Another Life: Elf Archer

Nian Nian followed Qi Youfeng with a curious look on his face and entered a small shop hung with colorful gauze fabrics. .biquge35xs

This shop owner must be an obsessive-compulsive disorder!

Looking at the layers of cloth hanging on the four walls every year, I am certain and very sure of my judgment.

The store is not big, but starting from the left hand side of the door, all the cloths are arranged in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple to the right hand side of Nian Nian.

All the cloths are hung according to color gradients. It seems that the width and length of these cloths are exactly the same.

I have to say that this was indeed very refreshing at first glance. After Nian Nian glanced around, his eyes fell on the large counter placed across the store.

Standing behind the counter was a woman wearing linen clothes, bending over the counter and measuring something with a ruler.

Following Qi Youfeng every year, he looked at the colorful flowers on the wall for a while, and couldn't help but rub his eyes.

Her enhanced vision was already sensitive to color, and now walking into this store was like walking into a palette.

Although these colors are not messy, in such a small space, facing so many and detailed color gradients, as well as various bright or dark embroidery patterns on the cloth, still gave her a strong visual impact. .

Fortunately, the lighting in this small shop is not good, otherwise I feel that I will be blinded every year.

So the blank space in the middle of the palette firmly attracted Nian Nian's attention. She looked at the woman in simple clothes, and then at the colorful decoration style, and was a little unsure of this person's identity.

"Shopkeeper Qin, long time no see. Strawberry," Qi Youfeng greeted familiarly and led Niannian to stand at the counter.

Looking at the ruler in the hands of shopkeeper Qin and the pattern drawings covering the counter table every year, he tilted his head curiously, wanting to take a closer look.

"Oh, everyone Qi is here, please come into the main hall!" Shopkeeper Qin seemed to have just noticed someone coming in. He quickly got out of the counter and respectfully asked Qi Youfeng to follow her to the back.

"Everyone Qi?"

Nian Nian followed her for a few steps and discovered that there was a small doorway hidden behind those pieces of cloth.

The doorway was only blocked by a plain, thin curtain, and bright sunlight filtered through the curtain, illuminating the orange-yellow cloth on the opposite side.

For the sake of her own eyes, Niannian felt that it was better not to look back at this moment, so she raised her head slightly and looked at Qi Youfeng curiously.

"It's a bit like a title. It's also a recognition of my craftsmanship."

Qi Youfeng raised the door curtain and let shopkeeper Qin and Nian Nian go first. He followed closely and stepped into a square courtyard.

In the middle of the courtyard is a wisteria flower stand that takes up one-half of the area. There are two rows of tables and chairs under the flower stand. They seem to be arranged according to the decoration of the main hall of ordinary people's homes, except that some calligraphy and paintings will be hung after the main seat of ordinary people's homes, but here There are only flower branches hanging from the flower stand.

Shopkeeper Qin asked Qi Youfeng and Niannian to sit in chairs under the wisteria flower stand. He made tea with his own hands, served it to the two of them, and then looked at Qi Youfeng:

"Everyone Qi, is today still the same as before?"

"Same." Qi Youfeng nodded, paused, and asked:

"Are there any better leather materials recently?"

"Leather?" Shopkeeper Qin glanced at Qi Youfeng in surprise, and then asked professionally:

"Do you have any special requirements? For example, color, texture, etc. 35xs"

Qi Youfeng turned around and looked at Nian Nian, thought for a moment before replying:

"It should still be brown. The texture is softer, but the toughness should be good, but not too stiff."

After listening to this, shopkeeper Qin seemed to be searching his own inventory in his mind, and asked after a moment:

"how much do you need?"

"About six feet!"

"So many?!" After being surprised, shopkeeper Qin began to search the inventory in his mind again. After a while, he looked up and replied with some hesitation:

"There are leather materials that meet your requirements, but the price is"

"Bring it to me first, I can tell you the price." Qi Youfeng waved his hand, saying that he didn't need to worry about it.

