After Xie Shaohuai left, Liuliulang said: "Isn't that the son of your Gongcheng County Order?" Is it an old acquaintance with a girl? ”

Ah Yin glanced at him and did not speak.

Saturday Lang said curtly: "It's me who talks too much, girl, you shouldn't have heard." I won't say more to the girl, the second round is almost underway. Soon after Liulang left, the crowd in the venue gradually increased, and most of the nuclear carvers who failed in the first round did not leave, but stayed outside to watch.

The venue was full of people.

It was also at this time that Luo Yuan, Luo Jiao, and Xie Xian Ling also entered. Several people didn't dare to sit down, and they all stood and waited for Mu Yanghou. The second round was set for a little bit of noon, but it was past a minute and the bout still hadn't started.

Mu Yanghou said that he would come to watch the game at noon, but now that no one came, Luo Yuan couldn't send someone to urge. At this time, I went over to urge, in case I happened to meet Mu Yanghou who was in a bad mood, wouldn't he be the first to sacrifice the whip? But it can't be done without urging, not to mention that there are six nuclear carvers waiting on the right hand, and there are still twenty nuclear carvers on the field.

He looked at Shangguan Shixin, as if he didn't know that the time for the game had come, and drank tea leisurely, obviously staying out of the matter.

"Luo Gongcao, Master Hou has not arrived, what should I do now?"

The person who spoke was Xie Shaohuai, he looked at Ah Yin on the field without a trace, and when he retracted his gaze, he said, "Why don't I go and ask the Hou Ye?" ”

When Luo Yuan heard this, he was displeased, but he felt that this brother-in-law didn't bring his brains over, and the people in the Shangguan family didn't say anything, what did he say about the son of a county order, if it wasn't for his brother-in-law, he would definitely want to let him go. But this is his brother-in-law, in case he is whipped, won't his sister have to be widowed?

He feigned embarrassment.

However, Luo Yuan didn't know what Xie Shaohuai was thinking, he just wanted to show his majesty in front of Ah Yin to show his closeness to Hou Ye. Fang was heartbroken by Ah Yin's cold words. He couldn't marry her, did she think he would be willing? He was also sad and painful. But she wasn't born in a family that matched him, can she blame him? If she didn't have to be a wife and marry him obediently, her son would be able to run all over the ground now. With a grandchild, the mother will naturally no longer be prejudiced against her. After a few years, maybe my mother will relent, and she will be willing to be her wife. Now tossed to this point, who is to blame?

The more Xie Shaohuai thought about it, the more angry he became, and his majestic mind became heavier and heavier, he didn't care about Luo Yuan's complexion, and said: "I saw Hou Ye's carriage stopped outside before, and I thought that Hou Ye should still be there." ”

At this point, Luo Yuan had no reason to stop it, so he had to say, "Then there is Brother-in-law Lao." ”.

When Xie Shaohuai left the shed, his back was straight, and he felt that the eyes of the audience were on him, and even Ah Yin also cast his eyes. He walked through the entire venue like a triumphant hero, and when he was about to walk out of the door of the venue, a magnificent figure gradually appeared.

He was overjoyed in his heart, and when he was about to give a salute, Mu Yanghou skipped him without squinting.

Xie Shaohuai was embarrassed.

It was also at this time that a person dressed as an entourage showed disdain on his face and said to Xie Shaohuai: "Don't block the honor guard of the Hou Ye." As he spoke, without waiting for Xie Shaohuai's reaction, the entourage holding the ten canopies rushed in, Xie Shaohuai took a few steps back and was squeezed into the crowd.

This was different from what he imagined, he should have led Mu Yang Houhu in with a fake tiger, instead of having a dull face like a water dog.

He felt that everyone was laughing at him.

That person was just a mere entourage, and he was only the identity of a subordinate, and he dared to treat him like this, and he showed such obvious contempt. Xie Shaohuai's face was blue and white, and he really wanted to dig a hole in the ground at this moment.

Unfortunately not.

