After dressing as a farmer's wife, I was spoiled

Chapter 131 The Power of the Crossbow
Along the way, Luo Hui's mouth didn't stop much, and she kept asking questions.

Xu Banxia felt that the person in front of her was like a talkative lady.

I don't know where Miss Luo came from to talk so much, and I kept talking to her.

When Xu Banxia couldn't listen anymore, she heard Luo Hui who was walking in front said: "Here we are, Miss Xu, this is your residence."

Xu Banxia smiled lightly: "Thank you, Miss Luo."

"It's okay, oh yes, if you need anything, just tell me." Luo Hui was very enthusiastic about Xu Banxia.

"it is good."

"When dinner is ready, I'll have someone call you."

Xu Banxia nodded slightly.

After Luo Hui finished speaking, she turned and left.

Xu Banxia turned around and went into the house, looking at the decoration that a rich family should have inside, she sighed: "It's nice to be rich."

At dinner time, Xu Banxia and others were taken to the front hall for dinner.

Worried that Liu Dashan would make a joke while eating, Xu Banxia said to him in a voice that could be heard by two people: "Father, when you eat later, pay attention to how you eat, and don't pick up too much food at once."

"Okay, I got it." Liu Dashan also knew in his heart that this was a wealthy family, so he had to pay attention when eating, so as not to make a joke.

If a joke is made, he will lose face in front of so many people.

The point is that Master Luo and that Peng Sihai are good brothers. If he made a joke, that Peng Sihai would definitely laugh at him, so he didn't want to make a joke in front of Peng Sihai.

I thought that Peng Sihai would part ways with them when he arrived in Fucheng, but who knew that Luo Bin's father would be Peng Sihai's good brother, and now he was really happy for nothing.

"Everyone, I offer you a toast." Master Luo raised his glass and looked at Peng Sihai and the others.

Everyone raised their glasses.

Then, Master Luo finished it in one gulp, laughed twice and said: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables, you are welcome."

After Master Luo moved his chopsticks, the others did so.

Xu Banxia ate her meal silently the whole time, listening to what they were talking about.

Sitting next to Mrs. Luo, Luo Hui saw Xu Banxia eating alone, and wanted to sit next to Xu Banxia but had some scruples.

After all, with so many people around, it's not easy for her to speak that way.

Master Luo has been talking to Peng Sihai, and while talking, he said the purpose of coming to Fucheng to find him this time.

"Brother, I came to see you this time for a very important matter." Peng Sihai's face became serious.

This made Master Luo wonder what the important thing Peng Sihai said was. "What are you going to tell me?"

"There is a good thing, you will definitely like it when you see it." Peng Sihai said with a mysterious face.

This made Master Luo even more curious.

"What? Tell me quickly! I'm so anxious." Master Luo couldn't wait to know.

"Wait a minute." Peng Sihai looked at Xu Banxia at this moment. "Ban Xia, do you have the blueprint with you?"

Master Luo couldn't help frowning, why didn't he say anything, and asked him to wait.

Why do you have to wait?Can't you say it now?

In Master Luo's heart, he was extremely anxious at the moment.

Xu Banxia heard Peng Sihai talking to him, and turned his head to look over. "Bring it." She kept the drawings in the space all the time.

"That's good, Banxia, ​​take advantage of this time and hand it over to him." Peng Sihai said, looking at Master Luo.

"Okay." Xu Banxia responded, and took out the drawing from the space with his hand hanging under the table.

Then, Xu Banxia stood up, walked to Master Luo and handed him the blueprint.

Master Luo was very puzzled, could this blueprint be the good thing Peng Sihai said?
With the previous curiosity, Master Luo took the drawing and opened it.

After reading it, Master Luo frowned.

It looks like a weapon is painted on it.

Moreover, it was a weapon he had never seen before. This weapon looked very delicate.

"Sihai, this is?"

"Brother, let her explain to you in detail, this blueprint was drawn by her, she knows better than me." Peng Sihai pointed to Xu Banxia and said to Master Luo.

"Oh? This little girl drew it?" Master Luo couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this.

The weapon in this picture is so exquisite, it was actually made by a little girl?

This... really made him a little suspicious.

But Peng Sihai is his good brother for many years, since he said it was drawn by this little girl, then it is true.

There's no way he could have lied to him.

