The Suzhou Museum currently has three cultural relics donated by Gu Tinglong and Gu Xuefen's father and son.
A stone well ring donated by Gu Shufen's father, Gu Tinglong, in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The Southern Song Dynasty Shaoding Shijing Fence Circle is the oldest surviving Stone Well Fence in the ancient city of Suzhou, and was found in the Gu Family Mansion on Shizi Street during the Republic of China.
In the autumn of 1981, Mr. Gu Tinglong, then the director of the Shanghai Library, returned to Suzhou, and after visiting the Suzhou Museum, he took the initiative to donate the Southern Song Dynasty Shaoding Stone Well Fence Circle stored in the Fuquanshan Museum to the Suzhou Museum.
At present, the collection is exhibited in the third unit of the Suzhou General History Exhibition Hall on the first floor of the West Hall of Suzhou Museum, "Pure Jiangnan - Suzhou History Exhibition".
The other two were donated to Gu Shufen in the "Song Shaoding Jinglan Inscription Book" and his father's hand-copied "Fuquan Inscription Album".
The main body of the "Song Shaoding Jinglan Inscription Book" is the Southern Song Shaoding Stone Well Column Circle Inscription Rubbing. After discovering the well column, Gu Yuanchang (Zi Zhu'an) ordered his son Gu Tinglong to expand the text, and the inscription was all over the place, counting Wang Tongyu, Jin Tianyu, Zhang Yilu, Zhang Taiyan, Hu Shi, Gu Bainian, Qian Xuantong, Zhang Hao, Qian Zhongshu, Zhang Yuanji, and dozens of others, and wu Hufan's hand-painted "Song Jinglan Gu Ya Fuquan Map" frame.
The Fuquan Inscription Album is a manuscript of Gu Tinglong, Gu Shufen's father. Gu Xuefen's grandfather, Gu Yuanchang, was engraved with the words "Gu Ya Fuquan Yijing" on the well column in the ancestral house, and Gu wrote the inscription "Fuquan Mountain Pavilion" in the study. "Inscription" refers to a poem inscribed for singing a scene, painting or event.
