Chapter 73: The Rose Races the Horse

Early in the morning, Xiaolan groomed Guo Xiaoxiao.

"I heard that the one from the Han Mansion was born."

Guo Xiaoxiao's eyelashes trembled, and he said, "How long has it been?" ”

"The ground that just fell seven or eight days ago." Xiaolan took the comb, "I heard it's a female doll." ”

"Hmm." Guo Xiaoxiao closed his eyes, "The female doll is good, easy to discipline." ”

"Madame is very happy, she shouted last night to visit Hanfu."

"The first time my mother hugged her grandson, she was naturally happy."

After a while, Xiaolan said again: "Someone suddenly handed a letter outside the door this morning. ”

"Who sent it?"

"I don't know, I didn't see anyone."

"Bring it."

Xiaolan handed the envelope to Guo Xiaoxiao.

Guo Xiaoxiao opened it and saw that she didn't recognize the handwriting, and said that she should go to Qingyun Temple to gather and pay the sea rose.

"Hmph." Guo Xiaoxiao snorted coldly, "Hongmen Banquet!" ”

"Is the young lady going or not going?"

"Of course we have to go, we have been hiding for so long, and if we continue to hide, others will say that the eldest lady of the Guo family is as timid as a mouse."

Xiaolan smiled: "Didn't Miss care about these things before?" ”

"I don't care, but I don't want the third girl to look down on our Guo family. Now my father is suffering from illness and is unconscious, and my mother has been waiting by my side, our family is considered to have no pillars, I must show the style of the eldest lady and suppress these demons and monsters. ”

Xiaolan gave her a pale red lipstick, but Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Don't, take that bright red one, I don't want to lose her in aura." ”

Xiaolan smiled, and the two rode out of the outskirts of the city in a carriage.

Datang was driving outside, Xiaolan and Guo Xiaoxiao were sitting in the carriage, Xiaolan sighed and said: "In the past, there was always the young master who protected the flowers, but now it ......."

"He's been married for so long, what else is he talking about? I will mention it again in the future, so as not to fall into the mouth, you know? ”

"Yes, the slave has written it down."

The carriage traveled to Qingyun Temple, and as soon as Guo Xiaoxiao got out of the car, a maid in purple clothes led the way in front.

"Miss Guo, please go this way."

Guo Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment, and the maid said: "My wife said that there are many noisy people in the front yard, please go to the backyard." ”

It doesn't matter, Guo Xiaoxiao wants to see what tricks the sea rose can play.

Guo Xiaoxiao followed the purple-clothed maid to the backyard, and found that the road was getting narrower and narrower, and there were fewer and fewer people, and after walking for about a quarter of an hour, Guo Xiaoxiao said: "Dare to ask this girl, how far is it?" ”

"It's not far away, it's just ahead."

Guo Xiaoxiao hesitated for a while, then turned around and gave Xiaolan and Datang a look, for fear of accidents, you must be vigilant.

Guo Xiaoxiao followed the maid for a short while, and suddenly realized that the field of vision was wide, the world was wide, this was a wide valley, with gurgling water and fragrant daisies, as well as a winding river.

"Miss, please come with me."

Xiaolan and Datang wanted to follow, but the maid said, "My wife wants to talk to the eldest lady alone." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao retreated left and right, followed the maid over, and saw a young woman wearing a purple cloak and holding her hair in a bun standing at the bottom of the valley with two horses.

"Madam, Miss Guo is here."

The young woman suddenly turned around and told the maid to stand down. Guo Xiaoxiao saw that today's sea rose had faded from the immaturity of the past, and the bun on her head showed her maturity as a new wife, and she was still high-spirited and high-spirited.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Guo Xiaoxiao said.

Sea Rose touched the mane of the horse next to her, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, it is a rare paradise, the sun is just right today, why don't you and I take advantage of the beautiful scenery to have more fun?" ”

"I met Mrs. Jiang Pingshui and I have only met a few times, so the relationship should not be so close, right?"

"Mrs. Jiang." The sea rose said with a smile, "I like this title!" ”

"Did you come to me just so that I could call you 'Young Lady Jiang'?"

"Hahaha." Sea Rose chuckled a few times, "Since ancient times, the winner is king, and the loser is the loser. ”

Sea Rose looked at the two horses in front of her, and handed the reins of one of the horses to Guo Xiaoxiao: "I heard that you love horses, do you dare to have a competition with me?" ”

Guo Xiaoxiao's eyes became vigilant: "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Who else?" The sea rose smiled ghostly, "Naturally, I heard from those closest to me. ”

Sea Rose let go of the reins, walked behind Guo Xiaoxiao, and said slowly: "In your heart, you shouldn't be able to let go of him, right?" ”

Without waiting for Guo Xiaoxiao to speak, Sea Rose said again: "You don't have to defend yourself, because every little action you make betrays you." ”

"If you can't let it go, what can you do?" Guo Xiaoxiao said lightly.

"If you let him go, it will not be interesting for me to ridicule you today."

Provocation! Guo Xiaoxiao held back his anger.

"Are you so happy to taunt me?"

"Of course it's fun!" Searose walked up to her, "I feel uncomfortable when I think of his affection for you, but he belongs to me now." He hugged me to sleep every night, whispered words of love to me in my ear, and greeted me with warmth, and I felt very happy. ”

Guo Xiaoxiao stood motionless, his hands clenched into fists.

