Seeking Happiness Chapter 27: Carving Rabbit


     When Shu Huan got the engraving tools quietly sent by Dye Mo, the sky was faintly dark.

   is a birthday gift. Naturally, you cannot let the recipient know in advance, so that there will be unexpected surprises. Therefore, Shu Huan hid the set of carving tools and Yingge Luqinan tightly, and if nothing had happened, they would eat with Gu Xiran. After the meal, I found an excuse to go out for a walk after eating too much, and then dragged the good time and beautiful scenery to the garden.

   Aunt Yun chased it out, handed her a small white jade box not much bigger than the thumb lid, and smiled slightly: "The second master asked me to send it out. The head contains peppermint cream. If you get bitten by a mosquito, Wipe it a little and it won’t be itchy."

   said, and gave her a small porcelain bottle: "If the mistress doesn't like the mint smell, there is also Elsholtzia liquid, which can keep away mosquitoes."

   Shu Huan thanked him, took it, and when she turned to leave, Aunt Yun said again: "The second master said, let the mistress not go too far, come back earlier."

   "I got it." After Shu Huan agreed, he let Liangchen light up the lantern and went out.

   If there is no shining bright moon and stars, then the ancient night is really black, and you can't see the five fingers.

   The sky just changed tonight, the moonlight was covered by the clouds, the lantern in Liangchen’s hand was not too far away, and the wind was blowing, the light and shadows were shaking, and the leaves were still rustling. In this case, go In the empty, cold garden, it's a bit of an artistic conception in the studio.

  The beautiful scenery is a little courageous, and a little unbearable: "Mistress, this strange outsider is scary, or let's go back, can't we just take a walk in the yard?"

   Shuhuan smiled: "If you are afraid, go back first."

   Jingjing also carried a lantern in her hand. It’s okay to return alone, but she looked back and saw that the path was already hidden in the boundless darkness. She felt terrified. How dare to go back alone, she had to tremble. : "I...I'll follow you..."

   Shu Huan came out to find a place to carve that piece of Yingge Green Phoebe. It didn’t take much to go, and when I arrived at the pavilion I visited last time, I sat down on the pavilion and asked the two maids to put the lanterns away. When she reached the top of the stone table, she took out Yingge Lu Qinan and looked at it carefully.

  On the outside, this Qinan is no different from ordinary dry trees, but when it is carved with a knife, you can see that the oily layer inside is dark green and feels softer.

Materials like    may be difficult to carve delicate things. If you want to make incense sticks, it will take a lot of work to polish! Shu Huan looked at it for a long time, but suddenly thought——

   Don’t sculpt too finely, just sculpt a rough outline, so that it is easy to cut and does not waste too much material.

   just thinking about it, the beauty couldn’t help but ask from the side: "Mr. Granny, what is this? It looks like a piece of rotten wood, but I didn’t think it would smell good."

   Shu Huan couldn't help but laugh, in this fragrance house, there is finally someone as ignorant as her!

   hasn't answered yet, I listened to Liangchen saying on the side: "This is Qi Nanxiang, right? I have seen bracelets with this carving from my wife, but it's not so sweet."

   Shu Huan nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Do you know the zodiac of the second master?"

   Beautiful scenery shook his head, Liang Chen thought for a while and said: "The second master seems to belong to a rabbit."

   rabbit? !

   is really unexpected, she thinks Gu Xiran should be a fox!

  The rabbit is a rabbit, but there is a rabbit shape that is easy to carve.

   Shu Huan smiled slyly and took the knife to carve.

   was watching the beautiful scenery, and curiously asked: "Is this a birthday gift for the second master?"

   Shu Huan hadn't carved anything for a long time, and was a bit hand-skilled. At this moment, she didn't dare to be distracted.

   The two maids were trained since entering the mansion. Knowing something, the host said impatiently that they would not be able to ask too much, so they stayed by the side and watched her caring quietly.

