There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 230 Lying (Part [-])
The one on this side is obviously thinner, and the one in the middle is much stronger.

Chunya couldn't figure out why Chen Laiqing wouldn't let her buy the middle end.

After more than a month, Chen Laiqing's leg injury has healed.

Apart from being unable to run, jump, and carry heavy loads to climb mountains, general walking is not affected at all.

This morning, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng hadn't come to the market yet, the tavern was closed in the morning, Chen Laiqing had nothing to do, and wandered around the market.

Although it is not the day for going to the market, the doors of the shops in the market are still open as usual.

When he was strolling around, he met Chunya.

This girl actually dares to buy a donkey by herself! ?

Look, have you been tricked?
"The donkey in the middle is an old donkey! The donkey on the side is just thinner and eats better forage, and it is a good donkey. Moreover, the one on the side is thinner and younger, and the one in the middle is at least 15 years old. age."

"Ah, 15 years old? As old as me?" Chun Ya was surprised.

She asked Li Jiaoniang, the donkey's lifespan is only a little over 20 years old.

This donkey is 15 years old, how many years can he still work?
"That's right, what do you buy for such an old donkey? Don't want it. I want the thinner one, which is only three or four years old." Chen Laiqing said.

The shopkeeper was upset, ran over and glared at Chen Laiqing, pointed at him and shouted, "Who are you? My family is in business, what are you doing?"

Chen Laiqing said loudly, "I am... I am a relative of her family, why can't I help her? He is her uncle!"

Chen Laiqing was a few years older than Luo Fucai, so he called himself Uncle Chunya.

As soon as he heard about his relatives, the shopkeeper didn't dare to chase Chen Laiqing away.

He snorted coldly and said, "What do you know? This skinny donkey is a sick donkey! What about relatives, are there relatives who cheated on nieces?" He patted the back of the donkey in the middle, and said to Chun Ya, "Little girl , buy this one, this one is healthy, and the sick donkey, in case the disease becomes severe and cannot be cured, will you suffer a loss if you buy it? We have been doing business for many years, and we dare not cheat you. But your relative, Not like a nice guy."

He whispered the last sentence to Chun Ya.

Chunya glanced at Chen Laiqing, and asked the shopkeeper, "Then how much does your sick donkey cost? Just the skinny one?"

"This one, this one... ten pennies." The shopkeeper shook his head, "Don't buy it, it's not worth buying, it's a loss." The shopkeeper shook his head straight.

Chun Ya tilted her head, "Let me just ask, how much is the minimum you want? If you are so sick and still sell ten guan, the shopkeeper, you are dishonest in your business."

Chen Laiqing also said, "Shopkeeper, you said just now that this donkey may not be cured, and you sold it for ten guan, deliberately cheating the little girl? I see, it is worth eight guan at most."

The shopkeeper found that he fell into the pit he dug.

"Okay, okay, take the nine pennies away." The shopkeeper became impatient, "I kindly recommended a good donkey to you, but you want this sick donkey."

"Baguan is three hundred coins, I won't buy any more." Chunya patted the cloth backpack on her body, "I will pay if you agree."

It doesn't matter if she is a little thinner or a little sicker, she will be a better donkey if she is cured. The key is that she doesn't have enough money now.

I can only make do with it and buy it.

The shopkeeper’s eyeballs rolled, and he pretended to sigh, “All right, it’s only three hundred cash, but I can tell you in advance, after the money and goods are settled, what’s wrong with the donkey? Don't look for me."

"How can you sell donkeys like this? According to the rules, if you have a problem after seven days, you won't come to you. If you have a problem within seven days, who will you go to if you don't?" Chen Laiqing said coldly. But it’s not just your family, there’s another family on the street.”

After finishing speaking, he waved and called Chunya, "The shopkeeper is not sincere in doing business, forget it, let's go, go to another store and ask, if it doesn't work, let's go to the county town to buy it, it's cheaper there."

Chun Ya smiled and nodded, "Okay."

The two of them really walked out.

The shopkeeper was in a hurry, so he had to sigh and said, "OK, OK, I've sold it to you. Although this donkey is sick, it's not a sudden illness, and it won't die within half a year. Buy it back and treat it well. Another good donkey."

Chun Ya turned around and said, "That's it."

She starts taking money.

Chen Laiqing said, "Donkeys are valuable items, and the shopkeeper has to write a receipt."

The shopkeeper's expression was ugly, "Sell a donkey and you have to write a receipt?"

