Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 384
Before Liu Ya answered, Xiao Shu'er rushed to ask: "Where else did it come from? My second sister bought it. Second sister, right?"

"En." Liu Ya nodded and agreed, "I went to the city today, and the carriage driver I hired had an old illness, so I bought his horse. This horse is very good, it runs fast and has stamina. "

Liu Xu'er looked at the big black horse, but still didn't dare to go forward. After hearing Liu Ya's words, she asked in doubt, "How much money does this cost? Can our family afford another horse?"

Liu Ya knew that in the minds of peasants, horses plowed the land and pulled the mill.But their Liu family has no land now, so naturally they don't need horses.Moreover, there are not many horses in Pingshan Village, so Liu Xu'er naturally doesn't realize how important it is for a horse to travel. She will probably be more surprised if you tell her that it's just for riding a horse.

Liu Ya said: "It's okay, horses also eat grass. Occasionally go to the oil mill to buy some bean cakes left over from oil extraction, and they will be used as good food. It doesn't cost much to feed a horse."

Xiao Shu'er has always liked animals the most, not to mention that he thinks riding a horse is very cool, so he said: "Sister, how nice it is to have a horse. When I mow the grass for Xiao Hei, I would like to bring back an extra bundle. And this horse has many It’s beautiful, and it’s very airy to ride.”

Liu Dacheng said through the window in the room: "Stop talking outside the door, let Ya'er come in quickly. Have you eaten yet? Let your eldest sister heat up the meal first."

Liu Ya hurriedly asked: "Father, have you eaten yet? I'm sorry, I came back late again, which made you worry. This is because the boss who talked about business didn't come until evening. I have been waiting, but I was actually impatient. But fortunately, the wait was not in vain, the business was done."

While talking, Liu Ya took out the 50 taels silver note that Qiniang gave her, and handed it to Liu Dacheng through the window.

Liu Dacheng didn't pick up, didn't look at it, so he pushed back and said, "Ya'er, this is hard money, look at your busy work from morning to night, dad can't help you. No matter how much the banknote is , you keep it all, dad doesn’t want it. The house is not built anymore, you can rest at home from tomorrow, don’t run around.”

Liu Ya laughed as soon as she heard it, and said: "Father, didn't Chunniu and Siping settle the calculations for building a new house? Now that I have money, why did I change my mind? Besides, I can't stay idle anymore. If I go out more, I will have money and a good life, how wonderful. If you lock me up at home, I will get sick from depression instead."

Liu Dacheng raised his face and said, "That's not okay. You have to know that if you don't come back for a while, Dad's heart will be in suspense. I hate my bad legs, and even went to the village to pick you up." Neither will work."

After finishing speaking, Liu Dacheng thumped his leg, which made people feel sad.

Liu Ya quickly ran into the house, grabbed Liu Dacheng's hand and said, "Father, what's the matter, you still blame this leg? Let's go to the doctor when we have a chance, maybe we can fix the leg. cured."

Liu Dacheng stopped his hands, his eyes were red, he looked at Liu Ya and said, "Ya'er, it's really hard for you. Dad really doesn't have one, let you carry this house alone. Dad...how can I be sorry for your death Mother."

"Mother must also hope that I will carry our family and let our family live happily." Liu Ya stuffed the silver ticket into Liu Dacheng's hand again, hoping to divert his attention, and said: " Dad, take a quick look, this is a 50 tael bank note. Our new house is here. You can praise your second girl for being capable, but don’t blame yourself. You can give birth to such a good girl like me. It’s also thanks to dad.”

But after Liu Ya finished speaking, Liu Dacheng's face turned slightly pale, and he sighed while looking at Liu Ya.Stretching out his big hand to stroke Liu Ya's hair, he murmured: "Oh, it's still hard for you, dad really loves me."

"Oh, it's not over yet." Liu Ya frowned, not because she was upset, but because she didn't know how to comfort her.He could only call Xiao Shu'er and said: "Little Shu'er, come quickly, help me persuade my father."

Xiao Shu'er helped Liu Ya tie the horse just now, and now she hurried in and said, "Father, you are embarrassing the second sister. Wouldn't it make her feel more uncomfortable to let her miss your leg with you? Eldest sister The food has been heated up, let the second sister go to eat."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Shu'er came over to pull Liuya, and said, "Second Sister, I really can't wait for you to come back, so we'll have a bite first, and then I'll go out to find you. Now go and eat quickly, I'll come Advise father."

Only then was Liu Ya able to get away, and when she went out, she did not forget to say to Liu Dacheng: "Father, don't worry, I'm fine, I think this kind of life is very fulfilling and energetic." After speaking, she went to the kitchen.

Liu Xu'er had already put the food on the table, saw Liu Ya come in and poured her a bowl of water.Then he said: "Ya'er, don't come back so late in the future, dad is thinking about you all the time. Xiao Shu'er has also gone out to look for you several times, and I am also anxious, but I don't know where to find you."

"I'm sorry, big sister, it's really my fault this time." Liu Ya quickly admitted her mistake. After all, having family members care about her is the warmest thing, and she doesn't mind it at all.

Liu Xu'er said again: "The vegetable seedlings in the front and back yards of our house have grown. If I take good care of them, I can harvest a lot of vegetables. Why don't you grow vegetables with me at home in the future."

Liu Ya laughed as soon as she heard it, and said: "Sister, I won't grow vegetables with you. But you have to learn the skill of growing vegetables as soon as possible. Come back, and buy the vegetables you grow at a high price. Our family They are all good at making money.”

"Growing vegetables can be sold for a lot of money? I see that there are many people who grow vegetables in our village, but the largest one is the Wu family. Aunt Niu's family doesn't grow many vegetables, and they can't sell much. It’s enough to cover the whole family’s expenses for a year. My vegetables can’t be better than what they grow, and our family doesn’t have any land, so can we make a fortune just relying on the vegetables in the front and back yards?”

"Yes. Sister, just trust me, I will definitely be able to sell your food at a high price." After Liu Ya finished speaking, she ate her food, and then said: "I still have two buns in my bag, please Take it out for me and eat it while it's hot."

Liu Xu'er agreed, and went to help Liu Ya get the buns.When she came back, she asked, "Ya'er, I saw that you still have a pack of medicine in your bag? Are you sick?" After speaking, Liu Xu'er hurriedly said, "I didn't go through your things, I just Open the bag and take the bun, and you can smell the smell of medicine. The medicine bag is also there, and you can see it even if you don’t look at it.”

Liu Ya shook her head and said: "It's okay, it's just a pack of medicine, don't be afraid to look at it. I bought it for Father Gao and his nephew. He is in poor health, and I happened to be going to the city. There is a pharmacy in the city that has better medicine, so I bought it for him on the way. return."
