Lin Yunyan curled her lips.
Xu Jian gestured and marked the strap, then loosened it and took a thin awl to drill holes.
For a moment, no one spoke.
Lin Yunyan retracted her arm and rubbed her right wrist back and forth with her left hand, finally getting rid of the numb feeling.
Then, she leaned forward slightly and watched Xu Jian doing things.
The awl penetrated the wristband, leaving a hole.
After polishing the hole to a suitable size, Xu Jian pressed metal buttons on both sides and rubbed his fingers on both sides to ensure that there was no unevenness or smoothness that would prick his hand before it was considered a pass.
Then, he made some false adjustments, tied them up, and then loosened them. After trying this several times and making sure that it was easy to put on and take off, Xu Jian raised his head.
Without Xu Jian opening her mouth, Lin Yunyan stretched out her arm.
The quiver was long, so she pulled her sleeves up a little, so that almost the entire forearm was exposed.
Well-behaved and very cooperative.
This time, Xu Jian's movements were not so light.
The copper quiver was chilly, and Lin Yunyan resisted moving. However, the fine fuzz on her skin was beyond her control, causing them to stand up in response to the coldness.
Thread the wristband through the buckle, tighten it to the hole, and wear it snugly.
Xu Jian clasped Lin Yunyan's wrist with one hand, adjusted the quiver with the other, and said: "The butterfly buckle is here. It is no different in other ways. You can try it."
After saying that, Xu Jian let go of his hand.
Lin Yunyan stood up and moved her arms slightly.
The quiver was hidden in her sleeve without showing any signs of it. When the coldness subsided, she took out a thin arrow.
The first time she cooperated with the new Xiujian, Lin Yunyan was not anxious.
She put the thin arrow into the quiver from the front, flipped the butterfly clasp, and shot it in the direction of the target on the wall.
Whoosh.
The thin arrow flew out and hit the target.
After that, Lin Yunyan got used to it and shot each arrow faster than the other. She circled the thin arrow around the bullseye and shot another circle.
After trying it out, she took the thin arrow back and put it into her quiver.
Seeing that she was using it smoothly, Xu Jian said, "The quiver has a row of buttons on it. Watch and wear it."
Lin Yunyan had experience. She tied the quiver around her waist and adjusted the position and buttons according to the clothes. In summer, the clothes are thin, so they should be buttoned tighter and hidden more tightly. In winter, there are many clothes. It is easy to hide, but you must not neglect the convenience.
Picking up the quiver, Lin Yunyan pointed at the screen inside.
Xu Jian laughed.
I agreed, but with a bit of teasing.
Lin Yunyan glared at Xu Jian and turned around to go behind the screen.
She knew what Xu Jian was laughing at.
There was no one else in the study. When they were in trouble, they didn't have to be so particular about their behavior.
But can it be the same now as before?
Not even a couple.
She stayed away, justifiably.
Xu Jian was still sitting on the chair, with thick pillows behind him, and he leaned back comfortably.
He had good ears, so he could hear the sound of people putting on quivers on the other side of the screen. He didn't look at anything inappropriate, and he didn't even glance towards that side.
After taking a sip of tea, Xu Jian began to pack the tools on the desk.
In the box, there is also a strap, which was the wrist strap that the quiver originally came with.
Xu Jian took it out and put it aside.
The material has good toughness, but is a bit thick. It's okay if he uses it himself, but if he wears it for Lin Yunyan, he still has to change it.
After all, the little princess has tender skin and tender flesh.
Lin Yunyan put it on and came out from behind the screen.
Aiming at the target, she tried to shoot three more arrows from a distance. Although it was a single-shot quiver, she used it smoothly, and the connection between arrows was smooth.
She remembered that she had discussed it with Xu Jian when she first learned how to use Xiu Jian.
Others use sleeve arrows, but they are just hidden in the sleeves and not fixed. After inserting the thin arrow, the quiver is shallowly drawn out, and the wrist is slightly buckled, and it can be operated with one hand. Why should she practice fixing it.
Xu Jian said it very honestly.
That kind is mostly people with outstanding martial arts who rush to plot.
When fighting, one hand uses a serious weapon and the other hand secretly uses a concealed weapon. It is easy for the opponent to take advantage of him without even checking.
Lin Yunyan was different. She used sleeve arrows for daily self-defense. They were fixed on her wrists so that they would not affect her movements and prevent them from accidentally slipping from her sleeves.
And she didn't seem to have any martial arts skills. Even if she loaded an arrow with her left hand and clasped the butterfly buckle with her left hand, as long as she raised her right hand to aim fast enough, the unsuspecting enemy would not be able to react.
Facts have proved that what Xu Jian said is quite reasonable.
In the past, when she used her sleeve arrows, she could catch them by surprise.
Lin Yunyan took back the three arrows, put them into the quiver, and then sat down on the chair.
Xu Jian looked at Lin Yunyan's waist, which was well hidden. If he hadn't known that he was wearing a quiver, he would have hardly been able to tell.
Looking at Lin Yunyan again, she bit into a piece of bean paste cake and drank from the teacup. Then she reached for the teapot and raised her arms to add tea to the two of them.
Xu Jian watched her series of movements, keeping her eyes on the cuffs, and said, "Nothing was revealed."
After trying this, they were sure it was flawless, so they both felt relieved.
Lin Yunyan drank another cup of tea slowly and asked, "Why did you think of letting me wear this?"
In the capital today, the Empress Dowager is still there, as is Chengyi's Mansion. She is still the Princess of Ning'an, and few people would knock her on the head or do evil things to her.
After Lin Yunyan asked, she wanted to turn around and asked again with a smile: "Is Liu Xun so vicious?"
Xu Jian said: "Be prepared."
"Then I have to aim better and not aim at the life gate," Lin Yunyan said. "It would be a pity if I died. Make the best use of what you have."
Xu Jian was obviously amused by "making the best use of everything". He raised his eyebrows and added a smile to his lips: "Who did you learn from when you caught a sheep and plucked it hard?"
Lin Yunyan glanced at Xu Jian.
The meaning in his eyes is quite clear.
When it comes to throwing bricks to attract jade, killing two birds with one stone, and getting the benefits you have to eat one bite to make you fat. Compared with Xu Jian, she is really just a little witch.
Last time, Xu Jian went to the imperial study room to add fuel to the fire when Su Ke was in trouble, but he also hid his next move.
If you want to recruit people with satisfactory results, Liu Xun is a chess piece that can be used.
Chess pieces that are satisfying and proactive are hard to find, so they can't be used easily.
Xu Jian laughed again, took Lin Yunyan's look as a compliment, and handed the empty box to her.
"Keep it tight," he said. "If I know that I asked you to wear sleeve arrows, I'm afraid you won't accept my posts next time."
Lin Yunyan smiled with her eyes bent.
If his father knew about it, he would probably not look down upon Xu Jian.
Hidden arrows are used for self-defense, but if used incorrectly, they may injure themselves.
In the eyes of her father, she is a little girl who has never practiced martial arts. Wearing this thing is too dangerous.
"Speaking of which," Lin Yunyan said smoothly, "I have never tried the wristband size before."
Xu Jian was slightly startled, her voice stuck in her throat, and she spoke after a while: "Princess, how old are you this year?"
Lin Yunyan blinked, and her instinct was that what followed was not a good word.
As expected, Xu Jian said again: "Mother Wang said, I was like a duck three years ago. Now you are three years behind, are you still taller?"
Lin Yunyan:......
Abusing a scumbag is not as important as Xu Jian teasing the little princess, right?
Don't rush, just take it step by step.
