The system asked me to chase his wife

The matter has been made clear, and there is a solution. The purse was not made by Mang Xia herself, so just talk about it.

No woman would give her lover something made by someone else.

But Qiao Yuandong felt that this was not the right thing to do.

This will definitely drag Helan into this, and I'm afraid that if one thing goes wrong, both girls will be implicated.

Forget it. It’s useless and He Lan will be harmed. It’s better that Mangxia can’t enter Ang’er’s room.

Qiao Yuandong pondered for a long time, but still couldn't figure out why he felt that "this is a good idea."

"Yunxiu is grown up now. I will find a family for her someday and let her go out of the mansion to manage a farm."

Rong Zhu's expression changed, and he said casually, "There is a manager named Li in the farm in Longxi. His son just turned 20 this year, and his family is looking for a partner for him."

Qiao Yuandong asked casually, "Is it acceptable?"

Rong Zhu did not hide it: "This is the family my parents found for me. The man is handsome and honest, but I felt that he was too far away to live with my wife, so I returned."

Qiao Yuandong understood: "Longxi is indeed a bit far. You are used to it. I will help you find a nearby place in the future."

When Rongzhu saw that Qiao Yuandong never mentioned Yunxiu again, she knew that she had tacitly agreed to marry Yunxiu off far away.

Yunxiu is a maidservant in the mansion and a respected one. Even though she made a mistake, she cannot be punished casually. Instead of doing that, it would be better to send her away.

Thinking of this, Rongzhu felt a little relieved.

The most capable people around the lady are her and Yunxiu, but they both seem to have the attitude that there can't be two tigers in one mountain.

Although they had never quarreled in public, they often competed with each other secretly. Now that Yunxiu had made a mistake and was caught in the act, Rongzhu naturally had to put in more effort in secret.

"The people in the mansion are spreading rumors. Go and punish them. Also, ask An Ge'er to control his servants."

At this point, Qiao Yuandong pondered and ordered, "It wasn't the boy's fault in the first place. Just explain the matter clearly."

"understood."

Xiang Xiu'an was not very clear about the rumors among the servants in the mansion. He got up early every morning to go to school and came back in the evening. He had no time to listen to the gossip in the mansion.

Shuanglu, the servant who follows him around, is a taciturn person, so naturally he doesn't feel comfortable sharing his love feelings with his master.

After all this, Xiang Xiu'an was kept in the dark. He only found out about it when Rong Zhu came to him and told him about it.

Of course Xiang Xiu'an would never agree to this!

He still remembered the day when he was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall and Xia Mang was possessed by the heroic spirit of his brother. Xiao Xiang firmly believed it.

In his mind, the little girl was like half a brother to him, and he looked forward to his brother coming back to talk to him day and night.

In fact, it was not wrong for him to think so. After all, there was indeed a Xiang Xiukai-brand system living in Xia Mang's mind.

If he called Xia Mang "brother", Xia Mang wouldn't mind agreeing on behalf of Xiang Xiukai.

Now the servant beside him actually has deep feelings for his brother? ! !
Xiang Xiu'an felt itchy all over.

As soon as Rongzhu left, he immediately called Shuanglu over.

Shuang Lu walked up obediently and waited for his master's instructions, but Xiang Xiu'an said to him, "It's impossible for you and Mang Xia to be together. Give up the idea as soon as possible. I will find you a better one in the future."

Shuang Lu was struck by lightning and was unable to react for a long time.

Shuanglu found it hard to accept that the master was forcing a couple to part ways when this happened to him.

He asked hesitantly: "Yes, but Miss Mangxia and I are in love with each other."

Xiang Xiu'an couldn't bear to hear this word. While rubbing the goose bumps on his arms, he explained the whole story to Shuanglu.

Xiang Xiu'an concluded: "It was Yunxiu who caused this misunderstanding. The things you gave to Mangxia were all received by Yunxiu, and the things you received were also given by Yunxiu. To put it bluntly, you and Yunxiu are in love with each other."

Shuang Lu was immersed in the shock of being forced to cheat for a long time. His still conscious nerves vaguely conveyed a message.

It seems that there is no possibility for him and Miss Mangxia to be together.

The rumors in the mansion soon disappeared. Shuanglu, the servant beside Xiang Xiu'an, fell seriously ill and was recently served by the clerk.

Qiao Yuandong waited until the lady got up before he went to her courtyard to pay his respects and told her about Yunxiu's marriage.

