Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 10 Intuitive manifestation of talent

The next day

in the morning
  Quyuan Street

Xu Minghua got up early and came to the yard where the stables were located.

In the yard, a disabled groom was taking care of the horses.

He looked at the horse with gentle eyes, as if looking at his own child.

When he heard someone coming, he didn't move, still caring for the horses attentively.

"Lord."

The voice was rough and low, as if it was squeezed out of the neck, and it seemed like the last breath before death. No wonder he didn't speak, the voice was scary enough.

Xu Minghua looked at the man in front of him. No one could recognize his true face with this look.

"The commander of Xiangdu has taken over another horse farm in Hetao, and there is a shortage of a long-term horseman."

"My lord, there is a family named Ai in Zhending Mansion. The skills of the people in raising horses are not inferior to mine. Just don't mention me when you invite people."

"In the past year, I have been asking around on the pretext of looking for a good horse. A Marquis of Yu, the military capital of Xuzhou, once saw an unusually handsome dragon colt. I heard that it was the Marquis of Dongchang who was going to offer it to His Majesty. A congratulatory gift."

Hearing Xu Minghua's words, the groom stopped what he was doing, and something unknown surged in his single eye.

"I only knew it was a dragon colt, but I didn't find out what color it was."

"Thank you, Lord, for taking care of my affairs. I was ambushed in Haizhou back then and took away the sacred horse in my hand. Although I had been prepared for it at that time, I wore servant clothes and faked my death to escape. After all these years, I finally got this piece of news. ."

"Back then, you were admirable for your meticulousness. I never expected that something would happen to you."

"Haha, now that I think about it, he is just an actor who was treated as a joke on the stage."

Xu Minghua hesitated to speak. He thought he had persuaded him more than once, so he paused and said:

"There has been some turmoil in the north recently, and the armies are about to prepare for war. It will be up to you to take care of them from now on."

"Okay! But the Yongyi Marquis Mansion also has a title based on military exploits. Why doesn't it have a long-standing horseman? If I hadn't come here, you would have to buy even a good horse."

"The former Yongyi Hou's only daughter married into the Sheng family's aunt. She loved playing polo since she was a child. A good horseman brought her as a dowry, but she didn't leave anyone at home."

The groom smiled brightly.

He replied hoarsely, "You, Marquis Yongyi, are really cheap."

Xu Minghua didn't say much.

After breakfast, Xu Minghua went out and returned home in the evening. He ate with everyone and then went to bed early.

Xu Minghua left the capital early the next day.

Before leaving, he had a conversation with his eldest wife. Xu Zaijing was woken up and overheard some words. She told Mrs. Sun that if she really encountered something big and couldn't decide, in addition to asking her parents-in-law, she could also listen to the people in her stable. The groom's opinion.

Sun was originally a military commander, and the groom helped her find a good horse. Knowing that he was a capable man, he naturally listened to his officials.

Xu Zaijing also knew that there was an expert who his father trusted living in his stable.

So Xu Zaijing would go to the chicken coop near the stable with the small bow and arrow given by his father.

I don’t mind the strong smell in the stable either.

There is no metal arrowhead on the feather arrow, but it still has some lethality.

From time to time, chickens and ducks were "accidentally injured" by Xu Zaijing.

On this day, Xu Zaijing was practicing archery near the stable again. There was also a pony that was a few days old in the stable. Xu Zaijing shot an arrow in the nose.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The tip of the pony's nose hurt, and the horse was small. It had never been whipped and had never been tamed. When it saw the culprit of the pain, it rushed towards Xu Zaijing.

Xu Zaijing was only four years old. If he was pushed over by this pony, it would be fine as long as he didn't hit the back of the head or other important parts.

So the groom took a look and saw that the land behind Xu Zaijing was flat and soft. There were no stones or other hard objects, so he didn't worry too much. But the female envoys waiting around Xu Zaijing were shocked, but most of them were pampered and more delicate than the concubines from small families, so there was no reaction at all.

But what made the groom's one-eyed eyes widen and his heart shocked was that Xu Zaijing actually held the pony by its neck and knocked it down with one hand.

This bravery in the face of danger and the strength to control the pony surprised him.

Xu Zaijing was already aware of his own strength. He held the pony's neck with one hand and held it down, unable to get up.

Wait until it stops struggling before letting go.

Letting go of his hand, Xiao Ma stopped having fun and rubbed his head affectionately on Xu Zaijing's sleeve.

"Oh, Saburo, I don't dare to come here anymore. Go back to the eldest lady's room quickly."

With that said, Xu Zaijing was carried away by the female envoy, leaving the pony in the open space to watch the terrifying humanoid cub being taken away.

"Madam, madam, please forgive me."

Mrs. Sun was embroidering with her daughters when she heard the female servant calling and raised her head.
  The eldest sister Xu Pingmei looked at Xu Zaijing who was covered in mud.
  "Brother, are you rolling on the ground again?"

Xu Anmei also looked curious.

The female envoy put Xu Zaijing down and quickly knelt on the ground and said

"My eldest wife, I'm sorry, but my servant didn't take good care of me just now, and the third young master almost got trampled by a horse."

When Mrs. Sun heard this, her expression changed, she stood up and said, "What!!!???"

"You guys!!!" Mrs. Sun hurriedly came over, hugged Xu Zaijing and looked up and down.

"Mom, it's the pony that just gave birth. It was pinned to the ground by one of my hands."

Mrs. Sun breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the female envoy and asked
  "A pony?"

"Yes."

"Speak clearly next time."

The envoy bowed her head and said

"Yes, ma'am."

"Did Brother Jing really bring down a pony with one hand?"

"Yes, madam, that pony rushed towards the Third Young Master, but was knocked down by the Third Young Master with one hand." The female envoy also said with a surprised look on her face.

Mrs. Sun looked at her son in disbelief.

"I heard from my father that my ancestors of the Sun family have ancestors with supernatural powers. Could it be that they have been passed down to you?"

Xu Pingmei said curiously
  "Mom, is my little brother really that strong? Let me fight with him."

After saying that, he put down the handkerchief he was embroidering and walked towards Xu Zaijing.

Mrs. Sun was also interested in watching her son's strength.

The two siblings spread out their hands and feet on a coffee table.

Xu Pingmei, who refused to admit defeat, used both hands, but Xu Zaijing didn't even frown.

Xu Anmei didn't believe it, so she replaced her, but she tried so hard that Xu Zaijing still had the heart to yawn.

Seeing the smile in his mother's eyes, Xu Zaijing hugged his mother's legs and said
  "Mom, have I tamed that pony? Can I ride it?"

"You are still young. If you fall off the horse, it will break you!! No way!"

"Mom, you see I'm very strong. Mom, can you ask the servants at home to make a saddle? I don't want anything else for my birthday, okay, Mom~"

While talking, Xu Zaijing shook his mother.
