Chapter 266: Willing to Gamble and Lose
"Miss Yuan, although your jade pendant is good, it is far worse than the county lord's gemstone bracelet." Hu Mingmei pouted and smiled.
The county lord Anya glanced at the bow and arrow in her hand and said with a smile: "This county lord is quite interested in the bow in your hand. Why don't you use it as a lottery head! While speaking, there was also an expression of "the county lord suffers a loss".
Yuan Haiqing's face changed. This wind bow was used by her grandfather, the founding general Yuan Buqu, when he was young. Her grandfather loved her very much, and when he saw that she liked her, he gave it to her. After her grandfather's death, every time she picked up the bow, she remembered the old man with a stern kindness.
"What? If you are afraid of losing, you can say 'I'm afraid' to us three times, and the lord of this county will let you go!" "After the county lord Anya treated the acne, although she no longer troubled Gu Ye, her arrogant and arrogant nature still did not change. Today, I don't know why, I actually found Yuan Haiqing's trouble. Perhaps...... I am jealous that she is close to Gu Ye, and the relationship is good!
Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated! In Yuan Haiqing's bones, there is a kind of military general's temperament that does not admit defeat. She said loudly: "Compare and compare, who is afraid of whom!" ”
"Good! For the sake of fairness, Zixuan, you follow Miss Yuan. Yuan Haiqing, you can also send a maid to follow the county lord! "The county lord of Anya is confident that his archery skills are much stronger than those surnamed Yuan, and he doesn't take her seriously at all.
Gu Ye smiled slightly: "Since there is a competition, there is a lottery." Then let's play a little more exciting – bet! I bet on Sister Yuan to win with a set of hydrating skin care products! ”
Wang Liluo was overjoyed, but she frowned slightly and said, "A set of skin care products, how can it be enough!" There are three of us here! "If there is only one set, it will definitely fall into the hands of the county lord of Anya, and she and Hu Mingmei can't touch it.
"Okay, then three!" The skin care products in Gu Ye's hand, a single piece of it will cost thousands of taels of silver, a set of cleansing, water, milk, and cream, its value can be imagined.
Yuan Haiqing hurriedly tugged at her sleeve and whispered: "You are crazy, it is us who are competing, what are you fooling with." "Her own things, if she loses, she loses, but if she wants to hurt her little sister and loses the lottery, how can she be happy in her heart?
Gu Ye gave her an encouraging look: "Sister Yuan, I believe in you!" ”
Wang Liluo and Hu Mingmei were overjoyed, and they also took out their precious items and suppressed the victory of Anya County.
After the two groups separated, Yuan Haiqing became serious. It's a pity that her archery accuracy needs to be strengthened, and she may not be able to hit one arrow if she shoots three or five arrows. Yuan Haiqing was very frustrated and regretted that she didn't work hard when she practiced archery with her brothers.
However, she soon found that she had encountered more prey. Hare, pheasant, badger, fox, deer, roe deer...... Even if she couldn't get on the spot, she gradually gained more.
Gu Ye was helping to pick up prey on the side, cheering Yuan Haiqing on from time to time.
"Sister Yuan, look, ferret!" Gu Ye found the main goal of this trip in a crack in a stone. I secretly gave Xiaomo a thumbs up in my heart, and finally drove the ferret to them!
"Shhhhh Yuan Haiqing quietly filled the wind bow in his hand, aimed at the target, and steadily released an arrow. This time, God helped her, and the arrow shot through the ferret's tail and nailed it into a crack in the stone.
"Shot! Sister Gu, I cummed!! Yuan Haiqing waved his arms and shouted excitedly, startling a few birds chirping in the nearby trees.
Gu Ye ran over, knocked out the struggling ferret, bandaged its tail, and tied it to the horse's back. This competition evaluates, in addition to the quantity, but also the prey preciousness. With this ferret, Yuan Haiqing's chances of winning are a few points higher.
Next, Ji Tian drove a lot of prey over, and Yuan Haiqing had a full harvest. Even Gu Ye had itchy hands and shot a few Xuan Foxes. Zixuan, the maid of the county lord of Anya, was very puzzled in her heart: Miss Yuan's luck is too good, right? I've never seen a prey automatically delivered to the door.
