Volume 1 Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 100 Chinese New Year's Eve
After listening to Xiaoshan's troubles about what gifts to bring, Shopkeeper Liu nodded and smiled: "Little brother, you are completely asking for trouble!"
"Oh, what did Shopkeeper Liu say about this?" Xiaoshan wondered.
Shopkeeper Liu didn't rush to solve Xiaoshan's doubts, first glanced around the first floor, and then pointed upstairs and then to the feet.
"This entire Treasure Pavilion belongs to the Feng family. The little brothers of the Treasure Pavilion also participated, and you said that they had never seen any rare treasures. Ordinary treasures are just mundane things in their eyes, and no matter how much money the little brothers spend on gifts, they are not rare. ”
Hearing what Shopkeeper Liu said, Xiaoshan thought so.
"What does Shopkeeper Liu mean?"
"Since Dean Feng invited you to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, it means that he didn't treat you as an outsider. You are a junior, as long as you have your heart in mind, as for what the gift is, it doesn't matter. ”
Xiaoshan nodded, he felt that what Shopkeeper Liu said was very reasonable. So, Xiaoshan picked up the teacup on the table and said, "Thank you Shopkeeper Liu for your advice, today I will first toast Shopkeeper Liu with tea instead of wine, and I will definitely have a good time with Shopkeeper Liu another day." ”
Shopkeeper Liu picked up the teacup and hurriedly said: "Don't dare to be! Don't dare to be! As long as the little brother Qianzhong is prosperous in the future, don't forget someone Liu." ”
"Definitely!"
After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, Xiaoshan no longer wandered around the city, and went back to Fengyun Academy directly. He thought that since it was not appropriate to buy any gifts, he would simply do it himself.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers, drums and laughter were everywhere in Fengyun City. At this time, Xiaoshan just stepped into the gate of the Wind Mansion.
I have to say that Xiaoshan came at a good time. Fengfu's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is still ready, and Feng Buxi, Li Xiangjun, Feng Wuxiang, and Feng Qianyu have all been served, and it seems that they are waiting for Xiaoshan.
Seeing Xiaoshan walk into the door of the living room, Feng Bu stood up with a smile on his face and said, "Qianzhong, you are here, just waiting for you, hurry up and take a seat!"
"Happy New Year Uncle Feng! Happy New Year Auntie!" After greeting the two elders of the Feng family, Xiao Shan handed over the gift in his hand to the maid next to him, and sat between Feng Qianyu and Feng Wuxiang.
It stands to reason that Feng Qianyu is also an elder, but everyone in this room knows that Feng Qianyu is unwilling to let people treat her as an elder.
Who knows, as soon as Xiaoshan sat down, Feng Qianyu was "difficult". I think it's because Xiaoshan just ignored her.
"You kid even know how to bring gifts? Come, let me see what you have brought?" said Feng Qianyu and beckoned to the maid who was holding Xiaoshan's gift.
"A thousand words!" Feng Buxi frowned.
Feng Qianyu completely ignored his eldest brother, took a wooden box from the maid's hand and opened it directly.
Li Xiangjun only knew the temperament of her sister-in-law, so she could only watch helplessly. And Feng Wuxiang is a posture of watching a good show.
The box contains a small bamboo tube, the wall of the tube is hollowed, engraved with three kinds of flowers of plum chrysanthemum. It looks like a pen holder.
"I guess it's for the eldest brother! Feng Qianyu played with the pen holder for a while, and then handed the pen holder to Feng Buxi.
Feng Buxi took it over and observed it for a while, then looked up and said to Xiaoshan: "Qianzhong, did you do it yourself?"
Xiao Shan nodded a little embarrassed and said, "I don't know what to send to Uncle Feng, it just so happens that there is a bamboo forest on the side of our ancient martial arts department, so I made one from local materials." The craftsmanship is rough, don't dislike Uncle Feng. ”
"Of course I don't dislike it!" After speaking, Feng Buzhi handed the pen holder to a maid beside him, and ordered, "Put it on my desk." ”
"I didn't expect that Qianzhong would be so good at cultivating that he would make these gadgets. I'm really looking forward to what Chiju sent me. Feng Wuxiang looked at the two remaining wooden boxes in the maid's hands.
"I have long heard that a young talent came to the ancient martial arts department this year, and he is still the descendant of his life-saving benefactor. I've always wanted to see each other, but I'm a woman, and I don't like to go out, so I've been delayed. When I saw it today, it was really a talent. It's just a pity..."Li Xiangjun sighed as he spoke.
"What is a pity?" said Xiaoshan with a puzzled face.
The wind is also looking at his wife with a puzzled face.
Seeing that everyone at the table was looking at him, Li Xiangjun pursed his lips and smiled: "It's a pity that he looks so handsome, he turned out to be a boy." If this is a girl, I will definitely let you be the daughter-in-law of our Feng family!"
"Poof!" Li Xiangjun laughed out loud as soon as he finished speaking, and then laughed very imagelessly.
Feng Buxi shook his head with a smile, Feng Wuxiang sighed helplessly, and Xiaoshan looked embarrassed.
However, Li Xiangjun's little joke changed the atmosphere at the dinner table, and also brought Xiaoshan and them closer at once.
