I just want to die of old age

Chapter 443: The Cannon Fodder Cousin of the Group’s Favored Girl 16

Su Yuzhu chose light lotus root color and crescent white for herself.

Then they each picked out two pairs of cotton shoes. Su Yuzhu had sharp eyes and could roughly guess their sizes with just a quick glance.

Su Yuzhu looked at the ready-made clothes and picked out two sets each.

A set of ready-made clothes costs 500 wen, which is affordable.

Su's mother can make new clothes, which can take up a lot of time. She can't keep wearing these tattered clothes.

Su Yuzhu thought of their thin quilt again, frowned, and quickly said, "Boss, I need another 60 kilograms of cotton."

If she could hold it all, she would have bought more.

I spent more than twenty taels in one go.

When the proprietress saw that Su Yuzhu was a big customer, she immediately smiled and packed up her things quickly and gave her two silk scarves.

Su Yuzhu was shopping in the cloth shop, and soon she had bought a lot of things.

Su Yuzhu frowned as she watched. She went next door to buy a cart, put all the fabrics on it, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She also put a bag of seeds in the car, which was indispensable to her next plan.

Su Yuzhu came to the butcher shop again.

The butcher cut the meat with his knife deftly.

Su Yuzhu directly asked to buy 10 kilograms of lean meat, 30 kilograms of fat meat, and three kilograms of spare ribs.

Then she looked at the pig offal thrown aside, her eyes lit up and she asked, "Boss, are you selling pig offal?"

"Girl, this pig's offal smells really bad, it's inedible."

"It's okay, I want it."

The butcher packed 10 pounds of pig offal together, handed it to Su Yuzhu, and charged her 10 cents.

When Su Yuzhu saw some delicious meat buns on the road, she bought 10 of them.

The meat buns in ancient times were made with real ingredients, and they were big and fragrant.

When Su Yuzhu returned to the pharmacy, her two brothers were already waiting there anxiously. When they saw Su Yuzhu, their eyes lit up.

Looking at the cart full of things, Su Yuzhu felt satisfied.

The two brothers Su Xi and Su Bei took over the cart and pushed it, leaving Su Yuzhu to carry the meat buns.

Passing by the restaurant, she was greeted by the fragrant aroma. If there weren't so much food, she would have wanted to go to the restaurant for a meal.

Su Yuzhu looked at the cart full of things, frowning. It was really tiring to carry so many things back.

She then suggested, "Brother, let's go buy an ox cart. It's hard to push all the stuff on it back to the village."

The eldest brother Susie agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Susi was waiting by the cart, but his second brother Subei went with him to buy the calf.

If the purpose is too clear, the vendor will definitely lower the price.

Not long after Su Yuzhu and her second brother left, they happened to see a strong man selling cattle.

This cow has shiny fur, looks strong and powerful, and looks very smart.

Su Yuzhu asked, "Old man, how much do you want to sell this cow for?"

The man who was squatting stood up immediately. He had been in the market all day and no one came to visit him.

"70 taels."

The man looked at Su Yuzhu's hesitant expression and praised her immediately, "Girl, you really have a good eye. If my old man hadn't been seriously ill, I wouldn't have been willing to sell this cow. I've raised this cow well at home. It has strong legs and feet and shiny fur. You won't lose out if you buy it back."

"This price is still too expensive. Another one is cheaper than this."

Su Yuzhu frowned and prepared to turn around and leave.

The man finally waited for someone to buy the ox, so how could he let it slip away like that? He hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, girl, I can give you a discount of 2 taels at most, and also give you a set of ox cart frames."

"make a deal."

Su Yuzhu was used to bargaining when buying things, let alone buying a cow. She spent dozens of taels of money directly. It turned out that money was not easy to spend. She still had to earn more money.

After turning the corner, Su Yuzhu and his second brother came back with the cows.

The three of them assembled the ox cart frame with swift hands and feet. The eldest brother Susie sat on the ox cart frame eagerly, and signaled to the two siblings to get on the cart with his eyes.

Su Yuzhu and Su Bei looked at each other, feeling inexplicably worried. After all, the eldest brother had never driven an ox cart before.

The eldest brother, Susi, was bold and without hesitation, patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, I often ride the ox cart in the village. I have learned a few tricks before. I will be fine."

Su Yuzhu sighed and climbed onto the cart. Thinking that it would be better not to dampen his brother's enthusiasm, he said, "Brother, please drive the cart slowly. Let's take our time. There's no rush."

The second brother hesitated for a second but still sat on it. He carefully protected Su Yuzhu and let her lean on the cotton ball to avoid injury.

It turns out that some things still depend on talent. Even though it was my eldest brother's first time driving a ox cart, he drove it quite steadily.

Gradually, the two siblings relaxed.

Moreover, compared to the constant noises from the county town, there is also the stench of sweat from the villagers.

Now, it seems more comfortable.

Su Yuzhu looked at the scenery along the way leisurely, and looked forward to the future life in her heart.

Su Yuzhu understood that if she bought so many things at once, it would definitely cause gossip among the villagers, but she could not avoid others and affect her own life.

They returned to the village very quickly, and caused heated discussions among the villagers along the way. After all, not everyone can buy so many things at once, and the most important thing is that they came back in a ox cart?

Many children followed behind them, looking at the cow with burning eyes.

In ancient times, an ox cart was equivalent to a luxury car.

An extra cow can help with farming and also help pull goods.

"The Erzhu family just split up, how can they afford to buy a cow?"

"It seems that their family has become rich. They bought a lot of cloth, meat, rice and flour. I am really envious."

At the same time, many villagers looked at each other with envy and said in a sour tone: "We are all from the same village, and you have a way to get rich, but you didn't even tell us."

A villager's eyes rolled quickly, and he said greedily, "They must have a lot of money. Money is tight lately. I think they won't refuse if I go to borrow some money."

"The Su family still picked up sesame seeds and lost watermelons. The Erzhu family is indeed lucky in wealth."

……

The eldest brother Susi drove the ox cart without looking around and returned home slowly and calmly.

Su's mother, Tian, looked at the cart full of things and her face darkened: "You kids are so extravagant when it comes to spending money. How could you buy so many things at once? And why did you buy a cow?"

Su's mother, Tian, gasped in pain and regretted not going to stop them.

Su Erzhu's eyes lit up, and he came forward to look at the cow carefully, reaching out his hand and stroking the cow continuously. His burning eyes were as if he had seen his lover.

He said happily, "This cow is a good buy. It is in good spirits."

Su Erzhu was ecstatic and kept repeating in his heart, "We have a cow! Our Su family finally has a cow."

Su's mother, Tian, became even angrier upon seeing this. Her original anger instantly found a way to vent, and she pushed him away without mercy.
