Chapter 179

Mu Changfeng smiled but didn't answer, went outside, closed the door for her, and said, "Wash and eat quickly, I won't wait for you if it's late."

Bu Jingyan smiled, and the whole person fell silent again.

Comb your hair slowly, but dare not look in the mirror for fear of seeing your listless face.Then he washed his face with cold water from the washbasin on the shelf before putting on the human skin mask.

Eating rice cakes, soft and full of aroma, really tastes like Chinese New Year, very warm.

As soon as I went out, I realized that it was a very good sunny day.Mu Changfeng was dressed as a Confucian gentleman in long robes, and his handsome face attracted the admiring eyes of many young girls.As for Bu Jingyan, because the new clothes were not ready, she was still wearing the old commoner clothes given to her by Qinghui's wife. Since she was taller, she wore them hanging a bit, which was obviously nondescript.

When the two of them were walking on the street, they naturally didn't get along.But they didn't take it seriously, Mu Changfeng led her around, and then came to a tailor shop.The middle-aged woman who had measured the size for Bu Jingyan yesterday was sitting inside sewing clothes with needles and threads. When she saw them coming, she immediately grinned and took out two sets of folded light green skirts with a smile and handed them over, "Young master, We all had a night job last night, so we drove out Miss Huang's two dresses, they should fit well, let her try it on now?"

Mu Changfeng smiled and nodded, "Thank you boss for your hard work, let her try it in the inner room now to see if it fits well, if it doesn't work, then change it."

It was also a joy to be amazed at the first step. I followed the boss into the room and came out after a while. As expected, people rely on clothes, and Buddha depends on gold clothes. The humble little girl turned into a tall girl. Although the mask is dark, it cannot hide The people in the sewing shop praised her already delicate facial features.

Mu Changfeng said that there were still a few clothes that he hadn't picked up, and someone would deliver them to the shop later, and then he took her through the streets and alleys. Just when Bu Jingyan was a little impatient, he laughed and said, "It's here." .”

Looking up, there was a low red wall in front of him, and a dilapidated wooden door with mottled red paint barely tied together, Bu Jingyan snorted: "I've been around for a long time, mysteriously, just to see this broken door?"

Mu Changfeng smiled without saying a word, went to knock on the door, and an old voice cursed impatiently: "You bastard, can't you drive it yourself? I'm very busy now, so I don't have time to talk to you."

Mu Changfeng didn't take it seriously, and with a secret movement, the peg broke from inside and fell to the ground with a bang.Push open the door, inside is another world.In a large yard, a large wooden shed is set up with wooden frames. Under the wooden shed are piles of large and small logs. Behind the logs are a few broken tile houses. One forehead is full of wrinkles and his face is not outstanding. A short, middle-aged man was standing in a small open space in front of the tile house, playing with a few wooden carvings.

These wooden carvings are very vivid, but they are also strange to her.

The first one is two wooden horses more than one foot high on the ground. The horses are carved vividly, but their legs are equipped with movable joints, and there are wheels on the bottom of their palms, rattling in their bellies. Then, the two horses walked slowly around the vacated small arena like live horses.

The second is the statues of two young men and women with delicate and handsome faces, and their limbs can also move. The short middle-aged man somehow fiddled with them. It's like riding a horse.

Bu Jingyan was amazed, the art of wood carving is really amazing!

"Fourth Uncle, your male-female double meeting has finally succeeded?" Mu Changfeng was also very surprised, staring at the leisurely couple and horses in the arena and asked.

The fourth uncle finally let go of the hand holding the beauty's back carefully, reluctantly and proudly said: "Naturally, I don't know how much wood was wasted, and hard work pays off. My daughter finally found a good husband." , now you can rest assured."

When he was talking, his eyes still kept on his masterpiece, just like looking at his children, he was very fond of it.

Bu Jingyan wondered why he called a wood carving his daughter, could he be out of his mind?

Leaving this question aside, she is very interested in this kind of movable wood carving, and she couldn't help laughing according to Mu Changfeng's name: "Fourth uncle, these four wood carvings have a set of gears installed in their bellies to drive them. joint movement?"

The fourth uncle was startled, and then turned around to look at Bu Jingyan, blinked his eyes and said in wonder, "Eh? You little girl is quite knowledgeable. It took me a long time to come up with this method, how could you know it just by looking at it?" ?”

"Of course I guessed."

The fourth uncle jumped out from the fence, took her hand and looked up and down strangely. After a long while, he patted his head and suddenly realized: "No wonder I got it right. It turns out that she is a great nobleman. Changfeng, this girl will have a good time in the future." Even for the sake of it, it will benefit you a lot, but you must marry her back to the palace to be your wife."

Before anyone could react, he said again: "But you are too stingy to wear such an ugly mask on her, are you afraid that she will be snatched away?"

Mu Changfeng blushed at his unrestrained words. Fortunately, he couldn't see it because of the mask, but he coughed embarrassingly.

The fourth uncle laughed, and pulled Bu Jingyan to the inner room very affectionately, but said to Mu Changfeng: "You help me to clean up all the things here, in such a mess, I'll take the little girl to drink tea."

Mu Changfeng knew that nothing good would happen when he came, but he had no choice but to help him clean up the messy yard with a wry smile.

Fourth Uncle's small tile house is very simple, with one table and two chairs, the only most luxurious decoration is a wooden sculpture of a young girl with beautiful eyebrows and wearing a pink dress in the middle of the main room.

Sitting down and hearing that he was going to invite her to drink tea, I thought there would be something, but what was poured out of the teapot turned out to be ice-cold black tea, and I don't know how many days old it was.She took a sip out of politeness, and immediately frowned, wishing she could spit it out immediately, it was bitter and sour, is this tea?
The fourth uncle was sitting opposite her, but he was drinking with his legs crossed, "My parents are very talented in woodcarving. If I was not born in the emperor's family, I must be much better than me."

"It can be seen that I have seen his statue, his technique is fast, and he is very similar." Bu Jingyan never dared to touch the tea, sat up straight and smiled, "But I am afraid that it will be impossible in this life to surpass Fourth Uncle .”

"Of course." The fourth uncle nodded and put down the teacup. "This kid has a good heart. He didn't like to hold grudges since he was a child, but he was also very lonely. His mother kept him in the palace like a prisoner. He is not far from her every day, and he still has to learn this and that, and he is not allowed to play with anyone, it is very pitiful."
