Chapter 258: Fu Bao: It's raining
Dingbei Hou Yuan's wife died early, and at that time, Dingbei Hou was not by his side and went to Northern Xinjiang to serve in the army.
Xu Huaiyi, the eldest son of the Marquis of Dingbei, was able to refuse to accept the order because of an identity problem, and Emperor Yongping specially named Xu Huaiyi as the seventh filial piety and righteousness, and gave the eldest lady of the Zhao family a first-grade lady.
At that time, just for this matter, his Qiantian Temple was also struck by lightning.
"Your second master has such a mind, I can't help but appreciate it!"
"The little one kowtowed to my second master!"
As soon as he heard Emperor Yongping's words, Zhao Rui immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Emperor Yongping innocently.
As a result, while Zhao Rui was recognized as a simple person by Emperor Yongping, he also received an honest evaluation.
This move is in response to the saying "a gentleman can be bullied".
However, Zhao Rui's current convenience has also put a shackle on himself.
Because he was labeled as a simple and honest person in the eyes of Emperor Yongping, he must continue to be honest and honest in everything he says and does in the future.
Otherwise, once Emperor Yongping remembered today's events, he would probably feel that he had been deceived.
At that time, Zhao Rui will not be able to escape from the crime of bullying the king.
……
Anshun County, Lingshui Village, Lao Xu's family.
Old Man Xu no longer has the heart to care about his little uncle who has a lot of eyes, and now he has a big head.
When he bought the fake jade night lion for Xu Laosan in the horse market, Old Man Xu agreed with the other party that he would send a good horse to the door, and now, this person came and brought two handsome and extraordinary horses, as well as a very beautiful foal.
The foal is snow-white, and it is not an ordinary color.
Compared with Xu Laosan's fake Jade Night Lion, if this foal grows up, it will be a proper Jade Night Lion.
Three horses, all very good horses.
With Old Man Xu's critical eye, he couldn't find anything wrong.
But now in this ghost weather, there are already three horses at home, and if you have three more horses, you can't afford to raise them!
"Dad, buy it!"
"Buy it!"
In the face of such a miraculous two horses, Boss Xu and the second brother Xu were not calm.
This kind of good horse is better than the horses ridden by those people who came from Xu Mansion before.
"Brother, I sent the horse here as agreed, you can't help it!"
Seeing that Old Man Xu hesitated, the horse market merchant immediately became anxious, "If you don't want to, I won't be able to live!" ”
"Yes, yes, I can't do it?"
Old man Xu hurriedly spoke, he still has this bit of honesty in life.
In the end, two large horses and one foal were sold for three hundred and fifty taels.
"Haha, Lao Tzu also has a horse!"
When the horse started, Xu Lao Er was the first to smile, and he didn't care that his horse was not equipped with a saddle, so he turned over and got on the horse, clamped his legs, and urged the horse to run.
"Fool melon!"
Seeing that Xu Lao Er was urging the horse to run away with great interest, Old Man Xu didn't want to say anything.
He just waited for Xu Lao Er to call in the middle of the night to see the excitement. Without a saddle and without pedals to ride a horse, this horse is not something that ordinary people can handle.
Anyway, when Mr. Xu was learning to ride a horse, he played like this, and that night, he felt that both legs were going to be wasted, sore and painful, especially on the inner thighs, with a hot stinging pain.
……
Uncle Lu came out of the yard slowly after Old Man Xu bought these three horses, and his eyes fell on the pure white foal that Old Man Xu bought.
"This horse is good, suitable for Fubao's little girl!"
"Master, you think it's good, right?"
Old Man Xu smiled quite proudly, feeling that he had made a very good deal.
Uncle Lu glanced at Old Man Xu and said lightly: "What are you proud of?" This horse, you think it can be obtained by any horse market merchant? ”
"You mean you mean that someone sent this horse specifically?"
"Isn't that what anyone with a discerning eye can see?"
“……”
Old Man Xu was speechless in an instant.
After a while, he said faintly, "Master, it's not so mysterious, is it?" This horse market merchant I happened to meet in the county seat of the horse market, at that time it was just a temporary horse market, who is so powerful, can anyone still be unpredictable? ”
"Unpredictable prophets are impossible!"
"But how do you know that this horse market merchant can't be someone else's subordinate?"
This situation is not impossible.
Old Man Xu didn't squeak at all.
But who might be behind this horse market businessman, it's not something that Old Man Xu can guess.
However, Old Man Xu didn't guess, because there was no need for this.
Whoever was behind it, his family got three good horses, and this was the result.
And, is there any point in finding out who's behind it? With this spare time, it is better to think about the problem of how to feed the family with three more horses.
In the past, the family got a carriage business, and later for the dragon boat race, the carriage was sold and subleased to the father-in-law of the two sons.
As a result, when the drought came, the carriage business deteriorated, and finally had to be temporarily suspended.
If there is no business, there is no income, and the two in-laws of Old Man Xu can't afford to raise these two horses, so they can only suspend the trade and send the carriage and horses back.
Two horses pulling a cart, plus Xu Laosan's pseudo-photographed Jade Night Lion, now there are three more horses, six horses at home, just to feed the horses beans, is an expense of the boss.
And that's not even counting the artificial.
"When is it raining?"
Old Man Xu is really worried.
Before, in order to prepare fresh forage for the three horses in the family, Mr. Xu had to take his son into the mountains early every morning and run a long way to get some fresh forage.
It used to be three horses, but now it's six.
Especially these three horses later, they are all really good horses.
If this good horse is not eaten well, it will also be ruined.
Old Man Xu was worried, but Fu Bao was rejoicing, because she saw the pure white foal.
The whole body is snow-white, without a single stray hair.
A pair of smart big eyes, when they look at Fu Bao, they seem to be able to speak.
"Daddy's little blessing,
