Dad, open the door. I'll bring your mistress back for you.

"Come back, come back. Let you ride Lightning."

Shen Chuning happily turned around, her skirt flying up. "Now I declare that Bage is the best brother. I will grill meat for Bage at noon today."

Shen Chengbai thought of the burnt fish that Shen Chuning had grilled last time, and silently took two steps back. "Why not just forget it? Let Sixth Brother be the best brother. Eighth Brother will be a good second as well."

Shen Chuning continued to coax, "Sixth Brother is not as good as Eighth Brother. Sixth Brother left An Ning to go hunting in the mountains, and only Eighth Brother stayed to accompany An Ning. So today Eighth Brother is the best brother."

Shen Chengbai's face flushed slightly, and he chuckled twice, then asked worriedly, "Can you really ride a big horse? Lightning is different from other horses."

After all, when Shen Chengbai first met Lightning, he was almost kicked by him. Later, he came to feed him three times a day. It took almost a month before Lightning let him touch him.

Shen Chuning pouted, "Why doesn't Bage believe Aning?"

She reached out and touched Lightning's neck, and Lightning lowered his head and rubbed Shen Chuning's shoulder.

"Look, myna, Lightning likes me." Shen Chuning said happily.

Shen Chuning took out a handful of grass from the trough in the stable and fed it to Lightning. Lightning lowered his head and chewed it carefully. After eating, he licked Shen Chuning's palm with his tongue.

Shen Chengbai felt relieved when he saw that Lightning and Shen Chuning were so close.

"Then you can't ride too fast." Shen Chengbai warned.

"Don't worry." Shen Chuning said, grabbing the saddle on Lightning's body, and raised her foot to step on the stirrup, but she was too short and her legs were too short, so she couldn't reach it.

Shen Chengbai shook his head helplessly and ordered Xiao Si to bring the stirrups.

Shen Chuning stepped on the stirrup and climbed onto the horse. "Wow, my dear, your horizons have broadened."

Shen Chengbai rolled his eyes at her. "We're still in the stables. We can't even see the roofs. How can we have a good view?"

Shen Chuning laughed, "I feel open-minded, open-minded."

Shen Chengbai was walking in front holding the reins, while Lightning was carrying Shen Chuning and walking slowly behind.

"Just ride slowly around the lake twice so I can keep an eye on you." Shen Chengbai handed the reins to Shen Chuning.

Shen Chuning nodded obediently, clamped her legs lightly around the horse's belly, and began to run at lightning speed.

Shen Chengbai stared at Shen Chuning without blinking.

Seeing that she really knew how to ride and Lightning really didn't run fast, he slowly felt relieved.

The lake on the farm was not very big, and Shen Chuning rode around it quickly.

Shen Chengbai gave a thumbs up to Shen Chuning who had just returned from riding. "You've had enough, right? Now you can get off now?"

Shen Chuning stretched out her index finger and shook it, "No, no, I want to ride a few more laps."

When Shen Chengbai saw Shen Chuning let go of the reins with one hand, his heart jumped into his throat. He ran a few steps and grabbed the extra on Shangdian's head, "Little ancestor, don't let go. Hold on tight, hold on tight."

Shen Chuning obediently grabbed the reins with both hands and begged, "Myna, myna, please let me ride a few more laps."

Shen Chengbai could only reluctantly loosen the reins, and did not forget to remind him: "Hold on tight and sit tight, don't go too fast."

Shen Chuning replied "I know", but rushed out at twice the speed as before. She did not run around the lake, but ran towards Fengming Mountain.

Shen Chengbai panicked and chased Shen Chuning for about ten meters, then turned around and ran towards the stable.

It was obviously unrealistic to catch up with Lightning with his own two legs, as Shen Chuning's pony was still in the stable.

Shen Chengbai ran back to the stable and saw the servant. He gasped and ordered, "Quick, go next door and borrow a horse. Once you have one, follow the lake to Fengming Mountain to find Miss Nine."

After giving instructions to the servant, Shen Chengbai led the pony out of the stable, but the situation was completely different from what he expected.

Shen Chengbai is tall, and when he rides on a pony, his feet can touch the ground directly.

Besides, this horse is just a child’s toy and can’t run fast at all.

Shen Chengbai had no choice but to dismount and run out of the farm.

His maternal grandfather's farm was also at the foot of Fengming Mountain, separated from the Shen family's farm by two small farms.

There are several war horses on my grandparents' farm, and the servant of the Shen family will definitely not be able to borrow them.

Shen Chengbai knocked on the gate of Zhou's manor, quickly and forcefully. Zhou's manor housed many veterans who were injured in the battlefield. After retiring from the battlefield, they were homeless, so the Zhou family arranged all these people to live in the manor, which was also a way to give these people who had followed the Zhou family through life and death a job to make a living.

The man who opened the door was a lame middle-aged man in his forties, with a long scar on his face that stretched from his temple to the corner of his mouth. "My dear cousin, why are you here? What's wrong? Why are you so anxious?"

Shen Chengbai was panting heavily, "Quick...quick...Uncle Zhang...ride your horse...up the mountain...to find someone..."

Uncle Zhang reached out to support Shen Chengbai, who was almost unable to stand. "Young Master, please don't be anxious. Talk slowly. Fengming Mountain is so big. You have to tell me clearly where to look and who to look for, so that I can make arrangements."

Shen Chengbai stood up straight with Uncle Zhang's support, "It's my ninth sister... My ninth sister is riding a horse up the mountain..."

Uncle Zhang felt that Shen Chengbai was making a big deal out of nothing. The young ladies of the Zhou family could be said to have grown up on horseback since childhood. Besides, the ninth young lady of the Shen family was already over ten years old this year. Why did the young master go to so much trouble? In his opinion, the Shen family had too few girls and doted on the ninth young lady too much.

Uncle Zhang said nonchalantly, "Young Master, please go inside and have a drink of water. Miss Shen Jiu can go up the mountain on horseback. She will come back when she's had enough fun."

Shen Chengbai held Uncle Zhang's arm tightly, "Ninth sister has never ridden a big horse before. This time she rode the Lightning up the mountain."

Uncle Zhang's face turned pale. "This girl is riding a horse for the first time. How could you let her ride Lightning?"

After saying this, Uncle Zhang limped towards the stable.

Just as Shen Chengbai was about to catch up, someone asked, "Who did you say was missing?"
