Chapter 161: Busy supporting the family in the foreign land
The racecourse was packed tonight, with people from all walks of life coming in droves after hearing the news.
The ticket price increased from five yuan to fifty yuan, but there is still a shortage of supply.
It seemed as if the whole city was affected by this game.
Lu Pingsheng found Wei Miao in the stable. Looking at the little boy who had changed his clothes, Lu Pingsheng's heart finally settled.
"Brother Lu, we're rich." Wei Miao said to Lu Pingsheng with a smile while riding on a black horse.
Uncle Zeng Bao looked at the originally fierce Black Wind, who became obedient in the hands of the little boy, and suppressed his surprise.
This horse was bought for him by his father from abroad. It has a wild temperament and no one can tame it.
But he saw with his own eyes that Heifeng, who was neighing with his horse's hooves just a second ago, became as obedient as a big dog when the kid clumsily climbed onto his back.
Master Zhishang is right, as long as there are people like him who are so smart that they are almost like wits, there will be other people with special abilities.
If the time and place are right, and he meets someone who makes him feel comfortable, then that person must be the one who will ruin his life.
Lu Pingsheng looked at the little boy with dimples, and he couldn't describe the feeling in his heart.
He felt that the brat was getting bolder. He caught a glimpse of Uncle Zeng Bao looking at Wei Miao with a chuckle, and felt that the cabbages he raised were about to be taken away by someone with ulterior motives.
It's always complicated.
"When did you learn to ride a horse?" Lu Pingsheng asked.
Wei Miao asked as a matter of course: "Do I still need to learn this?"
Wei Miao grabbed the reins and reached out to touch Heifeng's ears. It rubbed against Wei Miao's palm like a big dog.
Lu Pingsheng felt that this scene was very familiar, exactly the same as every time Ali acted coquettishly with Wei Miao.
"This horse is quite docile." Lu Pingsheng said to Uncle Zeng Bao with satisfaction.
No matter what this man's purpose was, he dared to use such a big method to tie up A Miao. At least at this moment, Lu Pingsheng's anger towards him was a little less.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the good-tempered Heifeng raised his foot and kicked the groom who was holding the rope, knocking him backwards.
The incident happened suddenly and Wei Miao was caught off guard, and he followed the horse's body. If he hadn't grabbed the reins, he would have probably fallen off.
Zeng Baoyi and Lu Shaojie next to them almost laughed out loud.
They thought they were already crazy, but they didn't expect Uncle Zeng Bao to be even crazier.
Let a kid participate in the competition as a knight.
"Old Nine, how about you quit now? I only want half of your money?" Zeng Baoyi had a handsome face, but his eyes were severely bruised, and he looked like a man who indulged in pleasure.
Lu Shaojie didn't want to offend Uncle Zeng Bao, a smart man, so he said:
"Uncle Bao, it hasn't started yet anyway. If you quit now, I won't have anything."
Lu Shaojie was born into a warlord family. Although he appeared to be a playboy on the surface, he actually cared more than Zeng Baoyi, who was also a playboy.
Uncle Zeng Bao shook his head and said calmly: "It doesn't matter. Money is something outside of my body. A thousand gold coins can't buy my happiness."
These words made both the number one prodigal and the number one playboy lose the upper hand.
Looking at the two people with ugly expressions, Lu Pingsheng's mouth twitched again and again. It seemed that this Mr. Zeng Jiujiu was very kind to them on weekdays.
Wei Miao patted the black-haired creature's neck, and it miraculously calmed down.
Lu Pingsheng and Zeng Baoshu had different thoughts in their minds.
Lu Pingsheng thought: Can this boy A Miao really tam beasts?
Uncle Zeng Bao thought: Is this the spiritual person that Master Zhishang talked about?
At this time, George Guo came over and said politely to the gods of wealth:
"The race will start in fifteen minutes, and we're also taking bets at the racecourse. Do you want to place a bet?"
Wei Miao's eyes flickered towards Lu Pingsheng.
Lu Pingsheng understood what the little devil meant today. She spread her hands and said:
"There are still fifteen minutes left. It's too late."
Wei Miao felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier that she could also place bets, she would have used the box of gold in her secret room for betting.
Lu Pingsheng said: "Don't be too greedy!"
Wei Miaocai disagreed. How could she be greedy? If she was really greedy, she would have gone to find a gold mine and lay down there long ago. Why would she have to work so hard to make money while enjoying the worldly pleasures?
Wei Miao drove the horse to the track, and Zeng Baoyi and the others returned to the box on the top floor.
The view here is wide and you can see the situation below at a glance, even the odds of the three horses on the tall rack are clearly visible.
"Old Nine, you should really let your father see what you look like now, so that he can know who the real playboy is."
Zeng Baoyi sat crookedly, with a hint of nobility in his cynicism.
Lu Shaojie, who was sitting next to him, had the same expression on his face as Zeng Baoyi.
He didn't expect that Zeng Baoyi would join in the fun and actually let the half-grown children around him take to the stage.
Uncle Zeng Bao picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea and said:
"Before I came here, Master Zhishang read my fortune and said that I would have good fortune today. Today is almost over, so I guess my fortune should be here."
This one sentence made both of them laugh out loud.
The two of them walked out of the box arm in arm, not wanting to communicate with this person who didn't fit in.
It's both pretending and tiring.
After the people left, Lu Pingsheng looked at Uncle Zeng Bao, his dark eyes deep and he said:
"No matter what you want, if you hurt Ah Miao, even though I am insignificant, I will never let you get what you want."
Uncle Zeng Bao looked at him, with unknown emotions rolling in his eyes, "Isn't Mr. Lu also using her?"
Lu Pingsheng looked embarrassed, "Ah Miao and I are different."
Uncle Zeng Bao sneered, his eyes seemed to see through everything, and he said clearly:
"Of course it's different. You showed up when she was in trouble, so she has a pure heart and naturally treats you differently."
Lu Pingsheng said nothing.
He would never tell the secret between himself and A Miao to this man in front of him who had a mind as cunning as a sieve.
He had noticed Ah Miao's trust and closeness to him a long time ago. At first he thought it was a child's attachment, but later he found that Ah Miao seemed to support what he did.
Perhaps, they all care about the common people and share the same moral principles!
As the starting gun sounded, both of them turned their eyes away from each other and looked towards the racecourse below.
The rules of the competition are very simple. Whoever finishes two kilometers first and reaches the finish line wins.
Wei Miao rode on Heifeng, feeling the wind brought by the speed.
It made her unconsciously return to her previous life when she was a lion king, running wildly on the grassland.
She had the honor of leading a pride of lions to hunt a herd of wild horses.
When the horses were running wildly, they were extremely fast, but under her command, the surrounded horses fled in panic and some of them always stumbled.
As long as a horse falls, the lurking lions will swarm in, and the hunt will be completed in the blink of an eye.
Wei Miao held the reins, bent down to reduce resistance, and moved up and down with the horse's bumps.
Suddenly, I felt a flash of light before my eyes and a gust of wind hit my ears.
The smell of gunpowder?
Are there snipers?
