Chapter 30

The eldest grandson was so unexpected. Mr. Qi was as if he had a treasure. He kept persuading Qi Jing to pursue the imperial examination. However, Qi Jing insisted on taking the path of martial arts. Mr. Qi had no choice but to write a letter to an old friend in the capital, and sent it with the letter written by Mrs. Qi to his daughter-in-law.

So, shortly after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Qi family and the Xu family welcomed each of them.

The male guest of the Qi family was named Pang Yong. He was in his early forties. He was originally a personal guard of Dingxi Hou. He tried his best to protect the master in the Pingqiang Battle and injured his left eye. When the old marquis passed away, his son inherited his title, Pang Yong left the marquis's mansion. Then somehow he was found by someone entrusted by Mr. Qi and came to teach Qi Jing.

With just one hand, three arrows were used to shoot three arrows at once and a hundred steps, Qi Jing was convinced and respected this master very much.

The daughter of the Xu family was about the same age as Mrs. Qi last year. Everyone called her Madam Wan. It is said that Qi Jing’s current mother was taught by her.

Old Mrs. Qi praised the daughter-in-law later, and Jiang also had great confidence in Madam Wan. She specially used a pair of red jade earrings to coax Xu Jin to be obedient.

Actually, Jiang Shibai was worried.

Madam Wan was kind-hearted and spoke with the kindness of her elders. In addition to the initial discomfort, Xu Jin quickly accepted the new life arrangement and learned etiquette and rules from Madam Wan sensibly.

Mrs. Cui was very moved and asked Jiang and Madam Wan to ask if she could teach her together with Cui Xiao, which made her doubly punish her.

Madam Wan had already met Cui Xiao, and knew that it was a well-behaved and quiet girl, so she agreed very happily.

In this way, the two little girls learned faster when they were with each other, which made Jiang and Mrs. Cui feel relieved and became more attentive to Madam Wan.

The weather gradually became colder, and the leaves were inadvertently dyed yellow. The girl who used to be playful gradually became less arrogant. In addition to occasionally acting like a petite at home, she no longer ran and jumped when she went out, but smiled and walked lightly, as if she looked a little big girl.

Unfortunately, in Qi Jing's eyes, this little girl probably always looked so naughty.

Just now Uncle Pang left, she climbed the wall and peeked at him.

Qi Jing did not look squinting, and steadily stole his horse in the gentle sunshine of late autumn.

Madam Wan was not feeling very comfortable these two days. Xu Jin and Cui Xiao had a vacation. Now Dabai was watching there. As long as her mother walked here, Xu Jin would definitely know immediately, so she stepped on the bench with peace of mind and stuck her head out of the wall to watch Qi Jing practice.

In just two months, Qi Jing's face became much darker, no longer as white as a woman in the past. Fortunately, this is not ugly, and even has a sense of perseverance.

This makes many times when Qi Jing teaches him a lesson, Xu Jin will involuntarily regard him as an adult and obedient. When Qi Jing is stupid, his calmness will immediately disappear. If it is Xu Jin's sister, he will teach him a lesson.

"How long do you have to squat like that?"

I want to see you practice arrows.”

What is the meaning of stance stance? Xu Jin asked impatiently.

After Uncle Pang came, Qi Jing practiced martial arts in the morning, and her father was with Grandpa Qi. She and Xiaoxiao studied with Madam Wan. Then in the afternoon, their three children were taught by their father. Therefore, Xu Jin rarely had the chance to see Qi Jing practiced martial arts. But she wanted to see the most and took the opportunity to learn secretly.

He didn't dare to entangle Uncle Pang, Xu Jin and Qi Jing taught her, but Qi Jing couldn't resist her. Last time he secretly taught her how to squat on horseback.

Xu Jin thought it was too tiring to squat on horse stance, so he gave up after trying a few times and focused on riding and shooting archery.

