Chapter 273: Drawing Portraits for Others
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
She sent Madam Yang to Huimin Medical Center in the afternoon, but Gu Yundong was still worried about leaving her alone in the newly rented courtyard.
Fortunately, Shopkeeper Cao’s wife was a good person and was also helping out at the medical center, so Gu Yundong asked her to take care of Madam Yang.
The other party naturally agreed. She knew that Miss Gu had given her family something good. This small favor was nothing.
Gu Yundong was wearing rough clothes, the kind that was very common on the streets.
After searching the spatial storage for a long time, she could not find any hair dye. Hence, she went to ask Shopkeeper Cao and knew that there were many things that could be used to dye hair.
Gu Yundong found an excuse to ask Shopkeeper Cao to create two hair dye solutions, one black and one white.
Now, she had dyed more than half of her hair white and tied her chest flat. Although she was not very mature, she still had some curves.
She put on some makeup, and when she turned around, she was a short old man.
Gu Yundong only left when she saw that she was fine.
Gu Yundong found a blacksmith shop according to the addresses she had previously gathered.
Two brothers owned this shop. It was said that they had a younger brother who went missing during the chaos. The two brothers found someone to draw a rough portrait and pasted the notice on the wall.
However, after such a long time, they were still nowhere to be found. There was only half of the notice left. Fortunately, there was an address on it.
When Gu Yundong walked in with his back hunched, the two brothers were stunned.
“Sir, what do you want? A scissor or a kitchen knife?”
Gu Yundong coughed and waved her hand. She said in a rough voice, “I don’t buy things. I saw a notice at the city gate. Are you looking for your brother?”
The two brothers looked at each other and were a little excited at the same time. “Sir, you’ve seen him? Do you know where he is?”
Gu Yundong shook her head and coughed again. “I’ve never seen him before.” Seeing their disappointed expressions, she added, “Even if I had seen him before, I wouldn’t have recognized him. Don’t you think about what the person in your portrait looks like?”
“It can’t be helped. We spent a lot of money to hire someone to draw it, but it’s nothing good.”
Gu Yundong shook her head. “I’ll help you draw a picture. Tell me what your brother looks like.”
The two brothers were stunned again. “Sir, we…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t take money. I’m just doing a good deed.”
With that, she took out a charcoal pencil and paper and laid them on the table.
“Tell me,” she urged impatiently.
The two brothers thought about it. She didn’t charge them, and it didn’t look like she was extorting them. In addition, they weren’t forging anymore, so why not give it a try?
Hence, the two of them spoke one after another and described their younger brother’s appearance.
Gu Yundong was becoming more and more proficient. It did not take long for a lifelike portrait to appear under the eyes of the two brothers.
The two of them were shocked. It was as if their younger brother was standing in front of them.
They looked up at Gu Yundong. “Grandpa, you’re too capable. Once this picture is posted, anyone who has seen our brother will definitely recognize him.”
“Alright, I’ll help you write down your address and information. You can paste it on that wall tomorrow morning.”
“Yes, we’ll post it tomorrow.” The two of them praised the portrait.
Gu Yundong left before they could react.
She went to the next address..
