Chapter 16 Keeping this horse is a disaster

The family walked forward in a hurry for most of the night, until they came to a sheltered place on the mountain again.

Everyone in the family wanted to take a break, but no one dared to say so.

A group of people looked at Old Mrs. Han longingly, and she sighed, "Take a rest, take a rest."

Everyone was relieved, put down their things and sat down.

Zhao Shuangtao patted his chest and said, "Mom, this is so evil! Why did those people suddenly lose their energy? It's really weird!"

Mrs. Han's face also looked very ugly.

In all my life, I have never seen such a strange thing!

Boss Han said in a low voice, "Maybe God is really helping us! Let's not mention this matter from now on. What do you think, mother?"

Mrs. Han nodded thoughtfully.

What the boss said is somewhat reasonable, but I'm afraid God may not be helping them!

Lin Yueru ignored Mrs. Han's fiery eyes and reminded: "Mom, what happened tonight is all because of this horse..."

She only reminded her of this, and Old Mrs. Han came back to her senses.

Before she could speak, Han Yanqing sat up suddenly.

"Mom, you can't lose your horse!"

He was angrily planning to hurt Mrs. Han and make a fuss, but Lin Yueru patted his hand, and he sat back with his lips pursed.

Mrs. Han couldn't help but glance sideways at Lin Yueru.

In the past, when the fourth child made trouble, he wouldn't listen to anyone!

Boss Han also echoed, "Mom, our family is really eye-catching with this horse. Otherwise, let's eat this horse..."

As if seeing an enemy, Han Yanqing stood up angrily and hugged the horse next to him.

"No! No one is allowed to eat the horse!"

Lin Yueru quickly coaxed, "I didn't say, I didn't say I wanted to eat the horse. Don't worry yet."

Old Mrs. Lin also said earnestly: "Fourth brother, it's not that I want to eat the horse, but our family has no ability to protect it. If we still take it with us in the future, it will not be a good thing for us!"

"That's not OK!"

Han Yanqing didn't understand what he was hearing, and he stood guarding the horse with his bare eyes.

"No one is allowed to touch it anyway! I can protect it!"

In the past few days, he had been looking for food and grass for the horse to feed every day, and he often talked to the horse about what was available and what was not available.

In his mind, this horse has been a good friend for a long time, so why would he kill a good friend?

Mrs. Han saw that he was stubborn and knew that his temper was getting worse, so she refused to be stubborn with him.

"Okay, okay, listen to you, why don't we leave it alone?"

Only then did Han Yanqing lose some of his hostility and no longer looked at Mrs. Han and the others as if they were bad people.

But from then on, he became more defensive than before. Most of the time Mr. Han looked at this horse, he would glare back fiercely.

Let alone an outsider, if he looked at him with malicious intent, he would want to take out his dagger and scare that person away.

Mrs. Han couldn't do anything to him, and she really couldn't kill the horse, so she had to take it with her for the time being.

After walking like this for another two days, the old Han family gradually caught up with many people and reached the front of the fleeing team.

It only takes another six or seven days to reach Danyang!

I heard that there are people who provide porridge and food in Danyang, so I might as well make other plans when the time comes.

"Brother Liu, didn't they say they were also going to some village at the foot of Danyang? I don't know if their journey will be smooth or if they can encounter it again..."

Han Laoer is still thinking about the Liu family and his son.

Mrs. Han sat on the cart holding the Three Treasures and Four Treasures, "When we get to Danyang, let's find a place to settle down first, and then we can go look for them."

Han Lao Er became happy and said, "Sure, mother!"

"Da da da……"

As he was talking, there was a sound of horse hooves coming from behind.

Han Yanqing looked back and saw two wealthy carriages coming towards them.

Lin Yueru also noticed it, but the two carriages seemed to belong to wealthy families, so she probably had nothing to do with them.

Mrs. Han thought so too, so everyone remained silent.

As a result, the two carriages actually turned a corner and chased them!

Mrs. Han's heart tightened.

Subconsciously asked: "Girl Ru, could this be another bandit..."

"Won't!"

Lin Yueru said categorically, "The bandits won't use such a carriage, but I'm afraid they are really coming to find us now."

What she didn't say was that the horse in the car behind looked a little shabby, so I'm afraid these people had something up their sleeve...

The Han family moved aside symbolically.

The slower carriage behind them stopped not far away, and only the one in front didn't stop until it reached them.

A middle-aged man dressed simply but neatly got out of the car.

This person got straight to the point, "Do you want to sell this horse?"

Mrs. Han was stunned.

Buying a horse?

I have always been a horse rusher before, so I was a bit uncomfortable for a while.

The middle-aged man frowned in confusion when no one spoke. Could there be something wrong with this family?

Lin Yueru said at the right time, "Sell it. Mother, sell it?"

Mrs. Han also nodded repeatedly, "For sale! For sale!"

The man's face softened a little, "This horse of yours is pretty good, can you get it for twenty taels of silver?"

Twenty taels of silver!

The combined wealth of their entire family is only two taels of silver!

The big pie almost knocked Mrs. Han unconscious, and she couldn't wait to eat it with her mouth full!

Lin Yueru, however, had a keen eye and tugged on Mrs. Han's sleeve before she spoke.

"Mom, we don't know what will happen if we go further, why don't we get some food?"

She was also a little selfish, and she exchanged some food openly, so that she would not have to find excuses to take it out in the future!

Mrs. Han was even more happy when she heard this, "Yes! Girl Ru has thought carefully. She needs to add more food to the family!"

These days, you may not be able to buy food if you have money.

"Brother, can we save some money and exchange it for some food?"

"No! Don't sell the horse! Don't sell the horse!"

Before the middle-aged man could say anything, Han Yanqing started to lose his temper.

It was a cheap thing to exchange money for food, but there was no shop like this in this village. Lin Yueru was afraid that he would spoil this best deal, so she took his hand and walked aside.

Mrs. Han was originally afraid that Han Yanqing would lose his temper and refuse to listen to Lin Yueru.

Who knew that although this kid had eyes on the horse, his legs would follow Lin Yueru unconsciously!

She couldn't help but feel happy, she really got something for herself!

When Lin Yueru brought him back, Mrs. Han had reached an agreement.

A horse was exchanged for fifteen taels of silver, and then filled with fifty kilograms of japonica rice and fifty kilograms of white flour.

No matter how you calculate it, they are the ones who made the profit!

Han Yanqing stopped making trouble and just reluctantly stroked the horse's head.

He whispered next to the horse's ear: "Don't be afraid, horse, horse. My wife said that they will feed you delicious food when they take you away, so that you can have a full stomach..."

The middle-aged man couldn't help but glance at Lin Yueru.

This man is innocent and kind by nature, but it's a pity that he is stupid. If his wife doesn't dislike him, he must be a good person.

After he went to the carriage and reported back, he carried the food on the carriage to the Han family's carriage and hitched the horse to the carriage behind.

After changing horses, the middle-aged man felt much happier and waved happily to the Han family.

Mrs. Han got the advantage, so she naturally smiled and said goodbye, "Have a safe journey!"
