"Which thing?" Xia Yan was still thinking about it, and asked casually, was it the fact that I used the birthday gift you gave me, or the fact that I attacked my breasts
"You..." Yao Min was so angry that she lifted her foot and stomped heavily on the instep of this fellow. Fortunately, she knew how to step on it with the sole of her foot, otherwise she would have broken Xia Yan's foot if she stepped on it with the heel.
Xia Yan jumped up and cried out in pain, and looked down at the back of her hand. Fortunately, she was only scratched and did not bleed. It's also fortunate that Yao Min is a doctor and can't have long nails, otherwise it would be normal to dig five blood grooves.
"Xiao Min, don't bully Xiao Yan!" Tall things were piled up on half of the workbench, blocking Yao Shigu's sight. He didn't see Yao Min being hit in the chest, but only heard Xia Yan's cry of pain. The granddaughter's temper can't be understood very well, and it's probably Xia Yan who suffered.
"I..." Yao Min really wanted to say that someone took advantage of your granddaughter, but he couldn't say it.
"Grandpa, did he ruin the mutton fat jade and Tian Huangshi I gave you?" Yao Min asked.
"You child, how do you talk? What do you mean by ruining? Xiao Yan is the head of our swordsmanship. No matter how expensive or the best materials, he can use the sword at will. No one can say anything!" Yao Shigu said.
"It's one thing to be qualified to use it, but if it's not engraved well, it's a waste of things!" Yao Min said dissatisfied.
"Who says Xiao Yan can't carve well?" Yao Shigu asked back with a frown.
"Didn't he carve three things in just one morning? Among them are jadeite and mutton jade. Grandpa, tell me, can you carve good things in such a short time?" Yao Min pointed at Xia Yan angrily and said .
"This... Although I don't believe it, Xiao Yan really did it!" Yao Shigu rationally agrees with his granddaughter's words, but the facts in front of him make him believe in the existence of miracles.
"Grandpa, you said he did it? What does that mean?" Yao Min asked.
"It means that Xiao Yan did carve three things in only three hours, and each of them is of the highest standard!" Yao Shigu's eyes showed a look of fanaticism, and he almost burst into flames. come the same.
"Excellent product?" Yao Min didn't believe it.
"That's right, each piece can represent the highest level of our swordsmanship!" Yao Shigu said firmly.
"Uncle Master looks at me so highly!" Xia Yan was very proud, but she still had to be modest.
"No wonder you are only 18 years old, senior brother passed the Amorous Knife to you!" Yao Shigu looked at Xia Yan as if looking at a peerless treasure.
"Is he really that good?" Both Yao Min and Yao Ting were shocked by his grandpa's unsparing words of praise. Although grandpa kept saying that his craftsmanship was not perfect, his vision for carving a piece was beyond anyone's control. No, if anyone's work is praised as "acceptable" by him, his value will skyrocket.
As long as a few top-notch comments are spread, it will be difficult for Xia Yan not to be famous!
"Come and see!" Yao Shigu carefully handed the two jade carvings to the two granddaughters respectively.
What Yao Min got was a small and exquisite jade toad, which was carved out of suet jade. As soon as she got the jade toad, the smoother texture than cheese made her feel refreshed, and she was reluctant to let it go. When she took a closer look at Yuchan for the first time, she immediately believed her grandfather's evaluation.
Even a layman can see the extraordinaryness of this jade toad at a glance, which is the instinctive love of human beings for beautiful things.
"It turns out that he really didn't perfunctory, didn't waste materials! He is a real genius!" Yao Min's beautiful eyes flashed, and his hatred for Xia Yan was reduced by most. This guy is really capable!
What Yao Ting got was the Jade Buddha that Xia Yan was going to give to Liu Xueer. She had heard Xia Yan explain the characteristics of the Yidao style to Jiang Wenchuan, and compared with the jade Buddha imitating the Yidao style just now, and then looked at the jade Buddha in her hand. Buddha, the gap between the two can be described as worlds apart.
"It's so beautiful, it would be great if it was given to me!" Yao Ting sneaked a glance at Xia Yan, with a blush on her face, envious of Xia Yan's "female friend" in her heart.
In Yao Shigu's hand, he held a Tian Huangshi seal. On the five sides of the seal are engraved five dragons with open teeth and claws, and four tadpole-like characters are engraved on the bottom.
"Grandpa, what's this character?" Yao Ting asked curiously, she still couldn't recognize the reversed seal characters.
Yao Shigu dipped the seal in cinnabar ink pad, pressed it heavily on the rice paper, leaving a bright red mark.
"Dragon in the Abyss!" Yao Min read out.
"Xiao Yan, you have also worked hard on calligraphy, right?" Yao Shigu asked with a smile while stroking his beard.
"Master forces me to practice calligraphy every day!" Xia Yan replied with a bitter face.
"Hahaha!" Yao Shigu laughed loudly.
After reading the three little things, the Yao sisters no longer doubted Xia Yan's accomplishments in carving. But how to carve these few things in just three hours is still a difficult mystery.
"Those machines!" Yao Ting exclaimed suddenly, "They haven't been started at all!"
Yao Min and Yao Shigu hurriedly checked the machines, and they found that none of them had been turned on. The three of them looked at Xia Yan as if they were looking at a monster!
"Could it be that you polished it by hand? It's impossible, it's simply impossible!" Yao Min exclaimed in shock.
"Sister Min, you already have something in your hand!" Xia Yan pointed to the jade toad in her hand.
"This... this... how on earth did you do it?" Yao Min remembered that others have already done it, and nothing is impossible.
"Xiao Min, this is not what you should ask!" Yao Shigu shouted before Xia Yan could answer.
"Grandpa, you... Forget it, it's another one-shot secret technique, I don't bother to know!" Yao Min was depressed.
"Xia Yan, here it is!" Yao Ting reluctantly handed the Jade Buddha to Xia Yan, and then cast her eyes on the Tianhuangshi seal in Yao Shigu's hand, obviously wanting it very much.
"Xiao Ting, this seal of Qianlong Zaiyuan is not suitable for girls!" Yao Shigu said flatteringly to his little granddaughter.
"Hmph, stingy!" Yao Ting pouted and hummed angrily.
"This jade toad belongs to me, grandpa!" Yao Min held Yuchan tightly with a smile on his face, as if he was afraid of being snatched away by his grandfather and sister.
"These two things are necessary, Xia Yan also wants to earn some money through craftsmanship
Chapter 69 Manual polishing
Use it, Xiao Min, you can't take it for yourself! " Yao Shigu said.
"I'll buy it!" Yao Min said without hesitation, "Xia Yan, how much do you want?"
"Yes, Xiao Yan can't be made to work for nothing, and the money that should be paid must be given!" Yao Shigu nodded in agreement.
"No, Uncle Min, Sister Min, you can keep it if you like it, how dare I ask you for money!" Xia Yan shook her head hastily, this money cannot be accepted, "If Master knows that I have taken your money, he insists on calling Break my leg!"
After some refusal, Xia Yan insisted on not wanting money, and the grandparents of the Yao family had no choice but to give up. Yao Min's bad feelings finally dissipated completely, and he began to cry "Xiao Yan" and "Xiao Yan" shortly.
"Xiao Yan, both grandpa and sister have your engravings, but I don't have any!" Yao Ting grabbed Xia Yan's arm like a begging cat.
"I'll carve another one for you!" Xia Yan was pulled by a soft hand, and what she saw in her eyes was Yao Ting's beautiful face, so there was no reason not to agree.
