Chapter 55: The focus of the whole village

"Mom, it's really much more convenient for us to do business in the city after we have a ox cart. For example, the ice powder can be rubbed at home in advance, so we don't have to get up early every day to work in the shop."

Li was collecting his clothes, and Su Xiaomu followed her and explained the benefits of a ox cart.

But Li didn't think the money had to be spent.

She put her clean clothes on the chair next to her and looked at her and said, "It's just a little while to get up early, so there's no need to worry about it."

Besides, you and your sister-in-law pushed a cart into the city before, and didn’t you do business? At that time, you got up earlier than now.”

Li is not that generous. A cow costs seven or eight taels of silver.

Seven or eight taels are enough for their family to live for several months.

They have some extra money now, but they will definitely not be able to live a car without having to walk.

"But even if my mother doesn't think about doing business for me and my sister-in-law, she should think about it for her husband, right?"

Su Xiaomu said this and knew that she and Yin were not enough to arouse Li's heartache. She was familiar with Gu Jingcheng's killer weapon.

Everything at home is done for him to study, so it doesn’t matter if he sacrifices a little.

Sure enough, when he heard that buying a car was related to Gu Jingcheng, Li's eyebrows immediately loosened.

She said: "What does this have to do with Jingcheng?"

"Of course it's relevant. If we have a ox cart, my husband will not be much more convenient for him to go home every time?

And even if he doesn't consider this, if his husband doesn't take anything like yesterday, he doesn't have to wait for someone else's cart to return to the academy the next day."

Su Xiaomu entered Gu Jingcheng, and by the way, she recalled the inconvenience of going to school when she was studying, and she talked more and more eye-catching.

"My husband is already very tired when studying in the academy.

He cannot get the love of his parents at home, nor can he enjoy the care of his brother. He is alone outside and occasionally it is inconvenient to go home if he encounters anything.

Mom, think, if you are your husband, wouldn’t you feel very sad?”

When she talked about this, she wiped her nose with tears in her eyes, looking emotional.

Li never thought of this.

She recalled the thin appearance of Gu Jingcheng yesterday, and a burst of heartache surged in her heart: "Okay, what you said makes sense. We must buy this car."

There were no conditions before, but now that I have it, I can never feel wronged by Jingcheng anymore.

"I just said, my mother feels so sorry for her husband, how could she bear to let him suffer?

Tomorrow, tomorrow I will go to the city with my sister-in-law to see the carriage, and then tell my husband the good news to let him know that it will be convenient for him to come back in the future!”

Su Xiaomu was really excited at this moment. Gu Jingcheng was inconvenient and she didn't know that she didn't have to walk anymore anyway!

The next day was originally a day for the store to close and rest, but Su Xiaomu still got up early and went to the city to buy a ox cart.

Only she and Li knew about this for the time being.

Li’s meaning was to tell his family after buying it, otherwise the whole family would discuss this matter in a verbal way, and she wouldn’t like to listen to it.

When she arrived at the market, she caught a look at a strong bull at first sight, but the price was not as beautiful as the bull's appearance.

"Boss, I really want it. You can just sell me four taels of silver. I have brought all the money. As long as you nod, I will take the cart away."

Su Xiaomu looked at the scalper she liked, and was so satisfied.

The scalper has a tall body, with the word "Guo" and its nose makes "huh" sounds from time to time. A pair of sensitive ears are erected on both sides of its head, swaying from time to time.

The pointed horns on both sides of the ears are like two steel drills, and the limbs are even and powerful, which can be said to be the best among cows.

"Miss, no matter how sincere you are, you can't let me suffer a loss, right? You are so pleased, I will tell you the truth. I can't get out of this scalper without ten taels of silver. This is a good scalper from other places. Our local calf can't raise such a big guy."

The boss didn't hang her, and recommended the cow next to her to her.

He patted the cow on the back, and then the cow let out a "moo..."

"If you take this, six silver, if you want a cart, you will have six taels and a half."

"Okay, then I want this one."

Su Xiaomu reluctantly led the cow with the cart and went home. She looked back at the prince in the cow three times, and she burst into tears!

Ten silvers... It was a huge sum that she could not bear.

To put it bluntly, ten taels of silver are enough to buy five of hers.

But this awesome is really the most handsome she has ever seen.

He drove the ox cart back to the village slowly. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the village, Su Xiaomu heard the screams of passing villagers.

The aunt gasped and looked at the ox cart in disbelief: "I said, Gu's wife, your family is living such a good life now, have the money to buy a car?"

"No, haven't your family used all the money to support Gu Laosan's schooling?

How can I have extra money to buy this thing? My God, look at this cow, very strong, can help the family do a lot of farm work."

My aunt's eyes were filled with envy, and of course there was a hint of jealousy.

Who doesn't know in this village? Although the Gu family has a scholar, they are as poor as ordinary farmers.

Even their lives are not as good as them.

After all, studying costs money, and buying books and ink isn’t that big expense?

When my aunt shouted, the people who were wandering around the village heard it and they all came to Su Xiaomu to join in the fun.

One and two surrounded the ox cart, looking at their cows, exclaiming both envious and jealous.

The Gu family also came here at this time. Li didn't go out today, just planned to come to the village gate to wait for Su Xiaomu to come back.

But they came a little late, and now the entrance of the village is surrounded and can't be thrust.

"Gu Ruochen, Gu Ruochen, this is the malt sugar my mother gave me. I will share it with you. Can you let me see the ox cart later?"

The children in the village couldn't squeeze into the crowd of adults, and were curious about seeing the ox cart, so they took candy to please the children of the Gu family.

Gu Ruonan was also very lively. Several girls, half a year old, were holding a large bouquet of wild flowers in their hands, and spoke to her softly: "Let's take a look, after watching Niu Niu, let's play house together and let you be your mother."

"Then we will agree that I will invite you to come and see you later when Aunt San takes the cow back!"

Gu Ruonan was not moved at all, but when she heard that she could be a "mother", she couldn't resist the temptation.

The adults of the Gu family are also very excited now. Li only told them that they had something to come to the village gate, but they did not say that they had added a ox cart at home.
