Chapter 182 181, get out of the way, the son-in-law is pretending to beep (two in one)

"Boy friend?"

Zheng Xiaohai, who still wanted to perform well after meeting, was a little disappointed.

Zheng Guangrong was also a little surprised: "Mengmeng already has a boyfriend?"

The nephew came to see him today and brought many gifts, including this painting by a famous contemporary painter that he brought to appreciate with Guan Weimin.

During the chat, his nephew tactfully expressed his desire to get to know Guan Mengmeng. Zheng Guangrong immediately understood what his nephew meant and immediately made sure to bring his nephew over to meet him.

However, now I have learned that Guan Mengmeng has a boyfriend.

“Laoguan, when did Mengmeng have a boyfriend? I’ve never heard of you mentioning it.”

Zheng Guangrong asked rather depressedly.

“It didn’t take long, about a month.”

“You heard it just now, Mengmeng’s boyfriend has only been with me for a month, you still have a chance.”

“You can get a relatively affordable price. If you like his painting style, I will send you one later.”

Zheng Xiaohai changed the topic to the painting he gave to his third uncle.

Zheng Guangrong, who understood his nephew's intentions, began to unravel the situation.

Guan Weimin took out a magnifying glass from the drawer, looked at the painting carefully, and then nodded appreciatively: "Not bad, very impressive."

If the future son-in-law can really give him paintings and calligraphy works according to his preferences, then he is considered to be careless.

Zheng Guangrong unfolded the scroll. This is a picture of "Tiger Descending the Mountain". The author is Xu Ning. He is a relatively young contemporary painter. He is not famous, but his level is still good.

“Such an expensive painting?” Guan Weimin shook his head.

“That’s so embarrassing!”

“According to the development momentum of this painter, the value of this painting will double before long. If it develops well, it is not impossible to double it several times.”

“Uncle Guan, let’s take a look at the painting.”

 Guan Weimin recalled the last time he saw Yang Hao. In fact, it was less than a month, but he didn't want to make the time too short.

Zheng Guangrong said in a low voice.

"I'm home!"

“For the people, come out quickly, Mengmeng and Xiaohao are back!”

“Xiao Hai, behave well.”

Zheng Xiaohai said with a smile.

“After all, we haven’t spent that long together.”

“Uncle Guan, actually I know this painter Xu.”

At this time, Xu Yanfen’s voice sounded outside the study.

When he heard that Guan Mengmeng's boyfriend had only been dating for a month, Zheng Xiaohai's mind immediately became active again.

“You’re getting off work early!”

“Yes, yes, look at the painting.”

“Third uncle said that you are very good at drawing animals.”

“Just ask Mengmeng and you will know!”

Zheng Guangrong said: "Lao Guan, you can be regarded as a prospective son-in-law. Why don't you know how to play into his favourites?"

With such a short relationship, the relationship may not be stable.

ˆ Guan Weimin waved his hand: "My cute boyfriend doesn't know that I like these things."

Guan Weimin hurriedly came out of the study to greet him.

“Well, I’m confident.”

Zheng Xiaohai nodded confidently, and then his uncle and nephew followed him out of the study.

“Just not paying attention.”

If the father-in-law doesn't like this son-in-law, then breaking up is not far away.

Zheng Guangrong chuckled: "Lao Guan, if you don't have a good sense, this painter Xu's painting exhibition has been held in France. For this painting, my nephew spent 100,000."

Zheng Xiaohai stood aside with a smile on his face, and silently praised his third uncle in his heart. There were some things he couldn't say, but his third uncle and Guan Weimin had been neighbors for many years, and they knew each other well and there was nothing wrong with saying these things.

In the current social climate, it shouldn't be difficult for a high-quality returnee like me to steal someone from her boyfriend.

In fact, Guan Weimin had never thought about his "son-in-law" giving him calligraphy and painting works, but when Zheng Guangrong said this, he inevitably felt a little more hopeful.

“It’s obvious that this young painter has great potential!”

“Besides, the conditions of Mengmeng’s boyfriend are definitely not as good as yours!”

