6. Chapter 006
Seeing Shen Shu bargaining with Brother Zhen, Sister Hui walked over with a smile and touched Brother Zhen'er's head, "I didn't even see it before, you are such a clingy character......" she said, her tone suddenly became a little low.
Maybe Brother Zhen has always been such a personality, but she has been forcibly instilled with those ideas in his previous life, so that he became more and more silent later, said very little, and even smiled rarely.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Brother Zhen keenly sensed that her feelings were wrong, and asked with concern.
Shen Shu also looked at it when she heard this, her eyes swept around Sister Hui'er's face, and comforted her softly, "Don't think too much, just let it be." If the assumption that Sister Hui was reborn is true, Shen Shu guessed that her age in her previous life should not be too old. Yesterday, she fell into her arms and cried so aggrieved and sad, thinking that she had suffered a lot.
Sister Hui listened to Shen Shu's words, and didn't think much about it, but she felt that she was a little too sentimental now, and she was always lightly aroused by sad feelings, God gave her a chance to come back, her father and mother are still alive and well in this life, and Brother Zhen has not become the taciturn character later, the people she cares about the most are all around, no matter how hard and tired the previous life was, it has passed, people can't always think about looking back, they should look forward.
She was not a real child after all, she quickly figured it out, expelled the sad feelings, raised a smile on her face again, walked to Shen Shu in a few steps and sat down, holding her hand and pilling it on her shoulder, with an intimate look, "Mother tell me a story, I also want to hear what the story that can make Brother Zhen unforgettable." ”
Seeing this, Brother Zhen also rubbed over and plunged into Shen Shu's arms at once, "Mother, I also want to hug and listen to stories." ”
Shen Shu hadn't been so close to people for many years, and her body had become a little stiff. Sister Hui leaned on her shoulder obediently, and Brother Zhen seemed to be idle, some fleshy little bodies writhed in her arms, and looked at her with his big black eyes from time to time. She actually wanted to refuse, and she knew that it would not work to continue like this, but under the eager gaze of the two children, she couldn't be ruthless.
So she was naturally defeated again, although she put on a stern expression and repeatedly emphasized that she only told one story, but in the end, under the gaze of Brother Zhen'er's bright eyes, she said two more. After that, no matter how much Brother Zhen cheated, Shen Shu no longer compromised and gave in, really because she was in the initial stage of storytelling, and she still remembered a lot of stories in her head, but she stumbled when the words came to her mouth, and she didn't feel right no matter how she said it.
As an engineering tyrant, Shen Shu felt bitter.
After telling the story, the three of them gossiped in the house for a while, and seeing that the sky was getting darker, Sister Hui asked for her farewell and took Brother Zhen away by the way. Shen Shu felt that this child might be born with coquettish skills, and the little eyes when he left were called a grievance, and the idlers couldn't bear it.
After the two children left, Shen Shu asked the maid the time, the end of the time has not yet arrived, and the time converted to modern times is less than nine o'clock, and the nightlife has just begun. She remembered to promise Brother Zhen to make him a small toy, but she didn't really think about what to do. But since you agreed, you have to do it, and you can't just because the other party is a child. She didn't know how others would react to the issue, but her parents had always said yes and would do it.
When Shen Shu was a child, there were many toys in both quantity and variety, and there were enough to open a small exhibition, but if they were exhibited, they would basically not be intact toys, either disassembled into parts, or put together in a strange way. When she was a child, Shen Shu not only had a very strong desire for knowledge, but also her hands-on ability was not covered.
But then again, it's not a question of how many toys she used to have, the question is what kind of toys she wants to make for Brother Zhen. She tried to recall, but unfortunately she couldn't find any trace of the toy from the scattered memories left by the original owner, so she had to ask someone, and the answer she got was what kind of kite, sandbag, rope, rattle, etc.
The lack of playability has made Shen Shu sigh a little, but then she doesn't have to worry about it, because basically everything is fresh.
Shen Shu finally chose to be a microphone. It's easy and convenient, and you can play it for a while.
The materials needed to make a microphone are only two paper cups plus a cotton thread and a needle, there is no disposable paper cup here, which Shen Shu has long considered, and she has also found a replacement material, that is, a bamboo tube, and there is a bamboo forest behind the house. Now although it is late, fortunately, the bamboo forest is not far away, Shen Shu let Liuli play the lantern, and if she didn't find the saw, she could only go to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife, she was originally only going to go to two people, but after going to the kitchen, the mother-in-law in charge of the kitchen was worried that she would hurt herself, so she made a small servant accompany her.
The two turned into three people and went straight to the bamboo forest.
Shen Shu walked through the bamboo forest with the corners of her skirt, and she didn't pick it much, and it didn't take long for her to choose, and let the little guy cut off the head and tail and only leave the middle to take away.
And not long after Shen Shu came out, Xie Changning left the study after dealing with the matter at hand and came to the East Courtyard. This time, the maid on duty at the door didn't tell him that Shen Shu was asleep, but said that she went out.
If it's getting late, where can she go?
Xie Changning frowned slightly, and asked the maid what was going on, and the maid replied, "Madame took Sister Liuli to the bamboo forest behind the house."
After getting this answer, Xie Changning became more and more confused. What is she doing in the bamboo forest at night? He thought so, so he did not go into the courtyard, but turned and walked towards the bamboo forest behind the house.
