Chapter 165: Fighting with the Rabbit!



Chapter 165: Fighting with the Rabbit!

Some people were sweet and happy, while others were impetuous. For a while, the woods were full of the shadows of animals fleeing in all directions.

Zhihua and Xiaojian had been riding together since they entered the woods. When they shot the fifth rabbit, Zhihua couldn't help but ask, "Why did you shoot so many rabbits?"

Zhihua was really confused. Although Xiao Jian also shot other prey, his love for rabbits was far less than that.

The empty horse was full of the spoils they had just gotten, but compared to the others, the proportion of rabbits was really large. If Xiao Jian hadn't been so calm, she would have suspected that Xiao Jian had fought with the rabbits.

Fortunately, Xiao Jian's answer put her at ease.

"It should be autumn by the time we return to Beijing. I'll save the rabbit fur we hunted in advance and make it into a hand warmer for you after we return to Beijing. It will be comfortable and warm to the touch."

After listening to Xiao Jian's explanation, Zhihua couldn't help but blushing. She didn't expect that Xiao Jian hunted so many rabbits just to warm her hands.

"Although there are many good furs in the capital that can be made into hand warmers for you, this is the first time we have hunted together. I want it to accompany you all the time and bring you warmth." Finally, Xiao Jian added, "At least... before we get married."

It was the first time that Zhihua heard such straightforward and passionate words from Xiao Jian's mouth. Before, she was the one who took the initiative when they were together, but now it was suddenly the other way around. She didn't know how to react for a moment.

Just when Xiao Jian wanted to lower his head to see why Zhihua hadn't spoken yet, Zhihua suddenly looked up and kissed him, right on Xiao Jian's chin.

After the kiss, Zhihua turned around, not daring to look at Xiao Jian's reaction.

After a moment of stunned silence, Xiao Jian suddenly regretted not lowering his head earlier, otherwise he could have kissed her!

Unfortunately, Zhihua in front didn't know what the person behind was thinking. Seeing that the other person didn't move for a long time, she asked: "Aren't you going to take the rabbit back?"

"Oh! I'll go right away."

Xiao Jian, who was feeling regretful, was suddenly reminded by a voice. He was so scared that he thought his dirty thoughts had been discovered, so he quickly got off his horse and went to pick up the rabbit.

The atmosphere between the two of them was subtle, while Xu Tian and Benjamin on the other side seemed more serious.

Xu Tian was very aware of her own abilities. After entering the forest, she rode her horse slowly under the protection of Benjamin, without any intention of trying to hunt.

However, the two men didn’t know whether they were lucky or what, but they were unstoppable along the way. Rabbits and pheasants were just small items for them. They even hunted a sika deer.

To be honest, when Xu Tian saw the sika deer, she felt a surge of justice for a moment, because in the era when she came here, sika deer were national first-class protected animals, and they could not possibly shoot them. However, for that era, eating venison was still very normal, so Xu Tian finally witnessed with her own eyes Benjamin tying the sika deer that he had beaten to death to the horse.

"We can eat venison today. We must ask the chef to cook it well when we go back." Benjamin said to Xu Tian while driving the horse forward.

Before Xu Tian could answer, she seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "I remember hearing in Master Ji's class that before two people get married, the man has to give the woman a betrothal gift, which includes wild geese. How about I shoot one today?"

"Dayan! But we are in Mongolia now, we still have to go through those procedures!" Xu Tian didn't know how Benjamin's train of thought suddenly jumped here. Weren't they talking about venison before!

Just now she was still imagining what a sika deer tasted like, and was suddenly stunned by the wild goose.

And they are in Mongolia now, how do they go about the process?

"My teacher in the capital will complete this process, but as for the wild geese, I still want to make a pair for you." Before Benjamin left, he had already made arrangements for the marriage.

He married Xu Tian. Although she said that her hometown did not have so many wedding customs, and most of them were Western-style weddings, he still wanted to give her a perfect wedding according to the local customs.

Not only for Xu Tian, ​​but also for her father and mother. The fact that the two elders were willing to marry Xu Tian to him was already a big concession. He didn't want the daughter of their dreams to get married so casually.

This pair of wild geese is his gift to Xu Tian, ​​and also his wish for their bright future.

After understanding Benjamin's intentions, Xu Tian did not refuse and happily continued hunting with him.