After all, Yunxiu came from the old lady's courtyard, so it was necessary to inform the old lady about this matter.

The lady had no objection to Qiao Yuandong's arrangement. She just asked her if she was short of staff or if she could send someone else over.

Qiao Yuandong declined politely.

After greeting, Qiao Yuandong returned to his yard and saw Xiang Xiu'an there, talking to Xia Mang.

She vaguely heard Xiang Xiu'an say, "You can't have any more contact with my servant."

Qiao Yuandong couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Why did An Ge'er come to Mang Xia to talk about this?
Are you jealous?

When did he fall in love with Mang Xia?
Qiao Yuandong's expression changed, and he walked into the yard, pretending to have just seen Xiang Xiu'an, "Why is An'er here? Aren't you going to school today?"

When Xiang Xiu'an saw Qiao Yuandong, he looked at Xia Mang uncomfortably, then bowed to Qiao Yuandong.

"I was busy at school a few days ago and didn't come to greet my sister-in-law. I came to see her today after taking a break."

"It doesn't matter if I miss one or two visits. As long as you and grandma are fine, I will be fine every day too."

Qiao Yuandong invited Xiang Xiu'an into the house and told Xia Mang to make tea.

She said to Xiang Xiu'an with a pleasant face: "I know you are busy preparing for the Imperial College entrance exam. This is a big deal and you need to work hard."

At this point, Qiao Yuandong could not help but admonish him again: "Although you can inherit the title, you still need to have achievements to have a real job, so that your family can have someone to rely on."

Xiang Xiu'an nodded and responded seriously.

He thought of how Wu Wendong had invited him to visit the army the day before, and he was very tempted by this. However, he could not tell his sister-in-law and grandmother about this, lest they would worry too much.

Xia Mang brought in tea for the two of them and then quietly left.

Qiao Yuandong glanced at him calmly and said, "You are old now, I am choosing a partner for you, but you have to wait and see if you can find a good partner. If you have a girl you like, you can tell me about it."

Xiang Xiu'an didn't expect Qiao Yuandong to bring up this matter. He uncomfortably picked up the tea and took a sip, his face turning red.

Someone's face with curved eyebrows and eyes suddenly flashed through my mind, and the crisp sound of the ruby-studded necklace seemed to be right next to my ears.

"My sister-in-law must choose the best one. My brother will let her make the decision."

Qiao Yuandong nodded, and after a moment of hesitation, he couldn't help but ask, "After you marry a wife, will you take a concubine?"

Upon hearing this, Xiang Xiu'an waved his hands repeatedly to refuse.

Qiao Yuandong thought he was embarrassed to admit that he liked Xia Mang, so he continued, "The Duke's Mansion is small now, and it would be beneficial for your offspring if you take a concubine."

Xiang Xiu'an said firmly with a red face: "Sister-in-law, you don't have to say this. Our family has never had the rule of taking concubines, and I naturally cannot break this rule. If I take a concubine for the sake of having children, I will hurt the feelings of the person next to me."

"You should know that the Duke's mansion does not only marry a woman of equal status, but also has to be a member of an official family. Commoners are not included in the family tree, and those of low status are even less acceptable."

Qiao Yuandong felt that what he said was very clear. If Xiang Xiu'an really wanted to marry only one wife, then Xia Mang would have no chance of doing so.

When Xiang Xiu'an heard this, he somehow thought of that person again and his face turned even redder.

"My brother knows."

Hearing him say this and seeing his reaction, Qiao Yuandong breathed a sigh of relief for no reason. It seemed that he was not deeply in love with that girl Mang Xia.

The uncle and his sister-in-law chatted for a while, and then Xiang Xiu'an went back to study.

The emperor allowed imperial examinations to be conducted through imperial favor, and Xiang Xiu'an could directly enter the Imperial Academy with the favor.

However, even the students who entered the Imperial College through imperial favor were ranked in order. The top students were in the A-class, and the doctoral lecturers were the best.

If Xiang Xiu'an wanted to enter the A-class and have a chance of passing the imperial examination, he would naturally have to study very hard.
As for Yunxiu's matter, now that the Madam has agreed, the whole process will be quick.

Even though Yunxiu was a born child of the Duke's Mansion, with both masters agreeing, Yunxiu's parents could no longer object.

Soon, Manager Li from Longxi sent a generous betrothal gift. After seeing the betrothal gift, Yunxiu's parents completely disappeared their dissatisfaction.

