Chapter 099: Giving Birth to Trouble
Qin Shuying smiled, "I'll just say, Cousin Wei is a model of a noble girl in Beijing, even if she says some rude words, I think it's like this for noble ladies from time to time." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info pity I rarely talk to the nobles, I don't know that the nobles in Beijing are sometimes in vogue to say rude things, if there is a chance for Gai Ming'er, I will also talk about it, and let people see the good example that Cousin Wei brought to us. Sixth sister, don't you say? β
Xu Peiwei could barely lift it in one breath, if it wasn't for Qin Yunyun to stop her, she would have pointed at Qin Shuying's nose and scolded again.
Qin Yunyun hurriedly played a round game: "Okay, okay, seventh sister, they are all sisters, just joking and playing." Let's go, my cousin's things are all exquisite and novel gadgets, and I can't wait to see them. β
Qin Shuying raised her chin and asked Xu Peiwei: "Cousin Wei, really won't let me go?" β
Xu Peiwei gritted her silver teeth, gritted her teeth and said, "No!" β
With that, he took the lead and walked forward, without saying a word more.
Inside Xu Peiwei's boudoir.
A wooden bird a foot tall rests on the table.
This pair of wooden birds is very well made, the materials are excellent, and the colors are very realistic, just looking at the craftsmanship is very good.
Qin Yunyun and Qin Lulu were both attracted by the woodbird, and it was really novel.
"Cousin, you said it can flap its wings and walk?" Qin Yunyun pointed to the wooden bird and asked incredulously.
"Of course."
Xu Peiwei showed a smile on her face, this is a good thing that she carefully brought back.
She took a wooden bird down, placed it on a large and extremely long table in front of the window, twisted it somewhere under the belly, and let it goβand a miracle happened, and the wings of the wooden bird opened and closed, and its feet began to walk, although it was slow, but it was indeed walking.
"It's amazing!" Qin Yunyun exclaimed, her eyes widened in surprise, and she saw that the bird had walked a long way before stopping.
Even though Qin Lulu felt surprised, she only looked at the wooden bird without saying a word, and did not praise loudly, Xu Peiwei's ridicule just now made her feel a breath in her heart.
Qin Shuying also stared at the wooden bird, and quickly understood what was going on.
When she was chatting with people from overseas, she knew that there were some places where the craft was developed, and it was possible to make all kinds of strange parts out of iron, and then arrange the parts in wood, and then twist the mechanism, and the equipment would move.
Qin Yongzhou was very studious and erudite, and left a large number of books, including books from overseas.
Qin Shuying only knew a few simple words, and it was impossible to read the articles, but those books were equipped with drawings, and the key parts of the drawings were often accompanied by explanations, which made her even guess and learn some strange tricks.
Speaking of which, it's not difficult for this wooden bird to move around, and it's not a rare object. But it's true that it's not cheap, I'm afraid it will cost more than a dozen taels of silver.
Only deep boudoir girls like Qin Yunyun and Qin Lulu who stay at home will feel rare.
"Cousin, it's really strange, how can this wooden bird move?" Qin Yunyun asked Xu Peiwei.
Xu Peiwei smiled, "I knew you would ask." Let's not talk about this, I brought a total of two wooden birds and two wooden cats, exactly one for each person. β
As he spoke, he turned around and took out two wooden cats from the cabinet, "This wooden cat, give it to two cousins, one for each of them." Although the thing is small, it is a piece of my heart, and the two cousins should not be disgusted. β
Qin Lulu involuntarily glanced at Qin Shuying, there was expectation in her eyes, this was because she was afraid that Qin Shuying would not accept it, and she would not be able to accept it. Fang Cai himself is on the same front as her, and now he naturally has to stick to the end.
Qin Shuying understood what Qin Lulu meant, reached out and took the wooden cat, and said, "Thank you, Cousin Wei, for remembering me so far away." β
Xu Peiwei didn't understand what she meant, she only thought that Qin Shuying was aware of current affairs, and in the end she was in her own home, although she had a disgrace, she was thinking about reconciliation now.
Qin Lulu took it over happily, and couldn't put it down and turned the wooden cat over and over again.
Xu Peiwei said to Qin Yunyun again: "Cousin, the remaining wooden bird is yours." β
Qin Yunyun took down the wooden bird from the table and said, "Then it's disrespectful." I'll see how it works. β
Qin Lulu curiously searched left and right, but she couldn't get the point.
Qin Shuying looked at the wooden cat, her eyelashes drooping, covering her eyes.
Seeing that everyone couldn't find the trick, Xu Peiwei said with a little pride: "You can't find the mechanism, right?" Such a skill, what a skill! I'll teach you. Can you see that protruding wooden bar? That's it, it's not wood, it's iron, it's painted, and it's exactly the same color as wood! I was also initially deceived and thought it was wood. Pinch it, twist it gently, and hear the strange sound inside, right? That's right, twist it twice, and put it on the table......"
Qin Lulu watched her wooden cat walk around on the table, and suddenly forgot about her previous unhappiness, and clapped her hands and said, "My cat is walking!" β
Qin Yunyun was also pleasantly surprised to find that her wooden bird began to move.
Only Qin Shuying, the wooden cat was motionless.
"What's going on? I've tried them one by one before, and I'll really go. Seventh cousin, you let me take a look. Xu Peiwei took the wooden cat from Qin Shuying's hand, twisted it, and put it on the table, but the cat was still motionless.
"It's weird." Xu Peiwei muttered and screwed it again.
After doing this three times, the cat still didn't move.
"Isn't it broken?" Qin Yunyun asked tentatively.
Xu Peiwei was reminded by her, and suddenly realized: "It's possible." Seventh sister, I'm really sorry, I'll give you a gift, I don't know if I fell on the road, I was good when I bought it, but now I can't move. β
Qin Shuying said: "Don't get in the way. Cousin Wei gave it to me, and I received Cousin Wei's heart. β
Xu Peiwei said: "I brought back a gift for my seventh sister from so far away, but it was broken, it was my rudeness." It's better to change the bird with you, and I'll write to my cousin to buy me a bird. β
After that, he looked at the wooden bird very reluctantly, obviously reluctantly cutting his love.
Qin Shuying didn't seem to understand the reluctance on Xu Peiwei's face at all, and said happily: "Since this is the case, then I might as well be respectful." Thank you, Cousin Wei. β
After that, he hurriedly put the cat on the table, snatched Xu Peiwei's wooden bird again, twisted the iron bar, and then put it on the table, the wooden bird flapped its wings and advanced, Qin Shuying watched it with relish.
Xu Peiwei bit her lower lip and muttered: "I'm going to write a letter, I don't know how long it will take for my cousin to bring it to me." It will take two months at the earliest, and Shuzhong is too far away! β
Qin Shuying didn't seem to hear it, but just turned the wooden bird over and over to look at it, and liked it very much.
Xu Peiwei wanted to scratch Qin Shuying's face, and said that it was a kind word to her, but she was good, and she took it without being weak at all.
