Chapter 72 Crossbow Arrow
"Why are you here, and you have nothing to eat?"

Zhao Huniu heard the knock on the door, saw that it was Fool Zhao, and said naturally; it seems that Fool Zhao often came to their house to ask for something to eat.

Zhao Huniu is used to it.

As soon as she asked this sentence, she saw Li Chui standing not far away.

She tilted her head slightly,
Immediately react,

"But my crossbow is ready?"

"That's right Miss Zhao,"

Li Chui nodded quickly,
"The iron crossbow you ordered before has been fired, and Dad asked me to send it to you."

"In that case, let's talk at home."

Zhao Huniu took a few steps back to get out of the way, and said to Fool Zhao, "You come in too."

Fool Zhao cheered and entered Zhao Huniu's house, followed by Li Chui; a neighbor nearby recognized that Li Chui's back was not from the village, and looked around curiously.

"There are steamed buns left in the kitchen, go get them and eat them,"

"Sister is so nice!"

After dismissing Fool Zhao, Zhao Huniu looked at Li Chui, the young man understood, and stretched out his hand to untie the burden from his shoulders.

Furoshiki unfolded on the table in the yard,

Among them lay a shiny silver crossbow.

Zhao Huniu's eyes lit up immediately,

She stretched out her hand to pick up the crossbow, her hands were as cold as metal; the weight was just right,

Zhao Huniu looked at Li Chui again,
Li Chui took out a cloth bag from the back of his waist and handed it to Zhao Huniu—in it were dozens of crossbow arrows that also glowed with silver light.

"well,"

Zhao Huniu took the crossbow,
The movement was neatly installed on the crossbow.

There was only a sound of "whoosh", and Li Chui saw Zhao Huniu turning around with her legs pressed, aiming with crossbows in both hands,

In the blink of an eye, the crossbow arrow was shot.The crossbow bolt was firmly nailed to the wall, and it didn't move at all.

"Good! Good!"

Fool Zhao came out of the kitchen with steamed buns in his mouth, and happened to see this scene; he clapped his hands and applauded, trotted in front of Zhao Huniu with bright eyes, and couldn't stop looking back and forth at the crossbow in her hand.

"Sister, sister, what is this, it looks so interesting,"

"It's dangerous stuff,

You can't touch it,"

Zhao Huniu knocked away Fool Zhao's hand that was about to touch, and saw that he was trying to get the crossbow again, so she pushed him away—"Please trouble me, little brother, to pull out the crossbow for me,"

"okay,"

Li Chui walked over and was about to pull the crossbow arrows off the wall for Zhao Huniu.

I walked over and found out,

The crossbow actually nailed a moth to the wall.

Just now he was standing beside Zhao Huniu, when had he seen moths on the wall, not to mention that Zhao Huniu actually had his back to the wall at first,
The moment she loaded her crossbow she turned and shot,

It was able to nail the moths on the wall from such a distance.

Li Chui stretched out his hand to pull out the crossbow, but he failed to pull out the crossbow with all his strength;

It took a few pulls with all my strength to pull out the crossbow arrow.
And where it was pulled out, there seemed to be a hole the size of a crossbow bolt, which was penetrated several times.

Li Chui became more and more surprised, and his fear and admiration for Zhao Huniu increased a little.

"Father said, if this crossbow bolt is good, it needs to minimize the wear and tear; if the crossbow body is stained with blood, it only needs to be wiped dry with a clean handkerchief on weekdays, and it cannot be soaked in water."

He said, taking off his purse,
"This is the money left by the girl before and there is still some money left. Dad asked me to bring it back to the girl."

"Since that's the case, just treat it as Uncle Li's and your salary, and there is no need to return it."

"Daddy said that he knew what the girl would say, and specifically told me not to accept it. The wages and labor costs have been taken away, and he asked the girl to take back the remaining money.

The Li family's iron shop only accepts wages for their efforts, and will never charge customers a penny more. "

"Ha ha ha good,
Then I won't be too hard on others. "

Zhao Huniu calmly accepted the purse, then looked at Fool Zhao who had been eating steamed buns behind them and watching the excitement, and said to him:

"Fool, help me go to the kitchen and make five or six steamed buns, just use the greased paper hanging by the door,"

"I'm not called a fool,"

Fool Zhao pouted suddenly,
"My name is Chunsheng, Chunsheng."

"Chunsheng?"

This is the first time Zhao Huniu has heard of Zhao Fool's name, she smiled slightly,
"Good Chunsheng, help me go to the kitchen and make five or six steamed buns. Thank you."

"Hey, good~"

Zhao Huniu called him by his real name obviously made him happier, he bounced to the kitchen, and after a while he came out holding a paper bag,

It's just that he has one in his mouth,
I don't know if it was in a stolen paper bag or in the kitchen.

"Here, sister, here you are,"

"it is good,"

Zhao Huniu took it and passed it to Li Chui.

"You can take these steamed buns and eat them on the road, and say hello to your father for me. Recently, I am busy preparing for my marriage, so I don't have time to visit. But I will go to see the gun in a few days,"

"Success, get married?!"

"Yes, get married."

A horrified look appeared on Li Chui's face, and then he realized that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment.

"Oh, congratulations, I will tell my father. Then I will take my leave first, Ms. Zhao."

"Well, be careful on the road."

Li Chui came out of Zhao Huniu's house, said goodbye to her, and walked out of Brassica Village along the way he came. Zhao Huniu actually said just now that she was going to get married.

be nice,

If it wasn't for these two words coming out of her mouth, Li Chui wouldn't even believe it.

He almost forgot that Zhao Huniu was a married girl in the Mood for Love,

After all, I saw her talking happily with her father before,
It's no different from my father's friends who are five, three, thick and round.

Words,

What kind of man dares to go to Miss Zhao's
Thinking of the moth whose head was "taken from thousands of miles away" I saw just now,

Li hammer shuddered.

If I want to get married in the future, I still have to choose a gentle one: not as brave as Miss Zhao, and not as aggressive and unreasonable as my sister-in-law.

Xiaohong from the bakery next door is very good.

White and fat, with two dimples when he smiles,
how cute it looks
"Isn't this the young man just now?"

When Li Chui was thinking about the sweet smile of the girl named Xiaohong, he heard someone talking to him beside him; when he looked back, it was not who it was, it was a middle-aged woman in the village who pointed him the way.
Holding the bamboo basket in her arms, the woman said to Li Chui with interest,
"How is it, have you seen Huniu?"

"See you, see you. Thank you, auntie, for showing me the way just now."

"Well, what's the matter,
However, you came all the way to our village to find her, you must have something important, right? "

When she said this, the woman's face became even more interested, as if she had heard the most interesting gossip in the world; Li Chui thought for a while, nodded,
"There is indeed something important. I'm here to deliver something to Miss Zhao."

"Send something? What is something?"

"Crossbow Arrow, Auntie, do you know,

The thing that can shoot a wolf with an arrow, you know? "
