Under the cloudless sky, outside the dense and vast woods, there is a camp full of countless tents of all sizes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the afternoon, on the open ground on the outskirts of the camp, Xia Shuanghan, who had arrived at his destination with the large army at three o'clock, took Hongyun and made peace with Xie Zhuoting and Zhang Yunyan as agreed.

Since the day of August 18, Xie Zhuoting, who was beaten, somehow relied on the heroine Xia Shuanghan in his mind. When he was on the way to hunt, he caught up with the convoy behind him, completely ignoring Su Yixing's unfriendly eyes, and insisted on putting forward a request to Xia Shuanghan, "When I arrive at the destination, I must compare the bow horse with you".

So, on the first day of encamping here, relieving the fatigue of the journey, and then not hunting, Xia Shuanghan walked to Zhang Yunyan, who came to watch the battle, with a bow and arrows on his back.

After briefly exchanging words with Zhang Yunyan such as "Are you tired on the road", Xia Shuanghan turned to Xie Zhuoting, who was energetic and energetic. "Tell me, how do you want to compare this bow horse?"

"I'm going to compete with you!" The ruddy-complexed young man puffed out his chest and said proudly: "Two days ago, I just mastered a unique skill, and I want to show you!" ”

"Really? Then you should show your hand quickly! ”

Xia Shuanghan's words with a light smile of encouragement made Xie Zhuoting feel full of energy, so he turned over and quickly performed the skills he had only mastered in recent days.

For Xia Shuanghan, who has been taught riding by his nomadic mother since he was a child, and has lived outside the customs for nearly four years in his past and present lives, Xie Zhuoting's riding skills are basically not difficult.

Jumping over tree stumps and stones, this is indeed very powerful for many young masters in Beijing who were born in scholarly families and had to lead horses in front of them when riding horses. But in Xia Shuanghan's eyes, driving the horse over obstacles is just the basics of the basics. So, when Xie Zhuoting came back from a lap, although he saw an approving look on Xia Shuanghan's face, he didn't find a hint of surprise.

"What do you mean, I think I'm so confident that my riding skills are much better than mine? Now it's your turn, I'm going to see how good you are! Xie Zhuoting's aggrieved expression of doing something that he thought was great, but he was not praised by his elders, made Xia Shuanghan want to laugh.

Then, Xia Shuanghan, who shook his head with a smile and turned over on his horse, held an eye-opening mentality for young people who had never been outside the customs, and showed his skills without reservation.

On the back of the galloping horse, one moment she hung on the side of the saddle facing up, and the summer frost and cold that was covered by the horse's body also created the illusion that there was no one on the saddle to the onlookers, and the next moment, she was as light as a swallow on the ground, and she was like a fluttering butterfly, jumping and turning to this side of the saddle.

The red cloud flew around in a circle, tossing and turning in the saddle, and Xia Shuanghan, who jumped up and down, skillfully controlled the balance of his body, and completed one action after another that made the onlookers jaw-dropping.

"This ...... Where did you learn all this? At the moment when Xia Shuanghan turned over and dismounted, raised his hand to wipe the fine sweat from the corners of his forehead, Xie Zhuoting, who hurriedly ran forward, had the big words "good worship" in his bright eyes.

"Is it a nation on horseback that is in vain? Xie Zhuoting, you know, I think when I was more than two years old, my mother put me in a soft-lined basket and hung it on the saddle to take me on a trip! ”

“...... Two years old? Is that your mother's mother? Xie Zhuoting, who couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard Xia Shuanghan's remarks, couldn't believe that there was such a mother in this world.

"Can you stop being so uncommon and weird? The medicine farmer who lives in the mountains has to go up the mountain to collect medicine and take care of the children, so he can't spare extra hands, doesn't he also stuff the children in the medicine baskets? Glancing at the little young master who grew up in brocade clothes and jade food next to him, Xia Shuanghan silently added in his heart: "Your mother is not your own mother, your mother's cultivation method for you is simply not to raise you crookedly and disabled!" ”

"How is it, Young Master of the Xie family, do you still have the confidence to compare this bow and arrow?" Lianbu moved lightly to Zhang Yunyan, who walked to Xia Shuanghan's side, and said with a light smile under the slightly fluttering veil: "Otherwise, don't make a move, just let Shuang Hanlu give us long eyes with one hand!" ”

"I'm not good at archery." While recalling the archery competition that Lu Shaoyun participated in at the celebration last September, Xia Shuanghan, who humbly shook his hand, said: "I'm okay with fixed shooting, but I can't do it if I switch to riding and running shooting." ”

"Then let's just pick the one you are proficient in, and shoot it at a fixed rate." With his archery ability to shoot fifty arrows to hit one arrow, Xie Zhuoting thought that he really had nothing to fault with. So, having picked a stout tree on the periphery of the woods and marked it, he excitedly rubbed his hands away and waited for a feast for his eyes.