When evening came, Yuan Haiqing also hunted a small wild boar half the size of the child. She accidentally shot an arrow into the boar's eye and wounded her head. The little wild boar is more than 100 catties, and Yuan Haiqing's maid is very difficult to carry it!
Back at the camp, the county lord of Anya, who had felt that he had won the battle, almost popped out his eyes when he saw Yuan Haiqing's prey. She looked at her maid, and Zixuan nodded with a wry smile. These prey were indeed hunted by Miss Yuan herself.
The county lord of Anya said angrily: "Wow! I didn't expect that you are usually clumsy, and the lord of this county was deceived by you! ”
Willing to lose the bet, she left the jewel bracelet. Wang Liluo and Hu Mingmei also reluctantly glanced at their colorful heads, hundreds of taels of silver. No matter how reluctant it is, it's someone else's now.
Gu Ye played with the hairpin and jade pendant. I didn't expect to go out hunting and win good things! She put the hairpin jade pendant into her purse, pointed to one of the birds in the prey, and said: "They all say, 'Pearl-necked turtledove, heavenly ginseng', let's eat this at night!" And this little wild boar, which is very fat, should be good to make braised pork. ”
"Yes, yes! Then I'll follow my sister tonight to feast on it! Yuan Haiqing thought about it, went to invite Lin Ruohan, and publicized her today's great achievements to her. And he showed her his trophy, a jeweled bracelet.
Lin Ruohan played with the gemstone bracelet. The main body of the bracelet is a gorgeous colored gold, which is inlaid with rubies, sapphires, topazes and other colorful gemstones. Dongling Country does not produce gemstones, and these gems are said to have been transported from far away to the west, and they are extremely valuable. A gem the size of a fingernail costs a thousand taels of silver.
This bracelet caused a sensation when it was sold in the Hidden Treasure Pavilion that year. In the end, it was won by King Qing's high price. Unexpectedly, the county lord of Anya actually lost the bracelet to Yuan Haiqing.
"The county lord of Anya lost the bracelet, I'm afraid that I will look at you even more unpleasantly in the future. Aren't you afraid that she will trouble you? "Regarding the temperament of the county lord of Anya, Lin Ruohan has always been respectful and far away.
Yuan Haiqing waved her hand indifferently and said, "Without this, she still looks at me unpleasantly!" It doesn't matter, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. I'm afraid she won't make it! ”
The bead-necked turtle doves roosted in groups, and Gu Ye and Yuan Haiqing hunted several of them. These turtle doves are fried, fried, roasted, and marinated into a delicacy.
"Five-spiced turtledove" is simmered and fried, the appearance is slightly crispy, and the inside is soft and fragrant. "Autumn pear turtledove" is fried with turtledove slices and pear slices, heated with a strong fire, cooked with rice wine, sugar, ginger juice and slightly fried, hooked with a little starch, and poured into scallion oil. Sydney pears are white and crisp, the meat is smooth and tender, salty and sweet.
"Braised turtle dove with shiitake mushroom and yellow", this dish is made of turtle dove that nourishes warmth and yang, and shiitake mushrooms that nourish qi and strengthen the body, help stomach and food, fight cancer and lower blood pressure. It can often be used as a therapeutic dish for diseases such as body weakness, lack of qi and blood, spleen and kidney yang deficiency, and cancer.
"Stewed turtle dove with ginseng", this dish is stewed with turtle dove and American ginseng that nourishes qi and nourishes yin, clears fire and generates Jin, which can make up for deficiency, benefit qi and blood, and is especially suitable for people who are weak and tired, yin deficiency and fire, wheezing, coughing and phlegm blood, susceptible to cold, and easy to dry mouth.
The three little girls not only ate these delicious turtledoves for themselves, but also gave some to their own families to eat. The Jun family and Chu Mufeng did not fall behind. The people in the imperial dining room also offered one to the emperor, and they were praised and rewarded by the emperor, and they were grateful to Gu Ye in their hearts.
