Chapter 307 New Year's Gift
When the dumplings were almost finished, Xiao Chengjin arrived.
Seeing Xiao Chengjin carrying a large backpack, Su Ruanruan was a little surprised, "Chengjin, what are you carrying?"
Xiao Chengjin blinked mysteriously, "A New Year's gift for you."
Hearing this, Su Ruanruan was curious and puzzled, and also had some anticipation, "Come in quickly!"
Xiao Chengjin followed Su Runruan into the house, then took down the backpack and placed it on the kang.
Su Ruanruan leaned over to take a look and saw that the backpack was filled with some wooden boards and strips, some long and some short, some thick and some thin, some thin and some thick.
"This is?"
"You'll find out in a moment."
After Xiao Chengjin finished speaking, he started to assemble it with ease.
His movements were very skillful, without any pause in between.
As time passed, the things Xiao Chengjin assembled gradually took shape.
Su Ruanruan smiled and turned to walk out. "You pretend first. I'll help grandma finish making the dumplings."
Granny Chen in the kitchen was surprised to see Su Ruanruan coming out again. "Why are you here again? There's only a little left. I can finish it myself."
"He's busy! It will be faster if I help to pack it."
It turns out that with Su Ruanruan's help, dumplings can indeed be made faster.
After cleaning the kitchen, Su Runrun went back into her room.
At this time, Xiao Chengjin had completely assembled everything.
It's a makeup box.
The wood was painted red and carved with simple patterns.
The makeup box has five layers in total. The top layer has a flip-up lid. When you open it, you can see a mirror embedded inside the lid.
The four layers below are drawers of different sizes.
It's really beautiful! And Su Ruanruan also had a vague guess in her heart.
After a slight hesitation, she still expressed her guess, "You did this!"
It is not a question, but an affirmative sentence.
Su Runrun felt that this was made by Xiao Chengjin himself.
I had this idea not because of anything else, but simply because I knew Xiao Chengjin.
If he had bought it or asked someone to make it, he would never assemble it in front of her, but would bring the finished product directly.
Since she assembled it in front of her, it can only mean one thing, this makeup box was made by Xiao Chengjin herself.
Xiao Chengjin's face was slightly red, but he still nodded and admitted openly, "I did it. I learned it in a short time, so the flower carving is very simple. When I become more skilled in it, I will make you a better-looking one!"
Su Ruanruan shook her head. "This is already very beautiful!"
She didn't know when Xiao Chengjin started learning, but it was not easy to make such a makeup box.
This makeup box in particular did not use a single nail from beginning to end, it was completely pieced together, which was even more rare and more sturdy and beautiful.
"I like it very much, thank you Cheng Jin."
"It's OK if you like it! But you don't have to say thank you to me!"
There is no need to say thank you between them.
"Okay, I won't tell you!"
The more Su Runrun looked at this makeup box, the more she liked it. Then, in front of Xiao Chengjin, she put all the hairpins and headbands that Qian Aiju had given her into it.
The five-layer makeup box was very large and could hold a lot of things. After she put these things in it, it basically didn't take up any space and looked a little pitiful just because it was all alone.
