Chapter 219: To live, people have to keep moving forward
The man was still chattering: "Auntie, it's cheap!" A hundred liters of grain will be yours! If you think it's too expensive, do you pay for it? ”
Ignoring the man, Lin Tao glanced at Xiao Wu.
In fact, she can also understand why Xiao Wu is so afraid.
Let's not talk about playing since he was a child, Xiao Wu has not been welcomed. After that, the original owner sold Xiao Wu to the Wang family.
even said something to Xiao Wu, marry the Wang family, be born a member of the Wang family, and die is a ghost of the Wang family.
Otherwise, with the pungent energy of the original owner, then Wang Laifu dared to beat Xiao Wu to death?
Difficult mother-in-law, which man is not afraid?
What's more, there are still four Niu brothers-in-law, but if he meets a distressed girl, Wang Laifu is afraid that he will be beaten to the point that he will be beaten halfway long ago.
Xiao Wu This is habitual thinking, and he is afraid of getting used to it.
"Let's go." took Xiao Wu's hand and walked away.
At this time, Li Wumei stared at the hand holding her, and her mood was extremely complicated.
has grown so big, and in my memory, this is the first time her mother has led her.
When she was a child, she was very envious of other people's mothers, especially curious about what it was like to be held by her mother.
Originally...... So warm.
Behind her, the man was still yelling at her: "Auntie, is eighty liters good?" ”
The more you go to the place where the cattle are sold, the fewer and fewer people there are.
In the end, there were no contacts! The stalls on both sides are also empty.
Lin Tao's heart is bottomless, shouldn't there be no one to sell livestock?
Fortunately, when I walked to the southeast corner, I finally saw a cattle barn with a few cows.
When the stall owner saw her, he greeted her with a smile.
It's just that I didn't expect the stall owner to open his mouth: "Auntie, are you here to sell cattle?" Your cow is quite fat, and it can be sold for a good price. ”
As he spoke, he touched and patted the cow cub.
"I'm here to buy livestock!"
As soon as her voice fell, the stall owner stepped aside in embarrassment.
Lin Tao glanced at it, to be honest, the cow is thin, and the horse is even thinner.
The shape of the bones on the horse's belly, visible to the naked eye!
What's the use of buying such a skinny horse?
She planned to take a look at other houses, but she didn't think that the stall owner was also shrewd, as if she saw her intentions, and said: "Don't look at it, Auntie, in the market, there are still a few cows and horses here for me, and other people's families have either sold them for meat or killed them for themselves." In these days, if you have money, you may not be able to buy food, and what you can eat will be killed and eaten early. Really, believe it or not, take a look, I'll be sure you'll be back in a while. ”
Lin Tao looked around, not to mention, those livestock sheds were really empty.
There was not even a single footprint in the snow in front of the barn, and it looked empty for a long time.
"How do you sell this horse?" Lin Tao asked.
"Sixty taels isn't too expensive, is it? This is a grown Malaysia! Let the camel pull and ride, and it is very well tamed. ”
The stall owner patted the horse's neck, and the horse shook as if it couldn't bear it and was about to fall.
Lin Tao patted his head, really, sixty taels to buy such a thing, he didn't say whether it was worth it or not, he just asked himself if it was stupid.
"What about the cow?"
Although the oxen pulled the cart slower, it seemed that the oxen were stronger than the horses.
"Ox Eighty." After speaking, the stall owner stepped forward and said in a suppressed voice: "This cow has more meat than horses, and there is enough oil and water." ”
Lin Tao narrowed his eyes, you must know that cattle are used as farming tools here, and the government clearly stipulates that they are not allowed to be killed and eaten.
Unless the cow dies of old age and then reports to the inside, it can be eaten.
If someone accuses you of slaughtering a cow, it will be judged as murder.
She fell into deep thought, and Xiao Wu was puzzled: "Sixty horses, eighty cows?" Crazy? The people who sold in front of them are only two, three, two, two! When did animals become more valuable than humans? ”
"You're not right! Now in this great calamity, who would want to eat human flesh if they have a little silver! What's more, if that person buys it back, you have to add a pair of chopsticks and bowls! Who has so much food that they need someone to help them eat? Right? There is no comparison! ”
Xiao Wu closed his mouth and said nothing.
In these years, a living person is not as valuable as an animal!
"Four horses, two hundred taels." Lin Tao said.
The stall owner paused for a moment, and instantly smiled. Two hundred taels! Not to mention now, even before the drought, that is not a figure that ordinary people can come up with!
A pair of eyes looked at the little old lady in front of him.
I really didn't see that a person who didn't even have a jacket on his body could take out two hundred taels!
It shouldn't be! Could it be that which house has changed the purchase of the mother-in-law?
"It's done, it's done! Need a small one to be delivered to your house? "If it's really a mother in a house, you have to please!
If you win the favor, you may be able to find something to eat!
"The little ancestors started to tame horses, raise cattle and make livestock, those who are seriously ill and have small pains, and the small ones will be doctors, and the old lady's house, if there is a lack of a handlebar or something, will you eat a small meal?"
Looking at the stall owner's flattering look, Lin Tao shook his head.
Take out two gold ingots from your satchel and stuff them over.
The stall owner was dumbfounded.
"What are you doing? Pull it out! Lin Tao urged.
Only then did the stall owner come to his senses, and in response, he pulled the four horses out of the barn.
Lin Tao looked at it carefully one by one, it was nothing to lose weight, but don't buy an injured or sick one, if you can't pull the car, it will be a big loss.
She was checking it here, and the stall owner was urging her.
"Old lady, do you see clearly? If you're okay, I'll go first. ”
Two hundred taels! Walking around like this, what is the whole thing that was robbed by someone?
He was really convinced by this little old lady, and he carried two hundred taels in his arms, as if he was nothing.
In these years, you can't have food on your body, and you can't have money on your body, otherwise you don't know how to die!
Lin Tao nodded, and the stall owner dragged a few cows and ran away like a ghost.
In that way, it's like you're going to die if you run slowly. Lin Tao was inexplicable.
Lin Tao pulled four horses, and Xiao Wu led the cow cub and walked out.
When I came to the entrance of the market, the whole area suddenly became silent.
They all stared at the two of them.
Xiao Wu suddenly grabbed her hand: "Mother, he, their eyes, it's so scary." ”
Lin Tao glanced around, but as if there was nothing to do, he walked towards the entrance of the market.
On the way back, she and Xiao Wu didn't speak for a long time.
Come to think of it, Xiao Wu must be like her, with a heavy heart!
Especially Xiao Wu, after seeing the lactating woman and the little baby, more or less, he will remember the sins he suffered in the Wang family before.
But the world is like this, she Lin Tao is alone, and she can't change anything!
The only thing you can do is to live your life well!
He turned his head to look at Xiao Wu and sighed.
"The past is gone! You can not forget, but don't let yourself sink into the past. To live, you have to keep moving forward! ”
Xiao Wu sniffed, and his eyes, which had been blurred before, also had a focal length at this time.
"Yes! Daughter remembered! In the future, my daughter must be like her mother and work hard to live a good life! ”
Lin Tao nodded with satisfaction.
It may take a long time to change a person, but the most important thing is to change the mentality.
