It can be considered what I imagined it to be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya looked at it carefully. The brush and ink of this painting were still relatively immature, but one could already see Xia Zhu’s spiritual energy. You know, Xia Zhu had only learned to paint from Su Xinghui for a few months and had only learned traditional Chinese painting for more than a month. To have such a level, her talent was really too good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya nodded and praised a few words, then asked, \"Xia Zhu, why are you painting this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Zhu said, \"Isn't it because your mother asked me to create my own original works, and Deputy Manager Li also said he wanted me to create an original work to participate in next year’s Canton Fair, so I wanted to create a bamboo weaving painting with our Wild Boar Gully Village as the background.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya nodded and said, \"Your idea is good. The scenery here is too beautiful. If you can weave such a work, it will definitely be very popular.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui smiled and said, \"Xia Zhu, you have to take this path in the future. Always copying other people’s works, no matter how well you copy them, they are ultimately other people’s things. The things you create yourself have your own soul and your own style. Therefore, this work of yours will be very important to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Zhu said shyly, \"It’s a pity that my painting is still too poor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya was surprised and said, \"You still think this is poor? How long have you learned? I see many people who have studied in the Art Academy for a year or two, and they are only at your level. Your progress is really too fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Zhu said, \"Isn't this because Brother Xinghui taught well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui said, \"It’s also because you learned fast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya said, \"Xia Zhu, I originally wanted to ask my mother to contact the Art Academy and let you go there to study for a year or two, but now it seems unnecessary. You have learned quite well following Su Xinghui.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Zhu said, \"Go to the Art Academy to study? That won't work. I don't have time now. I have to make money to support my family, otherwise our family will have no income.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya nodded and said, \"Yes, I thought too simply. You really don't have time to study. But you can go to Jiangcheng to play when you have time in the future. You can't always stay in Wild Boar Gully. The bigger the world you have seen, the broader your creative ideas will be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Lu Xiaoya’s words, Xia Zhu nodded gently. Her face was full of longing. She had grown up so big and had never been to Jiangcheng. For her, Jiangcheng was the biggest city, and she was also full of yearning for big cities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a busy morning, the villagers loaded all the goods onto the truck. Fang Youcai happily kept the guests to have lunch at his house. Seeing that the hospitality was hard to refuse, the guests could only have a meal at his house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Youcai and several other village cadres pooled their money to buy a pheasant and a bamboo rat at the breeding farm to entertain these distinguished guests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deputy Manager Li joked, \"We can’t come too often in the future, otherwise we will eat you poor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Youcai laughed loudly, \"I wish you could come every day. If you come every day, we will have good hospitality every day. You will definitely not eat us poor. On the contrary, we want to get rid of poverty and get rich, and it depends on you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words of the two made everyone at the table laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After lunch, Deputy Manager Li and Yu Gaoshan had to rush back. Now the Shangmeng road was under construction, and the road was not easy to walk, so they had to set off early.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Lu Xiaoya was a bit reluctant, she still got on the van. She said to Su Xinghui, \"Remember to go to Jiangcheng to see me next time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xiaoya smiled at Xia Zhu again, \"Xia Zhu, go to Jiangcheng with Su Xinghui when you have time, and I will take you to play well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Zhu also nodded and said, \"Okay, I will definitely go when I have time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui got on the car with them, got off at the township government, and then waved goodbye to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the township government, Su Xinghui saw Xu Xiaoguang. Xu Xiaoguang was washing his face with a splash at the faucet in the yard. It looked like he had just returned from the construction site.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui said, \"Xiaoguang, you are back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xiaoguang finished washing his face, looked up and said, \"Yes, just returned from the construction site, rest for a while, and then go again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Xiaoguang hadn't been back for a while. During this period, he stayed at the construction site every day and even slept in the construction shed. This was a rare return to the township government to have a good rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After washing his face, Xu Xiaoguang fetched water to take a bath. He said he hadn't had a good bath for half a month, and today he specifically came to the township government to take a bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui knew Xu Xiaoguang’s personality. Although he liked to play games, when there was something to do, he was never ambiguous and could endure hardship. He hadn't seen him for a while, and he had lost a lot of weight, and his face was also stubbly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Xu Xiaoguang finished his bath, he washed a few pieces of clothes. When he was doing projects outside, he did these things himself, so he was used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he finished everything, Su Xinghui went to his room and chatted with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The progress on the road construction site was quite good. This road was not newly built, but renovated and widened on the original basis. Therefore, the workload was much less than building a new road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since it was about to enter winter, they could only dig open the old road and do some earthwork.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just chatting with Xu Xiaoguang, Su Xinghui’s pager rang. He looked at the pager, and it was a phone number in the county seat. He was preparing to go to the Post and Telecommunications Bureau to return the call, but the pager rang again, still the same phone number, and this phone number rang three times in a row.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This must be someone looking for him for something urgent. Therefore, he went to the Party and Government Office to return the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dialing the phone, it was picked up after only one ring: \"Is it Xinghui? It’s Brother Gaoshan! Our truck was detained by the traffic police in Shangjun County.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xinghui’s face sank: \"Brother Gaoshan, don’t be anxious, speak slowly, are your documents and procedures incomplete?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Gaoshan said, \"Impossible, this truck of mine was bought not long ago, and all procedures are complete. The wild game sold by the special breeding farm also has procedures, and we also have procedures for transporting and breeding wild animals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Was the truck carrying bamboo weaving also stopped?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, our two trucks were one in front of the other, and both were stopped.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then did they say why they stopped your cars?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1277,"2026-06-16T17:50:40.887Z","2026-06-16T17:54:29.625Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","d73db5502d71ae3a873e380f5463c082e26344ecc2b4601589667bcffafa1a6e","the-romantic-path-to-success-chapter-89","the-romantic-path-to-success-chapter-87",572,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-romantic-path-to-success-cover.jpg"]
