101 Buying a Horse (1)

This time, it was not a bad reputation.

The villagers were very curious. Did Fatty Su receive guidance from an expert?

Could this be the legendary enlightenment?

They heard that she fell on her wedding day...

The aunties in the village started wondering if they should go back and throw their children...

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know what the villagers were thinking. She openly accepted the gazes of the villagers.

It was mainly because she was used to it. The original owner had received too many strange gazes since she was young. She wouldn’t care, nor would she distinguish them carefully.

If she looked carefully today, she would realize that everyone was looking at her differently from before.

It was not only because there was less malice, but they were also unconsciously attracted by her new appearance.

She was still the same person. She was still very fat, but for some reason, the villagers felt that Fatty Su looked much more pleasing to the eye.

It seemed as if... she had become fair. The dazzling sunlight above her head was reflected on her supple face, and her skin was so tender and supple.

In addition, a few sharp-eyed aunties realized that her face was a little different. In the past, her face looked like a big round pancake. Now, there were some lines on her lower jaw. She had a cute round face!

“Fat Lass... looks better.”

Madam Fang, who was drying clothes at Old Su’s house, said.

Su Jinniang spread out her clothes and said in a low voice, “She’s so fat. What’s so good about her?”

In the room, Su Yuniang continued leisurely, “Don’t say that. Even though she’s fat, her facial features are really not bad. If she slims down, she would be much more beautiful than you!”

Su Jinniang was so angry that she threw the clothes heavily on the clothesline!

The snow had not fallen for a few days. Today, the weather was clear and the wind was not strong. It was warm sitting on the ox cart. The three little ones narrowed their eyes in enjoyment and were extremely arrogant!

Liu Ping looked at their happy faces and knew that they were doing extremely well in the Su family.

They were both stepmothers. But while Big Wu was mean, Fatty Su, who was always regarded as a bully, was more like the triplets’ biological mother.

Thinking of this, Liu Ping subconsciously revealed an envious gaze.

Su Xiaoxiao happened to turn around and met Liu Ping’s gaze.

Liu Ping’s heart skipped a beat, while Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes. Why did she feel that he want to be her son?

....

Two hours later, the three adults and three small children arrived at the horse market Liu Ping mentioned.

Although it was called a horse market, it was actually a few old sheds built by the docks. There was some livestock waiting to be sold inside.

It was only the tenth day of the lunar new year, but there were already many people going to the horse market.

The probability of people turning their heads to do a doubletake of the fat village girl and the little packrats was 100%. All the pedestrians looked at them.

Su Xiaoxiao said to the three little ones on the ox cart, “Watch Uncle closely. Don’t let him get lost, understand?”

The three little ones nodded seriously and grabbed Su Ergou’s sleeve. They would definitely keep an eye on Uncle!

Liu Ping said to Su Xiaoxiao, “The largest shed is for the government’s post-horse. Other than the post-horse, you can choose anything else.”

The six of them walked around the horse market. To be honest, other than the officials’ fat and strong horses, the rest were either old horses or sick horses. The price was ridiculously expensive.

“50 taels? This is an old horse!” Liu Ping looked at the horse dealer in disbelief. “Don’t bully me for not knowing the market. I’ve worked here for two years. This kind of old horse is usually only sold for 20 to 30 taels.”

The dealer said slowly, “There’s a rumor that there’s going to be a war in the southwest. Horses are in short supply. This horse is a little old and can pull goods. If you think it’s expensive, the military camp will drag it away on another day and you won’t be able to buy it even if you want to! If you really want it, 45 taels, no less!”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and left with Liu Ping.

She did not care if the news was accurate or not. She did not intend to spend all her assets to buy an old horse that would only last a few years.

An old dealer diagonally opposite shouted at Su Xiaoxiao, “Miss! Are you hauling goods or traveling? If you’re hauling goods, look at the mules! I have high-quality mules here. They eat little and are strong. There are people between the ages of four and ten!”

Liu Ping said, “Nonsense! Horse mules eat a lot! Donkey mules have a small appetite!”

Mules were the descendants of horses and donkeys. A horse mule was born of a female horse and was closer to a horse. A donkey mule was born of a female donkey and was closer to a donkey.

The advantages of donkey mules were that they had a small appetite, strong endurance, and long lifespan. They could be used until they were about 20 years old.

On the other hand, the horse mule was strong, fast, and smarter. Its shortcoming was that it had a bad temper and was not easy to tame. Its lifespan was also shorter than that of a mule. It would lose its ability to be used when it was about 15 years old.
