44 Buy a bow
Then, he went to the town's cloth village and pulled some cloth, intending to change the family into new clothes.
These two girls heard that they were going to wear new clothes, but the coke was broken, you must know that the eldest girl and the second girl have never worn decent new clothes, they will always wear Niu Yunru's unwanted clothes, and the clothes are not only worn, but also patched one by one.
Even though Li Xianglan felt a little sorry for the silver, she was slightly happy to see Niu Dali loving her two daughters so much.
In ancient times, there was a general preference for sons over daughters, although most ordinary families would not criticize girls, but they would also give their mouths full of food, many people felt that when their daughters grew up, they would marry someone else's, so that ordinary girls knew how to help the family since they were young, not because the children of poor families were in charge of the family early, but ordinary parents thought that their daughters should do more things, and they would not be disliked when they married into their in-laws' family in the future.
After buying the cloth, passing by an arms shop, Niu Dali suddenly stopped, and Li Xianglan on the side was puzzled: "Brother Dali, what's wrong?"
The eldest girl and the second girl beside him also looked at him.
"I want to buy a bow!" Niu Dali said.
Li Xianglan was slightly stunned, and immediately, she thought of something, and said anxiously: "Brother Dali, do you want to go up the mountain to hunt? No, the mountain is too dangerous, if you have an accident, what should I do with the eldest girl and the second girl?"
"Brother Dali, do you want to listen to me, don't go up the mountain, we will use the silver taels last night to buy some good land. ”
Listening to Li Xianglan's pleading voice, Niu Dali was very moved, there was such a lady who thought about him, what was he not satisfied with, but he couldn't listen to Li Xianglan.
When they split up, they got ten taels, which is something that the whole village knows, and if they rashly take out a huge sum of money to buy land, the people in the village will definitely be suspicious.
Therefore, he must have a legitimate way to make money, which can launder the windfall he has obtained, and can also block the suspicion of the villagers.
And hunting is a good way to make money.
Everyone knows that hunting is very profitable, but that is also a destiny on the belt of the trousers, who knows if you can return to the village next time you go up the mountain.
In the future, their small life will become more and more prosperous, even if there are people in the village who are envious, they will not say anything.
"Xianglan, I know what you're worried about, but don't you know my skills? Otherwise, how can I carry such a handsome little lady home?" Niu Dali smiled innocently, although he said it with a flamboyant tongue, but from his honest and simple face, there was no flamboyant feeling.
Li Xianglan's face turned red, she naturally knew that Niu Dali was talking about the first time they met, "But... It's still too dangerous in the mountains!"
"Don't be afraid, when the time comes to go up the mountain, I will pull the tiger. "If there is anyone who is good at hunting in Xinghua Village at present, it is undoubtedly Wang Shihu, Wang Shihu has been going up the mountain all the year round, and where there is danger, he has probably figured it out.
As soon as she heard that she would go up the mountain with Wang Shihu, Li Xianglan hesitated, in fact, she didn't want Niu Dali to go up the mountain in her heart, but she couldn't resist Niu Dali, she was originally weak by nature, she has always been at home from her father, married from her husband, and in the end, she could only nod and agree.
And just like that, they entered the armory.
The shopkeeper saw that Niu Dali's family was dressed too coldly, and he didn't want to pay attention to it at first glance, but when he saw them holding big bags and small bags in their hands, there was actually a cloth from the most famous cloth village in the town, Jinxiu Pavilion, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him.
"I don't know which one this guest officer values?" said the shopkeeper vigorously and respectfully.
Niu Dali looked at the bow hanging on the wall, he didn't have any requirements for bows and arrows, anyway, it was just a show, for him, it was more convenient to use his bare hands.
"The guest officer has a vision! This bow, called the Wolf Shooting God Bow, within a hundred meters, let alone a wolf, even a bear can shoot to death!"
Niu nodded vigorously, and after a few introductions by the shopkeeper, he chose a cheap bow, but even if the bow was cheap, it would cost more than four taels, not including arrows.
Fortunately, I prepared some more silver taels when I went out this time, otherwise, I would have money to buy a bow but no money to buy arrows.
After buying the bow and arrows, they also returned to the place where they had previously gotten off.
At this moment, the ox cart was parked under the big tree, and the three women sitting on the ox cart were talking and laughing, and saw that their baskets were empty, and it seemed that they were sold out.
The two men who had come to the town together did not come back, they were working in the town, and they went back to the village once to visit their wives and children.
"Dali, do you want to go up the mountain to hunt when you buy a bow?" Uncle Zhu saw Niu Dali carrying a bow and arrow, and naturally knew what Niu Dali wanted to do.
Although the three women from the same village were a little surprised that Niu Dali's family had bought so many things, they also knew that Niu Dali had just separated and needed to buy a lot of things, but when they saw Niu Dali carrying a bow, they were also shocked.
"Yes, Uncle Zhu, you also know the situation of my family! Just two acres of dry land, if I don't work hard, how can I feed Xianglan and them?" Niu Dali replied honestly.
Uncle Zhu sighed in his heart, what he said was true, but it was too risky to go up the mountain, it was once in nine years!
"Vigorously, the mountains are very dangerous! If you have a case, how can Xianglan's mother and daughter be good?" Aunt Wang kindly persuaded.
The other two women also persuaded each other.
"It's okay! I'm not never on the mountain before, I have experience!" Niu Dali said confidently.
Several people on the ox cart looked at each other, Niu Dali didn't say, they forgot about it, when Niu Dali was not married, it was a good hunter in the village, and every time he went up the mountain, he didn't return empty-handed.
Uncle Lao Zhu thought of something, sighed, and said: "Back then, a Taoist priest passing by our village took a fancy to you, saying that you have a good talent for martial arts and want to accept you as an apprentice, but your father disagreed, so he kept you!
In the end, Uncle Zhu sighed again.
Niu was stunned.
Why didn't he remember this?
"I remember, it's really like this!" Suddenly, Aunt Wang slapped her thigh hard.
The other two women looked at Aunt Wang suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
"You married a little late in the village, I remember that it seems that Niu Laogen married that Qian Chunhua two years ago, a Taoist priest came to our village, just saw Dali, said that Dali has a good talent for martial arts, and wants to accept him as a disciple or something! At that time, that Qian Chunhua said that the Taoist priest was a liar, and drove the Taoist priest out of the door, now think about it, it's a pity!"
Aunt Wang said with a look of pity.
No one teaches it, and the ox hunts vigorously so well, and if someone teaches it, wouldn't it be even more powerful.
Niu Dali thought about it, when Niu Laogen married Qian Chunhua, at that time, he should have been only three or four years old, no wonder he was not impressed.
Li Xianglan didn't expect her husband to have such a bizarre opportunity.
