Chapter 24
Ye Tianhui: "Well, how did you know?"
Normally, even if she called, he wouldn't be able to see the caller ID. Besides, she used the phone at the horse farm to call, so he shouldn't know.
Gu Shizhang's lips curled up slightly. "I guessed. No one has called my home phone number in a thousand years. Since there is a missed call, it must be you."
Ye Tianhui: "I thought you had gone abroad, but it turns out you haven't."
Gu Shizhang: "The plan has changed, so it's postponed. My flight for the day after tomorrow has already been booked, and I thought it would be a good opportunity to come and see you today."
Ye Tianhui: "When did you come here?"
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "I just got here too. I thought you were getting off work soon, so I came to wait for you. Let's go, let's go eat first, and then I'll help you move."
Ye Tianhui felt a light joy in her heart: "Okay."
Gu Shizhang was clearly in a good mood too. He put his hands in his khaki trouser pockets and asked with a smile, "What do you want to eat?"
Ye Tianhui glanced at him: "Do you want to treat me to a meal?"
Gu Shizhang looked at her with a smile: "If I told you to treat me, you would probably jump up and down, and then you might even break up with me."
Ye Tianhui hummed softly: "It's okay for you to know."
To her, nothing is more important than money. Friends who always want her to treat them to a meal are definitely not true friends.
At this time, the gate of the racecourse opened and a line of vehicles came out of the racecourse.
Gu Shizhang glanced at him indifferently, raised his hand, and lightly pressed the brim of his hat with his slender fingers. He smiled and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to eat clay pot rice."
So the two of them went over to eat clay pot rice.
Perhaps because of the hard work that day, Ye Tianhui had a good appetite and thought the rice was very fragrant.
Seeing this, Gu Shizhang added another bowl of rice. Ye Tianhui was a little surprised when she heard him call the boss "handsome boy" and asked curiously, "What is that?"
Gu Shizhang raised his eyes and looked at Ye Tianhui with a smile: "The steamed rice is crystal white, isn't it very beautiful? This is called a handsome boy."
Ye Tianhui suddenly realized it, savored it carefully, and found it interesting.
Gu Shizhang suddenly asked, "Why did you call me suddenly during the day?"
Ye Tianhui: "I wanted to ask you something, but now I don't need to."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh, what happened? Is it about work?"
Ye Tianhui then mentioned Ye Wenyin: "I don't like her."
Gu Shizhang frowned slightly: "Then why not just change jobs?"
Ye Tianhui remembered that the Ye family was coming to the horse farm, which was an opportunity for her.
Didn’t they say that Mr. Ye would come? If Mr. Ye came, then her biological father might still come. Then she could come and recognize him on the spot!
Just come openly and see if the Ye family can refuse to recognize you!
Then he said, "No need, she's just a spoiled young lady, I don't care."
Gu Shizhang raised his eyes to look at her: "Why, do you have other ideas?"
Ye Tianhui didn't really want to talk about this with him.
She knew that Gu Shizhang must have some status and background; she could feel it.
She dated Jiang Lingfeng, met Lin Jianquan, chatted with Jessie, and also interacted with other staff members of the horse farm. She could feel that Gu Shizhang was different from them.
Gu Shizhang is a low-key person, but he is graceful, leisurely, dignified and casual, which is not the temperament of an ordinary jockey.
It is obvious that he has his own investments in the UK, and probably also has properties in Singapore or elsewhere. In short, he is a rich man with free time. The mention of being a jockey may not be a lie to her, it may just be his personal hobby.
But it didn't matter, she didn't care about his identity or background.
If two people get along well, then they should get along and be friends. As for their family background, she will not look down on Lin Jianquan because he is an orphan raised by selling meat, nor will she look up to him because of Gu Shizhang's wealth.
In this regard, she even felt that Gu Shizhang was the same.
Or from a very hypocritical and self-righteous perspective, she felt that her relationship with Gu Shizhang was a discard of these worldly disguises, such as money, status, and the fact that she was a mainland girl. These were not important in her eyes.
She felt the same about Gu Shizhang.
