I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman
Chapter 75 There's a Horse
When Zhao Qiqi woke up in the morning, he saw a large group of people gathered around the horse and caressing it, with envy in their eyes overflowing.
"Oh my, Dashuan's wife can actually afford to buy a horse."
"Who says she isn't? Dashuan's wife is too powerful. We can't catch up with her even if we try our best."
Originally, Zhao Qiqi's family was the poorest family in Gujia Village. Now, they have built a new house, bought a horse, and their daughter-in-law is pregnant. Their life is simply perfect.
Look at them. They are in dire straits.
Zhao Qiqi waved his hand: "I didn't buy this. Someone put it here. Maybe I'll take it back when they come back."
"The Qin family has lost their ox cart, but Dashuan's wife happens to have a horse carriage. When the time comes, can we villagers take it and help out?"
Xiang laughed. Her voice was loud and the sudden laugh seemed particularly abrupt. Everyone looked at her.
"This is something someone gave to my sister-in-law that day to use for business. How can it be used to carry passengers? Besides, my sister-in-law doesn't need this little money."
Xiang's words had two meanings. One was that the carriage was indeed Zhao Qiqi's, and the other was that he would not use it to solicit passengers.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never thought of paying to ride in a carriage, but now that Xiang had said that, not only could they not ride for free, they couldn't even pay to ride.
"Oh, yes, yes, Dashuan's wife is capable and doesn't care about this little money."
These words made Qin Gao's wife, who was watching in the crowd, a little unhappy. This was the business they were in. Although they had lost their cows now, she was quite dissatisfied with the way these people looked down on this business.
Xiang's face turned fierce: "Go back to your own homes quickly, what are you doing here?"
Everyone was angry but dared not speak out, and secretly lowered their voices and said, "This Dashuan lady has become better, but this Dazhu lady is getting more and more vicious."
Xiang's ears were sharp, his chest heaving with anger, and he almost rushed out to confront and curse at them.
Zhao Qiqi returned to her room and took out those exquisite pastries. She recognized some of them, such as cloud cakes, osmanthus cakes, walnut cakes, and mung bean cakes, but she did not recognize the other more exquisite pastries.
"Okay, I got up a little late today, so I won't make breakfast. You can just eat these snacks."
When Xiang heard this, the displeasure on his face immediately disappeared without a trace, and he put on a smile instead: "Then, give me a piece first."
When she put the clothes back yesterday, she secretly took a snack in a wooden box while no one was paying attention. The pastry seemed to be made of water and melted immediately in her mouth. It was soft, sweet and delicious. She had never eaten anything so delicious in her life.
Zhao Qiqi took out the box that Xiang had eaten, which was walnut cakes, and then took out a bag of unknown pastries wrapped in oil paper. Everyone got almost two pieces.
It was too sweet. When Zhao Qiqi put it in her mouth, she felt a little uncomfortable because she hadn't eaten such sweet food for a long time.
She took out a pot of tea and asked Gu Yantang to boil the water so that everyone could make a cup.
"It smells so good. It smells so good." Grandpa Gu's eyes, which had originally been indifferent, immediately burst into amazing light. This tea was so fragrant and mellow. He had never tasted such good tea.
Of course, Mr. Gu had basically never drunk any tea. He only drank it a few times when he was young and worked for the master in the town. But this was better than what he drank in the master's house. Good tea can be tasted by drinking.
He was very curious about where his eldest daughter-in-law got this tea from. Although he could see that her family was living better and better, tea was only drunk by high-ranking officials and wealthy merchants.
"This is from the carriage yesterday. Maybe I didn't see it yesterday, but I found it today when I was cleaning up. If Dad likes to drink it, this can is for him."
Old Master Gu wanted it a little, but since it belonged to his daughter-in-law, how could he take it? Since it was given by such a noble person, it must be a better thing than he imagined.
Old Master Gu waved his hand reluctantly, saying, "Just keep it for yourself. I don't like to drink it."
He could see the ambition of his eldest daughter-in-law. She would have to deal with rich and powerful people in the future. It would be most appropriate to use such good tea to entertain others.
Gu Yantang watched his grandfather drinking it in small sips, thinking that he really must not like it, but his mother insisted that he give it to him.
"Grandpa, my mother asked me to put it in the house for you."
He hurriedly put the food into his mouth, then wiped his hands and put the tea leaves in grandpa and grandma's room. He would eat the things he liked quickly, so naturally he couldn't tell that Grandpa Gu was reluctant to finish the tea.
After breakfast, everyone went about their own business. The people from the first and second rooms not only had to work on a few acres of pepper fields, but also had to rebuild their houses. They couldn't always be crowded together.
Dashuan continued to make the table, while Gu Yantang went to chop firewood. Firewood was used up quickly recently, and it would be needed more when the weather got colder, so it would be better to chop more now to be prepared.
Zhao Qiqi, Gu Yanyan, Gu Yanyi and Gu Zhaoyun took turns to husk the rice.
Zhao Qiqi suddenly remembered something and asked a few people to husk the rice first, while she went back to the room to buy some carrots.
When she walked to the horse, everyone was busy with their own things and didn't look at her, so she quickly fed the carrots into the horse's mouth.
Zhao Qiqi was speechless. This horse could even smack its lips. Fortunately, everyone was busy with their own things and had no time to care about her.
She thought about it and realized that horses eat grass. Now there is no other grass left, so the most abundant thing is rice straw, and rice straw... should be edible.
Zhao Qiqi walked to the chicken coop. After threshing the rice that day, he placed all the rice straw here, intending to dry it so that he could keep it for later use. Now the straw on top was basically inedible, as it was all dry and yellow. Zhao Qiqi pulled it towards the bottom. The straw further down was fresher and more juicy.
After picking out all the edible things, Zhao Qiqi tentatively put the grass to the horse's mouth and pulled the carrot out of its mouth.
The horse hesitated for a moment, but finally ate the food. Although it was at the bottom, it had been left there in the sun for several days, so it was normal that it was not as delicious as carrots.
"Yan Sui, can you build a horse stable on the land next to the chicken coop? Just a shed and a place to leash would be fine."
She was afraid that the horse would run away at any time.
Gu Yansui nodded: "Mom, this is not difficult. After I finish making this table, I will make a stable and then a trough."
It was almost noon when Zhao Qiqi saw Master Qu coming and felt a little curious. Logically speaking, this Master Qu was the teacher hired by the Su family for Su Zijin. Even if he left now, Master Qu should have followed him. Could it be that he came to say goodbye to Yan Yan?
