Lin Xun closed his eyes and sighed: "It's so damn comfortable!"

I ran a horse race today, and then did some exercise afterwards. My body has been sore for a long time. Now, after being beaten like this, I feel extremely comfortable.

Xie Jin led Zhao Shu to lie down on the adjacent recliners. Wang Yujin looked beside the two of them, and seeing that there were no extra recliners available, he walked to the rightmost recliner with a grim expression.

When Li Yanrong saw Wang Yujin lying down on the recliner beside him, he immediately straightened up nervously, rubbed his hands and was about to say something, but he saw her close her eyes and tilt her head to one side, leaving only the back of her head facing him.

Li Yanrong closed his open mouth and lay back angrily.

The maid looked at the person on the recliner with a lustful face. She was waiting expectantly, waiting for Master Xie to order her to give him a shoulder massage. But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement at all. The maid clenched her fingers unwillingly, and then bravely put her hand on Xie Jin's arm.

As soon as her fingers lightly touched his sleeve, the man on the recliner said calmly, "Go give that girl next to you a massage."

The maid was stunned and looked at Xie Jin without reacting.

Xie Jin frowned: "Didn't you understand?"

Seeing the coldness in his eyes, the maid came back to her senses with fright. She quickly crouched down and came in front of Zhao Shu, gently patting her shoulders with her hands.

Zhao Shu looked at the maid who was feeding her grapes, then looked at the servant who was massaging her shoulders with red eyes, then looked at Xie Jin who was lying on the recliner with a calm face, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as everyone was immersed in the comfortable sunshine, someone mentioned today's horse racing. For a moment, everyone's sleepiness disappeared and everyone started discussing it.

"How about we have a roasted whole lamb tonight?"

"Sure, roast it slowly over low heat, let the oil sizzle out, sprinkle some pepper and salt on it, it will be so delicious!"

"Don't be so quick to dream. Don't forget that Prince Xie is the winner of today's horse race." The person next to him kindly reminded.

After hearing this, the excited voice suddenly died down, and the person lay back on the recliner listlessly.

After a while, Li Yanrong turned over with difficulty and faced Xie Jin: "Master Xie, what is the punishment?"

Zhao Shu looked at Xie Jin, curious about what kind of punishment he would mention.

"Thank you, Prince?"

"Why not just do a dance?"

Before everyone could react, Xie Jin continued, "We the winners are eating roasted whole lamb, and you are dancing on the side. You stop when we are done eating."

Li Yanrong opened his mouth in disbelief, looked at Lin Xun, swallowed his saliva and asked carefully: "Did I hear it wrong?"

He shook his head again: "No, this must be a dream. Dreams and reality are opposites." As he spoke, he lay back on the recliner, muttering: "On the contrary, I can eat roasted whole lamb after I wake up." After that, he fell asleep.

Lin Xun glared at him angrily. What a shame! It's just a roasted whole lamb. They have plenty of them in the Lin Mansion. I'll set up a whole lamb banquet for ten days or half a month tomorrow and eat as much as I want at once! No! Not another day! Tomorrow!

Zhao Xueying said hesitantly: "Cousin Jin, do I have to dance too?"

Xie Jin looked at her gently: "Are you from our group?"

Zhao Xueying was speechless, and then she turned her eyes and glared at Li Yanrong who was already asleep. What a shame! It's just a dance! What a big deal!
Although some were happy and some were sad after hearing about the punishment, they were only sad or happy for a moment, and then they focused on enjoying the comfort of the moment. We will talk about other things later.

The sun, carrying the young people's peaceful and relaxed faces, gradually half hid behind the mountain, and the sky turned orange.

There was a sudden rustling of people on the horse farm. The servants quickly packed up their tents and called out to Lin Xun softly, "Master, everything is ready."

Lin Xun opened his eyes, got off the recliner, clapped his hands, and shouted, "Get up, everyone, get up, we're changing positions!"

She kicked the recliner under Li Yanrong with her toes: "Let's go eat roasted whole lamb!"

When he heard that they were going to eat roasted lamb, Li Yanrong opened his eyes excitedly: "Where? Where is the roasted lamb?"

Lin Xun sneered and ignored him.

Zhao Shu squatted beside Xie Jin's recliner with her chin on her head and poked his arm with her hand: "Cousin Jin, get up and eat the roast lamb."

The fair-skinned man on the recliner curled his lips upwards and looked at her with a pair of smiling eyes: "Are you so eager to eat roast lamb?"

The smile on Zhao Shu's face froze, then she stood up, straightened her skirt, turned around and was about to follow Lin Xun and the others. Just when she had turned halfway, she turned back, took two steps to Xie Jin, kicked the recliner under him hard, and then walked away expressionlessly.

Xie Jin looked at the little girl's angry back and shook his head in amusement, then stood up and followed with big strides.

At dusk, a young man was smiling and talking to the girl beside him. The girl turned her head away in embarrassment and took two quick steps to the side, as if she wanted to stay away from the young man.

The young man followed her relentlessly, leaned over and whispered something in the girl's ear, causing the girl to look up and glare at him, then lowered her head and walked quickly.

