Chapter 18: Xiaohan
Naturally, there were two small guys holding a roster next to them, registering the names of the gamblers, betting on the fighting cocks, and collecting silver.
Today's cockfighting arena is naturally the Chaoyang County Lord's father ~ Xianwang Li Xian, the golden-necked rooster is the pet that Li Xian just received.
At this time, Jianing found that the huge body of Xianwang Li Xian was sitting in the stands, staring at his pet with good eyes, grinning, clapping his fat palms, and cheering for the golden neck.
It turned out that the temperament and appearance of the county lord of Chaoyang were six or seven points with him.
Chaoyang touched the cuffs, but he didn't touch the silver taels, he was a little embarrassed, and only took out a golden hairpin from the top of his head and put it on the tray of the little guy, "Use this to resist!" ”
Qingluan took a look, then picked up the golden hairpin in the tray, and asked the jade bead behind him to press the silver for the county lord of Chaoyang.
She inserted the golden hairpin back into Chaoyang's bun and said with a smile: "Take off the hairpin, what if it spreads out for a while, this bet counts as my share, and when we win, we will go to Jingxiu Lou to listen to the book." ”
"Okay." Chaoyang was not polite to Jianing, watched the cockfight for a while, and then dragged her to the martial arts training ground to watch the teenagers shoot arrows.
Li Wen was also there, and when he saw Jianing coming, he handed her the longbow in his hand, "I remember that Jianing's accuracy is excellent, how about coming over and comparing with Brother Wei?" ”
"Okay."
Qingluan smiled and took the bow and arrow, pulled the bow and aimed.
Li Wen smiled and looked at the girl in front of him.
A bird-shaped golden hairpin is inserted in the flying bun, and the gold silk blue treasure drop beads are hung in the mouth, and the two sapphire drop beads are printed with each other; The hair is in a high bun, revealing a white and soft neck, and a few strands of broken hair are caressing with the wind, floating over the cheeks that are not powdered, but too delicate and showy.
She is dressed in a moon-white narrow sleeve top, the neckline and cuffs are embroidered with the same color auspicious cloud embroidery, the crow Qingshu embroidered bandeau, the outer begonia red gauze long skirt, and a crow green silk luo ribbon around the waist, hanging down to the skirt, showing the Miaoman figure.
A long tulle shawl was draped over his shoulders, which was slowly swaying in the wind.
The girl's bright eyebrows were filled with a heroic spirit, her clear eyes were half-squinted, she was aiming at the arrows, pulling the bowstring, and her soft white fingers were also full of strength at this time.
"Good!" Li Wen applauded and said with a smile: "Jianing's archery skills are becoming more and more proficient, and now he can penetrate Yang in a hundred steps." ”
Qingluan smiled, a little proud, "Brother Wen Shi has a good reputation. ”
In fact, her swordsmanship is better now, but this arrow has been practiced less, and her technique seems to be a little rusty.
"Humph! What's the big deal, who wouldn't shoot archery! Three-legged cat! Sun Li pouted disdainfully.
Chaoyang was not happy when he heard this, and pointed at Sun Li and shouted: "If you have the ability, you can also shoot to everyone, the guy who doesn't know the face of the horse!" ”
"Shoot and shoot!" Sun Yu took another bow, drew an arrow and drew the bow, and shot an arrow, but the arrow was next to Qingluan's previous arrow and inserted into the red heart.
"Huh? I can't see it, Sun Li, your archery skills are so good. Qingluan praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Humph!" Sun Li raised his head, his chin was about to poke into the sky, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently showed a smile.
Li Wen also picked up the longbow, tightened the bowstring with his slender fingers, and actually held two feather arrows in his hand, pulled them full, aimed at the target, and shot them.
With two sounds, two arrows plunged straight into the middle of the previous arrows, and one of them actually broke Sun Li's arrow into several pieces.