Yang Hao, who came in at this moment, had just changed into his slippers, and the picture frame he was holding instantly attracted the attention of Guan Weimin and the uncles and nephews of the Zheng family.

Guan Weimin nodded enviously. Although he liked calligraphy and painting very much, some of the calligraphy and painting works he collected were not valuable due to limited financial resources. The most expensive painting only cost more than 30,000 yuan, so it was not a treasure!

Guan Weimin was even more confused.

Just now, Zheng Guangrong said that his "son-in-law" was not serious!

In the end, they actually brought a painting over.

Don’t care whether it’s worth the money or not.

He is distracted!

“Uncle Guan, I heard from Mengmeng that you like calligraphy and painting.”

“I don’t know much about this thing. Take a look at this painting. Do you like it?”

As Yang Hao spoke, he raised the frame in his hand to a height where it was easier for Guan Weimin to view it.

His "Lion Picture" is a medium-sized painting with a size of 50cm*70cm, which is not too small.

"OK!"

“Majestic and majestic, it is worthy of being a lion picture!”

Works by famous artists always give people a bright feeling. Especially for calligraphy and painting lovers like Guan Weimin, the feeling of seeing an excellent work is even more indescribable.

“Xiaohao, stop holding it up!”

“Get to the study quickly!”

Guan Weimin said with a smile on his face.

"okay."

Yang Hao immediately took the framed "Lion Picture" to his study.

“Old Zheng, put your paintings away quickly.”

At the moment, what is on the desk is the painting "Tiger Descends from the Mountain" that Zheng Guangrong brought.

Although he was reluctant, Zheng Guangrong couldn't say anything. After all, it was his territory, so he had to roll up the "Tiger Descends from the Mountain" given by his nephew.

Of course, he was also curious about the paintings sent by Guan Weimin, his son-in-law.

Just a quick look at it, it seems okay.

But the subject of calligraphy and painting is too deep, even experts have a keen eye, let alone enthusiasts like them. Many paintings look good, but they are actually copies.

“By the way, Lao Zheng, this is Mengmeng’s boyfriend.”

“Xiao Hao, this is Lao Zheng who lives next door, and this is his nephew. They are here to let me appreciate the paintings!”

While introducing their identities, Guan Weimin also briefly explained why Zheng Guangrong and Zheng Xiaohai were at his home.

Actually, Zheng Guangrong was okay, but Zheng Xiaohai was at home, and he was afraid that his "son-in-law" would misunderstand him.

“Hello, Uncle Zheng.”

Yang Hao greeted him politely, and then nodded to Zheng Xiaohai as a greeting.

“Hello, Zheng Xiaohai.”

“I graduated with a master’s degree from Sorbonne University and just came back from France. Please take care of me when I develop in China in the future!” Yang Hao actually didn’t plan to make an introduction. After all, he was just a passerby.

As a result, the other party took the initiative to show off his academic qualifications and study abroad background.

The man riding the horse is obviously no ordinary passerby!

In addition, after this guy introduced himself, he subconsciously looked at Guan Mengmeng.

This purpose is very clear.

After knowing the other party’s intention, Yang Hao also reported his name: “Yang Hao.”

“Cute boyfriend!”

He didn't show off his academic qualifications or study abroad background like Zheng Xiaohai, but only briefly showed off his identity as "Guan Mengmeng's boyfriend".

But for Zheng Xiaohai, it was a sure win!

Sure enough, the corners of Zheng Xiaohai's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

He scanned Yang Hao again and cursed in his mind: Old silver coins!

Show off, right?

I will keep you happy for a few more days!

Whenever you cry!

Zheng Xiaohai looked at Guan Mengmeng again, with a gentleman's smile on his face: "Hello, Miss Guan, your cousin Feng Lina and I are high school classmates. We have met before."

"Oh, Hello."

Guan Mengmeng nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting.

Her thoughts and attention were now on Yang Hao, and she didn't pay any attention to Zheng Xiaohai, a passerby.

The main reason is that there is really nothing attractive about the other person. He is neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, neither handsome nor ugly. He is the kind of person who will disappear directly into the crowd and has no memory.

"This painting is actually by Gao Qifeng?" "Is it the original or a fake?"