So she didn't plan to tell Gu Shizhang in detail about her life story that was like a melodrama, or her future plans.
She cared about this person very much, and she knew that as long as she asked, this person would help her. He was actually very good to her, and she could feel it.
But she still hopes to handle her own affairs.
When she smiled like this, Gu Shizhang raised his eyelids and looked at her inquiringly: "It seems that you have some plans?"
He asked her this twice, and she said, "—I suddenly remembered something."
Ye Tianhui said: "That day I reported to the racecourse for the first time and was almost late."
She started talking about how she had to abandon her car and run. Gu Shizhang's expression became a little subtle, and then he smiled: "It's something you, Ye Tianhui, would do."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Just at this moment, a car stopped next to me."
Gu Shizhang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh?"
Ye Tianhui then recounted the situation in general: "In short, at first glance, they seemed very kind, but in the end, they kicked me out of the car."
Gu Shizhang restrained his expression and asked in detail. Although Ye Tianhui did not mention her purpose, she did not hide too much. She told him how she spoke to the other party in a friendly manner, but the other party responded with a cold expression.
She finally said, "I just wonder if this person is Ye Wenyin's father?"
Gu Shizhang: "Why do you think he is?"
Ye Tianhui said with interest, "That's my guess. He's quite good-looking, no, very good-looking, and he has a scholarly air. He also sent Ye Wenyin to the horse farm, so I guess that's it. As for his age, he looks to be in his thirties."
Gu Shizhang's expression became serious.
He had a blank expression on his face, looking straight at Ye Tianhui opposite him: "Tianhui, you just came from the mainland, and your mind is simple. There may be some things you don't realize, so as your friend, I must remind you."
Ye Tianhui wondered: "What?"
At this time, the two had almost finished eating, so Gu Shizhang took Ye Tianhui away. The two did not take the bus, but just walked on the side of the road, talking as they walked.
Gu Shizhang was very patient and explained to Ye Tianhui in detail some conventional etiquette norms, as well as some workplace or adult etiquette.
Because he was concerned about Ye Tianhui's face, he spoke very reservedly, but he made everything clear.
Ye Tianhui is a person who is rough but meticulous. She is not ignorant, but she has never thought about it carefully. Now that Gu Shizhang has said this, she recalled the situation at that time and suddenly understood.
She began to analyze the matter from the beginning: "So, at first he parked his car in front of me and offered to give me a ride, but in fact it was not his turn at all, he did it on purpose."
Gu Shizhang nodded: "Yes, he has ulterior motives and is deliberately trying to flirt with you."
Ye Tianhui: "He later took out his coat and wanted to give it to me."
The night wind was cool, the lights were dim, and a hint of chill appeared in Gu Shizhang's dark eyes.
But he still said in a gentle voice: "First, don't wear a man's coat casually, it will arouse a man's reverie. Second, he is obviously overthinking it."
Ye Tianhui tried her best to recall: "I didn't do anything too inappropriate, I just felt a little sweaty on my back..."
But that's okay.
At this stage, she is more concerned about survival and making money. She is not a rich lady who never leaves the house, so she cannot pay attention to these details.
Gu Shizhang: "This shows that this person is prone to wild thoughts."
Ye Tianhui agreed somewhat: "It seems so. Some men, seeing a woman's arm, can think of having children with this woman!"
Gu Shizhang: “…”
After a pause, he admitted, "That makes some sense."
Ye Tianhui: "Then why did he kick me out of the car later?"
In response, Gu Shizhang looked away as if nothing had happened: "Maybe his mind is not normal."
However, Ye Tianhui realized it herself: "He misunderstood me and thought I was an indecent woman! He thought I was a prostitute!"
When Gu Shizhang heard this, helplessness suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Obviously, Ye Tianhui's life experience did not allow her to fully understand the colorful life of Hong Kong. All she knew about this kind of thing was "brothels" because she had only come into contact with brothels.
Obviously there is no such thing in the mainland, and she cannot access it.
She didn't know that with Ye Lixuan's status and position, and of course because of his outstanding appearance, there would be women who would try their best to get close to him, flirt with him, hoping to become his wife and become a phoenix.
