Chapter 31 The Real Rich Man Arrives, You Must Read
Zhen Shuwang, who was originally planning to say hello to his grandparents first, went upstairs silently and returned to his room.
As the youngest child of the Zhen family, Zhen Shuwang, who had always been treated as a child, heard the elders in the family discussing him in the topic of "finding a partner" for the first time.
He had always thought that such things were far away from him. But as a child born in the 21st century, he knew very well that he absolutely could not join in the fun right now.
He planned to sneak back to the company early the next morning, but how could an animation artist like him, who had been working overtime for a long time, be a match for the elderly who went to bed early and got up early?
The next morning, before the sky outside was bright, grandmother Xu Yonghe used the most traditional "quilt-lifting method" to pull him out of bed before his alarm clock rang.
The cold wind in late autumn is far beyond the ability of ordinary people in their dreams to resist.
Especially when his belly button was free from the protection of the quilt, Zhen Shuwang woke up from his sleep almost instinctively.
He grabbed the phone on the bedside table and said speechlessly after confirming the time:
"Grandma, it's only half past five. Are you waking me up so early so that I can go to see the moon and count the stars?"
"What are you talking about? I'm asking you to get up quickly and bring breakfast to Wen Yan later."
"Send breakfast? No, grandma, there's no need for that."
"She lives in my house, which is less than 500 meters away from our villa. It's such a short distance. When she wakes up, we can just ask her to come over for dinner."
"That's different. Although she is your grandfather's apprentice, she is still younger than you and her generation is different. If you let her eat with us, she will be easily restrained."
"Why do you think your grandfather asked you to live back home to make room for her?"
"Hurry up and deliver the meal."
As Xu Yonghe spoke, he pulled up Zhen Shuwang, who was not yet fully awake.
"No, grandma, there's no need for you to let me leave so early."
"It would take me ten minutes at most to deliver a meal. Besides, she just came back from a business trip in Beijing yesterday, and she came across the calligraphy and painting that my grandfather dug out from the wall of the basement. Even if she is an iron man, she can't get up so early."
"Who told you to get up and go straight over there?"
"Put on this set of sportswear, and then run to Tongfu Inn and buy me breakfast according to the list I sent you."
Zhen Shuwang: "No, grandma, it's Tongfu Inn... It's about six or seven kilometers round trip."
"That's why morning exercise is so valuable. Don't be lazy and drive or ride a shared bike. This sports watch will synchronize your exercise data to my phone in real time. From today on, I will monitor your exercise volume every day. You must develop eight-pack abs before the end of this year."
"No, grandma, what's wrong with you? I... I'm going to die."
Knowing that exposing the conspiracy would only make it more difficult to deal with, Zhen Shuwang quickly agreed.
However, grandma didn't want to let him go just because he had the upper hand. She knocked on the bathroom door gently and said:
"Friendly reminder, the deadline I mentioned is the Gregorian calendar, not the lunar calendar."
"No, it's almost November now."
"I don't care. It's my freedom to assign tasks. Whether you can complete them is not a problem I need to consider. But of course, if your performance satisfies me, I will increase the reward as appropriate."
"I think you probably also hope to give a thick red envelope to your business partners during the Chinese New Year."
Zhen Shuwang's scream with toothpaste foam in his mouth could be heard from the bathroom.
Xu Yonghe: "Little one."
…
After a while, Zhen Shuwang, who had changed his clothes, walked downstairs with a lot of resentment. However, before he could leave the house, his grandmother, who had already been waiting at the door, put a white headband on his forehead as a complement.
"Pay attention to your image."
"I know." Zhen Shuwang said, and walked out of the house with a lot of resentment. Dean Zhen, who had just gotten up and came to the hall to watch TV, saw this and said with some pity:
"Aren't you being a little too hasty?"
Zhen Yuandao, who knew very well how his wife had stayed up all night last night, still did not approve of this kind of excessive intervention.
But Grandma Xu obviously didn't take her husband's opinion seriously. She just gently shook her low-motion positioning phone and said:
"What's wrong with that? I don't ask my grandson to be better than other people's children. But if the software can't compete, at least we should get the hardware right first."
"This is my greatest advantage inherited from my ancestors."
My grandmother, who has never suffered from poor looks since she was a child, is extremely confident in her genes.
If you don't have enough inner qualities, you can rely on your appearance to win. She believed that with Zhen Shuwang's appearance that perfectly inherited her family's advantage in appearance, as long as he got rid of the image of a nerd and dressed up well, he would definitely be able to make a good impression on Jia Wenyan.
She monitored the location information transmitted by the smart watch all the way, and sent WeChat messages to Zhen Shuwang from time to time to ask about his whereabouts after he arrived home.
Grandma: [What's going on? Is Wen Yan up? Are you stupid enough to just enter the password? ]
"No, I just opened the door after I sent a WeChat message and got a reply. But it seems like she worked overtime all night last night."
