Chapter 686: Good Things
Shi Shangzhen looked at the scene in front of her and was a little dumbfounded, she could understand many things, after all, men generally don't have women's careful calculations, let him take the children out to play Shi Shangzhen has already been prepared in his heart, no matter how many things he buys, he can't scare her, but she doesn't understand, what the hell are these six horses, and they are not big or small, they are also thin and look like they are dead.
"Where are so many foals?"
Without waiting for Shi Shangzhen to speak, Shen Qi, who was waiting here to pick up the child back, asked curiously.
As soon as Coco heard the word foal, he immediately explained to his mother very 'professionally': "This is not a foal, this is a pony, Debao pony."
The last Debao dwarf immediately deliberately accentuated his tone, and after finishing speaking, he still looked proud.
"Debao pony, you have been deceived" Shen Qi said affirmatively: "I have seen Debao pony, it is impossible to be so tall, I have seen about ninety centimeters, this thing is more than twenty centimeters taller than I have seen, and the body shape of Debao pony is very symmetrical, this horse looks a little thick."
Listening to what Shen Qi said, Shi Shangzhen couldn't help but nod his head and responded: "It's indeed not Debao pony!"
"You've all seen Debao ponies?" Wen Xu said with a little taste, he knew that it was judged from his height, and the so-called certificates were also seen through by Wen Xu at a glance, so he was sure that these horses were all crooked and inferior things, but when they came back, the two women directly and professionally pointed out that these six horses were not Debao ponies, which made Wen Xu very surprised.
Shen Qi said: "A friend bought a horse for the child to play with, but it cost a lot of money, 200,000 yuan, and the shoulder height is less than 90 centimeters, so I know." The rest of the things are remembered after listening to her. Let the horses make me think that I don't have that ability, but your horse is also a little worse, and you almost refer to the deer as a horse."
"I don't know how much money was cheated out of, let's say, how much did it cost to buy these horses, it seems that there is still a lot of private money hidden," Shi Shangzhen asked with a smile.
Niu Niu said: "It's precious, six horses cost 5,000 yuan!"
"Five thousand?"
At this moment, not only Shen Qi was stunned, but even Shi Shangzhen was stunned.
"Six horses for 5,000 yuan to buy you?" Shi Shangzhen confirmed to Wen Xu again, and seeing Wen Xu nodded, Shi Shangzhen said again: "That's weird, or what's wrong with these horses?"
5,000 yuan to buy six horses, not to mention whether the horse is good or not, the price in the town is quite surprising, generally speaking, the starting price of the horses sold in the town is 4,000 to 5,000, the better ones can reach 8,900, or even more than 10,000, the best is the so-called thoroughbred horses from outside, and the price is also in the range of 20,000 to 30,000. This is also within the acceptable range of the villagers who grit their teeth. But six horses and five thousand dollars are about the same as those picked up for nothing, although these horses are useless, but the price is indeed worth it.
Shi Shangzhen just didn't expect that no one wanted such a horse now, and the villagers in order to cater to the mouth of the guests, one wanted a big horse, the other wanted a solid color, and the best was white and red.
"I'm not sick at all, but there are veterinarians in the horse market, and the service in the horse market is not like half a year ago," Wen Xu said.
"Cheap is cheap, but what are you going to do when you buy this horse?" After Shi Shangzhen came back to his senses, he still found that his husband had picked up the cheap, but it was completely useless and cheap, such a small horse-drawn plow, it was not as high as a donkey, it was ugly. Looking at this small body again, it is not a car that can pull a car, which is almost equivalent to a few more flesh weeders at home.
Wen Xu was embarrassed to tell his daughter-in-law that she bought this thing on impulse, and immediately regretted it after buying it, so she had to pretend to be very serious and said: "How can you say that it is useless, these ponies have a good temperament, and they can let the children take them to pull small climbing plows."
"Just so casually, in less than half a year, these six ponies are estimated to be dead," Shi Shangzhen said with certainty.
For Shi Shangzhen, he deeply knows a truth, that is, as long as it is a publicly-owned thing, there will only be two ends if there is no appointment, one is turned into his own by this person, and the other is after playing, and there can be no third result.
Wen Xu said: "This can't be called casually!"
Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Wen Xu realized that he had found trouble for himself.
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with any charter, so he said: "Which child will borrow it, then that child is responsible for feeding, and Xiaoyao will leave this matter to you."
"I still have to take care of Xiao Brown," Xiao Yao immediately began to play tricks.
Where could Wen Xu let him escape, and stretched out his hand in front of Xiao Yao: "Take it!"
"What?" Xiao Yao looked at Wen Xu in confusion.
"Do you have the money to buy forage? Do you have money to buy soybeans? Do you have a grazing area?......" Wen Xu asked a lot of conditions for raising horses, and even listed the water tank for horses to drink water as a condition, Xiao Yao was naturally dumbfounded, and the little money he saved was estimated to be a month at most.
"I know, I'll do it!" Xiao Yao recognized the situation very clearly.
"Don't think it's drudgery, I'll tell you that this is also powerful, who will use this horse today, and who won't use it, then it's not up to you to have the final say?" Wen Xu raised his eyebrows at Xiao Yao.
Xiao Yao immediately opened his mouth when he heard this, and he was stupidly happy.
When Shi Shangzhen saw that this scene was played out again, it would immediately be the story of the two traitorous ministers conspiring to frame Zhongliang, and hurriedly interrupted the two goods: "What do you say! Borrow in the order of first come, first served, you are not allowed to make any unspoken rules and other nonsense for me, if I know, be careful of your skin!"
