Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World
Chapter 59 Buying a Car
As soon as Zhao Ning walked out of the examination room, he swayed and almost fell to the ground. His bookboy Bizhu hurriedly supported him, with a worried face on his face, Young master, are you alright?
Zhao Ning's eyes were bright, and he grabbed Bizhu tightly and asked, Where is Mr. Gu? Has he come out?
There were actually two questions in this exam that he reviewed in the past two days. When Zhao Ning saw the questions, he was almost crazy with joy, and almost couldn't help pinching his waist and laughing.
Young Master Gu came out before noon, so he must be at the inn now. Compared with the young master's embarrassment, the weak Gu Jingyun looked much better.
Zhao Ning was half-supported and half-carried by the book boy, got into the donkey cart and drove back to the inn.
The book boy was sweating profusely and said, My lord, I'll show you the little one, please show it to the doctor.
Zhao Ning filled half a pot of water, shook his head excitedly and said, No, I'm fine, just rest for a while.
He still has to go to Gu Jingyun to check the answer, it depends on the doctor's delay.
This is the last exam of the hospital exam. All the examinees are relaxed. A small number of them fainted and were taken to the doctor's clinic by their family members or servants. Most of them got together to answer the answers even though they were exhausted. Good to make sure you are not wrong.
As for Gu Jingyun, who is number one in the government examination and whose talent has been unanimously recognized by everyone, his test paper is what everyone most wants to refer to.
So everyone rushed back to the inn excitedly, and the first thing they did was to find Gu Jingyun.
The clerk hurriedly stopped everyone and said: Mr. Gu is not feeling well. Mrs. Gu sent him to the hospital, but he is not in the room.
Everyone was startled, Mr. Gu is not feeling well? Did he fail the exam?
The clerk was sweating profusely and said, That's not true. Young Master Gu's face is quite calm, but he has a stomachache after eating something cold, so Mrs. Gu escorted him to see the doctor.
Everyone relaxed, but they felt a little disappointed in their hearts, thinking that Gu Jingyun failed the exam.
Gu Jingyun was not there, so everyone could only wait for Gu Jingyun to come back in the lobby while discussing.
People from other inns came here admiringly. They were a little disappointed when they saw that Gu Jingyun was not there. They joined in when they heard the people next to them discussing the test papers.
In the end, countless candidates gathered in the Yuelai Inn, and it was overcrowded.
The guys almost broke their legs, and the shopkeeper laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes while doing the calculations. Sure enough, he was right to waive the bill for Gu Jingyun, and he can earn a lot just tonight.
Many of the candidates came here after leaving the stage. They were hungry and thirsty, so they had to eat and drink...
Those who feel that they do better in the exam have to drink to entertain themselves, and those who feel that they do poorly in the exam have to drink to soothe their sorrows...
Before waiting for the next year, Gu Jingyun created so many business opportunities for him, and it really is right to be free.
At this time, Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were choosing means of transportation in the bull market.
Although the bull market is called a bull market, it does not only sell cattle, but all large livestock, such as horses, donkeys, mules and sheep.
They want to go from Guangzhou to Hangzhou, they can take the waterway to land, or they can take the land alone.
In terms of comfort and speed, it is naturally better to go by water first and then by land, but Gu Jingyun came out partly for his uncle and others, and partly for study tours. What's the point of staying on the boat all the time?
So Gu Jingyun decided that they would go by land this time.
Then there must be a means of transportation. Li Baolu can't push the scooter all the way. How long will it take to get to Hangzhou?
Gu Jingyun wanted to buy a donkey, but he couldn't afford a horse, let alone a horse.
A good horse costs a hundred taels of silver, and a poor horse costs around eighty taels. Every day there must be good fodder, which is equivalent to raising one more person.
Now that they decided not to send money from Qiongzhou, they had to save some money.
Compared with horses, donkeys are not only cheaper, but also easier to feed.
But Li Baolu took a fancy to the mule.
The two were at a stalemate for a moment.
Li Baolu has a good reason. Not only is a mule more beautiful than a donkey, but it is also more durable than a donkey. Horse mules are stronger and more expensive, so she doesn't think about them, but donkey mules run faster than donkeys, and donkey mules are also cheaper than donkeys.
Gu Jingyun's reason was straightforward and rude, The mule has such a temper, can you tame it? If you use it as a harness, I'm afraid it's not you driving it, but it will dump us.
Li Baolu turned her head and stared at a donkey and mule.
A donkey mule is a breed of a female donkey mated with a male horse. It looks like a donkey but is taller than a donkey. At this time, a pair of big horse eyes stared at Li Baolu, kicked her legs irritably, and even sprayed her twice. The horse tied next to it was even more tempered.
The horse dealer immediately came over with a whip, and said with a smile to the two children: Don't look at it as a bad temper, but it doesn't have to be said for its work. It runs fast and durable. It is very practical whether it is used to plow the land or pull a cart. , if it is not obedient, it will be pumped straight, and if it is pumped too much, it will be obedient.
Gu Jingyun sneered at Li Baolu, Are you willing to smoke it?
Li Baolu touched the mule's neck, then turned to look at the ugly little donkey, and said in confusion: But the donkey is too ugly and lazy, we use it to pull the cart, are you sure you can still sit on it after putting the luggage on it? The two of us?
