The father and daughter followed Deng Yaren to the backyard. Behind the tooth shop was a large three-entry courtyard, where the maids and servants of Deng Yaren lived. There was also a livestock shed in the backyard, which contained the food sold in the tooth shop. oxen and horses.

The two of them followed the Deng Ya people along the way and could see the maids and servants who had been trained by the Deng Ya people standing at the door or working. Everyone would secretly peek at them.

Seeing Wen Yao looking around, Deng Yaren said with a smile: "Miss Wen, would you like to buy a personal maid? My maid is guaranteed to be capable and loyal."

Wen Yao was stunned for a moment and waved his hand: "No, no, we are just a family with mud legs, there is no place for a maid."

After saying that, the father and daughter looked at each other.

Wenyao: This is the feudal era with no human rights.

Wen Xiuyi sighed helplessly.

When they arrived at the backyard, the Dengya people asked people to open the door of the livestock shed. There were special people cleaning and taking care of it, so it was not so dirty.

There are mostly horses in the backyard, and there are only two or three cattle scattered in the cowshed in the corner, and one looks like it was just born.

"There are only these three cows left. Brother Wen, take a look and see which one you like. I'll give you a cheaper price." Deng Yaren said.

Wen Xiuyi turned around and studied it. Among the three cows, the yellow cow was the largest and looked the most energetic. Of the other two, one was small and the other looked weaker than the yellow cow.

"Don't worry, the three cows are all good cows. This one is older, more than three years old. This one is small, only a few months old. This one is a newly grown cow, young and strong. Of course, The price is also the most expensive." Dengya people introduced the situation of the three cows.

Wen Xiuyi stood next to Wen Yao and bumped her with his elbow: "Which one do you like?"

Wen Yao gave him a calm look, then looked at Deng Yaren, with a smile on his face, and asked: "Uncle Deng, how much do these three cows cost each?"

"The first three-year-old is 15 taels, and the lowest is 14 taels. The young and strong one who has just grown up is 18 taels. The smallest one is cheaper, only 12 taels. Because he is young, it will take some time before he can work. , so it is cheaper to buy, but few people buy calves back home, and those who do buy them always buy big ones." said the Dengya native.

Wen Yao fell in love with that young man.

"Uncle Deng, can't we have fewer cows?" Wen Yao asked, pointing to the big ox.

Deng Yaren touched his short little goatee and smiled: "Girl, it's not that I don't want to give you a discount. I bought this cow until now. Not to mention the price of the cow, I have raised it for so long. Forage, labor and labor are all costs.

And you see, how well I have raised this cow. It is disease-free and strong. It is an absolute master at work. It is just the right age now, so I can go to the fields directly after buying it. "

Wen Yao tugged at Wen Xiu Yi's sleeve. Wen Xiu Yi understood. He cleared his throat and said, "Shopkeeper Deng, we have just met each other. There will be many opportunities to buy and sell with you in the future, so you can Give us the most realistic price, and if it works, we will take the cow back today."

"This..." Deng Yaren was still hesitant. He looked at the father and daughter and thought of Shopkeeper Qiu who had brought them here.

Those who hang out in Yunwu Town have a way of knowing things that others don't know. He also knows the background of the two people in Jishi Hall.

This family seems to have an unusual relationship with them, and this person's son is still studying medicine under Dr. Jin. As the saying goes, no one should offend the doctor. For that matter, this is a good relationship. Opportunity.

"Forget it, I think this girl really likes her, so let's do it, 17 taels, it really can't be any less. If it's less, I really have to lose money." Seeing Wenyao's mouth tightening, Deng Yaren continued: "But, the price Although it can’t be any less, I’ll give you an extra ox cart, and you won’t have to pay for the cart, girl, how about it?”

The elegant brows visible to the naked eye relaxed, and the Deng Yaren smiled.

Wen Yao thought for a long time and nodded: "Okay, then it's 17 taels. I'm afraid I have to ask Uncle Deng to teach me how to drive the car."

She and Wen Xiuyi don't know how to drive cattle.

Wen Xiuyi had herded cattle when he was a child, but herding cattle and driving were two different things.

The Dengya people readily agreed, and asked the people in charge of the livestock shed to bring out the big oxen, and then brought them a bullock cart and yoked it, and told the man to teach Wen Xiuyi how to drive the cart seriously.

Wen Yao followed him to the front hall to pay the bill and sign the paperwork.

"Girl, if you want to buy anything from now on, just come to Uncle Deng. Uncle Deng, I'm not exaggerating here. I can get you whatever you want." Deng Yaren smiled and watched Wenyao sign and deposit money to pay. .

Unexpectedly, this girl could already write well at such a young age. This made Deng Yaren very happy. He knew he was right. This family must not be simple.

Wen Yao happily paid 17 taels of silver and nodded: "That's natural. I will inevitably trouble Uncle Deng in the future."

"Good talk, good talk."

Wen Yao waited for Wen Xiuyi in Yahang for more than an hour, and finally learned how to drive the ox cart. The father and daughter said goodbye to the Dengya people, and drove the ox cart slowly to the dock.

Wen Nong's eyes almost dropped to the ground when he saw the cow.

"Uncle, what are you doing?" If you are going to die, you will definitely be scolded when you get home.

Wen Xiuyi patted the rhubarb and praised it with a smile: "How is it? This is rhubarb, from our family."

Wen Nong was shocked. Even the six sons came over and touched the rhubarb here and there with envy: "Sir, you really bought this."

A good cow costs more than ten taels of silver. The Wen family bought it as soon as they asked for it. How can it not make people envious?

Although Wen Nong was afraid of being scolded when he went back, when he saw such a good cow, he couldn't help but touch it too.

Although Rhubarb looks big, he is very docile and is not annoyed when being touched by the two people. He even made a huffing sound from his nose as a response.

"Uncle, how much did you spend on it?" Wen Nong asked.

"Seventeen taels, including the car." Wen Xiuyi said without thinking. He was not the one paying anyway, so he didn't feel bad.

Wen Nong was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out when he heard the price.

"Uncle, you're done." For 17 taels of silver, I bought a cow. When I got home, I and I would definitely bury my uncle.

Wen Xiuyi sat leisurely on the stool and waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's not what I paid for."

Wen Nong turned to look at Wen Yao: "..." Suddenly he felt sympathy for his sister.

Soon, when Wen Xiuyi stared at the two of them and asked them to report on their studies in the past few days, Wen Nong finally accepted that his family bought the cow. Although the uncle bought it, they could still use it.