When Xie Changning looked for it, Shen Shu happened to come back with someone, Liuli followed her with a lamp, and behind her was a small guy with a kitchen knife and a bamboo pole, and the moonlight shone on the blade, refracting a cold light.
Looking at Xie Changning standing under the lamp not far in front of her, Shen Shu felt a little surprised, she didn't expect Xie Changning to come to her at all, she just thought it was a chance meeting, she didn't speak when she walked up to him, she just nodded as a greeting, and passed by him.
Xie Changning never expected her to react like this, and stopped her in a daze, "It's so late, what are you doing in the bamboo forest?"
Shen Shu stopped and turned to look at him, "To make something, you need to use a bamboo tube." ”
"What is it?" Xie Changning asked again.
"Children's toys are made for Brother Zhen. Shen Shu didn't say it was a microphone, she was worried that he would continue to ask, she really didn't want to deal with Xie Changning much.
Xie Changning really didn't ask anymore, Shen Shu turned around and continued walking, but he didn't want him to follow all the way into the East Courtyard.
Shen Shu asked the little servant to put the bamboo next to the table, and told him to find a smaller knife to come over, and then looked at Xie Changning, who came uninvited, and asked, "Why don't you go to Aunt Zhou's side, what are you doing here with me?"
Just because of her sentence, Xie Changning was even more determined that her expression last night was because of jealousy. He looked at her slightly frowning brows, and somehow laughed a little, "You haven't kept me before, I went to Aunt Zhou's side for a long time, and you didn't say anything, I thought you really didn't care, why did you suddenly become jealous at this time?"
Shen Shu's brows furrowed even tighter after hearing this, she knew every word of Xie Changning's words, but when they were put together, she didn't understand what they meant. But she didn't bother to ask, because the little guy brought the props, and the size was about the same as a modern fruit knife, and the blade looked much sharper.
Shen Shu walked to the soft couch and sat down, picked up the piece of bamboo and looked at it, picked out two suitable ones, and asked Liuli to bring Shi Dai to draw a line, because there was no saw, so he could only hold a knife and slowly grind along the drawn line.
Shen Shu was concentrating on fiddling with the bamboo in her hand, and unexpectedly a hand reached out in front of her to stop her movements, she looked up a little dazedly, and saw Xie Changning standing in front of her, "I'll come, you don't know when you want to get it yet." So saying, he took the knife and bamboo from her hand, sat down next to her, and asked her, "Is there anything to pay attention to?"
Shen Shu subconsciously shook her head, "No, just cut along the line and cut out two bamboo tubes." ”
Xie Changning hummed, then lowered his head and concentrated on cutting the bamboo.
The main material of the microphone is the bamboo tube, and the thread and needle have been prepared a long time ago, so Shen Shu has nothing to do, so she sat there, resting her hand on the table, holding her chin and being stunned. I don't know how long it took, Xie Changning's voice came from the side, "Okay." ”
Shen Shu came back to her senses, turned her head to look over, Xie Changning had already cut out two bamboo tubes and put them on the desk, she said thank you, took a bamboo tube and buckled it on the table, and took a needle with thread from the side, the tip of the needle was against the bottom of the bamboo tube, and she held the stone in one hand and gently knocked it.
Xie Changning didn't know what she was going to do, looked at her cautious appearance, and said to her again, "I'll come." As she spoke, she once again stretched out her hand to stop her movements, first moved the bamboo tube in front of her, then took the stone and the needle, and quickly knocked most of the needle in, and then looked up at Shen Shu, "Is this okay?"
Shen Shu looked at him expressionlessly, and after staring at him for a moment, he said, "Go on, knock the needle in and pull the thread out." ”
Xie Changning nodded in response, lowered his head and continued to knock, and soon it was completed, handing the bamboo tube to Shen Shu. Shen Shu took it, knotted the thread, and pulled the thread back from the bottom until the thread was stuck at the bottom of the bamboo tube. She took a needle and threaded the other end of the thread, then looked at Xie Changning, "Or are you coming?" The latter was silent for a moment and took it.
It didn't take long for the microphone to be ready.
Xie Changning asked Shen Shu, "What is this?"
Shen Shu looked at the help he had just given and replied, "The microphone, made for Brother Zhen'er to play, theoretically speaking, I can hear what I said at the other end, but the actual effect will not be known until I have tried it." ”
When Xie Changning heard this, he looked at Shen Shu with some surprise, he picked up a bamboo tube and looked at it, and said to Shen Shu, "I'll try it." With that, he took the bamboo tube and walked out of the house.
Shen Shu didn't mind his behavior very much, anyway, it was all going to be tested, and it was the same for everyone, so he only reminded, "The line should be straight." ”
The line prepared by Shen Shu was about twenty feet, equivalent to about seven meters, which was the longest line she could find.
The line was pulled from the house to the outside, gradually straightening, and Xie Changning's figure also blended into the night.
Shen Shu said to the bamboo tube, "Hey, can you hear it?" and then put the bamboo tube close to his ear, but he didn't hear any sound. "Even if the effect is not very good, it will not be completely silent. She took the bamboo tube and muttered to herself, and then leaned into her ear to listen, and suddenly there was a voice.
"Shen Shu. ”
"Huh?"
"I can hear you. ”
"What?"
"I heard everything you just said. ”
"I'll just say, unless science is eaten by dogs, how can there be no sound. ”