Feng Qianyu smiled enough, then turned his head to Xiaoshan and said, "Since everyone is so interested in you, I see that you can introduce the rest of the gifts yourself, and I am also very curious about what you have prepared for me." ”
Xiaoshan nodded, and did not refuse. He took a wooden box from the maid next to him and handed it to Li Xiangjun and said, "This is what I prepared for my aunt, I heard that my aunt has always liked poetry books, so I copied a volume for my aunt." ”
Li Xiangjun took the wooden box and opened it, and found that it was a roll of bamboo slips, which seemed to be newly made by Xiaoshan from local materials.
Spread out the bamboo slips, only to see a few poems engraved on the bamboo slips with block seals.
"The Book of Songs!" Li Xiangjun exclaimed.
"The Book of Songs" is said to be a collection of poems left over from ancient times, because the time is too long, and there are very few that have been circulated in the world today.
Li Xiangjun used to be a lady, and she loved to read, so she was no stranger to the Book of Songs.
"I've read all the "Book of Songs" that have been circulated in the world, but I haven't seen a few of them, where did you copy them from!" Li Xiangjun didn't care about everyone's demeanor at the moment, and asked with an anxious look at Xiaoshan.
Xiaoshan didn't expect Li Xiangjun to have such a big reaction, but after thinking about it, for people who love books, it is normal to have such a reaction when they see a unique book.
"My grandfather had a lot of books, most of them were ancient books, I had read them before, so I remembered a lot. Xiaoshan explained with a smile.
"It turned out to be the collection of books of the predecessors of the dust, no wonder. Feng Bu nodded and said.
Li Xiangjun carefully re-rolled the bamboo slips, put them into the wooden box, and said to Xiaoshan while holding the wooden box: "Thank you, Qianzhong." I love this gift so much!"
"Madam, no matter how much you like it, you can't hold on to it and not let go! Let's eat first, and you can watch it slowly when you have time later." Feng Bu looked at his wife's love for bamboo slips, and smiled helplessly.
"Don't be in a hurry to eat! Isn't there another gift for Chiju, I would like to know if this last one is for my aunt or for me. ”
As soon as Feng Wuxiang said this, Feng Qianyu also looked at Xiaoshan and raised his eyebrows, and his tone was playful: "Yes, who are you giving this last gift to?"
Taking the last long wooden box, Xiaoshan said to Feng Wuxiang: "I remember that at the birthday banquet of Brother Feng and Yun Dagongzi, Brother Feng once gave Yun Dagongzi a guqin called 'Lu Qi'. I think Brother Feng should have some research on music, I don't have the same big hand as Brother Feng, so I had to make a musical instrument for Brother Feng by myself. ”
Feng Wuxiang took the wooden box and opened it, only to see that the box was a tube of bamboo Xiao. Obviously, this is made of local materials from Xiaoshan.
"Oh yes, you're going to let our Feng Dagongzi learn to blow the flute!"
Xiaoshan scratched his head and said a little embarrassed: "Time is limited, it's indeed a bit rushed." ”
After putting away Zhu Xiao, Feng Wuxiang didn't say whether he liked it or not, but sighed lightly and said: "Alas! Some people have nothing, it's really pitiful!"
Obviously, the wind is falling into the well.
Xiaoshan is not stupid, as soon as Feng Wuxiang's words are finished, Xiaoshan feels that something is wrong. Turning his head, he saw Feng Qianyu looking at himself with a smile.
"That, Sister Wind. I've hung your gift for you outside the window of your little building in the academy, and you can see it when you go back. Xiaoshan hurriedly explained.
"Hmph! If I don't see it when I go back, you can ask for more blessings!" Feng Qianyu looked at Xiaoshan and smiled "gently".
"Well, I've seen this gift too. Let's eat!" After all, the wind is not stopping, and he still has the majesty of the head of the family.
Feng Wuxiang's injury had not fully recovered, so he ate with everyone for a while, and did not drink, so he went back to rest.
Feng Qianyu and Li Xiangjun have been there, but the two of them are women, and they should not drink, so they can only accompany them on the side, watching Xiaoshan and Feng Buxi drink.
Perhaps influenced by the festive atmosphere, Xiaoshan and the wind did not eat much, but drank a lot of wine. Feng Qianyu and Li Xiangjun did not persuade them, and on such a Chinese New Year's Eve in a year, they were indulged by two men.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was almost eaten, and the original meaning of the wind was to let Xiaoshan stay and keep the New Year together. However, Xiaoshan refused, because he still had something to do.
Xiaoshan didn't deliberately use his strength to suppress the strength of the wine today, so he was already a little fluttery when he left. In the end, Li Xiangjun had no choice but to let Feng Qianyu send Xiaoshan back to Fengyun Academy.
After sending Xiaoshan back to the cabin, Feng Qianyu did not leave directly, but waited until Xiaoshan was asleep.
Back in his small building, Feng Qianyu came to the window facing Biyun Lake. When I opened the window, I heard a pleasant "ding dong" sound.
It was a string of wind chimes, also made of bamboo.
A palm-sized round bamboo board is surrounded by two layers of bamboo cylinder circles, each layer of which has a small circular bamboo board, and a thin small bamboo piece falls under the bamboo board. As soon as the wind blows, the small bamboo pieces will drive the small bamboo boards to knock on the surrounding small bamboo tubes, making a pleasant "ding dong" sound.
Two thin pieces of bamboo are engraved with two characters each: thousand, language.
A gust of wind blew, and the wind chimes made another "dingdong" sound, and Feng Qianyu closed his eyes, as if he was listening with his heart.
