Chapter 144 Portrait
In addition to Aunt Fuya from the third grandfather and grandma's family, there is also her biological aunt Gu Daya's family.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu wanted to sell Gu Daya, but Gu Daya didn't want to and ran away with a salesman. I haven't been back to my parents' home in these years. I only asked someone to bring a letter and a few taels of silver to Gu Dashan, saying that I was very good.
Gu Dashan has always been worried. He once wanted to visit Gu Daya's husband's house, but he was delayed because of his livelihood.
When he was escaping from the drought, he passed by Mingshan County where Gu Daya was married. Gu Dashan took advantage of the break and ran to inquire about Gu Daya's family, but unfortunately found nothing.
Gu Jinli knew that Gu Daya was Gu Dashan's heart and always wanted to find this sister; looking at the third grandfather and the third grandmother, the two elders' wish for the rest of their lives was to find their daughter and her family. She thought for a while and asked: "Third grandfather Third Grandma, do you still remember what Aunt Fuya looks like?"New novel chapters are published on
The third grandpa and the third grandma nodded: "I remember, how could I not remember."
Fuya is their only child in this life. Even if they die, they will never forget Fuya's appearance.
Gu Jinli said: "Otherwise, you tell me what Aunt Fuya looks like, and I'll draw it. Let's draw Aunt Fuya's face, and then ask Uncle Shang to help find someone. Or we can offer a reward to find someone ourselves, if someone can help. If there is any news about Aunt Fuya's family, or if he can bring Aunt Fuya's family to us, we will reward him."
The third grandfather and the third grandmother were very moved when they heard this. Although they were not rich, they were willing to spend all their money to find their daughter's family.
but
Is this okay? the third grandma asked worriedly: We are outsiders and dont know many people. Even if we are willing to give money, others will not go all out to find us?
Gu Jinli pointed to the tofu in the yard and said: "Third Grandma forgot, we still have tofu business. There are many people coming to our house to sell tofu, we can ask them to help pay attention. They want to carry tofu to other places to sell, run away There are many places, maybe someone will meet Aunt Fuya."
Those who pick tofu to sell are like sparks. As long as they are scattered, the news will be received one day.
After hearing this, the third grandpa and the third grandma were so excited that their eyes were red. The third grandma choked and said, "Okay, that's it. Let's talk about it. You and An Ge'er will paint."
Gu Jinan was very surprised by this, but he didn't ask any more questions. No matter how much he asked, Xiaoyu still said "I learned it from others on the way to escape the wilderness" or "I figured it out myself."
Gu Jinan is a smart person. After a few times, he no longer asks his sister questions that cannot be answered, but only helps her cover up these skills.
However, he liked Xiaoyu's painting style very much, so he asked Gu Jinli to teach him and he painted while learning.
Drawing portraits is not an easy task. Even with the three grandfathers and grandmother as two similar reference points, it still took Gu Jinli more than half an hour to finish the portrait of Gu Fuya. After revising it, he handed the finished painting to them. look.
On the paper is a woman with a woman's hair in a bun, a round face, round eyes, a high nose, a thin and upturned mouth, and a natural smile. There are wrinkles on the forehead, fine lines at the corners of the eyes, and two deep nasolabial folds on the sides of the cheeks. He looks like he is in his mid-thirties.
This is what Gu Jinli deliberately painted in Nian Laoli.
Although the third grandma said that Gu Fuya was only thirty-two years old, the peasant family had to be at least a few years older after fleeing from famine for more than half a year.
The third grandpa looked at the portrait and was very shocked. He kept saying: "It looks like your Aunt Fuya, at least about 70%."
Having a seven-part portrait is enough. Anyone who has seen this portrait will definitely recognize Fuya when they see her again.
The third grandma looked at this portrait and burst into tears: "Fuya, this is my Fuya."
The third grandpa thought about his daughter and couldn't help crying, but he held it back and reminded the third grandma: "Take it easy, Xiaoyu finally painted this, don't shed your tears on the painting. If this painting is damaged, we wont be able to find Fuya.
When the third grandma heard this, she quickly put away her tears, put the portrait back on the table, stood by the table, looked at the portrait from a distance and shed tears.
Gu Jinli looked at Gu Dashan and asked him: "Dad, have you remembered?"
Gu Dashan nodded and said, "I haven't seen your Aunt Daya for nearly twenty years. I only remember her appearance when she was young..."
Gu Jinli said: "It doesn't matter, you tell me, I will paint Aunt Daya into the old age."
