Chapter 200: The Horse Farm

"What?!" In the main house of the east courtyard of Xia Mansion, Xia **'s eyes widened, and she asked in amazement: "Yanbei's horse farm gave Xiaoyu as a dowry, how can you give these horse farms to her?" That, that ......" The sage book she read, although she was dissatisfied with her husband giving Xiaoyu all the belongings, she still didn't want to take the yellow and white things too seriously, and she didn't say what 'that' was for a long time.

Xia Erye lifted his robe and sat on the Taishi chair, took a sip of tea, and explained slowly: "Who don't give Xiaoyu to? ”

**Milk swallowed her saliva, blinked her eyes and said, "We have Brother Lan, Brother Xu and Xi'er, you ...... Although it is not dependent on the shadow of the ancestors, parents must always leave something for their children. ”

The second master smiled: "Then they also need to be able to operate, Brother Lan's three brothers, you are not willing to let them practice martial arts, a business like a horse farm, where can ordinary people be subdued." ”

** Milk knows that what he said is reasonable, but she can't get over the hurdle in her heart, so she twists her handkerchief and purses her mouth and doesn't speak.

The second master continued: "I have already received the escort of the five grades, and when it comes to spring, I will escort Wenyi to the treasure ship of the imperial court and sail away, spreading the prestige of our saint to the four seas." ”

**Grandma didn't understand at first, and looked at the second brother in a daze for a while, before sitting on the couch and couldn't say a word for a while.

The second master glanced at her and said: "When the Chinese New Year is over this year, you will be able to wear a five-grade Fengxia, I heard that it is a mandarin duck pattern, and I don't know if it's true." ”

** Grandma came back to her senses and stammered: "You are going to be this five-grade official for this?"

The second master couldn't help but smile and said, "I'm afraid I still can't compare to the sixth brother." If you go to the sea like this, you may be able to survive from the four products. ”

**Milk held the table, her heart was as cold as water, and she asked tremblingly, "Why, are you dissatisfied with me in any way?"

Second Master Xia snorted and laughed: "It's already difficult for you to live with such a big family." What can I not be satisfied with, though. I'm almost forty years old, and if I don't go out to see where there is a chance. After receiving this errand, I can earn you a phoenix crown and a xia cloak. Why not. If the Internal Affairs Office is in a hurry, you will be able to dress back to your aunt for the New Year this year. ”

** Grandma couldn't help but pick up a handkerchief to hide her face and cry, which startled the second master, and she panicked: "What's wrong with you? In the future, when I go to sea, if you are afraid, let Xi'er accompany you. If you are not used to living in the house, let Xiaoyu find a yard for you outside and move out, and Xu'er should also be enlightened, and you can put it in your mother's place. If the tide is big, I can take it with me on the road, and I will also follow the long experience. If you think it's too hard to take care of Xi'er, it's better to put it with your mother. ”

The more detailed and considerate he explained here, the more sad the ** grandmother cried, and only made the second master anxious: "If you are sad about the horse farm." Jiu'er, as long as she has the horse farm in Xiaoyanling as a dowry, she will give you some of the rest on time. I see that you don't know how to raise horses, there is Xue Shizi on Jiu'er's side, and ordinary people don't dare to come over to provoke. Jiu'er gave me a lot of silver, let's pick a few shops in the city, so much input is enough for your rouge gouache. ”

He looked at the ** milk who was crying bitterly, and wondered in his heart: "On weekdays, she always envy Wanyin for marrying a century-old family, and Haoran is a person who reads poetry and books." Only she is just a white ding when she goes out and walks around, and even in this mansion, she has no five brothers and sisters. The six siblings are decent. It's just that it's too late for me to go to school at this time, and last month I heard that the saint was going to send someone to the sea, so I finally asked for this errand. Relying on the prestige of the sixth and fifth brothers, he received five grades at once. Everyone else's eyes are shining with jealousy, why is she still not happy?"

He was sweating profusely and hurriedly tossing and turning, and finally calmed her down, and said with a milk pump: "The knife and gun have no eyes, I heard that the sixth brother was seriously injured in the enemy a few days ago, and he has already gone home to recuperate." He was not yet thirty, and he was already thinking of a way out. At your age, why do you want to be a guard to block knives and guns? ”

The second master saw that she was worried about herself, so she laughed: "Don't worry, there are thousands of soldiers who go together, and I will help subdue those people." ”

The next day, Xue Shizi came to see the house again with hope. The courtyard went around, and it was not surprising that I didn't see Xiaoyu, but those craftsmen had already removed the windows of the main house and the side room, and the others stopped their work and were busy making window frames inlaid with medicinal jade.

Xue Shizi was very unhappy when he saw it, and went to Xia Mansion angrily to find Xiaoyu's theory. Seeing that it was him, the little maid on the side door of the Xia Mansion replied with a smile: "It turned out to be the prince of the world, and the girl is not in the house." Our second master has a horse farm in Xiaoyanling, saying that it was given to the girl as a dowry, and the girl was free today, so she went over to take a look. ”

Xue Shizi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Why don't I know about this?"