Qiao Yuandong gave Yunxiu grace and allowed her to go home half a month in advance to prepare her dowry.

Yunxiu was obsessed with climbing up the social ladder and becoming the master of the man above her. Now not only has her dream been shattered, but she is also being married off to distant Longxi.

How could she be willing?
So when she heard that Qiao Yuandong was going to let her go, she came crying that day.

When Yunxiu came, Qiao Yuandong was writing in the room, and Rongzhu was standing beside her grinding ink for her.

She walked into the house hesitantly, not caring that there were other people in the room, and knelt down in front of Qiao Yuandong.

Rongzhu glanced sideways slightly, and after quickly taking a look at Yunxiu's expression, she restrained her brows.

Qiao Yuandong continued writing as if he hadn't heard anything until he finished the article. Then he put down his pen and Rongzhu took the pen to wash it.

Qiao Yuandong then glanced at Yunxiu and asked, "Why are you not going back to embroider your wedding dress? What are you doing here?"

Yunxiu bit her lip and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, I know I was wrong."

Qiao Yuandong hummed without commenting.

Yunxiu leaned forward slightly, staring at Qiao Yuandong with her eyes fixed on him, and said earnestly, "Madam, please have mercy on me. I don't want to marry to Longxi."

Longxi is too far away from the Duke's Mansion. If she marries there, she will rarely come back throughout the year.

Qiao Yuandong quietly watched Yunxiu's tears falling, and said calmly: "You don't want to marry to Longxi, do you still want to follow the prince?"

Yunxiu shuddered slightly when she heard this. She lowered her eyes and stammered, "Second Master is grown up now. He needs someone to serve him in the house."

Qiao Yuandong did not tell Yunxiu that Xiang Xiu'an did not plan to take a concubine. She said in a cold voice, "It seems that you still don't know your mistake."

Even if Xiang Xiu'an wanted to take a concubine, Yunxiu was not allowed to enter his room again after she made a mistake.

Allowing her to marry to Longxi was already a favor, but not only did she not repent, she was even dreaming of such a thing.

After all, Yunxiu had served Qiao Yuandong for three years. When she said this, she already understood what her master meant.

After realizing that there was no way out, Yunxiu burst into tears.

She held back her sobs and kowtowed respectfully to Qiao Yuandong. Finally, she raised her head and looked at Qiao Yuandong, with a hint of grievance in her eyes.

"Yunxiu admits that she did something wrong and cannot refute it, but Madam actually drove me away for Mangxia. That girl has only been married for half a year. How can she not be able to outweigh the three years of master-servant relationship between me and you?"

When Yunxiu set up the plan, he was certain that since he had followed the Madam for so long, he must have some feelings for her.

Even if she was found out in the future, the Madam would not blame her too much. She would at least remember their old relationship and turn a blind eye and send her to the Second Master's room.

However, Yunxiu only now realized that she had made the wrong bet!

Qiao Yuandong did not respond to Yunxiu's accusation. After a while, he said, "Go back, get married and live a good life. You are a good child. I will prepare more dowry for you."

Yunxiu understood that this was the perfect way to fulfill the relationship between master and servant.

When Yunxiu's parents came to pick her up, Yunxiu followed them resignedly.

Qiao Yuandong asked Rongzhu to prepare a generous dowry for her. Rongzhu did as she was told and did not do anything about it.

As for the person involved in this incident, Xia Mang, he was completely out of touch with the situation.

Before leaving, Yunxiu came to see Xia Mang. She only said one sentence to Xia Mang: "I am getting married. You should serve my wife well in the future."

Xia Mang was still happily congratulating them.

It was not until Yunxiu left that the system in her mind said without thinking: "It seems that you have gained the trust of the target person Qiao Yuandong."

Xia Mang was completely unaware of the conversation between Qiao Yuandong and Yunxiu, so she was confused by the system's inexplicable words. "Is that so?"

The system did not explain Xia Mang's question in detail, but simply said: "I need you to do something for me."

Xia Mang: "What's the matter?"

'Tell the target person Qiao Yuandong about my existence.'

The system's voice suddenly became very human, and Xia Mang immediately understood that the "I" the system was referring to was Xiang Xiukai.

"No, big brother, you've already come to this point, why don't you stop playing ghost games?"

Xia Mang sincerely wanted to persuade Xiang Xiukai to take back his decision, as she was afraid that Qiao Yuandong would be scared to death.

