Chapter 100 Unlocking the Wooden Lock and Touching the Heart Lock

It was the original trial period again. Fu Ruqing sat at the desk in the study and checked the affairs summarized by Chengzhou. He was a little tired, and the anticipation that had become a habit surfaced again, but this thought only stayed for a moment, and then remembered that the trial was over. A faint sense of disappointment replaced the original expectation, making her even more unable to concentrate, and she spent twice as long on the contents that she usually finished quickly, but she didn't read as much.

Ding Qiyu went out to deliver the rice sieving machine to the Daguchang in the west of the city. It was a long journey, and he gave a detailed explanation to the workers in the valley. It was already evening when he came out of the valley.Only then did Ding Qiyu remember that the new thing he had made hadn't been sent to the little girl, so he hurried back to Qingliu Garden. It was almost dark, so he went to the west courtyard to get something and ran to Fu Ruqing's Fumengju, just in time Come out from the gate of the courtyard, and prepare to take the silver millet for the young lady.

Panting, Ding Qiyu stepped forward and greeted Yinsu: "Hoo, Yinsu, Miss, is Missy in the study?"

Seeing that Ding Qiyu was holding a small cloth bag in his arms, Yinsu nodded and said, "Master Ding, the lady is inside, you can knock on the door and go in."

"Oh, good! Thank you!" It was not early, and although the test was over, Ding Qiyu still didn't want to miss the time, so he was a little anxious. He breathed chaotically because of running all the way.

"Who?" Fu Ruqing was a little puzzled, Yinsu wouldn't come back so soon, let alone knock on the door without saying a word, who would come looking for him at this time?

"Miss, it's me, Ding Qiyu." Ding Qiyu's panting voice came from outside the door.

Why is she here?Fu Ruqing was even more puzzled, but together with this doubt, there was also the expectation that had been suppressed by her and had become a habit. She calmed down the emotions that started to turmoil, and said calmly: "Come in."

Ding Qiyu opened the door and walked in. Today's mood is completely different from before. Before that, he was completely nervous and gritted his teeth. Today, he is very relaxed and even guessing badly. The young lady is facing today's stuff. , what kind of reaction will there be?

Fu Ruqing had already seen what she was holding in her hands, and the anticipation in her heart had settled down, turning into a glimmer of joy, but she asked on her face, "Are you here for something?"

Ding Qiyu knew that she was asking the truth, so he didn't expose it. He nodded according to her intention, and said with a smile: "Well, it's something, it's very, very important~" He said and put the cloth bag in his arms directly on Fu Ruqing's table , "Miss, open it and have a look."

Ding Qiyu's completely different "sneering attitude" today made Fu Ruqing a little uncomfortable, but he couldn't overcome the strong curiosity in his heart, so he simply let Ding Qiyu succeed once, and reached out to open the small cloth bag she brought.

The cloth wrapped in cloth is a strangely shaped wooden object, which is composed of many small long strips of wood, presenting a spatially symmetrical shape that looks like a square but not a square, or a circle but not a circle. Small wooden blocks, if you bite me, I will lock it. You, one by one, are combined without flaws to form a whole.

Ding Qiyu couldn't leave Fu Ruqing's eyes for a moment, this time he finally didn't miss the puzzled look in her eyes, and introduced with a smile: "Miss, this thing is called 'Bagua Lock'. Don't think it is an inseparable whole now. , No matter how much you beat it, it won’t come apart. In fact, it is made of twelve wooden strips connected by mortise and tenon, without using a single nail. The eldest lady is very smart, you might as well try to take it apart~”

Hearing this, Fu Ruqing picked up the gossip lock made by Ding Qiyu with one hand and turned it over to look at it. With the other hand, he randomly selected a piece of wood and tried it out gently. As Ding Qiyu said, the mortise and tenon structure between the wooden sticks was completely integrated. Once the correct solution is found, it cannot be forcibly disassembled.

When Ding Qiyu saw that she failed in the first try, his bad intentions appeared, he casually lifted a chair beside him and sat down opposite the eldest lady, and was about to watch how she disassembled it, and said very annoyingly: "Don't worry, this itself is not good. It's too easy, hehe." On the surface, they were comforting words, but in fact they were secretly laughing, deliberately sitting opposite her, just to put some pressure on her.

The first time Fu Ruqing came into contact with this novelty, he didn't have a clue. There was a big guy who wanted to beat him sitting in front of him and staring at him, hoping that he couldn't figure it out, and a trace of urgency arose in his heart.But she is Fu Ruqing after all, and suppressing emotions is probably what she is best at.She can deal with major business problems calmly, so how can she let the guy in front of her succeed?Thinking like this, she cut off the nervousness that had just sprouted, and turned it into an obvious wave of energy, carefully thinking about how to dismantle the thing in her hand.

It's a pity that the gossip lock made by Ding Qiyu is too exquisite. If you don't have ingenious experience, it will be very difficult for someone who disassembles it for the first time to find out how to disassemble it in a short time.Fu Ruqing, however, has an unyielding temperament. After taking it apart for a long time, she didn't take it off, which made her feel a rare sense of frustration.