Perhaps at the beginning, Ye Lixuan had some kind of affection for her, so he did something that was obviously contrary to his usual style and actually offered to give her a ride.
But after getting in the car, her behavior made Ye Lixuan misunderstand.
Ye Lixuan was a proud and aloof person, so he kicked her out of the car.
He comforted Ye Tianhui: "Tianhui, no, don't think too much."
Ye Tianhui: "He actually misunderstood me, how dare he misunderstand me? I tried so hard to be polite at the time, but he actually misunderstood me? He's so old, how could I be interested in him?"
I just wanted to jump up and beat him down!
She even foolishly guessed that this person was her biological father. Could her biological father be such a person?
Gu Shizhang: "This guy is obviously old. Even though he looks good, he's just a hypocrite. We don't care what he thinks. Why should we bother with him?"
Ye Tianhui sneered: "I was grateful, but I didn't expect this kind of person to be so self-righteous!"
She suddenly thought of Gu Zhihan: "This guy and that Gu family member are exactly the same, both arrogant and self-righteous. The next time I see him, I will definitely teach him a lesson!"
Gu Shizhang pursed his lips and smiled: "Yes, teach them a lesson, give them a beating, and they will know their last names."
Ye Tianhui was puzzled when she heard this and looked at him curiously: "Can't you persuade me not to cause trouble?"
How could there be such a friend who would exaggerate things when she was upset?
Gu Shizhang: "But you are angry, aren't you? If you are angry, shouldn't you beat them up?"
Ye Tianhui glanced at him and said, "How can you be so simple-minded? You don't even think in circles! How did you manage to build such a huge family business by doing things this way? You even have investments in the UK, so you're quite rich. Why is that all you think about?"
Gu Shizhang: “…”
Ye Tianhui chuckled: "How could I be that kind of person who is brave but not wise?"
Gu Shizhang asked tentatively: "Then what are you going to do?"
Ye Tianhui: "If I beat them up, it would certainly make me feel better, but it would only hurt their flesh and put me in jail. It would only be a short-term solution. If I want to deal with them, I will naturally take a long-term approach."
Gu Shizhang: "What should we do in the long run?"
Ye Tianhui smiled, but said calmly: "Of course I will rise to the top. Those scoundrels will eventually be trampled under my feet. Since I have already made up my mind, why should I worry about the length of time."
Gu Shizhang was slightly stunned when he heard this.
When she looked over, she saw the tranquil autumn air and the cool night breeze. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, looking elegant and free.
For a moment, his mind was a little dazed, as if he saw the little girl a thousand years ago, holding a two-foot-long green peak in her hand, and saying with a smile that she would kill all the villains in the world for him.
************
After returning home in the evening, Ye Tianhui began to pack her things. In fact, she didn't have much luggage to pack, just a few seasonal clothes and some simple daily necessities.
After packing up a bit, I piled the luggage aside and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, Ye Tianhui was still in her dream when she heard a knock on the door.
She woke up with a start and asked in a sleepy voice, "Who is it?"
She subconsciously thought it was the tenants in the building, or the old ladies or uncles or something, and the tedious matters like sanitation fees, rent, and hallway rubbish.
Who knew that Gu Shizhang's voice was heard: "I, it's already seven o'clock, don't you have to go to work today?"
Ye Tianhui was stunned: "Gu Shizhang?"
Gu Shizhang: "Call me by my first name, without my last name."
Ye Tianhui's mind was still not clear: "Okay, Shi Zhang, why are you here?"
She quickly got up, put on her clothes, and went to open the door for Gu Shizhang.
But after getting up, I looked at my tiny nest where I had no place to stand, and thought about how disheveled I looked after a good night's sleep. I felt a little embarrassed and could only say, "I haven't washed up yet!"
This person is going too far. Can you give her some face?
Outside the thin door, Gu Shizhang chuckled softly, "I was thinking about you moving and going to work, and I was worried you wouldn't make it in time. So, how about this? I'll wait for you downstairs. Call me when you're done."
Ye Tianhui: "Oh, no need, I'll be fine soon."
