Chapter 411 Chinese New Year 1



Chapter 411 Chinese New Year 1

In the blink of an eye, it was the time of the year - New Year's Eve. Because of the presence of the two little guys Pingping and An'an, the atmosphere at home became unusually warm and cheerful, full of the strong flavor of the New Year.

Perhaps because Gu Jiangzhou went to the front to join the war, Han Yunya did not feel as happy as expected during the New Year this year. Although she knew clearly in her heart that Gu Jiangzhou would be safe and sound with his ability and strength, her heart was still hanging and she could not calm down. Worry surged into her heart like a tide.

Grandma Gu, who was thoughtful, noticed some uneasiness in Han Yunya's mood. She patted the back of Han Yunya's hand gently and comforted her softly: "Xiaoxiao, don't be worried. You should believe that Qiyuan will return safely." These words seemed to be both a comfort to Han Yunya and a reassurance to herself.

Han Yunya's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, and she responded softly: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm fine, I just miss him a little bit." Her words revealed her deep attachment and longing for Gu Jiangzhou.

At this time, Grandpa Gu on the side smiled kindly and waved to Han Yunya, saying, "Xiaoxiao, come over here quickly."

After hearing the call, Han Yunya quickly stood up and walked quickly to where Grandpa Gu was. As she walked, she said, "What's wrong with Grandpa?"

When I got closer, I saw Grandpa Gu pointing at the neatly cut red paper on the table with a smile and said, "You come and write two pairs of Spring Festival couplets."

Obviously, Grandpa Gu was well aware of Han Yunya's superb and exquisite brush calligraphy skills.

When I think about this, it can be said that it was a completely accidental and wonderful fate. Back then...

One day as the sun was setting, Grandpa Gu finished his dinner and took Ping An for a leisurely stroll in the courtyard as usual.

Suddenly, he saw the window of the small study not far away was open, and a faint scent of ink drifted in with the wind. Out of curiosity, Grandpa Gu walked into the study and saw an unfinished calligraphy work on the desk. The handwriting was as natural and smooth as flowing water, and the strokes were strong and powerful yet soft and graceful, as if every word contained endless vitality and emotion. Just as Grandpa Gu was immersed in this wonderful artistic atmosphere, a slight sound of footsteps came from behind him. Looking back, it turned out to be Han Yunya standing at the door with a smile.

It turned out that Han Yunya was just itching to paint in the small study room, and she couldn't stop. Seeing that Grandpa Gu was so interested in her work, Han Yunya couldn't help but feel a little shy, but she still generously introduced to him the creative ideas and techniques of this calligraphy.

Grandpa Gu listened with great interest, nodded and praised from time to time, and exchanged his views and feelings about calligraphy art with Han Yunya. The two talked happily, and a long time had passed unknowingly. It was from then on that Grandpa Gu truly realized that this seemingly quiet and introverted little girl in front of him actually had such superb attainments in brush calligraphy.

"Okay! Grandpa, what do you say?" Han Yunya smiled happily.

"Write as you see fit." Grandpa Gu said this, but he was thinking in his heart how to write this couplet.

Han Yunya thought about it and decided to write a standard seven-character couplet.

Hengpi: All the best

First couplet: Smooth sailing and good luck every year

Second line: All the best, every step of the way

Banner: All seasons of health

First couplet: Everything goes well and auspiciously

Second line: May every family be happy and healthy forever

Banner: Peace in all seasons

First couplet: Happy New Year to the whole family

Second line: Peace and good luck come from within and without

After that, he wrote several more characters of "Fu" and put down his brush without paying any attention to Grandpa Gu who was standing beside him.

"Grandpa, do you think this is okay?" Han Yunya asked with a smile. Before Grandpa Gu could answer, the baby's voice could be heard.

"Mom, come quickly, come and see." The second child, An An, shouted loudly at the door.

I was so happy to celebrate the New Year in peace and safety that I haven’t rested since morning.

"I'll be right there." Han Yunya responded with a smile, lowering her head to tidy up. "Grandpa, do you think it's enough? If not, write more."

"That's enough. You go and accompany Ping An'an! We will take care of the rest." Grandpa Gu waved his hand and said with a smile.

When he saw the three couplets on the paper, Grandpa Gu smiled and thought to himself that Old Yan really had brought a phoenix to Qiyuan.

Suddenly, Grandpa Gu paused, his eyes narrowed as he stared at a word on the paper. Grandpa Gu became serious, looked at Han Yunya who was playing with two children in the yard, and sighed, but then smiled.
