Chapter 503: Art Gallery
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xia Wan quickly found Liu Hua in the cla.s.sic reading area. Liu Hua was engrossed in a translated version of “Gone with the Wind.” Xia Wan walked over and explained her intention to Liu Hua.
Reluctantly, Liu Hua placed the book on the shelf, turned around, and couldn’t help but look back again.
Xia Wan looked at Liu Hua, then walked towards an elder not far away.
“Please lead the way,” Xia Wan respectfully said to the elder.
The elder’s face was full of excitement as he said to the two girls, “This way, please.”
The three left the bookstore and walked straight down the street to the right for a few hundred meters before turning into a narrow alley.
While walking, the elder introduced them, “This gallery is owned by a friend of mine in the county town. Although it’s a bit remote and small, it indeed contains many treasures!”
The elder became more and more excited as he spoke.
Xia Wan and Liu Hua followed behind, remaining silent.
It wasn’t until they turned into the third alley that Liu Hua couldn’t help but tug at Xia Wan’s sleeve: “Xia Wan, could there be any danger?
“We’ve already come quite far, and this old man…”
Xia Wan gently patted Liu Hua’s hand and shook her head, “Don’t worry, I’m Although Xia Wan trusted that the elder was a good person, she didn’t let her guard down.
She had already prepared the silver needles in her sleeve, ready to use them if anything seemed wrong.
After about half an hour’s walk, the elder finally slowed down.
Since the county town was not very large, they had already reached its outskirts after all the twists and turns.
This area was less bustling than the town center, with very few shops, appearing somewhat desolate.
Liu Hua instinctively tightened her grip on Xia Wan’s arm, looking around warily.
Xia Wan’s gaze was fixed on the elder until he turned into a deep alley and stopped at the entrance.
“How much longer until we arrive?” Xia Wan asked the elder in front.
The elder immediately stopped, turned back, and apologized, “I’m sorry, due to limited funding, the gallery is a bit out of the way.”
“It’s just two more alleys ahead.”
Xia Wan observed the elder’s attire, which looked proper but somewhat outdated.
She nodded and signaled for the elder to continue leading the way.
Indeed, after crossing two more alleys, they saw a road made of dirt and stones, leading to a small wooden and stone structure at the end.
There was nothing around the small house; it stood there abruptly, as if it could collapse at any moment.
Xia Wan could feel Liu Hua’s anxiety and squeezed her hand, smiling rea.s.suringly at her.
“Don’t be afraid, it’s okay.”
However, Xia Wan’s comforting words didn’t really soothe Liu Hua, whose palms were still sweaty.
Xia Wan regretted bringing Liu Hua to such a place, causing her to worry.
But since they were already there, even if they wanted to go back, it would take a long time without the elder’s guidance.
When they arrived at the front of the small house, they saw a wooden sign hanging outside.
The sign had a traditional Chinese character (meaning “none” or “nothing”) written in wild cursive style.
Xia Wan raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself that this was probably the stubbornness of the artist.
But with such a location and a sign that provided no clear indication, who knew what this place really was!
The elder pushed open the double wooden doors and led Xia Wan and Liu Hua inside.
As soon as they entered, the elder called out, “Old Zhao, come out, I’ve brought two young friends to see you! You’ll definitely like them!” Hearing this, Liu Hua’s heart started to race for some reason.
She gripped Xia Wan’s hand tighter.
Xia Wan patted Liu Hua’s hand rea.s.suringly again, while looking around the room.
The entire house was made of wood and stone, with walls, floors, and furniture all combining these materials.
To call this place a gallery seemed less fitting than calling it a small art exhibition hall.
Aside from dozens of paintings hanging on the walls, there were also various clay sculptures, ceramics, and wood carvings on several display shelves.
In a corner, Xia Wan even noticed some embroidery pieces..
