Chapter 67 Buying Cows
What do you want to do?
Several people were stunned, they really hadn't considered this issue, or maybe they had, but what's the point?
Mei Luoxing said directly, "When girls grow up, don't they get married and have children, then raise their husbands and raise their children? What else do you want?"
That’s what everyone around me says!
This answer was expected, but when I heard it, I felt very uncomfortable!
Melome said: "No, that's not the case. Eldest sister, second sister, and aunt, I think girls should not be limited to a small place. We can also have ideals and pursuits like men, and we can do what we like.
, instead of being trapped between the stove and raising children.”
She felt that it was necessary to discuss this issue with several people, as it might be related to their lives.
Do you have ideals, career and pursuits?
Several people have never thought about it, but now they feel shocked when they hear it from their sister (little niece).
"Third sister, you'd better say less of such shocking words, otherwise I'm afraid... I'm afraid you'll get into trouble." Mei Luotao reminded in a low voice.
She was worried that if others heard her, her little sister would be drowned by the spittle.
This damn ancient time, this damn ancient thought!
"I'll just talk about it at home. Whoever has nothing to do can go out and make a loud statement."
Melome rolled her eyes and continued: "I just want to tell you, don't be limited by your current thinking. If you look at the streets, there are also women doing business. If you look at some big cities, there are also women who are wives.
, in some countries, women can even be high officials and emperors."
Mei Luoxing was curious: "Third sister? Can women really be high officials and emperors?"
I only see women doing business, but I don’t really see women becoming high officials or emperors. As for women being wives, it seems that there really is such a person—the founding princess.
"Sanya, is there really a woman who becomes the emperor? You are not tricking us, are you?"
Mei Qihai was also puzzled, where did this little niece hear the story?
Mei Qiying: "Don't listen to Sanya's bragging. Who doesn't know that she loves to brag the most."
Melotao smiled softly: "My sister-in-law is right."
Mei Laoer, who was following behind, asked confusedly: "What are Sanya bragging about again?"
She is telling the truth, really!
Why doesn't anyone believe it?
Seeing that no one believed in her, Merome said angrily: "Why don't you believe me? There are all kinds of wonders in the world. Just because you don't know it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If you think I'm bragging, I suggest you read more books."
Now, you will naturally know a lot of things.”
Mei Luoxing: "The uncle has been studying for so many years, how come he doesn't know anything?"
Melo Mei: "He just studies hard, his limbs are industrious, and he doesn't distinguish between grains. He is a rebel. Even if he only has milk, he is treated as a treasure. Didn't he realize that Brother Du has already passed the exam? He still works with Aunt Wang, and
When you have nothing to do, you not only go to bookstores to read books, but also copy books to make money. Can people be the same?"
I knew that Du Lanfeng made money by copying books, but I still listened to what Aunt Wang said, because Aunt Wang showed off her son's filial piety everywhere, and she never forgot about my mother after earning money from copying books, and even bought her a hairpin belt.
Mei Luotao said subconsciously: "It's different, Brother Du is the best."
After saying that, she found that everyone was looking at her, and she couldn't help but blush, "I...I heard what Third Sister said..." and then ran back to the house quickly.
"..." What did she say about her?
She didn't say anything - it was an injustice to her!
What Melo Mei said was the opposite. Boss Mei was discussing a problem with his father-in-law when he suddenly sneezed. He was so embarrassed that he hurriedly covered his face with his sleeves.
Looking at his father-in-law's scrutinizing eyes, he couldn't help but said: "Maybe I was blown by the wind recently and caught a little cold."
Master Ji said calmly: "Take care of yourself."
Then the two started discussing things again.
Mei Lao suddenly went crazy after failing the exam. After being slapped several times by Mei Lao Er and Mei Lao San and being fed half a bowl of excrement, he has been in a state of depression and almost fell ill again.
I was worried about being filled with fecal water again, so I calmed down.
After resting at home for two days, I came to the town to find my father-in-law and wanted to know why I failed the exam.
He asked someone to find connections and paid him money, so why couldn't he, Du Xiucai, who was next to him, be on the list? So Boss Mei came to the door angrily, but the other party just told him flatly, "Who told you that you don't have enough money?"
'
Boss Mei felt that he had been deceived, but the other party was his father-in-law and his wife, so it was hard to say anything. He could only say that he came here to ask for advice.
The two discussed for a while, and after seeing that nothing happened, they left.
After Boss Mei left, the boy on the side said: "Master, didn't you say that my uncle's article was flashy? Why now..." Kindly guide?
Master Ji: "He has taken so much money. As a master, it is natural for him to give him good guidance. After all, it may just be this time."
The boy scratched his head, feeling that he didn't quite understand what his master said.
Master Ji glanced at the boy next to him and ordered: "Go and ask Madam and Miss to pack their things. We will leave here tomorrow."
The lady here naturally refers to Ji's younger sister, Miss Ji Er.
There are three brothers and sisters in the Ji family, Ji is the eldest sister.
"Leave? Master? This..."
The boy was confused, why did he have to leave so suddenly?
