The second uncle of the Zhou family is named Zhou Yong. He has a low self-esteem due to his lameness. He rarely raises his head when going out and does not go out unless necessary. Now he was called by Yan Mu'an to question him and it took him a long time to say something. 'yes'.

Mrs. Zhou dealt with it for him, "Second uncle is more reserved, Princess, don't mind."

Before Yan Muan could speak, a sudden voice sounded from behind, "Are you Princess Yong'an?"

What caught his eye was a woman in her thirties. She had an ordinary appearance and a lot of freckles on her face, but her eyes were big and bright. Mrs. Zhou couldn't hold back the smile on her face, "This is My sister-in-law."

"It turns out to be Sister Zhou."

The sister-in-law of the Zhou family was unhappy, "I am only thirty-two and still very young. If the princess doesn't mind, you can call me Miss Zhou, or Ms. Zhou."

There is something else that Yan Muan doesn't understand about this familiar feeling and familiar formula. The condition of wearing it is not very good. Maybe he didn't bribe Erpiao.

At this moment, Mrs. Zhou was extremely glad that she had told the princess earlier that her sister-in-law had a bad mind. Otherwise, how could she have stepped down today?

Yan Mu'an didn't mind either, smiled and nodded, "Miss Zhou."

Sister Zhou nodded with satisfaction and took a step forward, "I heard from my sister-in-law that the princess is a good person."

Yan Mu'an thought this evaluation was still very high.

Sister Zhou turned her head and glanced at the second uncle of the Zhou family, and then said to Yan Mu'an: "Princess, look at my second brother. He is very good at craftsmanship. He can do carpentry. He can make exquisite mechanisms, although he is just a child's play." Yes, but maybe it will be useful?”

Yan Mu'an admired her courage. No matter what era she was in, she never spoke so directly. Could it be that she was so stimulated after wearing it?

"The second uncle of the Zhou family can be a spy?"

Mrs. Zhou was not very clear about this. She only knew that her second uncle would make some small gadgets when going out to exchange money, but they were all for children to play with. Sister Zhou nodded, "Yes, and he does it very well. He also gives it to the children." I made a small bow and arrow, and the accuracy is pretty good, I’ll go back and bring it to you now.”

Sister Zhou was very anxious, "Just wait for me. I'll go back and get it for you to see."

After saying that, he turned around and ran. The running style was the same as sprinting 800 meters on the school playground. It was so fast and furious. Anyway, no woman in this world could run at such a heroic pace.

Mrs. Zhou's whole body was not feeling well. She didn't know whether to kneel down or pretend not to see anything at this moment. The second uncle of the Zhou family was even more decadent. How could those things made for little babies be delivered to the princess? I opened my mouth several times but didn't say a word. The more anxious I became, the less I could speak.

Yan Mu'an smiled and said: "Miss Zhou is impatient. Since she is so thoughtful, just wait for her."

Mrs. Zhou smiled reluctantly, "It made the princess laugh."

"It doesn't matter. Miss Zhou praises it so much. It must be a good thing. Good things are worth waiting for."

It was okay if I didn't say this, but when I mentioned it, Mrs. Zhou and the second uncle of the Zhou family became even more uneasy.

At this time, Yan Huailin was reading out the list of winners this time on the stage. The list of C-level winners was posted directly. Someone was chanting on the stage, countless people were still clapping, and those who got the prizes almost laughed with their teeth out.

"The second-class winners are Huang Daming from "Lai Cai Family", Zhou Yong from "Flying Crossbow", and Liu Wenchang from "Returning to the Ship". Let us congratulate these three skillful hands. Are the three skillful hands here?"

"Huang Daming, Zhou Yong, Liu Wenchang, are they here?"

The people watching the fun below helped shout, and soon someone raised their hands, "Coming, coming, coming~"

"Second uncle, are you here? I heard your name."

Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red with excitement, "I'm talking about the Feitian Crossbow. Isn't it the crossbow you carved?"

The second uncle of the Zhou family raised his head and looked at the table, "It's...it's me."

His voice was low, so Yan Muan asked the guards behind him to deal with him. The guards were furious, and then shouted loudly, "Feitian Crossbow Zhou Yong is here~"

The loud voice made everyone turn their heads. The guard stood behind Yan Muan without changing his expression. When had the second uncle of the Zhou family been watched by so many people? He was immediately frightened. Mrs. Zhou was smiling all over her face. , "Come up quickly, we're all waiting."

The prizes for the second class include fifty taels of silver, one chicken, one lamb, two big fish, twenty kilograms of pork, and two pieces of fine cloth. If the family adds some more, they should be able to find a wife for the second uncle.

Mrs. Zhou immediately decided that she could not let her brother-in-law take the money, nor give it to her sister-in-law. The second brother and sister had been dead for many years, so the second uncle should marry again and have a wife.

As a sister-in-law, this matter has been decided by her, and it won't be easy for anyone to say.

When the second uncle of the Zhou family came on stage, Yan Huailin said a few words and asked people to carry the gifts up. In addition to the second uncle of the Zhou family, the other two winners were the whole family who went out to move things. He did not forget to say to everyone: "I have always dreamed of winning a prize, and now I finally got it, hahahaha. If it is held again next year, I will still participate."

With this year's experience, they will do better next year.

The second uncle of the Zhou family didn't say a word. He couldn't say it at all, and his face turned red with anxiety. The two boys Mrs. Zhou arranged to bring came up and took the things away. After everyone got off the stage, Yan Huailin announced the first place. , the first place was the son of a wealthy businessman. He laughed loudly when he came on stage. After winning the prize, he announced on the spot that he would donate a thousand taels to the Chengxi Warmhouse and add food to everyone. He was unanimously praised by everyone.

"Coming, I'm coming."

When the second uncle of the Zhou family came down from the stage, Sister Zhou ran back again. Her face was red as she ran in the winter, and she kept breathing. When she saw a pile of things on the side, she punched the second uncle of the Zhou family with her fist. On the uncle's shoulder, "I'll just say no, you are so skillful, you will definitely win the prize if you take action."

"Is it first prize or second prize?"

The second uncle of the Zhou family was obviously a little closer to Sister Zhou when he faced her, "She's a second-class lady."

"Second class, that's pretty good too."

Sister Zhou smiled and threw the baggage she brought on the ground, squatted down and opened it. There were four or five gadgets inside, including a crossbow suitable for children. Yan Muan took it over and studied it carefully. The crossbow looked a bit like a gun she had seen before. Sister Zhou took it from her hand and mounted a small wooden arrow on it. "Look, you can aim here. You just need to aim at the target and pull the button below. The arrow went out.”

The small wooden sword flew out with a 'whoosh' sound, hit the opposite wall, and then fell to the ground. Sister Zhou continued: "This can fire three arrows in a row, and it is easy to assemble. You said that if you replace this crossbow with The bows and crossbows made of fine materials will be replaced by iron ones, how powerful they will be."

"I've asked around, and the crossbows used in the army are not as powerful as this."

Yan Muan carefully played with the crossbow in his hand, "Have you never told General Zhou about this?"

"I told you."

Sister Zhou was very annoyed, "That slender head only knows how to do hard work. He said that the imperial court has people who specialize in developing weapons, and asked us to stay quiet. He also said that the military has strict control."

Yan Mu'an smiled. Sure enough, if he wasn't his brother, he could scold him casually.
