Gu Ya inadvertently revealed to Prince Ning about his and Wen Painter’s affair, which Prince Ning probably told Princess Baolu, so it was no surprise that Princess Baolu pestered him to take her to find Wen Painter as soon as she arrived.
Not asking any more about the Princess’s affairs, Su Yunjin now just wanted to find Wen Painter and persuade him to help paint portraits of Madam Qin’s two children.
In the past, Su Yunjin was worried that even if she found Wen Painter, considering his temper and personality, he might refuse and not agree to paint for Madam Qin’s children.
Now, after hearing Gu Ya’s words, Su Yunjin was secretly delighted. Great, if Wen Painter and Gu Ya have a friendship, then asking Wen Painter to paint for Madam Qin would be much easier.
Su Yunjin was making a small calculation in her mind.
Wen Painter, considering Gu Ya’s face, probably wouldn’t refuse her request. Moreover, if Wen Painter goes to paint for Madam Qin’s children, the reward from Madam Qin would certainly not be low. With the prospect of earnings, Wen Painter should have no reason to refuse.
However, thinking of this, Su Yunjin quickly denied it. People like Wen Muyan probably do not care about wealth and riches. Such people always rely on their talent with pride.
Money and such probably don’t hold much allure in the eyes of people like Wen Painter. Otherwise, Wen Painter wouldn’t have gone to live on a remote mountaintop.
Especially considering Wen Muyan’s artistic skill, if Wen Muyan wanted to make money with his skills, he’d stay in a prosperous place like Jincheng, which is the place to make money.
Wen Muyan traveled thousands of miles to this small village and built a thatched cottage on the mountaintop, showing clearly that Wen Muyan is soone who doesn’t care for silver.
Fortunately, Gu Ya and Wen Muyan have a connection, which gives Su Yunjin a bit more chance of success.
"Husband, Madam Qin wants to find a painter to do portraits for her two children, but can’t find an appropriate one at the mont. I think Wen Muyan is excellent with his art. How about you help out? Just speak to Wen Painter and say Madam Qin wants him to do a portrait and see if Wen Painter agrees?"
Su Yunjin smiled sweetly at Gu Ya.
For his little wife’s request, Gu Ya did not imdiately agree. After a mont of silence, Gu Ya finally spoke, "Yun Niang, I will speak to Wen Painter about it, but whether he agrees or not still depends on him." Gu Ya had a rapport with Wen Muyan, but it didn’t an he could force him to agree to this.
All Su Yunjin wanted was for Gu Ya to help her ask.
With Gu Ya speaking like this, Su Yunjin, of course, had no objections at all, "Sure, husband, just help ask. Whether Wen Painter agrees or not, I won’t insist. Is this good?" Su Yunjin looked like she was very understanding.
People like Wen Muyan rarely make friends with others. Since Wen Muyan and Gu Ya are friends, it surely ans Wen Muyan truly regards Gu Ya as a friend. If a friend asks him to help paint a picture, Wen Muyan is unlikely to refuse. Su Yunjin was very confident about this.
Gu Ya looked at his cunning little wife, feeling a bit of a headache.
The little woman just knows how to cause trouble for him.
And yet, he still couldn’t refuse.
······
The last ti at Madam Qin’s residence, Su Yunjin t two ladies, one was Mrs. Lu, and the other was Mrs. He. Su Yunjin had a rather good impression of both ladies.
While at the Qin Residence, Mrs. Lu ntioned they would find a ti to visit her and Gu Ya another day, which Su Yunjin thought was just a polite remark.
Yet, only a few days later, Mrs. Lu and the others actually ca together to visit.