The little guy couldn't help but look at him again, and said with a smile: "This is a small one, but I can't answer it." Why don't you wait for the girl to come back and ask her?"

Xue Shizi's eyes narrowed, and the look of the little guy was not very good, and the little guy was neither angry nor scared when he saw it, and said with a smile: "Lord Shizi, you have the kung fu to compete with me, it is better to hurry up and go to meet the girl." The slave looked at the girl when she came back yesterday, and her face was not very good. What did you say to your brother last time: 'Disturb the marriage, give it to Xie Yi!' This matter, our girl is still uncomfortable. ”

Xue Shizi was a little stunned when he heard this, and said, "When will Miss Xia come back?"

Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Xiaoyanling is not too far, if I say, it will only be three or five days." ”

Xue Shizi couldn't, so he had to quit his little house and go to the palace, thinking secretly in his heart: "The sage originally handed over the horse farm to the second master, and now the second master has given it to Xiaoyu, and the sage doesn't know if he can agree?"

Xue Yu entered the Jinshen Palace, and when he heard the joy, he smiled and said, "Lord Shizi, you came just in time, and the sage is asking me to send someone to find you." ”

The saint was very happy because of Zuo Concubine's pregnancy these days, and began to pamper Fang Meiren again, and when he saw Xue Yu coming in, he beckoned very kindly: "You came just in time, I will go to the horse farm in Xiaoyanling in two days, you can go with me." Xia Yanwen asked me for instructions and wanted to hand over this horse farm to Miss Xia to manage, what do you think?"

Xue Yu was a little unhappy in her heart: "She is a woman, doing such a business, if she was in good health before......

The saint was not annoyed, and looked at him and smiled secretly.

Xue Yu couldn't help but ask again: "Your Majesty, second brother, what should he do?"

The sage leaned back in his chair and said with a smile: "He quit, even the horse farms in Yanbei and Northwest have been given to Miss Xia as a dowry." ”

As he spoke, he threw another fold to Xue Yu and said: "General Xia rushed to the aid of General Lang a few days ago, and was seriously injured when he resisted the enemy. ”

Xue Yu sighed and said, "The last time he raided Zhehe's tribe, he was injured in the leg, and he didn't ride a horse very neatly at that time. This will hurt his shoulder again, but I'm afraid it's really not good, alas, their family is of high grade in his family, if he retires, this family is only afraid that it will be difficult to interact with people in Beijing. ”

The saint naturally didn't care about their family interactions, thought about it and said, "At this time, the border is peaceful. ”

Xue Yu was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was tense, and he looked very worried.

Xiaoyu sat in the carriage for most of the day, and when it was far away from the capital, she stopped the carriage and slowly climbed out of it. She wore a satin arrow sleeve with dark color trim and light gold multicolored bamboo leaf auspicious patterns, and squinted after kicking, looking up at the lush Xiaoyanling not far away.

The terrain of Xiaoyanling is gentle, with few trees and many meadows, which is very rare in the mountains in the south, because it is the place where Yannan Mountain originated, and the undulating terrain is very suitable for raising horses.

Luo Twelve waited on the side of the road, saw her come out and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and knelt down on one knee with a smile: "Welcome lady." ”

Xiaoyu saw that it was him, and also laughed: "What's the matter?

Luo Twelve got up and took Wulai and said, "The second master used a lot of our people at the beginning, his people were withdrawn, and the ones who were added in were all in Yanbei Racecourse, but they were very decent in a few days." ”

Xiaoyu took the reins and slowly lifted her breath, then carried the saddle and got on the horse, looking at Luo Twelve with her chin on one side, and turning the horse's head around on the other, then she looked at Wen Niang and the others and said loudly: "Which one arrives first, reward a good sword." Before the words fell, she had already rushed out first. Several of the close-fitting maids in the back were wearing soap-colored arrow sleeves, and when they saw her like this, they couldn't help but be angry and bloody, and they were so competitive that they beat their horses to keep up. The cicada shrimp couldn't help but shout loudly: "The girl is cheating." ”

Xiaoyu turned around and pointed and said with a smile: "It's still called a girl, the cicada shrimp is out!"

Wen Niang immediately took the opportunity to rush to the front, and when Xiaoyu saw this, she hurriedly turned around and crouched on the horse's back, not daring to be careless. The water tiger couldn't help but fight the horse desperately when he saw it, and immediately after, the cicada shrimp couldn't help but have some lack of interest because they were already out, but when they saw them like this, they couldn't help but have high morale, and urged the horse to catch up. After a while, the fan-shaped line slowly turned into a long line.

Soon the water tiger rushed to the front beyond Xiaoyu, and Xiaohong did not show weakness and chased after him. Wen Niang looked at Xiaoyu and thought, "These people have finally been trained, I don't know what will happen when it comes to facing the enemy?"

Xiaoyu ran in the middle, seeing that she was almost to Zhuangzi, she slowed down, Xiaohong glanced back, hesitated for a moment and slowed down, and protected her with cicada shrimp. When she arrived at Zhuangzi, Wen Niang looked at the little girls gathered in front of the Zhuang, and asked loudly, "Which one won?" (To be continued.) )
