448 Buying a Horse

“You can try, just be careful not to fall,” Liu Guixia said with a smile. “It’s best to use a horse carriage instead. It’ll be safer.”

“Mother, how can you be like this?” Xue Wufu was unhappy. “If you have a horse, you should learn how to ride it. Otherwise, it would be such a waste. Riding a horse will be faster than riding a carriage.”

Xue Erfu laughed. “Don’t mind him. Let him fall a few times. Once he knows the pain, he won’t want to learn anymore.”

“Erfu, why won’t you support me?” Xue Wufu immediately said. “You should be saying that I shouldn’t give up even after falling a few times! I’m not afraid of falling! I must learn how to ride a horse! Riding a horse is much more impressive than driving a carriage!”

“You just want to show off.” Xue Erfu ruffled his brother’s hair and messed it up.

It turned into a chicken’s nest.

“Erfu!” Xue Wufu shouted in anger.

Liu Guixia and the others looked on and delightfully laughed.

Seeing that Xue Yan was still looking at Sanfu, Jiang Yue hesitated for a moment before saying to Xue Sifu, “Sifu, if you want to buy a horse tomorrow, can Xue Yan and I go with Sanfu? It doesn’t matter if we’re at the stall now.

“Sure,” Xue Sifu didn’t have any objections.

On the other hand, Xue Yan froze for a moment before turning to Jiang Yue. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something to Jiang Yue, but in the end, he did not say anything.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although they had decided to sell strawberry ice, there were only a few strawberries in the small basket. Each of them could finish one or two strawberries in one sitting. They won’t have enough to sell in town. They would have to wait two days for the strawberries to ripen.

“When the strawberries ripened, there would be more than this amount. By then, we can sell the extra in town.”

The next day, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan accompanied Xue Sanfu to the town to buy horses as agreed.

Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, and Xue Sanfu didn’t go to their stall. Instead, they got off the ox cart and went to the horse stall.

The horse and cow sellers were actually at the same place. Xue Sifu and the others had been here before when they were buying cows, which was why Xue Sifu knew that good horses could be bought for a few dozen silver.

There were no particularly good horses in the town, such as the thousand-mile horse.

“This way, please. The stable is over there.” When the horse seller heard that they were here to buy horses, he immediately invited them to the stable.

“Follow me closely.” When Xue Sanfu followed the horse seller, he turned back and said this to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan.

“I understand, Sanfu.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both agreed.

They then went to the stable together.

The stable was divided into three parts — low-grade, medium-grade, and high-grade horses.

Although they were divided, there were actually only a few of them. In the waiting area, there were only three high-grade horses. There were eight lower grade horses.

A low-grade horse could be bought for a dozen silver, a medium-grade horse was 30 to 40 silver, and a high-grade horse was 60 to 70 silver.

Xue Yan led Jiang Yue and followed Xue Sanfu. Looking at these horses, he suddenly remembered this thousand mile horse in his last life that he could have gifted to Sanfu. However, Sanfu would have already passed away. If Sanfu was still here, he would have liked it very much.

He first looked at the three different grades of horses. With the first two kinds of horses as a comparison, Xue Sanfu stopped when he reached the stable for the high-grade horses, not wanting to go back.
