Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 84: Black horse treading on snow

Views:

Zhao Changhe was so angry after being tricked by a fool that he wanted to go to the Cui family ancestral temple to gather everyone and declare "I am an idiot".

I really think Yangyang is stupid!

Fortunately, Hanhan did not press on, because her face was already burning hot. She couldn't continue to flirt with him, and she was too embarrassed to get into his arms.

After all, she is just a little girl. She has awakened her skills but she doesn’t know how to use them…

The only sounds in the room for a moment were the disordered breathing of both parties, and their eyes were avoiding each other when they looked at each other.

What do you want me to give you

The man must admit in his heart that he really has such a thought.

Looking at her rosy little face, I really want to bite it and kiss it.

Especially since I knew she wouldn't refuse.

But…

Zhao Changhe gritted his teeth and decided to hide!

He finally stopped avoiding Yangyang's gaze, bent down slightly, and held the little girl's hot face with both hands: "Yangyang."

"Ah..." Cui Yuanyang was both shy and happy, and her heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her throat...

Didn't Brother Zhao ever behave so intimately towards her? He had always been like a younger sister to her, which inevitably made her feel that Brother Zhao never had that kind of intention towards her, but was just riding a tiger and it was difficult to back down. After three years, maybe nothing had happened.

But today... Although this action was also like treating a younger sister, especially the height difference between them, he actually had to bend down to hold the little face, which made the scene more funny for no reason.

But such a sister is either a biological sister or a love sister, and I would never do this to an ordinary sister...

Zhao Changhe rubbed the little face and said softly: "Yangyang, I know what you are worried about... But Brother Zhao likes Yangyang very much."

Cui Yuanyang’s shyness was almost gone, and there seemed to be light in her eyes, sparkling.

"But Yangyang is too young." Zhao Changhe continued to rub his face as if he was kneading dough. "We agreed to three years, so that's three years. What's the big deal about the human list? When I step onto the human list, I will come to the Cui family in style and see my tall and graceful Yangyang, okay?"

Cui Yuanyang was obviously very happy to hear this, but he muttered, "Liar, you said you like Yangyang like this, don't grow up."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said, "Don't let your brain grow bigger, but let other parts grow bigger."

"Bah. You're not a good person!" The little rabbit stomped his feet in anger, broke free from his face-rubbing move, hugged his face and ran out of the study: "The Epochal Classics are on the upper shelf, you can look for them yourself."

Zhao Changhe stood up straight and let out a long sigh.

It’s actually that simple, why bother

Looking at the little girl's back as she ran away in panic, I felt like I was smiling at her. Isn't that good

He poured himself a cup of tea in a good mood and leisurely looked for a book to read on Cui Wenjing's bookshelf.

Cui Wenjing only talked about the general situation. If he didn't take this opportunity to read more historical details, when would he wait? This was the collection of the Cui family's patriarch's books. A top family had been exploring and researching this matter for many years. Now sharing it with him, this might be more significant than obtaining the Great Xia Dragon Bird.

Drinking tea, reading books, and flirting with blushing girls, is there any more enjoyable life than this

… …

"Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao!"

The next morning, Zhao Changhe got up from the guest house, and as usual, he sent away the maids who tried to help him wash up, and then he started practicing sword as usual.

Less than half an hour into the practice, Cui Yuanyang, who had fled for his life the day before, came over again excitedly and asked, "Practicing swordplay again?"

"Yeah, your father said to have someone make some modifications to the Great Xia Dragon Bird. A whole night has passed and there is still no sign of the knife... Huh?" Zhao Changhe answered casually, turned his head to take a look, and almost twisted his neck: "Why did you turn into a rabbit again?"

But Cui Yuanyang changed her previous light green long skirt and put on a fluffy rabbit ears outfit again. Her original ladylike temperament disappeared and she instantly became a fool again.

Yesterday she was acting like a lady who was hesitant to speak, but now she is no longer acting like a lady. She comes running towards me, skipping and jumping, and says with a smile: "Brother Zhao obviously likes Yangyang like this. Every time he sees me like this, his eyes are crooked."

"Ahem." Zhao Changhe coughed dryly, "I like them all. But spring is almost over. If you keep wearing this, won't you die of heat?"

"It's not even Qingming yet, and there's a late spring chill, don't you know?" Cui Yuanyang groaned, pulling his hand and dragging him out: "Let's go to the horse farm. I heard they said there are some good horses coming. I haven't seen them yet. Let's take Brother Zhao to have a look."

Zhao Changhe put away his knife and was dragged along by the little rabbit, which made him jump around unconsciously. It was so contagious...

The so-called horse farm is far away, out of the city, and still far away, you can see a big river with ships floating on it. There is an endless grassland by the river, and several riders are riding their horses. In the distance, you can vaguely see the grass blowing low in the wind, and many horses are wandering.

"This is my horse farm!" Cui Yuanyang pulled him to the pasture. "It's a little quiet today because of what happened last night... Otherwise, there would be a bunch of people racing horses at this time, it would be very lively!"

Zhao Changhe sniffed and suddenly remembered what Cui Yuanyang once said.

— “There is a river at my home.”

It's not that there is a river next to my house, it's really that there is a river next to my house.

No wonder Cui Yuanyang is really good at riding. Her daily life can be summed up in four words: cockfighting and horse riding, so how can her horse riding be bad

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang!" Cui Yuanyang pulled an old man beside the grassland and said, "How is my Black Peony? I miss it so much."

Uncle Wang smiled and said, "They bought a few good horses from the Western Regions a few days ago, and they are thinking about breeding them with Black Peony."