With his bow and arrows, he retreated to a hundred steps away and aimed at the bullseye on the tree, and with the ups and downs of his breathing, he let go of the feather arrow in his hand. Pierced through the Yang in 100 steps, hit the bull's-eye, and then shot the second arrow, which accurately hit the tail of the first arrow.

"Good...... That's amazing! Dumbfounded, he looked at Xie Zhuoting, who was slashed by the second arrow straight from the tail to the head, and ran to Xia Shuanghan's side, with a light of excitement on his face, he raised his head slightly and asked: "If I want to have such archery, how many years will I need to practice?" ”

"It doesn't have to be, it depends on talent and diligence. But ......" raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the young man who looked a little depressed because he didn't get a definite answer, Xia Shuanghan made up for it: "As the so-called emperor pays off, the iron pestle can still be sharpened into an embroidery needle, as long as you persevere and practice diligently, there is nothing that cannot be done." ”

At this time, Xia Shuanghan would not have thought of it at all, but after getting acquainted with Xie Zhuoting for just half a month, she made this young man change in essence, and finally prompted him to pass the layers of assessment and become a martial artist. But of course, that's all for later.

The clouds sent by the autumn wind blocked the scorching sun, and after being exposed to the summer frost and cold outdoors for a long time, after turning back to the tent and getting the tools for brushing the horses, she led the red cloud to a cool river where she had been in her previous life.

She took off her shoes and socks and rested on a rock on the shore, and took the red cloud into the summer frost in the small river where the water level had just reached her knees, and took care of her horse carefully.

The gurgling river, the rustling branches, on the banks of this small river that would never be infested with ferocious beasts, listening to the chirping of birds, enjoying the rare tranquility and tranquility of the summer frost and cold, did not notice that in the woods downwind of her, Su Yixing, with a soft smile, was staring at her side face attentively.

"If you grasp it too tightly, it will make the other party breathless", this truth, Su Yixing, who understands that leaving some space for his lover is the right way to get along, is very clear. Therefore, even though he has never been able to win the heart of a beautiful woman, he can't wait to shrink Xia Shuanghan and carry it in his pocket all the time, but Su Yixing, who knows that doing so will only backfire and push her farther and farther, finally decided with difficulty to provide Xia Shuanghan with some freedom.

On the day the team arrived at the destination, although he was slightly dissatisfied with Xia Shuanghan's behavior of running to the appointment without resting, Su Yixing, who stayed with Xia Shuanghan almost all the time on the way, had already seen that the intimacy of the past few days had reached the limit that Xia Shuanghan could bear. Therefore, Su Yixing, who knew that letting her go out for a walk would obviously help improve her mood, finally gave up her plan to stop her.

On the edge of the open field on the periphery of the camp, Su Yixing, who was silently watching Xia Shuanghan flying on the horse, kept a distance not far away, and there was joy and pride in his heart: Such a smart, fresh, and heroic woman is my wife, what can make me happier than this in this world?

Seeing that Xia Shuanghan found fun in horseback riding and archery, and regained his cheerful mood little by little, Su Yixing felt more and more that it was not wrong for him to choose to give his sweetheart some freedom. No, I played with Xie Zhuoting and Zhang Yunyan and they came back to Xia Shuanghan, didn't they smile and say to him, "I want to go to the small river in the eastern district to bathe Hongyun, and I will come back in an hour and a half at most, don't you worry"?

"Haven't you been here before? So how do you know that there are no ferocious beasts in the East End and that there is a small river there? ”

"Of course, it's because Tingxuan brought me here in my previous life!" While packing up the equipment for brushing horses, Xia Shuanghan, who silently answered in his heart, said: "I just asked someone outside, what's wrong?" ”

"No, it's nothing, pay attention to safety, go early and come back early!"

"Okay, I got it."

Watching Xia Shuanghan walk out of the tent with a small basket equipped with useful utensils, Su Yixing, who didn't want to be separated from her and didn't want to disturb her at the same time, finally chose to quietly follow after changing into an inconspicuous robe.

In the silent grove, Su Yixing, who had stretched the distance far enough to ensure that he would never be discovered by Xia Shuanghan, soon followed his sweetheart to the empty river. It's just that just as he was quietly staring at Xia Shuanghan sitting on the bank of the river, the arrival of a person ruined his good mood.

With one hand on his cheek and his elbow on his knee, Xia Shuanghan was originally sitting on a stone warmed by the sun, looking at the sparkling water in a daze. Upwind, the sound of footsteps brought by the breeze suddenly brought her back to her senses.

"Tingxuan, why are you here?"

