What If Antiques Could Talk?

Before Jin Mutong took over Pin Gu Zhai, she was just an ordinary person among the masses. Then one day, she came into contact with a mysterious ancient painting. From then on, she began to hear sounds no one else could hear. After that day... A top-tier restorer: "It's been restored well enough. No one could uncover the true details of its history. A perfect restoration is impossible!" An antique expert: "This porcelain was definitely made during the Ming dynasty. I've been appraising antiques for years. How could I be wrong?" A TV station: "We regret that this craft has been lost to history forever. Its tradition ended with the previous generation." But what Jin Mutong heard was completely different. An antique restored by a top-tier restorer: "Sob, sob. Miss, he made me look so ugly! I used to be much prettier. I'll tell you what I looked like. Could you help me fix myself up?" An appraised porcelain vase: "Holy crap, my Qing dynasty imitation actually passed as the real thing! Amazing, amazing, 666! If that old man knew, he'd be jumping out of his grave with joy." A cultural relic deemed forever lost: "My friend, would you be willing to learn from me and pass this craft on?" Without realizing it, Jin Mutong experiences a life she never dared imagine and hears countless moving stories preserved in the long river of history. At last, she looks at the ancient painting that changed her life. "Why did you choose me?" The painting falls silent for a moment, then smiles faintly. "Because it could only be you." I'm so lucky to have met you. May I hear your story? Reader's Guide: 1. Daily updates before the paid chapters, three updates a day afterward.
