“Yun Niang, this painter’s skill is far superior to mine.”
Though Gu Ya’s paintings were not lacking, they were far from matching this artist Wen Muyan. Despite the lack of apparent difference on the surface, the disparities in details were obvious. Follow current novᴇls on NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Of course, these intricacies were not something Gu Ya could easily explain to his young wife, so he chose not to say much.
Su Yunjin was bewildered. Listening to the couple’s conversation, Prince Ning smiled and said, “Brother Gu, sister-in-law, this is none other than Wen Muyan, the painter whose fame spans the world. Currently, there’s probably no one who can rival his paintings.” After Prince Ning spoke, both Su Yunjin and Gu Ya were simultaneously stunned.
Gu Ya had already roughly guessed Wen Muyan’s identity. While he wasn’t as shocked as his young wife about his identity, he was surprised due to having heard of Wen Muyan’s peculiarities—he knew Wen Muyan wasn’t one to easily create paintings for others. How did the Prince Rui Residence manage to invite him?
Su Yunjin was astonished because she didn’t expect the painter who appeared ordinary would actually be such a renowned master. As the couple pondered, Prince Ning continued, “Sister-in-law, it’s rare to meet Master Wen. With him here today, it’s a stroke of fate. Perhaps you could ask Master Wen to paint a portrait for you too?”
“This…” Su Yunjin inadvertently looked at Gu Ya. Honestly, after learning Wen Muyan was a world-famous painter, Su Yunjin felt moved and desired a portrait from the acknowledged best painter. Seeing his young wife’s interest, Gu Ya looked at Prince Ning, “Your Highness, does Master Wen agree to paint Yun Niang?”
Prince Ning understood Gu Ya’s concern. He knew that the Prince Rui couple were once Wen Muyan’s lifesavers, and Little Tiangua was now the chosen daughter-in-law of the Prince Rui couple. In the future, when Little Tiangua grows up, she will rightfully be the Princely Heir Consort and the next Princess of the Prince Rui Residence.
As Little Tiangua’s biological mother, Su Yunjin, considering the favor towards the Princess Rui and Prince Rui, Wen Muyan surely wouldn’t refuse. With confidence, Prince Ning smiled and said, “Brother Gu, rest assured! If you ask, Master Wen certainly won’t reject.”
Wen Muyan, solely focused on painting, devoted all his attention to the paper and brush before him. Nothing and no one else could disrupt his concentration.
Dedicated to his work, Wen Muyan, after speaking a few words, left Prince Ning and Gu Ya all quietly seated by his side, observing him as he painted Little Tiangua.
Both Prince Ning and Gu Ya, knowledgeable in art, watched Wen Muyan paint. They privately admired Wen Muyan’s credentials as the disciple of Painter Cu Xian, noting his paintings were truly extraordinary. While Su Yunjin didn’t understand painting, knowing Wen Muyan as the world-renowned painter, she watched him work with a newfound reverence.
Mrs. An, concerned about Little Tiangua’s cough, after receiving a remedy from Hongzhu, went to the town’s pharmacy early this morning to procure the herbs.
With the prescription consisting of common herbs, it cost only a few copper coins before Mrs. An left with a large bundle of medicine. Carrying it, she decided to administer the remedy to her granddaughter, Little Tiangua, that afternoon.
