Chapter 135: Approaching the Truth

readx;

Although equestrianism is no longer a sport that only the aristocracy could afford to play, as it was in ancient Europe, it is also a sport that requires plenty of time and money. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Shi Hu had ridden a few horses before, but they were all ordinary cold-blooded horses, and he didn't pay attention to any rules, and he ran when he turned over.

It's different here, they are all precious warmblood breeds, pure bloodlines, as few as hundreds of thousands, as many as millions, very intelligent, and spiritual. Shihu took it seriously, including everything from clothing, English equestrian polo shirts, riding boots and coats.

Amanda brought a black steed and asked, "Have you had any experience before?" ”

"Horsebacked, but no formal training." Shi Hu told the truth that he didn't know what the difference was between a horse that specialized in training and an ordinary horse.

"It's better to learn it all over again." Amanda said.

There are many things to do about English horseback riding, from equipping the horse, water, mouth and bridles, etc., to how to quickly establish an understanding with an unfamiliar horse, which is the first step in riding.

After studying for half an hour, Shi Hu officially got on the horse.

The weight of the whole person is pressed on the horse's back, the upper body remains straight, the horse's head moves, but the training has made it adapt, Shi Hu touched the horse's belly with his boots, it took a step, and then pulled the reins, it obediently turned its head, Shi Hu was satisfied: "What an obedient horse." ”

Amanda nodded: "This is a performance of recognition, try to speed up the pace?" ”

The boots put a little more force on the horse's belly, and the horse walked briskly, very obediently...... In fact, these rigorously trained horses, as long as they are not in the wrong way, are too outrageous. It's quite receptive. Of course, it also depends on some luck, Shi Hu is going well now.

When you experience the joy of horseback riding, it becomes addictive. For about ten minutes on horseback, Shi Hu could occasionally let it run, a vast green meadow. Feeling the fresh breeze and breathing in the fresh air is a kind of freedom and a tacit understanding with living things.

ran to the far corner, and then turned back, and there were also people on the horse, Amanda and Sandra were all familiar with it. Whether it is the riding position, the way the horse is controlled, and the horse's response to commands, it is all excellent, and the movements are all smooth and natural.

Shi Hu admired. What he admired even more was Betyeva, who was heroic in her English equestrian costume, and the horses galloped at high speeds, hurdles, rounds, and sudden stops, and these dressage skills were carried out by the horses like soldiers who were forbidden to do so. It's really impressive.

"You're doing a great job, like those pro riders on TV." Shi Hu sincerely admired.

Beteyeva smiled: "It's purely amateur accumulation, if you young people can calm down and learn." Definitely better than me. ”

"It's not easy to learn well." Shi Hu honestly said that up to now he couldn't do anything but make the horse run, stop and turn.

"Patience will do it for you." "If you like the sport, you can stay longer. Add a bit of popularity to the place. ”

"Don't bother?" Shi Hu was polite.

Beteyeva shook her head: "You also saw it, I am a daughter." It's far away from the city, so friends who can have fun together come to the door. I can't ask for it. ”

"Then thank you Madame for your hospitality." Shi Hu smiled.

……

With a focus on leisure and vacation, this is a great place to be.

Everyone has a common pleasure: equestrianism. Even Shi Hu, a novice, is interested in all kinds of skills, he used to ride horses, but he didn't have such a high level of enthusiasm - cold-blooded horses are not smart enough, and now these precious warm-blooded horses are specially trained and human.

It's like if you teach it to cross a bar once, it will remember it next time. Equestrianism also tests the cooperation of people and animals, as a novice, Shi Hu has a new harvest every day, learned to walk slowly, mastered the skills of winding the barrel, and even boldly tried hurdles, which is very fulfilling!

They have been here for four days, and the group has a lot of fun discussing equestrianism, hobbies or careers. Amanda is even more childlike to play with Juliana, and in the afternoon, she will put up a parasol on the lawn, drink a cup of afternoon tea, and watch the people riding horses in the distance, which is very pleasant.

This is not? Juliana, who was still chattering a second ago, dozed off with him in her arms at this moment, and Shi Hu took her into his arms and asked her to sleep in a comfortable position...... Betyeva, who was across the table, looked at his actions and smiled: "You are very caring. She must be very dependent on you. ”

"Poor child, who doesn't love?" Shi Hu looked down at her, the appearance of a doll, and the milky voice of the voice, which was indeed very flattering.

Betyeva has a unique eye: "But your love comes from the heart. ”

Shi Hu smiled: "Maybe we have the same background experience, our biological parents are not around for various reasons, and life is destined to leave a trace of regrets." ”

"Mind talking about it?" Beteyeva was idle.

