Chapter 287 Learning to Ride a Horse
After everyone had been playing around for a while, the third girl also wanted to go horseback riding.
"Siyue, let's go horseback riding too. Mu Fan and I will teach you." Gu Xinglan pulled Xiao Siyue to the place where the horses were tied up.
"Siyue, do you want to choose for yourself or should I choose for you?" Gu Xinglan pointed to the rows of horses in the stable.
"Xinglan, are all these yours?"
“Yes, these are all raised in the horse farm, so we can come and play sometimes. Look, that horse is mine.” Gu Xinglan pointed to a white horse inside.
Xiao Siyue stared brightly at the white horse. Its coat was soft and pure white, clearly indicating that it was a well-fed horse.
"Xinglan, does your horse have a name?"
“Yes, it’s called Taxue. Taxue is very docile and has been with me for several years.” Gu Xinglan walked to Taxue’s side and stroked the horse’s neck.
When Ta Xue saw its master, it obediently lowered its head and let Gu Xinglan pet it.
Xiao Siyue was a little envious. Once she learned to ride a horse, she would also find herself a good one.
"Mu Fan, did you ride a horse over?" Xiao Siyue looked at Ye Mu Fan again.
"I didn't ride a horse today, I'll choose one here later," Ye Mufan said.
"Xinglan, can you help me choose a horse? I don't know much about horses and don't know how to choose." Xiao Siyue looked at them for a long time but still didn't know which batch to choose.
"Xinglan, why don't you ride the Snowmobile later? It's gentle, and it's suitable for you since you've just started learning," Gu Xinglan suggested after thinking for a moment.
“Okay, then I’ll have to trouble Ta Xue.” Xiao Siyue nodded.
"Let's go over there." Gu Xinglan led the horse out of the stable, and Ye Mufan quickly chose a horse that looked a bit temperamental.
"Mu Fan, this horse seems to have a bit of a temper. Are you sure you're okay?" Although Xiao Siyue didn't know how good Ye Mu Fan's riding skills were, she still wanted to remind him, since safety was the most important thing.
Ye Mufan smiled at Xiao Siyue: "It's okay. I've ridden the horses here before. They may look temperamental, but they're fine once you get on them."
"Oh, that's good." Xiao Siyue was relieved.
After leading the horses to the riding arena, Gu Xinglan and Xiao Siyue did not ride them first, but instead began to explain some precautions for riding horses to Gu Xinglan and Xiao Siyue.
"Thank you, I've noted it all down." Xiao Siyue nodded.
"Then I'll help you onto the horse first, and I'll lead it while you get used to it. Mu Fan, you keep an eye on Si Yue," Gu Xinglan instructed seriously.
"Okay," they both replied at the same time.
With the help of the two men, Xiao Siyue mounted the horse and slowly began to walk around the factory.
"Siyu, doesn't your sister know how to ride a horse yet?" Gu Yunze asked, looking at the three members of Xiehe at the riding field.
"Yes, I came here today intending to teach her, but I didn't expect Sister Xinglan to start teaching her first."
"This is the first time I've seen Xinglan so patient. It seems the three of them get along quite well."
"Hmm, they must be tired. I'll go teach Yue'er how to ride a horse. Let the two younger sisters go and rest for a while." Xiao Siyu said, getting up and heading towards Xiao Siyue.
"Thank you both for teaching Yue'er. You must be tired. Let me do it. You can go and rest for a while." The horse farm is quite large, and it's not appropriate for two young girls to lead the horses.
"It's okay, Siyu-ge, I'm not tired." Gu Xinglan shook her head.
"Xinglan, Mufan, you two go have fun. Let my brother teach me. It's rare for you to come out like this. Didn't you say you wanted to go horseback riding?" Xiao Siyue added.
"OK then."
"Brother, bring your horse over here and let Xing ride it for a while."
"Okay, Yue'er, wait a moment."
"Xinglan, Mufan, go ride horses! I want to see how dashing you are on the track." Xiao Siyue winked playfully.
"Okay, let's go then." Gu Xinglan and Xiao Siyue also wanted to go horseback riding, but they were worried that Xiao Siyue couldn't ride and they didn't want to leave her behind. Now that Xiao Siyue said so, the two of them stopped refusing.
"Mu Fan, let's have a competition between the two of us," Gu Xinglan said to Ye Mu Fan.
"Alright, then Xinglan, I won't let you off easy." At this moment, Ye Mufan's baby face was full of confidence.
"I won't give it to you either," Gu Xinglan said confidently.
Seeing that Xiao Siyu had already brought the horse over, Xiao Siyue said, "Brother, wait a moment, we'll learn later. I want to watch Xinglan and Mufan race first."
“Okay.” Xiao Siyu naturally wouldn’t refuse. He was also very curious about how good the two girls were at riding horses.
The others had the same goal.
"Want to make a bet with me on who will win between the two of them?" Bai Minghao suggested.
"Okay, but if we're going to gamble, there should be a prize."
“No problem. I bought this jade pendant from Linglong Pavilion before. I used it to suppress Xinglan.” Gu Yunze said, taking a jade pendant off his waist.
“Haven’t you always been eyeing my bronze sword? If you win, it’s yours,” Lu Zhijin said. He had found the bronze sword by chance; it was very precious and had always been kept in his study. Gu Yunze saw it once and took a liking to it.
"Really?" Gu Yunze's eyes lit up; that was the precious sword he had been eyeing for so long.
“Of course it’s true.” Lu Zhijin nodded.
"Hehe, you guys have to be my witnesses, Zhi Jin said it herself." Gu Yunze was delighted.
Everyone else also placed bets as a prize.
The competition between Gu Xinglan and Ye Mufan officially began, both with determined expressions on their faces.
The two horses galloped off, and Xiao Siyue was thrilled. Sure enough, when girls are cool, boys have nothing on them. They're so awesome!
Their hair fluttered in the wind, their eyes fixed straight ahead, filled with the determination to win. At that moment, their charm captivated everyone present.
Seeing the two dashing figures, Xiao Siyue became even more determined to learn horseback riding well, thinking that she too would gallop on horseback like that.
The race results are finally in, and to everyone's surprise, the two of them reached the finish line at the same time.
"Haha, Xinglan, I didn't expect we'd arrive at the same time! Looks like I need to work harder; I'm sure I can beat you next time." Ye Mufan's face was beaming with a smile.
"Okay, let's compete again next time."
"Siyue." The two dismounted and approached Xiao Siyue.
"Xinglan, Mufan, you two are so cool, so amazing, I'm totally stunned!" Xiao Siyue excitedly rushed towards the two of them.
"Hehe, thanks Siyue. You should learn quickly, and the three of us can compete together next time." Gu Xinglan was a little embarrassed by Xiao Siyue's praise.
"Yes, yes, I will definitely study hard. You have no idea how envious I was just now. I want to be like you guys too." Xiao Siyue nodded and said enviously.
"Brother, let's go, let's continue learning, I need to learn quickly." After saying that, Xiao Siyue couldn't wait to pull Xiao Siyu to learn to ride a horse.