Xiang Xiukai was silent for a moment and then talked about another thing: "Do you remember what I told you before, that the heavens let me reincarnate in my previous life just to let me fulfill my long-cherished wish?"

Xia Mang couldn't listen any more: "That's true, but you can't play like this, don't you know what you are like now? If the Heaven knows what you are doing, won't it punish you?"

Even if Xiang Xiukai is not afraid of the punishment of heaven, Xia Mang is afraid.

Now she is tied to this guy. What if someone finds out that she has this thing on her and tries to pry her head open?
Xiang Xiukai said nonchalantly: "Don't you realize that my system authority is very high? I can even possess some of the characteristics of carbon-based biological sequences."

Xia Mang was overwhelmed: "Speak human language!"

Xiang Xiukai: "I have seen systems of the same sequence. They do not have human memory like me. In other words, their authority is very low and they can only act according to established procedures, while I have a certain degree of freedom."

Xia Mang pondered Xiang Xiukai's words, only to hear him say: "And the host did not interfere with the task I just issued, which means that the heaven has acquiesced. If you just help me fulfill my wish, maybe you can go back earlier?"

This moved Xia Mang, and she asked, "What is your wish?"

"That's a lot." Xiang Xiukai became excited when he talked about this: "I want to take care of my grandmother, grow old with Dong Niang, and watch Xiu An get married and start a family. It would be even better if my parents were still alive."

Xia Mang reminded Xiang Xiukai unhappily: "Please note that I am your host, not the turtle in the wishing well!"

Xiang Xiukai said: "So I've settled for the next best thing. I just want you to tell Dong Niang about my existence, so that she knows I'm always by her side."

"Okay, okay! I understand, Dad!" Xia Mang interrupted his pure love speech: "I'll do you this favor, remember to transfer the points to my account later!"

Xia Mang agreed to this matter very readily.

She had always wanted to earn enough points to return to her own world, but the sky-high price of points was simply despairing!
Now Xiang Xiukai offers another way.

According to him, Xia Mang was brought to this world because of his obsession. Does that mean that as long as she helps him fulfill his long-cherished wish, she can go back?

Very reasonable, you can give it a try!
This order is accepted!

Xiang Xiukai wants to find Qiao Yuandong to show his presence, and Xia Mang wants to go back. It’s a win-win situation!

'Ding, system task released, please inform the target person of the existence of Beep! - Beep!!'

The loud harmonious sound almost deafened Xia Mang. It seemed that Xiang Xiukai's move was very borderline!
Xia Mang looked at the task acceptance button and started to raise the price.

"Brother, this is risky. You have to pay more!"

Xiang Xiukai: 'Double, no more.'

So straightforward?!
Xia Mang asked suspiciously: "Are you still secretly deducting my points?"

Could it be that this guy is still taking kickbacks? Xiang Xiukai didn't pretend anymore and confessed directly: "I need points to upgrade. Upgrading can unlock more functions, which is also good for you."

Xia Mang couldn't help but roll her eyes. After the experience of being deducted last time, she was now much calmer.

She sneered, "Tell me the truth, how many points are awarded for each mission? Swear on your System Law!"

After a slight electric current sounded in my mind, Xiang Xiukai's annoying voice came: "Two thousand."

good good!
You're taking advantage of me, right?

When Xiang Xiukai saw Xia Mang fell silent, he thought she was going to refuse the task, but she readily pressed the button to accept the task.

"I've accepted the mission. Wait for my good news!"

No wonder!
How dare you secretly deduct her points without her consent? I'm tired of living like this!
You thought she couldn't do anything to Ya Ting, right?

Wait!
Qiao Yuandong has always had a habit of going to the ancestral temple to burn incense for Xiang Xiukai every ten days.

It was also Xiang Xiukai's bad luck that today was the day when Qiao Yuandong went to burn incense, so Xia Mang ran straight to the ancestral hall to look for Qiao Yuandong.

Qiao Yuandong was staring at the tablet in the ancestral hall in a trance when a head popped in from the door.

"lady?"

Qiao Yuandong recognized Xia Mang's voice, and she said without turning her head, "Come in."

Xia Mang went in properly, walked behind Qiao Yuandong and asked knowingly, "Madam, are you reminiscing about the young master again?"

"Yeah." Qiao Yuandong responded without comment.

