After being forced to marry an ugly husband

Chapter 98 This horse is called Xiao Zao

Qiuniang, who was originally on the second floor, also heard the noise and came downstairs. When she reached the door, she said "Ouch" and said, "Second brother, is this the horse you bought from the county? It's really true." Spirit!"

Hua Ni also praised aloud: "This horse must be quite expensive!"

Qiu Henian smiled and touched the maroon horse's mane. The horse shook its big head, snorted, and stared curiously at the few people coming out of Xiangyun Square with its big eyes.

He looked at Qingyan and said: "The carriages in the county are too expensive. Liu Lihu knows someone in the town who happens to have some unused ones at home. I went to check them out. They are not old yet. The owner of the carriages is going to clean up the things piled on them today. , you can set up the car tomorrow."

Qingyan said "hmm" and wanted to reach out to touch the big head of the maroon horse, but for a moment he didn't dare to reach out. Qiu Henian took his hand and put it on the horse's head and said, "It has a good temper. As long as it's Don't approach it from behind, don't scare it, and it'll be fine."

Qingyan had the courage to touch it. He was a city kid and had not had the opportunity to get close to large animals before. He had ridden a horse before, but only once or twice when he was held by a herdsman on a tour of the grassland. , I feel very novel now.

Qiuniang couldn't help but touch the horse's mane and asked, "Second brother, this horse looks young."

Qiu Henian said "Yes", "I have just turned three, and I only started pulling the cart with a camel at the end of last year." He paused, and then said: "When you put the cart on tomorrow, I will drive you in a carriage sooner or later."

Qiuniang said happily: "That's great, Aunt Li and I borrowed the money from the second sister-in-law." She remembered something, "By the way, second brother, if you are busy one day, Sanyao will also drive and feed the horses, okay?" help."

Qiu Henian agreed.

A few people had a conversation at the door. Qiuniang looked at the sky and said, "Second sister-in-law, you and second brother should go back first. It's almost time. You are healthy. You should be stable for the first three months and don't get tired."

Hua Ni also said: "Shopkeeper, just go back, we are both in the store, don't worry."

Qingyan didn't pretend to be pretentious with the two of them. She responded, went back to get her things, and was about to leave.

Qiu Henian took out a paper bag tied with hemp rope from the pocket on his horse, handed it to Qiuniang, and said, "This is the jujube cake and cloud cake from Hexiangzhai, let you try it."

Qiuniang accepted it happily. Huani was not yet twenty years old and was at a gluttonous age. When she heard that there were pastries to eat, her eyes brightened up and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. She felt so happy.

Qingyan's eyes lingered on the paper bag for a while, then he looked away and looked at the tips of his shoes.

Qiu Henian straightened the saddle, held his waist first, and helped him onto the horse. Qingyan nervously grabbed the armrest of the saddle.

It wasn't until Qiu Henian put the stirrups on the horse, sat behind him, and wrapped his hands around him to hold the reins that he relaxed slightly.

Qiuniang and Huani watched them leave and returned to the store. They washed their hands and opened the paper bag. Qiuniang asked Huani to take it first. The young woman took a piece of white cloud-like cloud cake and put it in He squinted his eyes and said, "It's so delicious!"
