As Da Bao and Xiao Bao listened to what Su Tian said, they thought of their own fathers and felt both sad and respectful.

Gu Bai picked up a bottle of beer from the ground, took a sip, and found it a bit bitter.

"Hehe, Xiao Gu, let me try some beer from Guangdong province too."

"good."

After taking a sip, Gu Yuanshan found it to be somewhat bitter, but it smelled quite refreshing.

In the hot summer, this flavor can also be refreshing.

Da Bao, holding Su Tian's hand, asked her, "Mom, why do you always like to buy wine to pay tribute to the martyrs?"

Su Tian patted Da Bao's head and said, "Most of these martyrs were from Guangdong Province. All of these wines are produced locally in Guangdong Province. Drinking the wine from their hometown can relieve their homesickness."

Gu Yuanshan continued, "Da Bao and Xiao Bao, your mother is right. You'll find out when you grow up."

When I'm away from home, seeing certain people or things from my hometown always makes me feel a sense of warmth and excitement.

After spending several days in Guangdong Province, they set off to return to Beijing.

After arriving in Beijing, Gu Bai remembered seeing a dress in a book before, so he recalled it and began to draw it.

He drew from noon until night, and finally finished the dresses that the two of them would wear when they got married.

Gu Yuanshan had prepared dinner and was waiting for Gu Bai to come out and eat.

Just as she was about to knock on the door and call him out, Gu Bai came out of his room.

"Uncle Gu, you were looking for me?"

"Honey, are you hungry? I was just about to knock on the door and call you out."

"I'm hungry. Let's eat now. I was drawing and forgot to check the time. Could you please cook the rice?"

Gu Bai only then realized he was hungry, so he picked up the chicken soup on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

After Gu Bai sat down, Gu Yuanshan asked him, "Little Gu, you can also draw?"

"Yes, I can draw. My adoptive father taught me these things when I was little."

Gu Bai picked up some food and ate it, then asked him, "Hehe, your adoptive parents are really good, teaching you all this. You hid in your room all day, what did you draw?"

"Draw the dress I wore when I got married to my sister."

"Oh, you can also draw clothes?" Gu Yuanshan looked at him in surprise.

"I can draw people or objects; I find it quite simple."

"Haha, not bad, can I see your drawing?"

"Okay, I'll take you to my room after we finish eating."

After dinner, Gu Bai led Gu Yuanshan into his room. When Gu Yuanshan picked up the paper on the table, his eyes unconsciously revealed his appreciation.

"Doesn't your drawing look a bit like the formal attire of the Han and Tang dynasties?"

Gu Bai nodded, "Yes, I think the dresses from that dynasty are very beautiful, and I believe my sister will like them too."

"Not only does she like it, but I also really like your drawings."

When the clothes are finished, you two, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, will definitely look absolutely stunning in them.

Gu Bai was very happy to hear Gu Yuanshan's praise.

"Did you draw anything else?"

"Uncle Gu, do you still want to see it? Yes, it's in the drawer."

So, Gu Bai opened one of the drawers, took out the oil paper, and showed it to Gu Yuanshan.

Gu Yuanshan was stunned when he saw the first sheet of paper. "This whole stack of drawings is of that child, Xiao Su?"

Gu Bai nodded shyly, "Mm."

He carefully flipped through one painting after another. The Su Tian in the paintings looked exactly like the real person; they were painted so realistically.

The painting especially depicts Su Tian's eyes, which are like a deep lake, looking at you with clarity and brightness.

"How many portraits are in this large stack?"

"More than a hundred drawings, I started drawing them eight years ago."

"It seems you genuinely like her; most of your drawings depict her smiling."

She is indeed very beautiful, even more so than her mother.

Okay, I've finished looking at them. You should keep them safe.

"Yes, I will. I'll wrap them in parchment paper; they shouldn't spoil." Gu Bai carefully wrapped them up and put them in the drawer.

"Does Xiao Su know about these drawings you made?"

Gu Bai shook his head.

Gu Yuanshan immediately understood the reason. "Hehe, you silly boy, you started drawing eight years ago."

"Doesn't that mean you've fallen for someone else's wife?"

Gu Bai didn't speak; he knew his biological father was right.

“You child, I heard from Xiaobao that you only got together with Xiaosu in the last month or two, and that his father has been dead for more than three years.”

"I liked you before, and feelings are uncontrollable. I really admire you for being so loyal."

Gu Bai pondered for a moment before explaining, "Because she deserves it. My adoptive parents passed away, and I was injured and discharged from the army."

I was just thinking of living like a walking corpse, but the moment I saw her, I instantly had the will to live.

At that time, her husband asked me to come back and help him. I originally planned to meet him and refuse his kindness.

But the moment I saw my sister, I decided to work hard and live well.

Gu Yuanshan paused for a moment, then simply said, "Yes, let's live well together."

The next day, Gu Bai took the completed dress design to the old tailor.

"Master, can you make it?" Gu Bai asked nervously.

"Yes, I have this skill. I've been making all kinds of clothes since I was young."

"I learned this craft from my grandmother; she used to be an embroiderer in the palace. I guarantee I can make this wedding dress for you."

"That's good. How long will it take?"

The tailor thought for a moment, then said, "Come back in two weeks."

"Okay, thanks. The dimensions are written on the painting. Here's the deposit."

"Alright, did you paint this dress?" the master craftsman suddenly asked.

"I drew it, Master. Is there a problem?"

"Hehe, no, you draw really well. I didn't expect a young man like you to be such a good artist."

Gu Bai smiled and said, "You flatter me, Master. Since there are no problems, I'll be going now."

"Okay, sure."

He returned to the factory and went into Su Tian's office.

"Xiao Bai, where did you go this morning? I didn't see you when I came here."

Gu Bai closed the office door, walked to Su Tian's seat, and picked her up in his arms.

"I'm going to prepare a surprise. I'll bring it back to show my sister later, okay?"

Su Tian looked at him in surprise and asked with a smile, "Xiao Bai, you can also pull this surprise trick? You seem so honest, but you've learned to be romantic too."

"Hmm? Is this what romance is?" Gu Bai kissed her and said.

"Yes, as a reward for you, I'll come to your place tonight, okay?"

"Really?" Gu Bai excitedly released Su Tian.

"Yes, what I say is never false."

"Sister, that's wonderful! You haven't been to my house in ages."

In his excitement, Gu Bai picked up Su Tian and spun her around.

"Haha, Xiaobai, you like to hold me and spin me around so much, I wonder if you'll still be able to pick me up when you're in your fifties or sixties?"
