Butterfly [The Great Austrian Woman Version]

Early the next morning, someone knocked on the courtyard door.Ah Yuan came back after going out for a while, and said, "It's Mr. He, please come and sit with Master Mei." Both Lai Fang and Yu Xumo were taken aback, and the latter waited for Lai Fang's instructions.Lai Fang thought for a while, then nodded, "Go."

"Miss, this Mr. Crane is quite unpredictable. I don't know what it means to choose this time. It's better to be careful." A Yuan couldn't help reminding that Mr. Crane was too moody and unpredictable.The deadlock between them and the second lady is over, it doesn't matter if they offend another one or let someone use it as a gun at this time.

Lai Fang just got up and said, "Wait for a while." He turned and went up to the second floor, and after a while, he came down, holding a palm-sized wooden box in his hand. "This is the return gift of the dagger that I promised him before, Mei, please send it for me."

Yu Xumo took over the quaint box, polished the surface very smooth, painted red lacquer, rounded corners and edges, very handy.He glanced at Lai Fang hesitantly, but the latter was quite interested, and said, "Open it first and have a look, and I'll explain to you how to use it."

Yu Xumo opened the box, and Ah Yuan came over curiously. "Ah!" Ah Yuan exclaimed, and Yu Xuma's eyes lit up.Inside the box is a hanging ornament, an oval wood carving three fingers wide, with a red tassel on the bottom, and a beautiful knot at the joint.Yu Xumo took out the pendant and rubbed it gently with his fingers. The wood was carved with patterns of seawater clouds and dragons. The pattern was undulating, and it was smooth in his hands. It was just the size of a man's palm, so it was very suitable for playing with.

"This is Canaan incense, right? It took a lot of effort to carve such a complicated pattern on such a hard wood." Yu Xumo played with it a little fondly. He was also used to seeing good things, but he didn't know Where did Lai Fang get this thing, even if he gave it to He, it shouldn't look contemptuous.

Lai Fang didn't expect that Yu Suma could tell the name of the wood just by looking at it. Then he thought, there are many kinds of trees in this place, and the resources are rich. It's not surprising that the people here are familiar with wood. He was relieved and said "Yeah, it took a lot of work, and I haven't done it for a long time." In her previous life, she only liked and persisted in this hobby. The rest of her skills can't be called hobbies, but can only be said to be influenced by her brother and father. Just come out.

Yu Xumo was taken aback, and said, "You carved this yourself?"

"Yeah, you guys keep eyes for me, can I give this thing to the crane?"

"Okay, no problem, this workmanship, and Miss, you want to do it yourself, absolutely." A Yuanyuan opened her eyes and clapped her hands, "Miss, I didn't know you would do it!"

"Hehe, if you are poor, you want to change." Lai Fang laughed at himself. He had never seen anything before, and he was short of something. Besides, the two of them hit each other well. That's why he thought of carving something for him. It was also a gift of friendship. . "Come on, let me tell you, there is still a mechanism here." From Suma's hand, he took the wood carving, pulled the red ropes at both ends and pulled it, the wood carving actually separated, because there were carvings to cover up, no one noticed This is actually a box, one inch wide and high, and it can hold a lot of things.It turned out that the hanging red rope ran from the beginning to the end.

"This, this is really, amazing workmanship." Yu Xumo said in shock. "Hehe, this is a spice box, bring some incense or something with you." Lai Fang would think of making this thing. First, she had seen similar things and made her think out of thin air. She really didn't have the artistic talent. Furthermore, the people here like to smoke incense, the quilt is smoked, and the clothes are also smoked, hey.

A Yuan also looked at it, and said with a smile, "Master Mei, present this thing up, and when you explain it to this small institution, ask Mr. He to send everyone around you away." Lai Fang didn't know why she said this, everyone was from At this moment, Yu Xuma will see through.There are so many articles that can be made in this square inch, and it can be worn close to the body, but most people don't know that it is hollow, so what can't be put in it?He nodded solemnly, and then looked at Yuan, who was just smiling happily.

"What is this knot?" A Yuan pointed to the Chinese knot on the tassel again, Lai Fang opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything, "It's just an auspicious wishful knot, so it shouldn't be a taboo." A Yuan shook her head, "It's very auspicious." , I just asked because it looked good." Lai Fang only knew how to weave this kind of knot, so he made it up.

Yu Xumo listened, and said solemnly, "I will definitely present the gift well, and I will live up to the trust." Lai Fang thought it was not a big deal, why both of them were so solemn, Ah Yuan has always been more proficient in human relations than her, and so is Yu Xumo People in this era should not be far behind. "Yuan, why don't you accompany Mei for a walk."

"Yes, I will definitely bring back Master Mei with all beard and tail." After saying that, Ah Yuan went to pick out clothes for Yu Xumo again, without any embarrassment.Lai Fang saw that there was nothing wrong with her, so he turned and went back to the second floor, and then went to look at the genealogy of the daimyo he was keen on recently.

Lai Fang was fascinated by reading the book, but this simple genealogy chart has not simple connotations, such as when and who became the lord, who are the relatives, and the succession.From point to point, point by point, in Lai Fang's mind, a dense network of interpersonal relationships is connected. She doesn't like to spend too much energy on interpersonal relationships, but she is very interested in this kind of family tree of.Looking into it, the time naturally became blurred, and when Ah Yuan called her downstairs, Lai Fang only felt that a while had passed.

