CHAPTER XXIX

Wei Nan seriously turned his head to look at the feather arrow that hit the bull's-eye, then turned his head again, and carefully looked at Shen Ruyu, who was wearing a wide robe with big sleeves, a beautiful robe, a gentle and kind smile, and looked non-lethal, "...... I don't believe it! He affirmed, "You must have been a blind cat who ran into a dead mouse and shot it by luck!" ”

Shen Ruyu didn't need to prove himself here, and when he heard him say this, he smiled and nodded indifferently, and put the bow and arrow back in its place, "Hmm...... You have a point, too. ”

But her "bloodless" and "soft" attitude obviously made Wei Nan even more disdainful, he lowered his head and picked up the bow and arrow that Shen Ruyu had just put down, turned to face the target, and shot with the bow unequivocally.

practiced bows and arrows with Shen Ruyu because of the difference between the nine arts of the ladies, whether it was her swordsmanship or archery, they all paid attention to neutrality and peace, which was more like a kind of etiquette, and the bow and arrow in Wei Nan's hand were obviously murderous weapons.

His feather arrow was violently β–‘β–‘ into the red heart of the target, and the force actually made the entire target shake slightly.

Such a vigorous posture made Shen Ruyu a little dazzling, and she suddenly remembered that when she accompanied the queen to walk in the palace, once when she saw Li Cong on the riding shooting range, he was always dressed in red, and his brilliance was scorching, and he was also so awe-inspiring, and then turned his head and raised his eyebrows with an extremely dazzling smile.

That scene is really a rare beauty.

Shen Ruyu has always liked beautiful things, so while missing the original beauty, she smiled and applauded, and praised: "Good skills!" ”

Hearing her cheers behind him, Wei Nan couldn't help but turn his head to look at her, just in front of Shen Ruyu's smiling gaze, he seemed to feel that Shen Ruyu's smile was indeed a sincere appreciation of his archery skills, so the young man showed an expression similar to embarrassment for the first time, but he didn't want to be seen, so he turned his head back again, trying to continue to maintain the attitude that was invincible just now, "That, that's!" ”

β€” but his tone was inevitably much softer.

When Wei Nan grabbed the bow and arrow and turned around, he looked at Shen Ruyu for a while, and then said a little awkwardly, "You are different from other scholars. ”

Shen Ruyu tilted her head and asked curiously, "What's the difference?" ”

Hearing her ask this rhetorically, Wei Nan frowned and was silent for a while, as if he was seriously comparing them one by one, and then said: "You praise me for my good skills, but others won't say that, they dislike men using weapons - my mother often says that boys fight and kill every day is not good, and no women want it in the future." ”

No matter how many times she heard it, Shen Ruyu still felt that this statement was quite funny, she sighed slightly and asked, "...... What else? ”

"The women on the hill always laugh at me, too." As if he felt that it was understandable, Wei Nan continued with a breathless breath, "I always called me 'Little Tiger' when I was a child, and I was called 'Male Tiger' when I grew up. ”

"And those who read," he seemed to meet very few people who could make him complain completely, so he couldn't stop talking, "when they were tied up, they were more frightened than the other, and I heard my sister say that even if they kneel down and beg for mercy at the bottom of the mountain." As a result, my mother talked to them in a good voice, and they were fine, and suddenly their eyes were above the top, and they couldn't look down on them here, or they couldn't look down on them there, and their mouths were either sarcastic or sarcastic, and there was not a word of kindness," the more he spoke, the more angry he became, and the hand holding the bow and arrow became more and more forceful, until the joints were white, "with a look of disgust, as if walking on the ground with us, the soles of the feet were itchy." I really thought I was something! ”

"I don't think it's good to be a reader anyway, but my mother is determined to find me a reader." At the end of the sentence, he angrily put the bow and arrow in his hand back to its original place. "As a result, I don't want to post it upside down."

"Yes," Shen Ruyu thought about it, it was indeed quite humiliating, no wonder Wei Nan's attitude towards her was so bad, probably enough of the so-called "scholar". "In fact, what others say is good may not be suitable for you, and what others are not optimistic about may not be so bad. This kind of thing is like a person drinking water, knowing whether it is warm or cold, whether it is suitable or not, whether it likes it or not, what can other people know except the person concerned? ”

"However, why is your mother so ......" Shen Ruyu paused, "Obsessed with reading?" ”

You must know that in this era, the imperial examination system has not been perfected, and those who can read and hyphenate do not dare to say all, but there must be nine out of ten, all of whom should be born in the nobility, or side branches, or branch lines, even if some of them look down-and-out and are no different from commoners, but they can have a relationship with those few clans.

Such a person, no matter how frightened he was when he was robbed, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, when he heard that he was going to be forced to marry the son of a bandit leader, he immediately expressed his anger at being greatly insulted, and Shen Ruyu was not incomprehensible.

…… Because it's simply impossible to do.

It is inconceivable for a big family to marry with ordinary people, and a thief snatched them to the mountains and asked them to marry a sinner who is more than a good citizen?

