Chapter 358: Compare Again
On the first day of the first lunar month, Zhangzhu received a bottle of plum from Grandma Meng. The dotted yellow buds have a pleasant fragrance.
The palm beads made people put the vase on the bookcase under the window, and with this vase of flowers, the mood was much better.
In the morning, they went to pay New Year's greetings to the old lady, and the old lady was very happy. Then Yun Zhao said that he wanted to take Zhangzhu out for a walk, and Zhangzhu said: "It's cold, I don't want to go out." ”
"Hey, you haven't been out at home for many days, take advantage of the fact that today is the first day of the new year, don't go out for a walk, I heard that today is very lively."
Zhangzhu wanted to say that it was not interesting, but she was still taken away by Yun Zhaoqiang and stuffed her into the carriage.
Yun Zhao drove in person, and the carriage went out of the alley where the Du family lived, and swayed forward. Zhangzhu sat in the car and wondered if Jinshi had asked her third brother to take her out. Speaking of which, she hasn't seen Yuanzhen for half a month, I don't know if he's doing well?
Thinking like this, Zhangzhu couldn't help but lift the curtain and look outside, the outside was bustling and lively, as well as the rows of red lanterns hanging under the corridor, the Spring Festival couplets posted in front of every house, and the sound of gongs, drums and suona floating in distant places, Zhangzhu guessed that someone should be dancing the lion and dragon. These are the most lively voices in the market, when she was still Xie Ruoyi, she would come out with her family every New Year's Day to join in the fun, and so many years have passed.
The car went all the way south, and Zhangzhu couldn't help but ask: "Third brother, where are you going to take me?" ”
"Hey, just sit down, it won't be long before you're there."
Later, the car actually left the city and went to the suburbs. The noise in her ears gradually stopped, and she looked at the bare branches, and the somewhat gray sky couldn't guess where Yun Zhao was going to stay with her.
I don't know how long it took, the car finally stopped, Yun Zhao asked Zhangzhu to get out of the car, Zhangzhu jumped off the car by himself, in front of her was a very open place, but it was surrounded by a wall, and there were a few erected arrow targets, there were tethered horse posts, all of which she looked a little puzzled, but here she always felt a little familiar, she seemed to have been here a long time ago, when she was still Xie Ruoyi, she was brought here by the seventh brother to learn to ride a horse. At that time, she had a strong sense of comprehension, but at the age of ten, it took her an afternoon to learn to ride a horse.
Just as she was thinking this, she suddenly saw a man come out of a doorway, a tall man wearing royal blue arrow sleeves, and holding two horses in his hands. Zhangzhu recognized it as Chu Yuanzhen at a glance.
Zhangzhu and Yun Zhao said, "Did he ask you to take me out?" ”
"Yes, but it took me a long time before I agreed. I heard that you are very good at horseback riding, let me see it, okay? Yun Zhao's smiling face was very bright.
Zhangzhu walked towards Yuanzhen, who smiled and nodded at her, and then handed her a rein. Without saying a word, Zhangzhu stepped on the saddle and got on the horse's back, and with a shout in his mouth, the horse followed suit.
She hadn't ridden a horse for a long time, but she still felt it, and as soon as she clamped the horse's belly, the horse under her ran quickly, and she was very happy, and she urged the horse to run fast with her whip. Yun Zhao was already stunned, he had only heard that this cousin could ride a horse, but he didn't know that her riding skills were so exquisite.
Yuan Zhen also rode on a horse to chase the palm beads, and he caught up after a lap, and the two went hand in hand to talk and laugh. Yun Zhao suddenly felt that he was redundant. At this time, another person came, that person was Song Jinfei, Song Jinfei rode a brown and yellow horse, and the horse was very tall.
Yun Zhao stepped forward to greet Song Jinfei: "Hey brother, why are you here too?" ”
Song Jinfei smiled: "Why can't I come." ”
Galloping on horseback can make people forget all their troubles in an instant, and she likes to come out to ride when she is in a bad mood, and there are no worries after two laps.
When Zhangzhu was tired of riding, she got off the horse first, and Yun Zhao hurriedly handed over the water when she saw this.
"Sister Fu, you are really hidden."
Zhangzhu smiled and said, "What kind of ability is this." ”
Over there, Song Jinfei had already caught up with Chu Yuanzhen, the two horses were in parallel, Song Jinfei and Chu Yuanzhen said: "Second son, how about we try again today?" ”
Chu Yuanzhen was a little puzzled: "Do you want to compare?" I don't dare compare to you. ”
"The second son is scared? I have been unwilling to lose to you last time, I have been practicing hard for a long time, and I am looking forward to one day to compete with you, this time we will not take Miss Fu as a bet, you don't have to worry. ”
Chu Yuanzhen glanced back at the palm beads, and he continued: "How can you compare?" ”
Song Jinfei smiled: "How about the same as last time?" ”
Chu Yuanzhen accepted his challenge.
The two of them both got off the horse, Song Jinfei took out the bow and arrow that had been prepared a long time ago, and the resting Zhangzhu over there couldn't sit still when she saw this, she stepped forward, but Song Jinfei turned his head and smiled with Zhangzhu and said, "How about Miss Fu come to be a witness?" ”
The two of them looked very calm, and their palms were a little incomprehensible.
But the competition between the two officially kicked off, Du Yunzhao saw Chu Yuanzhen pull a bow and shoot arrows for the first time, he was very surprised, in his impression he was a sick man who couldn't even walk steadily, he didn't expect Chu Yuanzhen to pull a bow and shoot arrows, and as the competition progressed, he was surprised to find that Chu Yuanzhen's archery was not bad with Song Jinfei, who was born as a military general. He suddenly felt that the people around him were very mysterious, as if he didn't know anyone.
None of the first three arrows missed, they were all in the middle of the heart, and in a blink of an eye, Chu Yuanzhen shot first, he pulled the string, and when he released the arrow in his hand, he first turned his head and glanced at the palm bead, and the palm bead nodded at him. Yuan Zhen did not hesitate, the arrow shot towards the target quickly, this one is still very stable, and then it should be Song Jinfei, he seemed to hesitate a little before shooting the arrow, his hand shook slightly, because of this shaking, the arrow shifted slightly, and the arrow did not hit.
Du Yunzhao was dumbfounded, when it came to the last one, he was more nervous than anyone else, Chu Yuanzhen was very relaxed this time, and he shot out quickly without any hesitation, still in the position of the red heart.
Song Jinfei said: "I admit defeat, it seems that the second son's archery skills are still very strong, and I can't surpass you." ”
Chu Yuanzhen was also modest: "It's just that I'm not good at it, I'm definitely not as good as you, for example, I don't know anything about swordsmanship." ”
Song Jinfei was relieved, and he smiled heartily: "Let's go, where are we going to have a drink, I have a treat today." ”
These two men used to be hostile because of women, and later they were obedient, and now they both regard each other as friends.