At that moment, Ye Tianhui quickly dressed, packed her things, and went to wash up with her toiletries. She wiped her face and combed her hair before saying to Gu Shizhang, "Let's go. I'm ready."
Gu Shizhang smiled. She was indeed very fast: "The speed of marching and fighting."
Ye Tianhui raised an eyebrow: "Who told you to come so early?"
Gu Shizhang bent down and took the bag from her feet: "What do you want to eat?"
Ye Tianhui checked the time and said, "I want to move over quickly. Once I'm settled in, I'll have something to eat at the horse farm."
Gu Shizhang took out a bag and said with a smile, "Look, I brought some food. Let's eat together when we get to the horse farm."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay!"
At that moment, Gu Shizhang accompanied Ye Tianhui downstairs and went to the old lady's house to cancel the lease, sign, and hand over the property.
His appearance was so outstanding that even though he was only wearing simple work jeans, he still attracted many people's attention. When Gu Shizhang was helping him count the delivery, Lou Feng quietly came over to ask Ye Tianhui: "How did you find such a good man? He must be rich, right?"
Ye Tianhui: "He is very stingy."
She seemed reluctant to let him treat her to a good meal.
Lou Feng's eyes swept straight towards Gu Shizhang. He was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and long legs. The seemingly simple denim outfit he was wearing seemed to be from a top international brand. And the shoes were also very expensive, and of course there was also the watch!
She exclaimed in a low voice, "His watch must be very valuable! He's so rich!"
Ye Tianhui responded calmly: "Yeah, he said he spent several months' salary."
At this time, Gu Shizhang had already completed the transaction for her, so she went over to him and they walked out together.
Behind me, there are envious eyes.
As they walked down the street, Ye Tianhui said, "That sister just now said that you are good-looking and that you look like a rich person."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh."
Ye Tianhui: "And he said your watch is very expensive!"
Gu Shizhang sighed softly: "It sounds like you are very envious. If you like it, I will give it to you, okay?"
Ye Tianhui: "I'm just saying it!"
Having said that, the two of them grabbed their bags and boarded the bus, heading to the racecourse.
Because we arrived early, as soon as we entered the racecourse, we heard the sound of horses galloping. In the hazy morning light, we saw horses running on the track, with trainers shouting and jockeys dismounting to report.
This is a routine at the horse farm. Even if these horses are not currently participating in any horse racing competitions, daily morning exercises are still a routine, which also helps to keep these horses in good condition.
Seeing this, Ye Tianhui hurriedly said to Gu Shizhang: "Please help me put my things in that dormitory. I'll go to my stable first."
Gu Shizhang: "Where is your dormitory?"
Ye Tianhui: "It's in the stable number 17 in the third row over there."
Gu Shizhang took a look and said, "Okay."
Ye Tianhui rushed to the stables, but saw that several horses in her own stable had not yet finished their morning exercises. Jessie was there complaining in a low voice: "The horses in front are too slow, wasting a lot of time."
The morning exercise times for these racehorses are arranged in order, because several horses in their stables are retired horses with low priority, so they are naturally ranked last.
Ye Tianhui: "Then let's wait, it's still early anyway."
Jessie asked Ye Tianhui: "Didn't you move into this dormitory today?"
Ye Tianhui: "Yes, my friend came with me and helped me get it."
Jessie: "Okay, go ahead and get settled in your room. I think it'll take another half an hour, and then you can come over."
Ye Tianhui nodded in thanks and hurried to her dormitory.
The so-called dormitory is actually a saddle room converted from a stable. There are two saddle rooms, one of which is vacant and is now used as a dormitory.
When she pushed the door open, Gu Shizhang had already cleaned the saddle room and set up a temporary wooden bed next to the rack for the saddle blanket.
When he saw her come in, he smiled and said, "When it gets cold in the future, you can just pull over the saddle blanket and use it as a quilt. It's not bad at all."
Ye Tianhui took a look and was also satisfied: "You have already cleaned it!"
She thought him a dignified and particular man, but she had to admit that he was a decent worker and clearly knew his stuff at the stables.