"Frost, why are you here?"

The moment they saw each other, Xia Shuanghan and Lu Shaoyun, who asked the same question in unison, both had a look of surprise on their faces. Then, the two of them, who smiled at each other, replied at the same time with a clear heart: "It's okay on your hands, so come and take a walk." ”

Su Yixing, who was hidden in the woods downwind, confirmed the fact that Xia Shuanghan did not hide it from him and made an appointment with Lu Shaoyun to meet here through two sentences of dialogue that came with the wind. However, even if he knew that the meeting in front of him was just a coincidence, Su Yixing, who watched Lu Shaoyun naturally sit on another rock next to Xia Shuanghan, was still very unhappy: he didn't like the heart-to-heart between the two of them, and he didn't like it very much!

Xia Shuanghan and Lu Shaoyun, who were sitting side by side on the rocks by the river, didn't notice Su Yixing in the woods, they were just chatting and talking.

"If we were married now, Baliya, who was going to get married, would be able to live in our house for the time being."

Recalling the end of May, when he went to the caravan camp outside the South City Gate to bid farewell to Hazru and others, Xia Shuanghan, who regretted that he couldn't do more for his friends who were preparing to marry, sighed and said: "Before getting married, Baliya couldn't live in Xiran, and there were only two men in my family, my father and Chaoyang, which were not suitable for her to live in, and the Xiangyang Mansion was even more unsuitable for her to come over, and she could only go to rent a small courtyard for a long time, this is not a waste of money!" ”

"I said, how come your habit of feeling your own pain when you see others spending money in vain has never changed!" Lu Shaoyun, who pursed his lips and smiled, teased: "The money that Hazlubo handed over before he left Beijing, after deducting the part of Xiran, didn't the share that belonged to me already exist with you?" In addition, I recently heard that your paintings are still selling very well, why do you still look very short of money! ”

"I was scared of your mother and your sister-in-law in my last life!" Speaking of this, Xia Shuanghan couldn't help but puff out his cheeks in anger.

"When we lived together in the last life, you were a person with little expenses, and my expenses were not large. I can't wear clothes in the needlework room, and I can't use rouge, gouache, jewelry, or anything, but why do we have to pay as much money to the public school every month as others? After paying a month's worth of silver, we can live by ourselves for three months, but now I think about it, I still have pain! ”

"I know you're angry about this, so I haven't been that wronged boss in my life!"

Glancing at the sweetheart next to him who was always talking about money issues, Lu Shaoyun, who wanted to relax her, explained: "Originally, after my grandfather grounded my mother, he planned to directly hand over the accounts and money to my sister-in-law, but I really had enough of her losses in my previous life, so I took my grandfather and divided the power of the family into two and handed them over to my aunt and my sister-in-law respectively. ”

"Yes, yes, this is a good job."

Xia Shuanghan, who smiled after hearing Lu Shaoyun's explanation, said: "Let these women who want to guard and steal go dog eat dog!" Anyway, on the whole, as long as we grasp the two reasons of 'your sister-in-law will be the mistress of the inner house in the future, and it is understandable to come up to take over now' and 'your sister-in-law is still inexperienced for the time being, and needs your aunt's assistance', and force them to be the joint housekeeper, and no one can subdue the two of them, it is impossible to hit the abacus on your head in the process of taking care of yourself. ”

"So you're relieved now, aren't you?" Glancing at Xia Shuanghan, who was silly beside him, Lu Shaoyun, who was slightly curious in his heart, wondered: "I heard that now Princess Xiangyang has handed over all the accounts of the palace to you, and so much silver flows in and out of your hands every day, are you very happy about this?" ”

"Look at you, you're stupid, aren't you?" Under a pair of smiling eyes, Xia Shuanghan climbed up two white and tender lying silkworms, shook his right index finger and said: "No matter how many gold and silver mountains there are in Xiangyang Palace, it has nothing to do with me, they can neither give me a sense of belonging, nor give me a sense of happiness, when I settle accounts every day, I purely regard myself as a bookkeeper!" But the money you earn is different, the money you earn is equal to my money, and it can't be spent indiscriminately with a copper plate! ”

"I know, I know, what I earn is yours, what you earn is still yours, right?" Lu Shaoyun, who was amused by his sweetheart's appearance of money, said: "Your little treasury, I will help you collect it, and I will help you remember the accounts and everything else." When you get married, I'll give them all to you right away, okay? ”

"That's a lot better!"

The breeze blew, accompanied by the soft words of the summer frost and cold, and the sand on the shallows that had been dried by the sun. So, staring intently at Xia Shuanghan's smiling face, he was suddenly blinded by the grains of sand.