Xia Mang then continued, "The dead cannot be resurrected, but I feel that the spirit of the young master in heaven must be watching all this, and his heroic spirit must be with the Duke's Mansion and with his wife."

Qiao Yuandong was slightly stunned by Xia Mang's earnest words. After a while, she nodded: "You are right, I believe Xiu Kai has been blessing the Duke's Mansion."

After hearing this, Xia Mang burst into laughter in her heart. She shouted rudely into her head: "The mission is completed, send me the money!!!"

Xiang Xiukai's angry voice rang out: "This doesn't count!"

Xia Mang started to play tricks: "Why not? Just tell me whether the lady agrees that you should be with her?"

Xiang Xiuan was annoyed: "Did I mean that? Did I mean that?"

"You are still anxious."

As soon as Xia Mang finished speaking, a mechanical sound suddenly rang in his mind.

'Ding! The task has been completed and the reward points have been issued. Please check!'

Xiang Xiuan: '???'

Xia Mang was so happy when he saw the extra two thousand on the points page that his teeth almost popped out.

When Qiao Yuandong saw this, he frowned and said, "That's against the rules. This is in the ancestral hall."

"Oh." Xia Mang pursed her lips and smiled secretly in her heart.

For Xia, who would take revenge on the spot, he was extremely happy to have successfully tricked Xiang Xiukai.

Because of this incident, Xiao Xiang became autistic for a short time. No matter how Xia Mang knocked on the system, he could not get any additional response.

Yo, is this a defense breach?
I have another trick up my sleeve!
If you dare to deduct my money, I will make you regret it!
After leaving the ancestral hall, Qiao Yuandong led Xia Mang back to the yard.

Xia Mang brought a cup of tea to Qiao Yuandong. Qiao Yuandong took a sip of the tea and then asked, "What makes you so happy?"

Seeing Qiao Yuandong asking, Xia Mang said, "Madam, let's go out and play!"

When Qiao Yuandong first heard this, she was stunned for a moment. After she reacted, she subconsciously shook her head.

She was raised in a pampered house since she was a child, but she was also naughty at times.

Qiao Yuandong still remembers sneaking out with his cousin when he was seven or eight years old. The hustle and bustle of people coming and going in his memory seemed to be happening right before his eyes, and the sour and sweet taste of the candied haws seemed to still linger on his tongue.

But as she got older, she became less and less willing to go out. During the three years of widowhood, the lively girl was locked up and became the silent Qiao Yuandong of today.

Xia Mang did not give up despite Qiao Yuandong's rejection. She approached Qiao Yuandong, blinked her round eyes and began to make promises to her leader.

"Ji Tong heard from Madam Tai that now is a good time for autumn hunting. The palace has built a whole mountain behind the imperial farm and invited many nobles from the capital to go hunting. It's so lively!"

Qiao Yuandong was happy to hear what Xia Mang said, and couldn't help but continue: "It is true. Every year at this time, we have autumn hunting."

The Jin Dynasty was founded in blood and fire, and emperors of all dynasties attached great importance to military affairs. Autumn hunting was not only for honoring ancestors, but also for promoting the tradition of martial arts.

Whether it is the royal family or officials and nobles, they can all show their skills during the autumn hunting. Even the daughters of some military generals will go hunting.

Seeing Qiao Yuandong taking over the conversation, Xia Mang spoke even more cheerfully: "So Madam, let's go and have a look. I heard there are deer in the hunting grounds. I wonder if there are tigers and wolves?"

Qiao Yuandong couldn't help laughing: "The Yulin Guards have dealt with those ferocious beasts in advance, so how could they appear in the hunting grounds? Otherwise, who would be held responsible if they hurt anyone?"

Seeing that the little girl was very interested, Qiao Yuandong finally changed his mind: "Well, let's go. It's a good opportunity for An Ge to meet someone else."

Madam agreed!
Take that, Xiao Xiang!

The autumn hunting lasts for half a month, so there is no need to rush. Qiao Yuandong chose a sunny day to go out.

Since I want to meet someone for Xiang Xiu'an, I naturally have to bring the real person with me.

Last time at the flower-viewing banquet at the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery’s residence, Qiao Yuandong had been very optimistic about the girl from the Yun family, but after hearing those words, she gave up the idea.

She thought that there was no need to limit her vision to those ladies, it might be okay to look at the daughters of military generals.

