"Brother Shi, you have mastered the basic techniques, but there are still problems with the posture of archery, so you can't shoot correctly. I'll help you correct it. You have to straighten your waist and raise your hands..."

Xue Ning'er taught very seriously. After saying that, she even came behind Zhang Zong to help him straighten his waist and back, and corrected some of Zhang Zong's mistakes. It was nothing at the beginning, but with some physical contact, Zhang Zong felt a strange emotion breeding between the two.

Xue Ning'er also clearly felt the change in the atmosphere between the two, and her face turned red soon, but she still stubbornly taught Zhang Zong to shoot arrows. When Zhang Zong shot the first arrow, although he failed to shoot the wild duck, Ning'er still clapped and cheered: "Brother Shi is so great. You have mastered the tricks of archery. As long as you practice more, you will be fine."

"Thank you, Ning'er, for teaching me to shoot arrows, otherwise I will be fooled today." Zhang Zong also smiled and thanked Xue Ning'er.

"Brother Shi, you are polite, this is what I should do!" Facing Zhang Zong's thanks, Ning'er showed a shy expression again. After whispering, she turned around and ran to the other side, then picked up her bow and arrow, but she didn't shoot one of them in a row.

"Young master, do you need me to tell me about the little princess's thoughts?" At this moment, Wan'er walked to Zhang Zong and laughed in a low voice. She had already told Zhang Zong that Xue Ning'er liked him, but unfortunately she was scolded by Zhang Zong.

Zhang Zong was not stupid, of course he saw Ning'er's thoughts, but he was still a little hesitant, so after pondering for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Everything will go with the flow!"

"Young Master, don't be too passive. The little princess is a girl. She knows how to show your kindness to you. Why can't you take the initiative to take the initiative? Young Master, are you going to wait for the little princess to propose marriage to you?" Wan'er was anxious when she heard this and said anxiously.

"This..." Zhang Zong didn't know how to answer when he heard this. Finally, he pondered for a while before speaking, "I'll think about it carefully when I go back. And even if I agree with this kind of thing, it's useless if the eldest princess doesn't agree."

"How could the eldest princess not agree? Although the capital is big, is there a young hero who is even better than the young master?" Wan'er said again with a confident expression.

Zhang Zong smiled and shook his head when he heard Wan'er's words, and said nothing more. Marriage between nobles is not that simple. Sometimes personal ability is actually not important. What matters is family background and background, and this is exactly what Zhang Zong lacks.

At that moment, Zhang Zong no longer spoke, but silently pulled out the arrow and put it on the bow. According to the method Ning Er taught him, he shot the wild ducks on the water. These wild ducks may have been comfortable for too long and had no sense of crisis at all. Even if the wild ducks were alarmed, other wild ducks swam over soon. Soon, Zhang Zong also gained something and actually shot a few ducks. Unfortunately, his archery skills were not good. The ducks shot were only slightly injured, and most of them struggled to fly and escape.

After a shot of the arrow was finished, Xue Shao asked someone to drag a small boat over, and then several people boarded the boat and picked up the wild ducks that were shot on the boat. Many wild ducks were injured and could not fly, but when they were caught, they still flapped their wings and resisted. Unfortunately, they were quickly slapped by Zhang Zong and the others, and then they were honestly thrown onto the boat.

"A dozen wild ducks, brother Shi, can you take these ducks back and make them into roast duck?" Xue Shao smiled at Zhang Zong with a wild duck at this time. He never got tired of eating the roast duck from Zhang Zong's family.

"No, although these wild ducks are quite fat, they still look too tiring in comparison, and they are definitely not delicious when roasted." Zhang Zong also smiled and shook his head.

His roast duck is not ordinary ducks, but ducks raised by the people in his manor by the cramming method. Each duck is big and fat, and now it has supplied some restaurants in the capital. Raising ducks has now become a major source of income for his manor.

"Although these ducks cannot be made into roast duck, they taste very good with rice wine and stew them over high heat!" At this time, Wan'er also smiled and said, her cooking skills were already better than others, and she also began to improve some dishes by herself, which tasted quite good.

"Wan'er takes action, then I'll be relieved!" Xue Ning'er also smiled and said when she heard this.

Although Wan'er is Zhang Zong's maid, they all know Zhang Zong's attitude towards Wan'er, so no one dares to underestimate Wan'er in normal times. Even Xue Ning'er and Wan'er are good friends, and she will ask her about cooking skills and girl-red in private.

At this moment, several people took their prey back to the villa of Changsun's house. Wan'er immediately went to cook the wild ducks and Xue Ning'er also went to help. Originally, these things could be done by the servants, but since they were preys that were made by themselves, of course, they tasted more delicious.

Zhang Zong sat in the living room chatting with Xue Shao and Changsun Yuanyi, but at this moment, he suddenly saw a maid running in from outside, then leaning in Changsun Yuanyi's ear and whispering a few words. As a result, Changsun Yuanyi also frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Xue Shao asked curiously when he saw his wife's appearance. The couple had already begun to go through the initial running-in period. They no longer had a quarrel every day like before, and their relationship became more intimate.

"There is something. I'll go and see. Husband, you are here to accompany Brother Shi!" Changsun Yuanyi pondered for a moment and said.

"If you have any questions, let's go together. Anyway, Wan'er and Ning'er have to wait a long time to prepare the meal." Xue Shao immediately stood up and said.

"Okay, but it's all family affairs, so I'm afraid I'll make you laugh at Brother Shi." Changsun Yuanyi nodded when she heard this, and then smiled embarrassedly at Zhang Zong.

"The family is big and the business is big. Sometimes anything can happen. Let's go and have a look together!" Zhang Zong smiled and said, and he stood up as he said.

At that moment, Changsun Yuanyi asked someone to lead the way in front, and then the three of them left the living room. However, they did not leave the other courtyard, but went through a corner gate to the east of the other courtyard. There was also a courtyard here. Although it was large in area, it looked quite simple.

As soon as he arrived here, Zhang Zong smelled a unique stench of cattle, horse and animal animals. This made him immediately guess that this place is probably a place where cattle and horses are raised in the manor. The manor needs to cultivate land, so it requires a lot of cattle and horses. Ordinary tenants cannot afford cattle and horses at all, so they are usually raised by the owner's family, which is a cattle shed, but it is actually a large yard for cattle and horses.
