Chapter 974: All Ready

After Jiang Xiaobai tied the skeletons of the two large lanterns, he brought red paper, scissors and paste, and the operation was as fierce as a tiger, and soon the two simple lanterns were ready.

"Baba, the lantern is so beautiful!"

Jiang Shan looked at the red lantern and said happily.

Jiang Xiaobai was also quite satisfied, although in the eyes of craftsmen who specialize in making lanterns, the lanterns he tied were vulgar, but they were finally made.

In the early 80s, there was such a pair of lanterns in a place like Jiangwan, which was not popular, which was unique.

"Isn't there a lantern supposed to have a lamp?"

After Jiang Shan looked at it for a while, she seemed to find that the lantern was not lit and asked.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "I'll go and pull two wires for the door, and then put two light bulbs in the lantern, and there will be lights." ”

"Wow, there's an electric light in the lantern!" Jiang Shan said in amazement, imagining that picture in her mind.

Just do it, Jiang Xiaobai cleaned up and went to the gate to take a look.

At the gate, there were originally two street lamps and wires, which were all brought over, and they only needed to be modified, which saved Jiang Xiaobai a lot of trouble.

Pile up two lantern brackets on the wall, hang the pasted lanterns, and then put the bulb with wires through the hole above the lantern, adjust the length of the wires, and that's OK!

At the gate, as soon as two big red lanterns were hung, there was immediately a festive atmosphere.

"Baba, the red lantern looks good!"

When Jiang Shan saw the lantern hanging up, she liked it even more, and clapped her hands and applauded.

Jiang Xiaobai turned on the original street light switch, and the bulb in the red paper of the lantern lit up, the red paper was a little thick, and it was daytime, the light revealed was very weak, but the red was even more vivid.

"It should work well at night!"

Jiang Xiaobai was not very satisfied, and said comfortingly.

Jiang Shan said with a smile: "I think it's already beautiful!" ”

With her daughter's words, Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but be happy, nodded and said, "Well, then let's see the effect in the evening!" ”

As he spoke, he turned off the switch.

The father and daughter returned to the courtyard, and Jiang Xiaobai began to make bows and arrows for his daughter.

Sharpening the pieces of the bow and weaving the bowstring, these are all easy to do, and the bow and arrows made for his daughter are small, and in less than half an hour, he made a small bow and sharpened several bamboo arrows.

Of course, the arrows are not of the particularly sharp kind.

"Wow, I finally have my own bow and arrow!"

The little guy's father-made bow and arrow was extremely happy, waving the little bow, jumping up happily, and clamoring for Jiang Xiaobai to teach her archery.

Jiang Xiaobai naturally agreed.

However, archery is best to have an arrow target, he said with a smile: "When the New Year is over, let your grandfather Tan help make an arrow target for you, and then stand in the field dam outside, and you can shoot the target in the future." ”

Jiang Shan said: "Then there is no arrow target now, what should I shoot?" ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "It's okay, I'll get you a simple one first." ”

He said simply, really simply, just set up a thicker piece of firewood on the edge of the dam outside, and hang a small old sieve on it.

Of course, he drew several rings on the back of the sieve, and drew a large red heart dot with cinnabar in the middle, which was considered a bull's-eye.

There are bows and arrows, and there are targets.

The next thing is to teach my daughter archery.

In this regard, Jiang Xiaobai is quite talented, and his own skills are also good, so there is naturally no problem in teaching his daughter.

One teaches seriously, and the other learns by heart.

Although archery often misses the target and it is more difficult to hit the bull's-eye, listening to the "pop" sound of the bamboo arrow hitting the sieve, Jiang Shan also feels that it is fun and has a lot of fun.

Jiang Xiaolei even "took the time" to cut a big spotted bamboo next to the cliff behind him.

"Big brother, you help me make bows and arrows!"

Seeing Jiang Shan having fun, Jiang Xiaolei couldn't wait to shoot a few shots with his little niece's bow and arrow.

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and said, "Is the cleaning done?" ”

Jiang Xiaolei shook his head: "Come on, you help me do it first, and when I finish cleaning, I can practice archery!" ”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled "fluttering", and returned the archery!

But he didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "You can arrange it." ”

"Then it's decided!"

"You help me make bows and arrows, and I'll go on cleaning!"

After Jiang Xiaolei finished speaking, he turned around and ran, for fear that Jiang Xiaobai would regret it.

Before, the eldest brother taught him to do it.

But he is very self-aware, how can the bow and arrow he make is as good as that of his eldest brother.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the back of his little brother and smiled, okay, just do it, it's just a toy bow and arrow.

Well, by the way, make two more small bows.

Otherwise, Jiang Ting is shallow-eyed.

Time passed in a hurry, Jiang Xiaobai made a larger "hard bow", as well as two small bows, and sharpened a lot of large and small bamboo arrows, and after cleaning the yard, Jiang Xiaoqing and Jiang Xiaolei also almost completed the cleaning.

Jiang Xiaolei got the bow and arrow, and couldn't wait to run outside to test the archery with his little niece.

Jiang Xiaoqing sat on the chair and said dissatisfiedly: "Big brother, my mother is so partial, she won't let you do anything, and let me and Xiaolei do all the dirty work." ”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled and poured her a glass of water.

Jiang Xiaoqing said again: "There is also Xiaoyu, and my mother doesn't want her to do it." ”

Jiang Xiaobai Yile: "Why did you even pull Xiaoyu's skin?" Do you want Shanshan and Tingting to do the same? ”

Jiang Xiaoqing said angrily: "Can Shanshan and Tingting be the same?" They are only five or six years old, but Xiaoyu is thirteen years old. ”

Jiang Xiaoyu also came out of the study at this time, and just heard Jiang Xiaoqing's words, and said, "Second sister, you and my little brother are not diligent in our family, so my mother let you exercise more." ”

After speaking, he smiled at Jiang Xiaobai: "Big brother, I'm right!" ”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled, Jiang Xiaoyu was indeed very diligent at home, and every time he finished eating, he would take the initiative to clean up the table and wash the dishes, unlike Jiang Xiaoqing and Jiang Xiaolei, who looked like a guest after eating.

"Xiaoyu is very diligent!"

Jiang Xiaobai praised with a smile.

Jiang Xiaoqing listened, and his ears couldn't help but turn red.

It seems that since she went to college, she is really not as diligent at home as before.

No wonder my mother only called me and Xiaolei to clean up.

At this time, Wang Xiuju walked in, and when she saw Jiang Xiaobai, she said, "You washed all the meat!" ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "Anyway, it's okay, I'll wash it." ”

Jiang Xiaoqing listened, his face turned even redder, he originally thought that the eldest brother had done nothing, but he didn't expect him to wash all the bacon.

Ashamed!

Wang Xiuju said: "Why do you wash so much?" Can you finish eating? ”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled: "Now that the conditions are good, just wash a little more, and you have to eat a lot of meat in a New Year." ”

Wang Xiuju thought about it, so she didn't say anything more, and asked, "Uncle Tan helped write all the couplets?" ”

Jiang Xiaobai said: "I have already written it, and I will post it at noon tomorrow." ”

Wang Xiuju seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Then everything is almost ready, and we can have a good reunion tomorrow!" ”

Speaking of the reunion year, Jiang Xiaoqing and Jiang Xiaoyu's faces showed anticipation.
