After a tragic death, the vicious sister returns to the farmyard

After Qin Maixin came out from Shopkeeper Fang with the banknotes, she wanted to buy cattle and cars, but she was afraid that the livestock market would be mixed with fish and horses. Furthermore, she didn't know much about cattle and didn't know which one was better. , which end was not good, she simply went back home first, hid the 700 taels under the bed, buried it with soil in the hole she dug, and then climbed out.

She planned to use the remaining 20 taels to buy cattle. She knew very well that in this era, buying cattle was a major family event, just like giving birth to a child or holding a wedding.

She didn't buy it before because she was afraid of being too ostentatious and causing Mrs. Qin to come over and make a scene.

Buying now, firstly, she knows that she will go to the town more and more times in the future; secondly, she plans to build a house on the mountainside of the mountain she bought before winter comes, and then move her home Move there.

This home is really too small and dilapidated. Recently, there have been frequent drafts. Living here will definitely be difficult in the winter, especially since her mother is still pregnant.

Also, if she remembered correctly, her master would appear in a few months. The master liked to live in the mountains, so she had to prepare in advance.

She definitely couldn't talk to Qin Yuanfeng and Yun Xiu'e about buying cattle. After thinking about it, she said hello to a few people at home and said that she was going to the town to find her adoptive father, so she went there with the 20 taels of silver she had. Aunt Wang's house.

Recently, every household has harvested the rice, dried it, stored it in the warehouse or sold it. The weather has slowly turned cooler and it has entered late autumn. Except for some families who have fruit trees that need to be picked, most families They all took a break.

Uncle Wang was also at home at this time and was very happy to see Qin Maixin coming.

.

"Second girl, you're here, come in and sit down. Brother Wang is back today. Auntie has made steamed buns stuffed with pork and cabbage. We were thinking of getting some for you to try later. Here you are. "As he said that, Uncle Wang shouted in the direction of the kitchen, "Mother, the second girl is here, have the buns been steamed?"

"Hey, the second girl is here." Aunt Wang smiled and had already brought out a large bowl of steamed buns.

Qin Maixin felt embarrassed now. She had come to Aunt Wang for help, and now they had to give her steamed buns to eat. In this country, it was not easy to make steamed buns. They were usually only made during holidays.

Uncle Wang's eldest son must be coming back today, so that's why he did it.

At this moment, just as he was talking, there was the sound of a cow braying outside the door. Qin Maixin turned around and saw Wang Qing, the eldest son of Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang, returning.

Also sitting on the oxcart was Wang Yun, the 12-year-old youngest son of Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang.

"Hello brother Wang, hello brother Wang." Qin Maixin greeted the two of them with a smile. Both of them had a very good impression of Qin Maixin, especially Wang Yun. His favorite thing was to eat Qin Maixin. s things.

After eating something at Aunt Wang's house, Qin Maixin explained the purpose of his visit, "Uncle Wang, my adoptive father's rice was sold and he made a lot of money. He said that my parents didn't want his money, so he wanted to give it to us. We have a cow. But I’m afraid that my parents won’t want it, so I want to ask you to help me choose a cow. When the cow is bought, my parents will definitely not be able to send it back.”

During this time, many people knew that Qin Mai had a foster father in his heart. After all, Di Xiong often came to their home, and each time he rode in a gorgeous carriage.

In this countryside, not to mention horse-drawn carriages, even ox-carts are rare. They don’t know what Qin Maixin’s adoptive father does, but in the past few months, Qin Maixin has been buying land in the name of Di Xiong. , everyone who knows that Qin Maixin has an adopted father knows that Qin Maixin’s adopted father is very rich.

When Uncle Wang heard Qin Maixin say that her adoptive father was going to give them a cow, he was also happy for Qin Yuanfeng. With the cow, it would be much more convenient to farm or go to town in the coming year.

Their eldest son bought their cow after saving more than a year's monthly money plus the money they usually saved.

"Okay, Uncle Wang will go with you right now and accompany you to choose a cow with good teeth."

Uncle Wang is a man of action. He took Qin Maixin to his family's oxcart and went to the town. He found the market where livestock was sold. It was quite lively with people coming and going. There were shouts and shouts, which was the smell. Not very pleasant.

Uncle Wang took Qin Maixin to look around at the places where he bought cattle. When he saw a good one, he went forward and opened the teeth of the cow to take a look. In the end, he picked a small one of medium height. The cow looks good and looks quite strong.

After bargaining with the cow seller, I finally bought it for ten taels of silver.

Just as the two were about to leave, Qin Maixin's eyes inadvertently glanced at a sick calf that had fallen on the ground, taking in more air than coming out. Its four hooves were tied with strong ropes. It looked like it was He won't live much longer.

Some livestock sellers do not want to lose money, so sometimes they will take such calves and kill them, then mix them with fresh beef and sell them to others.

It was looking at Qin Maixin, and there was a trace of desire for life in its eyes.

.

No one wants to die, not even cows.

It looked at Qin Maixin, and Qin Maixin looked at it.

When Uncle Wang called Qin Maixin, Qin Maixin made a decision and bought it.

A calf that was about to die of illness could not be sold for much money even if it was sold as meat. If someone was willing to take advantage of it, the stall owner was naturally happy and sold it to Qin Maixin for only two taels of silver.

The calf was about the same height as Qin Maixin. Compared with the calf bought for ten taels of silver, it was too thin and could even walk unsteadily because of illness.

But when Qin Maixin held the rope that tied it, and sat on the newly bought ox cart, it still followed Qin Maixin back home step by step with great effort.

After thanking Uncle Wang and taking the six buns given by Aunt Wang, Qin Maixin led the two calves back home.

Qin Yuanfeng and Yun Xiu'e were working in the yard. When they saw Qin Maixin leading a cow back, both of them were stunned for a while and did not react. Qin Maixin had to tell her the story she had made up in advance. Again.

He insisted that it was given by his adoptive father, and he was right.

Qin Yuanfeng still couldn't accept it and insisted on sending the cow back. Qin Mai became anxious and directly said that after Di Xiong gave her the cow, he went somewhere else and didn't know when he would come back.

Seeing that Qin Maixin insisted on keeping the cow, Qin Yuanfeng discussed with Yun Xiu'e and agreed to keep the cow temporarily.

While Qin Maixin was taking a nap, Qin Yuanfeng took two cows to the town, intending to find Di Xiong and return the cows to Di Xiong. Fortunately, Di Xiong was really not here, but he didn't leave today. .

Qin Yuanfeng had no choice but to bring back two more cows, but the thin calf was about to die of illness.

, after being tossed back and forth like this, there was only one breath left.
