Chapter 246: He has a really nice cut!

Three minutes later, Gu Xiaoxi unfolded the paper cutting in his hand, and a big red double happiness appeared.

The most wonderful thing is that there is a blooming lotus under the big double happiness. The paper-cut is round in shape, which is delicate and beautiful.

"Sister-in-law, this is so beautiful!" Li Kun was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling!

This is much better than the haircut of the wives of soldiers in the Second Regiment!

Seeing that he thought it looked good, Gu Xiaoxi cut a second double happiness pattern.

This time the paper-cut is even more beautiful. Flying and entwined on both sides of the double happiness are a dragon and a phoenix. It is exquisite and absolutely beautiful!

When Li Kun saw the finished product, his eyes widened!

After cutting out the two large double happiness characters, Gu Xiaoxi cut out twenty small ordinary happiness characters.

After thinking for a while, he cut out a few more words: Congratulations on your wedding, and may you live happily ever after!

"Is that enough?" asked Gu Xiaoxi.

Li Kun chuckled, "Sister-in-law, cut more so we can stick more."

Gu Xiaoxi thought there was no need to cut so many "happiness" characters, so he cut some "blessing" characters for window decorations.

There were various kinds of "Fu" characters, two of each style. When Ding Lanyi came over with the scissors, Gu Xiaoxi had already cut a bunch of beautiful window paper-cuts.

Li Kun was eager to show off, so he carefully picked up the paper-cuts that Gu Xiaoxi had made and ran away.

Ding Lanyi didn't see it clearly either. After she came over, she sat down and started cutting the wedding character.

Gu Xiaoxi was also cutting, but she cut a national flag on the window paper with a soldier saluting below.

After cutting and unfolding the photo, she felt that the soldier's profile looked like Lu Jiansen.

She couldn't help but smile, then cut her hair again.

This time, there was still a national flag on the window grille, with a line of dazzling red words on the edge: Long live the motherland!

And below the national flag, there is still a silhouette of a soldier, but this person looks more like Li Kun.

Ding Lanyi glanced at it casually, and suddenly she couldn't use the scissors in her hand anymore.

This cut is so beautiful!

Just then, Lu Jiansen came back.

As soon as he walked over, he saw the paper-cuts made by his little girl.

He glanced at it casually at first, but then he saw it clearly and picked it up carefully.

He was surprised when he found that the person in one of the window paper-cuts looked very much like himself.

My little girl is so skillful!

He cut it so nicely!

"Does it look good?" Gu Xiaoxi asked Lu Jiansen.

Lu Jiansen smiled and nodded, "It looks good. The window grilles that Li Kun took down were all snapped up like crazy! Someone broke one and Li Kun punched him several times."

Gu Xiaoxi was also amused when he heard this, "Then cut a few more for them!"

As he was speaking, a group of warriors suddenly squeezed in from outside the door.

"Sister-in-law, my sister is getting married next year. Can you help me cut a nice-looking wedding character?"

"Sister-in-law, I want a Chinese character for blessing with a dragon pattern..."

"Sister-in-law, I want..."

Before she could finish her words, Li Kun came up from behind and said, "If every one of you wants one, I will be exhausted to death!"

Gu Xiaoxi pursed her lips and smiled, "There's not enough paper to cut so much. I'll just finish cutting these red papers!"

A soldier whispered, "There are more. The logistics department must have bought a lot. Go and ask for some more red paper."

Gu Xiaoxi looked up at Lu Jiansen and said, "How about bringing some more red paper?"

Lu Jiansen picked up the cut-out paper on the table, which clearly looked like Li Kun, and handed it to him, "Hey, your sister-in-law cut it for you. Go get the red paper!"

Li Kun took it and took a look at it, then shouted excitedly, "Long live the motherland!", and then ran away like the wind.

Gu Xiaoxi smiled, folded the red paper in front of her, stacked it neatly, and cut it all at once.

Ding Lanyi also stopped using the scissors and watched her cut.

The other group of warriors who had not left also gathered around and watched.

