Chapter 219
The horse dealer didn't want to split the two horses, and wanted to sell them to the family. Mrs. Liu hesitated after she understood it. The family wanted to buy a grown-up horse, but had no plans to buy a foal.

"Mom, if the price is reasonable, why don't you buy them all?"

The black fur of the little pony, with four hooves on the snow, made Qingli involuntarily think of Chunyu's majestic mount when he first met him, and he loved the little pony very much.

"How about this, ma'am, if you can buy them all, how about I charge you 50 taels of silver? If you don't believe me, ask around. A grown-up horse costs 40 taels. I'll give you [-] taels for this little pony. It's a price of conscience."

The man who sold the horse patted himself on the chest, his expression was as if he had lost a lot of money, they had already inquired before they came, and the average adult horse can be bought for a little over 30 taels, and the foal is generally only [-] taels. There are two more, which is about the same price.

"Ma'am, the price is not bad."

Fu Shun walked up to the mare and took a look. The horse was well-proportioned, with a straight and protruding chest and abdomen. He opened his mouth to look at its teeth, turned his head to look at the foal as well, and nodded to his mother, Mrs. Liu.

In the end, Mrs. Liu gritted her teeth and bought it together. The little pony will grow up in the future and can be used at home.

When returning home, Niang Liu took Qingli on foot, and the horse dealer helped drive the horse to the street. Fushun led the horse back first, and would have to come back to pick up the ox cart later.

"Girl Li, do you have anything you want to eat? Mother will take you to buy it, and take a stroll along the way."

Mrs. Liu took Qingli, and the two of them went back and forth. Mother wanted to buy some cotton, play a few thick quilts, and go to the cloth shop.

"Mom, you go, I'll wait for you outside, I promise not to run around."

After Qingli and Niang promised, seeing Niang entered the cloth village, she quickly ran to a shop next to it that sold pastries and preserved fruits.

The things here are relatively complete in the town. In addition to all kinds of snacks and cakes, there are also preserved fruits, walnuts, pine nuts, hazelnuts, chestnuts, almonds, melon seeds, and various peanuts, with skins and without skins. Sweet, spicy, and reasonably priced.

Qing Li also bought a lot, and asked the shopkeeper to send a basket. She put the things in the basket and covered it with a piece of cloth. .

The shop next door sells deli sauce meat, pig ears, knuckles, salted duck, chicken legs, and Qingli. I also bought a few items, but I still feel unsatisfactory. I always feel restrained when I go out with my mother. If she can buy more by herself .

After a while, my mother came out from the cloth shop, and bought a few more bolts of thick cloth, and kept them for making quilts. When she saw that Qingli's basket was full of food, she didn't say anything about her. Mouth, as long as it is appropriate, I can be satisfied now. When I return to the village, it will be impossible to eat snacks and cakes every day.

With a horse at home, the whole family felt new. My grandfather was as excited as a child, stroking the horse's head non-stop, and nagging, saying that he would definitely treat it well, so he came to the right place.

There is a place for livestock at home, but it had been empty before. Old man Wang also went in and cleaned it. There was a lot of thick straw in it, and he also prepared a lot of forage to feed the horses.

"The carriage hasn't been built yet, and we have to find someone. We have to make a comfortable one that doesn't bump."

Grandpa excitedly said to his father, Mo Ruhu, "Which one in town has the best craftsmanship?"

"I've ridden in Qinzhong's carriage, and it's pretty good."

Sister Chun'er's carriage is too luxurious, but Qinzhong's carriage is not bad. It looks simple on the outside, but the inside is complete and unpretentious. It is quite comfortable to sit on.

"When your elder brother comes back and ask him to inquire about it, our family will do the same."

Mo Ruhu nodded, these two horses are not expensive at 50 taels of silver, the price is still fair, these horses are not the best, they are more expensive in being meek, they can’t be like the Xu family’s carriage, run like crazy after whipping a few whips, trampled to death If someone is found, there will be a life lawsuit, so he is very satisfied.

"Fourth sister, can I touch it?"

There were new things in the house, and the little disciples Xi and Dongwa who were playing with the snow also jumped over, looking at the big horse who was much taller than themselves, with fear and curiosity in their eyes.

"With your height, you can only touch the horse's legs."

Qingli watched the little disciple like a little bean and wanted to touch the mane on the horse's head, so she laughed unkindly a few times.

"Come on, little brother, second sister hugs you and touches you."

Mo Qingqiang glared at Qingli, then stepped forward with Zixi in her arms, and stroked the mare's head. The mare was docile and did nothing else. The tallest horse I've ever seen.

"Second Sister, Brother Dongwa hasn't touched him before, can you hug him and pet him?"

The little disciple Xi looked back at the second sister, and made a request cautiously.It was rare for the little brother to get close to her once, of course Mo Qingqiang would not refuse, after putting down the little brother, she picked up Dongwa again.

The horses were bought, and the carriage was still needed. In just a few days, Qingli was waiting to take the carriage back to the village. Everyone was still around the horse and pointed out, not afraid of the cold. space.

In the space, Xiao Ling tidied up the paper bags that were originally thrown in. One of the oiled paper bags containing pig ears was opened, and most of the pig ears inside had been wiped out. You don't need to think about who the culprit is. After the silly bird had eaten and drank enough, he wandered leisurely in the space to digest his food.

"Master, this pig's ear is not bad, I didn't expect it to be so delicious."

Seeing Qingli enter the space, Xiao Ling pointed at the paper bag with his paw and said, "It's just that I bought too little, and the food in the space doesn't go bad, why doesn't the master buy more."

Qingli rolled her eyes. Although Sha Niao was a little stupid before, but in fact, now she has become a foodie, clamoring for a bite of everything. Her appetite is close to that of a human being. After the devil Chunyu left, nothing happened to him. Rizai was doing nothing in the space, and his belly was getting bigger, Qingli was worried that it would be able to fly if it ate too much fat, so it decided to find some work for the silly bird, and send it to Xu Zhutou's house at night to inquire about some gossip.

In the few days after the snow fell, although the sun was shining every day, the temperature dropped a lot. Even in the yard at noon, the sun was still shining, warming the body, but in the cloudy place, it was still warm. Cold chills.

Qingli had already put on a thick padded jacket, and her mother, Liu, saw that she was afraid of the cold, so she made a small cloak for her from the rabbit skin that Zhao Wanchun sent. .

There is too much snow in the second courtyard, so Zhang Bo and old man Wang just shoveled a road with shovels to the Chuhua Gate. The rest of the place is still white. The sun is shining at noon, and some of the snow on it will melt. At night, the original water vapor condenses into ice again.