But it was impossible for him to walk back to the shed like he was nothing, he could only secretly comfort himself that the Hou Ye didn't see him, just now the Hou Ye walked so fast, how could he see him with his clothes flying? It must be so! When he got married, Hou Ye came to give congratulatory gifts, how could Hou Ye ignore him?

Xie Shaohuai thought like this, and returned to the shed from the other side in a gloomy manner.

Shen Changtang in the shed had just sat down, and the little boy presented new tea, he took the teacup and said, "It's Ben Hou who is late." ”

Luo Yuan found that Shen Changtang had changed into a robe, and when he came over in the morning, he didn't have the honor guard of the Hou Ye, but when he came over at noon, he even brought the honor guard. Luo Yuan was still apprehensive, with a smile on his face, and only said: "Today's nuclear fighting conference is entrusted to the blessing of Hou Ye, and the nuclear carving technicians can watch the game by Hou Ye, which is also a blessing from the previous life." And it happened that the sun was big before, and now the sun is a little smaller, which is suitable for fighting cores. ”

Shen Changtang said: "The saint loves the core, and those who can carve the core well can please the saint." Longyan Dayue can govern the country for a long time and ensure peace and prosperity. Now all of us here are our talents, and we can't let the sun shine. ”

As soon as these words came out, the identities of the nuclear carving technicians present were all extremely high.

Keep the peace and prosperity!

Their little nuclear eagle still has such a big effect! The nuclear carving technicians present were greatly encouraged, and they couldn't wait to carve a few more nuclear carvings now!

Luo Yuan didn't expect Shen Changtang to suddenly say such a thing, and was thinking about whether Mu Yanghou was alluding to whether he was alluding to the fact that he had not arranged the Fighting Nuclear Conference, and the ten canopies that had just escorted Mu Yanghou in were already standing in the middle of the field.

The huge canopy, just two people on top of it, obscured the sun above the heads of the twenty nuclear carvers.

Yan Shen clapped his hands again, and twenty maids and maids rushed in, with a mahogany food box in one hand and a banana sunflower fan in the other, standing neatly behind the twenty nuclear carving technicians. There are four layers of food boxes, the bottom layer is a cup of warm tea, the third layer is a bowl of lotus ice dew, the second layer is five-color pastries, and the first layer is all kinds of melons and fruits.

There is a canopy on the top of the head, there is a beautiful maid behind him, and there are rare palace delicacies on the table.

Yan Shen said: "Hou Ye is sympathetic to you, you must carefully carve the core, and serve the saint in the future, and you must not miss Hou Ye's intentions." ”

"Yes!"

The sound was exceptionally loud.

When Yan Shen returned, Luo Yuan found a gap and asked Yan Shen: "The subordinate has been in office for less than half a year, and he lacks experience, if there is anything wrong, please ask Lang Jun to mention more." "Mu Yanghou is very scary to do this.

Yan Shen said seriously: "Hou Ye is just compassionate, Luo Gongcao doesn't need to think about it." "I'm afraid I'm going to scare you crazy when I say it. As soon as he said the six words of the nuclear carving technician, he felt ridiculous. Where does Hou Ye have such a heart?

It's just for the sake of fame. All those present were blessed by him, and they were only blessed.

Seeing the tooth marks on Hou Ye's lips this morning, he and Yan Mo were shocked. Shocked that Hou Ye was bitten and was not angry, and also shocked by Yin's boldness. When Yan Shen stood back in his original position, he looked at Mu Yanghou quietly, and couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Ah Yin in the field, thinking that he was really bold, he really dared to bite anywhere.

With the sound of the gong, the second round officially began.

There are 20 people left in the second round, and unlike the first round, this time there are 20 questions. Each of the six nuclear carvers produced three courses, and the remaining two were produced by Shangguan Shixin and Luo Yuan respectively, which was exactly twenty ways.

The boy stood in front of the twenty nuclear carvers, about ten paces away.

The seating arrangement is determined by the ranking of the first round, and Ah Yin is the first.

