Fourteen looked at Young Master Du carefully and thought that, judging from appearance alone, Young Master Du and Hei Bao were quite a good match. If their character was also good, it would be a good marriage.
When Gou Dan visited General Wang and his men, it was just a cursory glance. It wasn't until he met General Du that he truly delved into the grassroots, gained a real understanding of every aspect of the army, and began to lead troops.
Young Master Du, Hei Bao, Shi Si, and Gou Dan and Gou Dan's companions are all about the same age.
Soon, Young Master Du and Gou Dan became familiar with each other.
After they got to know each other, Young Master Du started moving closer to Hei Bao.
Hei Bao was bathing her horse when Young Master Du walked over. "Bathing the horse? I'll help you fetch the water."
"Okay. Are you done with your work?"
"Hmm. Did you raise this horse from a puppy?"
"Yes. Your horse was raised by you when it was a puppy, right?"
"Yes. My father made me bathe it as soon as it was born. You did too, right?"
"Yes. You only have one?"
"Three. And you? How many do you raise?"
"I raised six horses."
"Six horses?!" Young Master Du was somewhat surprised. "Can you manage to raise them?"
“I can manage to raise him; I’ve always been very active since I was a child.”
"How many horses did you bring with you this time?"
"Three horses. Those two were also raised by me."
"You're really something. Shouldn't those two horses take a bath too?"
"Um."
"Then I'll go get some more water."
"good."
No sooner had Young Master Du left than Fourteen appeared. "What did you think of Young Master Du?"
"That's great. Where did you go just now? I wanted you to fetch water for me, but I couldn't find you."
Fourteen wanted to say, "Isn't this just creating an opportunity for Young Master Du?", but then felt it wasn't the right time. "I'm going to watch the soldiers' martial arts competition. Where's Xiaoyun?"
"I went into the mountains with my master to collect herbs."
Just as Hei Bao finished speaking, Young Master Du returned carrying two buckets of water. "Fourteen, you're here?"
"Hmm." Fourteen teased Young Master Du. "Young Master Du, why didn't you help me fetch water when I was bathing the horse?"
Young Master Du put the water on the ground. "You're a boy, after all."
Fourteen Dynasty Black Treasure looked over. "He looks down on you."
Hei Bao scooped up a spoonful of water and poured it onto the horse's back. "Stop trying to sow discord. Go and bring out my two horses too."
"Hahaha... Let's have a horse race later."
Young Master Du: "Okay."
Hei Bao: "You can't win again."
Fourteen: "I'll still like it even if I can't win."
Hei Bao: "You and my aunt are really siblings." Her aunt likes playing chess, and Shi Si likes horse racing. (www.cascoo.net)
Fourteen had long since accepted the fact that Sisi was his biological sister. "Of course."
When Master Xuanzhen and the little fox returned from gathering herbs, they saw Hei Bao, Fourteen, and Young Master Du racing horses.
Sometimes Hei Bao was half a horse's length faster than the other, and sometimes the other was half a horse's length faster than Hei Bao.
Fourteen chased after him, shouting, "Young Master Du, why don't you give way to Hei Bao? Hei Bao is a girl."
Young Master Du said as he ran, "Hei Bao doesn't like me giving in to her, right, Hei Bao?"
Hei Bao grunted and turned to look at Yun Shisi, saying, "Yun Shisi, you want us to go easy on you, right?"
Fourteen: "Why are you turning around? Don't be careless just because you're a good rider."
Hei Bao turned back. "Young Master Du, your riding skills are quite good."
"Your riding skills are also very good."
"Then let's have a good competition. If I win, you treat me to dinner; if you win, I treat you to dinner."
"good."
Fourteen: "Hey, what about me?"
Hei Bao: "You're the one who gets the prize; whoever wins, it's yours."
Young Master Du: "Yes, you're the one who's helping out."
Fourteen: "You two bad guys, I'm the youngest, you have to give way to me."
Black Treasure/Young Master Du: "Hahahaha... I won't allow it!"
Master Xuanzhen stroked his beard. Young people are just full of energy.
The little fox caught up with Blackie and jumped onto Blackie's shoulder. "Woo woo woo..." Charge!
In the end, Blackie won the match by a narrow margin.
Young Master Du took Hei Bao, Fourteen, and Little Fox to a famous local restaurant for a delicious meal.
After Shisi and Heibao finished eating and found it delicious, they both called out at the same time, "Waiter!"
The innkeeper knew that Fourteen and his companions were distinguished guests, so he specially sent a waiter to wait at the door.
Just as Fourteen and Hei Bao finished calling out, the waiter pushed the door open and came in. "Young master, young lady, what can I do for you?"
Fourteen and Black Treasure said at the same time, "Go and call your manager here."
"Yes, sir, I'll go right away."
After the waiter left, Young Master Du couldn't help but say, "You two are really in sync."
Hei Bao and Shi Si: "Of course, I knew him/her as soon as he was born / I knew him/her as soon as I was born."
Young Master Du was amused by Hei Bao and Fourteen. "Hahaha... What do you want with the shopkeeper?"
Fourteen: "His family's food is quite unique. I'd like to ask if he would be willing to send his chef to the military camp to cook a meal for my nephew?"
Upon hearing this, Young Master Du immediately said, "He'd definitely be willing. This is a great opportunity to make a name for himself. Hei Bao, do you also want them to cook for the eldest prince?"
Hei Bao nodded. Gou Dan was too busy to come out. Besides, Gou Dan couldn't just eat whatever he wanted when he was out. So, the best solution was to invite the cook to the military camp and have him cook there.
That evening, while Master Xuanzhen was meditating, Fourteenth Master walked in carrying a plate of delicious food. "Master, we found some good food outside today. Please try some."
"Good." Master Xuanzhen washed his hands and tasted two bites. "It's really good."
"Right? Master, what do you think of Young Master Du?"
"fine."
"If he wants to marry Hei Bao, would you be willing? I'd like to match them up."
"Cough cough cough!" Master Xuanzhen nearly choked to death. "What did you just say?"
Fourteen blinked. Was there any need for such surprise? Wasn't Hei Bao about to get engaged? "I said I wanted to pair Young Master Du with Hei Bao."
"..." How did he end up with such a foolish disciple? "Fourteen, how about I expel you from the sect?"
Fourteen served Master Xuanzhen a bowl of soup. "Master, you really love to joke. Master, we must marry Hei Bao off before Young Master Du discovers Hei Bao's true colors."
Master Xuanzhen glared at Fourteen. "You can leave now. I need some peace and quiet."
"Alright. Master, I know you're reluctant to part with Hei Bao, but girls always have to get married when they grow up."
"I understand." I really want to expel this silly boy from the sect.
After finishing its meal, the little fox played with Blackie for a while and then came back. As soon as it returned, it saw Master Xuanzhen staring straight at it.
The little fox turned and ran away.
Master Xuanzhen grabbed the little fox's tail.
The little fox stopped, feeling dejected. "Waaaaah..." "Tell me, what do you want me to do?" "Let me tell you, I'm a fox under the imperial court now. I won't do murder or arson."
