Chapter 163: The Flower of Tangtang
The second watch, ask for pink.
……
This bow is from He Yong's hand, but looking at Second Master Ji, Qi Younian feels that it is better not to say it.
"I wanted to make a bow, so I wrote to my father. According to my father, he asked an old friend to make it himself. My father, an old friend, also lives in a simple place, and I am not familiar with it. Qi Younian said to Master Ji Er.
Second Master Ji would not let go of this kind of rhetoric so easily.
"Ling Zun's friend's name, wouldn't it be He Yong." Second Master Ji looked at Qi Younian.
"This bow is really made by Master He Yong?" Mu Jiahao couldn't help but ask. Although he is not as obsessed with archery as his eldest brother Mu Jiaying, he has long been famous for He Yong and yearns for it.
Qi Younian glanced at Ji Xiaotang quickly.
"The name of my father's old friend, forgive me for being entrusted by others, and I can't divulge it." This bow was made by He Yong himself, but he didn't want to say it in front of so many people.
I don't know why, Qi Younian just had a hunch. If he told the origin of this bow, Second Master Ji would never let Ji Xiaotang accept this gift.
However, he couldn't lie to Master Ji Er and Mu Jiahao. After thinking about it, he could only say that it was inconvenient for him to leak it.
When Second Master Ji heard Qi Younian say this, he really didn't ask anymore.
"This gift is too expensive, and Yu Xiaotang is not suitable." Second Master Ji handed the bow back to Qi Younian and said slowly, "However, we all understand Qi Qianhu's intentions. As for this bow, please ask Qi Qianhu to take it back. Send another person who is suitable. ”
Qi Younian naturally refused to accept it.
"Why did Master Ji say this. …… It's just an ordinary object, and it's what Xiaotang likes. "Qi Younian is not a person who is clumsy in words, but in front of Second Master Ji. He couldn't even say much.
Master Ji's words make sense.
It's not about how valuable the bow is, it's about the fact that it's a murder weapon after all. And the Ji family is a scholarly family, but Ji Xiaotang is a beautiful girl in the boudoir. It seems that there is really no such a bow for such a little girl's birthday.
But he had never thought of that before.
Whether it is in his family or the Mu family, such a gift is extremely suitable.
And in the Kifu......
Second Master Ji allowed Ji Xiaotang to learn bows and arrows. Ji Xiaotang's usual speech and demeanor. It can also be seen that Master Ji and Mrs. Ji Er love their daughter very much, and they are not such pedantic and dull parents.
So. Now what Master Ji Er said is reasonable.
Second Master Ji just didn't want Ji Xiaotang to accept his gift. Is it because of this bow that Master Ji Er doubts his origin?
Qi You has grown so old that for the first time, he has the feeling of being deflated.
The look of frustration on the young man's face flashed, and he quickly calmed down again. He hurriedly signaled to Mu Jiahao opposite. He secretly glanced at Master Ji San next to him.
"Brother-in-law. Xiaotang is good at archery, but he lacks a good bow. This gift is very suitable for Xiaotang. Mu Jiahao immediately opened his mouth, "Brother-in-law Mo treats Ayou as an outsider, in Fucheng, we are all family contacts and lifelong friendships." Even if this bow is more valuable, it doesn't hurt. ”
Mu Jiahao's temperament is obviously with Mu Hong, and he is very direct and bold.
"Second brother. Ayou has a heart, and he has already agreed with Xiaotang. The second brother doesn't have to be like this at all. "Master Ji San is busy, so he also persuades Master Ji Er.
Master Ji San may be thinking less than Ji Second Master at the moment. But there are more than Mu Jiahao. Master Ji San thinks that Master Ji is too careful. Regarding Ji Xiaotang's family affairs, Ji Xiaotang is still young, and the object of his future marriage may not be limited to the Xie family.
According to Master Ji San, Qi Younian is more suitable for Ji Xiaotang than Xie Huaijin, and he also admires Qi Younian more.
Master Ji San and Mu Jiahao both persuaded Second Master Ji, especially Mu Jiahao, it seemed that if Second Master Ji refused Qi Younian's gift, it would be the same as rejecting him.
“…… is still Xiaotang, more like a girl from my Mu family. Mu Jiahao persuaded Second Master Ji again, and seeing that Second Master Ji still refused to nod, he couldn't help but turn around and whispered to Second Mrs. Ji.
This sentence is praising Ji Xiaotang, and at the same time complaining about Ji Er.
Mrs. Ji couldn't hear it, and she was a little embarrassed for a while.
Mrs. Ji Er looked at Master Ji Er, and the husband and wife exchanged glances, and they both went to see Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang never spoke.
"That's it, a bow, no matter how precious it is......" Mrs. Ji Er said to Second Master Ji in a low voice. No matter how precious the bow was, it didn't matter if they took it. Are the Ji family still afraid that they won't be able to pay back the courtesy?
Moreover, Qi Younian and Ji Xiaotang are very generous, and looking at the attitudes of Master Ji San and Mu Jiahao, Mrs. Ji Er knows that there should be no personal relationship between the two children.
Second Master Ji has something in his heart, but it is difficult to say it. He wasn't thinking about how much the bow was worth. Second Master Ji thought about it and sighed softly.
