The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 544

“What did she say?”

Song Xuechun was at a disadvantage with the language, completely unable to understand, and could only ask Rong Dai.

Rong Dai didn’t want her to get angry again, so she explained with a smile, “She just wants to challenge my polo skills.”

Song Xuechun had no doubts. She immediately looked at her worriedly and asked, “But can you play polo?”

You have to know that Dai'er was terrified of riding horses before!

Besides, polo requires horsemanship skills first and foremost, followed by ball skills.

“I know a little. Now that I've married into a wealthy family, I must know a little about these high-end recreational activities.”

Rong Dai replied with a smile.

In her previous life, polo was also one of the aristocratic social activities, called maball, also known as mall jock.

The noble families attached great importance to the cultivation of their children. Men were required to master the six arts:

Namely, ritual, music, archery, horsemanship, calligraphy, mathematics. At the very least, they had to master the five classics and six arts.

The cultivation of women was equally important, because women were responsible for maintaining harmony in the family, developing relationships within the family, and educating children.

Therefore, the four arts of qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and dance, as well as embroidery, and knowledge of household affairs were also necessities.

The rest were these essential social recreational activities. Mallet and equestrian skills were a must.

Not some kind of leisurely life of living in idleness, these were all basic skills.

In her previous life, her family was prominent and she was of noble status. Her parents' education of her was even more demanding, and she was from a distinguished family.

So she was also quite accomplished in archery and swordsmanship.

Although these things may not necessarily come in handy, there was inevitably a need to compete in aristocratic circles.

If you don't know how, you'll become a laughing stock and won't hold your head high.

Because these things gave women an edge, providing better conditions to choose a husband, so the noble families attached great importance to them.

Her equestrian and polo skills were personally taught by her father. Before she got married, she was always at the top of these projects in the capital's aristocratic circle.

In her previous life, polo was a very important social activity among the aristocrats, but she didn't expect that in this afterlife,

this skill of Huaxia had declined, while Western countries valued it more.

“That’s good then. Be careful.”

“We’re just going through the motions, no need to take it too seriously.”

“I don't know how to play polo. I just know this sport has a pretty high risk factor. Don't fall down.”

When Song Xuechun heard her say this, she nodded without any doubt, still worried and urging caution.

Rong Dai smiled and nodded. The two then went to the hall.

“Mrs. Huo, try this polo mallet, I think you'll like the feel.”

Shortly after the two arrived in the lobby, Huo Ersi had also changed into polo clothes, looking different from usual, very eye-catching.

He brought over two polo mallets and handed one of them to her personally.

Rong Dai did not stand on ceremony: “Thank you.”

She took the polo mallet and tried it out in her hand. It was very handy indeed.

“Ms. Song, this is yours.”

Huo Ersi smiled faintly and had his secretary hand the polo mallet to Song Xuechun.

“The mallet is very good.”

Rong Dai tried it a few times and was very satisfied.

Huo Ersi looked at her, the appreciation in his eyes undisguised.

Dressed in polo clothes, Rong Dai looked gallant and very eye-catching.

“It's good that Madam likes it. Today we're just having fun, no competitive restrictions.”

“Just now they proposed that husband and wife form a pair, four pairs a group. I don't have a female partner, so I may have to impose on Mrs. Huo.”

Huo Ersi obviously had ulterior motives, but he spoke very humbly, leaving Rong Dai no reason to refuse.

“It’s alright, it’s just for fun.”

Rong Dai smiled lightly in response.