"He always likes to pull me to sit on the edge of the bed, tell me jokes, talk about the Book of Songs, and say that my father-in-law is old and wants to hold his grandson as soon as possible." Sea Carrose covered her mouth and smiled, "He's really, always saying those things that are not ashamed. ”

"You're done?"

Sea Rose looked up at Guo Xiaoxiao with a raised face: "It's over." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao turned around and left.

Sea Rose shouted: "It is said that the eldest lady of the Guo family is a heroine, do you dare to compete with me?" ”

Hearing the sound of the sea rose shaking the reins, Guo Xiaoxiao stopped.

Xiaolan saw Guo Xiaoxiao turn around and walk towards the sea rose, and hurriedly said, "Miss! You're too delicate to ride a horse! ”

Xiaolan was reminding her of the injuries on her body.

But the sea rose humiliated her like this, she couldn't swallow this breath, and she walked towards the sea rose angrily.

"Come on!"

"Heroic enough!" The sea rose pretended to praise.

She didn't know how the sea rose was agitated, but she still took the reins and got on the horse. The sea rose whipped out of the canyon, Guo Xiaoxiao followed closely, and Xiaolan and the three were left behind.

Sea Rose and Guo Xiaoxiao came to a wide mud field.

Guo Xiaoxiao grabbed the reins and said, "This is a horse farm?" ”

"Sort of." The sea rose rode around, "Let's go to the stone and have a try." Running two miles of land, there is a crooked neck tree two miles away, and that is the end point, how about it? ”

Guo Xiaoxiao hesitated and did not agree.

"What? Can't trust me? It's all here, what are you afraid of? ”

Guo Xiaoxiao didn't answer Sea Rose's words, but said something else: "Are you really so happy with him?" ”

Sea Rose's heart trembled, and then she smiled: "Of course! ”

"What if I win you?"

"If you win me...... What do you want? The sea rose asked sideways.

"From then on, there will be nothing to do, and there will be no mention of the past."

The sea rose lowered her eyes: "Good! What if you lose? ”

"If I lose, I'll tell you a secret."

"What's the secret?"

"It's about me and him."

"What's the use of asking for your secrets?"

"It's up to you if you want to know or not, anyway, I'll leave the words here, if you don't want to make a bet, I'll return to Yangzhou City."

Guo Xiaoxiao stopped in place, and Hai Rose thought about it and said, "Okay, a word is a certainty." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao took the lead in riding a horse to the stone, followed by the sea rose.

The sea rose dismounted and picked up a pebble, and said, "I throw a pebble, and the stone hits the ground, which is the signal to start." ”

Guo Xiaoxiao nodded, and the sea rose turned on the horse's back and threw the stone upward. The stone fell quickly, hitting the ground, and the two of them rushed out like arrows.

The scenery around him swept across his eyes, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't see anything clearly, he only knew how to rush forward. Such a scene also appeared many years ago, she and Guo Qianqian raced horses, she refused to lose to death, but the horse went crazy that day, causing her to fall off the horse and break her waistbone.

Although the sea rose was a boudoir woman, she was surprisingly good at riding, and it didn't take long for her to get ahead of her. She pulled the reins, not to be outdone, and followed.

Guo Xiaoxiao is still a big step behind the sea rose, and after a while, he can't see the figure of the sea rose.

However, she was unfamiliar with the road, and there was a stone wall in front of her that needed to make a sharp turn, and she hurriedly grabbed the reins, and the horse was on all fours, only to be thrown off, and fell heavily to the ground, and rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

When the sea rose was about to reach the crooked neck tree, she didn't hear the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and when she looked back, there was no Guo Xiaoxiao.

After the sea rose reached the end, she waited in place for half an hour, she thought to herself, no matter how slow it is, it should be here now, isn't it stage fright to return to the city?

The sea rose rode back again, and when she reached the stone wall, she saw a horse walking around in the same place, and the sea rose looked around and found Guo Xiaoxiao lying on the ground.

The sea rose dismounted and ran over to see Guo Xiaoxiao.

"Miss Guo! Miss Guo! The sea rose shook her and sniffed again, "It's okay, it's still breathing!" ”

The sea rose got up and walked to the horse that Guo Xiaoxiao was riding, touched the horse's mane, and said, "What's the matter?" ”

The horses called several times and walked back and forth beside the stone wall.

Sea Rose said again: "Hit the wall? ”

The horses barked a few more times.

"Well, forget it."

Sea Rose rode another horse back to the valley and called Xiaolan and Datang to rescue Guo Xiaoxiao. Xiaolan didn't dare to say a word, and Datang could only swallow his anger.

The maid in purple clothes is called Binglian, and she is the bridal maid of the sea rose.

On the way back to Yangzhou with the sea rose, the ice lotus was even more panicked than the sea rose: "Young lady, if the master finds out that she is so seriously injured, what can we do?" ”

"You're not dead, what are you panicking about?"

Binglian is also a coward: "But...... But the slave and maid were all over and down in their hearts. Besides, she was called to the valley by the young lady, except for such a thing, I'm afraid we can't get out of it......"
