Chapter 135
"I understand, you can make a price." Miao Xiaoyan said.

 "60 taels!" The boss lion said loudly.

Lao Hu raised his head sharply to look at the boss, hesitant to speak.

"Okay! Bring the deed of sale!" For some reason, seeing Lao Hu's appearance, Miao Xiaoyan couldn't bear to bargain with the boss.

"Okay, I'll get it now!" The boss smiled, and the small mung bean eyes narrowed into a small slit.

Miao Xiaoyan paid the money and took the deed of sale and left the shop with Lao Hu.Lao Hu followed behind Miao Xiaoyan without saying a word, keeping a distance of three steps.

Miao Xiaoyan stopped, looked back at Lao Hu and shouted: "Uncle Hu, hurry up!"

Lao Hu panicked for a while, and said, "Miss, you can just call me Lao Hu!"

"Uncle Hu, I'm not a rich lady, I'm just a countryman, you can call me Swallow." Miao Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"Small ones don't dare!" Lao Hu lowered his head and said.

"Uncle Hu, if you do this again, I will get angry. I don't think you look like a driver at all, do you?" Miao Xiaoyan blinked.

"No, miss, I'm just a driver. It's really not worth the price you pay for me!"

"No, Uncle Hu, I think it's worth it! Because, ah, you are priceless!"

Lao Hu raised his eyes to meet Miao Xiaoyan's innocent smile, and his eyes suddenly became sore.

"Miss."

"Old Uncle Hu, I told you not to call me Miss!" Miao Xiaoyan pouted and pretended to be angry.

"Okay, Swallow!" Old Hu laughed.

"Uncle Hu, let's go." Miao Xiaoyan led Lao Hu to the street as she spoke.

"Swallow, is your home really in the countryside?" Lao Hu asked suspiciously.

"Yes, Uncle Hu, are you wondering why I have so much money to buy you?" Miao Xiaoyan said with a smile.

"Yeah." Old Hu nodded.

"Uncle Hu, I have made some money doing business in the town during this period of time. My younger brother and sister come to the town to attend private schools every day. I bought a carriage a few days ago, but we don't know how to drive a carriage, so In the future, I will trouble you, Old Hu, to send my younger brothers and sisters away."

"Swallow, don't say that, I'm already a servant of your family, you can do whatever you want in the future!"

"Uncle Hu, don't treat yourself like someone else in my house, and we won't treat you like an outsider either." Miao Xiaoyan said.

"Swallow. Actually, you really should have lowered the price with that boss just now. When my master sold me to him, it was only 20 taels of silver!"

"20 taels of silver?" Miao Xiaoyan looked at Lao Hu in surprise. Such a strong man, who can drive horses, is only worth 20 taels?

Lao Hu nodded sadly, the original master sold him out of sight.

"It's okay, old uncle Hu, you are worthless in the eyes of others, but you are valuable in my eyes!" Miao Xiaoyan didn't know who this old uncle Hu was, and why his master sold him again. But Miao Xiaoyan just felt that he was not a simple person.

Miao Xiaoyan could see that this old uncle Hu had something to hide. Since old uncle Hu didn't say anything, there was no need for her to pry into his privacy.

Miao Xiaoyan and Lao Hu returned to the village in an ox cart, and Miao Dafu and Shanfeng came out to welcome them.

"Brother, sister-in-law, this is Old Uncle Hu. He will help us drive the carriage and send Xiaoque and Xiaobao to private school."

"Uncle Hu, this is my brother and my sister-in-law."
