Chapter 12 The Horse Farm
"Now that I'm done, let's go, I'm sleepy to death now, and I'm going to sleep again." After Du Qilin understood, he planned to drive Lin Jianbin away, and then go back to sleep.
"Don't, there's something going on today!" Lin Jianbin said with interest: "Today is the first day of betting on horses, let's go and have a look?" ”
"Bet on horses?" Du Qilin shook his head: "I'm not interested, I want to sleep." ”
"No, today's horse betting is a once-a-year event, and as far as I know, even Bai Ye will personally attend the grand event, you can't miss it!" Lin Jianbin pulled Du Qilin and didn't let him continue to lie down and sleep: "Take advantage of today's great opportunity to meet new friends, it will be beneficial to your future development!" ”
Du Qilin didn't listen much to the latter words, only heard the previous sentence: "Bai Ye is also going?" ”
"That's right, as we all know, Bai Ye's favorite thing in various activities is to bet on horses, and there are a few dark horses this year, it's impossible for Bai Ye not to go, let's go, go and see!"
"My dad isn't going?"
"Ah, the marshal is busy with military affairs, how can he go to this kind of party?" Lin Jianbin saw that Du Qilin had already taken the bait, and hurriedly said: "Besides, in the future, you will become a handsome, but there will be no such opportunity to run around, take advantage of the fact that you can play more now!" ”
This sentence is not rough, Du Qilin nodded reluctantly: "Okay, I know, you go down and wait for me, I'll change my clothes." ”
"Okay, then I'll go down and wait for you."
Lin Jianbin ran down with a smile, Du Qilin closed the door and changed clothes, he couldn't sleep last night, he re-sorted everything that had happened in the past few days, all kinds of characters and what he said were sorted out word for word, and now he began to have a clue, and he knew how to go next.
"Jianbin, it's early in the morning, why don't you say hello?"
Lin Jianbin walked down from the third floor with great interest, but forgot that this was not his house but the Marshal's Mansion, and he stood at the staircase and was stunned.
In the living room, the three aunts and wives were doing things by themselves, and when they saw Lin Jianbin stunned, the third aunt smiled helplessly: "You kid, talk to you well!" What's going on? ”
"The three aunts, it's Jianbin's fault that they bothered in the morning." Lin Jianbin immediately put on a well-behaved appearance and said with a smile: "Because I have something to say to the young marshal, I disturbed the rest of the wives in the morning..."
"Jianbin, are you saying this too late?" The fourth aunt also teased: "Just before the big marshal left, he said that he wanted to talk to your father about your impatient character, otherwise the young marshal would be taken away by you!"
"Ahh Lin Jianbin looked discouraged, and when he saw the smiling faces of the three aunts, he realized that the protagonist had been deceived: "Three aunts, don't bully me, I was just scolded by the young marshal, saying that I don't know any sense of proportion." ”
The third aunt smiled too much: "Even the unicorn has said you, you can grow more snacks by yourself!" ”
"I know that you are still making noise in the Marshal's Mansion in the morning, and those who don't know think that something happened to the Marshal's Mansion." The fifth aunt glanced at Lin Jianbin too much, her tone was reproachful, and she was more disdainful.
The atmosphere froze suddenly, Lin Jianbin realized that he had done something wrong, and hurriedly admitted his mistake and said, "Eh, I will definitely change it next time." ”
When Lin Jianbin was struggling in the living room, Du Qilin got dressed and went downstairs.
"Kirin, up? Breakfast was ready and ready to eat. The third aunt stood up with a smile and said to Du Qilin.
Du Qilin looked at the living room embarrassed, eighty percent of Lin Jianbin did something stupid, and hurriedly said: "No, I'm going out to play today, don't wait for me for lunch and dinner." ”
"Where are you going to play?"
"Isn't it a horse gambling in the western suburbs today, I'm going to see the world!"
The fifth aunt sneered: "It's also oh, as soon as I come back, all the Paramount bets on horses will be on, it seems that it won't be long before this eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling are all ready, right?" ”
"Who told you that Kirin went to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble?" The fourth aunt helped Du Qilin fight back: "If you eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, you won't go to a place like the racecourse, but it's strange, isn't it Saturday?" Where did Xiaoqing go? ”
"Xiaoqing," the third aunt smiled: "It seems that you went to a Western bell tower with your classmates, right?" Is there any difference between the Western Bell Tower and the racecourse? ”
"Who knows!" The fourth aunt smiled too disdainfully: "Anyway, it's all a place to spend money, what's the difference?" ”
"Old Five, I'm going to talk about you, you said that Qilin is a good person to go out, Xiaoqing's child is always running around outside, and Shanghai has not been quiet recently, if something happens, you say..."The third aunt is too late, I am afraid that the fifth aunt will scold them."
Du Qilin and Lin Jianbin seemed to be in dire straits, and they didn't squint when there was no one in this place.
