Lin Rui, the manager of the stables, had long since seen to it that the Meng Family horses were fed. The adults mostly had their own riding gear, but for the few children who didn't, Meng Jie had already seen to that as well.
Meng Huaijin walked out, holding a helmet and leading Meng Yanchen by the hand. Meng Yanchen wore a miniature helmet and a custom-made white riding suit. Fu Wenying followed behind them, dressed in a navy blue riding habit that looked both sharp and elegant.
Meng Huaijin led them to the stables. Fu Wenying’s horse was a reddish-brown Arabian mare named Mojue. Having not ridden for some time, she told Meng Huaijin she was going to lead the horse around the track once to let it acclimate to the environment. Stepping into the stirrup, Fu Wenying swung onto the horse with effortless grace. Her black riding boots were impeccably maintained, shimmering under the sunlight in perfect harmony with Mojue’s glistening reddish-brown coat. She slowly urged the mare into a walk, then a trot. Within a lap or two, woman and horse found their rhythm and began to canter around the track.
