Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

Chapter 139: Horses To Graze

Chapter 139 Horses come to graze

Under the watchful eyes of Huyantu and the people who wanted to win the gold, Meng San struggled and couldn’t get out of Yingtian Mansion for three days, so he had to send someone back to Kang’an City to deliver the letter, and asked his father to send someone to **** him south. At this time, Jiang Erye’s big boat had entered the main channel of the Huai River from the canal, and the speed of the boat was tripled, all the way to the south.

On June 25th, Jiang Erye and his party abandoned the ship and landed in Hangzhou, and took the dry road instead. At this time, Meng San had just arrived in Yiyang.

After wandering on the boat for nearly 20 days, Jiang Liu felt very unaccustomed to stepping on the flat and unswaying land after landing. Jiang Erye even swore to the ground that he would never take the boat again. From the expression on Jiang Lingxiao’s face See, he thinks the same way.

From Kang’an to Hangzhou, and then from Hangzhou to Quanzhou, there are some detours. But they had to detour this part of the road, because the horses for Jiang Erye had to be obtained from Hangzhou. The yamen where Da Zhou is in charge of the world’s horse administration is Taipu Temple. Three years ago, Luo Xushu, the young minister of Taipu Temple, returned to his hometown and returned to Hangzhou.

Luo Xushu has some friendship with Jiang Mian, and Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Luo often have contacts. When the Jiang family had an accident, Luo Xushu also helped to mediate. Jiang Erye needed a good horse for the martial arts exam, so Jiang Song discussed with his mother and asked her to write a letter to Mrs. Luo, hoping to buy a good horse from the Luo family’s horse farm.

After getting off the bus in Hangzhou to rest for a while, Jiang Erye and his party changed to horse carriages and rushed to the Xiaoranshan Racecourse in Luo’s family. When he arrived at Xiaoran Mountain, Jiang Liu looked out through the car window and saw that the peaks here were not high, but the vegetation was excellent. When he arrived at the Luojia Horse Farm at the foot of the mountain, he saw that the grass was flat and broad, the water was gurgling, surrounded by wooden railings. In the enclosed playground, two horses, one gray and one black, chased and ran after each other.

Yayin and Lu Dingyun couldn’t help but say in unison, “Good horse!”

Uncle Qiu also learned some horse scriptures, “Looking at the shapes of these two horses, they seem to have the blood of Dawan horses.”

Jiang Bao excitedly held onto the railing, “Second Master, looking at the rouge horse in the distance, the hooves and feet are amazing!”

Men are good horses, and Erye Jiang is no exception. He looked at the horses in the racecourse with glowing eyes and said, “Master, you want to run the fastest and most stable!”

Yin couldn’t help but complain, “If the second master wants it, Lord Luo may not be willing. Besides, such a horse can’t be won for a few thousand taels of silver!”

Jiang Erye snorted and ordered the driver to rush to Luofu.

Not long after Mrs. Jiang’s letter was sent in, the door of Luo’s house opened, and a gray-haired steward hurried out to greet him, “It really is Mr. Jiang! The old lady is very happy to hear that you are here!”

Jiang Erye smiled, “I haven’t seen you for a few years, Mammy He, stay safe?”

Jiang Liu laughed along with Daddy, Daddy’s ability to remember people, she couldn’t be dissatisfied.

Hearing the words, Mammy He smiled until her teeth could not see her eyes, “My God, the second son still remembers the old face of the slave maid, the slave maid is really… really… Second son, isn’t this the sixth girl? Oh, look at the girl like this , just like when you were a kid!”

Jiang Erye nodded, “It’s Liu’er, this is my son Jiang Ling.”

Hearing Jiang Erye said that the black boy next to him was his son, Mammy He’s smile froze, and she hurriedly saluted Jiang Ling and Jiang Liu and invited them in.

When he saw Mrs. Luo, Jiang Liu immediately knew that Daddy’s horse was stable. Because Mrs. Luo saw her father just like seeing her own son!

“My son, let my aunt take a look. I’ve missed my aunt in the past few years!” Mrs. Luo took Jiang Erye’s hand, her mouth closed with joy, “Is your mother alright?”