Xu Banxia observed the changes in Master Luo's eyes from the beginning to the end, from the suspicion revealed in his eyes to the final belief when he heard Peng Sihai say that she painted it.

But she could also understand Master Luo's suspicion at the beginning, after all, her age was too young for them.

I think she is so small and a girl, it is impossible to draw such delicate drawings.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Before Xu Banxia could speak, Luo Hui answered for Xu Banxia. "Father, her name is Xu Banxia."

Master Luo heard this and looked at his daughter Luo Hui. "Oh? How did Huier know that her name is Xu Banxia?"

Luo Hui lowered her head and replied, "I... I asked her."

Hearing this, Master Luo couldn't help being taken aback.

His daughter knew best when he would take the initiative to ask a person's name.

What's more, this little girl just came today, and his daughter actually took the initiative to ask someone's name, which has never happened before.

"Hui'er, don't do this next time." Master Luo didn't scold her angrily, but just reminded her.

Luo Hui replied obediently: "I know dad, besides, it's hard to say if there will be a next time." Not everyone can catch her eye.

"Okay, you can sit down and eat your meal." Master Luo said warmly.

Luo Hui glanced at Xu Banxia, ​​and then buried her head in eating, but from time to time she looked up at Xu Banxia again.

"Girl, did you come up with what you drew on this blueprint?"

"I had a dream before, and I thought it was good, so I drew it from memory." Xu Banxia spoke nonsense seriously, without blinking his eyes.

Master Luo never expected this answer. "Dream?"

"Well, I know it's hard for Master Luo to believe it, but I did dream about it, and then I drew it myself." Xu Banxia looked into Master Luo's eyes and said.

Master Luo also looked into Xu Banxia's eyes, and saw that there was no evasion or even a little bit of panic in her eyes, and Master Luo gradually believed it.

He has lived for decades, and he has never seen such an exquisite weapon, perhaps it was dreamed and drawn by the little girl in front of him.

"Can you tell me about this weapon in detail?"

"Yes." Xu Banxia nodded, and then said. "The one drawn on this blueprint is called a crossbow. Compared with the bow, its biggest feature is that it has a long range. When the crossbow is stretched, the force required is greater than that of the bow. Therefore, it has a longer range than the bow."

"Secondly, this crossbow is aimed at the target and has a higher hit rate. Moreover, the crossbow can fire several or even dozens of arrows at the same time. It has stronger combat power and is more practical than a bow."

When Master Luo heard this, he suddenly wanted to see the power of this crossbow with his own eyes.

"Hearing you say that, I look forward to it even more."

"Master Luo, although this crossbow is very good, it also has a shortcoming." Xu Banxia felt that Master Luo was a little too happy.

Hearing this, Master Luo couldn't help being taken aback, he thought that this exquisite crossbow would have no shortcomings. "Oh? There are still shortcomings? What shortcomings?"

Xu Banxia replied: "The disadvantage of this crossbow is that the crossbow is very heavy."

"bulky?"

Xu Banxia nodded: "Yes."

"It's okay, its advantages outweigh its disadvantages." Master Luo didn't care much. Many weapons also have certain disadvantages, which is nothing.

Peng Sihai spoke out at the right time. "Brother, Ban Xia took this drawing to me to make this weapon. After I made it, I couldn't help but sigh how exquisite this weapon is."

"Later, when Banxia came to me to get this weapon, I suggested that she use this weapon to its greater use."

"I thought, if it is used in marching and fighting, it must be a good thing."

When Master Luo heard Peng Sihai's words, he realized it.

That's right, it's not too good to use it in marching and fighting!
He looked at the drawing, why didn't he think of this.

If Si Hai hadn't said it, he wouldn't have thought about fighting.

"Sihai, you are right! Could it be that this is the purpose of your coming to me this time?" Master Luo became happier the more he thought about it, with an uncontrollable excitement on his face.

"That's right, that's the purpose of bringing Pinellia to Fucheng."

Master Luo laughed twice. "Haha, then you came to the right place. If it weren't for this blueprint, I'm afraid you might not come to this prefecture to look for me when I die of old age, right?"

After Master Luo said this, Peng Sihai suddenly felt embarrassed. "Brother can't say that, what if I come to Fucheng to look for you one day."

"Come on, if you wanted to come, you would have come a long time ago. Why haven't you come for so many years?"

In front of so many people, Master Luo didn't save Peng Sihai any face when he spoke.

