, wonderful and free of pop-ups! Luo Fengtang smiled and nodded, and then told the elders in the main room to go to the manger in the side yard to pick up the horse.
"I'll go with you to lead the horse."
Yang Ruoqing trotted to follow.
"good!"
He glanced at her sideways, looked at no one around, and took her hand.
The two men came to the manger in the side yard specially used to keep mules and horses.
All the mules and horses of the transport team are here. The horse king that Luo Fengtang rode back from the south is also sent here to be fostered whenever he returns to the village.
At this moment, as soon as the two people arrived near the manger, they heard a strange movement inside.
I also heard the sound of the horse king snoring, so domineering and fierce, as if he was issuing a warning to someone.
"What's going on?"
Yang Ruoqing glanced at Luo Fengtang.
Luo Fengtang shook his head: "Go over and have a look!"
The two of them quickly came to the manger, and at a glance they saw the tall and sturdy horse king charging at a young bay horse.
The little bay horse was a young mare that had just grown up.
In the team of mules and horses, it is very lively and active, and is very popular among the mules and horses. Naturally, it is also their favorite.
But at this moment, the originally popular little mare was so frightened by the horse king that it shrank into a corner and could not stop trembling all over.
"Why would the horse king threaten that little mare?" Luo Fengtang was a little confused.
Yang Ruoqing glanced at the formation inside, and then smiled.
"I'm afraid the little mare has fallen in love with the King Horse and wants to tease her and show her love to him."
"It's a pity that I have a lover, so I was not only rejected, but also threatened!" she said.
"What?" Luo Fengtang was even more surprised.
He quickly entered the manger and came to the horse king.
He raised his hand and stroked the horse king's mane that was about to stand on end, "It's just that you don't like the little mare showing love to you. You can't be so cruel to her!"
The tone of his words was as if he were talking to his brother or best friend.
Yang Ruoqing was listening on the side and fully understood this.
The King of Horses is the best war horse.
It will choose its own master.
At the Naadam Conference that day, Luo Fengtang tamed it.
From then on, it recognized Luo Fengtang as its master, traveling from north to south, and then to the battlefield.
It is Luo Fengtang's comrade-in-arms and brother who will live and die together.
At this moment, King Ma's anger seemed to have calmed down a bit after being comforted by Luo Fengtang.
"You are a stallion, and he is a female. You have to be kind to her, do you understand?"
In the manger, Luo Fengtang was still communicating with King Ma.
Yang Ruoqing couldn't help laughing when she heard this.
"You have misunderstood King Ma," she said.
"She's not born cold, it's just that the person she wants to be warm to is not that little mare!"
"Qing'er, what do you mean by this? Why can't I understand it?" Luo Fengtang said.
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips and pointed to the bay-red horse beside her that had been immersed in eating.
"Well, that's the piece of fragrant jade that King Ma wants to pity!"
Following her guidance, what Luo Fengtang saw was the bay-red horse that had been accompanying them in pulling carriages between Qingshui Town and Changping Village.
Luo Fengtang was immediately stunned: "No way? It, it is also a stallion..."
Yang Ruoqing curled her lips: "Love is gender-neutral."
"Qing'er, this..."
"Oh, last time I came back from the north, I saw some clues along the way," she said.
"When I told you, you still didn't believe me and thought I was joking."
"Here, look, as soon as you let go, the horse king will go over and join him, right?"
Luo Fengtang took a look and it was true.
As soon as he loosened the reins, the horse king came to the male bay horse pulling the cart with steady steps.
Rubbing against each other, showing a flattering look...
Luo Fengtang was stunned.
Yang Ruoqing couldn't help laughing.
"Oh my, this horse king is really unyielding."
She said, "The bay-red horse doesn't even want to pay attention to it. It still rubs and rubs people in front of them like this."
"I suspect that if we keep pestering him like this for a while, the bay horse will be bent by the horse king!" she said.
"What do you mean by breaking the bend?" Luo Fengtang asked.
Yang Ruoqing raised her fingers and made a gesture: "Well, this is called bending."
Luo Fengtang's head was covered with black lines.
This girl...
This horse king...
This bay red horse...
He had a feeling of being messy in the wind.
Finally, he led Ma Wang out of the manger and set off to Wanghai County and Huguang County to deliver invitations to Xu Mang and Zuo Junmo.
Yang Ruoqing walked him to the door of the yard and gave him a bag of snacks for dry food on the way.
"As I said before, be careful on the road. If you can't make it back that day, you'll have to wait the next day. Don't rush."
She warned again.
Luo Fengtang nodded: "Don't worry, go back, I will be back tomorrow!"
"Well, go ahead."
After watching his figure disappear, Yang Ruoqing turned around and returned home.
At home, the elders are still busy preparing for the banquet four days later.
Even Tuoba Xian joined this camp.
Tuoba Xian's only son got married, and Tuoba Xian's joy hung in the corners of her eyes and brows.
On the contrary, Yang Ruoqing, the heroine, has become an idler.
Steal half a day's leisure.
She simply took this opportunity to call Xiao Yu, and the two of them went into the village to chat with Cao Bamei, who was newly married.
Old house.
Yang Yongjin went to a restaurant in the town early in the morning and didn't even eat breakfast at home.
Cao Bamei got up early and went to the backyard kitchen to wash rice for breakfast.
Breakfast was cooked and placed in the dining hall next door, and then Tan's share was sent to Tan's room.
After Lao Yangtou, Yang Huaan, Yang Yongqing and Jin had eaten, Cao Bamei ate by herself.
After eating, I washed the pots and dishes and tidied up the kitchen.
In the past, this kitchen was taken care of by the Jin family and was very dirty.
Putting things in order does not happen overnight.
However, Cao Bamei was not discouraged and tidied up a little every day. As time went by, she naturally tidied everything up.
She had just dumped the dirty things in the kitchen into bags of manure outside the backyard, and then returned to her house.
He carried the quilt that she and Yang Yongjin slept on to the wall in the yard to dry.
It's cool in the mornings and evenings in autumn, but the sun is nice during the day. If you take a good photo of the quilt, it will be comfortable to lie down at night, right?
After drying the ones in her own house, she went to take out the ones from Yang Yongqing's house, as well as those from Yang Huaan and Jin's house to dry.
Yang Yongqing went out to play, and Jin went to dig the vegetable garden.
In the room, Yang Huaan sat alone at the table, holding a small notebook in his hand and reading it.
There is not much text on the small paper, and there are some illustrations on each page.
When Yang Huaan was young and studying in the town, he once bought it from a classmate from a well-off family for fifty cents.
I heard that it was a banned book leaked from Qing'an County.
Over the years, Yang Huaan would take it out and look through it when he had nothing to do, taste it, think about it, reflect on it, and fantasize again...