"Xiaotang likes it, just accept it." Second Master Ji finally said, secretly thinking in his heart, children and grandchildren have their own granddaughters, and some things can only be natural.
"Daddy, can I really take it?" Ji Xiaotang didn't pick it up immediately.
"Take it." Second Master Ji looked at Ji Xiaotang and clearly liked it, and sighed secretly, but said such three words. In the final analysis, he and Mrs. Ji are the same, and they both spoil their daughters in their hearts.
Only then did Ji Xiaotang take the bow in his hand.
Qi Younian's eyes were bent into two crescents again. This expression of his made his whole face dyed with a hint of childishness. Because of his identity, his usual speech and demeanor, people ignore his age. In fact, this slightly childish expression is what he should have at his age.
"Xiaotang, do you want to give it a try now." Qi Younian mentioned yì.
Master Ji San immediately seconded the proposal, and Mu Jiahao also said yes.
Second Master Ji glanced at Second Mrs. Ji helplessly.
"Then let's all go and have a look." Mrs. Ji said with a smile.
Second Master Ji could only nod.
Mrs. Ji Er asked Changsheng to be taken out, and everyone went to the small cross-courtyard where Master Ji San usually trains the nursing home.
The arrow target was set up in the small cross courtyard, and Ji Xiaotang stood a hundred steps in front of the arrow target.
Qi Younian untied a deerskin quiver from his back, and in the quiver were Zanxin's ten carved arrows.
"I made it myself." Qi Younian signaled, along with the quiver and carved arrows, it was a birthday gift for Ji Xiaotang. Moreover, the quiver and the carved arrows were all made by him.
If it weren't for the best bow for Ji Xiaotang, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't have the skill to make a bow at home, he almost planned to make a bow for Ji Xiaotang himself.
A bow can't do it, but an arrow can. Qi Younian has this self-confidence, and the ten carved arrows he made are comparable to any of the best arrows today.
When Ji Xiaotang saw Qi Younian like this, he knew that he wanted to hide it from people, mainly from Second Master Ji.
Ji Xiaotang looked in the direction of the second master Ji behind him, and nodded lightly, signaling that she knew.
The arrow was on the string, Ji Xiaotang opened his bow and shot an arrow. Then I heard a pop, and the arrow was shot, but the target was empty.
There was a sudden silence in the courtyard, followed by applause and cheers.
Master Ji San and Mu Jiahao's cheers were the loudest.
"Good head."
"Good bow."
It turned out that Ji Xiaotang shot an arrow, but it actually passed through the target and shot directly into the wall behind the target.
Master Ji San personally threw it over and took back the carved arrow, his face full of joy.
Ji Xiaotang looked down at the bow, a little distracted.
She used this bow very handily, and it was tailor-made for her. She was already able to pull out a one-stone bow, which was effortless, but the power of the arrow that could not be shot seemed to be more than doubled.
This is all thanks to this bow.
It's really a treasure bow.
Ji Xiaotang thought of what the second master of Fang Cai asked Qi Younian. This bow is not only made of materials that are difficult to buy and can be called a sacred object, but also has the craftsmanship of making zuò in this way.
This is not only a treasure bow, but also a divine bow.
After it was taken by Second Master Ji, Ji Xiaotang didn't have a chance to take a closer look at this bow. Now looking carefully inch by inch, Ji Xiaotang also saw the mediocre word.
This is why Master Ji Er asked He Yong.
Except for He Yong, I really can't imagine anyone who will have such a skill and such a magic skill.
And when Ji Xiaotang continued to read, he saw another word.
This word, obviously, is not from the same person as the Yong word, it is a seal of the Tang character.
Ji Xiaotang looked up at Qi Younian.
Qi Younian was looking at her with crooked eyes and smiling.
Is that why a bow has to wait so long?!
Ji Xiaotang was silently facing Qi Younian, and Second Master Ji had already walked over.
"It's indeed a divine bow, but in Xiaotang's hands, it's lonely. However, loneliness is not good. Second Master Ji glanced at the bow and arrow in Ji Xiaotang's hand and exclaimed. Lord Qi, does this bow have a name? ”
Of course, Qi Younian has already thought about it, this bow should be called "Tang".
But before Qi Younian could speak, Second Master Ji had already taken the words by himself.
"Poems. Xiaoya" has "Tang Tang", the flower of Tang Tang, E Bu Weiwei, all people today are like brothers. This bow might as well be named after it. ”
Qi Younian glanced at Ji Xiaotang, and then at Second Master Ji, he thought to himself, Second Master Ji was afraid that he also saw the word Tang, which was hinting at something to him.
Qi Younian nodded.
Ji Xiaotang has no opinion.
Whatever its name, it's a treasure bow.
This treasure bow has been named Tang Tang since then, and it is sometimes called Tang in the mouth of the world in the future.
Second Master Ji once predicted that this bow would be lonely in Ji Xiaotang's hands, but later facts proved otherwise. As the name of the divine bow, Tang Tang Zhihua was as famous as the divine bow Houyi later, and almost dominated the rise and fall of a dynasty.
ps: Master Ji Er is a cultural person, and he has a lot of thoughts.......( ̄▽ ̄)
