Chapter 34: Courage
Maas blew the whistle, several horses ran over, and Mrs. Shangguan looked at it with a smile and pinched her wrist, "I have some expectations." ”
Jiang Yuanyuan also smiled, most of these women were like Mrs. Shangguan, a little excited, but the rigor engraved in the bones for many years made them unable to cheer loudly in public, but these little girls shouted loudly with excitement, very happy, they cheered loudly with the friends they knew, but few of them came to Jiang Yuanyuan's side, after all, they were not familiar, even if they came up to speak, they just politely said a few words and left.
All the horses stood on the track, and Maas pulled a long railing in front of them, and the horses sneezed, kicked back, and were a little excited, and the tails flicked in a show of their pleasure.
"Shh!!!h The whistle sounded, the railing in front of the horse fell to the ground, and in an instant, all the horses rushed out wildly, and at the bottom, it was lively all of a sudden, cheering and screaming, and these ladies who abide by it on weekdays clapped their hands one by one and cheered loudly.
"These girls are having fun." Grandma Liu sat on it and watched, seeing this scene, she couldn't help but smile, she picked out the cigarette of the incense burner, and lazily drooped her eyes, "When I was young, I was like them, I loved to make trouble and laugh, every time I saw such a scene, I was excited." ”
"But we're all old." A woman on the side smiled and said, she gently covered her lips and pursed her lips very gently.
"I'm old, you, one by one, are still young, what are you talking about old here." Grandma Liu smiled and said, "You should also go down to play, I see that it is interesting, you go down now, I can't say that you can catch up." ”
"How can I say this, I look at Mrs. Liu, you, but you are still young and energetic, we don't have this kind of spirit, let the little girls play at this time, we go more, but it makes them a little restrained."
"How nice it is to be young." Grandma Liu smiled when she heard this.
"Yes, I look at those good-looking dresses now, they are too gorgeous, if I wear them out, it will make people laugh, but I always wore them before, and I feel spiritual."
"Speaking of which, isn't the body of the Yuan girl also made by that store? I look at the color is quite bright, but it doesn't look bells and whistles, and it looks like a fairy, good-looking tight. A woman on the other side said.
"Yes, I also have two sets here, but I like it tightly, I don't want to wear it, it's very good-looking, if you like it, go and see it, just take a look, give my old woman a face, go and take a look, I can't say that I can find the clothes I like!" Grandma Liu said, "Eh, don't say I didn't tell you, not everyone can enter our shop, you have to take this invitation, I see that the number of places is limited, you have to say it quickly if you have ideas, otherwise, this invitation is gone, and you will regret going when the time comes." ”
"Sounds like a lot of warp!" Mrs. Chen suddenly covered her lips and smiled, her eyebrows and eyes were slightly curved when she smiled, very gentle, very kind, "Leave me one, I'll have to see it when the time comes." ”
"It's so tight, give me two, I'm going back to the capital in two months, I'll give my daughter, choose a better one." A lady on the other side said with a smile.
"Eh, speaking of which, is your Xiuxiu going to get married, I remember, Xiuxiu is almost sixteen." At this point, the woman on the other side suddenly spoke.
"Yes, this time I went back to Beijing to prepare for marriage, there are still a few months to be sixteen, my family has passed the first three ceremonies, this date is set for March next year, after going back this time, I am ready to get married, take her back early, and collect my heart."
"So fast, I haven't heard any news, whose son is it?"
"The second son of the Hanlin Bachelor's family." The woman smiled, and her smile faded, and she was obviously reluctant to talk more.
"This is not bad, but these two sons are concubines after all, and your family Xiuxiu is low-married." It was obvious that the woman did not want to talk more, but the man still had to continue, and pinched the peanut in his hand, and smiled lightly.
"Not really, the identities of the two families are similar." The woman restrained her smile and said lightly.
"But also, since ancient times, they have all been high-ranking and low-married girls, my Wan'er, didn't I say that it was given to the third son of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, but it's okay, although it's not a son-in-law, but in the end it's a son-in-law." The woman smiled, crushed the peanuts, and put the shell on the plate, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Liu, I think the Yuan girl is not a big man, don't you really need me to introduce someone, the girl's family, no matter what, you still have to marry early!" ”
"There's no need to worry about the second lady of Guangping!" Grandma Liu smiled, her hand lightly rested on the armrest on the side, and her body sat up slightly straight, "My maiden has an idea in her heart." ”
Mrs. Guangpinghou pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, and didn't say anything, and several women on the side couldn't help but laugh softly, this Guangpinghou's steproom is indeed a bad one, and she can't make a sound in front of the real lady.
