  Chapter 264 Gifts

   "I don't know what is here?" Akui couldn't help asking.

Shou Ming shook his head and said with a smile: "This is my family's grandson who sent someone to the capital from Ningyang. I just arrived in the capital this morning and only said that it was a New Year gift for Miss Xu-I can't wait for myself to open it at will. of."

  Akui’s eyes brightened: "New Year's gift? Or was it just delivered today? This is the first year of the new year, which is a coincidence!"

  Shou Ming smiled non-committal.

  There are so many coincidences in this world. Many coincidences are nothing but a pile of thoughts.

  "This box looks a bit heavy, and you have to be careful, I have to ask someone to carry it." Akui said, and confessed to Jiading who was guarding the back door.

  The Ding immediately ran to find someone.

   "Brother Shouming, would you like to come in and have a cup of tea to warm yourself up?" Akui invited.

  "You don’t have to eat tea..."

  Shouming spoke, his eyes dodge a little, but in the next moment, he took out the same object wrapped in red cloth from his arms and handed it to Akui.

  "It’s not easy to come to the door empty-handed on the first day of the junior high. This is my New Year gift for Miss Akui."

   for her?

  Akui unexpectedly took it.

  Because the red cloth was simply wrapped outside, she took it and spread it halfway, revealing the blue book cover inside.

   "It's a book." She smiled and said: "How did Shou Ming know that I like reading?"

   Could it be that her erudite and enterprising temperament is too exposed?

"Guess it." Shou Ming said with a smile: "This is not an ordinary book, but something new and rare. I took some new things and old things in Beijing as examples, changed the name and the identity, and wrote it down. Use it as a notebook to relieve boredom!"

   "You actually wrote this?" Akui's eyes widened: "You can still write a notebook!"

  God, in the circle of people in Beijing, has anyone who is more knowledgeable and progressive than her appear?

  Shouming gave a light cough, and said with some embarrassment: "It's nothing to spare, just pass the time."

  Akui treasured the booklet in front of her.

  The script written by Shouming must be the only one that cannot be bought outside, and it is still a real thing!

but……

   "I haven't had time to prepare a New Year's gift for you." Akui was a little dazed, and subconsciously touched the purse on his waist-and did not bring any lucky money.

   So seriously: "You wait a few days, and I will be ready to prepare!"

  Shou Ming smiled and scratched his head: "How embarrassing is this..."

  As everyone knows, the meaning of this sentence has always been-I just accepted it when I was verbally polite.

  The two talked for a while, until they saw Jiading turn back with someone.

  Shouming looked over and saw only a maid coming by, and was feeling puzzled. However, after a closer look, I saw the maid’s appearance-oh, it turned out to be the other big maid next to Xu, that’s all right.

  Azhu came over by himself, without letting Akui help to carry it, and easily carried the box on his shoulders, turned around and left.

  Akui waved to Shouming, hurriedly trot to keep up.

In the   Xi Garden, Xu Mingyi looked at the box and was also surprised for a moment.

  "Girl, this is the key."

  After Akui handed the key to his girl, he pulled Azhu out.

  This is something Wu Shisun gave to the girl, if they see something that shouldn’t be seen, it’s not good.

   Xu Mingyi squatted down and opened the box to look at it, a surprise appeared in his eyes.

   is actually a very delicate longbow!

  Should be to prevent bumps, the bottom of the box is specially made into a groove to fit the bow body.

The girl took out the bow tied with a piece of red cloth and looked at it, and tried to stand up again, and pulled the bowstring-with such a slight pull, you can see that there is a very familiar beast that has been beaten. The tendons and entanglement are also very particular, and they must be the hands of a master who is very good at making bows.

  But... how did Wu Chao know that she likes to use a bow?

  She had never mentioned it to him, nor had she used crossbows and other things in front of him.

   Could it be that——

  Xu Mingyi glanced at the thin cocoons on the pads of his fingers and the tiger’s mouth.

  However, this can only prove that she often practiced archery. She has been practicing martial arts since childhood and must dabble in archery-how could he be sure that she would really like it?

   And if he says that this bow is just a gift he chose at will, it can be seen everywhere that it has taken a lot of thought.

  And on the bow arm, it seems that there are words engraved——

  Xu Mingyi looked intently and saw a line of four characters on the seal: Mingyi Anshun.

  Anshun...

Does    mean stability and success?

  She couldn't help but think that when he was in Ningyang, he asked her what kind of life she liked, and she answered him with the word stability.

   After rubbing her fingertips over the symmetrical seal characters, the girl's cheeks smiled thicker.

  She likes this bow very much.

  However, she suddenly wanted to engrave one more line...!

As soon as the thought of    came out, Xu Mingyi was busy rummaging in the room enthusiastically.

  But she couldn't find the carving knife she put in the box, and even the scissors that Akui kept in the sewing basket on weekdays were missing.

   "Akui!"

   "Hey, the maid is here." Akui walked in quickly.

   "Where is my knife?"

"Ah, girl's knife..." Akui retracted his gaze from the bow held by her girl, and said hurriedly: "Girl, you forgot. It's all put away."

  In the customs of Daqing, it is very taboo to touch these sharp objects on the first day of the new year.

   Only then did Xu Mingyi react, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

   "Then wait for tomorrow."

   "Girl, here's another letter." Akui pointed to the big open box on the ground and reminded.

   Xu Mingyi hung the bow on the wall casually, took the letter from Akui, and opened it.

  After reading the letter, and then replying to it, most of the day has passed.

  ……

On the second day of the next day, early in the morning, Xu Mingyi went to his second uncle’s courtyard.

  I heard that someone came to pass the message, saying that it was the niece who came, and Xu Yun in the bed felt miserable.

  Why is my niece here again?

  Hasn't it been New Year's greetings yesterday! ——Could it be that she still wants to have another fake first year?

  Or do you think he gave too little New Year's Eve money yesterday?

  But my niece’s small vault is so rich, how could he miss these three melons?

   "Let people come in."

  Xu Yun sighed, sat up and leaned against the bed, yawning, and Xiao Si put on his coat.

   "Second Uncle?"

  The girl entered the house, did not rush to approach, but stood outside the screen and shouted.

  Xu Yun said helplessly: "Come in..."

   Xu Mingyi just walked in, with his hands behind his back, and explained his intentions with a smile: "Second Uncle, I have something to ask you for help."

  Help?

  Xu Yun raised his dry eyes to look at his niece.

In   's eyes, the girl took out a bow from behind and shook it towards him.

   "...?" Xu Yun's pupils tightened when he looked at it.

  He didn’t say he didn’t agree...but don’t you need to be so anxious?