Gu Shizhang: "Of course, I'm very familiar with this kind of work. I've slept in a saddle room before."
Having said this, he went over to check the hot water and toilet facilities next door. After the inspection, he was naturally very satisfied.
He smiled and said, "It's not bad. Although it's next to the stables and probably smells a bit of horse manure, it's much better than the little place you rented."
He didn't go in, but he probably felt that the house she rented was almost uninhabitable.
Ye Tianhui: "I think it's good too. Look at this great location, facing a green meadow with good ventilation. Although it's next to those horses, think about how valuable their racehorses are. If I sell them by the pound in two places, I won't be worth as much as them!"
So, it seems that there is nothing to feel wronged about. In fact, she is even lucky.
Gu Shizhang opened a box next to him and said, "I also brought you some daily necessities so that you can use them comfortably."
Ye Tianhui was curious and looked over, only to see brand new bath towels inside, all in sets, which looked good at first glance, as well as hand cream, face cream, shampoo, shower gel, etc.
She wondered, "Why did you buy so much for me?"
Gu Shizhang sighed softly: "You treated me to so many meals, I can't help but give back, right?"
Ye Tianhui checked it and said, "That's good too. I do have use for these."
She looked at him gratefully: "Thank you, why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"
Gu Shizhang smiled as he looked at her and said, "I'm going to England for a while, so I have to spend some money to bribe you. I want you to use the things I gave you and still think of me. Don't let me come back in two weeks and you forget who I am."
Ye Tianhui: "Look at what you said, am I so heartless?"
Gu Shizhang said, "You do."
Ye Tianhui was dissatisfied: "You!"
Gu Shizhang continued, "You are a heartless and conscienceless person."
Ye Tianhui: “…”
She felt helpless and innocent: "Do you think that since you gave me so many things, you can insult my personality at will? Gu Shizhang, I just don't want to argue with you!"
Gu Shizhang looked at her angry expression and suddenly laughed.
He smiled and said, "Okay, I won't insult your personality. Let's go and have something to eat. I brought some snacks. Let's find a place outside and eat together."
When Ye Tianhui heard about the delicious food, her anger immediately disappeared. She said excitedly, "I saw a pavilion outside. There's no one there right now. Let's go over there!"
Gu Shizhang: "Okay!"
Ye Tianhui was indeed hungry after all this trouble, so the two of them went to the back of the stable, where there was a pavilion hidden among the lush greenery. Looking from the pavilion to the racecourse over there, the winding racetrack was in full view.
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "I guess there are not many people coming here. It's quiet."
As he said that, he placed the food box on the stone table and opened it: "Take a look, do you like it?"
Ye Tianhui looked over and was surprised at first glance.
There were actually sausages and dried shrimps inside, which were not just ordinary snacks as she thought. Naturally, her appetite was aroused.
Gu Shizhang naturally saw it and handed her a small bamboo stick from the side: "Try this."
Ye Tianhui took it and picked up a piece of the sausage. It was chewy and fragrant. When she ate it carefully, it had a faint sweetness. It was not greasy at all, and even had a soft and elastic texture.
She nodded repeatedly: "Delicious, this smells so good!"
Gu Shizhang: "This is raw, sun-dried sausage. Try this, too. This is dried shrimp. Fishermen go out to sea in the early morning and catch shrimp with nets. They remove the shells and then dry them in bamboo baskets. Nowadays, many foods in Hong Kong are industrially processed, and this kind of authentic flavor is becoming less and less common."
Ye Tianhui tasted the dried shrimp. It had a slightly fishy smell, but not strong. The shrimp flavor was very strong and the taste was sweet and fresh. It was very appetizing.
Gu Shizhang opened a package box next to him. Inside was bread, which was cut into small pieces the size of a finger square and could be eaten by poking with bamboo sticks.
He also took a bamboo stick, and the two of them tasted everything. They were delicious. Ye Tianhui took a bite and wanted to take another bite. She ate it with bread and drank some water, and the taste lingered in her mouth.
At this time, the trees are lush and the bamboos are shady. The mountain breeze brings a hint of hay. The two people sit in this pavilion, looking at the scenery of the Hong Kong River in the distance, tasting the delicacies of the world, and feeling naturally comfortable.
