Chapter 63: Improved Crossbow for Brother Xiaoyong

Chapter 63 Improves crossbow for Brother Xiaoyong

He wants to protect her, just like he did when he was a child.

He helped her drive away the little fat man who bullied him at the entrance of the village, saying that his sister could not be bullied by anyone.

He helped her pick jujubes from the tree, saying that dangerous things should be left to his brother.

He quarreled with the village children because they laughed at her as an unwanted wild child, and he said she had family and she was his sister.

Mother Xu came back to her senses, and suddenly said to her son: "Okay, I won't stop you anymore, you go to be a soldier, as long as you think in your heart that you will take the young lady home in the future, that mother will believe you I won’t come here indiscriminately, and I will abide by the rules.”

"Mom?" Xu Zheng bravely turned his head and looked at Mother Xu in surprise.

"Okay, remember, you are a soldier not only to defend your home and country, not only for fame and wealth, but also for our family. You have a mother who is worried about you, and you have a younger sister who is waiting for you." Take her home after you have established a career." Mother Xu urged.

"Mother, don't worry, I remember it! I keep everything firmly in my heart!" Xu Zhengyong firmly promised.

Then Xu Zhengyong looked at his father.

Xu Zhushan didn't have any opinion at all, as long as his wife had no opinion, then he had no opinion.

And my son’s idea is very good, and he also supports it.

Wei Ruo silently turned her eyes away, not wanting the nanny and the others to see her red eye sockets.

Really, she doesn't cry much, why are her eyes red?

At this time, you should smile happily. What kind of trouble is red eyes!

Damn it, I just can't bear it...

After returning from Sibaozhai, Wei Ruo dragged Xiumei into her small warehouse.

"Miss, what are you looking for?" Xiumei wanted to help but didn't know where to start.

"I don't know what specific materials I need. I can only see what can be used. Brother Xiaoyong is going to serve in the army. I have to make him something useful for self-defense."

Although she supports Brother Xiaoyong's ambition in terms of attitude, she still worries about his safety in her heart.

So she wanted to prepare some useful things for Xiao Yong before he went to the army.

"That's right! Then I'll help Miss find out if there's anything hard!" Xiumei understood what Wei Ruo meant, and immediately joined in the search for materials.

Searching and searching, Wei Ruo suddenly stopped.

Xiumei: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Wei Ruo: "I thought of that crossbow."

Xiumei: "Crossbow?"

Wei Ruo: "Brother Xiaoyong joins the army now, and what he joins is to defend the city against Japanese pirates. If I can update some weapons in the army, will I also protect Brother Xiaoyong in disguise?"

Xiumei: "That's for sure!"

Wei Ruo: "You continue to help me find out if there is anything hard in the things I brought, I will go back to the room first."

After returning to the room, Wei Ruo took out the paper and pen, and began to draw drawings tentatively.

If you make a detachable quiver, which is the same as the bullet clip, and install it directly on the 驽, and replace it with another quivers after shooting one quivers, theoretically, you can increase the firing frequency of the 驽.

Xiumei didn't find anything useful in the warehouse, and when she returned to the room, she saw the blueprint Wei Ruo was drawing.

"Miss, what is this? Is it a crossbow?"

"Yeah. It's a crossbow. I played with it when I went to the school last time, but it didn't work very well. At that time, I thought that if I could improve it, it would be more powerful. But I have no interest in managing the affairs of the Wei family, so I didn't take any action." .Now Brother Xiaoyong is going to be a soldier, so I thought of this thing. If there is no condition to make effective armor for the time being, then make some more powerful weapons. Offense is the best defense.”

"That's the best, as long as our side is strong enough, the enemy won't be able to hurt Brother Xiaoyong!" Xiumei said happily.

"Well, I also plan to ask Brother Xiaoyong to take credit for the final drawing."

Just entered the barracks, Brother Xiaoyong can only be a soldier at the bottom. If he has a small contribution, even if he can't get promoted, he can still leave an impression on the officer.

"Miss, although this method is good, but Brother Xiaoyong is not a person who can set up such delicate things at first glance. If someone asks a little bit, he will be confused."

"Stupid Meimei, I didn't ask him to say that he designed it himself, but that it was drawn by an expert. He asked for it. It is said that he is an old man who wanders the rivers and lakes, the kind who lives in no fixed place, and he doesn't know where he will go after leaving the blueprint."

"Miss is still smart!"

"Meimei, I need to find a good carpenter to help me practice. I can't do it just by painting. I need to practice while painting."

"Then Uncle Xu may be able to, I remember Uncle Xu was a carpenter before." Xiumei reminded.

"Well, then I'll go ask Uncle Xu after I finish this draft."

Wei Ruo was very concerned about this matter, and locked herself in the room until Yun's sent someone to urge her to eat at night, and she didn't come out of the room.

After coming out, he handed over the drawings to Xiumei, and asked her to send them to Sibaozhai to Uncle Xu immediately.

The situation is special now. Once Xiaoyong goes to register and apply, he may enter the military camp at any time, and she has no time to delay.

When Xiumei came back, she brought back Xu Zhushan's response. Xu Zhushan hadn't tried to make similar things before so he couldn't be sure, but he would try overnight according to the blueprint given by Wei Ruo. Regardless of whether it could be done or not, he would pass it tomorrow morning. The carrier pigeon responded to Wei Ruo.

The next morning, the carrier pigeon arrived as scheduled. Xu Zhushan had already made a prototype according to what Wei Ruo said, but there were a few details that Xu Zhushan put forward suggestions for improvement based on his own carpentry experience.

Based on the suggestions for improvement, Wei Ruo began to draw the second edition of the draft paper.

After going back and forth like this for three days, when I got Uncle Xu's reply on the fourth day, I finally got a perfect answer.

The kind of crossbow Wei Ruo wanted was made.

Wei Ruo was very satisfied with this, but Wei Ruo didn't stop there. She had to hurry up and prepare medicine for Xu Zhengyong who was about to enter the barracks.

Wei Ruo's busyness can be felt by everyone around her, and the people in Yingzhuyuan are no exception.

It just so happened that today Wei Ruo came to Yingzhu Garden to eat and drink again, Wei Jin also said, "You seem to be very busy recently."

"Yes, I'm busy making medicine." Wei Ruo answered half and hid the other half.

No way, she still doesn't want too many people to know about the nanny's affairs, even Wei Jinyi still wants to keep it a secret for now.

"By the way, my second brother, can you help me get the medicine of Angelica dahurica in a short time?" Wei Ruo asked.

Angelica dahurica is one of the medicinal materials used to make gold sore medicine. Because of the war in Xingshan County, Baizhi is also in short supply, and the pharmacies in the city are short of this medicine.

Wei Jinyi: "Urgent?"

Wei Ruo: "I'm making some backup medicine for a friend. He's leaving soon, so I'm really in a hurry."

Wei Jinyi: "Friend?"

For some reason, Wei Jin also felt that Wei Ruo's friend was a man.
