Chapter 122 Buying a Horse

Mu Ru was followed by five men, and three and a half children, one of whom had a big belly, and another man was holding a swaddled baby in his arms.

The common feature of them is that they are sloppy, dirty, and look malnourished.

"Oh, it's worth not mentioning this matter."

Mu Ru sighed, and the man and child behind her began to wipe away tears.

"Why are you crying? Hold on, we're almost home."

Hearing the person behind him crying, Mu Ru became a little irritable for no reason.

"Hungry, eat something first, this adult can bear it, but the child can't."

It happened that Qiao Yi hadn't left the Chaos stall yet, so she ordered a bowl of Chaos for each of Mu Ru and the others.

"I won't be polite to you this time, they are really hungry."

Mu Ru sighed.

"I heard that you are going to..."

Before Qiao Yi finished speaking, Mu Ru interrupted Qiao Yi angrily.

"Sister, don't mention this, I won't get angry when you mention it. What kind of relative is this? This is simply a hungry wolf, a hungry wolf that eats our own family. We will not have this relative in the future."

Mu was gasping for breath.

"Don't be angry, it's actually a good thing. Once you know their faces, you will know how to get along with them. Some people spend their entire lives knowing what a person is like, and some people can't see other people's faces until they die. In fact, you should feel lucky that you have seen a person clearly in such a short time. Isn’t it just suffering, we are still afraid of suffering? Is there any benefit?"

Qiaoyi smiled and pointed to the person sitting behind Mu Ru.

That's Mu Ru's husband, it's so rare that he still persists.

Although she didn't know what Mu Ru and the others went through. But she also made a good guess.

If there is no accident, it must be that they didn't treat Mu Ru and the others as human beings. They took so long to come back. I'm afraid they were sent to the capital, and then they were driven back.

The reason why they are so embarrassed is that not enough money is definitely one of the reasons.

"Big sister, I understand what you're saying, but I'm just angry. I never thought there would be such a person in the world."

Mu Ru was full of words and wanted to talk to Qiao Yi, but she also knew that this was not the place to talk, so she held back everything.

"Relax, things have already happened, and it won't help if you are angry, right? When the time comes and you get sick, it will be even more worth the loss. Have a good meal, then find an ox cart to go home, wash and wash, and spend time in the beautiful Get some sleep. You'll find that life is still pretty good."

"It's easy to talk to you, unlike them, you know how to cry."

Mu Ru is in a better mood.

"You are the head of the family. If it wasn't for your bad mood, do you think they would cry when they have nothing to do? You made them worry, and only crying can vent their grievances. Sister Ru, don't blame me for talking too much. Eat well. Come on, wait for me here, and I'll find you an ox cart."

Qiaoyi patted Mu Ru on the shoulder, settled the chaotic money, and then got up to leave.

Before walking far, they came across a bullock cart. Qiao Yi pointed to Mu Ru and the others, and then gave the driver twenty cash, asking her to take him home.

Qiao Yi saw that the coachman had started talking with Mu Ru, so he turned and left.

After buying salt and pastries, Joey went straight to the livestock market.

Before I got close, I smelled a strong smell of urine.

When I arrived at the livestock market, the taste was simply amazing.

It's like the smell of stinky feet that haven't been washed for several years.

Holding his nose and suppressing the discomfort, Joey quickly passed through the livestock market.

Looking all the way, there is only one that sells horses.

"Shopkeeper, are all your horses here?"

Joy looked and saw that there were four horses in total, two black, one maroon, and one white.

The two black horses looked tall and strong, and the white ones were smooth.

As for the bay-red horse, it looked lazy, and those eyes seemed to defy everything.

"It's all here. My sister wants to buy a horse? You have come to the right place. In this entire county, our family has horses."

The shopkeeper said proudly, a sense of superiority arises spontaneously.

"How did you sell it?"

Joy doesn't know how to look at horses, but she prefers the maroon one.

Seeing Qiao Yi pointing at the maroon horse, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up.

"This is one of the best horses we have here. Don't look at it as thinner and doesn't run very fast, but it has very good stamina. If you find a match, I will give you the lowest price, and you will give it thirty taels."

The shopkeeper had a big loss expression.

"Thirty taels? This is too expensive. This horse looks very difficult to communicate with. I guess you haven't sold it for a long time."

Joy looked at the store with a smile.

She doesn't understand horses, but she has eyes.

When she pointed at the maroon horse just now, she could see the flash of surprise in the shopkeeper's eyes.

Is there something wrong with this horse?

"Let me tell you the truth. This horse came from the battlefield. It hurt its legs, it can't run fast, and it has a bad temper. It's been a year, and no one bought it. If you really want to buy it, Give me twenty taels, and I will treat you as my friend."

When the shopkeeper mentioned twenty taels, his expression was quite painful.

The corners of Joey's mouth twitched as he watched.

She only needs a horse for transportation, and she can't ride it if it runs too fast.

As long as it is faster than the carriage, she is satisfied.

And the horse is the color she likes.

"Ten taels of silver, if you sell it, I will buy it directly, if you don't sell it, forget it."

"This is impossible. You can't even buy an old horse for ten taels of silver. If you don't sell it, you won't sell it."

As soon as Joey gave him twelve taels, the shopkeeper shook his head like a rattle.

"Then you continue to sell yours, I'm going home."

Qiao Yi didn't have any nostalgia at all, and he lifted his legs and was about to leave.

She really can't bear the smell here.

"Hey, hey, don't go, don't go, fifteen taels, the lowest price."

Seeing that Qiao Yi was about to leave, the store owner became anxious.

Finally, someone wanted to buy this stubborn horse, and she didn't want to just miss it.

"You are giving me a pair of saddles for fifteen taels. If it is okay, I will pay the money immediately."

A normally better saddle would cost two taels of silver, so she spent thirteen taels of silver to buy the horse.

"You really know how to buy things, so let's sell you, but we have agreed in advance that we will settle the matter after paying the money. If you ask me to return the horse, I will not do it."

The shopkeeper vaccinated Joey in advance.

This horse has injured several people this year, and she can hardly afford the medicine.

If it wasn't because it was a war horse and couldn't be killed, she would have been stewed long ago.

"Does it have hidden diseases? Does it have diseases?"

"No, don't worry about this, our family never sells sick horses."

The shopkeeper said with assurance.

"As long as there is no disease or hidden disease, the horse will be mine after buying it. No matter what, I will not ask you to return it."

Joy is not a messy person, as long as she bought the horse and brought it out of the shop, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with the shop.