When she was about to leave the wooden table to draw the question, she had not yet stepped out of the shadow of the canopy, and Yan Shen in the shed said, "Wait." ”

Luo Yuan looked at him in surprise.

Yan Shen was a little embarrassed in his heart, but this was Hou Ye's idea, so he had to bite the bullet and pretend to be a high-sounding appearance and said: "The sun is shining, the road is far away, let the little boy send the jar to the table of every nuclear carving technician to draw questions." ”

It's a long way to go......

Luo Yuan visually measured the distance of about ten steps for the child, and if he changed to an adult, the one with a larger step could walk four or five steps.

I don't know how to say it, but Hou Ye is reluctant! There are so many medicine people, and this one is the most delicate!

"It's that the lower officials are not thoughtful." Luo Yuan sincerely admitted his mistake, and ordered the boy to send the jar to each nuclear carving technician. In order to show fairness, after the nuclear carving technician draws the question, he needs to show it in front of everyone. However, Luo Yuan took into account that Mu Yanghou now cherished the nuclear carving technician, and also let the child do it for him.

Ah Yin was the first to draw, and the first to show.

The question she drew was four words - all the best.

After showing it to everyone, the remaining nineteen nuclear carvers all breathed a sigh of relief. The white-haired old man in the first round made them panic, thinking that the first round was already so difficult, wouldn't the second round be even more difficult? I didn't expect the topic to be difficult, and it was a common greeting.

The next few nuclear carving technicians drew common greetings, such as step by step, such as Hongfu Qitian and the like.

Luo Yuan explained: "The theme of this round is reasonable, and with a congratulatory message, it is exactly in line with the original meaning of nuclear carving. ”

Nuclear carving donor, one look at the workmanship, the other look at the meaning.

Shangguan Shixin said with a smile: "The second round seems easy, but it is actually difficult. ”.

Shangguan Shixin's words, Ah Yin also thought of it.

The first round was better than the white-haired old man who had never seen before, and the test was the reaction speed of the nuclear carving technician. And these greetings, which are often carved by nuclear carvers, can be said to be so familiar that they can no longer be familiar. However, this is familiar to everyone, and it is not so easy to stand out from the twenty nuclear carving technicians.

The simpler it is, the more real it is.

There were only six winners in the second round, and it would take more effort to win the favor of one of the nuclear carvers than to carve the white-haired old man.

Ah Yin stared at the peach pit and fell into deep thought.

The rest of the nuclear carving technicians also gradually thought of what Ah Yin thought, and began to rack their brains to carve new tricks. The venue was silent, and the twenty nuclear carvers were all thinking. The second round is also time-limited, which is two hours. At present, the water droplets in the leaky pot have passed a cup of tea, and there is still no one in the field to use a pen or a knife.

Ah Yin has never been a brainless person, so he simply didn't think of a good way for the time being. It happened to be a hot day, and the sun after noon became more and more scorching, even if there was a canopy to cover it, but it could not resist the stuffy heat that came up from the soles of your feet.

She opened the food box, took out the lotus ice dew, and after taking a sip, her eyes blinked a few times, and then the rest of the lotus ice dew was drunk into her stomach.

She poured another cup of warm tea, took out the second layer of five-colored pastry, and picked up a crispy shortbread at random. At this point, she couldn't help but be stunned. In the food box on the second floor, there was a note that was spread out and pressed under the pastry.

After taking one away, the corner of the note was revealed.

She subconsciously looked up at the shed in front of her.

Shen Changtang sat on the main seat, and Shangguan Shixin didn't know what to say, and he happened to have a side face facing Ah Yin. Despite the distance, the tooth marks on his lips were so striking. Ah Yin remembered what happened in the carriage, his ears were slightly red, and he quickly lowered his head and ate the crispy shortbread.

She didn't eat much in the morning, only two mung bean cakes, and she didn't feel hungry, but now after eating a piece of crispy shortbread, her stomach rang.

Ah Yin didn't see the note.