At this time, Zheng Guangrong suddenly exclaimed.

He is a member of the Jiangcheng Painting and Calligraphy Association, so he is more professional than Guan Weimin, because Guan Weimin also applied to join the Painting and Calligraphy Association before, but his application was not approved.

Because if you want to join the Jiangcheng Calligraphy and Painting Association, you must either be a practitioner yourself or a collector.

 And Guan Weimin naturally followed the style of a collector, but the things he collected were really of little value, and the Painting and Calligraphy Association did not recognize his status as a collector.

Zheng Guangrong's voice immediately attracted Zheng Xiaohai's attention. In fact, he didn't understand painting, let alone who Gao Qifeng was. He immediately asked out of curiosity: "Uncle San, who is Gao Qifeng?"

One of the "Great Painters of the Republic of China, the Three Masters of Lingnan" and one of the founders of the "Lingnan School"! "

Zheng Guangrong naturally knew Gao Qifeng, a great painter of the Republic of China. After answering his nephew's questions, he took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and began to look at the paintings seriously.

As serious as him is Guan Weimin, and of course he also knows Gao Qifeng.

In the past two days, Gao Qifeng's paintings have become more and more expensive. If such a "Lion Picture" were authentic, it would cost several million!

Zheng Xiaohai silently checked Gao Qifeng and the recent transaction prices of his works, and then he was dumbfounded.

Public information from an auction house shows that in May last year, Gao Qifeng's "Songs and Cranes Prolong the Year" sold for 4.2 million!

Fake!

It’s definitely a fake!

How can a son-in-law come to your door and directly deliver paintings worth millions of dollars!

Zheng Xiaohai thought this way and said: "The calligraphy and painting market is very deep now, and there are fakes everywhere."

“If you want to buy authentic works, you still need contemporary painters”

Although he did not directly say that the "Lion Picture" sent by Yang Hao was a fake, he also expressed his thoughts implicitly.

But no one paid attention to him at this moment, because both Guan Weimin and Zheng Guangrong were looking at the paintings seriously.

Guan Mengmeng gently tugged at the corner of Yang Hao's clothes, then stood on tiptoes and whispered: "Your painting won't be the same as our relationship, right?"

Because the relationship between the two is fake.

So Guan Mengmeng wanted to tease whether this painting was a fake.

“Well, it’s the same as our relationship!”

Yang Hao smiled and nodded.

What he means is that the painting is real, so we are also real!

But now Guan Mengmeng still can't understand what he meant, so she only thinks that he admits that the painting is a fake.

Guan Mengmeng didn't care about this. She knew that calligraphy and painting were very expensive and ordinary people couldn't afford it.

So, where did so many authentic works come from?

It’s nothing more than mass copying.

However, my father took it very seriously.

Neighbor Uncle Zheng is also very serious

After a while, both of them put away their magnifying glasses.

“Old Zheng, what do you think?”

Guan Weimin couldn't wait to ask this old neighbor for his opinion.

“Looks like an authentic work”

“But, this is Gao Qifeng’s painting!”

“If it were authentic, a painting like this would cost several million!” Zheng Guangrong said, looking at Yang Hao subconsciously.

The other person seems to be quite talented, but he doesn’t look like someone who just gives away millions of paintings!

What's more, he is not a real son-in-law, he is just friends with Guan Mengmeng.

“I think it’s authentic too.”

Guan Weimin nodded, then looked at Yang Hao: "Xiao Hao, how much did you pay for this painting? Where did you buy it?"

“I bought it at the Antique City.”

Yang Hao first reported the address where he bought the painting, and then asked: "Uncle Guan, is there anything wrong with this painting?"

"has a problem!"

“It looks so much like the original!”

Guan Weimin frowned and said.

Hearing this, Yang Hao couldn't help but laugh: "Uncle Guan, what I give you is an authentic work!"

“There is no reason to send fakes”

"ah??"

“This painting is really an authentic work by Gao Qifeng??”

Guan Weimin was stunned. He looked at this "prospective son-in-law" in a daze and didn't know what to say.

Zheng Guangrong asked with shock: "Xiao Yang, how much did you spend on this painting?"