Xiao Yao's face immediately turned from a smile to bitterness, and he was very reluctant, but he gave Wen Xu a look the moment he lowered his head.
"Tie the pony to the tree outside, and then you go in and get some fodder to feed!
Now the little ones who are on the rise immediately got busy, and after tying the horses, they moved the materials to the horses one by one energetically.
"Hey, what are you going to do?" Wen Xu saw Hang Chen packing up the things he bought today and was about to enter the house, and immediately stopped her.
"I don't play with ponies, so I naturally go back to the house to sleep, I've been running for a day, and I'm tired," Hang Chen said.
Wen Xu walked over and took all the things in her hand: "Be honest, help them work!
"What are you doing? You also say that I am idle, and you are the most idle!" Hang Chen said.
Wen Xu said, "I must not go and get some sets of horse harnesses for the children or something, or the children will hang the horses on the climbing plough with their mouths?"
Shen Qi listened to the conversation between the brother and sister, and couldn't help but snort for fun, and said to Shi Shangzhen: "Do they do this every day?"
"I have a headache when I listen too much!" Shi Shangzhen sighed.
That's it, the work has finally been carried out in an orderly manner, Shen Qi looked at his own two cents and estimated that he would not be able to pull it back now, maybe he would have to mix in Wen Xu's house at night, the child could mix himself and eat at other people's houses, and his husband also asked some friends to come here for dinner tonight.
So he left Niu Niu and Coco here, and went home to prepare dinner. Anyway, I cook it myself, and I have to count on the restaurant for big dishes and hard dishes.
Half an hour did not arrive, as long as the children with big radish heads in the village were in the village, they all heard that Wen Xu had bought a few ponies here, and these bear children were like awls on their stomachs all day long, and they couldn't sit still.
Da Leizi smiled and asked Xiao Yao: "Brother Xiao Yao, did my uncle really say that we can borrow these horses to play?"
"What Brother Xiao Yao, Brother Xiao Yao, your uncle is my uncle, it's a mess of generations!" Xiao Yao immediately corrected Da Lei.
It turns out that Da Leizi and Yuanbo don't like to take care of Xiao Yao, one is the virtue of Xiao Yao in the past, and even the adults in the village dislike it, not to mention the children. Second, he also thinks that Da Lei and these people are rustic, and Da Lei and these children think that Xiao Yao doesn't understand anything, and he is a fool who can't even tell the difference between wheat and leeks.
Now that Xiao Yao is holding the pony, Da Leizi immediately became acquainted: "Uncle Xiao Yao, is this okay?"
Anyway, the seniority is like this, Da Lei has not been called like this here, the girl who sat at the table with him, he also called the little aunt, and the generation is used to suffering losses and eating calmly.
"The first three or four people who come every morning can borrow it, but after you borrow it, you have to feed it, I want to watch you feed the horses, and then brush the horses......" Xiao Yao said about the conditions.
Although Wen Xu doesn't often do this, but occasionally when he rises, he will still brush Erbai like this, and it will be like a second time in about a month, so Xiao Yao probably knows what it is to brush horses and buckle hooves, and take advantage of this opportunity to 'outsource' his horse.
The so-called learning is not easy, learning bad is a matter of a moment, Xiao Yao is like this now, the original kind of arrogant and bluffing little thorn is gone, and it has become a more difficult little clever ghost to deal with, he used to scold him, and he immediately exploded the thorn, and now you scold again, if he can't take advantage of it immediately, he will definitely think of a yin person in his heart.
It's darker with Wen Xu.
"Why do the five groups of people who play with all six horses brush up?" Da Lei was shrewd, and he saw through the cattiness at a glance.
Xiao Yao's answer suddenly left Da Lei speechless: "If you don't want to, don't play, why did I say that five groups of people brush horses, I have to drive the horses to the livestock friends at night, and I have to rush out in the morning, isn't it, in fact, I do a lot of chores, don't you understand?"
Xiao Lei has to understand even if he doesn't understand at this time, he knows that if he doesn't understand, he estimates that he will have to wait at least a week to play.
Wen Xu still didn't know that his task of sending Xiaoyao had been passed on to others by the bear child, at this time Wen Xu was making a set of harnesses for the six horses to pull the climbing plow, with a herringbone frame on the horse's neck, with a small rope saddle on the horse's back, and a crossbar dragged on the ground, so that the horse would be comfortable and could also let the horse exert its maximum strength.
By the time they were waiting for dinner, Wen Xu had already had a whole plan, and the children had taken care of the horses.
Shi Shangzhen heard Wen Xu ask around, and said with a smile: "Can it be good, your six horses are about to catch up with the food of five Erbai!"
"Uh, won't you?" Wen Xu was a little incredulous.
Xiao Yao nodded at this time: "I ate almost two buckets of essence, my aunt won't let me feed it, if I let it be fed, I guess I can still eat it!"
Shi Shangzhen said: "I'm afraid that I will break them up, and I look like a starving ghost is reincarnated! I don't know how the people in front of me raised them, and they don't even look up when they eat food."
"Hey, waste, it's good that they horse dealers can feed hay to their fullness," Wen Xu thought for a moment and understood.
Xiao Yao said: "Then their luck comes, and when they get to us, they won't have enough to eat."
Hearing Xiao Yao say this, Wen Xu suddenly didn't feel at a loss, although the six horses were a little inferior, but he could be regarded as saving six little lives here, which was also a good thing.
"Indeed!" Wen Xu said happily.
