After returning home, Xu Xuezhen sat in front of the window and looked at the blooming flowers in the yard. recalled the scene I saw the two of them talking with a smile just now.

raised his hand to cover his chest, biting his lip tightly, and his usually dignified eyes were surging with a dull depression at this time.

Thinking of that Senior Sister An, who took the exam for the junior three yuan in a row, not only is she good at learning, but she can also live so freely.

In the academy, it is easy to get the attention of the mountain chief, and personally send someone to send it to her, and the wooden sign for the reading building that others can't yearn for.

is also spoiled by her own teacher, so many senior brothers take care of her, and even when she goes to Songjiang Mansion to listen to the lectures of the Great Confucian, she only heard about it afterwards.

And this ordinary female student from a peasant family can listen to the lectures of Confucianism with the help of her teachers and brothers, if nothing else, this township examination will definitely be on the list.

Xu Xuezhen didn't think that she could afford to go to Songjiang Mansion for a study tour in the early summer.

At this time, Xu Xuezhen, who was alone at this time, could no longer suppress her envy and jealousy, and the distorted expression on her face was similar to the original dignified atmosphere.

Raise your hand and sweep down a leafy potted plant on the windowsill.

Suddenly, he stood up and walked towards the courtyard where his family lived.

On the street, An Chuxia and Mu Tan came to the place where the cattle were sold, and walked directly to the place where the horses were sold.

At this time, there was a middle-aged person who specialized in helping people pick up livestock, and they came up to ask An Chuxia if the two needed help.

They are very familiar with the quality of these cattle and horses, and they can see the age of the animals, whether they are sick or not.

In the end, An Chuxia and Mu Tan still asked an older middle-aged man to help each of them choose a horse.

Mu Tan got the news very early, and most of the good horses here have not been selected yet.

The Chinese walked into the herd of horses and pulled out a black horse with a shiny coat among hundreds of horses; Then he went in and picked out a brown horse and pulled it to the two of them.

He said to An Chuxia and Mu Tan: "These two horses are about three or four years old, and they have just come of age, and they are healthy and strong and have been used for a long time. ”

Mu Tan also nodded after seeing it, which can be regarded as recognition.

He turned around and asked An Chuxia to pick one of the two horses he liked.

In her previous life, An Chuxia also went to the horse farm and rode a horse, and she also loved horses very much.

An Chuxia did not shirk Mu Tan's humility, she had long been in love with the tall and strong black horse.

However, the price of a good horse is also expensive, An Chuxia just saw someone buy an ordinary jujube red horse, and spent forty-five taels of silver.

And the two horses that the Chinese chose for them.

The horse dealer offered a hundred and fifty taels.

An Chuxia didn't know much about the price of horses, so she looked at Mu Tan and the middle man next to her.

Looking at the calm expressions on their faces, you can see that I am afraid that there is also a big difference between horses and horses.

The forty-five taels of silver jujube red horse just now is obviously one lap smaller than the two horses selected by the Chinese people, and the comparison between the two is not so strong, and the coat color is not as pure as these two horses.

In the end, after bargaining with the bearded horse dealer, An Chuxia and Mu Tan bought the two horses at a price of one hundred and thirty-eight taels.

gave the Chinese two taels of silver as an intermediary fee.

As soon as An Chuxia and Mu Tan walked out of the cattle and horse market with the horses they bought, they were stopped by a dark-skinned man and asked if they wanted to buy a carriage.

An Chuxia and Mu Tan glanced at each other.

Mu Tan nodded to the man, and the two followed, not far from the cattle and horse market, where they specialized in building ox carts and carriages.

After some selection, An Chuxia and Mu Tan both bought a carriage that was both spacious and sturdy.

With the assistance of the boss, the two horses were put on the carriage.

It was obviously the first time that the horses had been put on the carriage, and they were not used to it.

The owner of the carriage shop, who was already strange, was holding a small leather whip and pulling the reins in his hand, and quickly packed up after getting the permission of An Chuxia and Mu Tan.

The two carriages cost nearly twenty taels of silver, and An Chuxia now knows why carriages are rarely seen in Qingshi Town.

