Chapter 231: Mid-Autumn Festival
At dusk, Uncle Ming drove the car back home with Xiao Han and a few people, Xiao Han and the others were very excited, obviously following Mr. Wu to visit friends today has gained a lot.
When the An family came over, in addition to Uncle Xia and Aunt An, there were also Xia Wu and Xia Xiaoba, and there was another person who surprised Xiao Ming even more.
Shi Tingyu, I didn't expect him to come back.
But he didn't take Xiaodou'er with him, isn't that his son, Xiao Ming put a big question mark in his heart.
Fortunately, Shi Tingyu just glanced at Xiao Ming, nodded lightly at her in the air, and didn't know what she was thinking, otherwise he would really be depressed, thinking that he was so old and hadn't married a daughter-in-law, but Xiao Ming thought of him as a father with a son, maybe how wronged!!
At this time, Shi Tingyu let go of the burden in his heart, his mood was easy-going and calm, and he actually compared Xiao Han and Xiao Yu's studies and martial arts, and also passed a few tricks with Xiao Han, but Xiao Han was subdued in a few rounds, and called Brother Shi affectionately, asking him to guide him in archery.
"My fourth cousin is amazing, I think he passed the examination back then, and his martial arts are even higher than me." Xia Xiaoba praised Shi Tingyu next to Xiao Ming.
"That's amazing." Xiao Ming was surprised, she only knew that Shi Tingyu's martial arts were not weak, especially after seeing his one-handed archery skills, he was really superb, and he was born in a hundred steps, but she didn't expect him to be a good person.
"That is, I think that my cousin was only sixteen years old and was both civil and military, the first person in the capital, General Baiyu, and the girl who wanted to marry him could line up from the city gate to the foot of the imperial city." Xia Xiaoba became proud, there was no one on his lips, and blurted out to expose Shi Tingyu's origin.
"Hachi." Xia Wu shouted in a deep voice, with a warning in his eyes, at this time, he was not at all as miserable as when he was poisoned a month ago, so that people couldn't see that he was seriously ill at all, his thin lips were pursed, he was not angry and arrogant, and he successfully shocked Xia Xiaoba.
"Huh."
Xia Xiaoba was reprimanded by this, sobered up, knew that he was speechless, smiled uncomfortably, closed his mouth tightly and stopped talking.
Capital! It turned out that he was from the capital, but why did he come here, Xiao Ming was puzzled.
What does General White Jade mean? Could it be that Shi Tingyu is a general.
It's a pity that after Xia Xiaoba was reminded by Xia Wu, he refused to say another word.
Xia Zhongquan, Yi Feng, and Uncle Ming were talking about something on the side and waiting for the meal, and Shi Tingyu was nodding Xiao Han's standing posture of archery.
Xiao Han stood in the courtyard, drawing a bow and shooting arrows, drawing the bull's-eye, without squinting, and several other children stood aside and watched enviously.
"The front hand should be wrist level, the back hand should be elbow level, and the wrist and elbow of the front and back hands should be shoulder level, and adjust the breathing." Shi Tingyu stood sideways, holding Xiao Han's arm with one hand and a half, and guiding the position of the bullseye in front of him with the other.
"Keep your eyes straight, look straight ahead, yes, aim, hold it." The bowstring was slowly being pulled to the full moon, and Xiao Han looked straight ahead, holding his breath, a little nervous.
With a bang, the feather arrow hit the bull's-eye, which made Xiao Han jump up with joy, and Xiao Yu's little hairy children even slapped their hands and shouted.
"Yes." Xiao Han was overjoyed, it was the first time he hit the red heart, although Xia Xiaoba and Uncle Yi Fengming were not weak in martial arts, they were so-so in archery, it would be good if he could shoot the target, and he had not hit the red heart like today.
"Yes, come again." Shi Tingyu nodded, and pulled out another arrow and handed it to him.
"Uncle Shi, teach me, I want to learn." Xiao Han pleaded, his eyes full of longing.
Shi Tingyu smiled, always feeling that the child in front of him was smiling like a person, "You are too small now, your arm strength is insufficient, you can't pull this big bow, I'll make you a small bow and teach you again, okay?" ”
"Okay." Xiao Han pursed his mouth, he also knew that he had little strength, so he had to agree.
"And me, I'm going to learn too." Chen Yuanze shouted and came over, how could he be so rare on this occasion.
"Okay."
So there was another Chen Yuanze who followed Shi Tingyu to learn archery, but Chen Yuanze, who had no kung fu foundation, was much worse than Xiao Han, and his strength was small, he was completely a weak chicken, and the arrows released couldn't reach the target position, which made everyone laugh.
"It's time to eat." An Shi walked out, wearing an apron around her body, thinking that after she arrived at Xiao's house, she went to the kitchen to help.
"It's time to eat, it's time to eat." A group of children cried out for joy and scrambled to the kitchen.
There are three large round tables in the hall, Xiao Ming has already said that today's festival does not pay attention to the false etiquette of these masters and servants, but the men and women sit separately, and everyone sits together to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival lively.
The dinner was very rich, full of a big table, An's looked at it, sighed in his heart, my good boy, prawns, braised abalone, chicken stewed mushrooms, steamed sea bass, and other ingredients, even than the banquet of the big families in the city is not bad.
In fact, these An's also have food in the Xiao family every day, but they are not as complete as they are today, which makes her amazed.
At the dinner table, everyone was unrestrained, lively and lively, with the laughter of children and the sound of grabbing food.
After the meal, the moon rose, Xiao Ming led a group of people to the courtyard to enjoy the moon, it was still early, Xiao Ming suggested again: "There are so many of us, it's not fun to sit down, how about we play games together." ”
"What game to play, I want to play." Chen Yuanze was the first to respond, and they were also looking at it excitedly, Xiao Yu's face was flushed, and he was so cute.
"Let's throw the pot." Xiao Ming found a wide-mouthed pot-bellied bottle and came out, put down five steps away, and took a feather arrow.
"Whoever can throw the feather arrow into the pot will win, and he can continue to throw it without being replaced, how about it?" Xiao Ming introduced the gameplay, the gameplay is very simple, you can understand it as soon as you listen to it, that is, standing five steps away, this distance is a bit difficult for their children.
"Okay, I will." Chen Yuanze said, he has played this, "But if you win, my sister has to give some lottery heads." ”
"Of course there are rewards." Xiao Ming thought for a while before saying, "Vote for a moon cake, and five arrows for a jar of fruit wine or canned food." ”
"Okay, I'm going to play." Everyone raised their hands after listening to the reward, this reward is not small, there will be a prize if you vote, and you will have fruit wine and canned food if you accumulate five sticks, but it is not bad, not to mention fruit wine, no one dislikes the taste of canned food.
"Okay, I'll do it first." Xiao Ming said, and took out the feather arrow in his hand.
It's a pity that the feather arrow and the pot passed by and missed.
"Oh, no, next."
"I'll come." You line up, Chen Yuanze shouted with an arrow, but unfortunately he didn't hit either.
A group of people played like this, not in the sigh, cast in the natural smile, the most powerful is the pear, in the temptation of eating, this girl burst out of unprecedented potential, the first time there was a three-in-a-row, in the third round of the accumulation of five, for a jar of cans, the children who did not hit the stimulus do not want, like a chicken blood want to vote.
After a few rounds, everyone more or less shot, among them, only Chen Yuanze was the most depressed, even Xiao Yu and Bai Xiaoyu, who were younger than him, were shot, but he is still a zero duck egg, after failing again, Chen Yuanze looked at the sky speechlessly, this is more than a depressed thing.
