Chapter 050: Riding a Ride Together
"I don't care, but you young lady definitely can't make a carriage." Xia Houyan spread his hands indifferently.
"You are bold! How do you talk to Miss! Xi'er got angry when she heard Xiahou Yan's tone. He is just a guard, and he dares to speak in that tone, let alone a young lady, even if he is much higher than him.
Xiahou Yan is usually used to being the master, and it is inevitable that he can't change his words, especially when he encounters this kind of thing that doesn't know the hearts of good people, he suddenly forgets his current identity. But when the words came out, Xiahou Yan had to silently touch his nose to hide his embarrassment.
"Miss, or you sit on my horse, and I'll be busy with you leading the horse." Liao Qi said when he saw the stitches.
He always had an inexplicable feeling in front of Xiahou Yan, feeling that the person next to him might disrupt all the plans. Now that Xi'er and Jian Ning obviously don't like Xiahou Yan very much, of course he wants to show himself and strive to gain their complete trust.
"Leading the horse?" Xiahou Yan just glanced at Liao Qi out of the corner of his eye, and snorted disdainfully, "Then it is estimated that it won't be there after noon." ”
"You two don't have to say anything." Jian Ning rested for a while, felt a little more comfortable, and looked at Liao Qi and Xiahou Yan, who were about to compete, Jian Ning suddenly spoke.
"You can ride horses here, and you're not the only ones who can carry me." As he spoke, he slowly stood up with Xi'er's support. looked at Su Tong, who had not spoken much, and said, "You should be able to ride a horse!" ”
Su Tong didn't expect Jian Ning to suddenly ask herself, and after being stunned for a moment, she hurriedly replied: "Yes, I have been studying since childhood." ”
"You can take me on horseback for the rest of the road." Jian Ning said simply, "You are always on guard, but you are a woman, in this case, this is the most suitable method." ”
"As for the two of you, let's do it yourself." Jian Ning said lightly when she walked past Xiahou Yan and Liao Qi.
Xiahou Yan's face was ugly at that time, how could he have suffered this kind of sulking since he was a child. But for the sake of her cooking skills, I won't care about it for the time being.
Liao Qi was not much better, but he didn't have the same ugly face as Xiahou Yan, just a little sneering, and was about to walk to another horse, when he suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him. When he looked at it again, Xiahou Yan had already galloped towards the horse in front of him.
In order not to expose his strength, Xiahou Yan didn't use much skill, and this speed was naturally not so scary.
"Hey, the surname is sealed, what consciousness do you have!" Seeing this, Liao Qi also hurriedly ran forward and grabbed the reins of the horse.
So there was the following situation, two big men holding one side of the reins and glaring at each other without giving in, as if whoever stared for a long time and whose eyes were big would be whose horse would be.
"You two will give me a carriage, and no one will have to ride this horse." Jian Ning was really a little angry this time, and her tone became not so good, and she sat on the horse and said condescendingly.
Xi'er also returned to the carriage at this time, looked at the two people who were a little dumbfounded, and couldn't help but hum, she really deserved it!
Su Tong's face stiffened slightly, but he quickly returned to normal, and took Jian Ning to ride a horse in front.
Su Tong didn't ride fast at all, and tried to make the horse go as flat as possible. Although it was not much more comfortable than in the carriage, it was still fresh air to breathe, and Jian Ning didn't feel like vomiting.
In this way, after walking slowly for nearly half an hour, the group finally arrived at the entrance of Ganling Village.
When she arrived at the entrance of the village, Jian Ning dismounted directly. The farmhouse is not far from here, so it won't be too tiring to walk through. Jian Ning got off the horse, and the others naturally didn't have the reason to sit in the carriage.
When I walked to the farmhouse, I happened to meet the sister-in-law from the previous time, Zhang Bai.
"Miss Jane, why are you here!" Sister-in-law Zhang saw that it was Jian Ning, and immediately put down the work in her hand and greeted her, and habitually wiped her hands on the apron in front of her.
"Shopkeeper Liu only said that he would send someone over today, so why didn't he make it clear that it was you, so that my family could pick you up at the entrance of the village!" Sister-in-law Zhang welcomed Jian Ning and them to the table in the courtyard and sat down, handed a cup of tea to Jian Ning, and said a little embarrassedly: "There is no good tea in a small place, Miss Jane is not strange." ”
"Sister-in-law Zhang is polite. I didn't let my brother sue you. Jian Ning took the tea and took a sip.
looked at the bucket that Sister-in-law Zhang put down just now not far away, and said, "Sister-in-law Zhang, is she preparing to feed the pigs?" ”
"It's not, it's noon soon, and after feeding the pigs, my family is almost coming back for dinner." Sister-in-law Zhang said with a smile on her face.
"Then let's go with Sister-in-law Zhang to have a look. It should take a while to match. Planted, right? Jian Ning asked casually.
Sister-in-law Zhang's family only raised two sows, which were originally breeding pigs raised by Sister-in-law Zhang's family. Later, after the cooperation between Shiweiyuan and the Zhang family, they bought land in the village and built a small farm to breed pigs. Sister-in-law Zhang's husband, Brother Zhang, is taking care of it, and of course there are also people from the Food Garden.
"yes, it won't be long before we can breed." Sister-in-law Zhang is a very simple, ordinary peasant woman, always with a warm smile on her face, and she is also very respectful to Jian Ning.
"Miss Jane, the pigsty doesn't smell good, and it's not clean. You'd better not go, or it won't hurt to stain your clothes. Hearing that Jian Ning was going to follow her to the pigsty, Sister-in-law Zhang persuaded her tactfully.
How can young ladies like them endure the smell of the pigsty? At first, I thought it smelled too unpleasant.
"It's okay, if you really can't stand it then, you can come out again." Jian Ning didn't care when she arrived, and said with a smile.
When I was a child, my family was not wealthy, I lived in a small village, and my family also raised pigs, so the taste was not unfamiliar. Jian Ning was not born a big lady, but she started to live a good life when she got a good job. She knows better than anyone else the suffering of poor families.
After speaking, Jian Ning got up directly and prepared to go to the pigsty to have a look. Suddenly, Xi'er's voice said weakly behind her, "Miss, are we really going?" I've heard that the pigsty smells terrible, especially in the summer, and there are flies everywhere."
Xi'er's words became quieter and quieter, and she could barely hear the sound until later. Jian Ning suddenly remembered that Xi'er had grown up with the original Jian Ning since she was a child, and she should have never been to that kind of place.
Looking at her now, she knew that she didn't dare to go. Jian Ning didn't blame her, and said to the people behind her: "I didn't have much rest just now, if you are tired, or thirsty, and you don't want to follow me, stay here to rest!" ”
Jian Ning has never really regarded these subordinates as subordinates, the idea that everyone is equal is deeply ingrained in Jian Ning's heart, and she will not force others to do anything.