The dusk fell behind them, leaving behind a golden glow.

Everyone followed the servant to the backyard. Although Lin Xun's backyard was not as big as his horse farm, it exuded low-key luxury everywhere.

There is a small bridge over the flowing water. On the handrails on both sides of the arch bridge, there is a one-meter-high arc-shaped hanging rope supported by silver wire. On the silver ropes on both sides are hung lotus lanterns, including twin lotus, disc-shaped, bowl-shaped, ball-shaped, and flying lotus lanterns.

The lights reflected on the bridge, complementing the phrase "lotus blossoms at every step". As soon as their feet touched the ground from the bridge, they smelled a faint aroma of meat.

Following the fragrance to an empty courtyard, I saw a servant half-kneeling beside a campfire, turning the iron handle in his hand again and again to evenly roast the mutton on the rack.

Lin Xun waved his hand to let the servant step aside, and he started roasting the meat himself.

There were twelve mahogany stools placed around the campfire, each with a different animal carved on it.

Xie Jin came and sat down on the low stool engraved with an eagle, Zhao Shu sat next to him on the low stool engraved with a lizard, and the others also found the seats they wanted and sat down.

Xu Ping closed the fan and walked to Lin Xun's side, poking his shoulder with the fan: "Hey, you're in the wrong place."

"Your seat is there." Xu Ping said, holding a fan and pointing at the outside of the stool.

Xie Jin echoed from the side: "We eat, and you dance around us."

Lin Xun paused for a moment as he was roasting the lamb, then he put down the iron handle and stood up as if nothing had happened. When he came behind Xie Jin, his calm expression suddenly became distorted and he glared at the back of his head fiercely.

Wang Mo glanced at Wang Yujin, then came to Xie Jin and bowed, "Master Xie, what dance are we going to do?"

Xie Jin glanced at him, raised his hand and called a servant over, whispered something in his ear, the servant looked at Lin Xun in embarrassment, Xie Jin leaned over to block his view, his face was gentle but his tone was dangerous: "Hmm?"

The servant nodded his head hastily and quickly retreated.

Everyone looked at this scene in confusion until a servant came in with a maid holding a pipa and a tray, and their doubts were slightly dispelled.

Is this to find an accompaniment for Lin Xun and the others?

Lin Xun looked at the servant and maid who were approaching him step by step, frowning in confusion. Why were they coming towards him?
The servant came in front of Lin Xun, looked up at him quickly with a guilty look, then immediately lowered his head and made gestures to the two maids with his hands behind his back.

After receiving the instructions, the two maids looked at each other and walked to Lin Xun in small steps: "Young Master, please, please"

Lin Xun frowned when he heard the maid talking: "Don't hesitate! Just say whatever you want to say!"

The maid lowered her head and raised the tray above her head: "Please, please wear a veil!"

Lin Xun was confused. What... veil?

Xie Jin looked at his face full of question marks and kindly explained, "You need to put cinnabar on your eyebrows and wear a veil when dancing."

Lin Xun's eyes drifted to the round box on the edge of the tray, and he looked up at the servant in front of him with a stiff expression. So, not only would he have to dance, but he would also have to wear a veil, and even shamefully put cinnabar on his forehead!
Compared to Lin Xun's reluctance, Zhao Xueying and the other girls were very satisfied with this arrangement. After all, no girl could refuse rouge and powder.

Moreover, her eyebrows are like a blooming rose, and her face is covered by a red veil, with her face half hidden and half visible. How charming and beautiful she must be.

Zhao Xueying pushed Lin Xun, who was in the way, aside and took the veil from the tray. She took out a red veil and a white veil, then picked up the round box and walked towards Wang Yujin.

Zhao Xueying held the veil in front of her and asked happily, "Yu Jin, which color do you want?"

Wang Yujin shook his head repeatedly: "I don't want it."

Zhao Xueying stuffed the white veil in her hand into hers and said, "Wear it. It will definitely look great on you!"

Wang Yujin glanced at Xie Jin across from him and said hesitantly, "Will it be troublesome when we eat later?"

"No! Just open it when you eat."

After she put on the veil, Zhao Xueying immediately opened the round box in her hand, pressed it lightly with her index finger, and then pointed the cinnabar-printed finger at Wang Yujin's forehead.

After the whole operation, a beautiful lady suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Zhao Xueying withdrew her hand with satisfaction, put on the red veil, and put a finger of cinnabar on her forehead. Just as she was done, He Zhi said anxiously: "Xueying, give me the box, we want some too."

Zhao Xueying nodded and handed the box to He Zhi and the others.

Except for Zhao Shu, the other four girls present were all smearing cinnabar and wearing veils, while Zhao Shu sat quietly watching the sizzling lamb being roasted.

After He Zhi applied cinnabar to herself and You Yurong, she handed the round box to Lin Xun: "Here, it's your turn."

Seeing that Lin Xun didn't answer it for a long time, He Zhi impatiently stuffed the box into Wang Mo's arms: "Wait!"