Cui Yuanyang's eyes widened: "Match, mate, mate? Black Peony is still young!"

Uncle Wang glanced at Zhao Changhe and stopped talking.

Miss, do you know how your father feels

The young man and woman understood the old man's look and felt embarrassed. Cui Yuanyang stamped his feet and said, "Take me to see. How dare someone so ugly as to breed with my Black Peony? I won't allow it!"

Yes, your father thinks so too. The old man didn't dare to say anything more and took the two to see the horses. Zhao Changhe originally thought that a little white rabbit like Cui Yuanyang should like white horses, but he didn't know why it was a "black" peony. When he arrived at the place, he was dumbfounded.

A white horse that was as beautiful as a unicorn saw Cui Yuanyang coming and enthusiastically spread its hooves to greet him. Cui Yuanyang also happily hugged the horse's neck: "Black Peony, I missed you so much!"

Zhao Changhe: “?”

You call a white horse like this Black Peony! Why not call it Black Pearl? It's so nice to just stare at it!

Cui Yuanyang turned around to look at him and asked with a smile, "Why is Brother Zhao twitching?"

"Why did you name the white horse this?"

"Just to see other people's expressions like this, hahaha..."

Zhao Changhe: “Fuck.”

Cui Yuanyang was about to say something when the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from behind, and someone shouted, "Miss, be careful, this horse is still wild and we are still letting it roam free, be careful not to bump into it!"

Cui Yuanyang turned his head curiously and his eyes lit up.

A shiny black horse was galloping towards this side. Its body was black, but its four hooves were white, just like it was stepping on snow. It was very beautiful. Several riders were chasing behind it, shouting and waving the lasso rope, trying to catch the horse.

Cui Yuanyang pulled Zhao Changhe: "Hey, Brother Zhao, do you like it?"

Zhao Changhe said, "I don't know how to judge horses... Just from the appearance, is this called Treading Snow Black Horse?"

"Treading Snow Black Horse, what a good name." Wang Bo smiled and said, "This horse has not been named yet."

"Then it will be called Snow-Walking Black Horse from now on!" Cui Yuanyang pulled Zhao Changhe and said, "I will take Brother Zhao to train the horse!"

"Hey hey hey! What's the point of training a horse? I can't even ride one!"

"It's very simple!" Cui Yuanyang jumped up, did a very neat somersault, and landed steadily on the galloping horse. The riders behind him cheered loudly: "Good! Miss, your skills are getting better and better!"

As they were talking, the horse had already passed by Zhao Changhe. Cui Yuanyang leaned over and reached out to grab Zhao Changhe, and Zhao Changhe took the opportunity to roll over and sit behind her.

The horse broke free and galloped away. The riders behind him looked at each other in dismay, and they themselves slowed down their pursuit of the horses, not daring to move forward.

The man just held the young lady's waist in public and rode a horse together... The young lady blushed and looked very happy.

You better not go over there if you know what's best for you. Miss, you should have no problem training horses...

"How do I tame this?" Zhao Changhe hugged the little girl's waist in great pain. He really didn't want to hug her like this in front of everyone, but this time the horse was different from the previous ones. It was shaking left and right and swinging around. If it weren't for his current level of training and his legs being strong enough to hold the horse, a person who couldn't ride a horse would have been thrown away long ago.

Cui Yuanyang, who was supposed to be in charge of training the horse, didn't know how to train it at this moment. He felt limp, as if he had no strength left. He almost collapsed into the arms of the man behind him: "Brother Zhao... You, you hold me, I don't have the strength..."

Zhao Changhe: “?”

"Xilulu!" The horse raised its front legs and leaned its body backward, and was about to knock over the two people who were feeding horse feed on its back.

Zhao Changhe got angry and punched the horse on the head. "Others take girls for a ride, and I take girls for a ride too, why don't you give me face? Fuck you, be quiet!"

Cui Yuanyang: “…”

The horse's head was knocked dizzy and it jumped around. Zhao Changhe held the horse's belly tightly, wrapped Cui Yuanyang in his arms, and stretched out his hands to hold the horse's neck tightly.

The fourth level of the entrance hall is no longer comparable to the mighty and majestic horse-catching man... No matter how majestic the horse is, how can it overcome Zhao Changhe's current strength

"Still stubborn!" Zhao Changhe punched him again: "If you jump again, I'll beat you up!"

The horse was about to cry. It fluttered around for a while, and finally calmed down and took the two people for a stroll along the river.

Seemingly tamed

Zhao Changhe panted and looked down at the little girl in his arms: "Hey, is this all right?"

Cui Yuanyang also looked up at him, his eyes twinkling: "Brother Zhao said he couldn't ride a horse, but it turns out he was born to train horses... Look how obedient he is."

Zhao Changhe: “…”

Are you talking about horses or horses

Well, the black horse stepping on snow, are you talking about the horse, or the me who is pressing you

Cui Yuanyang looked around. After the horse had been galloping for a while, there was no one around. The breeze was blowing by the river, the waves were roaring, and in the distance he could vaguely see the shadow of a boat sail.

The murderous intent when crossing the river at that time has turned into the warm spring breeze today; the dangerous situation of riding a horse to escape has turned into the leisurely stroll today.

Cui Yuanyang looked at him, her beautiful eyes gradually blurred, and she nestled in his arms with some emotion and said softly: "Brother Zhao, you are leaving... Can you... kiss me?"

Zhao Changhe was neither polite nor excessive.

He lowered his head, gently kissed the little rabbit's hot cheek, and whispered: "It should have been stamped first... Wait for me."
