Chapter 41: Luck

Xiaobaihe is located in the southern suburbs of Baihe Town. The warm shed on the bank was set up the day before when Ren’s carriage arrived. Ren’s family has also sent people to erect countless betting chess pieces on the river to enclose a vast space. Isolate idle people and others.
When Ren Yaoqi and other female relatives got out of the carriage, they saw a lot of people watching the excitement. There are also some half-year-old children dragging wooden flat-bottomed carts with thick hemp rope to run back and forth on the unenclosed ice surface, or whistling back and forth wearing homemade skates, laughing loudly.
The housekeeper of Ren's family thought they were too noisy, and sent Jiading away several times, but as soon as they left other children and ran back, they couldn't be driven away. In the end, it was Ren Yiyan, the eldest master of the Ren family, who said that he was going out for fun today, and that it was better to be lively.
Except for the fifth master Ren Shimao and the fifth wife Lin, the rest are juniors of the Ren family. Before everyone went out, the fifth master and his wife said that they had to do something first, and they were not on the same road, so for the time being, the young master Ren Yiyan and the young grandmother Zhao were in charge.
Ren Yaoqi and all the sisters of the Ren family followed Zhao to the warming shed, and as soon as they were seated, they saw another group of people walking in. It was the Han family who didn't go out easily.
Ren Yaoqi looked outside, and he saw Han Yunqian, the young master of the Han family, and Ren Yiyan, Qiu Yun and the others were talking and laughing while walking towards here.
"Huh? This is?" Ren Yaoting, the seventh lady of the East Mansion, looked at Ms. Han Jia who was walking towards them and asked suspiciously. She had never seen Han You before.
Ren Yaoyin smiled and said: "This is Miss Han's family. Her brother and third cousin are classmates of Yunyang Academy, so cousin sent a post to Han's family."
Han You smiled and came forward to see the ceremony, the youngest grandmother Zhao arranged her to sit down beside Ren Yaoyin and Ren Yaoqi.
"That day, when my cousin and eldest brother discussed that they wanted to send a post to the Han family, I was worried that you would not be able to come. Fortunately, you are here." Ren Yaoyin smiled friendly towards Han You.
Han You looked around with bright eyes, and when she heard Ren Yaoyin's words, she whispered shyly: "I received your post last month, my mother, she just happened to be ill, so...this time it's my mother and My brother told grandmother, I can come."
Some of Han You's explanation was not followed by the preface, but they had heard Han You mentioned the situation of the Han family before, so they knew what was going on in their hearts and couldn't help but sympathize with her a little more.
Although Han You is a little shy because he rarely goes out, he is gentle and courteous, so several of the Ren family sisters did not reject her after contacting her.
Everyone was sitting drinking tea and eating snacks, but the outside game hadn't started. The youngest grandmother Zhao explained that he would wait for the fifth master and fifth wife to come.
After waiting for a long time, the eldest young master Ren Yiyan sent someone back outside to find the fifth master and the Lin family, and at the same time announced the start of the game here.
At this time, Yun Wenfang, Han Yunqian, Qiu Yun, and Ren Yijian, the fifth young master of the Ren family, came out wearing single clothes, and several women were putting leggings and ice shoes on their legs.
The ice shoes are made of iron and are strapped to the feet.
"Fifth brother, are they going to play?" The youngest grandmother, Zhao Shi, was taken aback and looked at Sister Ren, obviously she didn't know before.
The Ren family sisters all looked at each other, but Miss Han family said: "On the road, I heard Master Qiu and his brother say that each of them brought a team of family members."
Sure enough, everyone saw four different colored belts tied to their waists.
Several young masters of the Ren family had also played this before, but never played the game personally. It's just watching the excitement.
Zhao clan was a little anxious when he heard the words, the fifth wife and the fifth master did not come, here is her and the eldest master. She was very afraid that if something happened, she would not be able to explain to Mrs. Ren and Mrs. So she hurriedly got up and went to discuss with the young master Ren Yiyan.
Ren Yaoyu curled her lips and complained: "Sister-in-law is just timid and dare not call the shots of anything. If my mother is present, there will be no trouble."
Ren Yaoyin frowned, and softly defended his sister-in-law: "My sister-in-law is also worried about their cousin's safety. I heard that someone broke their neck because of the ice sport competition last year."
The eldest grandmother, Zhao, was also from a distinguished family, with gentle temperament and conformity. On the second day of their wedding, she and the eldest master Ren Yiyan offered tea to the elders of the Ren family. Because it was raining outside and the road was slippery, Ren Yiyan inadvertently helped her in front of everyone on the steps, and she was ashamed to almost follow her. I fell down on the steps and blushed for a whole day. I was embarrassed to leave the room for half a month.