"Miss, miss, look." Ah Yuan excitedly pointed at the object Yu Xumo was holding, his eyes sparkling.Yu Xumo was holding a cloth cover, and he could tell it was a samurai sword just by its shape.Yu Xumo pursed his lips and handed it to Lai Fang, who took it and took off the cloth cover. It turned out to be a samurai sword, three feet nine inches long, with a black sheath and a brown handle wrapped around it.Lai Fang turned around and drew his saber towards the void. With a bang, the saber came out of its sheath with a humming sound.The shape of the sword is no different from that of modern samurai swords, with a thin and straight blade, a sharp blade, and the overall simplicity of a cold weapon.

Lai Fang flicked the body of the knife with his fingers, and then slashed it a few times with both hands holding the handle, secretly praising it in his heart, it's a good knife!

"This knife is called 'Ju Zhengzong'. It was made by a famous teacher. If you are rich and powerful, you may not be able to get it. Miss, I can give you this knife. I am very impressed by Mr. Crane." Even if Ah Yuan does not practice martial arts, but Enthusiasm for weapons is high, as if a person is not necessarily good at driving, but everyone likes famous cars.Lai Fang waved it a few times, but didn't talk to Ah Yuan, but he was thinking in his heart that this knife fits perfectly in his hand, no matter the length of the handle or the length of the blade, it fits his hand very well.He seems to be proficient in this way, otherwise she would not have chosen such a suitable knife for herself. As for chance, she does not believe that there are so many chances in the world.It's just that the name reminded her of Japanese sake, and she wanted to laugh a little.

"What did he say?" Lai Fang put the knife back into its sheath, stroked the blade, and asked.Yu Sumo said, "Mr. Crane liked the gift you gave me very much, so I hung it on my waist on the spot. During the period, I repeatedly talked about your duty. Before I left, I also gave this sword as a gift, saying that you can't live without a Taidao .”

"Rotation?" Lai Fang asked about something he didn't know. Ah Yuan's round eyes flickered and said, "This is the rule established by the three generations of generals. The daimyo is in the territory for half a year, and the shogunate is on duty for half a year. You happen to be on this list. The second time was because you were newly married, and it was only delayed for three months. Thinking about it, in another month, you should leave."

Lai Fang looked at A Yuan, wondering, "Shouldn't I have been informed of this matter earlier?" A Yuan said indifferently, "What's the use of telling you, I should prepare for it. Besides, this duty has already It has been practiced for so many years, and the supporting facilities are complete, and there is no need to bring a lot of things on the road, and there are post stations along the way. Besides, let me tell you, what else can you clean up and explain?" Lai Fang thought about it, and swallowed the question go back.Ah Yuan asked doggedly, "Miss, why don't I go and get a shelf right now, and use it as a confession, it's much better than the wooden swords and bamboo swords you hang on the porch."

Seeing her love for this knife, Lai Fang joked, "You like it so much, and you can make plans for me so much, why don't you just go to the warehouse to get a shelf and come back to offer it, why do you come here to ask for advice?" Ah Yuan gave her a blank look. "You think I don't want to? It's not that Young Master Mei is following. He's also a half-master. He means to ask me to come back and ask you to make a decision. If I don't ask, it doesn't appear that I don't understand the rules." She spoke straightforwardly. She said it in front of Yu Xumo, who was once again shocked by her straightforwardness, and Lai Fang looked at Yu Xumo and nodded approvingly in his heart.

"Okay, since you like this knife so much, then this task is assigned to you." Lai Fang handed the knife to A Yuan, and A Yuan held the knife in both hands happily, "Go, take this knife to the warehouse."

"Okay! Take it to the warehouse to find a suitable shelf? I don't need this one, I will choose it myself, and I won't insult this knife."

"Take it to the warehouse and store it."

"Okay, hey? What? Save it?!" A Yuan was about to turn around joyfully, and glared at Lai Fang, "I heard that right, right? You want to save this knife? Then what do you bring on the way to the shift? What do you bring when you are on business?" Ah Yuan was very angry, and the young lady was too clueless and careless.

Lai Fang was not angry either, "If you are told to go, then go, if not, I will go by myself."

"Then what saber do you bring on the road?"

"Bamboo swords and wooden knives are fine." Lai Fang threw back the words she had just mocked him, without blushing or panting.

A Yuan stomped her feet, "Miss, you are really, hmph" but she turned around and left with the knife in her arms.

Lai Fang looked at Ah Yuan's angry back, and smiled in a good mood. It was rare for Ah Yuan, who was so angry to be so calm, to feel a sense of accomplishment.

"Miss did this, let Mr. He know about it, it will inevitably be a bit of a disappointment." Yu Xumo didn't know what Lai Fang was thinking, although he also found it difficult to deal with this gift when he received it, but he didn't expect Lai Fang to be so direct .

Knowing that he was thinking too much, Lai Fang explained, "If you give me something, it will naturally be mine. How I dispose of it is up to me. If he gives it sincerely, it has nothing to do with him; if he doesn't Sincerely, then I don't have to care about his feelings." After hearing her words, Yu Xumo felt his eyes brighten up, and looked at Lai Fang, she was really not as good at dealing with people as she seemed.The combination of several occasional events made him feel that he had a glimpse of Lai Fang's way of handling things, that she was a person with great insights and calculations.

Seeing that Yu Suma didn't say anything anymore, Lai Fang didn't think deeply about whether he understood or didn't understand. Anyway, he did things by himself and didn't ask everyone to understand, as long as he had a clear conscience.
