Chapter 13 Work hard to make money to buy a donkey

The market is at least an hour and a half walk from Lotus Village, and if you want to get a good place, you have to hurry early. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Ma and Gu Cuihua stayed to look after the house, Gu Sizhuang didn't go because he wanted to read, and only Gu Dazhuang and Chen plus their four daughters went to the market.

Gu Dazhuang was carrying two baskets of eggs with a flat pole, while Chen was holding a small basket containing Gu Sizhuang's persimmons.

As soon as a few people left the village, they saw Chen Erniu, who was driving an ox cart, also coming out of the house, and when they saw their family coming, they greeted them with a smile, "Is Dazhuang going to the market?" ”

"Yes, I saved some eggs at home and sold them at the market for money." Gu Dazhuang and Chen Erniu grew up together since childhood, and their friendship has always been good.

"That's right, I'm also going to the market to deliver some goods, you can make my car." Chen Erniu laughed, and when he saw that they had taken a lot of things, he spoke.

"No, no, the old cow is not too young, and we people plus the goods will not crush it yet." Gu Dazhuang shook his head again and again, how did he not know that this old scalper had followed Chen Erniu for half his life, and he was almost a family-like existence.

"Dazhuang, you are always so polite." Chen Erniu shook his head, put the pipe word in his hand and took a puff in his mouth, and grinned, "That's it, you put things up, Siniang and the four of them also come up, and the two of you will walk slowly behind." ”

Gu Dazhuang still wanted to refuse, but he saw Chen Erniu's low tone, "Dazhuang, if you refuse again, it is not appropriate for me to be a friend." ”

"Okay, I'll trouble you then." Seeing this, Gu Dazhuang couldn't say anything more, unloaded the flat shoulder, put the basket in the car, turned his head and told Gu Siniang, "You must be obedient in the car, and you are not allowed to make trouble." Got it? ”

"Got it, Daddy!" Four voices rang out in unison.

Chen Erniu turned his head and smiled, beckoned to sit down, and then waved his whip, and the old scalper drove up.

The speed of the old scalper was very slow, but even if it was so slow, it quickly distanced itself from Gu Dazhuang and Chen, who were walking.

The ox cart drove all the way, and the loess road kicked up a cloud of dust behind it.

Gu Siniang was a little emotional, in her previous life, when she watched TV series, she always envied the scene of the ancient people spurring horses, and felt that they were very stylish when they traveled, and when she really arrived in ancient times, she knew that it was a lie for the gods and horses to call the TV series.

Horses are such a precious thing, how can ordinary people have things, the imperial court has a special Sima Bureau, which is responsible for raising horses, these horses are to be used in the time of war, even if ordinary people have money, they are not allowed to use it.

To put it simply, only officials can have the qualifications to raise and use horses, and the status of merchants is low, even if they have money, they cannot use it.

These are clearly stipulated by the imperial court, and once they are violated, they will be punished with a board at least and imprisoned at worst.

In comparison, donkeys are not so precious, so many families will retreat to raising donkeys, and donkey carts have become a must-have for travel.

If it is a metaphor, it is like a private car in the later generations, and it is very convenient to travel.

Of course, that's only relative, for a family like the Gu family, food and clothing are still reluctant, and raising a donkey is too far away.

Gu Siniang looked down at the small basket of fruits at her feet, and secretly swore that when she sold the silver, she would buy a donkey for the family, and then their family would also have an ancient version of the car, thinking about it, she couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Yuanniang, who was sitting opposite her, Gu Erniang and Gu Sanniang both looked at her strangely.

"Siniang, what are you laughing at stupidly?" Gu Erniang asked at the beginning.

"Hehe, I'm thinking, when we have money, we will buy a little donkey, and then our family will ride a donkey to the market, what a good thing." Gu Siniang was happy as she spoke, as if she had bought a little donkey.

"When the time comes, I'm going to ride one by myself, and that little tiger was riding in front of me a while ago. When I have a little donkey, I have to go around his house three times. Gu Sanniang spoke, she had tender teeth for a while, and her speech was not as leaky as before, so she began to recover her nature little by little.

Gu Erniang burst out laughing, "Sanniang, you just dream." ”

"It's a dream!" A cold snort came, and as soon as they turned around, they saw the young man riding a donkey, raising his head and looking at them with disdain, "It's really shameful that you still want to buy a donkey." ”

Qian Xiaohu recently learned this idiom in a private school, and he didn't know how to apply it, so he met the four sisters of the Gu family and used it immediately.

"Qian Xiaohu, what do you say?" Gu Sanniang immediately exploded when she heard this, stretched out her hand and pointed at the young man, looking angry, she and Qian Xiaohu are two little overlords in the village, and they don't like each other, so naturally they have a lot of fights.

"Hmph, that's you. There are clouds in the book, women should be virtuous and virtuous, look at yourself, how can you have a little bit of a woman's appearance. Qian Xiaohu went to school for a few days, and he spoke in a crepe.

These words directly provoked Gu Sanniang, she stood up and was about to get out of the car, but was stopped by Gu Yuanniang, "Sanniang, you forgot how your father explained, if you are disobedient, be careful to go home and be beaten." ”

Gu Sanniang had no choice but to sit down again, but her eyes were still staring at Qian Xiaohu.

"Eh, I'm not going to talk to you, you go slowly, I'll go first." After that, he patted the little donkey's buttocks, and the little donkey took small steps and ran away.

The person walked away, but the voice still floated clearly, "I, I, I have a little donkey, I ride it to the market......"

"Phew!" Gu Sanniang said angrily, "He waited for me, and I made sure he looked good when I met him." ”

"Okay, okay, you have such a temper, I don't know who you look like!" Gu Yuanniang shook her head and sighed.

"Third sister, don't worry, I will definitely make money to buy you a little donkey, and when the time comes, we will ride a donkey to his door to anger him." Gu Siniang interjected, she must make the family's life better, "Not only donkey carts, but also horse-drawn carriages and big houses in the future." ”

"It's still Siniang, you are caring, you are really a good sister of my sister." Gu Sanniang grinned again when she heard this.

"Well, Siniang is right. A few of us are big people, working together, there will always be this day. Gu Yuanniang also encouraged.

Chen Erniu was driving the car in front, listening to the four sisters of the Gu family in his ears, and shook his head funny.

Because of the ox cart, the time was greatly shortened, and when they arrived in the town, it was just dawn, and a few families had just come to set up stalls at the city gate.

Chen Erniu entered the city and had other things, so he put the four sisters at the city gate and drove away in an ox cart.
