Next is the mule cart. Mules are faster than oxen and slower than horses, but they have good resistance to cold and heat, so they are not cheap. Better mules are no cheaper than oxen. If you add carts, you will at least have to
Close to twenty taels.
Even though they have saved dozens of taels before, it is possible for them to buy a cow for 20 taels, but they are absolutely reluctant to buy a mule cart. What kind of family they are, it is not that they cannot walk, so they buy a cart that can only be used for transportation.
, spending so much money is a bit too extravagant.
"This is what I want to buy!" Seeing Mrs. Liu's expression change, Liu Xingzhi hurriedly explained: "We are going to do business here, and there are so many things at home. Running back and forth on both sides will cost a lot of money. Besides, today
It’s freezing cold, what should I do if it freezes again? And my wife, if she gets pregnant in a while, how can she stand going back and forth every day?”
As soon as she mentioned the pregnancy, Mrs. Liu's expression immediately softened, and she nodded: "You are right, the third daughter-in-law has a weak body and cannot be exposed to the cold anymore. It is really convenient to have this!"
After saying that, she held on to the handlebars and jumped directly on. How could she not see that her son was not entirely telling the truth? However, the couple had discussed it. As a mother-in-law, even if she was reluctant to let go, she couldn't say anything.
At the beginning, the old scholar Yun said that if he settled down in the future, he would let his third son out. Even if she didn't like it, after landing, Yunxi wanted to separate, but she didn't say anything. After all, the third son of her family married Yunxi.
That's a big deal. Now that they are separated, they are two families. She can give some advice, but she can't point fingers. So even if Liu Xingzhi doesn't explain, she won't say much.
Yun Xi's eyes swept across Mrs. Liu's face, and her mind changed, and she guessed what was going on. They said that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were natural enemies, and there was nothing that could be done about it. The son he had worked hard to raise was focused on another woman.
, even if you are not jealous, there is still some sourness.
After thinking about it, he said: "Mom, when the weather gets warmer, Sanlang plans to buy a cow for dad and you. I heard from him that you and dad used to envy the second uncle's cow the most. Now that our conditions are better, it's not that bad.
point!"
When she heard that she wanted to buy a cow, Mrs. Liu was overjoyed, and then she shook her head and said: "No, no, I have money in my hand. If you want to buy it, I can just buy it myself. You are opening a shop and doing business, so just keep the money for yourself."
good!"
Yun Xi thought for a while and decided to show off a little bit, so that the other party would not always think that they had no money, so he explained: "Last time I went up to the mountain with him, and we hunted a lot of prey, which was enough to buy ten cows. This is what San Lang wants to show his filial piety.
It's yours, you can't refuse it, otherwise Saburo will definitely be sad, and I won't be happy either!"
"That's right, Mom, hasn't it been too cold recently? I'm afraid that if I buy a cow, it will freeze to death! Otherwise, I would have sold it to you!" Liu Sanlang shivered and shouted outside.
Mrs. Liu's face looked a little better. Her son and daughter-in-law were filial, and if she wanted to be meddlesome, it would be too much.
Seeing him like this, Yun Xi and Liu Xingzhi looked at each other, with a hint of amusement flashing in their eyes. Old and young, old and young, older people are just like children, their tempers come and go quickly.
Dabao Erbao watched Liu Xingzhi driving the car curiously, his eyes full of eagerness to try. Even Liu Erlang's eyes were bright. There is no man who doesn't love cars!
"I'll give you a try when it gets brighter another day!" When Liu Xingzhi turned around, he met three pairs of shining eyes. He instantly understood what they were thinking and said with a smile, "It's almost getting dark today.
Those who are overtaken by a car can easily run into a ditch!"
Dabao Erbao was a little disappointed, but Liu Erlang said puzzledly: "Lao San, when did you drive a car? You probably haven't even seen a mule!"
In the past, he was the one who went out. This third brother had a dull personality, but when he started escaping, he seemed to be a different person. He seemed to know everything, and he was much more stable than before.
"The third brother is so different now from before. He has become so powerful!" Xu hid her lips and smiled. She also felt that her brother-in-law was more capable than before!
"That's right, if the third child hadn't been my son, I would have thought he had been swapped!" Mrs. Liu responded with a smile, making the people outside the car couldn't help but tremble.
The corners of Yun Xi's lips curled up, but he didn't mean to help explain at all. Instead, he looked like he was watching a good show!
"Um, didn't I help my wife's senior brother last time? He has a carriage, and I learned how to do it once!" Liu Xingzhi laughed, looked at Yun Xi's eyes that were bent with a smile, and said with a bad smile:
"Mom, didn't you say before that you grow up as soon as you get into trouble? You said that when we first fled the famine, we didn't have anything to eat or drink, and besides..., uh, what about that, right?"
Everyone thought that the third daughter-in-law was too noisy at that time, otherwise they would not have almost died. When they thought about it, they all turned to look at Yun Xi.
"Yes, Third Aunt has changed even more!" Dabao said with a smile: "At that time, I thought that Third Uncle would be even worse than my father in the future!"
"Yes, third brother and sister, you have changed the most!" Mrs. Xu also nodded repeatedly, turned to look at Yun Xi, and muttered: "It seems that you have completely changed. I can hardly remember what the third brother and sister were like before.
Got it!"
Yun Xi moved her lips. This was because she had eaten something on herself. She couldn't say that she had traveled through time, so she could only make up a story!
"I know what's going on!" Before Yun Xi could think of what to say, Mrs. Liu said: "Speaking of which, my in-laws and I did something unethical. If a good girl was tied up in marriage, anyone else would collapse.
.Although we have good intentions, in such a situation, even if we have good intentions, we still feel uncomfortable, and the third daughter-in-law is also a miserable person!"
"Oh, I know, Third Aunt may have figured it out later, right!" Dabao answered, looked at Yun Xi and said: "Third Aunt must think that Third Uncle is not bad, and our family is also good, so I won't tell you."
You're angry, right?"
"A scholar's daughter should be like your third aunt!" Mrs. Liu nodded.
Yun Xi smiled and nodded. It was perfect. She would no longer be afraid of anyone asking questions. You see, the answers were all very complete. She almost believed them!
Liu Xingzhi turned his head and saw his wife's provocative expression. He couldn't help but smile. Just as he was about to say something, something was stuffed into his arms. It was warm. The original feeling of freezing was quickly dispelled.
, even the biting north wind seemed to be of no use. Immediately, his eyebrows became gentler and he said with a smile: "I discovered the goodness of your third aunt. My wife is so good. If you don't cherish her, she will be struck by lightning!"
Yun Xi pursed her lips and smiled. Although she didn't say anything, she didn't say anything.
Several people in the car looked away one after another. Although they didn't understand what eating dog food meant, they felt a little cruel, a little sour, and a little bit envious.
