Chapter 200: Four Garden Views

"What a good boy. What a worry-free child." Gu Xiaoyou said in a pretentious manner.

Unconsciously, he acted like an elder.

Zhixia was amused. Her daughter was at least two years older than her, and she always spoke with an air of air. She was so cute.

"Okay, it's getting late, you go and have a rest."

"Yes, miss." Zhixia felt blessed, turned around and left.

In the next few days, Gu Xiaoyou left Zhixia in the backyard and led the female workers to cut paper alone.

In the morning and afternoon, Gu Xiaoyou went to check from time to time and found that Zhixia was completely familiar with the work of teaching and paper-cutting.

Gu Xiaoyou gradually stopped going on inspection tours, freeing up a lot of time during the day.

In addition to going to various stores every day to check the work, Gu Xiaoyou has a lot of free time.

There is no need to learn recipes and paper-cutting videos at night, you can sort them out on the second floor of the medical center during the day.

After all this work, she still had time left to study other shops on the street.

But probably because he was too busy some time ago, Gu Xiaoyou's mind couldn't be turned around for a while, and his head was full of tricks.

I simply looked up a picture of the four most famous Suzhou gardens in China on the Internet and cut it out of very large colored paper.

Every day I cut some paper and calm down, while thinking about what to open the remaining shops.

Unknowingly, I cut out four scenes of Suzhou gardens. Each paper cutout was one foot wide and two feet long.

"Wow, I didn't expect it to be so big." Gu Xiaoyou was shocked by his craftsmanship.

Gu Xiaoyou admired it for a while and said regretfully: "It would be great if I could have a glass photo frame, so I can make paper-cut paintings."

She took out a large piece of white mulberry paper and put the cutouts on it to compare. The red paper with a white background looked particularly nice.

It's a pity to post it. Just when he was thinking about inventing glass, suddenly an idea flashed and Gu Xiaoyou patted his thigh: "I can ask someone to frame it into a painting for me."

Gu Xiaoyou rolled the four paper-cuts in white rice paper and walked downstairs.

"I'm really stupid. The ancient painting technology was so advanced, so why should I study glass at the expense of the near and distant?"

With that kind of time, I could cut out hundreds of paintings.

Gu Xiaoyou came to Youlian Business Card Shop with excitement, walked happily to Ding Xiucai's desk, and solemnly asked: "Do you have time? I want to ask you a favor."

Ding Xiucai stood up from his chair and said politely: "If you need anything, Boss Gu, just ask me."

"Okay, then I'll get it straight." Gu Xiaoyou put the rolled paper-cuts on the table and said bluntly: "Please help me frame them into four paintings."

"I'm good at framing paintings." Listening to Boss Gu's solemn tone, he thought it was some serious event.

"Let me take a look first." Ding Xiucai unfolded the paper on the table gracefully. He was stunned when he unfolded it. Unexpectedly, what was wrapped in the paper was not the rice paper painting he had seen before.

"This..." Ding Xiucai said uncertainly: "Isn't this the paper-cut you made? How can paper-cut be turned into a painting?"

"Oh, what can't be done?" Gu Xiaoyou said puzzledly: "Can't you just paste the paper cutting on the rice paper and then frame it into a painting normally?"

"I see, I'm stupid." Ding Xiucai understood immediately and immediately understood what Gu Xiaoyou meant.

After thinking about it, Ding Xiucai carefully observed the paper-cutting in his hand and put it on the white rice paper for comparison. He was originally thinking about how to frame it into a painting, but he unconsciously noticed the fine details of the paper-cutting and the grand content of the work.

Attracted by the pattern, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes: "Boss Gu's paper-cuts are very wonderful."

It was more exquisite than many paintings he had seen.

"You're honored. If you need anything, just tell me and I'll leave it to you to mount the painting." Gu Xiaoyou said cheerfully.

"Don't worry, Boss Gu." Ding Xiucai solemnly agreed, continuing to look at the paper-cut in his hand intently.

Upon seeing this, Gu Xiaoyou stopped disturbing Ding Xiucai, hummed a tune, and left the business card shop slowly.

Three days later, on the second floor of the medical center.

In the room, Gu Xiaoyou was making changes on the floor plan when he heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

She put down her brush, strolled to the door, and opened the door to the room.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Ding Xiucai walking upstairs. Gu Xiaoyou took a few steps forward and greeted, "Hi, are you here to see me?"

"Yes, I have sent a painting to Boss Gu." Ding Xiucai bowed slightly to Gu Xiaoyou and showed her the wooden box in his hand.

"Quickly, let me take a look." Gu Xiaoyou opened one of the wooden boxes and saw a picture scroll placed inside.

It was a bit difficult to take the wooden box and the painting. Gu Xiaoyou held the scroll and turned around: "Let's go to the house and have a look."

"Okay." Ding Xiucai held the other wooden boxes and followed Gu Xiaoyou into the room, deliberately opening the door.

Gu Xiaoyou casually put the wooden box on the table and eagerly unfolded the scroll. She saw that her paper-cuts fit perfectly on the scroll, with no trace of pasting visible.

The color of the paper-cut has not faded at all, and is perfectly preserved on the scroll. Ding Xiucai also printed a seal in the corner of the painting, making the portrait look like a painting by a famous person.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at it for a long time without recognizing what words were written on the seal, and asked curiously: "What words are printed on this chapter?"

Ding Xiucai was carefully placing the wooden boxes. Hearing this, he replied: "It's the character Gu in seal script."

"It turns out that the character "Gu" in seal script looks good like this." Gu Xiaoyou looked at the mark carefully several times, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.

At this time, Ding Xiucai had already placed the wooden box and took out an engraved seal from his sleeve: "Here you go."

"For me?" Gu Xiaoyou reached out to take it doubtfully, looked at it with the engraved seal, and found that it was the handwriting on the painting.

"Wow, this is Gu Zi's seal. Thank you, you are so thoughtful." Gu Xiaoyou said happily.

"Boss Gu, you're welcome. I don't have anything else to do, so I'll take my leave first." Ding Xiucai smiled faintly, bowed to Gu Xiaoyou, and turned around to leave.

Gu Xiaoyou personally walked Ding Xiucai to the stairs and waved to him: "Bye."

Hearing this, Ding Xiucai bowed his hands to Gu Xiaoyou without knowing why, and then left.

Gu Xiaoyou scratched her head, wondering why Ding Xiucai suddenly begged her. Before she could ask, Ding Xiucai had already walked away.

"It's probably some etiquette thing." Gu Xiaoyou shrugged, turned around and went back to the house, continuing to admire several other framed paintings.

In the evening, Gu Xiaoyou held the wooden box and stepped onto the carriage.

Zhixia quickly reached out and took the wooden box from Gu Xiaoyou's hand: "Let me take it."

"Okay, thank you." Gu Xiaoyou handed it to Zhixia and supported the driver's arm to get into the car.
