shock!She can travel through time

Chapter 155 I am a sports genius
"What is this thing? Let me see what good things a small barbarian country like the Western Regions can have." Lu Ying'er let out a sigh, and pointed to her servant.

Yun Chang didn't refute, and offered the mirror with both hands, Lu Ying'er's personal maid stepped forward to take it, and turned around and handed it to her who was sitting on the horse.

The first time Yunshang saw the little lady at home playing with the mirror, she was startled, so why would the child play with it at will!It hurts so much to touch it, things like colored glaze can't stand being dropped.

But my wife didn't care about it, casually said that this was a little thing given to her by her senior brother when she was a child, it was nothing important, and there were several hidden aspects.

Later, Lin Wanwan really took out two mirrors, one large and one small, one was placed on the dressing table, and the other was carried with her, which was much lighter than a heavy bronze mirror.Although the bronze mirrors made by craftsmen are initially light, they are not easy to maintain and need to be polished frequently. Naturally, they are far less practical than glazed mirrors.

This incident also made Yunshang full of admiration for his wife's senior brother Ranger who lived in the legend. With such a powerful senior brother who is also a brother and father, it is no wonder that no matter what my wife does, she always has a sense of confidence.

Holding the double-sided mirror in her hand, Lu Yinger was surprised to find that the two sides of the mirror were different. One side showed the person completely, while the other side seemed to magnify the picture, which was extremely miraculous.

The world's first exquisite and complex glass mirror was made in 1507 by Italian Venetians Andrea and Gallo.As soon as it appeared in the market, it caused a sensation throughout Europe, and became a fashionable good thing that was sought after by the princes and nobles at that time.

Italy even legislated specifically for this purpose, not allowing the secret recipe for making mirrors to be leaked to foreign countries, and anyone who leaks the secret will be executed immediately.Because of this strict law, Italy dominated the mirror market for a full 60 years, and finally the French ambassador to Italy tried his best to smuggle the mirror technician back to France and successfully stole the secret recipe.

At this moment, the mirror that Yunshang took out was far more exquisite than the mirror made of tin foil and mercury in Italy. It's no wonder that such a thing appeared under the noses of the Tang Dynasty teenagers in the fourth year of Zhenguan, so it didn't cause a sensation.

Seeing Lu Ying'er's face changing, a young girl beside her said curiously, "Ying'er, let me have a look at this glass mirror."

Lu Ying'er with a complicated complexion handed out the mirror and spread it around, everyone's eyes on Lin Wanwan changed.

At first, the servants of the other party said that this thing came from the imperial palace of the Western Regions. Everyone just thought that this country lady was talking big. After seeing the true face of Lushan Mountain in Liulijing, everyone believed it.

Such a good treasure, apart from the nobles in the palace, how could it be possible to have it outside.But how did this country girl get it? How could she be so rich?And it was so casually used as a polo prize!This is too heroic, and no one present can match it.

Which family's old fairy is the hermit who adopted her?
Lu Ying'er was silent for a long time, then gritted her teeth, stretched out her hand to pick off the pearl and jade necklace hanging around her neck, and her maidservant exclaimed: "Madam can't do it!"

"Shut up!" Lu Ying'er glared at her, finally took off the Yingluo, and raised it high towards Lin Wanwan, "Your Western Region glazed mirror is certainly rare, but my Yingluo is not ordinary, so compare."

"Okay." Lin Wanwan smiled lightly, and sat leisurely in the gazebo.On the contrary, Xiao Ronghua and the others were in a hurry, this time the game was too big, no matter whether they won or lost, they couldn't afford it.

Lin Wanwan said to Xiao Xianghua: "Cousins, don't be burdened, compare with peace of mind, I support you."

Xiao Xianghua turned his head to look at Lin Wanwan in the pavilion, pondered for a moment, then nodded heavily: "I will do my best."

"So do we." Xiao Ronghua and the others also quickly expressed their views.

Because the lottery is priceless, this originally ordinary eight-person women's polo match has become dazzling.

Among the two teams, the red team is headed by Lu Ying'er, there is also a young lady from the county magistrate's family, and two noble daughters of local gentry in Qiantang; the young team is headed by Xiao Xianghua, and the rest are sisters from the Xiao family.

Lin Wanwan and Xiao Qingyu were sitting in the gazebo, beside Yunshang and Hua Nong were peeling walnuts for them, and they were watching the competition on the field with great interest while eating.

Fishing out a wreath made of suet jade and big pearls with a mirror worth a hundred yuan, no matter how you calculate it, it feels like taking advantage, so Lin Wanwan's mind is very relaxed.

On the field, the two teams come and go, it is very lively, and each has its own outcome.

After looking at it for a while, Lin Wanwan suddenly said: "Why does Lu Ying'er and her horse look much taller than her cousins' horses, so we are at a disadvantage."

Xiao Xianghua's maid covered her mouth and smiled: "Miss Lin, the ladies in our family ride donkeys instead of horses, so naturally they are shorter."

"Ah?" Lin Wanwan was stunned for a while in surprise, and then suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

It is indeed said in the data that when women in the Tang Dynasty played polo, most of them rode donkeys instead of horses.Compared with tall horses, donkeys are docile, petite and easier to control.

A large number of relics have been unearthed from the tomb of Mrs. Cui in Boling County, including lead stirrups and donkey bones.Scholars found that the donkeys in Cui's tomb were small in size, had abnormal movement patterns, and were well-fed, which supports the inference that the noble ladies in the Tang Dynasty played polo and rode donkeys.

Lin Wanwan couldn't tell the difference between a horse and a donkey at first, but now she was reminded by the maid, and finally she was able to tell the difference.The size comparison between the two is quite obvious, but a tall horse is not necessarily better than a short donkey. In terms of maneuverability and cooperation with the owner, the donkey on the field is even stronger.

Half a stick of incense time passed, and it turned out that the Xiao sisters who were riding the donkey were slightly better. The score is now three for the red team and four for the blue team.

"The women in the Tang Dynasty are not bad. This youthful appearance is pleasing to look at." Lin Wanwan commented slowly.When she was their age, she buried herself in books all day long, forgot to sleep and eat in order to go to school, struggled hard in the sea, and even did sports activities, that was also rushing to get points.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and the gentry's daughter of the red team suddenly pulled the reins and charged straight towards Xiao Xianghua.

Lin Wanwan stood up abruptly, her heart skipped a beat.

It was too late to say it, and then it was too fast, Xiao Xianghua suddenly made a move, and avoided the moment of the collision, but because the turning point was too big, he couldn't hold back his strength for a while, so he staggered and fell a few steps. fell down.

Everyone on the sidelines hurriedly rushed in, but the other side heard a "bang!", and the red team took advantage of this opportunity to make a comeback, as if the accident here had never happened.
