There were not many people playing hut today, people were attracted by other activities.
Before Yu Shuyue came, there were only Zhao Mengcun and Mr. Li, a son of a well-known family in the capital, who was the only one here who was throwing the pot.
"Brother Zhao, this lady is the daughter of the general who governs the country."
After the New Year's Eve banquet, among the children of the aristocratic families in the capital, who wouldn't know the daughter of the Yu family who raised a tall and mighty beast?
"So what? I won't intentionally show humility to her just because she is a woman, and of course I won't deliberately lose to her just because she is the daughter of a general."
Zhao Mengcun thought his friend was reminding him not to offend the general's daughter.
"Hey, it's not——"
"Okay, stop talking and let's get started."
Zhao Mengcun couldn't wait to show his manly side to Yu Shuyue, so he interrupted his friend's words.
The scene of one woman and two men throwing pots here attracted the attention of many people, and the ladies who were throwing pots on the side paused their actions and looked at them curiously.
Si She saw that they were really competing and there were more and more people watching, so he started to announce the rules with arrows in hand.
"You must put the head of the Yachi into the pot for it to be valid; if the tail of the Yachi enters the pot first, it will be invalid."
"Is this Miss Yu please first?"
After Zhao Mengcun listened to the rules, he made a gesture of invitation to her with confidence on his face.
Yu Shuyue was not polite to him. She took an arrow from Si She, squinted her eyes and calculated the approximate distance, then raised the arrow in her hand and threw it out.
Zhao Mengcun didn't expect her movements to be so casual. He had already predicted that the arrow would definitely miss. He followed the direction of the arrow with a smile on his face. Just when he was about to speak to comfort Yu Shuyue, his eyes widened.
I saw that the arrow drew a beautiful arc and was thrown steadily into the pot as big as the mouth of a bowl.
"It's your turn, young master."
There were cheers from the crowd of onlookers. Yu Shuyue looked away and turned her body to the side to make room for the two of them.
Zhao Mengcun was still in a state of surprise. He didn't react until he heard the applause and cheers from the people around him. He looked at Yu Shuyue, who looked relaxed and smiling, and swallowed nervously unconsciously.
It must be a coincidence, she must be lucky.
After comforting himself in his mind, he took the arrow from Si She's hand and stared closely at the pot three feet away. His body was tense and he was very focused and did not dare to be distracted.
Finally, he threw his hand forward with all his strength, and the arrow in his hand flew forward along an arc.
When he saw the arrow falling steadily into the pot, Zhao Mengcun couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. When the arrow entered the pot, he finally had a smile on his face.
He has been playing hut for ten years, but today was a particularly nervous and stressful time for him.
"Brother Li is here."
Feeling relaxed, he smiled and invited his friends to come forward, while he himself stepped aside, paying special attention to Yu Shuyue's expression from the corner of his eye.
Mr. Li originally just regarded this as an entertainment project to kill time, and didn't care much whether he invested in it or not. But at this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him, which inexplicably put great pressure on him, and he couldn't help it.
Got nervous.
But he was originally a weak scholar, and because he was too nervous at the moment, the arrow he threw was still ten feet away from the pot.
The onlookers couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"If you have the ability, do it yourself."
Zhao Mengcun's shot was normal, but there was a woman in front who also made the shot. His arrow was still ten feet away from the pot, which was indeed a bit embarrassing.
The onlookers had clear reactions, and it was no wonder that he became angry.
"It's Miss Yu's turn."
It was also expected by Zhao Mengcun that his friend failed to advance. What he was more concerned about now was whether Yu Shuyue could also make the second arrow.
Yu Shuyue picked up the arrow in the same manner as before. She just squinted her eyes slightly to check the distance, then adjusted the angle of her hand and threw it very easily. The whole process was very fast, clean and neat, without any sloppiness.
This time, Zhao Mengcun stared intently at the arrow she threw. He didn't dare to underestimate her because of her casualness.
His nervous palms began to sweat. Not only him, but also the people around him were holding their breath and following the arrow with their eyes.
Unsurprisingly, Yachi safely put it into the pot again.
Zhao Mengchen picked up his second arrow amidst people's applause for Yu Shuyue.
This time he was much more nervous than the first time.
If he didn't make the shot this time, the outcome would have been sealed.
Zhao Mengcun's palms were all sweaty, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead. It was obviously just an entertainment event, but because of his prejudiced words at the beginning, he was facing so much pressure at the moment.
Maybe it was because he was so nervous that he got distracted at the last moment. When the arrow was thrown, he knew that the arrow had unsurprisingly deviated from the mouth of the pot and finally fell on the ground.
.
When the arrow hit the ground, he was suddenly discouraged and no longer as confident as before.
Mr. Li didn't make the shot as usual this time, but the arrow came closer to the pot.
Now comes the final shot.
When Yu Shuyue was about to throw an arrow again, Zhao Mengcun braced himself and stared at her intently.
After all, if her team also enters, then there is no doubt that she will win.
Yu Shuyue's last arrow finally lived up to expectations and landed safely in the mouth of the pot again.
How proud Zhao Mengcun was before the start, how embarrassed he is now.
Probably because he was too impatient, he failed to hit the last arrow.
"Why didn't you say Miss Yu was so powerful before?"
He couldn't help but angrily asked his friend beside him if losing to a woman was not a very shameful thing.
The key is that there were so many people watching, and he only shot one arrow in front of everyone, while Yu Shuyue, a woman, hit all three arrows. Where did he put his face?
"I was about to say something just now, but I was interrupted by Brother Zhao."
Mr. Li only felt that he had been wronged.
"Brother Zhao, you don't know that Miss Yu has raised an extremely tall and powerful lion. The lion can stand up to two feet tall, and yet such a ferocious beast behaves so well beside her.
A kitten."
Of course, the Yuanyuan is not two feet tall when standing upright. People in the capital looked at it and felt fear in their hearts, so they subconsciously exaggerated it even more.
"What! She, a woman, can actually tame a beast?"
Because Zhao Mengcun was too surprised and skeptical about his friend's words, his voice became louder unconsciously.
Now, everyone who had not dispersed heard this, and everyone looked at Yu Shuyue in surprise and admiration.
Of course, some people don't believe it and have doubts in their eyes.
But soon someone from the capital came to tell the story for those who didn’t know.
"What? Isn't it possible?"
As soon as Zhao Mengcun finished speaking, a deep voice suddenly came out among the noise.
Everyone's eyes were attracted to the speaker.
I saw Hua An pushing Qi Xiuyao's wheelchair and Yu Hengyue walked through the crowd and walked to Yu Shuyue's side. This chapter has been completed!
