Beautiful step by step

Chapter 85

In the distance is a long dragon-like convoy. Wei Wei is riding on a black horse, holding a bow in one hand, letting go of the rein, pulling out an arrow from behind, pressing it on the string and pulling it slightly. Break through the air and rush towards the person thirty steps away.

At the same time, Yan Heng next to him tensed up, and the arrow also left the string.Arrows that were getting closer were aligned in midair, and the iron arrows collided, sparking a spark in midair, and falling down together.

"call."

Wei Wei let out a long sigh of relief, and reined in the reins with lingering fear.

"How many times is this?"

When Yan Heng was silent, a shrill female voice sounded from thirty yards away.He raised his head, looked at Mrs. Tong San who was charging aggressively, took a step diagonally forward, and stood firmly in front of Wei Wei.

Wei Wei took a deep breath: "A dozen times, right?"

Mrs. Tong San ran over staggeringly, covered her left waist, and looked at Wei Wei with eyes wide open: "In broad daylight, you shoot arrows at me."

From the corner of his eye, Yan Heng looked not far away, and there were two arrows lying on the grass: "This arrow was shot by Madam Tongju first, right?"

Didn't hit it...

Apart from disappointment, Mrs. Tong San was more shocked.She has been with the girl of the Zhao family since she was a child, and she is also the younger sister of the current Shangshufu.The girl likes riding and shooting, and she has also worked hard to practice, and her riding and shooting skills are no worse than those of the elite soldiers in the Northwest Army.Just now she had fired two arrows in a row to confuse, but she didn't expect the third arrow, which was carefully aimed, to miss.

Looking to the side from the corner of the eye, Mrs. Tong San quickly denied the judgment.She didn't shoot in the air, but was stopped halfway by another arrow.

Look at the integrity of the two arrows, it is arrow to arrow.

She looked at Yan Zhenfu in shock, he was turning his head to gently hold Mrs. Yan's hand, coaxing gently.In the cold morning on the grassland, the warmth radiating from his body made the surroundings feel warm.But the ubiquitous temperature forcibly bypassed her, forming a vacuum around her.

Touching the waist that was swept by the arrow, Mrs. Tong San felt a chill in her heart.Looking at Mrs. Yan who was carefully protected by Yan Zhenfu, her shoulders drooped.Mrs. Yan is more beautiful than her, better at housekeeping than her, more elegant than her, and her husband is more competitive than her. Everything makes her jealous, but together she is powerless to envy.

"I was a little scared just now."

Opposite Mrs. Tong San, Wei Wei said pitifully.Then she looked up at Yan Heng, her bright eyes were full of trust: "But when I think of Ah Heng by my side, I'm not so afraid."

Seen by Ah Mao's adoring eyes, Yan Heng's heart is even tighter than when he received the imperial decree to be promoted to governor.

"never mind."

Wei Wei nodded: "Yes, I know."

After finishing speaking, Wei Wei moved to the side, walked out of Yan Heng's shadow, and met Mrs. Tong Juan's eyes.

"In the past five or six days, you practiced riding and archery, and you shot thirteen arrows towards me. The first twelve arrows, including the first two arrows this morning, were intentionally missed, just for the final hit. Madam Tong, What kind of enmity do I have with you, as for letting you target me like this? Have you ever thought about what consequences you would bear if something happened to me if the arrow just hit it? "

Opposite her, Mrs. Tong San, who was completely weak, froze.

That's right, Yan Zhenfu's position is higher than that of her husband-in-law, and Mrs. Yan is also connected with Zhenbeihoufu.If something really happened to Mrs. Yan, she would not be able to bear the wrath of any party.

Is she obsessed with ghosts?
"I..." Madam Zhenfu trembled, not knowing what to say for a while.

Wei Wei shook his head helplessly: "How old is Mrs. Tongsan older than me? Originally, I didn't want to say these words. But seeing your methods are getting more and more encouraging, I have to say a few words even if you overstep. You are not a three-year-old child, you have already Adults or even married people should have their own unique judgments, can you use your brain before doing things? The head you pick on your neck is not just for decoration."

Use your brain?Mrs. Tong San's heart was touched, as if no one had ever said this to her.Although her natal family is prominent in the Northwest, it is considered to be a small family that relies on the breath of the Zhao family.Before she got married, her mother kept telling her to practice riding and archery well, and to stand in front of the girl from the Zhao family if something happened.She practiced riding and archery hard, and she got a good marriage, and got into the sedan chair under the happy eyes of her parents. She became the wife of the official family, thinking that she could enjoy a lifetime of happiness.

But is she really happy?

Mrs. Tong San was lost in confusion, using her brain, as if she understood something.

Standing opposite, Wei Wei didn't seem to be moved by her staying there.Thinking of the past half month since the governor of Chu's birthday banquet, and now outside the city gate of Youzhou, Mrs. Tong San has repeatedly provoked her.Scrambling for buckets, rations, and camps. In the past few days, they have been harassed many times when they practice riding and shooting.She happened to be bored and panicked, and she also took it as an adjustment to the boring journey.But this does not mean that she has a bodhisattva temperament and can tolerate her intention to shoot.

