Chapter 649 (2/2)
Fortunately, after a night of intense discussion and exchange, Gu Yuanlong's playing table was completed at one go, and Xia Ying's short story was completely compiled.
The bamboo rat was originally produced by gujia village. So Gu Tuo wanted to take advantage of his son to gain some benefits. Magistrate Mao fully understood.
Gu Tuo pursed his lips. ”I have one more thing to do. I hope the magistrate will agree.”
”Master Gu, please tell me!”
”It is Jiannei is also painting a little story about auspicious omen, so please wait a few more days. When Jiannei has finished painting the story, you will send it to the capital with the performance table. ”
Magistrate Mao was stunned. ”You mean, Mrs. Gu, she's going to be here too?”
”That's right.” Gu Tuo nodded, ”and I agree.”
He has said so. What else can magistrate Mao say?
”In that case, I'll wait a few more days.” He said.
Gu Tuo was overjoyed. ”Thank you, governor!”
”Master Gu, you are very kind. Thank you very much. How many things have you helped us since I met you? ” Magistrate Mao said with a smile.
So, it's just a few more days. He's waiting!
He has read those cartoons drawn by Xia Ying. Both the style and the story are very good. Then, if it can be sent to the imperial front, he is also happy to see its success. After all, it has something to do with my daughter!
If successful, his daughter can also be pasted with a layer of gold, so it is more convenient for him to find a husband with high position and power for her daughter.
Why did he refuse?
With their own minds, the two sides reached an unprecedented agreement on the matter of waiting for a few days.
Of course, Xia Ying didn't make them wait too long.
Now that she had a good idea of it, the first thing she did when she got up was to get her brushes, rice paper and pigments ready, and then she called her sister-in-law Xiao-qi to help herself. The three people worked together. It took three days to draw a complete story, and then filled and colored it.Taking advantage of these three days, Gu Yuanlong went back to Bailu Academy with his written instrument. He gave it to Tangshan Changji for polishing. The final product was even more exquisite than the original one.
After seeing it, the magistrate Mao was full of praise, so he made this draft of the performance table submitted to the imperial court.
