Bai Yiyi's father was a soldier, so it stands to reason that he might prefer some Swiss army knives and the like.

But that's not the case.

Bai Yiyi told Chen Xiao that his father usually likes to read, and he specially transformed a side room into a study, which is specially used to put books.

During the Chinese New Year, Bai Yiyi used the sample books that Chen Xiao gave her to take home to fill her father's library.

Since you have a study, you still need to have simple decorations, and the best decoration in the study room is to hang a few paintings and calligraphy.

But reading books is just a special hobby for Bai Yannian, and he doesn't really want to show how elegant he is, so the two paintings in the study are just printed copies purchased online.

And Chen Xiao brought two paintings this time.

The first is a small painting, called "Mountain Town", which is a small town with the characteristics of a mountain city painted in ink, just like the style of a small town in the south of the Yangtze River that many people will paint.

It's just that the charm of each place is different, which requires grasping the different characteristics of each place, which is also the most difficult point.

There are so many paintings wasted, only this one is the one that Chen Xiao is most satisfied with.

Moreover, this painting has been specially framed, so even the packaging looks very beautiful.

As soon as Chen Xiao opened the gift, not only adults, but also children came to see it.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xiao opened the second painting.

This painting is much larger than the previous one, and it is a landscape painting.

Chen Xiao often practices landscape painting, so although this painting looks a little more spectacular and the scenery is more detailed, it is the one that takes the least amount of time.

Not that this painting is simpler.

On the contrary, landscape painting is more complex, and it is just a one-time painting.

"Wow, what a beautiful painting. "There are small children who make exaggerated noises.

"yes, that's a nice painting. ”

Uncle also said that although he didn't know much about calligraphy and painting, he didn't have to pay for two praises: "Especially this landscape painting, it is magnificent." ”

One large and one small, the two paintings were taken out, and it was obvious that everyone's focus was on the larger landscape painting.

Bai Yannian's eyes also lit up, these two paintings looked so stylish, if they could be hung in his study, it would be perfect.

couldn't help but feel that Bai Yannian's eyes were much gentler when he looked at Chen Xiao.

Who said you don't need to give gifts, and the family doesn't care much about these things?

In his opinion, it is not the right gift, if you can give a gift in the other party's heart when you meet, then whether the other party accepts it or not, it will increase a lot of impression points.

Not to mention anything else, in order to prepare a gift, you must have put a lot of thought into it, which shows that you attach importance to it, which is a plus.

Bai Yannian said: "Oh, Chen Xiao, if you sell these two paintings, they won't be cheap, right?"

Chen Xiao said: "I don't have much money, anyway, I painted it myself, so I don't need to talk about any money or not." ”

Bai Yannian thought about it, this painting was painted by Chen Xiao himself, isn't that as much as he wants?

But these two paintings are obviously attentive, so even if it is a good gift, he can accept it with peace of mind.

So Bai Yannian said with a smile: "Then I can accept it." ”

Bai Yiyi stuck out a head from the kitchen: "Dad, Chen Xiao also painted a landscape painting in the United States some time ago, and it was sold for 100,000 US dollars on the spot?"

Bai Yiyi didn't want his relatives to underestimate Chen Xiao, saying that he didn't want to spend money to buy gifts or something.

When she said this, of course, she wanted to give Chen Xiao a long face.

And, obviously, her purpose was achieved.

100,000 dollars?

"Hiss......"

As soon as Bai Yiyihua's voice fell, there was a sound of gasp, 100,000 ...... Dollar!

How much is that?

If you convert it to RMB, it will be 700,000 yuan.

Look at this landscape painting again, this is no longer a painting, but a piece of 100 yuan bills pasted together, these two paintings in your hand, that is a proper millionaire.

That's it!

For a moment, not only the other people in the room were a little stunned, but even Bai Yannian was a little dazed.

What's going on all this year?

Is a painting so expensive?

Then Bai Yannian said: "That's not good, these two paintings are too valuable, we can't accept them." ”

Chen Xiao said: "Uncle, I basically don't sell paintings much, and I used these two paintings to give them to you, I don't plan to sell them, if you return them to me, I may throw them somewhere, and finally put them in the corner to eat ashes, so that the meaning of the paintings will be lost." In my opinion, the function of a painting is to be appreciated, so please accept it, this is its true belonging. ”

These words are Chen Xiao's sincerity.

Of course, he is now qualified to say so.

Bai Yiyi poked her head out again: "Dad, you can accept it, these two paintings have been painted by Chen Xiao for a long time." ”

"Then I...... Just take it?"

"Take it. ”

"Okay, then I'll keep these two paintings. ”

Bai Yannian said: "Then Chen Xiao, can you tell me about these two paintings?"

"Absolutely. ”

After taking over the two paintings again, Chen Xiao said: "In landscape painting, 'wind' is blank, 'water' is brush and ink, and the colors in this landscape painting are relatively fresh and elegant.

There are several thatched houses on the mountainside, I mainly want to express the owner's leisure and the happiness of staying away from the world's disputes, there is a kind of "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing the South Mountain" of leisure and tranquility, this kind of paradise is still very enviable. ”

"Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan?"

Bai Yannian recited it, and only felt that this poem was very well written, and there was a sense of indisputability with the world.

couldn't help but glance at Chen Xiao at Bai Yannian.

If you are really talented, you can export it.

Chen Xiao didn't realize that he had unconsciously become a copyist again, and let his future father-in-law secretly praise him.

After a brief introduction to landscape painting, Chen Xiao began to introduce "Mountain City Town".

"Although this painting looks relatively simple, but the most important thing is the charm of the city, which I finally grasped, you see, is there a unique temperament of a mountain city?"

Uncle looked at it carefully and said, "Hey, don't say it, it seems that you really say it, you have a little feeling." ”

"So, that's what makes this painting even better than that landscape painting. Speaking of this, Chen Xiao is still quite proud, after all, this painting was painted by himself.

If he sells it, he thinks that this "Mountain City Town" will definitely sell for no less than the price of "Yunman Golden Gate Bridge".

It's just that other people only found out at this time that this small painting that they had been ignoring was the best?

If that landscape painting can be sold for 100,000 dollars, how much can this "Mountain Town" sell for?

For the first time, the others present felt that some people's money came so easily.
