There are tears in the eyes of the old herdsman, these hundreds of sheep have always been the source of livelihood for the whole family.

"My husband was beaten to death last year while grabbing a meadow, leaving me and my son and daughter-in-law behind. At the beginning of the year, my daughter-in-law had a difficult birth, and finally gave birth to a grandson, but she was gone; When the child was full of moon, he was taken away by wolves, and my son rushed there, but fell into the valley and was lame. ”

"Well-wisher, if you want to take over my sheep, the old woman has only one request, to give the old woman and her son a place to stay."

Shen Ru looked at the furrow on the old man's face, and was very emotional in his heart.

There is a saying that bad luck picks on the hard-working people, natural disasters and man-made disasters, so that the original family has become what it is now.

"Auntie, can I take a look at all of this?"

Shen Ru proposed, this is just a small pasture, only a few hundred sheep, she expected, even bigger.

"Yes, as long as the girl doesn't think the old woman is slow."

The old woman stood up, and Shen Ru also found that her walking posture was high and low, bent her waist, looking at the vicissitudes of life.

Walking out of the yard of the old woman's house, not far away is the sheepfold, and now, all the sheep have been released to graze, but obviously this sheepfold has not been cleaned for a long time, and there is a very strong smell.

Shen Ru is looking at whether there is still the possibility of expanding this sheepfold, and whether the site can build some more houses.

"Dunzhu, what do you think?"

Shen Ru asked.

"Sister Shen, ask me?"

"Yes, what if I let you take care of the sheep here, and let you recruit troops again?"

Dunzhu was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Sister Shen, of course I can, let alone herding sheep, even if there is another batch of horses, I can." ”

Huang Yunru on the side looked at Dunzhu, well, I felt that Shen Ru had a new sister, and she was a little jealous.

"Shen Ru, if you are short of manpower, tell me, I have a large family, whether you want to shepherd sheep or train horses, I can find the right person for you."

Shen Ru glanced at Huang Yunru and guessed Huang Yunru's careful thoughts.

"Dunzhu, the Huang family has a big ranch in Liangzhou, and Yunru's equestrian skills are also extremely high, so you might as well learn from each other another day."

Huang Yunru has this intention, she likes to make friends who are evenly matched.

"Okay, Sister Huang, Dunzhu can't do anything else, but he also grew up on the back of a pony."

"Who isn't?"

Huang Yunru and Dunzhu looked at each other, and they both looked unconvinced.

Shen Ru smiled and said nothing, she looked around, and she was quite satisfied with this place.

The grassland is public, and the herdsmen here will graze on the grassland, and Shen Ru takes a fancy to the flat land.

Behind the old woman's house was a wasteland of loess and gravel, and she would like to enlarge the sheepfold and raise some more horses.

If the house is to be expanded, it will naturally have to be expanded, and it will definitely not be Dunzhu alone at that time.

"Auntie, I can buy the sheep here, including your house, the vacant land in front of the house and behind the house, I want everything. Of course, you and your son can live forever, and in the future, when the ranch on my side grows bigger, your family can always be there. ”

Shen Ru said to the old woman seriously, "Where is your son, this matter, you have to talk to your son about it!" ”

"He's grazing, and it's going to be dark when he comes back."

The old woman was already moved to see that Shen Ruyi was so big and could let them live here all the time.

"That's it, then I'll come back tomorrow, auntie, I only have one request, since I've already taken a fancy to it, don't talk to anyone else, okay?"

Shen Ru was worried that someone would cut off his beard.

"Girl, my family has a total of 800 sheep, I don't know how much you charge?"

Shen Ru was stunned for a moment, then looked at Huang Yunru, how much is a sheep, she doesn't know!

Huang Yunru doesn't know, how can she care about this!

Still Dunzhu, he said: "The sheep on the grassland, if it is used in silver, it is generally the price of one or two or three thousand, but most of the time we exchange it for prey. ”

"Auntie, then I will pay 1,500 taels of silver to buy all this, what do you think?"

Fifteen hundred taels, the old woman's eyes widened.

With this money, I can go to the city to buy a few big houses.

"Girl, we're ...... It's not worth the money! ”

"Auntie, since I have spoken, I think you are worth it. At that time, the deed will have to be transferred, the written note must be established, and it will have to be registered at the yamen. Shen Ru said seriously.

"You can stay here all the time, but you must know that this side belongs to me, and you can discuss it again when you wait for your son."

Shen Ru said that in the future, she can take care of the suffering of their orphans and widows, but she has to say what she should say, and she doesn't want to get the silver in the future, and she can't figure out her status.

The temptation of the silver made the old woman's heart very excited, and her hands trembled.

But Shen Ru's words also fell heavily on her head, and if she lived here in the future, she would see nothing that was her own, and she would inevitably feel uncomfortable.

"You and your son's legs are inconvenient, if you still want to do things, I will also ask people to arrange things for you at that time, and you will be paid as much as you should be paid."

Shen Ru continued, "Auntie, to be honest, I can also find other ranches in Liangzhou with the money I paid. ”

"I hope everyone is calm, you and your son think about it, and this time tomorrow, I will come over with the contract."

"The girl is kind, the old woman is not confused, when my son comes back, the old woman will talk to him well."

"Okay, let's go back first."

Shen Ru thought about going home and asking her father to make a deed, she didn't see the old woman's excited look, but she hoped that the transaction between the two sides would be done calmly with each other.

"Mrs. Yu, don't let people talk about it anymore, there are not many people like my friend who is so rich and good!"

Before Huang Yunru left, she didn't forget to emphasize to the old woman.

It was not too early, and Shen Ru was not good to visit Huang's house again, so he said goodbye to Huang Yunru and made an appointment to come over the next day.

"Sister Shen, if I take care of these sheep at that time, won't I be able to live in your house?"

On the way back, Dunzhu asked.

"Well, it's still early, and when the big mansion is built here and there are more people, I'll think about these things. Donzhu, do you have the confidence to do a good job? ”

"Of course I am confident, Sister Shen, I will definitely be able to do a good job!"

followed Shen Ru to see the stone candle workshop, and knew that there would be pastures and cotton fields in the future, and Dunzhu's eyes were full of worship when he looked at Shen Ru!

"Sister Shen, I think in the future, you must be richer than Yan Gongzi."

Shen Ru was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

"Dunzhu, accept your auspicious words, this is what I have always thought."