“Mother is well, but after my aunt left Beijing, my mother lost the place to visit, and she was too lazy to go to the door. She played with her flowers and plants at home every day.” Jiang Erye smiled, “This time we are here to bring you two Concubine Yang is drunk with a pot of wine.”

Drunken Concubine Yang is a famous product among peonies, and Mrs. Luo is even more happy with flowers and plants. After talking for a while, Mrs. Luo mentioned about the horse, “Auntie will lead you to the horse farm in a while, and you can lead whichever horse you like!”

Ginger stay…

“My nephew doesn’t dare to win my uncle’s heart.” Jiang Erye said with a smile.

As he was talking, the tall and burly old man Luo stepped forward, blowing his beard and staring, “Every horse in the racecourse is in the heart of the old man!”

Jiang Erye got up with his sons and daughters, and after greeting Uncle Luo, he said with a smile, “Uncle gave the one that is leaning on his heart to his nephew?”

Mr. Luo’s eyes widened, “There is a mule near my heart, do you want it?”

Jiang Liu couldn’t help but laughed, causing the fat boy beside Mr. Luo to stare at her. Jiang Ling was unhappy, and turned to sideways to hide her sister from the silly boy.

Jiang Erye nodded, “As long as you can ride Zhongwu to lift people, not to mention a mule, you can even do a donkey.”

“Fuck you!” Mr. Luo scolded, “Riding a donkey to the outfield, you are not ashamed, and the old man is also ashamed!”

“Then it’s not shameful for your uncle to help your nephew choose a match?” Jiang Erye said.

Mr. Luo snorted and did not speak. Jiang Erye turned and asked, “Is this Yingtai?”

Mrs. Luo smiled and said, “Yes, your eldest brother was afraid that the old couple would be alone here, so he sent Biostar.”

Luo Yingtai clasped his fists and saluted, “Yingtai has seen Second Uncle Jiang.”

Jiang Erye patted his shoulder, “That’s your brother Ling and sister Liu’er, go and play with them.”

“Yes.” The chubby Luo Yingtai immediately ran to Jiang Liu’s side, revealing two dimples with a smile, “Liu’er sister!”

Jiang Liu stood up and returned the salute, “Byostar-brother-good.”

This younger sister is not only beautiful, but also gentle and soft-spoken, much stronger than his elder sister, Luo Yingtai nodded vigorously, “Sister Liu’er, shall we go to the horse farm to see the ponies? There is a little white horse that just landed. It’s so pretty!”

Daddy came to choose a horse, so Jiang Liuer naturally wouldn’t refuse, let him take his hand and walk out, Jiang Ling had no choice but to follow with a dark face.

Mrs. Luo saw Jiang Liu’s slow movements and quickly said, “Bingtai slow down, don’t fall on your sister Liu’er.”

Mr. Luo saw this, bent down and hugged Jiang Liu, “Go, Grandpa will show you the horse!”

Although this old man has a loud voice, his weight is not light. Jiang Liu dare not tire him, “Grandpa, Liu’er-heavy.”

Mr. Luo laughed, “Your weight is not as good as a foal that has just landed. Grandpa can hold it, let’s go, stay and help your father choose a horse!”

Speaking of horse selection, Jiang Liu immediately stopped and nodded obediently, “Okay.”

Her voice made everyone laugh again. After arriving at the racecourse, Mr. Luo whistled, and after a while, a dozen horses came running over. They were black, white, yellow, cyan, and jujube red. They looked great together.

Jiang Ling looked at the horses, his eyes lit up, he couldn’t help reaching out to touch, but his father held his hand. Mr. Luo put down Jiang Liu and asked her to go to see the foal with her grandson. Jiang Liu, who wanted to watch his father choose a horse, had to pull his brother and follow Luo Yingtai to the stable to see the foal.

After the children left, Mr. Luo said to Mr. Jiang, “Pull a handful of grass and see which horse will eat it.”

Is this the way to choose? Jiang Erye turned around, pulled out a handful of green grass, put his arm into the railing, and shook the grass in his hand at a snow-white horse.

Who knew that the white horse turned around in disdain, and a short yellow horse next to it came over and opened its mouth to bite. Jiang Erye was not happy anymore, he withdrew his hand, walked over to the white horse, and coaxed nicely, “Good horse, come and eat grass.”