You don't have to look at her to know that this note is Mu Yanghou's. What he says and what he writes is either frivolous or flirtatious. The second layer of the food box has five grids, and Ah Yin does not touch the grid with the note, but takes the peach blossom cake on the other side.

As soon as I picked it up, I saw a new note, and this time Ah Yin saw the word "today".

She was so frightened that her hands shook, and the peach blossom cake fell back into the food box, and the movement was not small, causing the nuclear carving technician next door to look at her. She quietly put the food box back. You may have to pay for eating this pastry.

At this time, the nuclear carver next door was also hungry and was eating pastries.

When Ah Yin saw it, he was slightly annoyed.

Mu Yanghou is really a bully! Serve the sick in the morning, and don't let her eat well in the afternoon! She doesn't eat the head office, right? She drinks tea! Ah Yin drank a cup of warm tea into his stomach, and when he was about to pour another cup, Yingying, a maid who was shaking a fan behind her, came to pick up the teacup and poured tea for Ah Yin.

It happened to be from this angle that Ah Yin saw six words written on the sleeve of the maid - come to see Ben Hou tonight.

…… There really is nowhere to run.

Ah Yin angrily took out the food box again and ate the pastries to the fullest! Sure enough, under each grid of pastries, there was an identical note, all of which had those six words written - come to see Ben Hou tonight.

Ah Yin looked at the topic he drew - everything went well.

It's just ironic!

As soon as she met Mu Yanghou, everything was unsatisfactory. If you kiss in the morning, will you kiss in the evening?

Suddenly, Ah Yin was stunned.

As if thinking of something, her whole face began to glow.

With the hand speed of the first round, Ah Yin in the second round is even more attention. As the leader of the first round, her every move was under the scrutiny of everyone, and even the six nuclear carvers paid great attention to Ah Yin.

Seeing her pondering before, everyone looked forward to her having a new trick this time. I didn't expect her to eat directly, but this leisurely state made the rest of the people admire her even more, thinking that she must be confident, otherwise she would not eat leisurely. A master is a master!

Finally, she picked up the file!

Everyone couldn't help but lean forward, wanting to appreciate the six-knife trick again.

However, Ah Yin disappointed.

She slowly smoothed the ends of the peach pit, not as fast as the first round.

In the afternoon, Shen Changtang was in a good mood, and he talked to Shangguan Shixin every three or five days. Seeing that Ah Yin had made a move, he adjusted his sitting posture and said to Shangguan Shixin: "Shaodong, according to what you see, what does she want to carve?" ”

Shangguan Shixin said: "Miss Yin is smoking everything is going well, and now everything is going well, most of the nuclear carvings are a persimmon tree or two persimmons and one wishful in a basket. ”

"In the second round, who do you think has the best chance of winning?"

Shangguan Shixin only said: "The winner of the second round is determined by the six nuclear carvers, each of whom has their own preferences, and Shixin is not sure." As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Changtang and said: "After Suizhou enters summer, there are many mosquitoes, not like Yongping, and Hou Ye is afraid that he is not used to the climate here." ”

Shen Changtang said lightly: "It's hot weather, Ben Hou was bitten when he teased the cat at noon, but it was indecent, and he called the young owner to see the joke." ”

Shangguan Shixin was taken aback, and said with a smile: "Shixin heard in Yongping that Hou Ye doesn't like cats and dogs, but it turned out to be just a rumor. ”

"I really don't love it, it's a little wild cat, with a temperament quite compatible with Benhou, bold and careful."

Shangguan Shixin said: "If you dare to bite Hou Ye, you can still be liked by Hou Ye, it must be a smart wild cat." ”

"It's a little smart, and after a while, Japan is ready to bring it back to Yongping. It's just that Ben Hou's wild cat is very wild, and if the young owner sees it in Gongcheng one day, he will send someone to tell Ben Hou. ”

Shangguan Shixin smiled and should be good.

While the two were talking, Ah Yin had already changed to a conical knife, and everything was going well, and the prototype of the nuclear carving had appeared.

The outline of the bamboo basket has been revealed, and she holds a cone knife to carve the delicate pattern on the bamboo basket.

