Zhou Xiang looked at their backs and asked Ling Ran beside him, "Any signs?"

Ling Ran turned his head to look at her, "I can't tell, Wu Haotian's expression is becoming more and more unpredictable. Maybe it's because he has too many social engagements, and Zhong Lan has some signs."

Zhou Xiang nodded, "That's good! Love grows over time."

Ling Ran just smiled and said nothing. Yes! Love grows over time, but Wu Haotian's love was with the wrong person.

Zhou Niao still had to go to his art exhibition. Zhou Xiang wanted to understand his feelings, so he and Ling Ran accompanied him.

In the afternoon, the area became even quieter.

Zhou Niao was feeling depressed when a loud voice came from far away, "Hey! Niao Niao! I brought Xiaoxiao to congratulate you. We only sent a flower basket in the morning and came to see your art exhibition in the afternoon."

Zhou Niao immediately smiled, "Grandpa Xiao, little sister Xiaoxiao."

Old Master Xiao smiled and stepped into the yard from the side door. "I'll go through the side door and not buy a ticket."

"Of course, Grandpa Xiao is here, no need to buy a ticket."

Xiao Xiaoxiao pulled Zhou Niao and said, "Brother Niao Niao, is your name Niao Niao Cuiyan?"

Zhou Niao nodded, "Yes! It's a stage name."

As they talked, they went to see the art exhibition. Old Man Xiao's smile faded. "Think about it! I'll tell you the truth, I'm most worried about Xiaoxiao. She's 20 years old, but she's still like a child. I check her body once a day. I'm afraid that if I pass away accidentally, I won't be able to take care of her."

Zhou Xiang chuckled, "Are you telling the truth?"

Old Master Xiao choked, then laughed, "It's the truth, I haven't finished yet! I've noticed that Niao Niao's intelligence has improved recently. Have you hired a doctor for him?"

Zhou Xiang shook his head, "My eldest brother's situation is different from Xiaoxiao's. He has been growing all the time. It seemed slow before because his mind was small. Recently, it seems fast because his mind should be older than fourteen years old.

Moreover, he often went out to collect folk songs, and what he saw remained in his mind. Gradually, he understood some of the ways of the world."

At this point, Zhou Xiang felt really sorry for Xiao Xiaoxiao. "There's a doctor named Cao in our town. You should know him. He's Cao Xiaosong's adoptive father. He's a very good doctor. Why don't you send Xiaoxiao to him to see if there's any hope?"

Of course Mr. Xiao knew Cao Xiaosong, his father-in-law's grandson, and it was this girl in front of him who found him!

"Okay! Let's try. Even if there's a sliver of hope, we have to try. As she grows older, she'll encounter more problems. We can't just wait for the blood stasis to dissipate naturally."

Finally, Mr. Xiao said he wanted to go with the Zhou family, and Zhou Xiang agreed.

After Mr. Xiao left with his granddaughter, one or two people were attracted by the portrait at the door in the afternoon and spent two dollars to buy tickets to come in and watch.

Zhou Niao was very happy to see that there were people who really appreciated his paintings.

Seeing that it was almost done, Zhou Xiang coaxed him back, "Let's go! This is a long-term thing, how can we see the results overnight? If we don't see them, it will be their loss."

After persuading the eldest brother to come back, Brother Chao and An Wen also came to take over the shift after a rest, so Zhou Xiang left with Ling Ran.

An hour later, an old man with crutches came in from outside. The old man was in good spirits. His face could not be seen clearly because of his sunglasses. One of his legs was a little lame. He was followed by a person who looked like a bodyguard.

The bodyguard bought the tickets and An Wen opened the side door to let them in. The bend in the fence was not suitable for people with poor legs and feet.

Jiang Xing'an sent Xiao He to keep an eye on this place. He wanted to find out why Lao Xiao scolded him for losing the watermelon.

After the heat of noon, and finally when everyone who knew him had left, he asked Xiao He to bring him here.

