"Hmm." Zhu Ruru came back to her senses, nodded, and then folded the letter and put it back in the envelope.

Meng Huaiyan asked again: "Is he okay?" ”

"It's fine."

After Zhu Ruru put the letter away, she raised her eyes and glanced at Meng Huaiyan twice. In his unexplained gaze, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his arm.

The moment the hands and arms of the two touched, Meng Huaiyan's whole body froze.

"What's wrong? Don't like me holding you like this? ”

Zhu Ruru naturally felt the changes in Meng Huaiyan for the first time, and looked at him with raised eyebrows.

Meng Huaiyan hurriedly shook his head, "No, it's just a little sudden...... I love it. ”

As soon as the last few words were spoken, the face, which had just faded from the red cloud, quickly turned red again.

Zhu Ruru looked at Meng Huaiyan's blushing face, and the smile on her face couldn't help but become brighter.

She found that the two of them talked about it, and it seemed to be fine.

In the future, she can tease him more unscrupulously~

"Ahem, shall we go to the bookstore first, or should we go shopping for gifts first?" Meng Huaiyan felt Zhu Ruru's gaze and hurriedly diverted the topic.

Zhu Ruru said, "Let's go to the bookstore first." ”

So, the two went to the bookstore first and bought some books for enlightenment. I bought some paper, pen, and ink tables.

Although it was for Rarity and Yunyun's enlightenment, Zhu Ruru still bought it at a relatively high price.

The price is relatively high, the quality is better, and the ink and fragrance will smell better than the cheaper.

Naturally, Zhu Ruru hopes to give Rarity and Yunyun a better one.

After leaving the bookstore, Zhu Ruru still did not rush to buy gifts, but took Meng Huaiyan to the place where the horses were sold.

Zhu Ruru had plans to buy a horse earlier.

Today she plans to take a look at the horse market.

If she can see a horse she likes, she plans to buy one and go back.

When he arrived at the horse market, the first thing the boss of the horse market said was to ask Zhu Ruru: "The girl is a crime?" Criminals cannot buy horses unless they have a charter or have more than three meritorious medals. ”

Zhu Ruru had long known that the imperial court had this regulation, so there was no surprise when she heard the words of the boss of the horse market.

"Three meritorious cards, don't worry, I have them."

In the past, on the way to exile, she and Wu Tongcai went to the cottage to retrieve things, and she and Meng Huaiyan each obtained a meritorious medal.

Successfully repelled the group of poisonous snakes and saved the poisoned people, Xia Jing issued a meritorious service card to Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan.

And last time, Zhu Ruru successfully subdued the group of pirates, and she asked for a meritorious service card from Cheng Zongzhen.

Zhu Ruru now happens to have three meritorious cards.

When she went out, she also specially brought all the meritorious service cards.

The boss of the horse market saw Zhu Ruru take out three meritorious cards engraved with her name, and after distinguishing the authenticity from the fake, his attitude immediately became kind.

Enthusiastically introduce her to the horses in their shop.

Their horses are divided into upper, middle and lower classes.

The inferior class is only one hundred and one horses, the medium one is three hundred and one horses, and the upper class is five hundred and eight hundred and one horses.

Zhu Ruru finally fell in love with a black first-class horse, and the boss offered six hundred and eighty taels.

"Boss, most of us here are exiled criminals, and there are not many who are qualified to buy horses, and there are even fewer who can afford so much money."

"You sell it to me cheaper, you must need a lot of forage just to feed them every day, right?"

"This horse is a first-class horse, but it's so hungry that it's almost out of shape......"

After some bargaining, the owner of the horse market finally agreed to sell the horse to Zhu Ruru for 480 taels.

After completing the registration procedures, Zhu Ruru pulled the newly bought horse out of the horse market.

Then I went to buy a carriage and asked someone to install it for her.

In the end, I went to the East Market and bought the gifts.

When Zhu Ruru and Meng Huaiyan drove back with the carriage, many villagers who saw it were amazed.

"That's Miss Ruru and Meng Gongzi? Did they buy a carriage? It's really enviable! ”

"Not really! If only my family could buy a horse, I really miss the days when I could ride a carriage every day when I went out! ”

"Hey, what a luxury these days! Not to mention whether there is so much money to buy, we are not even qualified to buy horses! ”

While the villagers were talking, Qin Xiu'er's family also happened to be standing outside the house.

Qin Yuan looked at Zhu Ruru and their carriage enviously.

He turned his head and said to Mrs. Qin, Zheng and Qin Xiu'er: "Mother, second sister, I really want to take the carriage." ”

Qin Mao on the side echoed: "Me too, so am I!" Mother, second sister, when will our family be able to buy a carriage? ”

The topic of Qin Yuan and Qin Mao's brothers made the Zheng family feel guilty for a while.

In the past, when they were in Kyoto, every time their family traveled, it was a horse-drawn carriage......

Just when the Zheng family didn't know how to answer Qin Mao, Qin Xiu'er glanced at her two younger brothers coldly.

"Still want to ride in a carriage? Let's wait for the next life! ”

Qin Yuan and Qin Mao heard Qin Xiu'er's words, and their little faces instantly turned red.

"Mother, what the second sister said is true? Is it true that we will never be able to ride in a carriage again in this life? ”

"Of course it's not true, when you grow up, you can make meritorious contributions, and if you make meritorious contributions, we can buy carriages." Zheng hurriedly reassured the two of them.

Then he looked back at Qin Xiu'er with a little blame, "Yuan'er Mao'er and the two are still young, and you will make them sad if you talk like this." ”

"What's wrong with me? It's just telling the truth. Qin Xiu'er glanced back at Zheng with a cold eye, "Mother, you really hope that Zhu Ruru is your daughter, right?" If she's your daughter, you'll all be in the carriage by now! ”

Every time she saw the Zheng family showing envy for Zhu Ruru's family, Qin Xiu'er became even more disgusted with Zhu Ruru.

Last time, she instructed Qin Wencheng to take the pirates up the mountain and let him take advantage of the chaos to stun Zhu Ruru, but Qin Wencheng not only didn't succeed, but was stunned by Zhu Ruru.

As soon as she thought of this, Qin Xiu'er vomited blood very much.

I don't know how Zhu Ruru's luck is so good.

However, when a person's good luck runs out, she never believes that Zhu Ruru will always be so lucky......

"Xiu'er, what are you talking about......

Zheng knew his daughter's temper, and after talking for half a sentence, he didn't say any more.

Zhu Ruru's side, she naturally didn't know that she was jealous and hated by Qin Xiu'er again.

Driving the carriage into the courtyard, Tang Qinglan Ruirui and the others were so happy that they couldn't keep their mouths together.

Of course, after being happy, Tang Qinglan felt sorry for the silver again and asked about the price of the horse.

"Ruru, this horse is not cheap, is it? How much money do you get? ”

Zhu Ruru said: "It's not very expensive, plus the carriage is a total of five hundred taels." ”

"Five hundred taels?"

Tang Qinglan gasped.

"This, this is too expensive! If so, do we have so much silver in our house? ”

Because the family's money was basically earned by Zhu Ruru, Tang Qinglan also let Zhu Ruru take care of the house, and she never asked how much savings the family had now.

Although she had never asked, she always felt that even if her family made a lot of money, she shouldn't be able to take out five hundred taels casually, right?
