princess come to my arms

Chapter 106

"Okay." After the pattern was transcribed, Li Weixi put down the ink pen in his hand and held the mahogany piece in his palm to watch.

Seeing her appearance, she was very satisfied with her design, A Jin looked away without leaving any trace: "Next, we will use this small saw to saw off the sapwood of peach wood."

A Jin picked up her own saw and shook it in front of Li Weixi, motioning for her to pick it up too.

After Li Weixi picked it up, A Jin warned: "Be careful when using this saw. The saw blade is sharp, and you will scratch your hands if you are not careful." He took out a pair of gloves and handed them to Li Weixi: "Put on the gloves, it's safer and easier to use."

Hearing this, Li Weixi took the gloves, nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Miss Ajin."

"Let me give you a demonstration first." A Jin put the peach wood on the small wooden table, the part to be cut protruded from the edge of the small wooden table, she picked up the saw with her right hand: "Just saw the rough outline first, It doesn’t have to be cut exactly to the pattern.”

When A Jin moved her hands, she looked very relaxed. The little saw looked like a well-trained soldier in her hands, and there was no deviation in which point to strike.

A triangular block of wood was sawed off and fell to the table.

"Try it." A Jin raised her head and looked at Miss Li, with a hint of uneasiness in her eyes.

Li Weixi is straightforward and courageous in her work. Although it is a skill she has never touched before, she is by no means a person who is afraid before she does it.She didn't feel much emotion in her heart, just like A Jin, she picked up the saw with her right hand and pressed the peach wood with her left hand. After fixing it, she pressed the saw blade against the edge of the peach wood.

She has chosen the line to cut, and she only needs to pull the handle of the saw.

Li Weixi thought everything would go smoothly, but as soon as he pulled the handle of the saw, the saw blade went astray, making several rough cuts on the edge of the peach wood.

How is this going?

Li Weixi's complexion changed, and she did not admit defeat, and tried again, firmly holding the peach wood chip with her left hand, and re-fixing the saw blade in the cutting position with her right hand.

Pulling the saw handle again, the saw blade jumped away again, and the strength in his hand was somehow useless, and Li Weixi raised his eyes and looked at A Jin with helpless eyes.

A Jin saw it, and naturally knew where the problem was.

She left her seat, walked behind Li Weixi, squatted down and took a horse stance.Her right hand was on top of Li Weixi's right hand, holding the saw handle together, and her left hand was also covering hers, holding the peach wood piece together, and her body embraced her from behind.

Ajin is taller than Li Weixi, and her arms are longer, so they don't feel any discomfort when hugged like this.

A Jin whispered in Li Weixi's ear: "If the saw will go off track, let's make a saw trough in this place first. When making the saw trough, just pull the saw blade lightly, without using too much force."

While A Jin was explaining, she used her hands to drive Li Weixi's right hand.Under the leadership of A Jin, the saw blade is very obedient, sawing when it says to saw, and stopping when it says to stop, and the speed is appropriate.

"When sawing backwards, use your arms instead of your wrists to exert force, otherwise you will not be able to stabilize."

Even through the thick gloves, Li Weixi could still feel the warmth of A Jin's palm and the softness of her against him.

Li Weixi couldn't help thinking of the moments when the two got along.In the old days, she often hugged herself like this.

The familiar feeling struck, and Li Weixi's heart throbbed, and his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

At the same time, she also felt another rapid heartbeat coming from behind her.

Is Ajin nervous?

"That's it, do you understand?" The sound of falling wooden blocks interrupted Li Weixi's thoughts. She bit her lip, lowered her eyebrows and eyes, and refocused her attention on the work in hand.

"Yes." She replied softly, "I'll try it myself."

A Jin let go of her hand, exhaled a long breath, and returned to her seat with a calm expression on her face.

Li Weixi cleared all the distracting thoughts in his mind, and tried again according to the method taught by A Jin, and it really succeeded.

Seeing that Ms. Li became more and more comfortable, Ajin's worries became much less.

The two have been tossing from afternoon to night.Because I got up too late and didn't have enough time, the wooden hairpin couldn't be finished.

Hungry and hungry bellies waved the flag to protest, the two stopped for the time being, and agreed to continue tomorrow.

"A Jin, A Jin—" When they went down to the attic, two shouts came from the rain.

A Jin recognized the source of the voice, and shook her hand towards the gate of the bamboo building: "Brother Ashin, I'm here."

"I've brought you the fruit wine that your sister-in-law Ashin has just brewed. Come down and get it." Ashin held a big umbrella and called at the door of A Jin's house.

"I'll be right there—" A Jin ran quickly, holding the hem of her skirt.

"The road is slippery in rainy days, don't run in such a hurry." Ashin couldn't help but reminded when he saw A Jin in a blue dress galloping towards him.

"I didn't hear the fruit wine brewed by Mrs. Ashin, I can't wait to drink it." Ajin replied with a big smile.

"Hurry up and take it. Drinking some fruit wine on a rainy day will also warm you up." Ashin handed the wine jar in his hand to Ajin.

A Jin took it, and carried the fruit wine jar firmly in her arms: "Thank you Brother Ashin, when the weather clears up, I will personally find Mrs. Ashin to thank you."

"You child, why are you polite, you take it, I'm leaving."