The old lady was feeling a little bored after living in the house for so long. When she heard that Qiao Yuandong was taking Xiang Xiu'an to the hunting ground, she became interested in going with them.

So the whole family went out with their servants.

The imperial farm is located in the capital, with a big mountain behind it. It is the hunting ground for the royal family.

Every autumn, His Majesty shows mercy and invites officials of all ranks in the capital and their families to go to the hunting grounds to have fun together.

One is to have fun with people, and the other is to show off the kids.

Your Majesty is young and strong. Although you have few children, each of them is excellent and outstanding.

The Crown Prince, in particular, has the potential to be a wise ruler at such a young age. Your Majesty is both satisfied and proud of this son.

Everyone knows that as long as the prince does not make any mistakes in principle, he will be the next to take the throne.

When the Emperor heard that the prince had actually hunted an eagle this time, he praised it to everyone he met.

Qiao Yuandong and others were allowed into the autumn hunting ground only after going through layers of screening.

At the foot of the mountain is a series of tents for people to rest. The real hunting ground is on the mountain.

Xia Mang followed Qiao Yuandong and looked around, only to find that this so-called mountain was not steep at all. To be honest, it was just a huge gentle hill.

The hunting ground was noisy and full of people. Xia Mang asked curiously, "Madam, isn't this the royal hunting ground? Why didn't I see the emperor?"

Qiao Yuandong looked at her helplessly.

Rong Zhu beside him burst out laughing, "Fool, His Majesty the Emperor came here a few days ago, and we were not allowed to come in at that time."

Xia Mang smiled awkwardly and nodded to show that he understood.

Yes, why would the emperor just hang out with such a large group of people? If there were assassins with bad intentions mixed in, he might be in trouble.

A servant who was in charge of the order of the hunting ground came to greet them, and Qiao Yuandong announced the name of the Duke's Mansion. The servant led the group to a luxurious tent according to their rank.

"Please take a rest here, my dears. If you need anything, please tell me."

Rongzhu handed the servant a purse containing five taels of silver and said gently, "Please go get us some water. There is no need for anything else."

Water is needed for cleaning, and as for all the necessary items for food and drink, everyone below brings them with them.

The servant received the silver and went to work happily.

Xia Mang followed Rong Zhu and Ji Tong and tidied up the tent.

In fact, this tent is already very spacious. Compared with the entire camp, it is considered a luxury suite.

However, Qiao Yuandong and the others arrived late, and this tent had been used by who knows how many groups of people, so it needed to be fumigated with medicinal incense.

After finally finishing the work, Xia Mang touched the sweat on his head and turned around to see Qiao Yuandong picking up an exquisite little bow.

Hey! Madam, can you shoot arrows?
The small bow was made of birch wood, with a shiny black ox horn attached to the bow surface, the back of the bow was covered with tendons, the bow head was covered with soft wood skin, the two ends were made of mulberry wood, decorated with birch bark and ox horn, and the string was tightened with leather.

The bow is only three feet long, light and exquisite, and is made entirely for women.

Rongzhu was quite surprised when she saw Qiao Yuandong take out the bow: "Madam, you haven't touched this thing for a long time. Why don't I go get the hunting clothes so that you can move around."

This bow was a gift that Xiang Xiukai made for Qiao Yuandong when she was still a married woman.

She was also naughty when she was young, and she longed for the free and unrestrained life of a girl.

But later, when she grew up, people around her taught her to be a dignified and elegant person, not to overstep the boundaries and not to be reckless.

Gradually, these things were no longer touched.

She still remembered what Xiang Xiukai said when he gave her the little bow: "We don't have so many rules in the Duke's Mansion. If you like this, I'll take you to autumn hunting when you get married!"

Qiao Yuandong looked at the bow with some emotion, and finally smiled and said, "I'm used to being lazy, so I don't play with these things. It just so happens that An Ge'er can use it, so give it to him."

Rongzhu took the bow and went to find Xiang Xiu'an. Qiao Yuandong turned around and met Xia Mang's bright eyes.

Looking at Qiao Yuandong's graceful and shallow appearance, Xia Mang's flattery radar sounded again.

She approached Qiao Yuandong with a drooling face and said happily: "Madam, you don't go on stage to save their face. Otherwise, how will those guys deal with it when Madam takes action?"

This flattery was so low-level that it was almost brainless, but Qiao Yuandong was still amused by Xia Mang.

"You're so smart!" She stretched out her finger and tapped Xia Mang's forehead lightly.