"Don't rub it, the more you rub it, the worse it gets." When Lu Shaoyun trembled his eyelashes and wanted to raise his hand to rub his eyes, he noticed his condition in time, and stretched out his hand to stop his actions that were not only ineffective, but also likely to aggravate the discomfort, and then said: "You wait, I brought a water bladder here, I'll get you some water to wash." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and walked to the saddle and saddlebag placed at the feet of the red cloud to fetch the water bladder of the summer frost, and one carelessly stepped on the mossy pebbles. Then, just when she screamed "oops" and was about to fall to the ground, Lu Shaoyun, who keenly identified Xia Shuanghan's location by listening to the sound, rushed to her side two steps after standing up, and took her into his arms, and willingly made a soft cushion for his sweetheart.

"Tingxuan, how are you? Didn't hit anything, did you? Xia Shuanghan, who knocked on his sweetheart's chest after falling, didn't care about the tip of his tongue that was bitten, so he just stretched out his hand directly, touched the back of Lu Shaoyun's head and said, "Does the back of the head hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt, I don't have anything." In his arms was the delicate body of his sweetheart who exuded a faint fragrance, and Lu Shaoyun, who was reluctant to end this intimate contact, raised his arm around Xia Shuanghan's waist and said, "Shuanghan, I have missed you so much in the past few months!" Can you just wait a while, you obediently lie on your stomach and don't move, let me hug you. ”

Xia Shuanghan, who was lying on Lu Shaoyun's chest, who was going to stand up immediately after confirming that his sweetheart was okay, was about to say "I want to abide by the agreement between me and Su Yixing", but when Lu Shaoyun, who was lying on his back, shed a drop of crystal tears because of the wind and sand in his eyes, Xia Shuanghan, who only felt a pain in his heart for a moment, couldn't help compromise.

"Okay then, I'll clock it out for a while." Xia Shuanghan, who obediently lay down and listened to Lu Shaoyun's heartbeat, "Bang Bang", said: "When your heart beats a hundred times, I'll stand up." ”

"A hundred? So short? Lu Shaoyun, who raised his other hand and gently stroked Xia Shuanghan's long hair draped behind his head, snorted with some dissatisfaction: "It just don't skip the count." ”

"What nonsense? If it doesn't jump, you'll die! Xia Shuanghan, who clenched his loose fist and gently knocked on Lu Shaoyun's shoulder, said: "If you die, won't you want me to be a widow for the rest of my life?" ”

"Okay, let it jump, let it jump!" Through a fork in the way, Lu Shaoyun, who successfully interfered with Xia Shuanghan's counting, had a tricky smile on his face. Then, I only heard him continue to pick a topic that interfered with Xia Shuanghan's counting: "Shuang Han, today is the first day we arrived at our destination, and you can't wait to come to this small river in the first afternoon, is it something in your previous life that you can't forget?" ”

"Lu Shaoyun!" suddenly remembered that in his previous life, because of Lu Shaoyun's bewitchment, Xia Shuanghan, who had done something shameful with him in the woods by this small river, blushed and struggled in an instant: "You let go!" You shameless guy, I really don't want to spend any more time with you! ”

"Lady, what are you ashamed of? In the last life, we can't count the number of times we have lived in Dunlun, since they are all old husbands and wives, then you can let go a little! ”

Wrapping his arms around the struggling Xia Shuanghan, Lu Shaoyun, who opened a pair of slightly reddened eyes, smiled evilly and said, "That's right, when we were here in the last life, what did I say?" Ah, I remember, I said that the stars that blink in the sky are all our witnesses, lady, do you remember? ”

"Lu Shaoyun! Don't say any more! Xia Shuanghan, who was extremely angry but couldn't struggle, gritted his teeth angrily, raised his hand to cover Lu Shaoyun's lips and said: "The last life is the last life, this life is this life, and I am still a yellow flower girl in this life!" Now that it's broad daylight and bright weather, you dare to pull me to talk about these things of men\huan\women\love, what about your cheeks? Did you let the dog gnaw on it? ”

"Then I'm really sorry for you! I've been gnawed by the dog, and you can kiss me regardless of your previous suspicions, how deep is your friendship with me? I don't even care about the same thing as a dog! ”

"You...... You ......" Xia Shuanghan, who was ashamed, angry and powerless, took a bite on the shoulder of Lu Shaoyun, who was laughing non-stop. But who knows, after biting down, her anger could not be vented, but it provoked Lu Shaoyun to laugh further.

"Lady, why are you so enthusiastic today? Don't worry, wait for your husband to take off his clothes! ”

"Lu Shaoyun!" Xia Shuanghan, who twisted his body with great effort, dragged the water bladder from the saddle bag placed not far away, and after pulling out the cork, he directly poured all the cool liquid on Lu Shaoyun's face, "You're angry with me, you can calm me down!" (To be continued.) )