Peng Sihai began to change the subject. "Didn't the eldest brother also want to come to see me? Let's stop talking about this, let's talk about business."

Master Luo was successfully led astray. "Yes, yes, right."

Xu Banxia listened to the two of them quietly, and did not return to his seat to sit.

Master Luo looked at Xu Banxia, ​​who knows, Xu Banxia handed over another drawing. "Master Luo, I still have a blueprint here, you might as well look at it again."

Peng Sihai on the side was stunned, why are there still drawings?
Shouldn't it be just a drawing of the crossbow?

What is this situation?
Master Luo was also stunned. He took the blueprint that Xu Banxia handed over to read, and after reading it, his eyes were filled with shock.

The one drawn on this drawing is bigger than the one just now, a bit like a car.

"Master Luo, this is a ballista, and its high attack distance is not bad."

Hearing what Xu Banxia said, Luo Bin was very curious, so he got up and walked to Master Luo's side.

"Father, can you take a look at me?"

Master Luo handed the drawing to Luo Bin without even thinking about it, and said with a smile: "Look at it, you will be amazed at the exquisiteness of this crossbow after reading it."

Luo Bin took the drawing and looked at it. When he saw it, he suddenly thought of seeing Xu Banxia holding a weapon he had never seen before a few days ago.

Unexpectedly, the weapon she held in her hand that day was this crossbow.

"This weapon is indeed exquisite, and it is very good to use on the battlefield." Luo Bin praised.

Xu Banxia listened to what Luo Bin said, but did not make a sound.

Instead, it was Mrs. Luo who spoke out at this time. "Okay, master, let them all sit down and eat. If you don't eat any more, the food will be cold. If you have anything to say, it's not too late to say it after the meal is over."

"That's right, that's right, Ma'am said yes." Master Luo echoed, then looked at Xu Banxia and said, "Girl, you should take this blueprint first, just now my brother Sihai said that he made a crossbow for you, I don't know if the girl is here this time. Do you have one from Fucheng? It’s too late now, can you take it out tomorrow so I can see its power?”

Xu Banxia didn't reach out to pick up the blueprint. "Master Luo, I originally intended to give you this blueprint. You don't have to let me hold it, just keep it."

"As for my crossbow, of course I brought it with me. Since Master Luo wants to see it, I will bring it to Master Luo tomorrow."

"That's really great." Hearing Xu Banxia's words, Master Luo was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. "Quick, quick, sit down and eat."

Xu Banxia responded, returned to his seat and sat down.

Luo Hui listened the whole time. When Xu Banxia was talking about the crossbow, Luo Hui looked at Xu Banxia with light in his eyes.

In the end, Luo Hui was full of admiration for Xu Banxia.

Unexpectedly, Xu Banxia is only a little older than her, but she is so powerful.

It is simply too admirable.

Being so powerful at such a young age, wouldn't it be even more powerful in the future!

The more Luo Hui thought about it, the more excited she became. She was so excited that she poked the rice in the bowl with her chopsticks.

Mrs. Luo noticed her daughter's behavior and stopped her immediately.

She lowered her voice and scolded: "Hui'er, there are so many people, please pay attention to me! It's really outrageous!"

For Mrs. Luo's scolding, Luo Hui, who was in a good mood, was not angry, and sat down obediently after responding.

Seeing this, Mrs. Luo was satisfied.

After the meal, Mrs. Luo arranged for servants to take Xu Banxia and others back to her guest room, and let the servants wait for them to freshen up.

Liu Dashan returned to the guest room where he was staying, and looked at the servants bringing water to wash his feet, feeling uncomfortable all over.

It was the first time for him to be served by someone like this. Although this feeling was good, it made him very uncomfortable.

He has healthy limbs, so he really doesn't need people to serve him.

"Go out, I'll come by myself, you don't have to wait on me." Liu Dashan saw the servant squatting down to wash his feet, and immediately stopped him.

"You are a guest of our house. If you don't allow me to serve you, the housekeeper will say that the younger one is not serving you well and will punish you. So please let the younger one serve you and wash your feet."

Liu Dashan: "..."

Are rich people like this? If they don't let them serve, they will be punished.

After hesitating for a while, Liu Dashan's heart softened, and he reluctantly said: "If this is the case, then you can wash it."

If he lets this servant go out and he washes it himself, then he will definitely be punished.
