"What do you mean?"
"The person my brother is looking for is indeed not here, but I heard something strange."
"What news?"
"Well, it seems like they are going to auction not one painting, but two paintings."
Two paintings?
Gu Nuan quickly recalled that according to Xiao Shuju and Xiao Shuzhu, the four sisters each had a painting. They've only seen the one belonging to Xiao Shuzhu. As for Xiao Shumei's painting, it's unclear whether her husband has contacted the Zhao Family to confirm it. Excluding Xiao Shumei's, Xiao Shuju's painting and Xiao Shulan's could indeed end up in an auction.
Could it be that these two paintings are the ones referred to here?
Zang Xiaolian said, "I'm not quite sure yet. I'm currently trying to gather information from all around, to find out what's going on. Is there any connection between these two paintings, and why is the auction house selling them together?"
"Wait a moment," Gu Nuan said, "first find out where the painting came from."