"Wow! It's still cousin! The county lord of Chaoyang clapped his hands and laughed, causing several teenagers to turn to look at him.
Qingluan was also surprised, that arrow was all gone to the metal arrow, he had such strength to break Sun Li's arrow.
"This is the real archery, women should go home and learn more embroidery and female red, don't come out and be embarrassed." Sun Li's smug appearance was as if he had shot it.
"Cut! You have the ability to be like my cousin, you are also a man, isn't it that you can't compare to Jianing? Chaoyang glanced at Sun Li disdainfully.
"Who said I can't compare!" Sun Li was annoyed and picked up a longbow, "I'll shoot it to you now!" ”
"I don't want to look at you!" Chaoyang glanced at him disdainfully, turned his face to Li Wen and said, "Cousin, why don't we compare?" I'll press fifty taels and bet on you to win. ”
Li Wen smiled, "How can there be such a bet to win or lose, you will not be able to compare with me anymore when you bet like this." ”
"So, how does Jianing compare to you?" Chaoyang wanted to win this bet, and did not hesitate to betray his best friend.
Qingluan was angry and funny, glared at Chaoyang and said: "Since I am competing, I must not bet, if I really lose, and no one presses me to win, it is you who have won the bet, and no one will pay you money." ”
"That'...... Then let Sun Li press you to win! Chaoyang pointed at Sun Yu and said.
"Why?" Sun Li is not happy, he is not stupid, isn't this obviously trying to cheat him for money.
Chaoyang blinked and thought for a moment, but there was still no way. You can't ask your cousin to press Jianing to win.
"Alas, forget it, I'll use this bracelet to press myself to win." Qingluan is also considered to have lost to Chaoyang, for the sake of her birthday today, let her rejoice.
Li Wen also smiled: "Since Jianing pressured herself to win, then, I will also pressure her to win." As he spoke, he took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and put it on the lacquer plate held by the little servant.
The county lord of Chaoyang thought about it, and always felt that something was wrong.
"No, no, no!" Sun Yu objected again and again, "How can there be such a bet?" Since Jianing pressured herself to win, Wen Shizi, you should also pressure yourself to win, why pressure her to win? ”
Chaoyang seemed to react, and also shook his head in disagreement, "Cousin, if you press Jianing to win, how can you deliberately release water to lose to her?" ”
Li Wen smiled: "How come? Jianing's archery skills are outstanding, and it is not surprising that he won. ”
"Ah, that's not going to work!" Chaoyang said, turned his head and asked Sun Li, "Who are you going to press?" ”
"If I bet, I will naturally win by pressing Wen Shizi." Sun Li said without hesitation.
"Okay, that's good, you can bet now." Chaoyang couldn't wait to instruct the little servant, "Come over and write a note to Sun Li." ”
Sun Li was dumbfounded, but when he saw the little guy holding the pen and looking at him with burning eyes, he had no choice but to frown and touch it from his sleeve for a long time, took out a fifty taels of silver ticket, and slapped it in the tray painfully, "Take it!" ”
Chaoyang smiled and said, "I'm pressing Jianing to win now, hehe, the silver is owed for the time being, and I'll give it when I win." ”
The corners of the little girl's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart: If you win, then do you still need to give it? This master of his own family is really enough.
Sun Yu immediately stopped doing it and shouted, "Huh? What do you mean? "Going around and around, I still want to pit him.
It's all pressure Jianing to win, what if Wen Shizi deliberately loses to her?
"You cheat! I don't want to fall for you! Sun Li snorted angrily and pointed at a few people and shouted.
Li Wen also smiled and said: "You two don't have to press, just me and Jianing will press each other, if I lose, my jade pendant will lose to Jianing, if Jianing loses, her bracelet will belong to me, is this good?" ”
Chaoyang thought about it and nodded, "Okay, okay, if any of you loses, you have to go to Jinxiu Building for a treat." ”
Qingluan sighed in her heart, so she had to nod, "I agree." That's it. ”