[I worked overtime all night... What do you mean, the "picture" that your grandfather dug out from the wall? ]
"Yes, I glanced at the guest room when I came in just now. Not only was the bed untouched, but even her suitcase was still unopened, just as it was when I left yesterday."
"She seemed to have spent the entire night yesterday repairing the Luoshen painting that my grandfather found. Grandma, if my grandfather is right next to you, please ask him to come over and take a look."
After Zhen Shuwang finished speaking, he turned on the camera on his phone and sent over the results of Wen Yan's work the previous night.
"What did the teacher say?"
Jia Wenyan, who had just gone to the bathroom to wash her face, asked curiously when she saw this.
"I'm not sure yet. That was my grandma's WeChat message. But you, did you stay up all night last night?"
"Not all night long. I took a short break in between. I also wanted to finish the work as soon as possible so that I could return to the museum to do the next work."
"Otherwise, it may be difficult to maintain the traffic of Yongan Museum over time just relying on the current exhibits of the museum."
After all, they worked in the same building, and Jia Wenyan had never thought of trying to put on a brave face in front of Zhen Shuwang.
It is true that the traffic of Yong'an Museum was very high when it held its first exhibition, but the problem is that it was just the result of the popularity of the Internet and the traffic during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.
Once these advantages of time and place are gone, and many state-owned museums adopt free admission policies, the Yong'an Museum, which only has a few exhibits, will find it difficult to have a stable source of customers even if it is very popular online.
Especially during the time when Jia Wenyan went to Yanjing on a business trip, even with the blessing of the National Day Golden Week, for most tourists who followed the trend, the purpose of their coming to the Yong'an Museum was mostly to get the hardcover edition of "Yuzhen Paste" which was released in limited quantities and for a limited time every day by the Yong'an Museum.
Zhen Shuwang, who has been working on the top floor of the Yong'an Museum, could not have been unaware of this.
To be frank, in the eyes of passers-by, the Yong'an Museum is more like a large cosmetics store with a special theme than a museum.
Therefore, Jia Wenyan must enrich the museum's collection as soon as possible in order to reverse this stereotype.
What's more, there is a dormant spirit in her sea of consciousness. She must complete the repair work at hand as soon as possible before she can help it reshape its carrier.
But in her haste, she apparently overlooked how shocking the painting skills she learned in the spirit space would be to ordinary people who were unaware of the situation.
When ordinary people see the paintings restored by Jia Wenyan, they may at most just sigh at the superb skills of the "original painter".
But for the Zhen family who had witnessed the damaged state of "The Goddess of Luo River" with their own eyes, the progress that Jia Wenyan produced in one night was completely beyond their understanding of ordinary painters.
Especially the most representative eye contact in the painting of Goddess of Luo River.
When the painting was damaged and "faded", it might not be obvious. But now the Luoshenfu picture, which has been restored by Jia Wenyan, does perfectly demonstrate the "ancient silk-line drawing" technique, and vividly portrays the characters.
"Wen Yan... this... was drawn by you last night."
"Although I don't know what the most complete painting of the Goddess of the Luo River depicted, in my opinion, the one you restored is definitely closer to the historical description of the painting of the Goddess of the Luo River than the several copies currently in other museums."
"You were able to repair it to this extent in just one night?"
Although he had seen the reality with his own eyes, Zhen Yuandao still couldn't help wanting to get a definite and affirmative response from Jia Wenyan.
"Um... Teacher, I am only restoring the outline of the original painting. What you are seeing now is just a sketch of the character that I inferred based on the original painting."
"I am only restoring the original silk. As for whether it should adopt my color scheme, it is up to you to decide."
"If you can achieve this effect, of course you should do it. But Wen Yan, wait until you have finished adding the colors. Don't rush to make the original public. First, draw a replica that is more suitable for exhibition based on the painting of the goddess of the Luo River."
"clear."
Jia Wenyan nodded. The original copy of "The Goddess of Luo River" was indeed shocking, but it was different from the previous "cultural relics" that were publicly acknowledged to be modern replicas.
Jia Wenyan must protect the original "The Goddess of the Luo River" more strictly.
She immediately promised Zhen Yuandao that she would finish the imitation as soon as possible. However, as soon as she said this, she was strongly opposed by Grandma Xu.
She just reached out and held down Zhen Yuandao, who was eager to try and ready to show off in front of all his old friends.
Xu Yonghe: "If you want to show off, don't rush it. Let the children have a good rest first. Just because you are old and don't sleep as much doesn't mean that other young people can endure as long as you."
"Wen Yan, it's a good thing that you work hard, but you can't let those people fool you and ruin your body. Listen to grandma and have a good rest first."
"When you have rested and regained your energy, grandma will take you to see my little treasury."
"My dowry is as valuable as any in a museum."
