Wife’s Funny Life - Chapter 35

Wu Anguo won the painting, but he was still a bit unwilling when he returned home. Sigh, originally, he had put in the most effort, but the share of the money was not much. After deducting that box of paintings, he had even less money, and with his meticulous calculations, he still hoped that there would be a miracle.

Recalling that Song Yihan was a foreign student who had vast experience, he might know what these paintings were. Thus, he decided to ask him about them. Perhaps, they might be very valuable objects.

Seeing that the boxes of western paintings were all painted by women, Song Yihan was shocked, “An Guo, maybe you found some treasures. These are oil paintings, judging from the brush strokes, they should be painted by a person. They are very valuable overseas. A single painting could be sold for tens of thousands! “But I’m not sure. Right, James’s wife, Emma, is a painter. I heard her say it last time, or I’ll wire her.”

Wu Anguo’s head buzzed when he heard this. This time, the bandits only got twenty or thirty thousand, so each person won’t get much. But there are ten paintings here, how much should we exchange them for?

He excitedly asked Song Yihan to handle this matter.

As for why there was a Western painting in the village, Song Yihan guessed that some rich kid spent a lot of money to buy it and admire it overseas before being robbed by crazy Ma. If the painter died, it would be worth a lot of money. It would also be a good investment, and Song had considered it before, but his ambition was not to earn money, but to make a revolution, so he did not think too much about it.

Xu Bao was quite pleased with himself. Song Yinhan had told him that paintings were worth a lot of money, and he had always exaggerated the value of cats.

At first, the cub really didn’t eat much like a cat, but now it was becoming more and more edible. The meat of a family was not enough for one cub to eat, and it also had a tendency to grow bigger and bigger.

Therefore, Wu Anguo ordered that in the future, he was not allowed to pull the big cat out to play. He could only lock it up. Furthermore, the problem of eating meat was solved by the little girl herself.

Xu Bao made a face at his husband, a stingy bag. It wasn’t like she hadn’t done it before anyway. Her fifty subordinates were already used to catching rabbits in the mountains every day. At worst, she would just let them catch hare and pheasant for a big cat to eat.

On the other side of Shanghai, James received the telegram and showed it to his wife, Emma. She was very excited because she loved oil paintings from the bottom of her heart. When she heard that Xu Dazhi had a collection of canvases that might have been painted by the same artist, she was very surprised. She immediately called back to ask Song if she could take a few pictures and send them to her.

Song Yihan moved quickly. It was unknown where he got the camera from, but he took a photo of each painting and sent it to Emma.

Emma was struck by the beauty of the photograph. It was not the work of François Boucher of France, who was particularly good at painting young women, and it was said that he had given one of his paintings to Louis XV, then king of France, who was immediately taken in by the model, who became Louis XV’s favorite mistress. His painting was also known as a model of love and sex art. Almost two hundred years ago, many paintings were rare and precious. If it was found that it had actually drifted to China, it would definitely cause a sensation.

Emma was so excited that she immediately sent back a telegram, explaining the reason, but saying that she would ask someone in the profession to verify it, because even though she could tell whose work it was from the photo, it was still possible that it had been copied. If she could, she wanted to invite a few experts to take a look.

Wu Anguo wasn’t too excited about this. From what Emma said, the painting was very valuable. Although he couldn’t tell if it was real or fake, the things that the bandits hid shouldn’t be fake either. He wasn’t in a hurry to get rid of it since he wasn’t short on money right now.

Emma felt very regretful. If it weren’t for the news that Shanxi had been at war recently, she would have ran over to take a look.

Xu Bao, on the other hand, didn’t care how much this painting sold for. In her opinion, the ten paintings were priced at 1000 yuan each.

Wu Anguo didn’t want to part with her. He thought about how much it would hurt if that girl made a move. How much money could she get, how many bullets, and how much food?

However, there was nothing he could do about it. He thought about the little girl and felt that she didn’t have any friends. The teachers and wives treated her pretty well, and she didn’t seem like the other officials and wives were fond of her, so he didn’t try to stop them.

When the head teacher and his wife saw the painting, they were overjoyed. This girl, they said that she did not want the money for a few colorful and lousy Western paintings, and her brain was broken. She thought that it was just a rumor, but she did not expect it to be true. She giggled as she looked at Xu Bao and asked, “Sister, why are you so serious …” Did your man go back to scold you? ”

“No, big brother doesn’t want to scold me, she’s so fierce in front of others. I said I was going to give you a good thing, and he even praised me that I have credibility.” Xu Bao proudly said, completely ignoring the fact that he had been beaten up. There was also Wu Anguo’s reluctant and conflicted expression.

“Girl, what’s so good about this stuff? I don’t even know what’s going on in your head. This foreign woman isn’t even wearing any clothes, she’s so unconventional, tsk tsk …” The head teacher and his wife had a look of disgust on their faces, but they couldn’t help but sneakily glance at him.