This question was also very curious to Guan Weimin. He asked it just now, but Yang Hao didn't answer. He just said that the painting was bought in the antique city.

Facing this question again, Yang Hao no longer avoided it. He said calmly: "Actually, the money is not important. What is important is that you like it, Uncle Guan."

"If you like it, Uncle Guan, the 3.6 million will be worth it!"

His!

How many? ?

3.6 million! !

Yang Hao finished speaking, and there was a sudden silence in the study.

The four people, including Guan Mengmeng, were all shocked.

After being stunned for a moment, Guan Mengmeng tugged at the corner of Yang Hao's clothes again and whispered: "Didn't you just say that this painting is a fake?"

“I didn’t say that!”

Yang Hao shrugged, this was the follow-up he was waiting for.

Under Guan Mengmeng's puzzled eyes, he finally revealed the answer: "You are asking whether this painting is the same as our relationship."

“My answer is: the same.”

“So, did I say it was a fake?”

"ah?"

Guan Mengmeng was a top student in the medical school after all, so she immediately understood the meaning of Yang Hao's words.

The painting is real!

So, their relationship is also real!

Guan Mengmeng's cheeks were slightly red, as if she had been teased.

At this time, Zheng Xiaohai, who had always pretended to be a French gentleman, finally couldn't hold back and said: "Are you sure this painting cost 3.6 million?"

“What’s uncertain about this?”

Yang Hao looked at the fake gentleman in confusion.

“Is there a certificate for such a large transaction?”

“Of course, the merchant issued a receipt, and I also have a transfer record here.”

Yang Hao is not someone who likes to be slapped in the face. He only occasionally comes to show his holiness to others, but now this fake gentleman is a bit annoying.

So Yang Hao directly threw the merchant receipt and the transfer record on the mobile banking in the face of the other party.

And Guan Weimin and Zheng Guangrong naturally came over curiously.

Then the three of them saw the conclusive evidence that this painting was indeed painted for 3.6 million.

"this"

“It actually cost 3.6 million!”

All three of them were shocked.

Zheng Xiaohai, who originally planned to expose Yang Hao's covertness of forcing the king, was also dumbfounded.

After being together for a month, I gave my girlfriend a famous painting worth 3.6 million yuan from her father!

This operation is simply suffocating!

What family dares to spend so much money!

 Or should I say there is something special about Guan Mengmeng that makes you want to stop and be fascinated by it?

“Laoguan, you actually have a famous painting worth 3.6 million yuan!”

“It’s not easy to apply to the Painting and Calligraphy Association again!”

Zheng Guangrong sighed after regaining his composure.

“Hey, that’s right.”

“If nothing else goes wrong, the guy selling paintings should also be in the WeChat group of our Jiangcheng Painting and Calligraphy Association!”

Zheng Guangrong said and opened the WeChat group nicknamed [Jiangcheng Calligraphy and Painting Association].

In the end, he didn't even have to look for it. At this moment, a person in the group with the nickname [Shopkeeper Wenpinxuan Hu] was chatting with the president of Jiangcheng Painting and Calligraphy Association about the fact that he had sold "Lion Picture", and even boasted about selling it. 3.6 million!

The clue is now closed!

The "Lion Picture" on the table is indeed an authentic work by Gao Qifeng!

Zheng Guangrong showed the content in the WeChat message to Guan Weimin, and then Guan Weimin immediately picked up the "Lion Picture" lying flat on the table. While touching the frame with care, he said: "This painting cannot be placed in the study. , I want to hang it in the bedroom!”

“Well, just hang it on the bedside, take off the supplementary wedding photo, and then hang up my "Lion Picture"

“Guan Weimin!”

"What do you want to do?"

At this moment, Xu Yanfen happened to walk into the study room with a fruit plate. Seeing that her old man wanted to take down the wedding photo and hang a "Lion Picture", she naturally disagreed.

"I want to hang this "Lion" worth 3.6 million yuan on the bedside of my bedroom!"

Guan Weimin said with a serious face.

“It’s just a painting, just put it in the study!”

"etc."

“How much is it worth???”
