Dressed in a bright red riding suit, Ning Xi came to the stable and saw the man at a glance. He stood in the stable, and when he saw her from afar, he greeted her with joy: "Come quickly!" ”

She walked up to his side, looked up at his face, and said with a smile: "The third young master is so interested!" ”

"Didn't I tell you to call me by name?" He smiled, pointed to the stable, and said, "If Xi'er is willing to go with me, pick a horse!"

Ning Xi glanced in the direction he pointed and said, "Then I'm welcome!" And he ran to the stable. I've been busy getting married for the past few months, and I haven't ridden a horse for a long time.

The stables are not very big. Ning Xi turned, stopped in front of a snow-white horse, looked at it, and asked tentatively, "How is this one?" ”

Ah Hao hurriedly walked over and said cautiously: "Fujin, this horse ......"

"It's called Feng'er," Yu Rui gestured to Hao, "You'll be its owner from now on." ”

Ning Xi saw the interaction between their master and servant, and was a little embarrassed: "Forget it, third young master, I still don't want to take away your love." I'll pick another one! ”

Yu Rui walked over, stuffed the reins that tied the wind to her hand, close to her ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Your people are all mine, how can I be reluctant to give up a horse?" You say yes, right? Ning Xi's face turned red, and he hurriedly pulled out the horse with his head down, and then rode away quickly.

Yu Rui also took out a horse and shouted, "Wait for me!" As he spoke, he stepped onto his horse and chased after Ning Xi's departing back.

On the outskirts, the grass covered the ground deep into the horse's hooves. The sound of horses' hooves and the wind echoed in the empty valley. In the quiet valley, there were only two of them. Leaving aside all kinds of unhappiness and shyness, the atmosphere of the here and now makes people feel an unprecedented lightness in their hearts.

Yu Rui sat on the horse, looked at Ning Xi, who was next to him but a little distance away from him, and finally couldn't help but speak: "Hey, you've been running for so long, do you really plan to stop talking to me all the time?" ”

Ning Xi turned his head and asked, "Then what do you want to say, Third Young Master?" ”

"It's wrong again," Yu Rui said with a smile, "Call me Yu Rui." ”

"Uh...... Yu Rui. Ning Xi replied, but he didn't know what to say.

"You're not angry, are you?" Yu Rui smiled, "Do you want to come down and rest for a while?" ”

"I'm not angry, come down!" As she spoke, she stepped off her horse.

Yu Rui also dismounted, drove the horse to the side to graze, lay down on the grass himself, and motioned for Ning Xi to come to him.

Ning Xi walked over and sat down four or five feet away from Yu Rui. Yu Rui looked at her and said with a smile: "Are you so reluctant to get close to me?" ”

Ning Xi lowered his head and muttered, "There is a difference between men and women!" Seeing Yu Rui staring at herself thoughtfully, she hurriedly explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just not used to having a man around me." Oh, no, no, no, it's just that I don't know you well yet, and I can't fully accept you for a while. Maybe it won't be the same in the future. ”

Yu Rui restrained his smile and said, "If you marry the second young master, will you still not be able to accept it?" ”

Ning Xi saw that Yu Rui had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "You mean this? If it were really like you say, I wouldn't have interceded with Amma. She paused, then continued, "Besides, for me, you're no different from him, I haven't seen him before. "I only know the people who have a round house with me. She said silently in her heart, of course, she didn't say the words that made her blush.

Yu Rui sighed: "I'm no different from him?" If these words are heard by the people in the house, I am afraid that it will be another right and wrong. Hearing this, Ning Xi lowered his head and fiddled with the blades of grass in his hands. Before getting married, she was the eldest daughter of the palace's favored concubine, and she may not be able to understand Yu Rui's feelings as a concubine. She thought of her sister-in-law, Hui'er. On weekdays, she thinks that her mother is her mother's maid and takes good care of Hui'er. I don't know if she is not in the past few days, whether she is doing well, whether she has been bullied by several other aunts. When I have a firm foothold in the Metropolitan Mansion, I will definitely bring her to live for a few days.

Yu Rui no longer looked at her, and continued to take care of himself: "Because of my mother's low status, my status in the mansion is far inferior to that of the second young master. He can do it, but I can't. Since I was a child, my mother has taught me to hide and not to let my edge overshadow the second young master. I can not learn and be incompetent, but I can't be talented and ambitious, she said that this is the way to survive for the concubine. My eldest brother is an example of this. He is diligent and motivated, but he is not forced abroad by that Chang Fujin. It's been four years, and there's been no news at all. In this kind of world, I'm afraid that there will be more than one bad luck......"

Ning Xi was quite emotional and asked, "I heard that he left on the day my sister-in-law married into the house." Sister-in-law's life must be very difficult, right? ”

"As you can imagine, it shouldn't be much better than me!" Yu Rui sighed, "I heard people say that there is basically no one to go there. It's appropriate for you to go to her often. Try not to go to the women of the second young master, it is said that they are not easy to mess with, and they are jealous every day. Even if it's the one you married on the same day, it's best to have less contact. ”

"I know that your enemy is naturally my enemy now, and I will have less contact." Ning Xi said, "Although I am a concubine, I have also been in contact with several aunts and younger siblings in the palace. My mother is more strict in governing the family, she said, this is the way of survival of the wife, so it is inevitable that the younger siblings will be wronged. She looked at Yu Rui lying on the ground and moved closer to him, but there were still about two feet away. After sitting down, she added, "But since I am married to you, I will naturally help you." However, you have to be respectful to me, and don't let the concubine bully me! ”

Yu Rui chuckled, approached her, and pulled her to lie down beside him. He said softly: "If you avoid me again, I will bring a concubine back, and when the Gege Mansion is repaired, I will let her live in it." ”

"You dare!" Ning Xi turned her head, but she suddenly met Yu Rui's burning gaze, and she hurriedly dodged. Yu Rui also realized the gaffe just now, so he put away his gaze. Both men were silent.

This time, the silence didn't last long. The two quickly started talking again. Ning Xi talked about her grandmother, her younger brother Wangfu Shizi, and her sister-in-law Hui'er, who was on good terms with her. And Yu Rui talked about his mother, who has always accompanied him on the horse and the days when he often rode the wind here to release. They chatted until the setting sun fell on the meadow.