Ye Tianhui ate a lot of everything and was finally satisfied: "What you brought is really delicious!"
Many of them were things she had never seen before, and even if there were similar ones outside, they would not taste the same.
Gu Shizhang's lips curled up slightly, and he smiled and said, "Seeing you eating so happily, my appetite has also improved."
Ye Tianhui: "People who have experienced hunger find everything delicious. I can see that you have never been hungry."
Gu Shizhang heard this and his eyes fell on her face: "What does it feel like to be hungry?"
Ye Tianhui: "This is hard to describe."
Gu Shizhang: "Why?"
Ye Tianhui sighed: "Even if I have a brilliant pen, I can't let you know the taste of what you have never experienced. If you want to know, go hungry for ten days or half a month and you will know."
Gu Shizhang listened, his expression paused, and then nodded: "That's right."
Ye Tianhui used a bamboo skewer to pick up a small piece of fermented bean curd cheesecake next to her, savoring its unique aroma. She said, "Let's not talk about these unhappy things. Aren't you going to England tomorrow?"
Gu Shizhang nodded: "Yes, tomorrow's flight."
He looked up at her and suddenly said, "Do you want to go with me?"
Ye Tianhui was surprised, thinking she had misheard: "What?"
Gu Shizhang immediately restrained his expression: "It's just a joke."
Ye Tianhui looked at him puzzledly: "I always feel like you seem reluctant to leave."
Upon hearing this, Gu Shizhang's elegant long fingers holding the bamboo sticks suddenly stopped.
Afterwards, he slowly raised his eyelids and looked at Ye Tianhui.
But she looked nonchalant.
He raised his eyebrows: "Are you kidding me when you say that?"
Ye Tianhui ate the fermented bean curd cheesecake contentedly: "I was just saying that, why are you reacting so strongly?"
Gu Shizhang was silent for a moment: "I'm just a little worried."
Ye Tianhui: "What's there to worry about?"
Gu Shizhang stopped talking.
Even though she was carefree by nature and didn't care, he couldn't bear to see her suffer any injustice.
Last night, I went back to the Gu family, which I hadn't been to for a long time. I called my nephew Gu Zhihan aside and gave him a good scolding. I saw how aggrieved and helpless he was, but he had to endure it.
Then I called the Panamanian coffee plantation.
He and Ye Lixuan were close friends. Because they loved coffee and were picky about taste, they set up a coffee plantation in Panama to grow coffee. Who would have thought that their unexpected success would lead to a great outcome. Now the coffee from the Panama plantation has won numerous awards, so they have to manage it well.
Now he was going to cause more trouble for Ye Lixuan.
Ye Tianhui naturally noticed his abnormality, and she was puzzled: "What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Gu Shizhang: "I have an assistant who will help me with the chores at home. He will stay in Hong Kong. If you encounter any problems, just call him."
Ye Tianhui: “Oh?”
Gu Shizhang said, "I've already made an agreement with him. He can help you with anything. If you want to change jobs or encounter any problems, it's all fine. You don't have to be shy with him."
Ye Tianhui understood: "Don't worry, if I encounter something I can't handle myself, I won't be polite."
Gu Shizhang took a pen and paper, wrote his phone number and name on the paper, and handed it to Ye Tianhui.
He instructed, "He can handle anything."
Ye Tianhui: "I understand!"
As she spoke, she picked up a can of soda, opened it with a "pop", and handed it to Gu Shizhang: "Here, I'll use water instead of wine to drink as a start. You should cheer up quickly and don't linger here as if you are saying goodbye!"
Gu Shizhang gently grasped the soda bottle with his slender fingers and looked up at Ye Tianhui: "Okay, let's toast."
The two of them toasted, and the soda went down their stomachs, feeling cool.
Gu Shizhang lowered his thin eyelids, hiding all his thoughts.
Including the vague worry brought about by separation, the reckless determination to get what one wants, and the greedy desire.
