Chapter 28 Examination
From autumn to winter, the weather is getting colder. Mu Guiying has been appointed to take charge of the affairs of Mu Kezhai and has been the surrogate owner of Mu Kezhai for almost half a month. Mu Kezhai's brothers are used to it. Their Ying sister hides in Jin Guiyuan all day and does not interfere in the affairs of the village.
But on this day, a large piece of paper was posted everywhere in the village. In an hour, the whole village people knew what was written on this big paper: Mu Guiying and Muzhai owners will hold a competition in the whole village, and they will be divided into several games, and each win a prize of 100 cents; and among the final winners, who can win Mu Guiying can not only get more prizes, but also be 'pro promoted'.
This paper immediately made the calmest Mukezhai boil at this time in previous years. Insightful, I feel that such a test is a little like the imperial examination in the court, but in fact it is a little different. Those who have no knowledge are greedy for those prizes. Although a hundred yuan is not much, it is only a victory. If it continues to win, it will be a lot of wealth. Moreover, it is a great good thing that the winner can be promoted in the end. Everyone forgot the matter of 'winning Mu Guiying'. In their minds, although Mu Guiying has been studying abroad for ten years, isn't she still a little lady? How cruel it can it be?
In fact, not only the people in the village think so, but also the Mu Tong and Mu Tie brothers. As soon as they heard the news, the two brothers rushed to 'Jin Guiyuan'. At this time, Mu Guiying was in the room, telling jokes with Jin Ping, Yin Ping and Baoer. Jin Ping, Yin Ping and Baoer saw that the two brothers came and seemed to have something to say, so they retreated.
Mu Tong waited for the three to close the door and said urgently, "Sister, how can you compete with those men? It's better than letting them compare themselves."
"That's right, that's right. Why don't they compete with me and Dalang? Mu Tie also nodded repeatedly.
Mu Guiying looked at the two brothers, smiled and said slowly, "Two brothers, why do you think your sister is so delicate? Don't forget that my sister's master is the famous Our Lady of Lishan.
Seeing that Mu Tong and Mu Tie still didn't believe it, Mu Guiying immediately got up and took them to the martial arts arena. Seeing Mu Guiying holding a bow and arrow in the center of the arrow, Mu Tong and Mu Tie waved their hands repeatedly: "Okay, sister, don't look anymore. Let's go back."
After Mu Tianwang heard the news, he repeatedly praised his daughter to Zhong Erniang. Zhong Erniang also slowly put down her long-hanging heart. And those people in the village who rubbed their hands and didn't pay attention to Mu Guiying didn't know this. Mugua couldn't help sneering in his heart: You reckless men, there are times when you cry. By the way, when Mu Guiying and the three of them were competing in the martial arts arena, Mugua was watching.
Next, under the arrangement of Mu Guiying, Mu Gua took Mu Tong and Mu Tie to make preparations. There are 120 people in the village, excluding those female relatives, and 112 people have signed up, which happens to be divided into four groups. The largest group can be divided into 14 groups, each with two people. Who is the opponent of the group, it is decided by drawing lots. The four winners of the four groups will have the most competition with Mu Guiying and Muzhai. As for the content of the test, it is archery.
In the previous life, archery was an Olympic event. Mu Guiying thinks that this is not without reason. Think about it, everyone stands in the same place and shoots the same target. It's not bloody, it doesn't hurt people, and it can also distinguish winners and losers. It was really a good competitive project in ancient times.
The specific rule is very simple, that is, how many arrows will be shot within the specified time. The shorter the time, the more hearts you hit, the winner. And the judgment of the test is the remaining eight people, each in pairs. These eight people are older than King Mu, and they are extremely rigorous. The people in the village are very convinced, so they don't have to worry about any 'fake'.
Everything was ready, that is, three days later, Mu Kezhai ushered in the first snow and also welcomed Mu Kezhai's 'First Archery Test'. Mu Tianwang and Zhong Erniang, as 'special guests', also participated in the opening ceremony before the game. Moreover, Mu Tianwang also took out the bow and arrow that followed him to fight against the Liao soldiers and asked the master as a 'special reward'.
When it comes to this bow and arrow, many people in the village have witnessed it with new eyes. Mu Tianwang once demonstrated the power of this bow and arrow in front of everyone. The arrow shot is not only powerful, fast, and has a longer range than ordinary bows. It is said that this bow is made of fine red sandalwood, which is extremely light and easy to carry. Therefore, when the bow and arrow was displayed, the people in the village were excited.
Taking advantage of this atmosphere, Mu Guiying got up and made his first official appearance as the agent of the village owner. Mu Guiying's body was bright armor, but Mu Tianwang specially created it for his daughter to deter the people in the village. Not to mention, Mu Guiying is really heroic and valiant, with the smell of a female general. Seeing the pride of the Mu family behind him, everyone in the village lit up.
