Rebirth: Find a General as Your Backer

Chapter 83 General Zhou's Demonstration

The girls were filled with excitement and anticipation because of the archery activity. After all, they were from the border region and had a particular fondness for this kind of activity.

So the young ladies began to change into suitable attire for archery. Bai Ruoqian and Liu Yun exchanged glances, feeling somewhat annoyed and anxious as they hadn't prepared appropriate clothing beforehand. Just then, Miss Chen, ever the perceptive one, noticed their predicament and, with a smile, instructed the servants to prepare it for them.

The maids, with their experience, had also helped prepare Miss Su's clothes in advance.

Miss Chen Hui, with her hands on her hips and her eyes full of eagerness, said, "Let's have a competition in a bit and see who is the best."

Upon hearing this, Wang Wan'er's fighting spirit was immediately ignited. She clapped her hands happily and cheered, her face beaming with a confident smile: "Then I won't hold back, I'm sure I can get first place."

Upon hearing this, Li Yao slightly raised her chin, her eyes revealing confidence and pride, and said, "I grew up on horseback, do you think you can beat me?"

"That's right, that's right, Sister Li Yao is amazing!" Miss Chen Hui said again with a face full of admiration.

Miss Chen watched them frolicking with a smile and great interest. Then, she turned to Miss Su and said, "Miss Su, I wonder if you've made any progress lately?"

When I visited the General's Mansion last time, I could tell that Miss Su was not good at these kinds of activities at all.

Su Lianxue gently shook her head and said, "These kinds of activities that require physical strength are indeed a bit difficult for me."

After the last incident, she even thought about learning horseback riding and archery, but the general said that she was not allowed to do dangerous things when he was not around.

She was filled with unhappiness at the time, thinking that with General Zhou by her side, what was there to worry about? But there was nothing she could do; it was just the way things were.

Miss Chen smiled slightly and said, "It's alright, participation is the most important thing. If you feel tired later, be sure to stop and rest."

Miss Chen glanced at Miss Su gently, thinking to herself that everyone would be very happy as long as Miss Su was willing to participate.

After all, Miss Su's health has never been very good, so Miss Chen was naturally very worried, afraid that Miss Su would get tired.

You must know that Miss Su is so delicate, it seems like a gentle breeze could knock her over. Inviting Miss Su here today was solely to express our sincere gratitude.

Miss Chen secretly warned herself that she must not let Miss Su suffer any mishap in the mansion under any circumstances, and she must ensure that she is comfortable and safe here.

Madam Yin smiled and said, "There's no need to worry so much. We're not going to war; we're just having some fun."

Madam Yin was still young and had a very lively and cheerful personality. Her energetic appearance made her particularly compatible with the group of girls, and they could always chat enthusiastically.

When Madam Yin heard that Miss Su was going to visit the Chen residence, she was overjoyed and hurried over to meet her.

"How should the competition be conducted?" Miss Chen Hui looked at her older sister with curiosity and anticipation in her eyes.

Miss Chen pondered for a moment, then said, "How about we limit it to ten arrows? Whoever hits the bullseye the most times and most accurately will win. But who will be the referee?" Her clear and melodious voice echoed in the air.

"Let Sister Zhou come, she's a female general." Su Lianxue suggested involuntarily, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Wow, a female general!" Upon hearing this, the others were immediately filled with envy. They exclaimed, "Miss Su actually has a female general by her side! Could she give us a demonstration first?" Everyone chimed in with curiosity and anticipation.

In truth, they had never seen anyone become a female general before. In their imagination, a female general must be heroic and awe-inspiring.

When Su Lianxue first learned that she was a female general, she was filled with envy. She imagined the female general's heroic appearance on the battlefield and was filled with admiration.

However, Sister Zhou was always a woman of few words, appearing exceptionally calm and reserved. So she said, "Then I need to ask Sister Zhou if she agrees." Then, she turned to look at Zhou Qi, her eyes filled with anticipation.

At first, Zhou Qi simply stood quietly to the side, watching the group of girls get excited about the game that was about to begin.

A faint smile graced her face, but her eyes revealed a detached indifference.

She initially viewed the girls' game as purely detached observation, thinking it was nothing more than young girls playing around, quite different from everything she experienced on the battlefield.

Unexpectedly, the topic has now turned to her, which makes her feel quite helpless. But when she sees the expectant looks in everyone's eyes, especially Miss Su's, she knows that she can't bear to refuse.

So she stepped forward steadily and said, "Then I will demonstrate for you ladies." Her words were firm and powerful, revealing her complete confidence.

Zhou Qi stood tall and straight like a pine tree, as if she were an unyielding giant. Her arms gripped the bow tightly, and her focused expression was truly moving.

Then, she released her grip lightly, and the arrow, like a sharp blade, flew forward with a "whoosh" and hit the bullseye.

Everyone was awestruck by her imposing presence, forgetting their own movements and silently sensing the power of General Zhou's arrow. For a moment, time seemed to stand still.

Su Lianxue couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle softly, her eyes filled with surprise. She always thought General Zhou was incredibly handsome when she saw him exercising in the morning.

She couldn't help but swoon, wondering how charming the general would be when he trained. Thinking of this, her face flushed, and she inwardly scolded herself for having such thoughts at a time like this. She gently shook her head, trying to banish these distracting thoughts from her mind.

With General Zhou's excellent demonstration as an example, the young ladies were eager to try it themselves. At that moment, sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, creating patches of light on the ground, and a gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness.

In such a beautiful setting, the archery competition becomes even more captivating.

With General Zhou acting as referee, the experience was quite different. After all, she was a female general, someone who had been on the battlefield and experienced the baptism of war.

She exudes a unique majesty and aura that inspires awe in everyone.

Wang Wan'er couldn't wait any longer. She immediately stepped forward, her eyes full of excitement and anticipation. "Then I'll be the first one. Please give me your guidance, General Zhou."