Qi Jing had a horse, but unfortunately he rode his horse outside, so she couldn't see it at all. She only encountered Qi Jing and his disciples coming back on horseback, and envied her so much.

But Xu Jin also knew that she should be obedient in front of the elders and outsiders, so she should not be worried about the elders or laugh at them, so she probably has no chance to learn riding a horse.

Fortunately, archery is very simple, and in front of Qi Jing, she didn't have to worry about anything, because after Qi Jing got better, she never sued her again, and Xu Jin liked to play with Qi Jing like this.

Qi Jing raised his chin under the tree.

There was a scent that was just burning.

Xu Jin was very disappointed, "Forget it, I'll come and see it later."

After saying that, he jumped down gently.

A helplessness flashed in Qi Jing's eyes, and he soon calmed down again and looked ahead.

Xu Jin stayed with his mother for a while, then went to visit Madam Wan again, then took the needle and thread basket to the backyard, sitting under the apricot tree pretending to embroider the handkerchief.

Dabai lies beside the sun. Whenever a bird flies by the sky, it will turn its head and chase the birds. Occasionally, it opens its mouth, revealing two rows of sharp teeth, and shines in the sun with a terrifying cold light.

Xu Jin slowly stopped the needle and thread, put down the things, and turned them over to Dabai Shunmao.

Dabai lay down obediently and touched her with his belly.

It was so obedient, and tears suddenly turned into Xu Jin's eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Dabai has been at home for almost half a year. The little white dog, which was more than one foot long, has now grown into a real big white dog. When standing, it is almost as high as Xu Jin's thighs. It can even be raised to her chin when she raises her front paws and stands up.

Such a Dabai is the biggest treasure in the world in Xu Jin's eyes, but those outside are afraid of it, fearing that it will look ruthlessly when looking at them, and its teeth sharper than ordinary dogs, but they never thought that Dabai was obedient and obedient. She asked it to stand and it would not take another step. How could such a Dabai hurt people?

Just because they were afraid, their parents would not let her take Dabai out again.

The little girl's tears rolled down uncontrollably. When Dabai saw this, he stood up and looked up and added a little to her face.

"Dabai..." Xu Jin hugged Dabai's neck and buried it in its soft hair and cried silently.

She didn't blame the people outside, after all, they didn't know Dabai's good deeds. If she met a big dog from someone else, she would definitely be afraid, but she just couldn't help feeling wronged.

Dabai can only visit three families, and he can’t take it with him even when he goes to Donghu to play. It’s so uncomfortable to stay at home by himself.

As for those watchdogs that are tied by their owners to the door and can only jump around within the allowable range of iron chains on their necks, Xu Jin would not consider it. His Dabai is as smart as a human being. How can those dogs compare?

In her heart, Dabai deserves the best treatment.

"What are you doing?"

Qi Jing's voice suddenly came from behind.

"Ah, have you finished stance?"

Xu Jin quickly wiped away his tears, stood up and turned to look at him.

The bright light completely enveloped her, with a small jacket embroidered with crabapple flowers and a long apricot red dress, like a rose blooming in autumn, brilliant and beautiful.

Qi Jing's eyes fell on her face, and her red eyes were obviously crying.

Uncle Pang was still waiting behind, but Qi Jing did not ask her why she was crying, and said calmly: "I told Uncle Pang that you want to see me practice arrows. He agreed. Do you want to come and see me?"

Uncle Pang looked serious and actually had a cheerful personality. Instead of being sneaky, it would be better to say it outright.

"want!"

Xu Jin immediately forgot about her grievances with Dabai, and couldn't stop the smile at the corner of his mouth. He was about to climb the bench with his skirt.

Qi Jing looked at her from a high place, "Go and go around from the front, don't jump over the wall."

Xu Jin didn't listen, "That's too much trouble! Click next to me, I'm going up."

As he said that, he raised his right leg and climbed up. His pink little face naturally tilted towards Qi Jing as he moved, and almost met Qi Jing in his head.

