Chapter 41: Deer Saddle

Jiang Cheng brought his two younger sisters to the second brother, and when he saw that he was about to sell out of a basket full of water chestnuts, he asked, "Don't let me stay and help." ”

"No, you don't." Jiang Quan waved his hand and said proudly: "I'm busy alone." ”

It was the first time for him to do business alone, and he did it so smoothly, he felt a sense of accomplishment, and naturally he didn't want his eldest brother to get involved again.

Jiang Cheng handed a glutinous rice green ball to his younger brother: "This is left to you by Yingbao." ”

Jiang Quan was not polite, took it and peeled off the mulberry leaves, bit off half of it, and said to the little cousin with a smile: "Go back and buy a small whistle for you." ”

Sakuraho: ......

She didn't want to blow the whistle.

When she came back from the set, Sakura stood under the apple tree and was distracted.

It's been almost two years since the apple trees were planted, and both of them are already a foot tall, but they don't bloom when they just grow, which makes Sakura very depressed.

What went wrong?

Why don't you wait for Daddy to come back and ask someone who knows how to take a look?

Alas, let's ignore it for now, let's talk about it when we move to Nanshan, now the first thing is to think about making more money.

At noon, Jiang Quan came back from selling water chestnuts, poured the money bag on the table, and counted the money with his eldest brother.

"A total of five hundred and sixty texts, hahahaha, I got rich." Jiang Quan was so happy that he couldn't see his teeth, and he crossed his fingers and began to divide the money.

"These water chestnuts were found by Sakura Bao and Dani Erni together, so let's divide them between the three of them."

Jiang Quan pulled half of the money out.

Li Dao and Li He also helped pick water chestnuts wrapped in pu leaves, so they gave each of them twenty ...... Ten words. ”

Jiang Quan drew another twenty wen out.

"Give Grandpa and Grandma another fifty wen."

and drew fifty more wen.

"I'll also give A-Niang fifty wen, and the rest is mine, hahahaha."

Jiang Quan took the remaining one hundred and sixty Wen into his arms and smiled.

As soon as he looked up, he saw his eldest brother looking at him with a dark face.

"Mine?" Jiang Cheng asked.

"Yours?" Jiang Quan wrinkled his nose, "But you didn't do anything?" ”

Jiang Cheng: "I counted the money." ”

Jiang Quan: ......

Remorseful want to pound the wall.

Pouted, barely counted out ten articles from his share and pushed it over, gritted his teeth and said, "Here you go!" Count, money, fee! "Humph!

Jiang Quan quickly put his money into his pocket, and put everything on the table into the money bag, and then went out to greet Dani, and went to the second uncle and third uncle's house together to find Erni Yingbao to divide the money.

Fourteen-year-old Jiang Cheng didn't think that the money was short, so he picked up the ten pieces in the palm of his hand and locked them in the cabinet.

Following

Sakura put a rope around Yoyo's neck, touched its head and said, "Yoyo, I'll take you to the town, you have to be obedient and don't run around." ”

Yoyo looked at the little master with big watery eyes.

"Don't panic when you see a stranger, I'm always there for you." Sakura patted it on the neck.

Yo You bowed her head and arched the little master, and rubbed her head again.

Sakura Bao understood and took out a handful of Wuding Zhi and fed it.

Jiang Saburo heard that his daughter was going to the town to match the deer saddle, so he immediately put down everything and wanted to take her there.

"Your little doll will be bullied, just take Yoyo with you."

The deer of his own family is majestic, half a man tall, and the antlers on his head have begun to sprout, and it is estimated that it will grow into a hideous deer fork next year.

Such a big live deer can be worth twenty or thirty taels of silver when sold to the county seat, and many ill-intentioned people may take risks for such a large sum of money.

Therefore, I must not let the little doll of my daughter go, even if she is accompanied by her second cousin.

Yingbao shook his head: "Yoyo will be scared when you go to a crowded place, I'll be obedient with it, Dad, I'll go with you." ”

"That's good." Jiang Saburo picked up his daughter and prepared to put it in the back basket.

