Chapter 28 The Best Sister-in-law

After lunch, Gu Nanyan followed Master Le to the study to see his collection.

Master Le liked Gu Nanyan very much and enthusiastically introduced his collection to her, and also explained the characteristics of the works of various famous artists.

Gu Nanyan listened very carefully.

Her understanding of calligraphy and painting was still before the Great Qi Dynasty, and she didn't understand much about the development of calligraphy and painting in later generations. After

listening to Master Le's talk, she learned that in later generations, the brushwork of traditional Chinese painting had made a leap forward, and many special types appeared. Until modern times, Western oil paintings appeared.

Although Master Le is a master of traditional Chinese painting, he likes oil paintings very much and has collected many works of famous artists.

After introducing the collection, Master Le took a sip of water and suddenly asked, "Nanyan, are you interested in learning painting from me?"

Before Gu Nanyan could speak, Zhan Yiran screamed, "Ah!!! Master Le wants to take my eldest sister-in-law as his apprentice?"

Master Le actually wants to take my eldest sister-in-law as his apprentice!

That's Master Le, the most powerful master of Chinese painting in modern times.

Zhan Yiran didn't even dare to think about it.

Le Xuanji's mother came to deliver fruit and happened to hear what Master Le said.

She was more surprised than Zhan Yiran.

Her father-in-law usually smiles and seems to have a very good temper. He is also willing to give young people advice on painting problems, but in fact, his standards are particularly high. He doesn't even look down on his own granddaughter.

At first, she and her husband persuaded her father-in-law for a long time, but he didn't let him accept Le Xuanji.

He usually taught Xuanji how to paint, but he was unwilling to establish a

master-disciple relationship. He always said that their school of apprenticeship had extremely high requirements for talent, and they would rather have fewer than too many apprentices, and they would not lower the standard to accept apprentices even if the inheritance was broken.

Now, he actually proposed to accept Gu Nanyan!

Le's mother couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. In fact, she liked Gu Nanyan very much, but her father-in-law didn't accept his own granddaughter, but instead wanted to accept an outsider as an apprentice. Le's mother was really uncomfortable.

She suppressed the complicated emotions in her heart and pushed the door in to deliver the fruit.

However, just as Le's mother put her hand on the door handle, she heard Gu Nanyan say, "Thank you for your kindness, but I just like painting simply, just like I like the wind outside the window and the clouds in the sky. I am not exclusive and I don't want to be proficient in this path. Sorry."

Le's mother almost dropped the plate in her hand.

This Gu Nanyan actually, actually rejected her father-in-law!

Zhan Yiran was also dumbfounded, looking at Gu Nanyan in disbelief.

Does the eldest sister-in-law know what she rejected? That's Master Le, the master of Chinese painting!

Gu Nanyan's expression was calm, and she didn't think it was a pity. If she didn't want to, she didn't want to. If she didn't want to, she didn't want to. She always followed her inner wishes and would never change her mind because of those external reasons. So

what if Master Le is a master of Chinese painting?

She just didn't want to.

Le Chang was also stunned for a long time. He didn't expect Gu Nanyan to reject him. There are so many people in this world who dream of becoming his apprentice, but Gu Nanyan is unwilling.

Le Chang thought it was a little funny, but he was not angry.

Master and apprentice also talk about fate. Gu Nanyan is unwilling, which means they are not destined.

Le Chang has lived for so many years and has seen a lot of things. He is very broad-minded. He was not angry when Gu Nanyan rejected him. Instead, he took the initiative to suggest that if Gu Nanyan is willing, he can come to Le's house more often to discuss painting together.

After chatting for a while, Le Chang was a little tired. Old people can't hold on for too long and need to rest.

After Master Le went back to his bedroom to rest, Gu Nanyan and Zhan Yiran stayed in the study to continue admiring the collections. There

were only two of them left in the room, and Zhan Yiran finally couldn't help asking the question in her heart: "Sister-in-law, why did you reject Master Le? That's Master Le. It's the dream of many people to learn painting from Master Le.

By learning from Master Le, you can not only get Master Le's guidance and learn a lot, but also enter a higher level circle and meet many celebrities. Moreover, the status of Master Le's disciple is very valuable and is very beneficial to the future career development."

Zhan Yiran said a lot of benefits, but Gu Nanyan responded to her with only four words.

"So what?"

Zhan Yiran was stunned by these four words and couldn't recover for a long time.

"Silly girl."

Gu Nanyan touched Zhan Yiran's soft head and said softly, "Let me ask you, why did you want to learn painting?"

Zhan Yiran said blankly, "Because I want to be like my elder sister-in-law, and I can paint a beautiful painting with a brush, and all the mountains and rivers are in my brush."

​​That feeling is really too desirable. Zhan Yiran still feels excited when she thinks about it now.

Gu Nanyan nodded: "You see, your original purpose of learning painting was not to learn from a famous teacher, nor to join the painting circle. Then why do you want me to learn from Master Le because of these meaningless things?"

"Painting is simply a love, and because of love, we gradually improve. We learn from teachers or discuss with like-minded people because of this love, and want to paint better and better. When you really paint very well, fame and fortune will follow.

Yiran, you have to remember this order. You like it first, then learn, the older you paint, the better you get, and finally you gain both fame and fortune.

If you are just for fame and fortune, then you don't need to learn painting.

You were born in the Zhan family, and you are rich."

Zhan Yiran seemed to be hit on the head, and the whole person was dumbfounded. It took a long time for him to come back to his senses, and he bowed his head to apologize to Gu Nanyan: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I have lost my original intention."

Gu Nanyan did not say anything.

You don't need to say too much to educate people, just give some pointers.

People who understand will understand at a glance.

And for those who don't understand, it's useless to talk about it for three days and three nights.

This time, Zhan Yiran seemed to be a different person. She was no longer like before, analyzing the techniques used by famous artists when she saw their works. If she analyzed correctly, she would be elated, but if she analyzed incorrectly, she would be depressed.

Now, Zhan Yiran began to experience it with her heart. She would be moved by the magnificence of the painting, and would be disappointed and lower her eyes because of the sadness of the painting. She immersed herself in it wholeheartedly.

She would also analyze the techniques, but she would not only care about the techniques like before.

After Gu Nanyan's guidance, she completely changed.

Zhan Yiran followed behind Gu Nanyan, quietly raised her eyes to look at Gu Nanyan's back, her heart was surging, and she couldn't calm down.

She felt so lucky, so lucky, that she met the best elder sister-in-law at the most confused and rebellious age.

The elder sister-in-law made her understand her heart and find her heart's desire, and also guided her and made her pure.

How could she be so blessed to meet such a good elder sister-in-law.

She must have done a lot of good things in her previous life to meet the elder sister-in-law in this life.
