Chapter 378: Galloping Horses

readx;

Anyway, I couldn't sleep, and it was already dawn, so I got up and walked out for my first morning on Princeton Island. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When I went downstairs, I saw that the maids in the Zhonghua Building had already started their day's work. I went into the bathroom, washed my face, and went outside into the garden, breathing in the fresh morning air.

I took a deep breath and felt that the air in this land was really much fresher than in the cities in China. I felt refreshed. Suddenly, there was an urge to work out on such a beautiful morning.

I think before I entered the bank to work, I still had the habit of exercising early. Every morning, I always have to run a kilometer or two before I go to school or something else. It's just that after work, people gradually become lazy. This good habit slowly slackened.

Now, I am in a foreign land, there is no work, there is no pressure of life, the beautiful morning, the fresh air, let me have the best to exercise again. Without thinking much about it, I moved my wrists and ankles, and jogged from the Zhonghua Building to the outside of the Zheng family's manor.

Maybe I wasn't done yet, so I ran back down the road leading to the city, planning to run another kilometer and then go back the way I came.

After running a short distance, I heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me, and a horse seemed to be gradually catching up. I ran to the side of the road to make way and looked back. But I saw a young girl riding a white horse, trotting, not far behind me.

I recognized the knight on the horse, and I remember that when I first came yesterday, she was following my carriage all the way to introduce herself. If I remember correctly, she should be called Zheng Lili, a lovely distant cousin.

Seeing me turn around, Zheng Lili immediately waved her hand at me happily and shouted, "Brother Umbrella, good morning!" ”

I had to nod and smile, and only when she was parallel to me did I say, "Miss Zheng, did you go out so early?" ”

Zheng Lili raised her mouth and said a little unhappily: "I call you Brother Umbrella, why do you call me Miss Zheng?" I'm the younger sister of Sister Lovely and it stands to reason that you should call me Lily or my sister. ”

I sweated, so I had to say, "Okay, sister Lily, where are you going so early?" ”

Zheng Lili was happy at this time, grinned, and said, "Brother Umbrella, where you go, I will go." Isn't it lonely to see you running alone? Then I'll accompany you, okay? ”

Thinking of Sister Wei's mother warning me last night that you should be careful that you will encounter many incredible things, and then thinking of the unusual enthusiasm of those Zheng family girls last night, I really felt a sudden shock in my heart and became a little vigilant. laughed at the moment and said, "No need, I'm just running away, if Sister Lily has something, then be busy with your go." ”

Zheng Lili didn't seem to understand the meaning of my words, and Gege smiled: "I'm fine, it's summer vacation, except for helping the family herd horses, I have a lot of free time at other times." Brother Umbrella, have you eaten breakfast? If you haven't eaten it, will you eat it at my house in a while? ”

I had to stop abruptly and look at this young but bold and enthusiastic Zheng girl with a wry smile. When Zheng Lili saw me stop, she also hurriedly pulled the horse rope and turned the horse's head around. Stopped in front of me and asked, "What's wrong?" Don't you run away? ”

I shook my head and said, "It's almost, I haven't run for a long time, so it's not good to run for too long." I'm going back, thank you for your kindness. Still, I think I should have breakfast with Keran. ”

Zheng Lili pursed her lips, suddenly got off the horse, rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you are Sister Keren's boyfriend, so naturally you should go to accompany her first." By the way, Brother Umbrella, do you know how to ride a horse? I'm the most purebred Princeton horse. If you like it, then I'll give it to you, how about it? ”

I looked at Zheng Lili's batch of white horses, tall and handsome, and snow-white. Although I don't know about horses, I can see that this horse is very valuable and strong. It's just the name of this horse that makes me laugh and say, "Baiyunju? The name of this horse, is Baiyun? ”

Zheng Lili smiled: "Yes! When I was eighteen years old, my father gave me a gift. Do you like it? If you like it, then now you're her master! ”

Looking at this beautiful white horse, I really like it. The name of the horse, in particular, reminded me of someone. I walked over and stroked the white horse's neck gently, and said with a smile, "What a handsome horse, but thank you, Sister Lily, I can't have this horse." ”

Zheng Lili was stunned for a moment and said, "Why?" Don't you think this horse is good enough? Let me tell you, Baiyunju is the purest and best horse in our family, and I usually regard it as a treasure. If it weren't for you, Brother Umbrella, I wouldn't have sent her out easily. ”

I smiled and said, "Well, although I don't know about horses, I can also see the value and preciousness of this white cloud horse." How can I accept such a valuable gift? ”

Zheng Lili was a little anxious and said, "Why can't you accept it?" At Princeton, it is a custom and etiquette to give a beloved horse to your best friend. If you don't, you're looking down on me! ”

Oh? When I heard this, I hesitated a little. I have just arrived in the kingdom and really do not understand the customs and habits here. What if it's rude not to accept it?

