Chapter 292 A Loud Explosion! (1/2)
Feng Xiao came walking over and saw her reading a book in the yard. His stern face then showed a loving and indulgent smile as he said: ”What book are you reading? You seem to be so engrossed in it.”
”Father.”
She closed her book and stood up as she flashed a sly smile at Feng Xiao. ”Just researching into something new.”
”Being so mysterious. Alright, Father won't probe. I came here just to see how you're doing and to tell you that the little courtyard you wanted cleared out is ready. By the way, what are you intending to use that courtyard for? Do you need me to add anything to it?”
”There's no need. It just needs to be emptied out.” Feng Jiu said with a smile and then continued on: ”I might be a little busier over the upcoming period, so I'll have to trouble Father to help me look after Sunny for me.”
”No worries about that! That child is just so obedient. I already employed someone to teach him how to read and write. I'll also teach him to practice the horse stance to build his foundation. Come on now! Let Father accompany you to go have a look at the courtyard. If there's anything you're dissatisfied with, tell me and I'll have someone take it down.”
”Alright.” Feng Jiu said with a smile, as she walked out together with Feng Xiao.
When the two of them came to some replica miniature mountains as they walked, they could hear laughter coming from afar. She raised her eyes up to look and saw the full white flabby body of Old White teasing several servant maids in play.
Seeing that scene, Feng Xiao went on to say with a laugh: ”Old White was initially locked up in the stables by the servants but it just refused to stay in there. I then asked people to release it from its tethers and allowed it to roam by itself within the manor.”
Looking at Old White who was lying on its back with its hooves up in the air as the servant girls rubbed its belly, Feng Xiao shook his head and said while laughing: ”I must say, Old White is highly intelligent. I saw that it likes to go stick itself among the servant girls but is always treating the guards with disdain, which is really strange. Even the Old Patriarch said that he has never seen a dragon horse like Old White.”
Feng Jiu glanced at Old White who laid there with its belly exposed and its hooves in the air, and she found herself rather speechless.
