Chapter 132 Successfully Hitting the Duck
After the stall owner took it, he immediately gave Ling Xiyue 10 bamboo rings, and Ling Xiyue took it.
He Tingxi didn't expect Ling Xiyue to be so quick, and he wanted to pay himself?
"Xiyue, I'll pay you."
"It's okay, these are just small changes. I have money."
Ling Xiyue responded nonchalantly. While speaking, she stood outside the line, looked at the items on the ground, and asked He Tingxi.
"Tingxi, you want that? I'll give it to you."
"You're going to give it to me?" He Tingxi was stunned and a little surprised.
"Well, you gave me a bracelet just now. Now it's my turn to give you a gift. Take a look. I'll give you the one you like." Ling Xiyue said generously.
When He Tingxi heard it, he found it interesting.
"Then I have to take a good look."
He Tingxi looked at the things on the ground. There were all kinds of porcelain bottles and small toys for children to play with. But in the last row, there were several big ducks, all with their feet tied.
After looking around, He Tingxi didn't find anything he wanted, but in order not to disappoint Ling Xiyue, he pointed to the vase in the front which was the easiest to put on.
"This vase is nice. You can take it back and put your flowers in it."
Ling Xiyue looked in the direction of He Tingxi's finger and saw that it was an ordinary vase. She didn't like it very much. She shook her head and said, "This vase is too ordinary. It doesn't fit anywhere. Let's just throw it away."
As she was talking, she saw the big ducks in the last row and instantly became interested.
"Why not trap the duck and take it back to make roast duck?" Ling Xiyue suggested.
He Tingxi was a little surprised when he saw this, and asked curiously: "Well, have you ever practiced pitching pots before? If so, it shouldn't be a problem."
Ling Xiyue was stunned and shook her head.
"No, I haven't practiced it. But it doesn't matter. I can give it a try. Maybe I'll be lucky."
Seeing Ling Xiyue's confident look, He Tingxi nodded and encouraged: "Okay, let's put the duck on. Whether we can have roast duck tonight depends on you."
He was very tactful and kept a distance from Ling Xiyue, giving her freedom to express herself. At the same time, he also kept an eye on the environment around him to prevent anyone from bumping into Ling Xiyue.
Ling Xiyue was concentrating on throwing the bamboo ring.
It was clearly aimed correctly, but after throwing it out, it just couldn't hit the target. Ling Xiyue was not convinced and tried one after another, but every time she threw it, she missed.
All ten bamboo rings were thrown out, but none of them hit the target.
Ling Xiyue's desire to win was aroused, and she was unwilling to give up, so she bought 10 more bamboo rings.
The result was no surprise: the entire army was annihilated.
Ling Xiyue became a little anxious, so she bought 10 bamboo rings again and threatened.
"This time, I must win. Otherwise, I won't be able to swallow this anger."
Seeing this, He Tingxi panicked a little, worried that Ling Xiyue would get angry and get sick. He comforted her, "Xiyue, this is just a game, don't take it too seriously, and don't get angry and get sick. How about I help you put it on?"
When Ling Xiyue heard He Tingxi say he would help her put it on, she shook her head anxiously.
"No, you are good at catching ducks, and catching ducks is a piece of cake for you. What I lack is not ducks, but ducks that I have caught myself, which are of different nature."
Seeing that Ling Xiyue was so persistent, He Tingxi stopped trying to persuade her and just watched quietly from the side.
But when he saw that Ling Xiyue failed again and again, not only was Ling Xiyue very angry, he himself also lost his composure.
When he saw that Ling Xiyue only had three bamboo rings left in her hand, he finally couldn't help it.
He walked to Ling Xiyue and said softly, "Xiyue, there is a technique to putting a ring on. Just do it according to my instructions."
Ling Xiyue was a little unhappy when she saw He Tingxi coming over to teach her, but when she saw that there were only three circles left in her hand, she knew that if she didn't find a way, it would be useless, so she nodded.
"Okay, you say,"
He Tingxi held Ling Xiyue's right hand and pointed at the duck in front.
"Xiyue, first look at the bamboo ring in your hand, then aim at the duck in the same line of sight. When you feel that your eyes, the bamboo ring, and the duck are all in the same line of sight, use your wrist to exert force and throw it out quickly. This way, basically, there will be no problem."
"it is good."
Ling Xiyue followed He Tingxi's method obediently. After aligning them, she exerted force with her wrist and threw it out quickly.
Although it missed, it landed very close to the duck's feet.
"Look, are we close? Try again." He Tingxi encouraged immediately.
Ling Xiyue was overjoyed and immediately felt hopeful. She used the same method and voted again.
This time it missed again, but the bamboo ring was put on the duck and was "just inches away" from the duck's neck.
"We're close. Try again and it should work." He Tingxi continued to encourage.
At this moment, Ling Xiyue was like a chicken with its blood pumped up. She was full of fighting power. She knew that she only had the last bamboo ring in her hand and victory or defeat depended on it. She concentrated her attention on the duck and was determined not to let herself be distracted.
With one move, throw it quickly towards the duck.
This time, the bamboo ring was firmly placed around the duck's neck.
Seeing this, Ling Xiyue hugged He Tingxi excitedly and shouted excitedly: "I succeeded, I succeeded."
When He Tingxi saw Ling Xiyue hugging him, he also hugged Ling Xiyue and felt a little excited.
"Well, I knew you could succeed."
The spectators on the side saw Ling Xiyue hit the duck and praised her.
"Madam, you are quite skilled."
When Ling Xiyue heard someone praising her, she let go of the arms that were holding He Tingxi and responded to the spectators.
"It's the result of many efforts, not good skills." Ling Xiyue looked humble.
"It's still very impressive. Many people can't catch a duck." The spectators continued to praise.
Ling Xiyue didn't explain anything further, just faced it with a smile.
When the stall owner saw Ling Xiyue finally caught a duck after 30 hoops, he was happy for her.
After he put the duck into the small cage, he walked up to Ling Xiyue and handed it to her.
"Ma'am, congratulations. Here, take the duck." The stall owner smiled.
When Ling Xiyue was about to take it, He Tingxi took the initiative to reach out and take the small cage.
"I'll get it."
Seeing He Tingxi being so considerate, Ling Xiyue smiled and nodded.
"it is good."
"Thank you, boss." Ling Xiyue said to the stall owner with a smile.
"It is I who should thank you, ma'am. Thank you for taking care of my business." The stall owner responded politely.
Ling Xiyue looked at the ducks in the cage and asked with concern: "Boss, you didn't lose money, did you?"
The stall owner smiled when he saw Ling Xiyue was so polite.
"Madam, you are so thoughtful. You bought a duck from me for 90 coins, how can I lose money?"
Ling Xiyue felt much better after hearing this.
"That's good, boss. Good business."
"Thank you for your good wishes, madam. Take care." The stall owner responded with a smile.
He Tingxi stood aside, quietly watching the conversation between Ling Xiyue and the stall owner. He was very satisfied with Ling Xiyue's words and actions, and couldn't help but smile.
After Ling Xiyue finished speaking, she took He Tingxi's hand and left the stall.