Qi Jing hid uneasyly for a while. When Xu Jin's legs moved to the Qi family, Qi Jing was already standing on the ground and reached out to pick her up, "I'll hold you down?"

He has grown very fast recently and has changed into a batch of clothes. He is taller than Cui Lu, who is one year older than him. It is only after the little girl reaches his shoulders, so it is easy for him to hug her.

"No, I'll do it myself."

Xu Jin pouted and rejected the boy's kindness, although he looked down on her kindness, so he turned his head and told Dabai to take the sewing basket back into the house, and then jumped down with a "plop".

After leaving, his body was uncontrollably rushed forward, and was supported by Qi Jing, who had been prepared for a long time.

When she raised her head, her face turned red. Qi Jing took a look and let go of her hand and led her towards Pang Yong.

Pang Yong was blind in his left eye, so he wore half of his eye mask, which looked quite fierce at first glance.

However, Xu Jin was not very brave at first, and others allowed her to come and see her, so she gave a gift to the tall and burly man and smiled sweetly: "Uncle Pang is so nice. Thank you for teaching me archery. Don't worry, I will learn hard, and I will never be worse than Qi Jing!"

"I just said Uncle Pang is sure to see me practicing arrows, but I didn't say he wanted to teach you."

Qi Jing mercilessly distanced himself from the relationship.

If it only concerns two people, he will lie and make trouble with her, and involve others, especially his own credibility, he will not let her talk nonsense.

Xu Jin turned his head and glared at him, then shrank his shoulders, and looked at Pang Yong pitifully: "Uncle Pang, can you teach me?"

Pang Yong was amused by this cunning little girl and asked her: "You little girl, why do you want to learn archery?

Do your parents know?”

Xu Jin said without thinking: "I want to learn archery, what does it have to do with whether I am a man or a woman?

Can't women practice martial arts?

As for my father and the others..." Xu Jin pulled the man's sleeve flatteringly and begged in a low voice: "Uncle Pang, they definitely won't agree. Then, can you teach me secretly?

I really want to learn…”

The little girl had a watery eye. Even the iron-blooded man Pang Yong couldn't bear to refuse, but he still stood up straight and said seriously: "This is not possible. If your parents find out, they will be dissatisfied with me."

Xu Jin was very anxious and quickly promised: "No, no one of us said it, they wouldn't know, Uncle Pang, you..."

"Haha, don't worry, listen to my uncle finishing his words."

Pang Yong smiled unkindly and then pulled Qi Jing to her: "Uncle is an adult, and I can't mess with you, but Qi Jing can teach you, so that your parents won't blame him if they know.

How about it?

If you really want to learn, please ask Qi Jing to teach you."

Xu Jin looked at Qi Jing and muttered in a low voice: "Can he teach people?"

"It's okay to teach you, but it's okay if you don't want to learn it.

Uncle Pang, let’s start.”

Qi Jing was so sad that he threw a word and walked around her.

Not far away was the archery training field. Before Pang Yong could speak, Qi Jingzhi stepped on the quiver and put a bow on the arch string. He finished it in one go. When Xu Jin reacted, the arrow had hit the bull's eye.

The boy looked back at her, his eyes like the night star.

Qi Jing shot beautifully, Xu Jin was stunned, it turned out that he was already so powerful...

"How about it?

Is Qi Jing qualified for you?"

Pang Yong asked with a smile.

This apprentice was very satisfied. At first, he saw him tender skin, Pang Yong was worried that he would not be able to endure hardship and play with the young master's temper. Later, this young man made him look at him with admiration day by day. He made progress very fast, and he was simply born with talent.

Of course, strategic vision and other things, because they were too short of time together, Pang Yong could not give an evaluation, but based on his eyesight he had practiced for so many years with Dingxi Hou, just looking at the stern and calmness in his eyes when he was shooting archery, Pang Yong dared to conclude that this boy's future is limitless.