"Yo, quietly who's winning." Grandma Liu saw that the horses were sprinting, and hurriedly said with a smile.
The first place is the red horse, the batch selected by Mrs. Shangguan is the third place, Jiang Yuanyuan doesn't know how many people are in the penultimate ranking, their plates are all five taels of silver and a bet, many girls are a little depressed, around the woman who robbed Mrs. Shangguan's horse before Happy celebration, Jiang Yuanyuan touched the horse running towards this side, still smiling very happily.
This one is three laps, three laps are not big, not small, but also tired of these horses, Mrs. Shangguan took the grass from the little girl and fed the horses in front of her, smiling very gently.
"Come on, come on, in the second set, everyone thinks about what horses to press, and with the feeling of the first set, the second set has to be carefully considered." Mrs. Qian shouted on the side, she took her rope and walked to the side first, and first chose the second horse, "Haha, I'm going to choose this horse, don't rob me!" ”
"What does my sister choose?" Jiang Yuanyuan looked left and right, and decided to choose the horse she had just now.
"Let's do it anyway." Mrs. Shangguan said, handed over the rope that the little maid had just handed over again, and she gently touched the horse's head, "Obediently, eat more and exert yourself." ”
"I also chose the one just now, I'm in trouble." Jiang Yuanyuan handed her rope to the little girl and smiled please, she looked around a few times left and right, and saw that the top three horses were selected, everyone was a little frustrated, and they all wandered around and didn't know what to choose.
"Why don't you play with these young ladies." Mrs. Shangguan withdrew her hand and wiped it with a handkerchief, and asked Jiang Yuanyuan with some curiosity.
"It's not a world in the first place." Jiang Yuanyuan shook her head, rubbed her face with an old ink appearance, "I can't get together, besides, I'm not too young, I really can't get along with this group of girls." ”
"Poof!" The Shangguan woman covered her lips and smiled, but she didn't expect Jiang Yuanyuan to be so funny.
"Get along more with these young ladies of the family, and you will get more contacts in the future." Mrs. Shangguan said.
"Isn't that you?" Jiang Yuanyuan smiled lightly, "I'm really not used to dealing with this kind of thing, like this, it makes people feel tired to look at it, and I don't know how they managed to be so tense all day." ”
Speaking of this, Jiang Yuanyuan stopped and looked at Mrs. Shangguan, "Just like you, I can't do it, at most be more upright." ”
"Actually, I've always thought you'd be good like this." Mrs. Shangguan said, she looked at the horse farm in front of her, and her thoughts were a little fluttering, "We are really tired like this, but these are all learned from childhood, they have been carved into the bones, and they can't be swept away. ”
"I can take you to live my life if you wish." Jiang Yuanyuan said, turned around and leaned on the railing to look at Mrs. Shangguan, "Food, clothing, and housing are the same as mine, and then, go walk around with me, live in tents, and see how beautiful this world is." ”
Madame Shangguan revealed a hint of confusion, and after a while, she lowered her eyes and did not speak again.
"Shh!!!h
The horse race started again, Jiang Yuanyuan stretched her neck to see, when the horse ran over for the first time, the leader was still the red horse from before, Jiang Yuanyuan saw that her horse was wandering in the middle of the stream, and she didn't keep wandering at the tail like the first time just now.
"Hurricanes! Thunder! Come on! When she ran over for the second time, Jiang Yuanyuan covered her mouth with her hands and shouted loudly, she used all her strength, shouted very hard, smiled happily, she shouted and waved her hand again, cheering for the two horses.
"Come on!" The little girl shouted along.
"Come on, come on!"
…………
With the first sound, there were a few followers, more and more people shouted, the horse had already run to the other half of the circle, and it was still shouting here, Jiang Yuanyuan kept jumping and shouting, watching the horse come to the corner, Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at Mrs. Shangguan, the meaning is obvious, do you want to shout with me?
Mrs. Shangguan clenched her fists, she hesitated and looked at it for a while, watching the thunder fall in the second position, she rubbed her fingers again, listening to the shouts around her, she couldn't help but want to shout along, this thought became stronger and stronger, and her heartbeat intensified uncontrollably, Mrs. Shangguan looked at it, thinking to herself, just once.
"Come on!"
Loud and loud, Mrs. Shangguan closed her eyes tightly, she felt that her voice had been lingering in her ears, she opened her eyes, and saw that Thunder had crossed the finish line first.