The fifth aunt was so choked that she couldn't speak, and there were still two juniors in her who couldn't get angry, and she didn't let out a nest of gas in her stomach, not to mention how ugly her face was.
"Okay, be careful when you go out to play, bring more people, the horse farm is mixed, I don't know if it's good or pregnant, but it's always right to bring more people." After the third aunt let out a sigh, she said to Du Qilin with a gentle attitude.
Du Qilin and Lin Jianbin nodded hurriedly and quickly left the battlefield of the Great Marshal's Mansion.
"Fourth, I saw that the clothes you bought yesterday are all good-looking, and there are new items in the department store, right? The unicorn is not at home today, so we don't need to be busy, go out and relax, and buy some clothes with me, how about it? ”
"Okay, third sister, the clothes in the department store are all new, there must be something you like."
The third aunt and the fourth aunt left the Dashuai Mansion arm in arm, like sisters, leaving only the fifth aunt staring at her alone, and the handkerchief on her hand was about to be torn by her.
The two people sitting in the car exhaled together, Lin Jianbin patted his chest, and said like a survivor after the catastrophe: "Qilin, these three aunts and wives of your family are too terrible, right?" I feel a little sympathy for you now. ”
"Sympathize with me what?" Du Qilin also had palpitations and said: "Sympathize with my father, but the aunt he married back himself, why don't he worry about us?" ”
"Yes, however, it will be enough for me to have a lady in the future, and I understand this battle today, and Yanfu is not something that everyone can enjoy." Lin Jianbin woke up and said: "Qilin, you too, just find someone to live in the future, you said that you want to enjoy the joy of family at home after you have worked hard outside, but the result is that people are turned on their backs, it's not worth it!" ”
Du Qilin glanced at Lin Jianbin and said disdainfully: "I don't need you to worry about it yet, just worry about yourself." ”
"But, seriously, my dad used to like you, and without any other willingness, my dad asked me to play with you all the time."
"Why?"
"My father said that in the past, you were very elegant in both speech and conversation, and they were all brought out in your bones, saying that I would never have it in my life." Lin Jianbin asked, "So Qilin, I'm really curious why you came back?" Are you really planning not to be an ordinary person? ”
"Hmm." Du Qilin replied simply, and Lin Jianbin knew his attitude.
Because there were a few dark horses, the horse farm was much more lively than in previous years, and Du Qilin saw a strange scene from the car. Shanghai is a snobbish place, where there is a clear hierarchy between the rich and the poor, the superior and the low, and in the racecourse, you can see that the superior who looks proud in a suit can talk and laugh with the inferior who is dressed modestly, which can be said to be a great wonder in life.
"Let's get off here, saying that the car will affect the horses inside, and you are not allowed to drive in."
"Okay."
Du Qilin is a rare guest, and no one thought that Du Qilin would come to such a party, when he got out of the car, everyone's eyes were on Du Qilin's side, but Du Qilin was embarrassed.
Lin Jianbin was very comfortable, he looked around, and then as if he had found something, he raised his hands and said loudly: "Here!" ”
The three men walked up to Wen Yan and walked in front of Du Qilin, Lin Jianbin introduced with a smile: "This is my college classmate, I came with them in previous years, this is Du Qilin Du Shaoshuai, haven't you been shouting to see the real person for a long time, look!" ”
Du Qilin greeted them politely, felt that it was not the place to talk outside, and asked, "It's windy outside, where can I take shelter from the wind?" ”
One of the bespectacled men was puzzled: "There was originally a place, but it was taken first." It's the best place to watch horses, so I can't see it this year, but it's a pity. ”
"Don't say this kind of thing, we didn't buy that place, whoever arrives first will naturally be whoever." Lin Jianbin glanced at the man with glasses dissatisfied, and said: "It's not that there is no other place, there seems to be a canopy over there, let's go there first and then consider changing places, how about it?" ”
Du Qilin had no objection, followed Lin Jianbin to walk, Lin Jianbin gave full play to the ability to walk the rivers and lakes over the years, and while walking, Du Qilin introduced the general structure of the racecourse, and also pointed out the best place for Du Qilin to watch horse racing.
"I'm optimistic about this year, the number 15 horse, I think it will definitely run first." Lin Jianbin said proudly: "I have seen the other schedules of that horse in advance, and it is definitely the dark horse among the dark horses this year!" ”
"That's not, I'm betting on the eighth, the fifteenth, you see that it is obviously not good in the later stage, if nothing else, it will definitely be overtaken by others at the last moment today. But No. 8 is different, No. 8 has always been running at a constant speed, conserving physical strength, and must be a good horse for the final sprint! A man who had not spoken all this time heard the bet on the horse and immediately said excitedly.
The man with the glasses just now said, "Why not bet on the number ten that won last year?" I think I can win this year! ”
Du Qilin is really not interested in betting on horses, hearing them say their own things, Du Qilin had to listen to them, a pair of eyes glanced around, but they caught a glimpse of Du Qilin's goal today, Bai Ye.
