Chapter 238 Master Hong An is Here
Seeing Master Hong'an, Qiao Jinghua and others were very excited.
"Master Hong'an, you're here." Qiao Jinghua immediately stepped forward and shook hands respectfully. "We've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Yeah." Master Hong'an is nearly seventy years old, but he is still in very good health, with a rosy complexion and an extraordinary temperament. He has a lot of respect and honor as an artist.
His attitude was very cold, and he seemed to care little about anything.
"This is my little daughter, Yashu. Yashu has always admired you." Qiao Jinghua introduced.
Qiao Yashu stepped forward and looked at Master Hongan, her eyes filled with excitement. She said, "Master Hongan, I learned to paint because of you. I never thought I would be able to meet you one day. It's such an honor!"
She bowed.
Master Hong'an's attitude was as calm as usual. Although he seemed to be somewhat contemptuous of everything, it did not make people feel disgusted. After all, he held such a high position.
"If you hadn't quarreled with your father, we would have met a long time ago." Master Hong'an said to Qiao Jinghua.
Qiao Jinghua's smile froze at the corners of his mouth. He knew what Master Hong'an meant and felt a little embarrassed. "It's indeed my fault. I never thought my father's health would be so poor... Sigh, I've been filled with shame over the years."
Qiao Jinghua and his father had different ideas and often quarreled. His father died shortly after their last quarrel.
He wanted to visit Master Hong'an, but Master Hong'an was unwilling to see him because of this.
"We are indeed deeply regretful, but the dead cannot be resurrected. Jinghua visits father several times every year." Madam Qiao Er stepped forward and said, "Master Hongan, please take a seat."
Master Hongan sat down, and Qiao Yashu poured him tea. Master Hongan said directly, "Show me your paintings."
"good."
Qiao Yashu immediately went to get some of her most proud paintings.
Master Hong'an looked at it, his expression calm.
Qiao Yashu sat beside him, feeling her heart beating uncontrollably and extremely nervous. She was very confident in herself, but the person in front of her was Master Hong'an. If she could gain Master Hong'an's appreciation and become his disciple, she would be able to surpass the entire painting world in the future.
Qiao Yashu felt excited just thinking about it.
"It's okay." Master Hong'an said in a calm tone.
"I don't have any talent, I just know how to work hard. If I could learn from Master Hong'an, I would definitely work harder." Qiao Yashu said softly.
Hong An looked at her and said, "Painting doesn't just depend on hard work."
"Master Hong'an is right." Qiao Yashu nodded.
They were all very nervous and didn't know what Master Hong'an meant.
"I'll consider it." Master Hong'an said.
Everyone suddenly became excited. Being able to consider it meant there was hope and it was a good thing.
Suddenly, several people gathered around Master Hong'an and started chatting. Qiao Yanfei, who was sitting aside, was obviously being treated coldly, but he didn't care and just drank his tea.
At noon, Qiao Jinghua invited everyone to eat, and Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Qingci also came back.
Master Hong'an's cold face was instantly shocked when he saw Qiao Qingci. He looked at Qiao Qingci with wide eyes.
"Master Hongan is here." Mrs. Qiao greeted him warmly.
"Oh, Madam Qiao, long time no see." Master Hong'an actually smiled warmly, "Is this your daughter?"
Faced with Master Hong'an's sudden affection, Mrs. Qiao was a little at a loss.
They visited Master Hong'an so many times, but he was always very cold and arrogant, with a kind of arrogance that looked down on everything.
But now, he is so affectionate to her?
"Yes." Mrs. Qiao caressed Qiao Qingci's shoulders. "This is my daughter, Qiao Qingci."
"So she is Mrs. Qiao's daughter. She is as beautiful as a lotus emerging from the water, just like Mrs. Qiao." Master Hong'an praised with a smile.
The people around were a little confused by Master Hong'an's sudden enthusiasm.
Is this still the same stern Master Hong'an?
It was as if he suddenly became a different person.
Qiao Yashu frowned, but spoke gently, "My cousin is indeed beautiful, but also very pitiful. She was in the countryside for such a long time before she was found. If she had been found earlier, perhaps she could have studied painting with Master Hong'an."
With just a few words, she explained that Qiao Qingci was a fool, and that there was no need for Master Hong'an to be so kind to Qiao Qingci.
Unexpectedly, Master Hong'an glanced at Qiao Yashu nonchalantly, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.
Qiao Yashu was stunned. What did that look mean?
"Hello, Master Hong'an." Qiao Qingci said obediently.
Master Hong An chuckled inwardly. He had never thought that one day he would see this little girl being so well behaved. "Well, okay."
He deliberately asked, "Since you are sisters, have you ever thought about learning painting?"
When these words were spoken, the whole audience was shocked and one could hear a pin drop.
What does it mean to be a disciple of Master Hong'an?
From now on you will have established a firm foothold in the painting world.
Therefore, countless people dreamed of becoming his apprentice, such as Qiao Yashu. She also spent a lot of effort to contact Master Hongan, and Master Hongan did not decide to accept her as a disciple. But Master Hongan asked Qiao Qingci this the first time he met him?
Qiao Jinghua and the others could only think that it must be because Qiao Yashu was so powerful, so Master Hong'an thought Qiao Qingci was also very powerful.
Qiao Yashu said softly: "Master Hongan, actually my sister can't draw..."
Master Hong An waved his hand and said, "You can learn if you don't know how to do it!"
