Chapter 3626: Don’t be partial
Xiaohua sat there, stroking her bulging belly with both hands.
Hearing this, he blushed and nodded obediently, "Yes, what brother Da'an means is what I mean. I am also looking forward to giving birth to the child as soon as possible, and I also want to return to the village."< br>
The conversation shifted to the child, and the melancholy from before gradually faded away.
In Chen'er's room, Chen'er was chatting with his uncle Xiaoan about interesting things on the battlefield.
Xiao An spoke with great joy, even gesticulating while speaking, while Chen'er held her cheeks in her hands and listened with rapt attention.
Finally, Xiao An said to Chen'er: "Chen'er, you know, when I was your age, my brother-in-law, your father, whittled a sword for me out of wood."
“I was practicing kung fu with that wooden sword. I got up every day to do horse steps, boxing, and stabbed sandbags with the wooden sword.”
“At that time, I did I have always dreamed of having a sword of my own. I know that only by joining the army and going to the battlefield can I have the opportunity to pick up a real sword. Now, my dream has come true. Look, how good my sword is. I have killed ten enemy heads with my own hands with it!"
When Chen'er heard Xiao An's words, she also reached out her hand and stroked the sword in Xiao An's hand very excitedly.
"Chen'er, do you have a sword?" Xiao An asked.
Chen'er smiled and nodded: "Yes."
"Is it a wooden sword?" Xiao An asked again.
Chen'er said: "There are both wooden swords and precious swords. In the arsenal of Donghai Mansion, there are bows and arrows, Langya sticks, Fang Tian painted halberds, spears..."
"But everything is Weapons with names and numbers on the weapon list are all in the warehouse!”
Hearing this, Xiao An's eyes lit up.
“I really want to see it!” he said.
Chen'er said with a smile: "When my grandfather comes back later, after I tell him, I will definitely take my uncle to visit the armory. I can give it to him whatever weapons he likes. Uncle!"
"Really?" Xiao An asked excitedly.
Chen'er nodded, "How dare your nephew deceive your uncle?"
Xiao An nodded excitedly, then stretched out a palm and gave Chen'er a slap on the palm: "Okay, then it's a deal!"
"Xiao An, Chen'er..."
< br>Yang Ruoqing's voice suddenly came from outside the house.
The conversation in the room stopped abruptly, Xiao An responded, and Chen'er hurriedly opened the door.
Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang standing at the door, Chen'er took a step back and bowed obediently, "Dad, Mom."
Xiao An also followed and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, why didn't you go back to your house to rest this late at night?"
Yang Ruoqing said: "No, you are going back to the Acropolis tomorrow, you and I My brother-in-law came over for something."
After the couple entered the house, Yang Ruoqing took out two brocade boxes and placed them on the table.
One was pushed in front of Chen'er, and the other was placed in front of Xiao An.
“The items in these two brocade boxes were brought back from the southwest by your brother-in-law,”
"One is for Chen'er as a gift for the exam."
"The other is for you, Xiao An. You two should keep it properly." Yang Ruoqing said.
Chen'er and Xiao An looked at each other, then looked at Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang smiled faintly and said, "Let's take a look at the gift first and see if you like it."
Chen'er and Xiaoan quickly lowered their heads to unpack the contents of their respective brocade boxes.
"Wow, this is..." Chen'er picked up the pocket watch strung on a gold chain with a novel look on his face.
Yang Ruoqing said: "This is called a pocket watch. It is similar to an hourglass. It is used to calculate the time of the day. However, because it comes from a foreign country, it is not the same as the time we usually use. slightly different, I'll tell you later, and you'll understand. It's very practical for you to use when studying in the academy."
Hearing Yang Ruoqing's words, Chen'er's eyes lit up, and he held it with both hands. A pocket watch, looking like he couldn’t put it down.
Here, Xiao An also picked up the items in his brocade box, "What is this?"
he asked with a confused look on his face.
Luo Fengtang said: "Pick it up, put it in front of your eyes, and then look at the barrel in the corner over there."
Xiao An did as he was told, and after a while, he exclaimed in surprise.
“Oh my god, how did that wooden barrel suddenly reach in front of my nose? I saw it so clearly and vividly,” he said.
"This is called a telescope. As the name suggests, it is used to expand your vision." Luo Fengtang explained.
"On the battlefield, or in defending the city in the county, this thing can come in handy, so you can keep it." Luo Fengtang said again.
Xiao An looked excited. He held the telescope in front of his eyes for a while, and then put it down again. Such repeated tests were extremely novel.
Chen'er also came over, and the two of them exchanged and admired each other's gifts. Both of them were excited and happy.
They didn’t even have to say any hypocritical polite words to refuse, which shows how much they like these two gifts.
When Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang walked out of their house and closed the door, they could still vaguely hear their excited voices.
Yang Ruoqing smiled: "They can play with these two gifts all night, they are still children after all!"
Chen'er is only over seven years old, and Xiao An is only fourteen or fifteen years old. In modern times, this is not the case. One is only in first grade and the other is in junior high school!
"Qing'er, when we return to the village, remember to buy more gifts for our daughter and Dazhi."
Luo Fengtang suddenly told Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, and then understood his intention.
The gifts he brought back were given to Chen'er and Xiaoan respectively, but Bao Bao and Dazhi naturally failed.
"You, there is no need to feel guilty. Not everything has to be settled with a bowl of water." Yang Ruoqing enlightened Luo Fengtang.
“Besides, gifts should be given to the right people. Telescopes and pocket watches are of no use to the baby or Dazhi.”
“Giving them to the two of them is also a waste. It's better to buy Dazhi a set of Four Treasures of the Study, he likes those, and as for Baby Luo..."
Yang Ruoqing suddenly paused.
"What should I buy for the baby?" Luo Fengtang asked.
Yang Ruoqing smiled a little awkwardly and said: "This child is grown up now, and he can't live with a pair of silk flowers, two new clothes, and a few packs of snacks!"
"What should we do?" Luo Fengtang asked, racking his brains to see what he could buy to please his daughter.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Actually, there is something that will definitely impress her, because she has been thinking about it for a long time, but I am not willing to give it to you!"
"What is it?" Luo Fengtang asked again ask.
Yang Ruoqing raised her finger and pointed at her waist: "Your daughter, you have been thinking about my black gold soft whip for a long time!"
"If it doesn't work, I will give her this whip to prevent her from saying that we are partial. ." she said.
Luo Fengtang said: "This whip of yours was given to you by your sworn brother, Master Zuo. He has been with you for nearly ten years and has come and gone through wind and rain. You should keep it for yourself!"< br>
“As for my daughter, I promise to give her a better soft whip when I return to the village. I’m sure she will like it!”
