Xu Chongsi, a brilliant star in the Northern Song Dynasty painting world, is a descendant of Xu Xi. He inherited the artistic bloodline of his family and painted the fun of nature with his brush. He is good at using delicate brushstrokes to outline the agility of grass insects, the leisurely birds and fish, the abundance of fruits and vegetables, the gracefulness of flowers and trees, and even the gentleness of silkworm cocoons. Each of his works is a gentle confession of the delicate emotions of nature.
At first, Xu Chongsi followed the family motto and his painting style was deeply influenced by his grandfather Xu Xi. However, he was unlucky and his unique style could not fit in with the strict procedures and fashion trends of the painting academy at that time. Faced with this situation, he did not sink, but bravely emerged from the cocoon and became a butterfly. He turned to Huang Quan and Huang Jucai, father and son, to absorb the essence of the two, integrate and innovate, and finally became a master of his generation.

The pinnacle of his painting skills lies in the original "boneless painting" technique, which abandons the traditional method of outlining with ink lines and instead uses colorful colors to directly smudge. As the colors and ink blend together, the flowers appear on the paper, lifelike, as if they have no bones, yet contain infinite vitality. People are amazed and praise it as "boneless flowers". This unique skill is like the first light of dawn, gently awakening a new chapter in the painting world.
The Xu family was truly a place of talent. Xu Chongsi's elder brother Chongxun and younger brother Chongju were both famous for their flower and bird paintings. Chongju was especially skilled in not only flower and bird painting, but also in painting ladies. The ladies he painted were either gentle as water or dignified and majestic, showing the beauty of oriental women, which was fascinating. The three sons of the Xu family, each leading a different path, jointly painted a colorful picture of the Northern Song Dynasty painting world.
