At first Su Tong thought that Ye Xiaoxiao wanted to buy the ancient painting, so she invited him over in such a serious manner.

Then she looked at those Chinese paintings with freehand line drawings and bold use of colors.

The painting is good, but the paper is too poor.

"Is this... what you want to buy?"

Su Tong was in a dilemma. He thought it was okay to put the painting at home, but he didn't know which teacher created it.

"Not really. Please help me see if this painting is worth the money."

Ye Xiaoxiao kept whose painting it was a secret for the time being.

After carefully examining them, Su Tong said: "These paintings have very personal styles, and they should all be from the same person. It can be seen that the painter has a certain level of skill, but the lines seem a bit random.

If you want to buy it, a few hundred bucks is fine.”

Artworks are expensive, but after Su Tong said that, Ye Xiaoxiao felt relieved.

"Actually, these paintings were painted by my mother."

After Ye Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Su Tong took a while to react.

"Are you talking about your mother in Shiraishi Village?"

Ye Xiaoxiao nodded, "Yes."

Although Su Tong was embarrassed, he still asked, "Didn't you say before that Ye's mother was just an ordinary rural woman?"

Looking at the other person's work now makes her, an art student, feel ashamed.

The few hundred dollars I just mentioned are only for ordinary painters who have no fame.

If I become famous, it won't be a problem to sell these paintings for thousands of dollars.

This is how art is, you never know who will be lucky enough to become famous.

"Even though she said that, my mom is also an educated person, so I think she learned it from my grandma. As for whether she learned it from other people, I don't know."

Ye Xiaoxiao poured tea for Su Tong. "I suddenly asked this question this time because someone wanted to buy a painting from my mother. Her name seemed to be Lin Chan, and she was a woman about five years old."

All the news that Ye Xiaoxiao knew was from what Miao Cuifang said in the letter.

Su Tong suddenly grabbed Ye Xiaoxiao's arm excitedly.

The water in Ye Xiaoxiao's pot was about to spill, so she quickly stabilized it and put it aside.

"Teacher Lin Chan?" Su Tong raised his voice, "Is it really her? She is a famous Chinese painting artist of our time. She has taught several classes at our school before."

Ye Xiaoxiao: "I'm not sure if it's the teacher you're talking about. I'm also worried about being scammed."

Although the painting is not worth much, it might be useful in case you want to deceive others.

Su Tong now wants to fly to Shen City to meet the other party.

Unfortunately, even if she was sure of the other person's identity, she couldn't just go over and disturb him, especially not now.

"You're right. Teacher Lin Chan is not famous. It would be bad if someone pretends to be her."

Su Tong calmed down and analyzed carefully, "If it is really from Teacher Lin Chan, there is no need to worry, because he just likes to collect works with folk elements.

Moreover, although my aunt’s paintings are not technically perfect, they have a distinct style, which is the most precious thing for art students.”

Ye Xiaoxiao thought for a while, "Then I'll find a way to let my mother confirm whether the other person is Teacher Lin Chan."

Su Tong was thinking about something and was a little excited.

She was a seemingly literary beauty, and she danced with joy when she was excited.

Others thought Su Tong was a very cold person, and never imagined that she was actually very lively in private.

"Teacher Lin Chan has been on many TV shows and can be seen in newspapers and periodicals. I would like to recommend a few books to you. Ask your aunt to look for them at the local Xinhua Bookstore.

There is a photo of Teacher Lin Chan in the book, so we just need to compare it.”

This was a good idea. Ye Xiaoxiao asked which book it was and waited for Miao Cuifang to look for it.

"I wanted to ask Jiang Yi to look at these paintings earlier, but now that I have your approval and heard of Teacher Lin Chan's name, there is no need to do so."

Besides, Jiang Yi has been in the hospital accompanying his friend recently, so it is better not to disturb him if possible.

"Jiang Yi... He's great at drawing. You can show it to him."

Su Tong and Jiang Yi knew each other. They were both children in a military academy and were both art students.

Jiang Yi also participated in the art exhibition held in Beijing a few days ago.

Ye Xiaoxiao tilted her head, "Is it rare to see you praising someone?"

Su Tong shrugged his shoulders, "Painting is something that depends on talent. As for Wang... his talent is average, while Jiang Yi is the kind of person who was blessed by God."

Su Tong was studying in another place, while Jiang Yi was staying in the local art academy.

Although the school cannot represent a person's level, the fact that Jiang Yi was able to enter the country's top-ranked art academy can already illustrate his strength.

Ye Xiaoxiao comforted him, "You are also very good."

After Su Tong and Ye Xiaoxiao finished their tea, they lay on the carpet in the living room and chatted.

"Xiaoxiao, I suddenly want to fall in love."

Su Tong suddenly said this.

Ye Xiaoxiao: "Do you have a goal?"

Su Tong shook his head, "No."

She just has too high requirements for looks, so she can't find a partner.

Ye Xiaoxiao got up and looked at Su Tong, "Then let me introduce one to you?"

But she hasn't thought about who is a good match for Su Tong yet.

This kind of artistic beauty is better off finding a science nerd...

Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, "How about I introduce my brother to you? You two go to school in the same city."

Su Tong: "You mean Harbin?"

Ye Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously, "National Defense University, isn't it quite close to your Academy of Fine Arts?"

"It's indeed quite close, but you are in Beijing now. Can you introduce a long-distance relationship to you?"

Su Tong didn't hear clearly at first, "You also said that was your brother..."

Ye Xiaoxiao patted her best friend's shoulder and said, "Just wait, I'll take care of this."

It's not a long-distance relationship. He is still studying for his master's degree and will probably come to Beijing to work after graduation, so you two will be close by then.

When you paint, you usually travel around the country to sketch, so you don't have that much time to spend with your subjects.

Listen, making money is much more important than being with you."

Su Tong was amused by Ye Xiaoxiao's words.

She just had that thought at the beginning, and she didn't say that she would find a boyfriend right away.

However, after Ye Xiaoxiao said this, Su Tong became a little interested.

"Is he your biological brother? Does he look like you?"

If he looks similar to Xiaoxiao, then she might really like him.

"Of course it's my brother, the handsome one, the one who stands out from the crowd among men."

Ye Xiaoxiao was not exaggerating, Ye Changsheng was really handsome.

Still that kind of gentle and refined handsomeness.

It is very suitable for a beauty lover like Su Tong.

Su Tong lay back down, "Then wait and see what your brother, who stands out from the crowd, looks like."

Ye Xiaoxiao: "I will definitely not let you down."

Who would have thought that the heavy responsibility of helping her best friend get out of being single would be handed over to Ye Xiaoxiao.