"Otherwise, if we come back and ask the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper will say that he has never sold donkeys." Chen Laiqing shook his head, "In order to avoid disputes in the future, it is better to write a letter."

"Yes, write a receipt. Shopkeeper, please be quick, I can count the money." Chunya urged.

The shopkeeper wanted to sell the sick donkey early, but he had no choice but to agree to Chun Ya's request and write a written receipt.

The money and the goods have ended.

Chunya took the paper and led the donkey out of the shop.

After walking a little far, Chen Laiqing said, "Chun Ya, this donkey just has a stomach problem. I'll find you some herbs. When you go home, grind them up and mix them with sorghum wheat for the donkey to eat. In two or three days, the donkey's illness will disappear." Well, once you have a good appetite, you will gain weight soon. This donkey is only three or four years old, and it will be a good helper with great strength after raising it."

Chunya asked in surprise, "Chen Erbo, do you know medical skills?"

When Chen Laiqing was at home for the second time, Chunya called Chen Erbo.

Luo Cheng's father is older than Chen Laiqing, and Luo Cheng only calls him Uncle Chen.

Chen Laiqing smiled, shook his head and said, "I don't understand, I only know a little about animal medicine."

"Ah, that's amazing." Chunya smiled and said, "In our Yushan Village, no one knows about animals. I was wondering where to ask a veterinarian to look after donkeys. Uncle Chen can look after animals. That would be great. .”

Being praised by Chunya, looking at her smiling face, Chen Laiqing felt sad.

His daughter, Chen Yinhua, never praised him like that.

Following her mother's temperament, she always looked down on him and scolded him all the time.

He is just a slave of his daughter and Luo Axiang, alas...

Thinking of the past, Chen Laiqing sighed again.

"What's the matter? Uncle Chen?" Chun Ya asked in doubt.

"It's okay." Chen Laiqing forced a smile, "I feel guilty in front of Chunya, Chunya, you little girl bought a donkey, but I can't afford a donkey."

Chunya smiled and said, "Uncle Chen knows a lot, and he will definitely be able to afford a donkey in the future. By the way, Uncle Chen, if you want to use a donkey, you can borrow my donkey."

"Okay, okay." Chen Laiqing said with a gratified smile.

How could he borrow the little girl's donkey?

He's still trying to earn money to buy it.

While talking, I arrived in front of a pharmacy.

Chen Laiqing went into the shop, bought six sticks of herbs and handed them to Chun Ya, "These have been mashed up, and when feeding grass in the morning and evening, take a pack and mix it in, twice a day, it's three days."

Chunya took it in her hand, "I'll give you the money."

"No need, no need, just ten yuan, what do you give? No, no." Chen Laiqing waved his hands again and again, "I'm going to the tavern, Chunya, you should go home earlier, your mother will be worried."

"Hey..." Chunya grabbed the money, and when she looked up, Chen Laiqing had already walked away.

The little guy standing at the door of the pharmacy smiled and asked, "Your father buys you medicine, what do you pay for it, just take it, what are you doing so clearly for eighteen cents?"

Chun Ya wanted to say, that was not her father, her father would only ask her for money, how could he give her money?
But what was she explaining to a stranger?

Hey, really.

Chunya had no choice but to put the money back in her pocket, and give him something next time, to repay the kindness of helping him buy the donkey today.

The donkey was so thin that Chunya couldn't bear to sit on it.

She led the donkey home.

Although the August sun was shining hotly, making her sweat, but Chunya didn't feel tired at all, instead she was in a happy mood.

She finally has a donkey, so she doesn't have to squeeze into Jiaojiao's family's carriage and donkey cart when she goes out.

When she walked to a large pond at the entrance of the village, Chunya picked a small lotus leaf and washed it in the water, scooped up some water and drank it.

The water is very clear, reflecting the blue sky above, and you can see the green aquatic plants at the bottom of the water, and the gray-white creek fish swimming happily in the water.

A figure appeared in the water at this moment.

Chunya was startled and turned around to look.

"Father?" Chun Ya was surprised, why did his father suddenly appear?
"Where did this donkey come from?" Luo Fucai asked as usual, wearing a light blue gown and a Dongpo hat, holding a white paper folding fan in his hand, pointing at the donkey.

Chunya thought of his father's virtues and didn't want to tell the truth.

Besides, only she and Chen Laiqing knew about her buying a donkey. At this moment, Chen Laiqing was still at the village market.

"It belongs to Sister Jiao Niang." Chunya said coldly.

"I remember, isn't her donkey so skinny?" Luo Fucai shook his head in disbelief, "Chun Ya, you actually lied to Dad?"