Three minutes later, Gu Xiaoxi separated the paper-cuts in his hand one by one, then unfolded them, and instantly got ten dragon-patterned window grilles with the words "Year of the Dragon and Good Luck".

The dragon on the window paper-cut is a pair of dragons playing with a pearl. It looks vivid, domineering and majestic.

Just with this, the needs of ten warriors who wanted dragon pattern window grilles were satisfied.

“I’ll cut the characters for happiness and blessing later.” Gu Xiaoxi rubbed his hands and decided not to cut them for the time being.

Ding Lanyi weakly handed over the two pieces of red paper in front of her, "There are more here."

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at her, then moved the scissors and cut out two large-sized "囍" characters. The pattern was a magpie climbing a branch, which had a good meaning!

The warrior who got the paper-cut looked at Lu Jiansen, didn't stay long, and ran away quickly.

After Li Kun brought the red paper over again, Gu Xiaoxi cut the red paper, stacked several sheets of paper together, and quickly cut out twenty pieces of paper with the words "Auspicious New Year", twenty pieces of paper with the words "Welcome the Spring and Bring Good Fortune", twenty pieces of paper with the words "Happy New Year", twenty pieces of paper with the words "Happy New Year", and one hundred pieces of simple window decorations with the word "Fu" on them.

Ding Lanyi's eyes were dazzled as she watched from the side because Gu Xiaoxi's hands were moving so fast.

Moreover, she can cut many pieces of paper together without any crookedness or tilt, and her cutting is very good.

She just can't do it. She can only stack two sheets of paper at most. If the paper is thick, it won't work.

However, the scissors in Gu Xiaoxi's hand seemed to be so sharp that they could fly. Every time he cut the scissors, there was no lag at all.

Gu Xiaoxi finished cutting the red paper that Li Kun brought and stopped cutting.

Li Kun was also very satisfied!

At this time, Gu Xiaoxi never imagined that she would suddenly become famous because of these paper-cuts.

In the evening, just as Gu Xiaoxi and Lu Jiansen returned home, Political Commissar Luo came to their house.

After exchanging pleasantries with Grandpa Jiang and Gu Xiaoxi's parents, Political Commissar Luo called Gu Xiaoxi to his side and started talking about business.

"Comrade Xiaoxi, your paper-cut window decorations are so beautiful! Teacher Tang kept praising you when he saw them!"

Gu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment, "No way! Teacher Tang saw the paper-cuts I made?"

Political Commissar Luo smiled and nodded, "That's right. The dragon pattern you cut was very detailed, yet majestic. The "Long Live the Motherland" you cut for that kid Li Kun was even more interesting. Now, the leaders have given you a new mission."

Gu Xiaoxi immediately sat up straight, "Political Commissar, you tell me! As long as I can do it, I guarantee that I will complete the task!"

Political Commissar Luo glanced at Lu Jiansen, who was inexplicably nervous, and then explained with a smile, "Division Commander Tang and the military district leaders will attend an important meeting tomorrow, and they will receive several foreign friends then..."

"As hosts, we will give our foreign friends some Chinese gifts, and the selection of these gifts is very particular..."

"What the leaders meant was that paper cutting is one of the most traditional folk arts in our country. They asked you to cut out a picture of 'peace and prosperity', and another one of 'abundant crops'. Oh, there is a diplomat who is newly married to his wife, so you can cut out a picture of 'a happy marriage for a hundred years', or 'a perfect moon and beautiful flowers', or something like that..."

"When the time comes, these paper-cuts will be framed and given as gifts!"

After saying that, he looked at Gu Xiaoxi and asked, "Can I cut it?"

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Sure! I'll cut it after dinner!"

"Then I'll have someone bring you some red paper and scissors!"

"Okay! Just red paper! I have scissors at home."

Political Commissar Luo smiled and nodded, said hello to Grandpa Jiang and Gu Xiaoxi's parents, and left.

Watching Political Commissar Luo walk away, Grandpa Jiang looked at his granddaughter with a look of satisfaction.

"Xiaoxi is so skillful, just like her grandmother!"