When others said Xu Bao, Xu Bao did not care, but when the head teacher and his wife said so, she immediately did not care and retorted, “Big Sis Qiu, I’ll tell you in secret. Big Brother Song sent a telegram to that beloved horse asking about this horse, she said that it’s getting old and valuable, a painting can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, don’t tell anyone else.”

The head teacher’s wife saw Xu Bao’s silly look and just thought that her husband was trying to coax her. She felt that this girl was really lucky to be a fool. If she also went that day and dared to take this painting, her husband would definitely give her a slap.

Pilot Liu had been very happy during this period of time. Having just succeeded in exterminating bandits could be considered his political achievement. He had even received a lot of money and was praised by the Commander.

However, there was one thing that gave him a headache. He heard that Commander Feng was going to have a birthday feast soon, so he didn’t know what to send him. The commander was a person who had seen much of the world. He was usually unable to take things out, but it meant that he was not sincere. If he took too much money, then he would seem to have too much money. Officer Liu rubbed the back of his head. He was truly worried.

During dinner time, Qiu Lingzhu was very noisy as usual. Although she was a teacher and his wife, she still couldn’t get rid of her habit of eating and talking, especially when she was at home. Moreover, she didn’t have any scruples and didn’t pay attention to her husband’s thoughts.

“Old Liu, do you think my sister is stupid? She actually sent me a painting today. It’s that western painting. Tsk! Tsk! I thought people were joking, but I didn’t expect that it really happened. It’s funny, not funny. ” Qiu Zhu bent over and smiled at her husband.

Seeing his wife’s reaction, Senior Liu gave a “hmph” and gave his reply.

Qiu Lingzhu responded and said more actively, “There’s something even more hilarious. Sister actually said someone had sent a telegram to the two foreigners who came here last time. That foreigner actually said this painting is worth tens of thousands of yuan. Hahaha, if you really said it was worth tens of thousands of yuan, why didn’t anyone else take it? Hahahaha …” It’s really too funny! ”

“What?” Say that again? ” Hearing several tens of thousands, Master Liu was agitated.

“Hahahaha …” It’s really too funny! ” Qiu Pearl repeated the same expression.

Elder Liu really wanted to beat this woman to death. “No, it’s just a sentence!”

“Oh, and there’s something even funnier. Sister actually said someone from Song Dynasty sent a telegram to the two foreigners who came here last time. That foreigner actually said this painting is worth tens of thousands of yuan, ha.”

“Enough.” Elder Liu helplessly looked at his foolish wife and interrupted her.

After a quick meal, he got someone to call Wu Anguo over.

“An Guo, what did you say about the painting?” Senior Liu was very amiable, hurriedly asking Wu Anguo the moment he entered the room without waiting for his salutations.

Thus, Wu Anguo reported everything that had happened, from the beginning to the end, without missing a single word, to Senior Disciple Liu.

Hearing that those paintings could be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, Teacher Liu really wanted to steal from them. The most valuable thing was just right under their noses. He was the first to pick one, so why didn’t he have a blessed wife like that?

However, things had already gotten to this point, and after knowing the price, Wu Anguo even generously gave him a painting. But things had already gotten to this point, and after knowing the price, Wu Anguo generously gave him a painting.

In the end, Commander Liu decided to give the painting to Commander Feng.

Qiu Lingzhu felt that her husband’s brain was broken as well. However, she was a woman, so she didn’t dare to disagree with her husband’s decision. She gave in without knowing why.

As expected, Commander Feng was very happy to see this painting. It was not that the commander knew about foreign paintings. Although he had visited the Soviet Union to examine them, he knew very little about them.

It was actually the Commander’s favorite sixth concubine, a foreign student with an excellent family background who was learning how to draw western paintings. Seeing the painting that Master Liu had brought, she could not bear to part with it, so she naturally recognized the painting as well.

Commander Feng saw that his always-high sixth concubine really liked to praise, and knew that Little Liu had really put in a lot of effort. Considering the strategic direction of Shanxi, he also felt that he should add more responsibility to Little Liu.

Thus, a month later, because of his outstanding political achievements and outstanding military achievements, Officer Liu was promoted to the rank of Commander seriously.

Senior Disciple Liu, no, now it’s Commander Liu, he’s overjoyed. He knows this is an illustrious record, and his military exploits are outstanding … It’s all bullshit, and it’s not the problem with the commander not liking you.

Since Commander Liu had been promoted, naturally he was promoted as well. He did not forget to dig a well if he was fed water. If it wasn’t for the painting sent by Wu Anguo’s wife, he would not have gotten it today.

At night.

Xu Bao hugged Wu Anguo and asked, “Big brother, when will you be promoted? The commander has been promoted, so there’s a lot of meat for us to eat! ”

Wu Anguo said seriously, “It’s not as easy as you think. Sleep well.”
