Chapter 33 Chapter 034
Section 034 Buying a Cow
"Uncle, if you can't stand it, you can buy this child! Forty cents is not enough for you to go to a restaurant!" Anxiu said coldly, "I have money, but I don't pity this child. Between the two ,Do not conflict!"

"It's really a femme fatale."

"So ruthless! The richer people are, the more stingy they are."

There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, while someone touched An Xiu's cloth bag, the beautiful boy still knelt there motionless, neither looked at An Xiu, nor pulled her, just like that expressionless.

Anxiu keenly sensed that someone was pulling her bag, and her heart tightened immediately.He wanted to punch him, but the next moment, the pickpocket behind him yelled and fell to the ground with his nose bent and his face covered in blood.

Anxiu spat at him, and was about to thank her benefactor when she saw a man in official uniform step on the pickpocket and said angrily, "Second Zhang, what did grandpa tell you last time? When I see you stealing again, How To?"

"I... I didn't steal it... Which of your eyes saw me steal it?" The man on the ground with blood on his face yelled, pointing at An Xiu, "She still has her bag on her body, how do you say I stole it?"

"You did steal it!" An Xiu was also angry, "Not stealing and not stealing are two different things, you call it attempted theft."

The middle-aged man who had just blocked Anxiu's way saw that the pickpocket was caught, and secretly wanted to slip away.The man in the official uniform had sharp eyesight and quick hands. He let go of Zhang Lao Er under his feet, and with a wave of his leg, he swept the middle-aged man to the ground across the crowd.

Zhang Laoer was let go by the man in the official uniform, got up and ran away, when two yamen servants surrounded him and pinned him to the ground.The faces of five or six people in the crowd changed in fright, regardless of the two people who were caught, they all scattered away.The man in the official uniform knows how to catch thieves and capture kings, so he ignored these little guys and just held down the two main criminals.

Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the beautiful young man probably couldn't sell it. He was disappointed, and knelt back beside his father's body expressionlessly.

"I have told you two many times that you are not allowed to sneak around in the jurisdiction of grandpa. It has been ignored? Take it back and teach you slowly, what is obedience!" The man in the official uniform said angrily, waved his hand, and the yamen guards escorted him The thief turned around and went back to the government office.

Anxiu hurried to catch up: "Thank you, Mr. Guan..." He was about to praise this Mr. Guan as a hero, with extraordinary martial arts skills, but he is a god descending from the mortal world.

The man in the official uniform looked Anxiu up and down, and vented coldly: "Weak girl, carrying a lot of money, showing off everywhere? Can dogs eat her brains?" Before Anxiu could answer, he turned and left.

Anxiu was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had been scolded. Looking at the back of the man in official uniform, she slandered weakly in her heart: "Nimma, you have no brains! Sis is not showing off, saying that you are proving your strength!"

Well, up to now, Anxiu admits that her behavior in the clothing store was a foolish show off.She hugged the blue cloth bag tightly in her arms, maybe there are other thieves eyeing her, she must go home as soon as possible, otherwise there will be absurd things in the future.

It's just that man in official uniform, will you die if you remind me in a gentle tone?

"Yu'er, have we exposed our wealth to attract people's attention?" Anxiu felt guilty in her heart, and felt that her behavior in the clothing store was extremely stupid.She was so enraged by that guy in the bank, she never thought of such a consequence.Besides, she really doesn't have any concept of money, the 50 taels of silver are like 500 yuan to her.

Who takes 500 yuan as a treasure, and is careful to guard against thieves?Not 5000 million!

"Sister Xiu, let's go back and bury the silver, so no one can take it away!" He Yu'er reminded An Xiu in a childish voice.

"Why don't we spend it all, and others won't be able to take it away!" An Xiu laughed.She said it to He Shusheng on purpose.The 50 taels of silver still have to be taken back to build a house and repair the yard, how can it be spent.

Sure enough, He Shusheng believed it was true, and immediately jumped up: "Xiu, are you crazy?"

That handsome man was not one of these thieves, so everyone retreated, but he still knelt there, staring at the ground expressionlessly.An Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, such a beautiful man finally didn't ruin his image completely, otherwise she would feel distressed.

There was a young dandy passing by, with a fat body and wine stains all over his body, he stretched a blue silk robe like a cube, he stared at the beautiful boy: "What a handsome beauty! You sell yourself to be buried!" Father, how much money? This young master bought you!"

"I won't sell it to you!" the beautiful young man said quietly without raising his head.

Anxiu didn't go very far, when she heard this sentence, her feet froze.No wonder his father was about to die, but he still didn't sell it, so he was picking the buyer!
Not wanting to meddle in other people's business, An Xiu dragged He Yu'er and He Shusheng straight to the bull market.

The bull market is still full of people coming and going, and it is very lively.The nearby market is the largest in Wangji, so a big market like the bull market and horse market is located in Wangji.

Anxiu looked left and right, and had no idea of ​​the quality of the cattle. She relied entirely on her eyes to decide which one she liked.

In the westernmost corner, an old farmer is smoking dry tobacco with a Newton. Unlike other cattle dealers, his cattle are fat and strong, and it seems that they are well-served.As a creature like a cow, as long as there is time to raise it, it can be raised very strong.

The cattle of cattle dealers are raised in groups, and some straw is used to ensure the nutrition needed by the cattle.Compared with the cattle in the same bull market, this old farmer's cattle look comfortable.

"Old man, how do you sell this cow?" An Xiu stepped forward and asked.

The old farmer raised his eyes to look at Anxiu, looking very impatient: "Eight taels of silver!"

"It's too expensive!" An Xiu didn't speak, but He Shusheng shouted, "Xiu is too expensive. When Dad bought the cow, it was only three taels of silver."

Prices are subject to inflation.How long has it been since He Youbao bought that cow?Prices back then were definitely not comparable to what they are now.But eight taels of silver is indeed a bit expensive, beyond Anxiu's budget.Anxiu smiled, didn't answer, and turned to look at other stalls.

Seeing Anxiu and the others turn around and leave, the old farmer showed a sad and reluctant expression on his face.The calf he bought four years ago and fed it himself has grown fat and strong like it is today.His sons are not filial, he makes a living by plowing for others, and this cow is his only relative.

Now the sons are planning on the cow, saying that they will give him food every month, forcing him to sell the cow.He disagreed, and the eldest son said coldly: "Father, do you really want to recognize us? In the future, you will be a hundred years old, and we won't care about you."

What can he do if he doesn't give birth to a child?The sons even wanted to take away the last bit of property from him.The old man couldn't beat them.A hundred years later, no one carried him up the mountain, how would he be reborn as a human in his next life?

In this era, people have a saying: after the death of an old man, his son must carry him up the mountain himself, otherwise he cannot be reborn as a human in his next life.That's why people are crazy about having sons.If the daughter-in-law of any family cannot give birth to a son, the people in Zhuangzi will say: their family must have committed evil things in their previous life, and God will punish them.

Thinking of this, the old man took a puff of dry cigarette, sighed after a while, stretched out his hand to touch the cow, full of reluctance.
