Back to the Countryside
Chapter 3: Buy cow
After the meal, Qi Yue went to the backyard to hold Muyan and set the saddle on him.
He intends to go to the town to buy a cow back. Naturally, Mu Yan will not really let Mu Yan do the farming. Let him pull a cart and pay it back. If he really wants to pull a plow, I'm afraid that he won't even give the cart. He pulled.
It usually takes two hours for the villagers to go to the town in an ox cart, and four hours for the round trip, so they usually have to get up early, or it will be dark before they come back, for fear of unsafe.
But with Mu Yan's feet, it took only half an hour.
When he arrived in the town, Qi Yue didn't make much delay, and went straight to the livestock market. There are more animals, and the smell is definitely not very good. He covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, and quickly searched for the location of the cattle.
Originally, he was going to ask Lin Sheng, if anyone in the nearby village wanted to sell cattle, he would take one back. Later, I thought that now is the time for farming, and I am afraid that no one will sell cattle at this time.
Some are sold, and they are also small calves, and those who can work are to be kept for their own use.
As for renting someone else's house, he felt it was too much trouble, so he might as well just buy one, as he would use it in the future.
Qi Yue soon found a place to sell cattle, both calves and mature cattle. He picked a healthy-looking mature cattle from it, and he paid the cash readily.
Leading the cow out of the livestock market, Qi Yue took a few deep breaths. The smell of all kinds of feces mixed together in the market is really uncomfortable!
I bought everything in the house yesterday, and there is no shortage for the time being, so he doesn't plan to go shopping any more, he plans to go back to the village directly after picking up the horse at the entrance of the town.
"Miss, be careful!"
As soon as Qi Yue walked to the main road, he heard an exclamation, and then a figure threw over at him, and he subconsciously leaned on his side, and the man fell to the ground with a "boom" and let out a cry of pain!
"Miss, are you okay?!" A little girl squatted down hurriedly to help her get up, and nervously checked whether she was hurt by the fall.
"What's the matter with you?! Seeing this lady fall, how dare..." The girl who fell to the ground scolded as soon as she was lifted up, but stopped when she saw Qi Yue's face. The expression was also stunned.
Qi Yue smiled, arched his hands at her, and said, "I'm really sorry, but when he saw something upside down, he subconsciously avoided it. He didn't expect to be a girl."
Seeing him smiling, the girl's face was instantly stained with a layer of red frost, and her behavior became twisted, "It's the little girl who stepped on the corner of the skirt and didn't stand firmly. It has nothing to do with the son!"
The little girl next to her looked at her with surprise, then turned to look at Qi Yue's face, she also blushed, but her heart was clear, she was afraid that she was in love with others?
"In that case, I will leave now!" Seeing her behavior, Qi Yue understood her thoughts by himself, and didn't want to stay any longer, planning to leave directly.
"Hey, this young man, the young woman was frightened by the young man just now. I wonder if the young man can tell the name so that the young woman invites the young man to the teahouse to tell her, and she apologizes?" The girl stopped in front of him with a pair of beautiful eyes. Looking at him hopefully.
A hint of impatience flashed across Qi Yue's eyes, but his smile never changed. "I have never been shocked, so I don't have to drink tea. I'm just a farmer in the village, so I don't dare to delay the lady's time."
"If you say anything about delay, the little girl has nothing to do!" The girl twisted the veil in her hand a little shyly.
Although this person is dressed in an ordinary silk robe, and is still holding a scalper, and looks like a countryman, his face is extraordinary, and his body and temperament are excellent. Not to mention the town, she has seen it. Those rich young masters in the city had never had this kind of tolerance, which really fascinated her!
The girl is fine, but there are important things next time, so let's say goodbye! "The words are already a bit rude, Qi Yue has no intention of wasting time with a young girl who is pregnant.
He pulled the rope of the bull in his hand, walked around her and left quickly.
The girl still wanted to chase, but was blocked by a passing carriage. When the carriage passed, where there was Qi Yue's figure, she stomped her feet unwillingly!
When Qi Yue returned to the village, his speed was naturally much slower because of the extra cattle. It was already dusk when he arrived in the village.
Most people in the village had eaten dinner, some women sat chatting together, and seeing him riding a horse and holding a cow, they asked him if he had gone to the town to buy cows!
Most of them were elders, and Qi Yue couldn't sit immediately and reply, so he dismounted.
Although he didn't know these people, they were all in the village in the future, and it was hard to ignore them. "Kanming'er has to step up to plow the land, and then he brought a cow back."
"It's okay to use horses for farming. You just bought a yard. Even if you are rich in your hands, you should save it!" A woman of a certain age persuaded him, thinking that he was young, spending too much money and not saving much. How can money work!
"Oh, you can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour. Since people have spent them, they will naturally have them in their hands. There is no need to be frugal!" Qi Yue hadn't spoken before, and another woman spoke with yin and yang strangely.
"He Tian's family!" The woman who spoke first was immediately annoyed, and she cursed back with her arms akimbo. She was persuaded by the people around her to quarrel in front of a new kid. It was too ugly. .
"How old is the kid this year? It's really rare to be so prosperous!" In order to ease the atmosphere, a woman turned the topic off.
Just now they were so uncomfortable with Qi Yue, and at this moment, they just followed the diversion and said, "Twenty is two!"
"At this age, never married a wife?" When I asked this, it was obvious that everyone around him was very interested, and they all looked at him.
Men usually make a marriage at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and they will get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen. The girl’s brother has to be earlier and will marry at fifteen or sixteen. Like Lin Sheng, who lives next door to him, he will be married at the age of eighteen. This year Twenty-five, my son is six years old!
Qi Yue lowered his head and smiled, "I have never met someone I like!"
That is not married! The women who have unmarried daughters and elder brothers in the house are all happy. This boy has a handsome appearance and a good temperament. He will definitely enjoy the blessings after marrying!
"That's a coincidence, our brother is a good one, let you see him later!" Then the He Tian family immediately opened his eyes and smiled, and he must like the look of her brother.
"Oh, you're talking about Brother Ling, right? That's really good-looking and good-tempered, and you can do all the work at home!" The woman who had been choked by her sneered, and she said meaningfully.
As soon as she said this, the faces of the people around her became a little strange, especially the ridicule on the face of the woman who spoke!
