The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

Hearing Xiao Anning's words, Su Lun's heart could not help but ripple. You know, in this era, book collections are very precious wealth, and many rare books are priceless treasures that are difficult to buy even with a lot of money. At this moment, facing this kind of heart, Su Lun's face was full of gratitude: "Thank you for the generous gift, Miss Second. Su will definitely cherish these books and study them carefully. I will never let down the good intentions of the General's Mansion. After reading them, I will definitely return them intact..."

"You're welcome! Actually, these books were carefully selected by my sister. Let me tell you in secret, my sister is really amazing. She has read most of the books in the library..." Xiao Anning said with a beaming smile.

Hearing this, Su Lun was even more surprised, but he did not show it, and just chatted with Xiao An Ning for a few more words. Then, Xiao An Ning asked with joy and a little expectation: "Captain Su, I wonder if I can go and see the martial arts training ground you just mentioned?"

Su Lun was slightly startled, then came to his senses and replied with a smile: "Of course, Miss Xiao Er, please follow me." After that, he took the lead and walked forward.

Arriving at the martial arts training ground, Xiao An Ning couldn't help but widen her eyes, her face full of surprise. She saw all kinds of strange things placed on the martial arts training ground. Except for a few arrow targets and plum blossom piles that she was familiar with, she had never seen the other strange objects before.

"Captain Su, what are these used for?" Xiao An Ning couldn't help but ask.

Su Lun smiled and explained: "These are all equipment used for physical exercise. How about I show you how to use them?"

Xiao Anning was actually full of curiosity, but when he thought of what Su Lun had just said that the formal training would take another two days, he shook his head without hesitation and said, "Forget it, I'll ask you for advice later. Oh, by the way, I see there are so many targets here, are you practicing archery skills?"

Hearing this, Su Lun showed a hint of shyness on his face. He subconsciously touched his nose and replied somewhat embarrassedly: "Alas, I am ashamed to say that if my riding and archery skills were not so poor, the journey of escorting His Royal Highness back to the capital last time would not have been so thrilling. Now that I have this opportunity, I will naturally learn it well. After all, hard work can make up for lack of talent."

Xiao An Ning widened his eyes in surprise: "How can you think so? You have only started practicing martial arts for two months, but you are already much better than most people! It's not your fault because you didn't have the right opportunity to practice before! Have you seen the Crown Prince's archery skills? Super amazing, right? That was taught by my father personally! How about this, I will go back and discuss with my father and ask him to accept you as his apprentice?" Xiao An Ning became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he had already seen a bright future.

Hearing this, Su Lun couldn't help but feel awkward and embarrassed, and even a few beads of sweat appeared on his forehead: "The general is busy with all kinds of things, how can I have the nerve to trouble him with such a small matter..."

However, Xiao An Ning pouted her lips and retorted: "Cultivating outstanding talents is not a trivial matter! My father has always cherished talented people..." As she spoke, she nodded thoughtfully, indicating that what she said made sense.

Looking at the cute appearance of Xiao An Ning talking to herself, Su Lun could not help laughing out loud: "Thank you for your kindness, Second Miss, but Su Lun is of humble origin and has no achievements worthy of praise. I really dare not disturb the general..." He knew in his heart that although Xiao An Ning was warm and kind, the gap in status between himself and the general was too big, and this request would probably only bring trouble to the other party.

Xiao An Ning's smart eyes turned slightly, and an idea suddenly came to his mind: "How about this! You teach me how to use these equipment, and I teach you some archery skills, how about that? Although I may not be as good as my father and the Crown Prince, I am also quite good..."

Facing the girl's eyes that were sparkling and full of expectation, Su Lun could not refuse: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Miss. I hope you can give me some advice."

Xiao An Ning caught a glimpse of the bow and arrow placed next to him, and couldn't help but show his eagerness to try. He said excitedly: "Oh, there is a prepared bow and arrow! It happens that I haven't practiced for a long time, why don't I try my hand at it first."

Before he finished speaking, Qingfeng beside him had already respectfully presented the bow and arrow with both hands, and whispered, "Second Miss, please." As a former member of the Eastern Palace, he naturally knew the strength of this Second Miss very well. What Xiao Anning said was true, her riding and archery skills were both very superb, and she could be said to be a well-deserved daughter of a general.

Xiao Anning drew her bow and arrows with a swift movement. The whole set of movements was as smooth and natural as flowing water. In an instant, three arrows flew out of the bow at the same time, flying straight to the target like a meteor chasing the moon. Without exception, all of them hit the bull's eye accurately. The breeze blew past, blowing up her long black and beautiful hair like a waterfall and her emerald green and elegant skirt. She looked heroic and vigorous, which made people fall in love with her. Su Lun felt as if his heart had missed a beat, and his breathing became rapid.

Xiao An Ning turned around lightly, and looked at Su Lun with a smile in her beautiful eyes: "I'm sorry for showing off my ugliness. So what? I didn't lie to you..." She looked as cute and innocent as a child asking for a reward.

"Pa pa pa" applause rang out! Su Lun was the first to clap and praise: "Second Miss is really skilled, Su Lun admires her."

Xiao An Ning smiled slightly, handed the bow and arrow to Qingfeng beside her, and then said proudly: "Haha, although my literary talent is not very good, but when it comes to martial arts, I am still confident. Of course, I can't compare with you..." After that, she stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Su Lun quickly responded, "How dare I? In terms of archery alone, Su Lun is far inferior."

"You are too modest. When the Crown Prince was assassinated before, I saw you fighting bravely. Except for my father, I have never seen anyone as mighty as you... Compared with you, I am still far behind. I do have this self-knowledge..." Xiao An Ning's face was filled with a bright smile, and he praised generously.

"My life is at stake. I just performed exceptionally well. It's just luck." Su Lun responded humbly. At this time, he looked up at the sky and suggested softly, "It's getting late. If the second lady doesn't mind, why don't you stay at the mansion and enjoy a simple meal with me?"

Xiao Anning hesitated for a moment when she heard Su Lun's invitation, but soon she showed a look of delight. In fact, she had been completely impressed by the food Su Lun had cooked over the past few days, and every dish left her with an endless aftertaste. At the thought of being able to taste those delicious dishes again, she couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation in her heart.

So Xiao Anning nodded and agreed without hesitation. She knew that this meal would not only satisfy her desire for delicious food, but also be a good opportunity to further communicate with Su Lun. After all, it is rare to see such a talented, skilled cook with a humble personality.

For Su Lun, it was also a very pleasant thing to invite Xiao Anning to share lunch with him.