Thinking of this, her eyes turned cold, and she gulped down a bad breath: "Of course, Mrs. Tongju is different from us."

What's the difference?The bewildered Mrs. Tong San suddenly raised her head, she was eager to listen to Mrs. Yan's teaching.

Wei Wei touched her face, then looked at Yan Heng, and blinked without concealing the malice on her face: "The heads on our necks can be used for decoration, but Mrs. Tongjuan's head is so long, tsk tsk... no matter how I dress up, I can't stand it. For decoration."

To Wei Wei's surprise, Mrs. Tong San didn't make much rebuttal.Her shoulders drooped, and her whole body was as lost as a stray dog ​​abandoned by the owner beside the trash can on the road.

Most of Wei Wei's burning anger dissipated, and she led the horse, and she sighed: "I was too angry just now, Mrs. Tongju, don't take it too seriously. If you are troubled by your appearance, you might as well take a look at Liangzhou These officials in the city, do they all look better than Pan An?"

Mrs. Tong San has lost the ability to think, so she can only follow her words.The appearance of these officials in Liangzhou City, the governor of Chu is short and dark; Commander Wu was born as a book boy, and his appearance can only be regarded as ordinary. Facing Wu Shangshu, it is inevitable that he will shy away from his master and servant for many years; The judge is also a wretched fat man... After counting them all, it seems that except for Yan Zhenfu in front of him, the rest of the officials are very ordinary in appearance.

"In Liangzhou, there are so many good-looking people. Why are they the only ones who can become masters? Because they come from good backgrounds? But how many dandies in the capital's families have been mediocre all their lives. The most important thing is for these officials What matters is your own intelligence. Mrs. Tongju, whether it is me or other good-looking women, we will not have much influence on your life. It is your own efforts that really determine whether you are respected by your husband-in-law and wisdom."

The Virgin Mary had another attack, Wei Wei picked up two arrows on the ground, and returned the one engraved with the symbol of Tongpan Mansion to Mrs. Tongpan.

"It's just a word of emotion. If Mrs. Tongju thinks it's wrong, just ignore it."

Returning with her own arrow in hand, Wei Wei turned her head, just in time to see Yan Heng's admiring gaze.The little regret in her heart quickly disappeared without a trace. No matter what others think, she only wants to be ashamed of her heart.

"Aheng, it's getting late. We're going into Youzhou City in the afternoon, and we should go back to the motorcade to pack up."

Yan Heng nodded, led the horse and walked to her side, and after protecting her to get on the horse and sit firmly, he turned over neatly and rode on the horse's back, holding the rein to protect her horse's side.

The sound of hoofbeats went away, and another horse ran over with hooves.He stopped when he was close to Mrs. Tong San, walked over slowly, and put his horse's head in front of Mrs. Tong San.The brown-yellow horse hair was a little dull, and the wet eyes seemed to silently comfort her.

"Am I a failure?"

Mrs. Tongpan gently stroked the horse's head. This old horse followed her when it was a pony, and helped her learn how to ride and shoot. Nearly 20 years.

Most of her life was like a dream. After waking up from the dream, she found that she had been getting stronger all these years, and her whole life had become a joke.

Looking up at Yan Zhenfu and his wife who were riding not far away, a relieved smile rose from the corner of her lips, and she said softly: "I am very grateful for the words of emotion."

Controlling the horse easily, Wei Wei took out the scabbard from her bosom.Holding it in the palm of your hand, with a dexterous twist of your fingers, you can easily pull a knife.Under the gradually dazzling sunlight on the grassland, all kinds of gemstones on the scabbard shone like a kaleidoscope, dazzling people.

Wei Wei said pleasantly: "A Heng, you see I have learned."

It's really not in vain that she forgot to sleep and eat these days, and started practicing with a dagger as soon as she set up camp at night.

Thanks to the high quality of the dagger, she dropped it so many times without dropping a single gem.

On the parallel horses, Yan Heng took out a simple dagger from his arms.He easily pulled a knife flower and threw it out. The scabbard and dagger separated in mid-air. After turning two flowers respectively, he caught the dagger first, and then the tip of the dagger turned upward. The scabbard was easily put on the dagger after turning.

The whole process was smooth and flowing, accompanied by his expressionless face, which made Wei Wei look handsome.

"sharp."

After worshiping, she showed a sly face: "Okay, it turns out that Ah Heng is hiding something. Until he can't learn this trick, Ah Heng will always be on the floor."

The expressionless face finally cracked, and the deep annoyance almost turned into substance.

Yan Heng said aggrievedly: "Ah Mao is more kind to Madam Tongpan than to me."

Why did he suddenly bring up the judge's wife?Wei Wei thought for a while, and when she provoked others a few times, Ah Heng couldn't help but protect her all the time, leaving her nowhere to display her [-]th class martial arts.However, just now he was uncharacteristically silent, and could even reduce his sense of existence to the minimum.

"Ah Heng has long seen that Mrs. Tong San has remorse?"

Although it was a question, Wei Wei's tone was very firm.But at the same time, she was [-]% uncertain. If this was the case, then Yan Heng's perception would be too sharp.