Gu Jingyun was silent for a moment, then involuntarily glanced at the beautiful and docile horse aside.
Li Baolu also drooled looking at the horse, her master used to brag to her that he used to have a bay red horse, tall and majestic, running like lightning in an instant, but unfortunately the horse was also divided up after he was arrested, but who it fell to hands.
Li Baolu has always dreamed of owning a horse.
Gu Jingyun saw that she wanted to grab the horse's neck, twitched the corners of his mouth and said, Forget it, let's buy a mule. If it can't be tamed, then sell it and buy a donkey.
Horse mules are a breed of mating female horses and male mules. They are more similar to horses, so the price is more expensive. One costs 25 taels, while donkey mules are cheaper. Li Baolu only needs 22 taels after bargaining with a horse dealer .
After paying the money, I picked another car and had it remodeled to fit the mule just right.
Because it was going to be a long journey, Li Baolu went to buy a big tarpaulin and asked someone to nail it to the roof of the car. If it rained, just put the tarpaulin down to keep out the rain, so you don't have to worry about the car being wet by the rain.
When the sky was getting dark, the young couple finally finished their travel tools, and Li Baolu happily drove the mule cart back to the inn.
The mule I just bought was quite obedient, and ran forward obediently, but Gu Jingyun's face was almost blue when he was sitting in the car - he was bumped!
After all, Li Baolu had never learned to drive, even though the roads in the city were smooth, they were still so bumpy that Gu Jingyun almost vomited.
Li Baolu also noticed this problem, and quickly reviewed: I will take the car out of the city to practice tomorrow, and I must learn the technique well before the official departure.
Gu Jingyun nodded slowly with a blue face, Stop at the intersection ahead, I'd better walk back slowly.
...The intersection ahead is beyond the inn.
Gu Jingyun got out of the car in grief and indignation. He absolutely refused to admit that he didn't know the way, but was dizzy from the shaking!
Gu Jingyun entered the store with a green face, and was taken aback by the crowds of people in the inn.
With sharp ears, he heard someone talking about the topic he was working on today, and he also saw some people arguing with others because of disagreements...
He realized something, turned around and walked out, pulled Li Baolu who was about to enter the inn and said, Let's enter the inn through the back door, give the guy some rewards, and ask him to hide our return to the inn.
Li Baolu looked into the inn with her head, and was also taken aback. She hurriedly dragged Gu Jingyun to the back door, nodded and said, Don't worry, I'll find the buddy in a while, you just stay in the room and don't come out, I'll go to the street I'll buy you something to eat.
Li Baolu is a woman, as long as she is slightly modified, no one will recognize her. Thanks to the defense of men and women, scholars will not stare at creatures whose gender is female.
Sending Gu Jingyun back to the room and asking him to lock the door, Li Baolu immediately went to the street to buy two bowls of wontons and a few packs of dim sum, and then went back to the inn to catch a clerk and asked him to take care of her mule and hide the news of their return .
The man glanced at the handful of copper coins in his hand, patted his chest and said, Madam Gu, don't worry, with me here, no one will think of Mr. Gu before the curfew.
Li Baolu breathed a sigh of relief, took the food and went back to her room.
After dinner, Gu Jingyun stayed in the house listening to the commotion below, quite a sense of comfort in the wild where I made tea and watched the cranes while the building was full of wind and rain outside.
Holding a cup of hot tea, Li Baolu sighed comfortably: Tomorrow, let's get up early and go out. What if people are stuck in the room? She will definitely not be able to squeeze around Gu Jingyun when there are so many people, what if something happens? ?
Gu Jingyun nodded, But after tonight, everyone should calm down. What's more, the results of the college examination will be announced in three days, and it won't be long.
Gu Jingyun thought well. After a night of excited discussions, the candidates calmed down a lot the next day.
There is no way, because most of the people slept until the sun was up, and some people simply slept until the night. After three consecutive days of exams, everyone was already tired. Last night, they were discussing the answers, drinking and arguing, and their energy was exhausted. Yes, it's good to be able to wake up today.
And Gu Jingyun accompanied Li Baolu to go out to practice driving early in the morning.
Li Baolu first went back to the bull market to consult the horse dealers, and wrote down all the precautions for driving before leaving the city.
In fact, driving is a process of communication with her own mule, let it go as it pleases, as if commanded by the arm, Li Baolu will be considered successful.
The mule was indeed very disobedient, and as soon as it came out of the city and saw a wide area, it spread its feet and was about to run away. Li Baolu held on to the rein tightly, but instead of hitting it, she directly grabbed the rein on its nose and slammed it hard. The mule knelt down on its front legs.
The mule raised its head and roared, Li Baolu used his internal strength, stood firmly with his feet apart, and then pressed down hard with his hand, directly pulling his head off...
Going back and forth like this seven or eight times, the mule knew that he couldn't compete with Li Baolu, so he gradually obeyed.
But it will still rebel from time to time. What Li Baolu has to do is to compare patience and endurance with it. Every time it loses its temper, it restrains its temper and directly kneels it on the ground, making it immobile and yielding. Over time , it can understand that it can't lose its temper.