I'm afraid that this request is even more difficult to accept than letting them die.

"Then those scholars ......" It is pointless to discuss this at the moment, although Shen Ruyu can understand these people, but in front of Wei Nan, the explanation obviously seems too ununderstanding of the atmosphere, so she tentatively asked another more important question, "They were all killed?" ”

"Nope." Wei Nan was still immersed in dissatisfaction with those scholars, and replied with an unhappy face, "My mother doesn't kill scholars, aren't they noble and noble?" I drove them all to the backyard to do some chopping wood and other heavy lifting. ”

"Let them do it all?" Shen Ruyu looked a little surprised and asked, "How many of them are there?" ”

Wei Nan replied unguardedly, "About seven or eight, all of them are so stupid that they can't even chop firewood." ”

Shen Ruyu seemed to understand him very well and smiled, "Scholars, most of them are actually literate, and they can't pick up their shoulders or hands." ”

The scholars who were arrested because they were in a hurry were obviously not many servants to follow and take care of the side branches of the family.

Although most of these people have a very famous surname, the family environment allows them to go to the clan to read and break words, but there is certainly no condition for them to learn the royal shooting in the nine arts of ladies, of course, they are all "semi-finished products" that cannot be picked up on the shoulders - semi-finished products can only be called readers, and finished products are qualified to be called ladies.

Shen Ruyu, Shen Ruzhuo, Wang Zijun, Cui Wenjun and other family descendants can barely be regarded as "finished products".

But obviously, Aunt Wei also understands this kind of "finished product", in the case of a thief, if she wants to form a marriage relationship, it is really too ambitious, and even the emperor may not be able to let these gate lords nod their heads in the marriage relationship, so after knowing that she is Shen Ruyu, she never mentioned the matter of recruiting a daughter-in-law for Wei Nan, and was only ready to send her down the mountain respectfully.

"And it's easy to die." Shen Ruyu was thinking about it, Wei Nan suddenly said such a sentence without holding back, this kind of straightforwardness, which made her, who was used to speaking tactfully, stunned for a moment.

Wei Nan didn't seem to realize that there was something wrong with his directness, he walked past Shen Ruyu and walked towards the shade of the tree in the corner of the Yanwu Hall, where there were several huge stones, which seemed to be placed specifically for people to sit down and rest.

Shen Ruyu hesitated for a moment, followed and walked over, sitting on the stone beside him.

Seeing her coming over, Wei Nan was a little happy, but he just glanced at her, and then he turned his gaze back to the front and continued, "My father...... It seems to be the young master in the family of the scholar. ”

Shen Ruyu guessed as soon as she heard it, "...... Your mother robbed him? ”

Wei Nan turned his head to look at her in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

Shen Ruyu: "...... Because I'm smart. ”

Listening to her self-complaining like a cold joke, Wei Nan smiled for the first time since they met, and this young man, who had always seemed very unruly, laughed, but he was still very soft, "Yes." My mother treats you better than all the scholars, so you must be the smartest of them all. ”

But before Shen Ruyu could answer, he turned his head a little shyly and shifted the topic, "...... Actually, it wasn't my mother who robbed it. It was my mother's mother who robbed it. ”

"Listen to my mother, we didn't live here. My mother's mother used to be a famous mountain king in another place, in troubled times, there was a family fled in a hurry, there were many servants, my grandmother took people to hide in the mountains and forests on the side, ready to let them go, who knew that suddenly a team of routs who did not know which force rushed over, my father fled into the mountains and forests by mistake, and was taken back by my grandmother, and promised my mother. ”

"Listening to my mother, my father was always very unhappy at first, and refused to have sex with him, and my mother did not force him, and took him to find his own family, but the other party said that he had lost his temper, and their family could not afford to lose this person, and he had already died in the chaos halfway. My mother took him back again, lived together, and then had me. But my father's health never seemed to be good, and he died when I was three or four years old. ”

"My mother actually didn't have the idea of wanting me to marry a scholar at first, but my father told her before he died that he was unwilling to let his child marry a wild woman in a mountain village, and he said that I deserve the best person, otherwise he would not be blind when he dies, and my mother has always wanted to fulfill his last wish."

He looked ahead for a moment before sighing, "But, even my mother knows itβ€”it's impossible." ”

"Although I haven't read any books, I still know that Shishu is not married in these years. My dad was not reconciled...... It's because, if he hadn't married my mother, with his identity, the person he married must have been very noble, and then their children would probably not be like me," his eyes looked into the distance with a foggy mind, thinking of another future, but his face couldn't help but show a little loneliness, "but it will be a good person like you." ”

Shen Ruyu was silent with him for a long time before sighing faintly, "...... Lady of the Queen. ”

Wei Nan suddenly came back to his senses, and looked at her with wide eyes in surprise, "What, what do you mean?" ”

Shen Ruyu smiled at him, "...... You're a good guy. ”

It's just that......

But what a thief.