"No, I just heard about some of Tong San's deeds."

Wei Wei thought of the ugly and fat Tong San, and it could be seen from Chu Governor's birthday banquet that he hated Tong San's wife very much.

Seeing no one around, she taunted: "I hate this Tong San even more than Mrs. Tong San. Mrs. Tong San's appearance is born, but Tong San eats so fat purely because he can't control his mouth the day after tomorrow. Tong San's wife didn't despise him for being ugly, yet he repeatedly humiliated Tong San's wife in front of a large group of people."

It is the most disgusting thing for a straight male cancer who treats himself more leniently than others, and thinks that he is a man.

Yan Heng didn't care about the appearance, but he also looked down on Tong San: "When he first entered the grassland, Mrs. Qian was sent back to Liangzhou by Mrs. Chu. At that time, Tong San proposed to send Mrs. Tong San back along the way. .”

Wei Wei had also doubted that it was also unprovoked, why Mrs. Chu would resist the possible pressure of public opinion, stretch her hands to control elders like Mrs. Qian, and ignore Mrs. Tongju, who is of the same generation.Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chu, who was in charge of the meeting with the official wife of Liangzhou, didn't care about it, and the others didn't say much. Mr. Tongsan, who should be on the side of Mrs. Tongsan, stabbed him in the back.

This is no longer just a scumbag, but a fighter among scumbags!
"Madam Tong must know, right?"

Yan Heng nodded: "He asked in front of Mrs. Tongju."

Wei Wei couldn't find a suitable adjective, she was just a little regretful: "A Heng, do you think what I just said was too serious?"

"not heavy."

Wei Wei, who was planning to conduct a self-criticism, looked up "Teng" in surprise: "Not heavy?"

Yan Heng nimbly rode the horse closer, and patted her on the back comfortingly: "The one who speaks too loudly is Tong San himself. Madam Tong San has nowhere to vent her grievances, and she wants to vent her anger on Ah Mao. The one who was almost injured was Ah Mao, you You should be angry, and you should speak more seriously. In the final analysis, we have nothing to do with the general judgment, and there is no need to be responsible for what he caused."

Wei Wei opened his eyes suddenly, and the corners of his lips curled up in a gentle curve.

"Auntie isn't angry anymore?"

"En." Wei Wei looked at Yan Heng with a funny face.

"Then tonight I can..."

"Can't!"

For the past few days, Wei Wei has been learning how to draw a knife, and if she didn't learn it every day, she drove Yan Heng under the bed to make a bed on the floor.The first day was to fight Ah Luo, but later she found that driving him to bed at night and slapping him in the face when he woke up during the day would make him happy for a long time.

Between one picture and one relaxation, not to mention the fun, the sweetness of love that the two gradually smiled after getting married has returned.

It wasn't until this point that she understood what it meant to be married and avant-garde's mother wanted to fill her mind with the relationship between husband and wife.No matter how good the relationship is between two people, if they get along day and night after getting married, they will get tired of each other in the day-to-day acquaintance.And if you want to maintain a high quality of life, you have to be careful.

Firmly refusing, Wei Wei held his chin high and tightened the reins half a horse forward.From a distance, she is a proud queen, and Yan Heng is a guardian knight who follows devoutly.

"Ah, I want to ask, can I cook a few more dishes for tonight's dinner? Youzhou City is surrounded by plains, and the vegetables in the city should be fresher. We ate too much meat along the way, which is not good for our health. "

The proud queen, Wei Wei, completely froze her hand holding the rein, and her face was filled with embarrassment.

"Follow you, drive."

Her own carriage was in sight, and she sped up the horse and galloped over in a few breaths.Stopping in front of the carriage, she quickly turned over and got off the horse.After putting her feet on the ground, her mood gradually calmed down, and she realized belatedly that she had been tricked.

Yan Heng always cooks three meals for the two of them. He is good at cooking and she is not picky about food. No matter what is served on the table, the two of them can eat very happily.For so many days, Yan Heng never asked her what she wanted to eat before cooking.

Seeing her coming, Batu drove the carriage out of the convoy and parked it on the side of the road.Gu Yu jumped off the carriage behind, holding something in his hand.

"Madam, there is a letter from the capital."

"Oh?"

It seemed that it was not yet time for Wei's mother to send a letter. Wei Wei raised his head suspiciously, let go of the rein and greeted Batu, and the Mongolian guy automatically tied the horse to the shaft of the cart.After taking the envelope, Wei Wei weighed it, the letter was a bit thin.After opening it, there was only one page inside, and the handwriting on it was no longer scribbled by Wei Mama and A Yun, but the neat block letters of a person from a professional background.

The letter is written in classical Chinese, and the choice of words and sentences is extremely particular.Fortunately, the above things are simple, and after reading it twice, Wei Wei probably understands.

When Yan Heng rode over slowly, she had lost the sullenness just now, but was full of surprises: "A Heng, Brother Ding is responsible for the maintenance of the carriages and horses of the holy driver's west tour, and he brought my mother and A Yun together .”