The Zhao family has been married for two years, and there has been no stomach movement, making her more cautious in Ren's family. Fortunately, Ren Yiyan is mild-tempered, and the husband and wife have always been in harmony.
After a while, Zhao came back in a little frustration, and obviously several young masters over there refused to listen to persuade to play.
Ren Yijian also wore his outfit and ran over and winked and arched his hands: "Sisters-in-law, sisters and sisters, I must look for my red girdle when I give the lottery in a while! They are all generous. Only I will be there."
Said that Ren Yijian triumphantly turned around in front of everyone, letting everyone see clearly the red belt he tied around his waist.
Qiu Yun laughed at him on the sidelines: "It's better to be inferior to your skills. According to your practice, most of the people sitting here today are Ren's family."
Everyone couldn't help but laughed, and any key blushed, making a grimace and ran away.
Qiu Yun blinked and said, "Should we also learn from that kid to climb up and build relationships? Otherwise, what if no one will support you later?"
Yun Wen took a look in the direction of the female relatives, turned his gaze on Ren Yaoqi's body for a while, and twitched the corners of his mouth jokingly: "Okay, if you lose, you still have to cry like him?"
Qiu Yun "pushed" a smile, remembering that he had been joking about Ren Yijian's loss to him in chess when he was a child, crying and playing tricks.
There was a gong knocking outside. This is the beginning of the game. Several people walked out. There are already four teams on the ice, each with eight people.
The first is "grab and wait", this game is not divided into teams. After the drum beats three times, everyone wears skates and gallops back and forth on the river, and the one who arrives first wins.
The people in the warm shed couldn't sit still when they heard the cheers outside, and flocked to the entrance of the shed to watch. There are no elders present today, and even the Zhao clan is much more relaxed, being dragged by Ren Yaoyuqiang.
Seeing Han You also wanted to see, Ren Yaoyin took the initiative to invite her together. The two asked Ren Yaoqi if he wanted to look outside. Ren Yaoqi shook his head: "You go first, I'll sit down for a while."
Seeing that Ren Yaohua did not leave, Ren Yaoqi smiled and asked, "Sister Sister, don’t you go and see? The butler has already sent a lot of strong men from the mine to surround the house, and there are still many women outside the warm shed. Not coming."
Ren Yaohua didn't get along well on weekdays, and the Ren family sisters went out in twos and threes and no one greeted her.
Ren Yaohua didn't know what he was thinking, and looked up after hearing this. Before I could reply, I heard a sound of drums and gongs ringing outside, and then several maids each held a basket back and forth looking for everyone to beg for prizes. They wear red, yellow, blue, and blue belts on their waists, representing the team of the four young masters.
Under the leadership of Ren Yiyan and Zhao's, everyone unwrapped to join in.
Ren Yaoqi turned his head and said to Sydney: "Give a dime to the little maid with a red belt." Then he asked Ren Yaohua, "Where is the third sister? Who do you want to choose?"
Ren Yaohua instructed her maid, Turnip, "For the red belt of the fifth brother."
Sydney and Turnip went happily.
Seeing that the other two maids behind him were poking their heads, Ren Yaoqi smiled and said, "You go too. There are parsley and others here." The maids and women can also give some prizes, just as a beggar. Auspicious.
Xiangqin was Ren Yaohua's maid, but the few maids around Ren Yaoqi were very playful, and they retired happily after hearing this.
"You are too indulging in them!" Ren Yaohua frowned as he couldn't see it.
Ren Yaoqi smiled. The maids around her were those given by Aunt Fang for the time being, and they were more off-tempered, and they would mostly be replaced in the future.
At this time, a maid wearing a cyan belt came here, holding the basket in her hand and saluting it upright, looking at Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua, and then looking at Ren Yaoqi with a smile and said: "The slave is Come to ask Mr. Wen for the prize."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned, who to give the prize and how much to give is voluntary, so why is there still an initiative to ask for it?
Ren Yaohua on the side glanced at the maid, then frowned at Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi smiled: "The maids around me have all gone to see the excitement, and I will send them to you in the next one. Which yard are you from? Why haven't I seen it before?"
The maid pursed her lips and said with a smile: "My old lady sent the slave to serve the son of my family, not from Renfu, so Miss Fifth did not recognize the slave."
After thinking about it, the maid said again: "Caitou is just asking for auspiciousness. It is not limited to money. The same is true for Miss Fifth to others..."
Before she could finish her words, Ren Yaohua said with a calm face: "Even if you are not our Ren family's maid, haven't the mansion taught you the rules? The master uses you to make suggestions!"