Seeing the painting at the door, he told himself that sometimes when inspiration hits him, he can perform beyond his normal level.

Seeing that each painting was an extraordinary performance, he sighed. No wonder Lao Xiao said that his talent was not even one-tenth of Zhou Niao's. Faced with such paintings, he might not be able to paint many in his lifetime, but they were hanging all over the walls here.

He really had lost two big watermelons. If Zhou Hua and Zhou Yu had also been carefully trained, wouldn't they also have special talents? Zhou Hua seemed to be good at carving and calligraphy, but unfortunately, he didn't want to practice, so Zhou Xiang let him do whatever he wanted.

Xiao He, who knows nothing about art, was also shocked by these paintings.

Jiang Xing'an looked at the painting called "Loneliness" and his eyes became sore. No wonder she hated him so much. Zhuang Zhou's dream of a butterfly brought her indelible vicissitudes of life.

He instructed Xiao He behind him, "Go and ask how much this painting costs."

He wanted to buy them back, including the painting "Anger" at the door. It was obvious that the "Anger" was directed at Lao Zhou. The two people who should have been her elders brought her hatred and anger.

"yes."

Not long after, Xiao He came back and said, "They said they are not selling anything. They are only selling the two paintings in the west wing."

Jiang Xing'an went to the west wing and saw the painting "Small Home". That was where his eldest daughter used to live. The small courtyard brought happiness and warmth to his eldest grandson. Old Zhou! He should have lived a few more years. He should have regretted it with him.

"Go ask again. I'll buy it at any price, including this painting of 'Small Family'."

Xiao He's request made Jin Chao very embarrassed. In fact, he didn't understand why Niao Niao only took out two paintings to sell and not the portrait of his cousin. He understood, but there were no extra choices for the paintings to sell!

He asked Xiao He to wait and call to ask. Xiao He was a little worried. He thought that Miss Zhou was too smart and might be able to guess it, but he had to do what the master told him to do.

Indeed, when Zhou Xiang heard that a customer said he was willing to buy "Loneliness", "Anger" and "Small Family" at any price, he asked Brother Chao to describe the customer's appearance.

She knew who it was the moment she heard it, and she told Brother Chao, "Tell that customer, how much money he thinks can redeem the injustice caused by 'Loneliness' and 'Rage'? He can offer whatever he thinks can redeem the injustice caused by 'Rage'. As long as he dares to bid, we will sell these two paintings to him."

After Xiao He brought back this message, Jiang Xing'an sighed, "Forget it, I'll just buy the 'Small Family' painting."

Did he dare to bid? Those were all indelible psychological traumas. If he bid, it would be a disregard for what Zhou Niao and Zhou Xiang had gone through. If he bid, there would be no chance for him and the eldest daughter's family.

Jin Chao was holding 5500 yuan, he didn't understand, but An Wen did! He pushed him and pointed at the backs of the two people leaving.

"Then, it might be Miss Zhou's grandfather."

Jin Chao was startled. Zhou Xiang's grandfather? Commander Jiang? No wonder he insisted on buying a painting, no wonder his cousin replied like that.

It’s his fault too, he couldn’t resist the temptation!

Thinking of this, he moved a little further away from An Wen and chanted Amitabha in his heart.

An Wen was dissatisfied and moved closer to him. "Why are you hiding from me? You coward, you dare not admit it. I will tell Miss Zhou when I get back."

Jin Chao was so scared that he kept waving his hands, "Don't talk nonsense, what did I do?"

"What did you do? Do you want me to help you recall?"

Jin Chao shook his head repeatedly. Didn't he just hug her tightly by accident? He really didn't do anything!

An Wen whispered in his ear, "Men and women shouldn't touch each other. Tell me, if Aunt Zhao knew, would she ask you to marry me immediately?"

Jin Chao was anxious. "Don't talk nonsense. I, I really didn't mean it. I wasn't paying attention to my feet. I didn't know it was you..."
