After transmigrating into a book, she became the farmer's wife of the villain

Chapter 68
"I... I can't help it?"

The old man shrank his neck, choked up and said, "This cow is the lifeline of our family, and we have relied on it to pull carts for two years. If it weren't for the lack of harvest in the field, the family would have no way to survive. I didn't even think about selling it to the old man." it."

He pointed to the ox cart on one side and showed it to Mei Laoer: "Look, my ox cart has a shed, which can keep out the wind and rain. I haven't bought it for a long time. It's well cared for. It's still new. When I bought it It also cost more than 20 taels of silver."

Mei's second son hadn't spoken yet, but the cow seller next to him continued: "Don't listen to him, guest, come and see my cow. It has thick legs and feet, and it has good teeth. Don't look at it's thin body. It's hard to work in the field. If you are a good player, you will definitely not lose money if you buy this cow from me."

As soon as these words came out, the old man shrugged his head.

This cow can't be sold again today!
Mei Laoer frowned, he didn't know how to make a choice, the old man's cattle were indeed good, but expensive.The next cow is cheap, but he is not optimistic.

He looked at the girl who was standing aside and staring at the big bull, and asked, "Sanya, which one do you think we should buy?"

Gun ox is a name for bulls in rural areas.

Melomei withdrew her gaze from the bull and pointed to the old man, "Go ahead and buy his. Although it's a bit more expensive, this cow is strong, and it should be okay for the journey."

She doesn't understand cattle, but seeing her father's tangled expression, she knows that he should be more optimistic about this one.

"Okay, let's buy this one."

Sure enough, as soon as Mei Luomei finished speaking, Mei's second child was very happy, dancing and dancing around the big bull, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, just like the mood of a modern man when he bought a BMW.

Now that it was decided to buy, the old man was also happy, and immediately helped to set up the car, collected the money, and went to the Yamen to go through the transfer procedures, and then looked at his big bull with longing.

"It's very obedient, and I hope you treat it kindly." The old man touched the bull's head reluctantly, and then hugged its neck.

Reluctantly, step back three times.

The cattle seller next to him rolled his eyes when he saw that Melo and Mei didn't buy his cattle: "What a fool, don't want cheap ones."

Melo May: "It's not certain who is a fool."

The cattle seller was choked.

The two climbed into the ox cart, Mei Laoer waved his whip, and drove the ox cart forward.

Finally, I don't have to worry about sticking cow dung on my feet!

But this wheel...

Melo May leaned on the car window and looked down—it's hard to say!

The ox cart drove out of the cattle and horse market. Under Mei Luomei's strong request, Mei's second child had to spend some money, bought some water, and wiped the carriage and wheels carefully before the two continued to go to the street. to buy something.

The county town is not as lively as it used to be, there are only a few people here and there, except for the food store, other shops are not doing well, it is deserted, and no one is seen for a long time.

Up to the shopkeeper, down to the clerk, either dozing off or cleaning up.

Melomei shook her head. She just felt that the ancient times were really difficult to deal with. Natural disasters were not easy to deal with, and no matter how bad they were at war, they often made people frightened.

The two went to several stores before they bought what they wanted to buy and loaded it into the car. Melomei checked again, such as leather bags for water, leather bags for packing things, burlap bags, small jars for seasoning, leather boots , umbrellas, daggers, butcher's knives... I bought a few more large tanks and planned to store water at home.

I wanted to buy a tent, but unfortunately it was not sold in ancient times, so I had to give up!
Mei Laoer came back in an ox cart, and attracted some villagers to watch as soon as he entered the village.

"Second brother Mei, whose ox cart did you borrow? Why haven't I seen it in the village?" A villager saw Mei Laoer driving an ox cart and asked.

Mei Lao Er stopped the ox cart and said with a proud smile: "We bought this by ourselves."

Thinking of the last time my fourth brother had a leg problem and went to borrow an ox cart, he had to borrow several houses before he could get it.Mei Laoer couldn't help but sighed in his heart.

It feels good to have a car at home, otherwise it depends on the relationship to borrow a car everywhere.

One person said in a strange way: "Hey, Second Brother Mei has made a fortune, and now he has bought an ox cart. Tell brother where he can get rich, and brother will do it too."

Second Mei: "..."

Another villager said: "That's right, second child, tell the brothers where you can get rich, let's all go together, and then we will earn money and treat you to dinner."

Another person came forward with a bucket, and patted Mei's second son sitting on the bullock cart: "We are all from the same village, so we should make money together, right?"

Others watched and pointed around the big bull.

Some people said that the ox was big, so it must have cost a lot of money; some people said that Mei's second son might have owed a lot of debts to buy the ox cart.Some people even said that Mei's second son didn't think about the girls in his family. He was so poor that he couldn't afford the dowry and owed a lot of debts. Who would want to marry a girl from his family...

In short, I just can't see you!

Melomei really couldn't listen anymore, she lifted the curtain of the car and walked out, stood on the shaft of the car, and said with a displeased expression: "My family really owes a lot of money to buy a bullock cart, and our family can't afford the dowry, so I beg you Don't look at my girl."

Cut, who wants to marry this kind of person who has pink eyes when he sees that other people's homes are better than his own.