An hour passed.

Everything is going well, and the nuclear carving has been completed for seven or eight. There are two large persimmons on one side of the bamboo basket, as if they have just been plucked from the tree, and there are slender leaves; On the other side is a flat Ruyi.

After all, nuclear carving is only an inch, and only those who can see the details clearly are nuclear carving technicians who are very close. The nuclear carving technician next to Ah Yin also has some ability, because of the last round, seeing Ah Yin began to carve the nucleus, he couldn't help but look at what she carved, probably expecting too much, and now when he saw that everything went well and the nuclear carving was not as amazing as he imagined, he was slightly disappointed in his heart.

According to his previous experience, she must carve lines on the persimmon next, so that the persimmon can appear full and round.

Sure enough, Ah Yin's next step fell on the pattern of the persimmon, and the persimmon was carved round and ingenious with a few knives.

The nuclear carver withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to Ah Yin.

He knew that she was going to polish and polish next, and when it was done, the nuclear carving was finished. She is a little capable, everything is satisfactory nuclear carving is pleasing enough, if it is sold on the market, the price is estimated to be not low, but the six nuclear carvers at the conference have a critical gaze, and it may not be able to enter their eyes if it is pleasing enough.

He continued to carve his own step-by-step nuclear carving.

When he carried out the polishing step, he casually glanced at it and found that Ah Yin, who should have been completed a long time ago, was still carving. He couldn't help but be stunned, but at this time, Ah Yin tilted his head slightly, and the black hair pouring down blocked his vision, and he couldn't see what Ah Yin was carving.

It wasn't until the boy reminded him that there was one tea left in the time that he suddenly came back to his senses and quickly polished it.

Finally, two hours came.

Ah Yin put down the nuclear carving and showed a happy look. The nuclear carving technician next door took the opportunity to look over, and couldn't help but be stunned again, everything went well on the nuclear carving was no different from what he had seen before, but logically speaking, when he polished it, she should have already finished it, how could it be completed later than him?

He had a lot of doubts in his heart, but at this time he couldn't talk to the contestants, so he had to purse his mouth.

The six nuclear carvers got up and walked into the arena.

According to the rules of the second round, each nuclear carver can only give the peach pit in his hand to one nuclear carver. Because Ah Yin watched Xiàn in the first round, the six nuclear carvers were almost the first to stop at Ah Yin's table.

On the wooden table, everything is wishful and the nuclear carving is excellent, the two large persimmons are also carved round and lovely, and the texture of the leaves is also lifelike. But today's nuclear carvers are extremely picky, how can they get into their eyes if they are just good? Soon, five nuclear carvers had already left.

The sixth nuclear carver was still stopping, he was holding Ah Yin's wishful nuclear carving, holding a diorama in his hand, and looking carefully at it from front to back, left and right.

Suddenly, the nuclear carver let out a "huh", and his fingers lightly touched the leaf on the persimmon, and the slender leaf moved gently. When I looked at the diorama, I saw that the leaves could swing from side to side, as if the wind was blowing, and it was very vivid.

This swing happened to see a poem.

The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day.

It is also in line with the theme of everything going well, like looking forward to all the best, like a small surprise. The sixth nuclear carver was full of praise and said, "Wonderful! The nuclear carving technician also looked over, and also found that everything was going well, and the ingenuity of the nuclear carving was bright.

Unexpectedly, she actually moved her little hands and feet on the leaves, skillfully making the leaves swing.

Ah Yin said shyly: "I was fortunate enough to see a flat boat nuclear sculpture before, and its window could be opened, and Ah Yin was also triggered by this." ”

The sixth nuclear carver said again: "Wonderful! ”

The other five nuclear carvers heard the sound and were about to watch, when the sixth nuclear carver slapped the wooden table, leaving a peach pit, and said, "Don't rob the old man, this old man has sent out the peach pit." ”

Seeing this, Ah Yin got up and thanked him, with a smile on his face, which was happy from the bottom of his heart.