Mu Tong and Mu Tie brothers yearn for the armor on Mu Guiying. Mu Tianwang knew that the two brothers would be envious and created them separately. However, it was not given to Mu Tong and Mu Tie immediately. It depends on the performance of the two people, and finally decide not to take it out. Look at Mu Tianwang and raise 'boys poor and girls rich.' How thorough the execution is.
Turn around and continue to talk about Mu Guiying. Mu Guiying appeared in front of the people in the village and was very popular. I don't know, but her heart has been playing drums. From her previous life to this life, Mu Guiying has never spoken to so many people, and it is impossible not to be nervous. Fortunately, Mu Guiying has been exercising to pretend to be a child in front of people since she was born, and now she can pretend to be calm on the surface.
First, he punched all the people in the village. Mu Guicai cleared his throat and made a 'small speech'. The main content is to talk about the rules of the test, and there are other things to pay attention to. Finally, the purpose of the test was repeatedly emphasized: the second test and the friendship first.
Mu Guiying said briefly and announced the start of the test. The people in the village who wanted to conduct the competition were also transferred to the competition venue - the martial arts arena. Because the martial arts venue can't accommodate four large groups to test at the same time, Mu Guiying decided to have a group competition every day. First, there is time to take Shimukozhai; second, the winner has time to rest.
Seeing all the people in the village go to the martial arts arena, Mu Guiying said goodbye to her parents and took Jin Ping, Yin Ping and Baoer back to her 'Jin Guiyuan'. Entering the room, Mu Guiying sat on several cases in front of the bookcase and began to think again with her hands on her cheeks. Seeing this, Jin Ping and Yin Ping were very familiar with making tea and grinding ink alone.
"Yinping, if you go to the village to adopt some little women without relatives, will they think Mu Kezhai is a copycat?" Mu Guiying's sudden voice made Yinping's hands tremble, and ink splashed on several cases.
While wiping several cases with a cloth, Yin Ping said without thinking, "Other people don't know Yin Ping, but Yin Ping herself knows that Mu Kezhai is a cottage, but it's very good. Yin Ping is very happy to live here."
"You are really a contented person." Mu Guiying shook his head and said that it was too complicated to ask Yin Ping. It's better to ask Jin Ping.
Coincidentally, as soon as she finished thinking about Jin Ping, Mu Guiying saw Jin Ping push the door in with tea. Mu Guiying immediately rejoiced and said to Jin Ping, "Jin Ping, if Mu Kezhai proposes to adopt those fatherless and motherless orphans, do you think they will come to Mu Kezhai?"
Jin Ping put down the teacup and said in surprise, "Sister Ying, why do you adopt an orphan girl?"
Mu Guiying smiled and said, "Don't worry about this. Do you think they will come to Mukezhai?"
"If you are younger, as long as you have food, you will definitely come. Older people will think about whether they will be 'bullied' when they come to the cottage. Jin Ping saw Mu Guiying frowning, meditating, and said quickly, "Sister Ying, this is just Jin Ping's idea of encountering this kind of thing. As for others, Jin Ping is not clear.
Mu Guiying shook his head and whispered, "You're right. If I were to think about it, the cottage is the old nest of mountain thieves, and men are fine. Women are very easy to be bullied. It seems that we have to think about it..."
Before dinner, the two brothers Mu Tong and Mu Tie came to 'Jin Guiyuan' sweating. They held the list of winners of today's, and there was also the combination of today's group a few days later. Mu Tie saw Mu Guiying looking at the list very seriously, patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, sister, when they drew lots, I stared at it without blinking. I'm sure it's true."
"I know that the second brother is very serious, but my sister is the surrogate owner of the village. You have to remember the names of the people in the village." Mu Guiying finished reading it and put the paper in her hand aside. Then, he looked at Mu Tong and said, "Big brother, how old are the people in our village? How many are married and how many unmarried..."
Seeing Mu Guiying's question in such detail, Mu Tong quickly waved his hand: "sister, you don't have to ask any more questions. Two days later, the eldest brother will definitely find out the situation of everyone in the village and then tell you.
After saying that, Mu Tong pulled Mu Tie and fled. In the past few days, Mu Tong and Mu Tiezhen are a little afraid of Mu Guiying. The two brothers knew that Mu Guiying had been very smart since he was a child. Now, after the teaching of Our Lady of Lishan, she is more intelligent. Take this test as an example, the two brothers just want to break their heads, but they can't figure it out. No wonder his father Mu Tianwang would hand over Mu Kezhai to his sister Mu Guiying to take care of it. Mu Tong and Mu Tie looked at each other and saw the admiration and shame in each other's eyes.
Mu Guiying didn't have time to care about what the two brothers thought. After dinner, she asked Jin Ping to call their sister's adoptive father Mu Gua to 'Jin Guiyuan'. The two stayed for more than an hour in a room to decorate the study, and they didn't know what Mu Guiying and Mugua were talking about.
However, since the next day's match, Mugua and Jinping have not appeared in front of everyone. Until the last day Mu Guiying competed with the four winners, the two appeared in the martial arts arena...