   Because it doesn't need to be carved too finely, this Yingge Luqinan is so soft that it can be cut very softly. When the carving is not long, the outline of a fat-headed rabbit is figured out.

  The more Shu Huan was sculpted, the more funny she felt in her heart, and she gradually flew like a knife.

   I don’t know how long the time has passed, anyway, when she came back to her senses, a rogue rabbit with squinted eyes, round nose and short pouting tail came into her hands.

   She raised her eyes. Liangchen, who was sitting across from her, looked a little weird, so she picked up the rogue rabbit and shook it, "Isn't it pretty?"

   Liangchen pursed his mouth: "It looks good, but the appearance of this rabbit seems to be a little bit awkward..."

  The beautiful scenery is still childlike, and he leaned over to take a closer look, and smiled happily: "I think this rabbit is very fat and fat, but I don't know whether Erye likes it or not."

   is done carving, even if it is not good, there is no way! But if people of later generations knew that she used such a precious Yingge Lvqinan to carve a rogue rabbit, I am afraid that she would be scolded as a violent thing!

   Shu Huan was half emotional, half excited after the prank, holding the rogue rabbit and watching it repeatedly, and finally drilled a small hole in the back of the rabbit's head, thinking about going back and wiping it with a cloth, and then using a silk rope String it up and you should be done.

   It’s also interesting to think about it. I originally wanted to engrave a seal and incense string. I didn’t expect to carve a waist pendant in the end. I just didn’t know such an alternative waist pendant. Gu Xiran would not wear it, but then again, this Things are really good to carve. It seems that if you are idle in the future, you can find a few pieces of rotten wood or carrots to carve and play!

   Liangchen pointed to the carved scraps on the stone table, and said a little pity: "Aren't these left out?"

   "These—" Shu Huan stretched out her hand to gather the scraps together, clumping them together, but she didn't expect to be able to pinch them together like soap, and put them in her purse. : "Keep it, it's always useful."

   At this point, a cool breeze came over, and she sneezed, feeling a bit cold, and hurriedly asked: "How long have we been out?"

  Good time thought for a while: "There are always two hours."

   Two hours!

   That is four hours!

   It will be late at night!

   Shu Huan said, "Not good~ IndoMTL.com~ I hurriedly picked up the things, held the rogue rabbit in my hand, grabbed the lantern and ran back, eager to chase the beautiful scenery behind: "Mr. , You slow down, don't run too fast and fall! "

   ran back to Shengmei Pavilion in one breath. When she saw the light in Gu Xiran's room was still on, she felt more and more uncomfortable, and quickly sent the two maids to sleep. She sneaked into the study and found a place to carve. The tool and the Qi Nan hooligan rabbit hid, then they took care of their clothes, swept their hair, and pretended to raise the curtain of the bedroom as if nothing had happened--

   With this curtain, she first sniffed a delicate sweet fragrance that made her eyes soft, and then she saw Aunt Yun, with her black hair drooping, sitting on the edge of the bed in a semi-transparent dress. The candle lit by the bedside was sewing, and Gu Xiran was holding a book in his hand, lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and seeing his steady breathing, he was obviously asleep.

   The situation in front of her was charming and warm, obviously beyond Shu Huan’s expectations. She had thought about coming back late, and probably saw Gu Xiran’s stinky face...

   In this daze, she hadn’t decided whether to walk in or quit. Aunt Yun heard the movement behind her, she hurriedly stood up, smiled at her, and whispered: "The second grandma is back? Second master. I can’t wait, I’ve already gone to bed. The stove in the small tea house warms the soup for you. If you drink it, I’ll go and serve it."

   Shu Huan shook his head: "It's late, don't drink anymore, go and rest."

   Aunt Yun responded, picked up her needlework, and quietly retired.

   Under the candlelight, Shu Huan looked at the swaying bamboo curtain in front of him, then turned to look at the sleeping Gu Xiran, and sighed inwardly. It seemed that she really wanted to vacate that room in the East Chamber, or she didn't even have a place to escape from such embarrassing things!
