That night, after Wen Shu finished cooking, she saw that her father was still busy in the shop in front of her, so she thought about covering the food and looked for it.

"Dad, is my box ready?"

When she entered, Wentai was bowing his head to pack up his tools, and when he heard this, he pointed to the square stool in the corner and said, "Well, it's done at noon." ”

Wen Shu happily ran forward and looked at the box.

Her father was not a serious carpenter, so he didn't know those complicated carvings, two wooden boxes the size of adult palms, divided into two layers, the surface was bare, if it weren't for the black texture decoration, it would really be an ordinary wooden box.

But Wen Shu was overjoyed, because this wooden box was made of fireproof danmu.

In order not to make her father suspicious, she did not take out all the woods at once, but only took one of them and handed it to him, only saying that she saw it when she was wandering outside, and she picked it up because she thought the texture and color were more special, and then asked him to make a dressing box.

Wen Tai was very reluctant at first, because he felt that the wood Wen Shu gave him was too fine and difficult to make, and it was better for him to make the leftover scraps of the coffin, so he said that he would make something else for her.

But where is Wenshu willing to follow, he said that ordinary wood is not so good-looking, so she has to grind Wentai to make it for her.

Wentai was so bad by her, and there was really no work in those two days, so he agreed, but a small box, because of the small wood, really took him a lot of effort.

Wen Shu took the wooden box and looked it up and down, left and right for a while, then opened the drawer below, and asked, "Dad, is that piece of wood only enough for one?" ”

"Not really, there's still half a section left." He pointed to the remaining wood by the door: "Although this wood is a little smaller, your father and I are also craftsmen, and we will not waste it at will." ”

"That's, Dad's craftsmanship didn't say." Wen Shu praised with a smile, and then hit the snake with the stick and said, "Then dad will make another one for me." ”

Wentai was very happy to hear the first sentence, but the latter sentence made his face darken, and he glared at her and said: "You have a fresh picture, just play with it, the wood is so big, I don't know how hard it takes to make it, don't toss me." ”

"No, Dad." Seeing that ordinary methods couldn't handle him, Wen Shu revealed the efficacy of Danmu, "Do you know what I just discovered?" ”

"What?" Wentai asked casually as he packed up his tools.

Wen Shu's face was full of excitement: "It can't be burned through!" Daddy, this wood is fireproof! ”

"What!" Wentai turned his head in astonishment.

"Really." Wen Shu was afraid that he wouldn't believe it, so he even said: "Didn't I break off the extra branches on the top two days ago, when I was cooking today, I thought it would be useless anyway, so I used it as firewood, who knew that after a meal was finished, the branches stuffed in it were still good, you said it's not strange!" ”

Wen Tai glanced at her, his face was full of suspicion, he had never seen wood that was not afraid of fire in half his life, this girl must have made up nonsense to deceive him!

"Really!" Knowing his father Mo Ruonu, his eyes rolled, Wen Shu knew what he was thinking, and immediately swore and said: "If Dad doesn't believe it, just go to the kitchen and take a look, the branches are still in front of the stove." ”

Wentai didn't bother to pay attention to her, closed the tool box, and walked out, "Okay, your father has been busy all afternoon, and he is already hungry, let's hurry up and eat." ”

"Really, Dad, just a glance, just a glance!" Wen Shu followed, and pulled him to the kitchen without saying anything.

She has great strength, Wentai can't resist her at all, and seeing her so serious, there is also a trace of doubt in her heart, is what she said true?

Thinking about it like this, I can't help but be a little serious.

Wen Shu picked up the burned branch from the ground next to his belly and handed it to Wen Tai, on the thin branch, there were still half-burned leaves, the leaves were originally yellow, but now they are black and yellow.

And the black branches, as usual, were smooth and unremarkable, but the surface was stained with a lot of black ash from the stove, and it was wiped off with your hands.

"Where did you pick up this branch, and is there anything else?"

He thought that if there were a lot of them, he could really cut some back, and it would be excellent to make furniture or houses.

"There are some, but not many, when I saw it at the time, it was about five or six, and the thickness was about the same as this."

"That's all?" Wentai didn't believe it, it is said that if there is a place where the wood breaks, then there must be a lot of such trees growing around it.

Wen Shu knew what her father was thinking, and pretended to be surprised: "Yes, it fell on the side of the road, and the trees growing around it are different from this one, and I don't know where these branches came from. ”

said, and sighed: "I knew it was a baby, I should have moved it all back, and now I don't know if it's still there!" ”

Wen Tai glanced at her and didn't speak, put down the branch, turned around and went out with an uncertain expression, Wen Shu still followed behind and said: "It's a pity, Dad, you said that it would be great if there were many of this kind of trees near the capital, if this kind of wood is used to make a house, wouldn't we and even the entire Tokyo people have to be afraid of walking water." ”

"Are you in the iron box?" Wentai, who was walking well in front of him, suddenly came with such a sentence.

"Huh?" Wen Shu was taken aback, and then hurriedly said: "What did Dad say, isn't the iron box locked in your room all the time, where did I get in." ”

Wen Tai didn't speak, went straight to the room, and then opened the bedside table in front of Wen Shu.

When he saw that the iron box was put in place, his expression froze, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Wen Shu, who followed up: "Then you will go to that place tomorrow to have a look, if the things are still there, they will all be moved back, although these woods are small and fine, but with care, you can also make a lot of things." ”

"Hey, okay." Wen Shu happily agreed.

But in my heart, I secretly said, it's so dangerous!

Fortunately, she had the foresight to make a fake in advance, otherwise she would have been exposed today.

Early the next morning, she pretended to push a small cart out of the house, and then counted the time, sneaked home at the stall where her father was busy in the shop, took out all the wood hidden under the bed in the room, and put it on the stall cart.

Then he pushed the car out, and before entering the courtyard, he deliberately shouted in a loud voice, "Dad, Dad!" ”

Her voice was full of excitement, a feeling of picking up money, Wen Tai heard it in front of her, her body was stunned, and then she quickly ran out.

After seeing that the car was full of branches of different sizes and thicknesses, a rare smile appeared on his serious face, "Okay, okay, you unload the things first, the weather is good these days, let it dry for a few days, and then get it when I finish the work at hand." ”

Wen Shu nodded, curious: "What is that dad going to do?" ”

"The thickest two will give you a dowry box, and the two thinner ones will be a dressing box and a small dark grid, which can be sold to others at a high price if you can't use them, and some of the remaining twigs can also be used to make hand sticks." Wentai arranged the timbers on the car one by one.

Wen Shu felt quite reasonable and nodded.