"Dad, I'll ride Yoyo."

When Sakura Po trains Yoyo, she will occasionally ride it for a walk, so as long as Yoyo doesn't run, she can sit on it steadily.

Jiang Saburo put his daughter on the back of the fawn again and advised: "Be careful, don't fall down." ”

"I won't fall." Sakura sat firmly on the back of the deer, led by his father, and walked towards the town.

Walk across the stone arch bridge, pass through Xichen Village, and follow the dirt road to the official road.

The official road passes through the middle of the town, leading to the county seat of Qinchuan at one end and the direction of Yuzhou at the other.

When the father and daughter came to the harness shop, the tall and mighty deer stunned the two guys in an instant.

Even the shopkeeper ran out, and was amazed, "I have lived to be fifty years old, and it is the first time I have seen such a tall deer, so it is no wonder that you need to wear a saddle." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned the young man to come and measure the size.

Yoyo saw a stranger approaching, and stepped on his hooves uneasily, hiding behind Sakura.

Sakura soothed it, and took out a handful of wheat from her pocket and fed it to its mouth.

Yo You quieted down at this time, and lowered her head to lick the dozen grains of wheat in the palm of the little master's hand.

The young man handed the recorded size to the shopkeeper, and stood by and looked curiously at a doll and a deer.

The shopkeeper touched the back of the deer and said to Jiang Sanlang: "Although your deer is big, its spine is unstable and it can't bear weight, so the cowhide saddle is not suitable, why don't you pick a sheepskin to make a pair?" ”

Jiang Saburo nodded: "Okay, this deer was not originally for adults to ride, but the children in the family occasionally ride it, and please make sure that the shopkeeper does it safely." ”

"No problem." The shopkeeper pondered and rummaged through the house for materials.

Jiang Saburo waited for a while and asked, "When will you be able to do a good job?" ”

If it's too long, he and his daughter won't wait.

The shopkeeper took out a few skins and threw them on the ground, saying, "I'll cut it now, soon, in an hour or two at most." ”

Jiang Saburo looked at the sun, it was about the beginning of the day, but he could wait.

He sat down on the stool that his buddy had brought to him, while Sakura looked around.

There are no shops near the harness shop, only a straw shed not far away, and there are stalls selling pork under the shed.

By this time the pork had been sold out, and the butcher and his son were packing up their things to go home.

Tu Da took off the iron hook hanging on the wooden frame, threw it into the big basket, and put a few knives in it, and then picked up the basket.

His fifteen-year-old son Tu Xiong didn't want to go back, and said, "Dad, you go back first, I have something to do, I'll go back later." ”

Tu Da glared at his son and warned: "Don't run around with your fox friends and dog friends, if you cause any more trouble, Lao Tzu will beat you to death." ”

"What can you do?" Tu Xiong touched his nose: "I'll go to Chen Thirty and go into the mountains to hunt birds, what trouble can I cause?" ”

Tu Da snorted and walked away with his burden.

When Slaughter Bear saw his father walking away, he smiled and shouted at the back of a haystack: "I haven't come out yet." ”

From behind the haystack came two young men of seventeen or eighteen, one tall and one short, with cow tendon slingshots pinned to their waists.

"Shall we go to Beishan?" Bear Tu asked.

The tall and thin man had a knife face, and he smiled and said, "What Beishan are you going to, you look over there..."

Tu Xiong turned his head to look at it and asked suspiciously, "What are you looking at?" ”

"A deer." Knife slashed his face and smiled: "So you can't see a big deer pestle there?" ”

"I've seen it earlier, what are you doing?"

"Guess?" The knife-faced arm rested on the shoulder of the pockmarked dwarf companion, and his eyes flashed.

Tu Xiong suddenly, squinted his fine eyes and said with a wicked smile: "Brother Thirty, don't you have any bad ideas, right?" ”
