Although Jiang Boyi was born into a noble family, he did not put on airs in front of Xiang Zhu.
During the years when Gu Qinlan returned to her grandparents' home every year, Jiang Boyi always liked to joke with Xiang Zhu, making her so angry that she would jump up and down.
As time went by, Xiang Zhu gradually grew up and could occasionally fight back against Jiang Boyi. Whenever this happened, although Jiang Boyi seemed fierce on the surface, he actually never really took it to heart.
Gu Qinlan saw that the two still maintained their childhood appearance, and her eyes were full of nostalgia, but she still said humorously:
"Cousin, you should be gentler to Xiang Zhu. These dishes were cooked by Xiang Zhu herself, so she has the right to decide how to deal with them."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Boyi's angry expression immediately changed, revealing a flattering smile, and said earnestly to Xiang Zhu:
"Oh, Xiangzhu girl, just treat it as my fault, okay? Look at you, you are young but have a bad temper. How can you find a husband in the future with this temper?"
Xiang Zhu knew it very well. She would never let Jiang Boyi fall into an embarrassing situation. She had her own standards in her heart.
At this critical moment, Xiang Zhu heard Jiang Boyi's tone become softer, so he slowly loosened his clenched hands, a bright smile bloomed on his face, and whispered:
"My dear cousin, you should eat your meal quickly. Even delicious food cannot overshadow your eloquence. I am a stubborn person and I don't plan to get married in the future. I just want to stay with our young lady for the rest of my life."
After hearing this, Jiang Boyi laughed happily, pushed the dishes in front of him, tasted a few bites, and then teased:
"Indeed, you are spoiled by my young lady. It is better for you to stay close to her to avoid putting your life in danger."
The next morning, Zheng Fenghui had rested well and came to Lunyuan with his two younger brothers and sister.
As soon as they stepped into Lunyuan, they saw Gu Qinlan sitting next to Jiang Boyi, looking at them with a smile in her eyes.
Zheng Fenghui and the other two immediately bowed respectfully to Gu Qinlan.
Then, their eyes fell on Jiang Boyi again, and they couldn't help but have many doubts in their hearts...
What exactly is this man capable of, with his casual posture and like a boneless snake?
The mother actually treated him as a VIP and asked him to guide them. Was the mother really blinded?
Of course it is!
This man must be an expert, as he could have deceived such an extremely smart mother!
Thinking of this, Zheng Fenghui and others made up their minds to expose the true face of this hypocrite!
Jiang Boyi glanced at the little guys standing upright below, raised his hand gently to greet them, and said in a lazy and casual tone:
"Are you here? I have finished reviewing the essays from last night and have reached a conclusion in my mind. In order not to disturb your minds, I have given the answers to your mother for safekeeping. I will reveal them to you when your test is over. This is fair."
Gu Qinlan sat in the first seat, smiled and nodded gently, encouraging gently:
"Since you have made an agreement with the gentleman, you should give it your all."
Zheng Fengyun immediately straightened his back, put his hands on his hips, and said proudly:
"Don't worry, mother! Our will is unshakable!"
Zheng Huiyi also nodded, and followed Zheng Fengyun's example, putting her hands on her hips and asking in a baby voice:
"So, sir, how are you going to test us?"
In this elegant and ancient courtyard, the courtyard has already been decorated in a colorful way, with various types of archery targets scattered around.
On those targets, portraits of many people were cleverly pasted, including men, women, young and old, of various appearances.
These targets were cleverly designed to be movable. The servants on both sides worked together to operate the ropes, making the targets swing back and forth in the air, adding a bit of tension and excitement to the atmosphere.
Zheng Fenghui and his companions looked at these unique targets with great interest in their eyes.
Such a novel target design made them doubt Jiang Boyi's intentions.
Only Gu Qinlan cast a glance at these portraits, a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes, and he sighed softly.
Xiang Zhu noticed the change in Gu Qinlan's expression and hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Miss, what is the intention of the young master?"
"If it was just a test of archery, Feng Yun could handle it, but my cousin is testing me for more than that."
At this point, Gu Qinlan pursed her lips slightly and whispered, "I'm afraid Feng Yun will inevitably lose."
At this moment, Jiang Boyi gently waved his folding fan, which opened with a "swish" sound, swaying leisurely, with a warm smile on his face, and slowly explained:
"Among these portraits, there are both extremely heinous criminals and unarmed civilians. Your task is to accurately identify them and shoot arrows at the criminals. Can you do it?"
Jiang Boyi's test method is undoubtedly unique. It not only tests Zheng Fengyun's archery skills, but also is a severe challenge to his insight and judgment.
Zheng Fenghui couldn't help but bow to Jiang Boyi, frowning and asking doubtfully:
"Sir, is this arrangement too harsh? My second brother is young, only five years old..."
However, before Zheng Fenghui could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jiang Boyi casually.
Jiang Boyi put away the fan, gently placed it on Zheng Fenghui's shoulder, tapped it a few times, and responded with a smile:
"How can you say I am strict? Wasn't the policy paper I asked you to write yesterday strict? Since it's a bet, do you still expect me to show mercy?"
Jiang Boyi's tone was like light smoke and mist. Although his voice was pleasant, his words revealed a hint of cunning and mischief.
Zheng Fenghui was speechless. He was usually calm and composed, but at this moment his face turned slightly red.
Seeing this, Zheng Fengyun immediately stepped forward and patted Zheng Fenghui on the shoulder, saying confidently:
"Brother, just stand aside and watch. Although I am young, I have good eyesight and can distinguish good from evil."
At this point, Zheng Fengyun raised his head, looked at Jiang Boyi with a sharp gaze, and asked with a playful smile:
"So, how do I win?"
Jiang Boyi looked at the young man in front of him. His eyes were full of confidence and unruliness. He couldn't help but smile slightly, and then slowly spoke:
"It is widely rumored that you aspire to become an outstanding general. The battlefield is unpredictable and civilians may accidentally enter the war zone. Therefore, you must be highly alert. If you shoot an innocent civilian, you lose. Is that okay?"
"Deal! Let's do it!"
Zheng Fengyun nodded without any hesitation, then tightened the dragon tongue bow in his hand and took a few steps back.
Jiang Boyi also stepped aside and said calmly:
"start."
As soon as Jiang Boyi finished speaking, Zheng Fengyun frowned, his expression serious, no longer as frivolous as before. His little hand pulled the bowstring steadily, and then released the arrow decisively!
"call out!"
The sharp arrow flew past like a gust of wind and instantly hit the target. The whole process was smooth and fast.
The servants nearby had been waiting for the opportunity, and immediately cheered loudly when they saw this:
"Shot!"
The corners of Zheng Fengyun's mouth rose slightly, revealing a hint of pride. He then raised the bow and aimed again, shooting the second arrow.
