Chapter 336 Cheating
Chapter 336 Cheating
The three groups took turns throwing arrows. Lu Linger's group finished first and had twenty-six arrows.
Su Yuwei, a girl from a military family, looked well-behaved, but in fact she was proficient in riding, shooting, poetry and prose. She scored all of them this time.
Lu Ling'er and the other young lady both cast eight balls.
In Hu Yingxue's group, Hu Yingxue still scored nine goals, and the other two ladies also scored eight goals, for a total of twenty-five goals.
The other two girls in Xiaocao'er's group also scored eight goals like the other girls, leaving Xiaocao'er alone. She had scored nine goals before and now has the same total as Hu Yingxue's group. If she can score the last goal, then her total will be the same as Su Yuwei's group, otherwise her total will be the same as Hu Yingxue's group.
It was the arrow that decided the outcome. When the arrow was shot from Xiao Cao'er's hand, no one dared to breathe. Until they heard a "dong" sound and the arrow entered the pot, everyone clapped and cheered.
"In, in, their group has the same number as Sister Yuwei's group."
"That means two groups have the same number of 26 sticks, and the other group has 25 sticks."
"Impossible, she just scored eight shots, how could she score all of them now?" Wang Shuyao said, pointing at Xiao Cao'er.
Hu Yingxue also looked at Xiao Cao'er in disbelief and said, "Yes, for someone who has never played pot-throwing before, it was just luck that he shot eight arrows in the first round. How could he possibly hit all of them?"
Yuexi looked at the two of them, gave them a disdainful look and said, "Humph, in front of everyone, do you think my girl can cheat?"
"This is clearly cheating! Otherwise, how could all ten arrows hit the target?" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted.
Hearing this, Su Yuwei frowned slightly, turned to look at the person who spoke, and asked slowly: "Do you have any evidence? It's not good to speak without evidence."
At this time, Lu Ling'er on the side also echoed and said: "Yes, everyone watched it with their own eyes. The arrow was shot from Sister Xiao Cao'er's hand. Tell me, how did she cheat?"
However, facing everyone's doubts, Hu Yingxue seemed a little exasperated. Her face flushed and she shouted loudly: "If I say it is cheating, it is cheating. Why are you talking so much nonsense!" She looked like a dead pig that is not afraid of boiling water and a broken jar that is thrown away.
Just when the situation was at a stalemate, the young lady from Duke Liu's mansion came out gracefully, with a proper smile on her face, and whispered softly to smooth things over: "Sister Yingxue, since this game is over, let's go inside and have a cup of tea together. Everyone has been standing here for a long time, and I'm sure everyone must be thirsty."
As he said this, he reached out and gently pulled Hu Yingxue's sleeve, signaling her not to continue pestering him.
But Hu Yingxue didn't appreciate it. She snorted coldly: "Hmph, what water do you want to drink? This matter won't end so easily!"
This time, even the host family was not given any face. Miss Liu was helpless when she saw this, so she had to quickly order the servants to go to the front to inform the elders.
At this time, Miaoyin couldn't help but ask, "Who can cheat in front of everyone? Isn't it possible that my girl scored twice with luck and her own strength?"
You know, even though the two of them only started following their girl today, they already knew all about the girl's situation clearly.
It is said that their daughter is very agile and has extraordinary martial arts skills. Ting Yun said that although the daughter has not yet possessed internal strength, in terms of her boxing and kicking skills, even if the two of them joined forces, they might not be able to defeat the daughter.
It was just a small game of pitching a pot, which was a piece of cake for the girl.
However, Hu Yingxue became even more furious when she heard this. Her face flushed as she angrily shouted, "Humph, you two ignorant slaves, how dare you be so rude to me? Come on, slap them hard!"
Obviously, she knew that she couldn't do anything to that country girl, so she planned to vent her anger on the two maids, Yuexi and Miaoyin.
In the blink of an eye, Hu Yingxue's personal maid immediately walked towards where Yuexi and Miaoyin were with a menacing look on her face.
Xiaocao'er was originally standing in front of Xixi and Miaoyin. When Yuexi saw Hu Yingxue's maid coming over, she pulled Xiaocao'er behind her, and she and Miaoyin protected Xiaocao'er in the middle, one in front and one behind.
"Stop, stop, stop, it's wrong to fight." Xiao Caoer said behind Yuexi. "We are all in Beijing and see each other from time to time. It won't look good if we really fight."
Seeing this, Hu Yingxue shouted, "Whoever wants to meet you, slap them in the face. If anyone dares to stop me, slap her too."
"Stop." A group of ladies came hurriedly.
The one walking in front was Lu. Just now, she heard a servant from Duke Liu's mansion come in to report that the young ladies outside were quarreling.
She was afraid of hurting Xiaocao'er, so she told her mother-in-law and ran over immediately. Fortunately, she arrived in time, otherwise, it looked like Xiaocao'er would really be hurt.
