Chapter 262: The Sorrowful Little Red Horse (1)
"My lord, are you going back?" Xue Fei watched Nie Xiaohu and Cao Xiaohui walk to the stable, and hurriedly chased after them and asked.
"yes, what? Is there anything else you can do? ", Nie Xiaohu asked.
"Look, my lord, you've helped me solve another big case, so why don't you let me invite you to a drink to show my heart?" , Xue Fei said with a smile.
"Oh, then save it for now, and you can make up for it next time I come back!" , Nie Xiaohu said and untied the reins of the bolted horse.
"My lord, it's the town's annual horse racing in three days, do you want to stay and have a look?" , Xue Fei continued to work hard.
"Horse racing convention?" , Nie Xiaohu couldn't help but stop the movement in his hand.
Seeing that there was a door, Xue Fei hurriedly said: "Yes, the horse racing conference, this town is a specialty of a pony, the adult horse is not tall, but the running is not slow, it is very suitable for young people to ride, a horse race is held every year, the young people in the town will participate, the scene is lively!" ”
Nie Xiaohu's face immediately showed a very interested look, and he turned his head and whispered to Cao Xiaohui, "Why don't we ......?"
"It's all up to you!" , Cao Xiaohui smiled and nodded, it seemed that she was also interested in the horse racing conference.
"Oh well! We'll stay two more days and go back when we're done with the race! Nie Xiaohu bolted the reins back again.
"Great!" , Xue Feile said hehehe, "Tonight's banquet building, I'm in for a treat!" ”
The jade rabbit rises in the east, the lights are on at the beginning, and the largest restaurant in Fengyu Town, the banquet building, is brightly lit, full of people, and very lively.
Nie Xiaohu, Cao Xiaohui, Xue Fei and the other two companions sat around a square table by the window on the second floor, the table was full of fine wine and delicacies, and everyone chatted while eating, talking and laughing.
Just when everyone was half drunk, a short, middle-aged man with an obscene appearance approached Xue Fei while laughing, Xue Fei glanced at this person, and his brows were furrowed.
"I said Xue Jiu, you dead drunkard, what's the matter with me, didn't you see that I was entertaining guests?" , Xue Fei's face showed a look of disgust.
"Hey, hey! Xue Zhutou, we are all old acquaintances, and we are from the same sect, you know, I just have this mouthful", Xue Jiu looked at the wine bottle on the table, and his eyes radiated a greedy gaze.
Nie Xiaohu and Cao Xiaohui glanced at Xue Jiu, both of them with unhappy looks on their faces.
"I mean, don't you have the money to buy alcohol again? Go, go, I don't have time to talk to you today! Xue Fei impatiently pushed Xue Jiu outward.
"Xue Zhutou, look at the woman over there", Xue Jiu pointed to a table in the southeast corner of the second floor.
Xue Fei, Nie Xiaohu and the others all looked in the direction of Xue Jiu's fingers, and saw a pretty girl sitting at the front of the table, who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a lake-green dress, with a beautiful figure, delicate and convex, a waterfall-like black hair hanging down on her shoulders, eyes like water, phoenix eyes and light eyebrows, a pretty woman.
"How? Pretty, right? That's my niece! Xue Jiu said with a smile, "You just need to invite me to drink two pots, just two pots!" ”
Xue Jiu raised two fingers, and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I can let her meet your excessive request, how about it?" ”
"This?" , Xue Fei's face showed a slightly embarrassed look, but it returned to normal in an instant.
"Go, go, go! Stay and go! Xue Fei shook his head and waved his hand outward.
"Good! I invite this wine! ", Nie Xiaohu said with a smile.
"My lord, you ......", Xue Fei glanced at Cao Xiaohui, with a complicated expression on his face.
Cao Xiaohui was stunned at first, and then had an angry expression, but she just endured it and didn't have a seizure.
"Or is this one... This uncle has a vision! Xue Jiu grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Little Er!" , Nie Xiaohu shouted loudly.
"Here we go!" , the shopkeeper trotted all the way to the table.
"What do you have to say?"
"Go, get him two jugs of good wine, and you'll be rewarded for the rest!" , Nie Xiaohu said and threw a piece of broken silver to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper took the silver and looked at it, then said with a smile: "Okay! Wait a minute! ”
After a short time, two pots of good wine were brought to Xue Jiu's face, Xue Jiu's eyes lit up, he grabbed the wine jug with a smile, and couldn't wait to pour a sip into his mouth.
"Ahh Wine! Xue Jiu wiped his lips, nodded and said, "Wait a minute, this uncle will come!" ”
After speaking, he walked to the girl, walked to the girl, whispered a few words in the girl's ear, the girl turned her head to look at Nie Xiaohu's side, and then slowly stood up, moved lightly, and came to the table of Nie Xiaohu and others.
"What do you have to say? The little woman did so", the girl bowed to everyone, and there was a lot of charm between her eyebrows.
"This uncle, what have you done... If you have any requests, just mention it! Xue Jiu was happy with Nie Xiaohu and poured another sip of wine into his mouth.
Cao Xiaohui couldn't help but have a seizure at this time, and it seemed that as soon as Nie Xiaohu opened her mouth, she was going to flip the table.
"Hmm!" , Nie Xiaohu nodded, "This girl, my request is that you go and settle the account for me!" ”
"Poof!" , Xue Jiu just drank a sip of wine and immediately squirted out.
"I'll go!" , Xue Fei and the others also rolled back from their chairs.
On the third day, early in the morning, the town was full of gongs and drums, firecrackers, men, women, and children poured into the streets, and young men and women rode through the streets on small ponies, all in the same direction, and all rushed towards the square in the center of the town.
Nie Xiaohu and Cao Xiaohui accompanied by Xue Fei came to the town center square, today's weather is sunny, cloudless, breeze, it is a good weather for horse racing, the square is already crowded with people at this time, people are boiling, four colorful flags are flying, gongs and drums are noisy, people are happily looking at the row of horses in the center of the field.
The people in the square formed a "U" shape, and the street leading from the square to the outside of the town was vacated, and a long straight line was drawn on the ground in white plaster, behind which was a row of short ponies neighing and ready to go.
"This horse is really interesting!" , Cao Xiaohui said with a smile.
"That's", Xue Fei couldn't hide the excited expression on his face, "Don't look at this horse, it's not big, but its strength is amazing, adults don't have any problems riding it, and it doesn't run slowly!" ”
"Do you see the young man in Tsing Yi next to you? The one riding the white horse, that is Huang Ziwen, the eldest son of the Huang family; and the red-clothed young man next to him, that is Ma Yunfei, the eldest son of the Ma family; The woman in green in the middle, the one who rode the red horse, that was Ma Yunfei's sister, called Ma Lulu, she was the first to come out last year! ”
Xue Fei kept introducing, and his excitement was overflowing.
