Chapter 51: The Pole Ball Game

Hearing this, Lin Mumu crushed the unfinished red bean crisp, threw it into the pool to feed the fish, and looked up at the little girl. "This young lady doesn't need to be polite."

The little girl was wearing a goose-yellow tunic dress, and the eyes on the little goose egg face were big and round, and when she saw Lin Mumu looking over, she immediately lowered her head shyly and clenched her fingers nervously.

Lin Mumu saw that her fingers were about to twist into twists, a little funny, and couldn't help teasing her. "Since you are so nervous, why do you dare to come and talk to me, you see how smart those ladies and ladies are, and you came out to take the lead, you are not afraid that I will have a strange temper and embarrass you?"

"Huh? I, I'm very, very nervous, not very nervous, the third princess ......" The little girl was stunned at once, and her little face turned red because of nervousness.

Lin Mumu was very skeptical that if she continued to say anything, she would faint with nervousness.

"I'm kidding you, don't stand, I look tired, sit down and talk."

"Huh?" Huang Li'er was stunned for a moment, and it took a while to come back to her senses. "Thank you, thank you, Third Imperial Princess."

Huang Li'er sat stupidly beside Lin Mumu like a quail.

Lin Mumu thought that she might want to live in this place all the year round in the future, and she couldn't even go out to chat, eat, drink and have fun, although she didn't say a word, but she thought this little girl was quite funny.

"What's your name, and which house are you from?"

"Ah......" Every time Lin Mumu opened her mouth, Huang Li'er snorted softly as if she was frightened, and then felt that she was rude like this, and her expression was annoyed and at a loss.

"The little girl is, she is the yellow pear on the Huang Mansion."

Not? The girl in the official mansion.

"The name is cute."

"Huh? It's cute...... Thank you for the compliment...... "The princess praised her, so happy!"

"Little girl, little girl heard that the imperial concubine has good medical skills, very, very much admires the imperial concubine." Huang Li'er plucked up the courage to speak again.

"Huh? Do you admire me? You little girl has a lot of vision. ”

Qiaoqiao was embarrassed when she heard this, why did she think that her imperial concubine was getting thicker and thicker.

"I see that you are not very old, if you like it, you can usually read more medical books, and if you don't understand, you can come to me."

Huang Li'er looked flattered and was so happy that she couldn't speak!

"Is the princess serious? That, that's great, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, princess! ”

"Hmph, I thought I had a lot of ability, it turns out that there is only such a licking dog around me who can't get on the table!"

When Lin Mumu and Huang Li'er were chatting happily, a sharp and sarcastic voice sounded.

Lin Mumu didn't need to look back to know who was talking.

"What does the county lord mean is that the ladies and ladies around you are all kneeling and licking your dogs?"

Lin Mumu turned around for a long time and looked at the ladies and ladies standing behind Hu Xiyue with a smile.

Hearing this, the faces of those ladies and ladies became very ugly.

"Isn't it?" Hu Xiyue was arrogant enough to admit it directly.

The faces of these ladies and ladies were even more ugly.

They did have the intention of currying favor with Hu Xiyue, but the people present were all people with status, who could stand such humiliation!

"The county lord thinks yes, why should I refute it, it's just ...... In the eyes of this princess, it is not a good thing to be able to treat people as dogs, you see, you came, the fish in the pond were scared away. ”

"You dare to scold the lord of this county!" Hu Xiyue felt that she took it for granted that she was humiliated by others, but she couldn't stand the slightest humiliation of others.

Lin Mumu blinked, a little innocent. "County lord, if you wronged people, you must also pay attention to evidence, and if there is no evidence, it is slander."

"You! It's very sharp! Hu Xiyue leaned in front of her and lowered her voice. I'm telling you, sooner or later I'm going to pick out your tongue and feed it to the dogs! ”

Lin Mumu's eyebrows were cold, and the black pupils fell on her face without any temperature.

"I'll see."

"We'll see!" Hu Xiyue snorted coldly and left with the people.

Lin Ziyu, who was in the pavilion on the other side, saw this scene in his eyes and began to calculate in his heart.

"Concubine Fang, what are you looking at?" The young lady who knew her well was stunned when she saw her, and couldn't help but cry out curiously.

Lin Ziyu smiled wisely. "It's nothing, I'm just curious about who the person who talked to my sister just now." She has been recuperating in Shuiyue Pavilion these days, and she doesn't know so much about what is happening outside the mansion.

"You said Lord Ruolin?"

"Lord Ruolin? Nanyang King's favorite little daughter? Lin Ziyu reacted immediately.

"Yes, this Ruolin County Lord is spoiled at first glance, and she is very arrogant and domineering, if you want to say that she still has a holiday with the third princess."

When Lin Ziyu heard this, his eyelids raised. "How can she have a holiday with her sister?"

Hu Xiyue almost hurt people on the street, and people in the elite circle knew a lot, so she told Lin Ziyu about the matter at the moment.

