Fang saw her coming from a distance and asked her, "What do you think, Sister Ruan?"

Everyone else also looked at Ruan Jiaojiao and saw Ruan Jiaojiao unceremoniously taking off the red onyx bracelet on her wrist.

She looked at everyone with a smile, "How can I still not be a gregarious person?"

As a result, she became the first person to take out the lottery. Seeing this, everyone else also took off their jewelry.

The servants held boxes and put them away one by one. There were about ten kinds of jewelry piled up in half of the box, including bracelets, rings, necklaces, and hairpins.

Ruan Jiaojiao's red agate bracelet doesn't stand out among them, but it's not the worst either.

The racecourse on the villa is very large. Even if there are more than ten horses running side by side, it is not crowded. After running out, the distance gradually widens.

Ruan Jiaojiao has never been proficient in riding skills, so it is naturally impossible for her to win the competition. Fortunately, she is not the one who fell behind. There are three or four people behind her.

After the horse racing, there was also archery, with live and dead targets, but she couldn't win either.

But it was Mrs. Jin who impressed her with admiration and won two games in a row to win the lottery.

While she was impressed by Mrs. Jin, there were also people who had the same opinion of her.

"I originally thought that Sister Ruan, who came from Yangzhou, couldn't even ride a horse, but I didn't expect that she could ride and shoot well, and she was pretty good."

"No, today I have personally experienced the saying that people should not be judged by their appearance."

Ruan Jiaojiao recognized the people who came this time. They had met each other at banquets in various families, so they seemed to get along with each other.

As for Mrs. Jin, at first she thought she wouldn't have too many interactions with her, but after getting along with her several times, she discovered that she was not the kind of character who would gossip, and she became familiar with her after a few more encounters.

Among the ladies, Mrs. Jin has the highest status, but she is respectful and polite to everyone, without any arrogance or domineering attitude, which makes people feel superior. She is also very popular in the circle of ladies in Wangcheng.

At this time, she won the first prize but did not accept the prize. "It's fine for everyone to have fun together. It's not necessary. Just keep it."

Regardless of whether she liked these things or not, this move alone won everyone's favor, although she still accepted it in the end.

Everything has been taken out, so there is no reason to take it back.

Since it's fun, there's no need to worry about such a trivial matter.

The next morning, after having dinner, we prepared to go hunting in the mountains and forests. The hunting area was specially divided into high-risk areas and low-risk areas.

The low-risk area is full of small game animals that are kept in captivity. It is rare to even see a goat. At most, they are pheasants, rabbits and foxes.

These people are all women, and they will not go to high-risk areas.

I heard that there is a special area where there are large beasts such as tigers, wolves, and wild boars.

In fact, Ruan Jiaojiao wanted to go to that area, but she also knew that no one would let her go unless she went in secretly.

It's just that Fang was staring at her too closely, and it was really impossible for her to get away with so many people watching.

But even when hunting rabbits in a low-risk area, something almost happened. No one expected that there would be snakes scurrying outside at this time of year.

At that time, Ruan Jiaojiao and Fang were chasing a white rabbit. On the other side of the sudden situation, fortunately, Mrs. Jin quickly cut off the snake hanging on the branch with her knife.

And the snake was hanging on top of the other person's head, only half an arm's length away.

Only Mrs. Jin brought a knife among the people present, and luckily she did.

Ruan Jiaojiao and the others found out later that she and Fang ran away after chasing the rabbit. When they came back, they had pheasants, hares, and a mixed-haired fox on their horses. If they wanted to hunt anything else, it would be true. Difficult.

There were other guests in this villa. A group of male guests went deeper into the forest, which made Ruan Jiaojiao envious.Although I was frightened and dissatisfied, it was still a great harvest. The prey was sent to the kitchen of the villa to be cooked for dinner.

Because of the near miss and the satisfactory result, everyone at the dinner table raised glasses frequently.

A total of 18 people gathered around the large round table. After the atmosphere became more intense, Ruan Jiaojiao drank more than usual when attending banquets. Fang looked at her several times because she was afraid that she had drunk too much.

When someone tried to persuade Ruan Jiaojiao to drink again, she blocked the drink for Ruan Jiaojiao, "Sister Ruan has a light capacity for drinking. How can she be as good at drinking as you guys? Don't make her drink. Let's drink. Let's drink."

For this reason, she was caught and persuaded to have a few drinks, and then Ruan Jiaojiao drank freely. When Fang was obviously a little drunk, she was asked to stop Fang from drinking.

At the end of the day, there were no two people at the table who were particularly sober. One was Mrs. Jin who really didn’t drink much, and the other was Ruan Jiaojiao who didn’t refuse anyone who came in the second half.

It ended with the two people toasting each other across the table, and there was a feeling of sympathy flowing through them.

Ruan Jiaojiao remembered that Lord Jin was a civil servant, and she was really curious about Mrs. Jin.

I heard that their marriage was arranged by the old prince, and many people were not optimistic about it at that time. Mrs. Jin was a general's daughter, and Lord Jin was a gentle and handsome scholar.

However, those who were not optimistic were wrong. The two have been close and in love for ten years.

She didn't know Master Jin well, but there was no doubt that Mrs. Jin was a very smart woman.

After this autumn hunt, the relationship between the two became obviously closer. Only then did Ruan Jiaojiao realize that she was really a light drinker, so she did not dare to drink more.

During the conversation, Ruan Jiaojiao took the initiative to promise her, "If I can specially brew low-alcohol flower wine for you, I will ensure that you can drink it freely and not get drunk easily."

This is how people get along with each other. Today she said that if she makes wine for others, they will do something special for her in the future.

Mrs. Jin heard her mention that she was looking for black iron once, and she became interested.

Before Ruan Jiaojiao's wine was brewed, Mrs. Jin found black iron for her, which was enough for her to make a knife that fit her hand.

And there are still some left, barely enough to make one for Ruan Yu.

That kid can lift a knife weighing more than ten kilograms, which is pretty good. Ruan Jiaojiao doesn't have to embarrass him too much.

By the time He Zong returned from his victory over the bandits, he had a heavy sword in his house, which was as good as his own.

He thought it was for his brother-in-law, so he weighed it in his hands.

"Brother, this is inappropriate."

Then he thought that it was for him, so he performed a set of knife skills with it. It was easy and he liked it.

But thinking that he already had one and had been accustomed to it after using it for many years, he was really reluctant to change it.

Seeing the confusion and reluctance in his eyes, Ruan Jiaojiao still told him the truth.

"This is prepared for me. I like it. I've been coveting your handle for a long time."

Her words misunderstood He Zong. He thought his wife liked it and just let it go.

Since my wife likes it, I can just leave it to gather dust.

It took such a long time to get such a good knife, Ruan Jiaojiao couldn't bear to let it gather dust, and she couldn't let the sword be covered in dust.

It happened that he went out early and came back late every day, and he never saw his delicate little wife playing with a knife in one hand.