After thinking about it, I changed my way and said, "Don't get me wrong, I don't look down on you, because I don't know how to ride a horse at all, and I don't even know how to raise a horse. Otherwise, I'll live here for a long time, until I've learned how to ride a horse and become familiar with how to raise her. If you still want to give it to me, then I'll take it, how about it? ”

Zheng Lili's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Really? Will you stay here for a long time? ”

I laughed and said, "Maybe...... I could live here for the rest of my life. ”

Zheng Lili was overjoyed when she heard this, and suddenly handed over the horse rope in her hand, and said happily: "Isn't it easy to learn to ride a horse?" Come on, now you can go up and try it. Baiyunju is very well-behaved, and after you ride it, it won't throw you down. ”

I was stunned, looking at this tall and beautiful little mare, and my heart was quite moved. After taking the leash, I said, "Is that okay?" Are you sure she's going to be well-behaved? ”

Zheng Lili Gege smiled and said, "Don't worry, can I not know the horse I trained?" In Princeton, boys who can't ride horses by the age of sixteen are looked down upon. Go up, and if you're still worried, I can sit behind you and protect you!" ”

I was embarrassed on the spot, thinking about it, I'm an adult man, what am I afraid of riding a horse. It's a big deal to fall, and since I'm planning to live here, I'm going to learn how to ride a horse that every Princetonian is good at.

Thinking of this, I no longer hesitated, stretched out my feet and stepped on the stirrup, and the horseback action that scholars had seen in movies and television suddenly split my legs and rode up.

Bai Yunju was really well-behaved, and after I rode up, she didn't move. For the first time in my life, I was riding on a horse, and I felt a little excited and new. It's just that I don't know how to get the horse to run. I had to look at Zheng Lili below and said, "What should I do next?" How do you get a horse to run? ”

Zheng Lili's eyes flashed with a sly smile, and she suddenly stretched out her hands to support the horse's buttocks, and with the help of her strength, she jumped up like this, and sat behind me with her buttocks. Before I could react, she clamped her legs hard on the horse, waved her palm on the horse's buttocks, and shouted with a smile: "Clamp your legs, and start running!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Bai Yunju had already hissed, and a flying column rushed forward. I couldn't help but shake it, and quickly clamped the horse's body with my legs. Frightened, he shouted, "Hey! I wasn't ready, why did you come up? ”

Immediately, I felt that Zheng Lili's two hands had tightly wrapped around my waist, and in the sound of the wind in my ears, I heard her shouting: "Hold on to the horse rope, grasp the direction, listen to me teach you slowly, and soon you will be!" ”

At this moment, I had no choice but to do my best to start learning the horse technique according to what Zheng Lili said. Not long after, Baiyunju rushed into the pasture, and on the vast grassland, it was like lightning.

Half an hour later, I had already mastered the art of my horse. Commanding the white cloud horse to the east for a while, and to the west for a while. Baiyunju is worthy of being a thoroughbred Princeton horse, and after such a long gallop, she still did not slow down at all.

Gradually, I felt a little sure, so I tried to pull the horse rope, and with a sound in my mouth, the white cloud horse slowly stopped galloping and stopped on the grassland.

I excitedly said to Zheng Lili behind me, "Sister Lili, will you let me try it alone?" ”

Zheng Lili smiled: "Okay! I see how fast you're learning, so I'll let you try it alone. ”

With that, she turned over and dismounted, and while retreating, she said, "Brother Umbrella, be careful, control the balance of your body, you can do it!" ”

I smiled and waved my hand to her, and following her example just now, I pinched the horse's belly hard, patted the horse's ass with my right hand, and shouted, "Drive!" ”

The white cloud horse moved in response and galloped on the grassland again. When I first knew how to ride a horse, I was very excited, and I rode the horse and galloped in the vast pasture. Gradually, I have become more and more able to master the balance of my body. The wind is whistling in your ears, and the blue sky and white clouds are in the distance. On the endless grassland, I enjoyed the fun and excitement brought by galloping horses!