Ye Tianhui's father Ye Bubian once said that Ye Tianhui was a wild horse running in the wilderness. There was no rein that could restrain her, and no palace wall that could imprison her.
She is a carefree and carefree person, so how could he easily lose his composure?
So he finally calmed down and said as if he didn't care: "Then I'll leave. See you in two weeks."
*********
After seeing Gu Shizhang off, Ye Tianhui went to the stable to prepare for work. She and Jessie quickly cleaned up the stable they were responsible for and prepared to start the morning training.
Among the several horses they were responsible for, one was always listless. It had just woken up and seemed a little grumpy. When Ye Tianhui pulled its reins, it had a drooping face.
Jessie laughed and said, "I have a way to deal with it!"
Ye Tianhui: "What method?"
Jessie gave Ye Tianhui a sly smile, then took something out of her trouser pocket and fed it to the horse next to her.
Ye Tianhui raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Jessie announced the answer: "A piece of candy. Reward them with a piece of candy and they will feel better."
Ye Tianhui couldn't help laughing: "It will be discovered."
If they were discovered, it would naturally be a violation. What about the precious racehorses? The food was carefully prepared and it was not something they could decide at will.
Jessie: "Don't worry, Ma will keep this secret for us!"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Let's go."
As they were talking, the trainer and jockey finally arrived. They were responsible for leading the horses to morning exercises. After Jessie and Ye Tianhui took over smoothly, they took the opportunity to clean the stables and prepare water and food for the horses coming back from exercises. When everything was almost ready, the horses would also come back to the stables, and they would go over to meet them.
When Ye Tianhui was leading the horses back one by one according to the number plates, she happened to see a horse not far away.
She remembered the horse, Black Rose, which the Ye family bought at an auction in the UK. Black Rose was a horse of good breed and was bred by a well-known foreign horse farm. It was indeed extraordinary.
Compared with other horses in the stable, this horse looks tall, with strong limbs, a high neck and smooth fur.
However, Ye Tianhui felt that Black Rose was a little listless, very slightly, but it was obvious that it was tired after running two laps in the morning exercise.
For a racehorse in normal physical condition, such morning exercises should be very relaxing, and the horse should feel comfortable after running, but this is not the case now.
When Ye Tianhui was looking at the horse, Jessie also noticed it. He whispered, "I heard someone say privately today that this horse is not in good condition."
Ye Tianhui's heart moved. She remembered what the horse trainer and Ye Wenyin had talked about before, saying that they needed to adjust to the time difference.
But judging from the condition of this horse, it's probably not just a matter of jet lag.
She was puzzled. "What did the stable say? Did the stable over there take the horse to see the doctor?"
The racecourse is equipped with the most complete horse racing hospital in Hong Kong. It can be said that the hospital's configuration is even more advanced than that of ordinary hospitals used by humans.
Jessie looked outside. There was no one outside the stable. There were only a few horses inside the stable eating grass.
He lowered his voice and said, "But I heard the stable manager say privately, I overheard it, that this condition seems to have lasted for a day, and they are very worried. The horse gave up halfway through morning exercises today. They haven't mentioned it to the Ye family yet. I guess they want to give it a good two days of conditioning over the weekend. If it's still not better in a few days, they may have to mention it to the Ye family."
Ye Tianhui listened and roughly understood what was meant. This horse was purchased from the UK and transported to the stable here. There were no problems during the handover process. After the stable conducted a physical examination and accepted it, it needed to be responsible for the horse.
Generally speaking, if there are any minor discomforts, the stable will write them down in the horse-raising diary and give it to the horse owner. However, some occasional and fleeting problems may be ignored. After all, there is a possibility of misjudgment here.
She then asked, "I heard from others that the Ye family will come to see these horses in a couple of days, right?"
Jessie nodded. "Yes, so there won't be much time. Although Miss Ye studied this major, she actually has no practical experience. She can't see it, but in a few days, the head of the Ye family will come over, and the professional technical team of their horse service company will also come. By then, I'm afraid Black Rose's problem will be unconcealed."
Ye Tianhui raised her eyebrows slightly, recalling everything about Black Rose.
Is this an opportunity that can be exploited?
