoyou tied up her purse and put it in her sleeve pocket, thinking of showing it off to Mrs. Zhou.