Everyone was stunned.

They didn't expect the third daughter of the Mei family to be in the car!
"Father, go back quickly, there is still a lot of work waiting to be done at home!" Melomei called Mei's second son, turned around and got into the bullock cart, not wanting to talk to everyone.

Mei Er Er heard the words and glanced at the crowd, waved his whip with a complicated expression, and rushed out of the crowd with the bullock cart.

A villager behind him watched the ox cart go away, and said angrily: "Isn't it just an ox cart? What's so great about it, look at how his family is pulling it."

Mei's second child and Melo Mei who walked away: "..."

The two drove the ox cart into the yard and moved the things out.

Mei Lao Er went to build a small house for Niu, but at this time the door was knocked.

"Who?"

"Well, you bastard, you don't even know your mother?" Mrs. Mei's angry voice came from outside the door.

"Oh, so it's my mother!"

Mei Lao Er hurried forward to open the courtyard door, looked at the few people standing outside the door, and said in surprise: "Mother, why are you here?"

No wonder he was surprised, the families had indeed been separated for a few months, and although there was a wall between them, Mrs. Mei and the others had never visited the house.

"Why, my mother can't come to my son's house?" Mrs. Mei pushed Mei's second child away and walked into the yard.

Mei Laosan and Xiao Zhang followed closely behind.

When he saw the cows in the yard, Xiao Zhang said sourly: "Our family is almost out of rice to cook, and the second brother's family still has money to buy cattle. I really don't want to miss my brother!"

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she really didn't believe that Mei's family could afford an ox cart.

She originally planned to go to Liu's house to have fun today, but she heard from passing villagers that the second brother's house bought an ox cart, so she hurried back and called her mother-in-law and the head of the family to see it, but she didn't expect it to be true.

"Second brother, your ox is so strong, why don't you lend it to your brother for a few days?" Mei Laosan walked around the ox cart a few times, his eyes full of calculations.

Mrs. Mei went up to look at the big cow, and said: "Second brother, give your cow to me and your father, and we two elders will not want your second wife's filial money from now on."

Second Mei: "..."

He really didn't know that buying a cow would cause so many troubles.

Pulling the reins, at a loss, not knowing how to answer.

How happy I was to buy cattle at the beginning, but how helpless I am now!
"Mother, this... these are two different things, this cow... this cow..." Mei Lao Er held the rein tightly, unable to say anything if he wanted to refuse.

The old lady Mei said aggressively: "What's wrong with this cow, the old lady of the cow looks just right, your father is old and can't do much heavy work. With this cow, it's just right to take it to the farm."

"That's right, dad is getting old, and now the second brother has a cow, so he can help dad and mother plow the land."

Mei Laosan took up the topic, feeling that what he didn't have, the wimpy second brother didn't deserve it either.

Xiao Zhang: "That's right, the second uncle is so filial, he shouldn't be stingy with such a cow!"

"That's right, father is filial, otherwise our whole family wouldn't live in a thatched cottage, and let grandma live in a big tiled house made of blue bricks."

Melomei put away her things and came out of the house, just in time to hear Xiao Zhang's words, she couldn't help but yelled at her.

"Third uncle and third aunt must be as filial as my father. I heard that your family's ten acres of land sold a lot of money, which is more than enough to buy a cow. Why don't third uncle and third aunt buy a cow for grandma?"

The two couples didn't want to work, so they couldn't wait to sell all the property after they separated, causing Old Man Mei to chase the two of them from the beginning to the end of the village, creating an uproar and the whole village knew about it.

"Who said we have silver, how much is that field worth? It's already been spent."

Mrs. Zhang shrank her neck, not daring to say that most of the money was given to her daughter for business.

The third Mei saw that Mrs. Mei saw that the expressions of the two of them were not right, and hurriedly said: "My mother is right, mother, you don't know how much our field can sell, and besides, your grandson is not young, so you have to hurry up." Doesn’t it look like a family? We are a big family, and we have to eat after we are separated.”

Xiao Zhang hurriedly cried and said: "Mother, we really have no money, and we are almost out of food. Don't listen to Sanya's nonsense, we are not like some white-eyed wolves who don't think about honoring the elderly at all."

Melomei rolled her eyes and said, "Third uncle and three aunts are really filial to the elderly, and even the little land that was allocated will be sold, tsk tsk tsk..."

Turning to look at Mrs. Mei, "Grandma, that's the hard work of your second elder."

Mrs. Mei "..."

This dead girl is sowing discord again.

Xiao Zhang was so angry that she jumped up and shouted: "Mother, don't listen to her nonsense, this damn girl is very treacherous."

"That's right, mother, we're here this time..." Oldest Mei approached Old Madam Mei, whispering to her.

Seeing the two muttering and knowing what they were discussing again, Mei Luomei didn't have so much patience to wait for them to discuss the countermeasures, so she said directly to Mei's second son: "Father, you can take the cow aside, don't let it lie in our yard." Shit."

Mei Lao Er was not sure how to deal with it, and immediately said after hearing the words: "Father, I will hold you now."

Mei Laoer looked at his daughter worriedly, and hurriedly led the cow away.