The expected effect has been achieved, Ding Qiyu is still very compassionate after all, although Miss Fu has "played" her so many times, but she still can't bear to continue to worry about such an indifferent Yiren, so she thought about it, and it seemed like it was unintentional He reminded: "Everyone has many sides. Sometimes when you look at a person, you can't just look at her side. Maybe a certain side of her is completely different from usual." "Just like the eldest lady, she can also be a little girl~"

Hearing the first half of her sentence, Fu Ruqing knew that this person wanted to remind himself, and the little gratitude he had just felt for her was immediately extinguished by the second half of her sentence.Another little girl?From my birth to now, no one has ever called me a little girl!Fu Ruqing worked hard to calm down the anger in his heart for a moment, and was going to untie the small piece of broken wood in his hand first, and then settle accounts with the big guy in front of him.She carefully observed several sides of the gossip lock, and sure enough, she found that the two wooden strips on one side were occluded in the opposite direction to the other sides.Fu Ruqing stretched out his fingers to hold the center of the two wooden strips bitten into a cross shape, and turned slightly in the opposite direction of the bite, and the two wooden strips interlocked together in a cross shape were separated from the whole very easily.

"Hey! Miss is indeed the lady, you opened the cross lock cylinder!" Unexpectedly, Miss Fu removed the "cross lock cylinder" so quickly, Ding Qiyu admired sincerely. Although she reminded, but It is very obscure, and the difference between the "cross lock cylinder" and other surfaces is not so easy to observe. After hearing the prompt, Fu Ruqing found the cross lock cylinder so quickly, which shows her intelligence.

Once the cross lock cylinder was undone, the remaining part did not bother Fu Ruqing anymore, she completely dismantled Ding Qiyu's Bagua lock into twelve wooden strips in a few strokes.Finally, when the two pieces of wood were separated, Fu Ruqing finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a little bit of happiness in her heart. She had never felt this way before after negotiating a big business deal. She never thought that dismantling such a small wooden lock would make her happy. She has a sense of accomplishment.Fu Ruqing subconsciously pushed the neatly arranged twelve wooden sticks in front of Ding Qiyu, and said, "It's done."

The little jump between her brows and eyes that she hadn't had time to hide hit the soft spot in Ding Qiyu's heart. She really was a little girl. Ding Qiyu folded his hands, nodded and said, "Well, it's not easy to take it out so quickly for the first time." After giving the praise, the topic changed again, "But, the dismantling is solved, can Missy put it back to the way it was just now?"

Not missing the joy in Fu Ruqing's eyes instantly froze, Ding Qiyu smiled to himself, and said softly, "You've just met, it's not easy to pretend to be alone, I'll pretend to be with you." This dispelled Fu Ruqing's little nervousness.

It was inconvenient to sit, so Ding Qiyu pointed to Fu Ruqing's side and asked, "Can I sit there? It's more convenient."

After obtaining consent, Ding Qiyu moved the chair to sit beside Fu Ruqing, and the somewhat clear and cold fragrance seemed to linger in his nostrils.Ding Qiyu picked up a piece of wood and stood it up, guiding the people around him step by step to reinstall the gossip lock.

The study was very quiet, and there was a sentence or two of Ding Qiyu's explanation and Fu Ruqing's occasional small questions from time to time.The two played vigorously, Ding Qiyu assisted, and Miss Fu worked together on the lock, and the Bagua lock that had been disassembled into small wooden strips was pieced together bit by bit to form a whole.

Yinsu knocked on the door and came in, seeing such a harmonious scene.I was a little surprised that the lady was so defenseless against a man, but at the same time, I recalled the changes in the lady these days. Ever since Mr. Ding came to Qingliu Garden and brought so many novelties, the lady seemed to have found interest, and the expression on her face also changed. There are many more vivid expressions, which is the first time in more than ten years.Is it possible that Mr. Ding and his novelty are the key to untie the knot in Miss's heart?

The two of them who were so focused had no intention of talking to Yinsu, and when Yinsu added Ningshen incense to the small censer, Ding Qiyu and the others completed the gossip lock.Ding Qiyu got up and returned the chair to the original place, and said: "How is it? It's quite interesting. There is more than one kind of gossip lock. In the future, I can make several more for you to see."

Do more?Does that mean she will still come here with gadgets from time to time?When Fu Ruqing heard her words, she couldn't help but have such expectations, but with her character, she couldn't ask.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ding Qiyu was about to say goodbye and leave.Before leaving, although he didn't know if Miss Fu would look forward to the gadgets he made, Ding Qiyu still said: "Miss, I think the test you put forward before can hone my ingenuity and skills, so, in the future I will still show the gadgets I made to Missy for your comments~" If she will look forward to her organ, then let her rest assured that this "test" is not over, if others do not, That's really a way to hone your skills.

Hearing this, Fu Ruqing was overjoyed again, but before he had time to say anything, the man changed his rhetoric and said with a smile: "Hehe, don't worry little girl, I will still give you to you in the future." You are being playful~" Ding Qiyu wanted to make people show some lively expressions, but she didn't realize that she had dug a hole for herself...
