Lu Fenghe was made a little uncomfortable by their few words.
"Everyone has a favorite. You like lion dogs, and He Niang likes to order tea and burn incense." Mrs. Lu Si said.
After eating refreshments and resting for a while, they also felt refreshed.
"Come on, let's go for a walk. Come here." Qin Ling'er wiped her hands and stood up.
The fruit trees on the hill at the back are not very big, and there are some of all types of trees. If you have time to come often, there will be edible fruits in the orchard most of the year.
Most of the fish pond is also planted with lotus flowers, but they don’t dig lotus roots very much every year, so they dig some lotus roots for the servants in other courtyards to eat, and then give some to the Zhao family in Piling City, and leave the rest in the pond, where they will be harvested next year.
New flowers bloom and new lotus roots grow.
The children, led by Kang Shou and the horse breeder, had fed the foal candy, added fodder, brushed the horse's hair, and had been close to the foal for a while.
The two ponies no longer snort at the children. However, the ponies are still young and have not yet been shoed, so they cannot ride horses often. However, the children can just walk around on the grass for a few times and it will be fine.
As for the mare sent, although it is nailed with shoe nails, the mare has never been used for riding. On the pasture, the mare is mostly used to give birth to foals. Lu Fenghe does not pursue speed or require the horse to have any endurance.
Mares turned out to be the best choice.
The pony has been put on a saddle specially made for children. Brother Chi is a calm-tempered person, but looking at his younger siblings, Sister Qing can't hold back her temper and is eager to try.
Brother Bao is smaller, and he was always led by others on horseback before. Now he is allowed to sit on the horse by himself. Brother Bao is a little afraid, and just walks around the pony without letting anyone hold him on the horse.
When Lu Fenghe and the others arrived, Sister Qing was being lifted up by the horse breeder and climbed onto the horse. Madam Lu Si was shocked, how could this child be so courageous?
Madam Lu Si wanted to step forward to stop her without thinking, but Mrs. Zhao held her back, "There are so many people protecting her, don't disturb the child's interest."
Brother Gou turned around again, raised his head again and said something to Shoukang. Brother Gou also raised his hand and asked Shoukang to lift him up.
Brother Bao was also a safe-tempered man. He didn't hurry when he got on the horse. Instead, he slowly leaned down and imitated Shoukang's example of slowly stroking the horse's back. Then Shoukang held the reins and walked slowly on the grass.
Sister Qing couldn't wait to get on the horse, just like Shen Nanxun and Shen Ke led them to ride horses before, and the horses would start running as soon as they clamped their legs.
Sister Qing was stopped by the horse breeder as soon as she made a move. Although the foal was born on a horse farm and is not a wild horse on the grassland, it has never been ridden by anyone. The animals are somewhat wild, although the horse looks
It is docile, but no one can say whether it will get angry if someone suddenly rides on it.
Lu Fenghe and the others went around the orchard and picked some pears and some late peaches. They planted a row of grapes on the side of the pond near the wall, extending to the other end of the grass.
There are not many grapes, just to build a grape trellis. If the master comes over and wants to fish, there will be a shady place, so the grape branches and leaves are growing well, but the grapes are just average.
This is the season when grapes are ripe. Even though the grapes are not carefully served, they can still be eaten, but the berries are not big enough and the bunches of fruits do not look too plump.
But it tasted pretty good, full of grape flavor, sweet and sour, which suited Lu Fenghe's taste, so she cut several bunches in a row.
Qin Ling'er saw this and picked two of them to taste.
"Ah, why is it so sour?"
Lu Fenghe smiled, Qin Ling'er has liked sweet things since she was a child, the sweeter the better, but Lu Fenghe felt that it was too sweet, and the fruit had to be a little sour.
Madam Lu Si also came over and tasted one, "Hey, this tastes pretty good."
"No, it doesn't look good, but it's quite delicious. Just pick some and wash them."
Madam Lu Sif tasted a few more, then turned to look at Mrs. Zhao, "Mom, can you pick more and go back to make fruit wine? These grapes have a good taste."
Zhao laughed, "What's wrong with this? Just let someone pick it."
Lu Fenghe watched the children having fun. It was too hot for them to go elsewhere at noon, so he simply asked the servants from other courtyards to find scissors and baskets. They sat under the grape trellis, enjoyed the cool air, looked at the children, and cut
A few bunches of grapes.
Lu Balang was the only one left in the family, so Zhao simply sent someone back to tell Lu Balang that the evening meal would be eaten in another courtyard, and it didn't matter whether Lu Balang came or not.
Brother Zhi was also carried on the horse, supported by others, and led for two laps. After all, he was still young and not very courageous. After walking around for two laps, he started to clamor to get off. When Brother Zhi came down, he walked towards Qin Ling.
Run this way.
He ran into Qin Ling'er's arms and told Qin Ling'er how fun it was to ride a horse with a blushing face.
Several people laughed after hearing this.
Brother Chi waited until his younger brothers and sisters had walked around twice before getting on the horse. He followed the same steps as the horse breeder taught them.
"Brother Chi's temperament is exactly the same as that of Shiro." Mrs. Zhao looked at Brother Chi and said suddenly.
"Mom, are you thinking about fourth brother?" Lu Fenghe was the only one who could tease Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao glared at Lu Fenghe, "Oh, I don't want fourth brother."
The three older children played for a while and then ran over. When they saw the fruit in their baskets, they picked it up and started eating it. Lu Fenghe didn't care. He wiped the peach with a handkerchief, tore off the skin of the peach and asked Brother Chu to directly eat it.
eat.
Mrs. Lu was very nervous and asked someone to wash her. Seeing Lu Fenghe, she directly let Brother Ba eat it. The two children sweated all over their foreheads and obviously couldn't wait to wash themselves before eating.
I wiped it with a handkerchief again and again, and the children were very nervous when eating it, for fear that the children would not eat it cleanly and have a stomachache.
The children ate the fruit, quenched their thirst, and went to ride horses again.
The servants in the other courtyard saw that their master wanted to have dinner for dinner, and the other courtyard did not prepare any good food. They could only let the masters eat fresh food and go to the pond to touch the lotus roots. Lu Fenghe was a little uncomfortable with their few words.
"Everyone has a favorite. You like lion dogs, and He Niang likes to order tea and burn incense." Mrs. Lu Si said.
After eating refreshments and resting for a while, they also felt refreshed.