Shopkeeper Qin saluted in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, said "Excuse me" to Nian and Nian, and then retreated to another small door, seemingly to pick up the goods.

Niannian looked back at the courtyard and looked at Qi Youfeng:

"You want to make clothes for me?"

She did not ignore the way Qi Youfeng looked at her just now.

"No, I have to measure you to make clothes. It's not convenient for me, so how about making you a cloak?"

Qi Youfeng turned to look at her with a gentle smile.

"Inconvenient?" Nian Nian was a little strange, "Then don't you make those women's clothes for your customers? Do you ask them to measure them themselves and tell you? What if they don't fit?"

Only by measuring your body can you tailor your clothes. This is common sense that we still have every year.

And after all, there is a difference between professionals and amateurs. Niannian felt that at the very least, she would not be able to measure her properly.

Qi Youfeng sighed, shook his head, and drank tea.

Nian Nian was confused for a moment, and then shouted in surprise: "Ah! Cloak! You want to make me a cloak?"

Qi Youfeng looked at Nian Nian who was suddenly cheering for joy, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he asked:

"It looks like this birthday gift will suit you very well?"

"Thank you, Brother Feng!"

Niannian unceremoniously accepted the birthday gift that had not yet arrived, stood up with a smile, and imitated the behavior of shopkeeper Qin just now, and made a non-standard blessing gift for Qi Youfeng.

Qi Youfeng received this gift with a slight curl in the corner of his mouth, and his already gentle temperament became a little warmer.

Nian Nian looked at him and blinked, then suddenly said: "Brother Feng, your smile is much prettier than before."

"Huh?" Qi Youfeng was a little stunned. He raised his hand and pressed the corner of his mouth. He didn't quite understand what Nian Nian meant.

"When I first met you, although you smiled, and you smiled in a friendly and gentle manner, you also felt distant and careless."

Nian Nian rubbed his chin as if reminiscing. After finishing speaking, he turned his head and stared into Qi Youfeng's eyes, and continued:

"But that smile just now seems like," Nian Nian looked up at the sky, "the warm wind in spring is like the sunshine now."

Qi Youfeng moved his finger at the corner of his mouth and looked into Nian Nian's eyes.

He has long discovered that the color of Nian Nian's eyes will change over time: during the day, it is a bright and jumping light green, and as night falls, the color of his eyes will change from light to dark, and eventually it will become transparent and deep. Emerald color.

But at this time, he felt that this light green was a little too bright and dazzling, so that as soon as his eyes touched those eyes, he hurriedly looked away as if he had been burned.

"Huh? Did I say something wrong?" Nian Nian scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

Nick reminded her that some things should not be said carelessly, especially when the relationship between two people is not deep, she should be careful not to say something that would cross the other person's safety line.

Although she was a little unclear about the meaning of this "safety line," she still remembered a Chinese saying that says, "Don't talk about shallow things and deep things."

But why did you forget it today?

Nian Nian smiled apologetically at Qi Youfeng, and he didn't know if Qi Youfeng could understand her apology.

Qi Youfeng sighed again.

He felt that if he kept sighing like this, he would probably get older. But should he call this girl slow or sharp?

Just when Nian Nian was already at a loss and silently reflecting on what he had just said, Shopkeeper Qin finally appeared, which saved Nian Nian who was endlessly reviewing himself for talking too much.

Behind Shopkeeper Qin were three women, all of whom seemed to be around forty years old. Each of them held a wooden tray in both hands. After Shopkeeper Qin stood still, they lined up behind her with lowered eyebrows and eyes.

"Master Qi, these are the leather materials that meet your requirements. They are all tanned and cooked leather. Please take a look."

Qi Youfeng exhaled, put down the teacup he had been holding in his hand, stood up and greeted Nian Nian:

"Stop worrying, come over and see which one you like."