Not to mention the sturdy horses they bought, even ordinary thinner horses, the lowest price was more than thirty taels, and the cheapest carriage also cost as much as five or six taels of silver.

Like the kind of wood they bought, the good carriages and wide carriages are about ten taels, which is really not something that ordinary people or families can afford.

On the way back, An Chuxia, who was driving a carriage for the first time, was almost taken to a ditch by the roadside by a disobedient black horse.

In the end, Mu Tan, who was not at ease, had no choice but to tie the black horse to the back of his carriage, and An Chuxia had to take the carriage driven by Mu Tan back home.

When passing through the village, the villagers looked curiously at the horse-drawn carriage tied together and the wooden sandalwood driving the cart.

It's just that Mu Tan has always given people a very cold feeling in the village, and many villagers swallowed back the words they wanted to gossip in his indifferent eyes.

In the evening, An Jinchen and Runsheng returned home, and An Chuxia had already prepared the meal.

After eating, An Chuxia raised his head and said to An Jinchen: "Brother, I bought a carriage and tethered it to the backyard now, you have time to find someone to build a horse shed." ”

An Jinchen and Runsheng were stunned for a moment, and when they reacted, the two stood up and strode towards the backyard.

There are very few families in the village who have ox carts, let alone horse-drawn carts.

In their image, things like horse-drawn carriages, which are only used by large families, are now in their backyards.

Can this not make An Jinchen excited, Runsheng is curious.

The two of them walked to the backyard and saw a black horse tethered to grazing there, and a carriage next to it against the wall.

They excitedly walked up to the black horse and wanted to touch it, but the horse shook its head with its nose and put it aside.

Even so, the tall and sturdy black horse conquered the two men, and the rare two almost slept with him in the backyard at night.

After running in with the big black horse for two days, Runsheng couldn't help it, and drove the black horse-drawn carriage and An Jinchen to sell braised meat.

Originally, it took two hours a day to travel, but today it took less than an hour to reach Yunshui Wharf.

The two of them couldn't help but sigh, this carriage should have been bought a long time ago, and they didn't have to spend so much time on the way back and forth.

Runsheng drove the carriage away, and An Chuxia had to take a book and lead the old cow abandoned by two guys who liked the new and hated the old to the foot of the mountain to graze.

The grass at the foot of the mountain is very lush, and the buffalo that has finally been resting is happy to watch the food with their cheeks puffed out on both sides.

An found a flat stone in the early summer and moved it to the shade of a tree to sit and read, and after a while, he would go to the provincial capital to take the township test

She tried to relax her mind during this time, and did not devote herself to intense study as before.

Only by adjusting the body and mind to the best state, can you give full play to your best level in the next nine days and six nights.

An Chuxia saw the cows grazing honestly over there, so he set his eyes on the travelogue in his hand again.

The author's descriptions of the mountains and rivers in various places, the customs and customs, are vivid and real, and they are deeply attracted by An Chuxia for a while.

Even when the danger was approaching, An Chuxia only had time to raise his arm to block it.

Then he rolled to the side and quickly stood up.

The two big men who suddenly appeared here saw An Chuxia's embarrassed appearance, and their mouths let out a rude laugh.

One of them, a sturdy man with a fleshy face, showed an obscene light in his eyes, and said with an unclean mouth: "The little girl reacts quite quickly, but I don't know what it tastes like." ”

At this time, standing next to him, the man with a long face and small eyes whispered to him: "Don't do anything superfluous, abolish her right hand, and we will take the money and leave."

If you are encountered, be careful of the lawsuit.

Are you afraid that there will be no women to play with if you have money? ”

Hearing this, the face of the gangster was full of regret, but he still listened to these words.

The two of them took the dagger in their hands and walked towards An Chuxia, who bent down to pick up a wooden stick from the ground.

An Chuxia took the wrist-thick wooden stick in his hand, nodded with satisfaction, raised his head, squinted his peach blossom eyes, and looked at the two with a smile.

The two gangsters were stunned when they saw the expressions on her faces, even at this time, they didn't think that An Chuxia would pose any danger to them.