Shi Hu said casually: "There are no twists and turns in the story, I was brought up by my adoptive parents, I have been them since I can remember, life is calm and warm, the only strange thing is that I occasionally dream of the experience of being very young, I will see my biological parents, hear their conversations and exchanges." ”

Betyeva wondered: "Did you try to go over and look for clues to them?" ”

"I've tried." Shi Hudian's expression darkened, "But the result is not what I wanted, I would rather not know." ”

"Why?" Beteyeva was drawn to this topic.

Originally, Shi Hu didn't want to dig into this story anymore, he had completely let it go, but thinking that Beteyeva and his mother had worked together, he couldn't help but feel itchy...... In the end, he said: "She may not be a good person, and my father's death is also related to her." ”

"Do you have resentment and incomprehension?" Beteyeva could feel it.

"Hate can't be said, it's more incomprehensible." Shi Hu also saw it, "But it doesn't matter, knowing what the truth is, it doesn't help the past, it only brings pain." ”

"It's not necessarily a good thing to forget." Betyeva said.

"Yes." Shi Hu smiled and looked at her: "Madam, I want to take the liberty of asking a question." ”

Beteyeva nodded: "Please speak." ”

Natalia had told him not to ask around, it would get into trouble, but they had gotten along quite well lately, and Beteyeva must have known that Shi Hu knew the other side of herβ€”the incomplete side, but at least it had something to do with the black market gambling boats and the Holy Spirit Society, and he should be recognized.

Otherwise, Betyeva invited him to the door?

Thinking of this, Shi Hu spoke: "You know a man named 'Ulyana. Mikhailovna. Glinskaya's Lady? ”

Betyeva's eyes flashed with surprise, Rao was not shocked, and the moment she heard this name, she was also a little distracted.

After a few seconds, she asked, "How did you get that name?" ”

Shi Hu could feel her vigilance in an instant, so he told the truth: "I got the information from a friend, she ...... Probably my birth mother. ”

"Greenskaya?" Beteyeva seemed to be caught in a memory, and Shi Hu couldn't guess what was going on under her calm face, but she could feel a hint of discomfort.

"I'm ......," Betyeva hesitated, "and she used to be colleagues. ”

"What kind of person is she?" Shi Hu asked.

Beteyeva asked rhetorically: "How do you feel about her?" ”

"I don't know, it's strange, right? Their appearance appeared frequently in my dreams, and I was desperate to know the truth, but when I knew it, I no longer wanted to reveal it. "Shi Hu's feelings for his biological mother are very complicated, and he has not told anyone - except this time.

He felt that Beteyeva was someone he could talk to.

It's a pity that she is not, she shook her head: "She is a person with uncertain whereabouts and complicated thoughts, and she does not have firm beliefs, and she may not be able to bear the responsibility." ”

Shi Hu smiled awkwardly: "Sounds pretty bad." But, thank you, madam, for being honest I don't care about the past. ”

Betyeva asked in a low voice: "Do you want to see her?" ”

Shi Hu hesitated in his heart, but finally shook his head: "I feel like I am with her...... More like a stranger, I already have my own parents and relatives. I don't know how I face her, it's weird. If you ever see her again, pass on my best wishes to her. ”

Betyeva asked: "She abandoned you, don't you blame her?" ”

"I don't know." Shi Hu was a little messy, "But my childhood was not lonely, I had parents, she was just a dream that was not very good to me, and I paid more attention to reality." ”

Beteyeva listened quietly, and then said: "Although she made everything bad, but child, I know that she at least loves you very much. ”

Shi Hu squeezed out a smile: "That's a comfort to me." ”

……

Beteyeva didn't say much about the woman.

Perhaps the years in KGB were a black memory for her, and she didn't want to mention it again. Shi Hu didn't want to ask anymore, knowing that she was still alive and well. No matter how many memories she recalls, she is just a familiar stranger, and he prefers to look forward and grasp the present.

In the next few days, Shi Hu felt that Beteyeva's mood was not very good, although she still had a plain look, but her keen psychological sense could feel her irritability. Shi Hu was even a little apologetic, maybe it really brought her bad memories.

A few days later, Shi Hu and Sandra took their leave.

Shi Hu declined their retention: "It's extremely comfortable and relaxing to be a guest here with you, Madame, but it's a pity that we have to make some other plans." ”

Beteyeva nodded: "Come back when you have time later, you are always welcome." ”

"I will, ma'am." Shi Hu shook her hand.

As the two cars left the ranch and Betyeva watched them go away, Amanda put her arm on her shoulders and whispered, "Everything you need is ready." ”

"I know." Beteyeva's eyes were mixed.

"Could it be him?" Amanda asked, "It's been all these years." ”

The silent Beteyeva said for a long time: "I must restore the truth. (To be continued)
