Chapter 86 Night Banquet (Part 2)
"Today is Dai'er Xiaojie's birthday. I wonder what gift Mr. Jiayi gave Dai'er Xiaojie?"
The man who didn't know was named Kwick or Kwyvo said, probably because he wanted to change the topic and not let people always catch their jokes.
If Jia is ten years older, there will be a problem with this sentence. At that time, the boy was at a time when he was in love with face. If the gifts were not prepared well, he might make enemies if he lost face. But Jia Yi is still young and less than 10 years old, and people will not pay much attention to his gifts, as long as they are not missing.
Dai'er is still young now and is not yet jealous.
Jiayi was still a little unhappy, so why did he still get involved in himself?
So, being a human being is really difficult. Maybe if you have an unintentional word, others will interpret various meanings, and some people will complain.
Just like Lu Xun's leaves, maybe they happened to see a leaf falling down at that time, and you had to say something. Of course, you can also say that he had seen countless leaves falling down, so why did he remember to write that piece into an article?
Jiayi had no resentment, but was just used to being "invisible" and watching others quietly, just like trying to be a little transparent in class.
He took out the small box he bought in the grocery store and a roll and handed it to Dai'er.
Said: "Daier, this is a birthday gift for you. I hope you will like it. Happy birthday to you."
"What? You said you want something I haven't seen before." Dai'er asked.
"Oh, it turned out to be something that Daierxiao Jie had never seen before? It wouldn't be something messy, right?" Someone below said, thinking that even if Jiayi became an apprentice of a mage, would he get something good?
"Daierxiao jie, open it and take a look, let's see it too." said a lord armor on the opposite side.
"Is that OK?" Dai'er looked at Jiayi and opened it directly without waiting for a response.
They were very familiar with each other, and Daier knew that Jiayi would not disappoint him.
Inside the box is a wooden stick-like thing lying on a soft and fine linen cloth. The "wooden stick" is also carved with patterns, and gold and silver are wrong. This is a fountain pen prepared by Jiayi, but no one knows it except Jiayi's master and apprentice. Everyone else is a little confused. What is this?
Dai'er picked up the pen, looked at Jiayi, and tilted her head: "Hmm?"
The others also looked at Jiayi. No matter what he said, they were all curious about the gifts given by this little magic apprentice.
Although it looks like a wooden stick with gold and silver threads inlaid on it, it is not really a wooden stick. What's the use? Decoration, it looks like a wooden stick is not a precious wood, so you can't use it as a Mr. Jiao.
Jiayi went over, picked up the pen, pulled out the cap, and said, "This is a fountain pen."
"Is the pen? Is it the same as a quill?" Some people think it is a magic pen.
Jiayi continued to say as he said: "Yes, it works the same as the quill, but it is better to use it."
He poured some water from the table and showed everyone how to use it. Everyone here often uses quilts and can see how to use it at a glance.
Everyone didn't think it was amazing. No matter how novel it was, it was just a pen. And compared to a quill, it looked elegant without a quill. In terms of the effect of installing 13, it was far inferior.
Dai'er took the pen, looked at it, and asked the servant to get the paper and ink.
"Is this one more useful than a quill pen? It looks a little more refined, but it's not much different from the pen you made before."
Dai'er asked, and after that, she handed the pen to her father and asked him to take a look.
Jiayi was calm and introduced: "The main thing about this is the pen tip. Not only is the pen tip made of gold, but at the tip, we also use a special metal to reinforce the hardness, so that the pen tip will hardly be worn, and avoid the trouble of often cutting the pen tip. Moreover, it is very smooth to write, and there will be no tragedy of breaking the pen holder with too much force."
Jiayi introduced the advantages of his pen. At this time, the servant came over with paper and ink.
Lord Gabrie took it and tried it out.
He said while writing, "It's not bad. It's very convenient and smooth to write. It feels better than a quill, but it's not as elegant as a quill."
Several other lords also came up to try it, all expressing praise, but like Gabriel, they did not pay much attention to this. People who are not often writing with pens have little requirements for the comfort of the pen.
Obviously, the lords and the others do not need to write frequently, and their requirements for writing are still to be good-looking and valuable. They just praise a few words with encouragement, and do not think so.
"Hey, what's inside that roll? Is it a gift? Is it a painting?" said Baron Joyce, who was not interested in the pen.
"What is it?" Dai'er said as she opened the roll and poured out a roll of white paper from it, with words written on it.
"This is shi juàn, I specially made it for you to prevent you from losing your homework." Jiayi said.
These topics were carefully selected by Jiayi, not only by Im, but also the essence of the earth.
The people present opened the paper and looked at the two carriages colliding on it, the crazy pool administrator, the corners and some letters that they knew but did not understand at all, and were confused.
But they all looked awe-inspiring. After all, these represent knowledge, and they are likely to be unique to the masters. A few of them are smart enough to memorize them and go back and write them down.
Originally, Jiayi didn't think of using exercises as a birthday gift, but Im's words changed his mind, especially his younger brother was happy after getting a few papers. Unlike the earth, here, these papers represent knowledge and cannot be obtained casually.
But Dai'er's face was not very good. When she was staying with Jiayi to study, she was already doing the paper and was almost vomiting. She didn't like this gift, but it was not easy to get angry.
It seems that she doesn't really appreciate this knowledge.
Dai'er glanced at Jiayi, put away the shi juàn helplessly, washed the pen with clean water, opened it open to the box, and asked the servant to send it down.
By this time the sun had completely set, and it was dark in winter and the banquet began.
Kaichi was taken to the table next to him and sat with Flower.
The dishes were served soon, almost all of which were meat and fewer vegetables. Although there were many varieties, they were almost all boiled or roasted.
The taste is actually pretty good, it's just a bit monotonous and contains a lot of spices.
Fortunately, Jiayi is not picky about food, just eat it. Especially the soup inside is eaten with bread, which tastes very good. Unfortunately, the bread was delivered by Jia's family, and it is very soft and not suitable for dipping it in soup. If you don't pay attention, the bread will be soaked.
Although Jiayi often used iron pots to cook and fry in the moonlight hut in Linpin Valley, it seems that Daier and the others did not pay attention, at least they did not send it back to their homes.
The guests were very satisfied with the bread, which is now considered a specialty of Cyber.
The news was not easy at this time. People from nearby territories may have heard of rumors, but they did not understand the production method.
After halfway through the banquet, the housekeeper brought the birthday cake to the table and said, "This is specially made by the bakery for Xiaoxiao Jie. I wish Xiaoxiao Jie a happy birthday."
"Oh." Viscount Gabriel glanced at Kaichi and said nothing.
"How should I put my mouth on this?" Dai'er looked at the cake with difficulty. The entire cake was covered with cream on the surface, so you can't grab it with your hands.
Im was more awesome. He directly controlled the wind blade to cut the cake open. Everyone on the table divided a small piece and flew directly in front of them.
Everyone here was shocked and looked at Im in awe, and suddenly became restrained.
However, after tasting the cake, it gradually became active again, probably because the sweets were pleasant.
