The front yard of this academy was quiet, and in the small garden, only the rustle of bamboo leaves could be heard, and there was not even the sound of crickets chirping.

Just when Song Lingxue was bored, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind, and she didn't think about avoiding it, she still sat comfortably with the old god.

There were two thirteen or fourteen-year-old boys who came, one was dressed as a student, and the other was dressed as a scholar, but Song Lingxue saw at a glance that these two were Xibei goods, she was a little funny, she used to watch TV and always wondered, the heroine changed her clothes and hairstyle, and no one recognized that it was a woman dressed as a man, and now it seems that the TV series can only be a TV series.

These two women dressed as men, with slender figures, good faces, fair skin and graceful posture, no matter how you look at them, they are all girls.

Song Lingxue was sitting in the pavilion, and the two of them happened to come from the path on the side of the bamboo forest, so they didn't see her for a while.

"Miss, let's come to the front with such a swagger, if the master finds out, we will be punished for stealing the female ring again." The little girl dressed as a scholar said with a sad face.

"I've inquired, my father is out to visit friends, let's go out from the main gate openly, Grandpa Liu has always loved me, and he won't sue." Another young lady dressed as a scholar smiled and said indifferently.

"But Mr. Xu is here, and the doorman Xiaoding, he just came, who knows if he will leak his mouth." The little girl continued.

"Grandpa Liu said that Xiaoding loves candy, and it just so happened that when my uncle's eldest cousin came over a few days ago, didn't he bring me a nest of silk candy, and told him not to be angry, and when he came back, he would bring him some."

"Wosi Candy! So the expensive one, give it to him? The little girl was a little reluctant.

"Who asked my father to let the door of the back house be locked, except for my mother's mother Liu, everyone else has no key, we can't go to her to open the door, we can only open to the front, and I can't bear to let the child catch the wolf, I have to go out in the future, give him something to eat, let him keep his mouth shut." As for Mr. Xu, don't worry, he has never been nosy. ”

"Huh? I'm going to go out in the future......"

"In another year, my mother should ask me for advice from Mama Xi, saying that her grandmother also taught her like this back then, and I can't be less, what do you call it, I won't go out to play this year, don't think about it in the future!"

"Then we need to come back early!"

"That's ...... nature"

The master and servant were talking over there, and they didn't expect anyone to be in the pavilion here, so when they walked lightly through the garden and went to the hanging flower gate in the front yard, they didn't notice Song Lingxue who was sitting quietly.

This also reduces the embarrassment of being found that she is eavesdropping, although she didn't mean to, Song Lingxue held her chest, this deep lady yearns for the outside world, and sneaks out with a maid dressed as a man, should you be so familiar.

But this was just a small episode, Song Lingxue was bored and watched a short play, and after waiting less than a stick of incense, the little doorman went and returned, and called her to the front.

Zhou Bing had already negotiated with the middle-aged scribe, that is, Mr. Xu, and also registered for Shi Qing, and came to take the exam half a month later, and then decided whether to admit or not.

Song Lingxue was also clear about this, but she wasn't worried about Shi Qing's ability, so she just asked a few words and didn't say more, but talked about her previous plan.

"You want to buy a donkey?" Zhou Bing listened to Song Lingxue's words, and also knew that there was only a cattle market in Huaihua Town, and there were few other livestock for sale, so he could only go to the livestock market in the county to see.

"Yes, there are many times when the family has to go to the town to do some small business, and it is not very convenient to always wait for the ox cart of the seventh master, and in the future, Shi Qing will come to the county seat to go to school, and he can't rent a carriage every time, it is too expensive, buy a donkey and make a covered car, although it is not as good as a carriage, but it can also be a lot more convenient." Song Lingxue has also been thinking about it for a long time, the carriage is not affordable for the time being, and it is not practical to pull things often, and it is not far away, the donkey cart is enough to go to the county seat, and it is a lot cheaper.

"Why don't you go and see it today?" Zhou Bing proposed.

Song Lingxue was stunned: "I can also go?" ”

"As long as you don't like the smell there!" Zhou Bing didn't have too much to worry about, in the past, except for the maids, they were all beautiful girls, and the most important rules, even the occasional spring outing and autumn hunting were all far away from the paddock of the coquettish guests, and the male guests were clearly distinguished. Now that he has become Yao Dazhuang, he can be regarded as following the local customs, but he doesn't care so much.

The daughters-in-law and mothers-in-law in this rural area, most of the time are similar to the men, working in the fields and going to the market to buy and sell things, but there are not so many taboos.

Song Lingxue was very excited, she followed her grandmother to their livestock market when she was a child, and at that time her grandmother's house was to buy a donkey, but her grandfather went to the early house, and there was only one daughter in her mother's house, and there was no man, so her grandmother asked the uncle next door to negotiate the price on her behalf.

The uncle is a real person, and he has to be called the third aunt of his grandmother in terms of seniority, and he is also very enthusiastic, and when he got there, he helped his grandmother palm his eyes and took a fancy to a donkey, Song Lingxue didn't hear him negotiate the price with the donkey seller, but the hands of the two of them made a few strokes under the placket, and the deal was made, which made her very curious.

Later, I heard my grandmother say that the livestock market is like that, and in order to prevent the sale from failing, the two parties leaked their reserve price for others to hear, and they could not negotiate with others later.

The livestock market was in the West Side, so the two of them didn't have to walk long to get there.

It's much bigger than the cattle market in Huaihua Town, and it's clean and doesn't smell too much, and all kinds of livestock are divided into areas, which is very orderly.

And there is also a lot of buying and selling economy here, that is, to help buyers and sellers who can't bargain as middlemen, and once the sale is completed, they can get a small amount of hard work.

Zhou Bing naturally won't bargain, and he is okay with watching horses, but not at watching donkeys, even if he has all the memories of Yao Dazhuang, let him bargain with people hand in hand, he can't do it.

simply used the reason that he had never bought a donkey and was afraid of losing money, saying that if he found an agent, it would only cost more than a dozen yuan anyway, and it would save time and effort, so Song Lingxue did not object.

However, this agent didn't need the two of them to look for it at all, as soon as they came to the fence on the donkey's side, several agents surrounded him, Zhou Bing picked a middle-aged man who looked honest and honest, and the rest of them left disappointed when they saw this, looking for the next target.
