Chapter 3: New Life (4)
"Why?" Chizhu said excitedly. "I'll cherish him! I'm sincere, I will cherish the puppet you made, why sell it to her? Why! ”
"I'm sure you'll cherish him, but what if one day he breaks? A better puppet than him appears, will you still cherish him? ”
"I'm ......" Chizhu was stunned, she understood what she meant. She looked at the puppet standing in the corner that had been damaged before she could name it, "I... I don't know.... Chile was also silent.
Zhi looked at Zijin and asked:
"Zijin, I'll sell you the puppet, is it okay?"
"Really?" Zijin couldn't believe it.
Zhi nodded firmly.
Zijin excitedly shook her hand, "Thank you, you don't know, I've really been looking for a long time, really..."
Chile saw that the overall situation had been decided, and decided to take Chizhu and prepare to leave.
"In that case, let's take our leave, Ju'er, let's go!"
"But brother..."Chizhu was a little unwilling.
"Although you are a little temperamental and willful, you still understand reason, don't you?"
Chizhu came to her doll, looked at the doll, touched the wound, and said, "That's... Let's go, brother. ”
"Wait," Zhi said, stopping the two as they were about to leave.
"I don't know if Miss Chizhu can keep your doll, I want to help him make a new pair of arms."
Chizhu didn't expect that the deacon would take the initiative to help him repair the puppet, and he was a little surprised.
"Yes, but how long will it take?" Chile hurriedly helped his sister answer.
"His arm has to be replaced, I don't have a ready-made arm here, I have to redo it, give me three days, you can come over the day after tomorrow, can you?"
"Okay, let's come over the day after tomorrow, thank you to the craftsman."
Chizhu reacted and said thank you. She said to her doll, "You stay here for a few days!" The puppet replied yes. Then he thought about it, took out his money bag, and put it in Zhi's hand, "This is the deposit of his arm, then we will see you in the queen." After that, he pulled Chile and Xiaoyi away.
Now only Zijin and Zhi are left in the house.
"Here is 12,000 monthly coins, I'll give them to you." Zijin immediately put his money bag into Zhi's hand, "I'll make some money for you later." ”
Zhi took out 2,000 monthly coins from the money bag, returned them to Zijin, and said, "I really want to give you the puppet, but after all, I am a craftsman and want to earn money to eat." You don't have to feel that you are taking advantage, since the price is set and you can afford to pay it, then it will be fine, my only hope is that you will cherish him. ”
Zijin looked at Zhi gratefully and said solemnly, "I will." ”
"Then you should make a contract with the puppet first."
"Good!"
Zijin began the contract ceremony, she first found out the energy crystal prepared by Xiao You before, then cut the index finger of her right hand, mixed the blood into the special cinnabar mud, and then used the mixed cinnabar mud to draw the contract on the puppet's chest, put the energy crystal in the center of the contract, and read "Sun, moon and stars, thunder and lightning, the god of dolls, the contract!" ”
The light on the puppet's chest suddenly rose, and the light began to dim after a period of time, and the energy in the energy crystal circulated with the contract, and the contract symbol emitted red and blue fluorescence at this time, and the fluorescence slowly faded, and when the fluorescence and the contract symbol completely disappeared on the chest, the symbol of recognition of the master would appear behind the puppet's ears, and the contract ceremony was completed.
Zijin took back the energy crystal that had turned black, and then waited quietly.
After seeing the ceremony, he sat down at the workbench and began to make a new pair of arms for the red dog's puppet.
It was getting dark outside, and Zhi turned on the light, Zijin was still waiting, and after finishing the general shape of his two arms, he carefully put them in the furnace, lit the fire, and began to roast. Then, Zhi walked up to Zijin and asked, "Still not moving?" ”
As soon as the words ended, the puppet sat up.
"Hello host!" It was a young man's voice.
"You... Hello! "Zijin is a little nervous." That, I... I don't really like not to call me master, you can call me by my name in the future, my name is Zijin. ”
"Okay, Master Zijin."
"That's the word master."
"Yes, Master Zijin."
"......" Zijin was speechless, she felt that her puppet was a little silly. The stubborn person on the side couldn't hold back for a moment and laughed out loud.
"Master Zijin, give your doll a name!" Zhi quipped.
"......" Zijin was speechless again.
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you, have you figured out his name?"
"Let's call Zigui in the future!"
"Why the name?"
"His face is very similar to my father, who has passed away, and I and my father have a child in their names. When I saw him, it was as if my father had returned. ”
"I'm still wondering why you cried before, it turns out that this is the case, it seems that it is in the dark, and it has its own providence!" Zhi sighed.
"In the future, you will call the son to return!" Zijin said to the puppet.
"Okay, Master Zijin."
"I order you to remove the word master in the future!"
"Okay! Zijin. ”
"That's right!" Zijin smiled.
It was also late, Zijin left with Zigui first, she agreed with the executive to come to him tomorrow, and today she took Zigui to buy a new dress and change the birth clothes on her body.
Looking at the other doll that was still wearing a birth dress, I couldn't help but think, "If only your master could cherish you!" ”