Master Ji: "You just go and tell my wife and young lady that we are going to the capital to join the eldest son."
Master Ji had a son who became a minor official in the capital.
"What about the eldest lady?" The master didn't tell his uncle just now that he wanted to leave!
"The eldest lady has her own husband's family. Why does she care about so much? Go and inform Madam immediately."
Boss Mei here didn't know that his father-in-law would be leaving soon. He thought that he really failed due to lack of money. He couldn't help but secretly hate Du Lanfeng in his heart. He only felt that he was very scheming and not only spent a large amount of money
Taking care of relationships and treating everyone like monkeys!
"Dear Du Lanfeng, don't let me catch you, otherwise..." Boss Mei was filled with hatred.
While cursing and cursing, he found a bullock cart and drove home. When he got home, it was already dark.
When Ji saw her husband coming back, she hurriedly greeted him, helped him take off his coat, and said: "Today the village chief announced three things. I'm afraid we will have to relocate the whole village after the year."
Boss Mei was puzzled: "What is so serious?"
He was fine when he went out.
Ji told what the village chief said, and finally said: "I still have a brother in the capital. How about we leave in the next few days and go to the capital to join him?"
Apart from this, Ji couldn't think of any good solution.
Boss Mei frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I'll go discuss it with my parents first and see what they say. If it doesn't work, we'll leave first, but the clan members are all here. If we run away by ourselves, I'm afraid we will be exterminated by the clan leader.
"
He doesn't care whether others exterminate their clans or not, but he cannot be exterminated, otherwise he may not be able to take the imperial examination in the future.
Emperor Su Xingguo valued his family very seriously, and he could not be exterminated if he wanted to take the imperial examination.
………
The next day, Mei Laoer and two sisters, Mei Luotao, went to help in the middle of the night. As soon as dawn broke and the rooster crowed, they took the big baby out and buried it according to the Taoist priest's instructions.
Seeing that it was getting brighter, Mei Laoer thought about what happened last night and returned home early alone.
When I came back, I found that Merome hadn't gotten up yet!
This kid!
"Sanya, didn't you say you were going to buy a cow yesterday? Why don't you get up yet?"
Mei Lao Er shouted outside the door. Mero Mei, who was dreaming about eating dumplings, was startled and hurriedly pushed away the quilt and jumped up.
Yes, she is going to buy a cow today!
"Slow down, the clothes are here."
Mei Qiying was sitting in the room embroidering a handkerchief with her back to the bed. When she heard her little niece getting up, she quickly put down her embroidery cloth, stood up, took a set of clothes from the cabinet and threw it to her.
Seeing that Merome was dressed, she went to get a comb and said, "Come here, let me comb your hair."
Mei Qiying did not go out today and was doing embroidery work at home.
I saw my little niece always combing her hair in braids, so I couldn't help but comb her hair often.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Melo Mei put on her shoes and sat obediently by the dressing table, letting Mei Qiying move on her head.
Mei Qiying worked very quickly, and in just a few strokes she gave Mei Luomei a double bun, with beads and flowers on both sides and bells hung up.
When he shook his head, the bells on both sides jingled, which was very pleasant.
Melome looked in the mirror.
Well, quite cute!
The two took the village ox cart to the town and found that not many people opened shops in the town, and many shops were even closed. They went to the cattle and horse market. Well, no one was selling livestock.
The two had no choice but to find the bullock cart again, and hurried all the way to the county town. They paid the fare, asked for directions, and finally found the place where livestock was sold in the county town.
When she came to the cattle and horse market, Merome felt uncomfortable all over her body. Three words - dirty, messy and poor.
The weather was hot and the air was not fresh yet. When I took a breath, it smelled like cow dung and horse dung. Mosquitoes were flying everywhere. It gave me goosebumps just looking at it.
Melome muttered in her heart, 'This environment is too bad! Don't you even clean the environment?'
She didn't understand the ancient livestock market and wondered whether ancient people were so unhygienic.
"Sanya, it's better for dad to carry you away!"
It was also Mei Laoer's first time to come to the livestock market. Looking at such a dirty place, he felt disgusted even by a rural person.
Seeing his daughter covering her nose and not knowing where to put her feet, he had no choice but to pick her up.
Seeing her father hugging her, Melome didn't show any pretense and let him hug her.
It's better than having a few cow dung cakes stuck to your feet.
Mei Laoer walked with his daughter in his arms and looked at it, and finally his eyes stopped on a big bull.
This cow is strong and tall.
He put down his daughter and walked around the cow a few times. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became. He moved the cow's mouth away and looked at the teeth. Then he asked the old man selling the cow, "How do you sell this cow?"
When the old man saw someone asking about the price, he hesitated and said, "One hundred taels, with a car, do you think that's okay?"
When he asked this question, the old man had no idea because many people had already come to see it. In the end, they were all frightened by the price and left without even negotiating.
A cow seller next to him sneered: "Haha, old man, one hundred taels, who will buy it from you? I don't want sixty-two cows, let alone one hundred taels."
Although prices are soaring now, they are still not as high as a cow costing one hundred taels of silver.
