In the evening, when the two best friends were preparing to go home, they learned that Xiao Yunya had been sent back by someone arranged by Xiao Yunyu.
Li Sisi was not surprised by Xiao Yunya's willfulness, so she took Shen Baiying with her in the carriage back to the city.
They made an appointment to go on an autumn outing to the suburbs to watch horse racing.
When Shen Baiying came back, she brought some things for Pei Yu'an and went to Pei's house early in the morning to deliver the things.
I spent the whole morning chatting with Aunt Pei.
After hearing Aunt Pei say that she had too many vegetables to eat, he taught her how to grow some herbs that could be cultivated.
After hearing what she said, Aunt Pei felt like a new world had opened up to her, and she kept praising her for being smart and capable.
I also heard that she and Li Sisi and others had made an appointment to go on an autumn outing in the suburbs in the afternoon, and they made a lot of delicious food for her to take with them at noon.
After lunch, the sun was shining brightly.
The autumn wind swept across the grass in the suburbs, raising waves of grass that surged towards the sky.
Li Sisi and Li Nian had already arrived at the agreed place. When they saw Pei Yanli beside Shen Baiying, the two best friends were stunned.
Li Sisi muttered to herself: "Why is he here?"
"Maybe Aunt Pei still wants to match Brother Pei and Bai Ying?" Li Nian's voice was uncertain.
She had seen Shen Baiying and Pei Yu'an getting along in the military camp a few days ago, and she always felt that there was some kind of tacit understanding between the two.
Perhaps neither of them noticed it themselves, but bystanders can see more clearly.
Thinking about the fact that Shen Baiying has liked Pei Yanli for so many years, and that she came on an autumn outing with Pei Yanli today, he couldn't figure out Shen Baiying's true thoughts for a moment.
Li Sisi didn't feel embarrassed at first, but Pei Yanli's eyes were too strong and straightforward, and he didn't even consider that there were other people around, so she wanted to say something but stopped herself several times.
She didn't understand. He had already made his choice, so why was he still so hesitant?
Never mind, it doesn’t matter.
It's all over anyway.
Li Sisi smiled calmly: "Why is Brother Pei here too?"
Pei Yanli locked his eyes with her, a bitter taste choking his throat. Thousands of words could only be reduced to one sentence: "Sisi, long time no see."
Li Sisi tightened her grip on the reins, her brow furrowed slightly, and she pretended to be casual and calm. "It's been a long time since we last met. Brother Pei hasn't changed at all. He's still as serious as before."
She laughed twice.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Li Nian said, "In Beijing, you can only ride horses at the horse farm. Sisi, don't you always complain about being too restricted? Today we can run however we want."
Li Sisi quickly agreed, "Yes, Chenchen also said that the horse farm is already the largest in Beijing. I think riding on the vast plains of the northwest is more enjoyable."
Chenchen...
It's so intimate...
Pei Yanli tightened his fingers around the reins, his facial features tense in an instant.
Even during the best times between him and Sisi, he still called her by her full name.
I didn’t feel strange calling out my full name before, but now when I compare them I realize how big the difference is.
The person Sisi liked was never Pei Yanli, but the handsome and noble young man from the capital, Xiao Yunchen.
Shen Baiying smiled and agreed, "I haven't ridden a horse for a long time. I used to hang out with those grown men in the barracks and rarely had the chance to have fun."
She looked at Li Sisi and said, "How about we have a competition? Whoever loses will buy dinner tonight!"
"Okay!" Li Sisi responded readily. "My riding skills have improved a lot now. How do we compete?"
“Old rules…” Before Shen Baiying finished speaking, she saw a group of girls riding horses towards her.
The girl in the lead was wearing a bright red riding suit, and her figure was vigorous and vigorous. From a distance, one could tell that she was an excellent rider.
Shen Baiying recognized the person at a glance and waved and shouted: "Xingmian! It's me——"
Su Xingmian rode his horse over, and the horse stopped just inches away from Li Sisi's head.
“Whoa—”
She glanced at Pei Yanli, then looked at Shen Baiying and said enthusiastically: "How could you bear to leave the barracks? I asked you to come and play with me before, but you always said you were busy."
Shen Baiying explained: "I haven't had a vacation for a long time, and my mother has often mentioned it. This time Sisi and Nian Nian came to the military camp to find me, so I followed them back."
"So that's how it is." Su Xingmian's eyes fell on Pei Yanli. "Sir, the garrison commander is always busy with official duties. Is it just a coincidence that you are free today?"
Pei Yanli frowned and was about to speak.
Su Xingmian had already asked Li Sisi, "Miss Sisi, do you want to join us in the horse race?"
Li Sisi's eyes lit up. "Great! I've never participated in a horseback riding competition before! What are the rules?"
"We will use flags as boundaries..." Su Xingmian introduced the rules of the game.
Li Sisi thought it sounded simple and was eager to try. She turned to look at Li Nian and said, "Niannian, do you want to play with us?"
Li Nian nodded: "Okay." Before in the capital, she didn't dare to ride her horse fast because the place was small and she was afraid that everyone's horses would collide with each other.
There is no need to worry about this in the boundless plains of the Northwest.
After discussing the rules of the competition and the reward and punishment system, they began the horse racing competition.
The girls had a lot of fun playing together.
Shen Baiying felt as if she had returned to the time before the tragedy, gathering with her friends and having fun.
Li Sisi had never experienced this kind of novel and exciting sport before, and she was in high spirits for a moment.
Li Nian's riding skills were the worst among them, so she didn't dare to rush forward with them.
She rode at the back, focusing on participating.
Anyway, the punishment for the last place is to treat everyone to a meal.
A meal at the most expensive restaurant in Xidi City doesn’t cost much.
The main thing is that everyone can eat, drink and have fun together, which is something that money can’t buy.
After all, she is really not good at making friends, and now she is having fun with everyone, which is a rare joy.
On the way back, Su Xingmian rode his horse slowly towards Pei Yanli.
Lowering his voice, he questioned, "Is this why you are willing to attend my birthday party?"
Pei Yanli frowned and looked at her: "Miss Su, where do you get this from? I have already personally gone to your house to deliver a gift for your birthday."
Su Xingmian said in a low voice: "You clearly know what I mean!"
She looked at the man with a deep and handsome face. She used to think that his pair of black eyes were always deep and calm like a pool of stagnant water.
She tried to awaken the deep stagnant water, but found that what she was trying to do, some people could do easily just by standing there, even if they did nothing.
She said unwillingly: "Li Sisi is the wife of Mr. Xiao Er. No matter how much you can't let her go, she won't even look at you!"
Pei Yanli said indifferently: "What does it have to do with you?"
He glanced at Su Xingmian, who looked unwilling, with cold eyes, and said in a cold tone: "Ms. Su, take care of yourself. You don't need to worry about my affairs."
