Chapter 4: The Capture of the Horse
Wei Jingshu was frightened, and when she returned to her carriage, she didn't make a sound, and she didn't notice that the carriage was fast or slow, so she only lowered her head and wrung the handkerchief in her hand.
The carriage went straight to Nanyuan, and when she reached the ground, she came to her senses and took a breath, knowing what she was doing today.
Nanyuan is built on the outskirts of the city, encircling most of the south, there are mountains and rivers and a racecourse, and the Shangsi Festival is held here every year.
Wei Jingshu came neither early nor late, and asked the little maid to lead her in, and along the way, she saw many girls gathering in twos and threes to talk.
His eyes rolled around, and he didn't see the fourth sister Wei Jingwan, so he simply didn't look for it, but said to the little maid: "You take me to the stable." ”
The little maid knew Wei Jingshu, and she also knew that Yunzhou was a girl like her, who loved horses like her, and led her to the stable with a sound.
The festival is held every year, and horse racing is also indispensable, and in the early years, there was an unwritten rule because of the horse's accident.
For the sake of fairness, the horses of each family were sent to Nanyuan half a month in advance, and they were raised by the Yongjing Palace, and they were returned to each family on the day of the festival.
But to prevent someone from doing that filthy thing and causing trouble again.
When Wei Jingshu woke up, the horses had already been sent to Nanyuan, and she didn't plan to play today, but she also had to guard her own horses, and she couldn't let Xu Jinzhen and Chen Nianwei get their hands again.
The little maid led Wei Jingshu to stand in the open space in front of the stable, and then said, "Girl, wait a minute, the slave maid will lead the horse out for you." ”
There were also a few girls in riding clothes around who were waiting for the little maid to lead the horse, and some of them were familiar with Wei Jingshu, so they came over to talk.
Wei Jingshu was still patiently speaking, and only waited for half a ring before the little maid who went to lead the horse out, so she sent Honeysuckle to urge her.
Honeysuckle deserved a cry and turned to leave, only to hear a quarrel in the stable.
"Isn't it just a horse, borrowed and used, and after a while, this girl will talk to your young lady, how can she be so stingy."
"The girl of the Xu family should not embarrass the slave maid, this horse is the girl's treasure, and the girl must not approve where to borrow it."
The man in front of him had a loud voice, with a bit of arrogance.
The sound behind me was the honeysuckle that had just gone to the stable.
The girls looked at each other, but they didn't speak.
Wei Jingshu frowned, didn't say much, and walked to the stable as soon as her footsteps were raised.
I saw a reddish-brown pony called a little girl in red who was pulling the reins on one side and glared angrily at the honeysuckle in front of her, this person was Xu Jinzhen, the concubine of the Xu family.
Although Honeysuckle is a little girl, she is not afraid, pulling the reins at the other end, and she will not let go.
Chen Nianwei, who has always been embarrassed with Xu Jinzhen, has a good posture of watching a good show, holding her hands and watching it lively.
You don't have to guess what it is.
Wei Jingshu stepped forward a few steps, saw that Honeysuckle's eyes lit up, nodded, took the reins from her hand, pulled the entire reins out of Xu Jinzhen's hand, and sneered: "What's the matter, your Xu family robbed the house and robbed the territory of the Yongjing Palace." ”
The Wei family has been a scholar for generations, even if there is embarrassment, it can be regarded as a family more or less in Yunzhou.
The Xu family is different, in the year of war, what the ancestors of the Xu family did was to rob the house, that is, the future is good, and it cannot erase that history.
Xu Jinzhen was originally born as a concubine, and she was already inferior, so she couldn't hear anyone talk about the old affairs of the Xu family, so she exploded immediately: "Wei Jingshu, did you eat dung early in the morning?" ”
However, when Chen Nianwei saw Wei Jingshu suddenly appear, she was still smiling, and pulled Xu Jinzhen's sleeve: "Sister Wei came just in time, I am looking for my sister, see if I can change horses with my sister, my sister has always been generous, and I won't refuse if I want to come." ”
Wei Jingshu touched the horse's sideburns, glanced at Chen Nianwei, and the corners of her mouth were slightly curved and smiled: "Don't change!" ”