The lady said she wanted to take a nap, so Qiao Yuandong led her people out of the tent. Xia Mang followed her and strolled aimlessly on the racecourse.

A large area was cleared in the center of the camp, with a large shooting range built in the middle for people to ride, shoot, and ride horses.

Xia Mang saw a handsome young man riding a horse and hitting the bull's eye.

Perhaps because he was a little hot from running, the young man untied his outer robe and tied it around his waist, revealing the white satin lining with dark patterns, which made him look even more muscular.

"Wow!" Xia Mang couldn't help but let out a heartfelt exclamation of admiration.

My god, this guy has such long legs!

Xia Mang's voice successfully attracted Qiao Yuandong's attention. She looked in the direction Xia Mang was looking and saw a handsome man riding on a horse.

"That should be a captain under Commander Liu." Qiao Yuandong recognized the man's identity.

"Huh? Madam actually knows him?"

Could it be that this was once a potential competitor of Xiang Xiukai?
Xia Mang looked at the man carefully for several times.

"The style of that robe is the uniform of the thousand households. Look at the pattern on the boots, it is also very particular." Qiao Yuandong patiently explained to Xia Mang.

Oh, no wonder this dress looks so beautiful.

Although Xia Mang couldn't figure out the mystery, it didn't hinder her appreciation of beauty at all.

It turns out that the temptation of uniform is the most deadly!
Thinking of this, Xia Mang couldn't help but speak out her true feelings: "What a handsome and dignified man!"

Qiao Yuandong looked at her unhappily and said, "How dare you say such shameless words?"

Xia Mang didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and instead said, "People say that gentlemen like beautiful ladies, so why can't gentlemen like ladies?"

Qiao Yuandong couldn't help but look at Xia Mang in surprise. He didn't expect that this illiterate girl would use an allusion today.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about?" Qiao Yuandong was angry and amused at the same time.

"This is the truth!" Xia Mang straightened her body and pointed at the young men on the racecourse and asked, "Madam, don't you think it's a pleasure to look at these handsome men?"

Qiao Yuandong was so amused by her words that she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She covered her mouth and laughed for a long time, until her face turned red.

Unable to withstand Xia Mang's persistent gaze, Qiao Yuandong was forced to agree with her point of view: "You are right."

So Xia Mang took Qiao Yuandong to look at the men on the racecourse one by one and evaluated them according to their categories.

If it were in the past, Qiao Yuandong would have sneered at such behavior, thinking it was totally unbecoming of a lady.

But at this moment, she felt a kind of unbridled pleasure from it, just like she had imagined when she was a child, like in the storybooks, where the children of the rivers and lakes took pleasure in avenging their enemies.

If it looks good, it looks good. If you like it, you like it. Who cares about etiquette or dogma?
Therefore, even though he knew that Xia Mang's behavior was inappropriate, Qiao Yuandong had no intention of stopping him.

That girl had a natural cheerfulness that had never been castrated by conventions. That kind of freedom and innocence was what Qiao Yuandong had always longed for but could never get.

She said that the man's bow and arrow posture was the best, she said that the young man's horse riding movements were very graceful, and she also said that the young man there had the most upright posture.
Such words that ordinary women would be ashamed to think about even in their dreams were spoken out by Xia Mang without any scruples, yet she did not seem to be shy at all.

She discovered and appreciated beauty and goodness so calmly.

that's nice!

She looked at the gentlemen on the field.

She looked at her.

"Madam, if you were to choose a husband, which one would you choose?" Xia Mang looked at the men on the field like a beauty pageant and asked such an earth-shattering question.

Qiao Yuandong was inexplicably cheerful at the moment. When she heard Xia Mang's question, she casually pointed at the captain on the field.

"Well, he has a handsome appearance and good skills. He is a thousand households at a young age. He must have great potential in the future."

When he said this, the captain hit the nail on the head again.

After Qiao Yuandong finished speaking, his face felt slightly hot. He felt ashamed for being unruly, but also felt particularly happy for having the rare opportunity to let himself go.

Another student who felt happy was Xia Mang.

Ever since she pulled Qiao Yuandong to admire the handsome guy, the system in her brain had started to speak frequently.

To be more precise, it was Xiang Xiukai's personal statement and did not represent the system.

"Host, you are going too far!"

'How dare you take my wife to see another man!? '

"I'm still here, you two won't betray me anymore, right? ! ! "
