The Legitimate Miss Returns With Honor - C25
Gu Jinzhu thought for a moment before slowly shaking her head. Although she really wanted to ride a horse and had secretly admired his figure of freedom in riding the horse, she was raised by Old Mistress Yang to be a lady of noble family.
As a daughter of a noble family, how could she possibly ride a horse under the gaze of so many people?
Moreover, she didn’t know how to ride a horse. If she went up, would she have to ride together with him? This thought flashed across her face, causing her to blush slightly.
Gu Yiqing didn’t pay attention to this. She rode her horse and followed leisurely by the side of the car, as if she was just casually chatting with her.
Gu Jinzhu was nervous at first, but when she heard him speak, her voice gradually relaxed. She then realized that her Third Uncle was extremely knowledgeable, with rich bosom, interesting stories from all over the country, as well as the history of the world. Some interesting stories were easily told to her so she gradually became entranced, as if she was listening to a story.
Looking at her, Gu Yiqing smiled and changed the topic, “At the border of my Da Xia Empire, there are some small border countries that are different from my customs. Have you heard of them, Pearl?”
“Barbarian?” Gu Jinzhu tilted her head. She loved to read some random wild history, and the foreign races at the borders of the Da Xia Empire had some understanding of it as well.
Gu Yiqing nodded and said, “We boasted that we were from the Upper Sky Empire and looked down on those uncivilized foreign races. We called them barbarians, and their living customs are very different from ours. But what do you know that makes the most difference?”
“What?” Gu Jinzhu was curious.
It’s a woman.” Gu Yiqing smiled lightly and said slowly, “We, the women of the Han nationality, live in our rooms, never leaving our homes. We, the women of the Han nationality, live in our rooms, and the women of the Han nationality, the women of the Han nationality, are not allowed to show their faces, but the women of the barbarian race are more at ease.
“We, the ladies of the Han nationality, scorn their vulgarity, but I feel that it is very good, free and unrestrained, and much more comfortable than those who walk and sit and lie all the time with a bow, afraid of making mistakes.
The wind blew at the corners of his clothes. He curled his lips and turned his head to look.
His eyes were filled with encouragement. He stretched out his hand to pat the extremely grave and stern black horse. He looked at her and said, “Don’t you want to try?”
Gu Jinzhu’s eyes were wide open. He had said so much just to tell her not to hold back and do whatever she wanted to do?
Her heart skipped a beat. After sitting in the car for so many days, her bones were all stiff and rusty, and God knows how much she wanted to go out and do some exercise. Like him, riding a horse and blowing the wind.
Gu Yiqing looked at her with a smile in his heart. In the end, she was just a thirteen year old child, but she always had an old and cold appearance. If it wasn’t for the faint yearning in her eyes, he would have thought that she was like that.
Gu Jinzhu hesitated for a moment. In the distance, the green mountains were as beautiful as jade, and as far as the eye could see, the wind was gentle. It was as if a voice inside of her was telling her: Just this once! She had never ridden a horse before.
Before she could react, she answered, “Okay.”
Gu Jinzhu reneged on her words. She had never ridden a horse before. What if she made a fool of herself later? Or would she really ride with him? Although he was still a senior, he was still …
Before she could finish her thought, Gu Yiqing had already told her car to stop. She had no choice but to get out of the car. Looking at the extremely serious dark horse, she felt her heart tremble.
When the two girls saw that their mistress was going to ride a horse, they surrounded her curiously. Bea was in high spirits, but there was a trace of worry in her eyes.
Gu Yiqing brought the horse over. The black hair on the horse was like satin, and its four limbs were long and slender. Gu Jinzhu couldn’t help but touch it. The horse snorted loudly and glanced back at her with an arrogant expression.
Gu Yiqing handed the reins to her. Gu Jinzhu thought back to when he had mounted the horse. She put her foot on the pedal and climbed up with all her might.
However, this horse was too tall, and her arms were too weak, making her feel as if she was hanging onto a horse. Laughter came from the side, and Gu Jinzhu’s face turned red, thinking that she would be shamed to death. Just as she was about to jump off, a hand reached out and held her arm.
From the corner of her eyes, she saw Gu Yingqing holding onto the reins. Her heart skipped a beat, just when she was worried that he would get on the horse, she saw Gu Yiqing leading the horse forward.
Her horse swayed under her, and she clung to the saddle, tense and excited.
The feeling of riding a horse and riding a carriage was completely different. The cool breeze blew, causing his eyes to be filled with green. As he breathed in the fragrant smell of the grass, he immediately became relaxed.
Like this, Gu Yiqing led the horse and slowly walked away. Her nervous mood gradually calmed down. Looking at the tall and straight figure in front of her, she felt relieved but also a little ashamed at the same time.
This Third Uncle was a rare upright gentleman; what was she thinking about?
A cool breeze blew and the long grass swayed in the wind. From afar, it looked like a green wave. Under the warm sunlight, the sounds of Aster and Rue could be heard. Gu Jinzhu felt more relaxed than she had ever felt before.
Her toes moved. She really wanted to kick it and let the horse run. However, when she saw Ma Xiongjian’s size, she gave up on that idea. It would be a disaster if it fell down.
After passing through a hillside, Gu Jinzhu’s eyes lit up and she almost held her breath from the shock.
It was too beautiful. In front of him was an endless field of oil cauliflower, golden waves rolling in all directions, waves surging in all directions, a sea of golden flowers filling his eyes with vibrant colors as butterflies fluttered in the wind.
Gu Jinzhu was shaken into a daze. When had she ever seen such a beautiful scene? For a moment, she felt as if she was in a dream.
Looking at her lost in thought, Gu Yiqing smiled and led the horse closer to the sea of flowers. A strong fragrance drifted over with the wind, causing Gu Jinzhu to jump off the horse and run towards the sea of flowers with the corner of her skirt raised.
Girls had always liked beautiful things, and Gu Jinzhu was no exception. With such a large sea of flowers and the blue sky above her, her breath was filled with a sweet fragrance, causing people’s hearts to unconsciously flutter.
When she got closer and saw the tender yellow flower, she couldn’t help but lean over and smell it.
Under the warm sunlight, the girl’s slender body was plated with a layer of golden light. She was wearing a cyan light dress, and there was not a single strand of hair on her head.
Gu Yiqing was slightly lost in thought. Even though he had seen countless exquisite beauties, he felt that none of them could be more touching than this scene. The girl’s beautiful face, when matched with the gorgeous flower branches, was actually both beautiful and delicate at the same time.
The cries of Bi Yunxiang and ShiYan could be heard behind them. They were one step too slow to catch up. When they turned around the hill and saw the sea of flowers, they couldn’t help but cry out.
