Chapter 91 Snowball Fight
Chapter 91 Snowball Fight
But the horses used for the carriage could not possibly outrun Wei Xiuming's beloved horse.
In particular, Wei Xiuming set off several days in advance.
The chances of Wen Yuzhu catching up with him are extremely slim.
She didn't dare to rest along the way, constantly urging the coachman to go faster.
At first, the coachman patiently explained to her that this was already the fastest speed possible, but Wen Yuzhu was still not satisfied.
The coachman was furious and full of complaints.
Wei Dongning hasn't done anything else these past two days; whenever she has time, she asks Xiao Wu to give her real-time updates on Wen Yuzhu's condition.
When she saw the coachman quit, Wei Dongning burst out laughing: "Isn't Wen Yuzhu's specialty the green tea routine? Why don't you use it now?"
Wen Yuzhu was quite good-looking; whenever she used her, the water that the groom drank for half a month would have a tea-like taste.
Xiao Wu shrugged: "She doesn't have time to play the scheming woman. If she doesn't hurry back, her brother, who is her father, might lose his life."
"She's just too confident. You could even say she's a bit arrogant. If she had kept an eye on my elder brother, even if she hadn't succeeded in moving into the Marquis's mansion, she wouldn't be in this passive position now."
"I think so too. Now we're just waiting to find out who's behind them."
Xiao Wu was incredibly curious about who that person was.
If it weren't for some important figure appearing, it would definitely go and settle accounts with the Supreme God.
"Hey, Xiao Wu, do you think they're currently in a 'he runs away, she chases' situation?"
However, she was the one who couldn't escape.
Xiao Wu looked around, picked out the novel "The Overbearing Prince Falls in Love with Me" that Wei Dongning had recently been reading, and threw it directly into the brazier without hesitation: "The most important thing for you now is to throw away all these domineering CEO novels."
"What am I supposed to see if I throw them all away!"
Wei Dongning reached out to try and save him.
However, the flames were dancing too brightly, so she withdrew her hand.
Xiao Wu found her a few e-books of female protagonist novels: "Let's eat something good."
After running for half a month, Wei Xiuming left his horse at the home of a fellow villager he knew before he arrived at the border.
He entered the city with a scruffy beard and walked along the bustling streets.
Even his closest friends would be stunned for a few seconds by his current appearance.
Because he doesn't look much better than a homeless person now.
Wei Xiuming walked straight to a wonton shop on the side of the street and changed his voice: "Grandpa, a bowl of wontons, please."
While waiting for the wontons to be served, Wei Xiuming kept staring at the clinic across the street.
When there is no need for fighting, Dr. Wen will help with medical care here.
The prescribed medications were all inexpensive.
Therefore, Dr. Wen has a very good reputation among the townspeople.
Wei Xiuming found it hard to imagine the impact if Dr. Wen really betrayed them.
As night fell, under the moonlight, Wei Xiuming slipped and hid on the roof of Dr. Wen's house.
A short while later, a man went inside.
As their conversation continued to reach Wei Xiuming's ears, his heart gradually grew cold.
Turning over and gazing at the stars, Wei Xiuming muttered to himself, "Dr. Wen, Dr. Wen, I consider myself to have treated you fairly well..."
Dr. Wen's position in the military was almost second only to his own.
In military campaigns, injuries are inevitable.
Dr. Wen's medical skills are extremely high, and he can always help them recover as quickly as possible.
Sometimes he felt that staying at the border was a waste of Wen Junyi's talents.
If it weren't for Dr. Wen's betrayal, he would have wanted to take Dr. Wen back to the capital and help him find a job at the Imperial Medical Academy.
After lying down for a while, Wei Xiuming sneaked back to the military camp under the cover of darkness.
If someone is plotting against him, he naturally needs to prepare countermeasures in advance.
It's a pity that he can't stay in the capital to be with his parents and relatives on this Lantern Festival.
This year, Beijing experienced an unusually heavy snowfall, and Wei Dongning's plan to set off fireworks for the Lantern Festival was ruthlessly interrupted by a sudden downpour.
Wei Dongning sat by the window, bored.
She loved watching snow, but after transmigrating, it snowed so often that she gradually became numb to it.
Even now, she still somewhat dislikes snowy days.
Not only was it cold, but it also disrupted her plans.
"Ningbao, you can go have a snowball fight." Xiao Wu didn't quite understand either.
Every time it snows, Wei Dongning either writes or draws on it.
At most, we'll just build a snowman.
She seems to have never thought of having a snowball fight, something as fun as that.
Wei Dongning blinked, picked up Xiao Wu, and gave the kitten a kiss on the cheek: "Oh right, how could I forget about it?"
Thinking about it carefully, it's actually because she had a heart condition in her past life, so she couldn't do something as exciting as a snowball fight, and that's why she subconsciously ignored this option.
But since she's as strong as an ox in this life, she should have her fill.
"Xiao Fu, Qian Rong, pack your things, we're going out for a snowball fight. Oh, and bring Bao Xing and Xiao Hu too."
"Miss, shouldn't we bring the young master along?" Xiao Fu asked Wei Dongning hesitantly.
Gu Peiyan was still in his study handling official business, and in Wei Dongning's opinion, he was unlikely to participate in their activities, so she firmly shook her head: "No need, he's busy."
Wei Dongning, fully equipped, led everyone to a relatively spacious area, explained the rules of the snowball fight, and then took the lead in starting the battle.
Snowballs filled the sky, flying back and forth amidst the swirling snowflakes.
A series of perfect parabolas intertwined, somewhat resembling shooting stars streaking across the low sky.
"Stop right there!" Wei Dongning stood in the middle of the field, hands on her hips. "Why are you all so cautious during your snowball fight? Playing is all about being bolder!"
Their snowballs barely hit her, so she didn't get to enjoy herself.
She now suspects that the water in the moat was released by those few people.
The group exchanged bewildered glances, and finally Xiao Fu stepped forward: "Miss, we were just afraid of hurting you."
"I'm not made of dough. If you guys don't play properly, your monthly pay will be halved next month."
What are working people most afraid of?
Deduct my salary!
When someone threatens them with their wages, they naturally rise up in resistance.
The group exchanged glances, nodded, and in unison threw the snowballs they were holding at Wei Dongning.
Even Xiao Wu, who had come out to roll around in the snow, was not spared.
Wei Dongning, not to be outdone, threw the snowballs in her hand at them.
I felt a great sense of satisfaction.
When it comes to playing games, everyone should be treated equally.
After finishing her official business, Gu Peiyan came out of the study and heard laughter and noise coming from the courtyard.
Following the sound, I saw several people throwing snowballs at each other.
He subconsciously frowned, wanting to make them stop.
As a result, a snowball flew from someone's hand and hit Gu Peiyan right in the face.
For a moment, the courtyard fell silent.
When Wei Dongning saw Gu Peiyan get hit, she froze for a moment, then burst into merciless laughter: "Hahahaha, poor Gu Peiyan, you're so pitiful."
Gu Peiyan wiped the snow off her face, expressionless, grabbed Wei Dongning's wrist, and pulled her toward the main house.
Xiao Fu wanted to follow worriedly, but Wei Dongning stopped her, saying, "It's okay, you guys have fun."