"If you want to say that the third princess is also unlucky, and she got into trouble with this second ancestor, I don't know how much trouble there will be, eh, side concubine, where are you going?" Before she finished speaking, she saw Lin Ziyu walking out of the pavilion quickly.

"I feel a little hot, go inside and rest for a while." Lin Ziyu replied, but his footsteps went in the direction where Hu Xiyue left.

"Three, the third princess, you, you are really amazing!" After Hu Xiyue and the others left, Lin Mumu turned around and saw Huang Li'er looking at her with admiration.

The corners of Lin Mumu's eyes twitched, arguing with others, this is also powerful?

"Imperial Princess, the summer festival is about to begin, and the eldest princess has already arrived at the altar." Qiaoqiao said at the right time.

Before the summer festival begins, the eldest princess has to worship the flower goddess Niangniang.

"Got it, let's go over."

"Yes."

The altar is located behind the lodge.

When Lin Mumu and the others arrived at the altar, the people on the male side's side had almost arrived.

The altar is a round platform with a half-human height of stone steps, and it is filled with flowers in full bloom.

"The eldest princess has arrived." Although a song sounded, everyone bowed to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess, dressed in a moon-white pleated floor-length dress, walked up to the altar.

The bells and drums of "Jingle Bells and Jingle Bells" sounded, and the sacrifice began.

The eldest princess knelt reverently in front of the tablet of the goddess of flowers, and there was no sound on the altar except for the chanting of the mage.

The first time she saw such a sacrificial activity, it opened her eyes, but after only a while, Lin Mumu felt a little bored.

Fortunately, the whole process didn't take long, it was over in about a quarter of an hour.

"Summer Festival, begin."

After the summer festival begins, there is no need to divide the male and female seats, in fact, it is to give everyone a chance to play, and there will not be too much restraint in the rules.

"Eldest princess, what fun have you prepared this year?" There was a bold direct question.

The eldest princess is a kind one. "There's a poetry contest, there's a painting club, and there's a pole ball that you like to play."

"Pole ball?" Lin Mumu looked puzzled.

Seeing this, Huang Li'er behind her explained to her in a low voice.

This is actually a kind of aristocratic entertainment that only emerged in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, both men and women can participate, a bit similar to ice hockey, but on dry land.

"The pole ball at the last summer festival seems to have won the game by the team led by the lady of the mighty general's mansion, and I don't know who will win this year."

"The young lady of the mighty general's mansion got married this year, and I heard that she is pregnant, so she didn't come today."

"If you want to participate in par ball, go over there and draw lots." The eldest princess spoke.

The team that draws lots determines the team of the game, and the red team is the red team, and the blue sign is the blue team.

There are many unmarried sons in the powerful mansion who are present today, and there are even unmarried princes, this is a good opportunity to perform, and many girls are eager to sign up.

Lin Mumu had only heard of this kind of game today, and he had no intention of participating in it.

"In the first game of pole ball today, the team led by the county lord will play against the team led by the three princesses."

Lin Mumu was about to turn around and find a quiet place to cat, when she suddenly heard Hu Xiyue's arrogant voice behind her.

Lin Mumu turned around and glanced at Hu Xiyue suddenly.

This girl is not playing, gone!

"Then please ask the Third Imperial Concubine and Lord Ruolin to get ready when they arrive." The eldest princess looked at Lin Mumu and said.

Yes, as soon as the eldest princess spoke, Lin Mumu had no chance to refuse, if she called her sick or something now, it would be a shame!

There are ten people in a team, and those who draw red lots are all from the same team as Lin Mumu.

"Imperial Princess, when you play for a while, you, you have to be careful." Huang Li'er followed behind Lin Mumu and said worriedly.

Although she is timid, she is not a fool, if the county lord's hostility towards the third princess is so obvious, she is worried that the county lord will hurt Lin Mumu during the game.

Hu Xiyue has a kung fu foundation, and if she fights her, she is indeed easy to lose, so she should first gain time to understand the rules of the game!

Lin Mumu changed into a suit similar to Hu Fu in the backcourt, she raised her eyes and looked at her teammates, don't say it, she didn't know anyone!

"Which of you will tell me the rules?"

"The rules of the game are actually very simple, that is, find a way to hit the ball into the opponent's basket, but you can't hurt people, otherwise you will be kicked out of the court, a total of three games, one is only a quarter of an hour, after the game, which side scores the most goals, which side wins." A round-faced lady quickly explained the general rules.

In this way, there are not too many constraints in this game.

"Third Imperial Princess, the game is about to start, and I invite the Imperial Concubine and all the young ladies to wait on the field."

The pole ball game is a big event at the summer festival, and no other poetry contest is more exciting than this, and the audience outside the arena is almost full of men and women.

When Lin Mumu arrived at the field, he realized that the entire field was the size of half a football field, and it was very difficult to run down for dozens of minutes.

"All the racers are in place." A man in a black power suit walked to the center of the arena with a gong, and the team led by Lin Mumu and Hu Xiyue stood on either side of him.

After the eldest princess turned the hourglass in her hand upside down, the man slammed the gong and drum in his hand.

"Play, let's go!"