"Brother Ashin, go slowly." A Jin watched Ashin go away, then turned and returned to the bamboo building.

Ashin walked halfway, and suddenly raised his palm and patted his head. He remembered that his wife had told him something before going out, and he forgot to say it to Ajin.Ashin walked halfway, and suddenly raised his palm and patted his head. He remembered that his wife had told him something before going out, and he forgot to say it to Ajin.

The daughter-in-law said that the fruit wine had a bit of stamina this time, and told Ah Jin not to drink too much at one time, as it would easily get intoxicating.

Ah Xin looked back at the muddy road ahead, and thought to himself: Ah Jin is not addicted to alcohol on weekdays, so she definitely won't drink too much, so I don't need to worry about it.

After thinking about it, he was relieved and continued to walk towards home.

In this room, A Jin took the fruit wine sent by A Xin, and happily went to find Li Weixi.

The fruit wine made by Mrs. Ashin is famous far and wide, and she usually likes it the most. She also wants Miss Li to taste her favorite flavor.

Li Weixi was waiting for Ajin in the wing room, and seeing her expression full of joy when she came back, she knew what treasure she had won.

A Jin lifted the wine jar to mid-air, and shook it in front of Li Weixi, her expression full of determination: "Miss Li, the wine made by Mrs. Ashin is delicious, do you want to try it?"

At the end she added: "It's not strong, it won't be intoxicating."

"Okay." Li Weixi nodded.

A Jin fetched a cup, poured it into the mellow fruit wine, and looked at Li Weixi expectantly.

Li Weixi put the cup between his nostrils, smelled it, then put it to his lips, and began to sip in small sips.

She was born in the palace, and she was deeply loved by the emperor. She participated in countless banquets and drank countless wines.

Compared with rice wine and shochu, fruit wine has a lower alcohol content and is indeed less intoxicating.

It's just that this jar of fruit wine has a bit more stamina than ordinary fruit wine.

"How?" Ajin asked impatiently.

"Okay." Li Weixi only said one word, concise and clear, and paused: "Does Miss A Jin drink alcohol often?"

A Jin was afraid that Miss Li would think wrongly, thinking that she was an alcoholic, she shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, no, I seldom drink alcohol on weekdays, and I would only take a few sips when Axin's sister-in-law had brewed at home. Alcohol is easy to hurt the body, it is better to drink less."

"Ah."

From this point of view, A Jin is not good at drinking, so is this jar of wine too strong for her?

Li Weixi noticed that today's A Jin is different from the previous days. She treats herself with enthusiasm and a little nervousness.

Aren't these signs a sign that she has a good impression of him?

So can this jar of wine make her utter the truth after drinking?

"Sister-in-law Ah Xin's fruit wine is only brewed once every six months, and it will take several months for the wine to be ready." The aroma of the wine was overflowing, and Ah Jin couldn't help but smack her lips twice after waiting for half a year.

She wanted to turn around and fetch a cup.

Li Weixi caught a glimpse of her movements from the corner of her eye, and hurriedly said: "Although this wine is good, drinking on an empty stomach will hurt your health. We might as well finish dinner first, and then have a drink."

A Jin stopped her movements and felt that what she said was reasonable, so she went to the kitchen to cook dinner.

They didn't go out on rainy days, and there were not many ingredients left at home. Together, the two of them decided to eat simpler tonight.

Ajin cooked two bowls of noodles with some vegetarian dishes and made some egg drop, Li Weixi still ate with relish.

After supper the wind picked up again.The two locked the kitchen door and put sandbags against the door to prevent it from being blown open by the wind.

Then they went back to the room together.

In the wing room, the wine jars and cups have been set up, and some snacks are also prepared.

A Jin pulled Miss Li to the table, poured the wine, and said slowly: "Miss Li, tell me some interesting stories about traveling around."

"Okay." Li Weixi raised his glass and drank the fruit wine inside, "What does Miss Ajin want to hear?"

"You said earlier that you have been to Nanjing City. I wonder if you have heard anecdotes about the royal family?" Seeing that she had finished drinking, A Jin also drank the fruit wine in her glass, and poured the wine again.

After drinking a glass of fruit wine, all limbs and bones became warm, and the smile on A Jin's face became stronger.

"Of course there are. Why don't I tell Ajin the interesting story about Zunwang and his wife."

"Yeah."

Li Weixi noticed that as long as he raised his glass, A Jin would also raise his glass.So when it comes to ups and downs, turning points, and pauses, she will take a few sips.

Unknowingly, A Jin also drank a few more glasses, her little face flushed, and she looked at Li Weixi with blurred eyes.

At the beginning, she was still clear and radiant, but later, when the stamina of the fruit wine picked up, A Jin's body couldn't help but began to shake.

While shaking, he laughed and said: "This king...is a strange person, and he loves to turn jealous at every turn...hahaha..."

Li Weixi held up the wine cup, looked at her with a smile, and echoed: "Yes. But there must be a reason for what happened. I heard people say that this princess looks very good, and she is dignified and self-sustaining, very elegant , can you not attract people's attention? This king must be stingy."

Hearing this, A Jin waved her hands and laughed loudly: "No matter...how beautiful the princess is, she can't compare to you, Miss Li...you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen, so... ..the fairies in the storybook are all inferior to you..."

All the words hidden in my heart have been said, and it seems that I am very drunk.
