Transmigrating into a Man's Wife: I Share the Pain with the Male Protagonist

"Mo Yi brought the donkey back? Let's go! We're bored anyway, let's go and take a look!" Li Mofu said on a whim.

Xiao Qi was still skinny, but after changing into new clothes, he looked very energetic. He strode forward to lead the way, muttering, "There are several horses over there! They are so beautiful! I fed them several vegetables, but the donkey looked the ugliest after eating them."

Li Mofu said dissatisfiedly, "After all, he is a great hero who has suffered with us all the way. What's wrong with being ugly? You are judging a donkey by its appearance!"

"Tsk! I was the first one to feed it!" Xiao Qi said, patting his chest.

Li Mofu looked at him and found his expression amusing. "Why are you thinking of feeding the donkey?"

"Hmm...uh..." Xiao Qi scratched his head and hesitated for a while.

"Because the woman wanted him to learn to read and write." Guozi said with a smirk.

Li Mofu immediately smiled slyly, with an expression that said, "I understand, I understand everything." "So that's how it is. Why don't you study calligraphy with Wang Ruiyan instead of running out here and being bored enough to feed the donkeys?"

Xiao Qi was annoyed and retorted, "No! It was Madam who said I could come out and rest!"

Guozi laughed twice and exposed him, "And then you don't want to go back, right?"

"..." Xiao Qi immediately became depressed. "But learning characters is so tiring. Writing characters is also so tiring. I can't remember them at all."

Li Mofu patted his shoulder and said in agreement, "I understand, I understand everything. I went through the same thing back then. But the literacy campaign is unstoppable. You have to keep going. Just hold on and grit your teeth, and you'll get through it."

"Yes, it's a rare opportunity to learn characters." Guozi also said.

“…” Xiao Qi said he was not comforted.

The three of them didn't talk for long before they arrived at the shed where the horses were kept. Just as Xiaoqi said, the horses were handsome and energetic. When they saw them coming, they just looked at them and closed their eyes to rest.

"Wow!" Li Mofu exclaimed as he approached a black horse, his eyes sparkling with envy, "This horse is so handsome!"

The black horse has a relatively long mane, and someone has braided it into a pigtail. Its hair is shiny and sturdy, and it looks very valuable!

"I've already told you, Marco here is so handsome!" Xiao Qi said proudly, hands on his hips.

Li Mofu has a special liking for this kind of black horse because he has only seen it on TV.

"Sir, our donkey is over here." Guozi called out.

Li Mofu's gaze on the black horse was very intense. He pulled it hard several times before looking at his own donkey.

The donkey was pouting and chewing on some leaves, staring at them with its dead eyes. Li Mofu felt a sudden sense of disappointment, "...Why does it feel like its face has changed?"

"..." Guozi was silent and silently added a piece of vegetable leaf to his donkey.

"How dare you say that to me just now! You hypocritical adult!" Xiao Qi yelled angrily.

Li Mofu shrugged and said shamelessly, "There's nothing I can do. Adults are hypocritical. You'll be like me when you grow up!"

"Bullshit! I don't want to be like you!" Xiao Qi said with disgust.

Li Mofu snarled, "You've already set the flag. You're done!"

“…” Xiao Qi didn’t understand but was speechless.

Guozi looked at them with amusement and said, "It's almost time to go back. Xiaoqi, you should go back and learn calligraphy too."

"Ah..." Xiao Qi was a little reluctant. He felt a headache when he saw those big, winding characters.

Li Mofu suddenly thought of something, "I've decided! I want to learn how to ride a horse!"

"..." Xiao Qi, who couldn't keep up with his thoughts, looked puzzled.

"Okay, sir, you will definitely be able to learn it." Guozi, who was showing support.

Li Mofu was a man who got impatient whenever he thought of something, so regardless of Xiaoqi's reluctance, he forcefully brought him back to the yard and asked him to learn calligraphy from Wang Ruiyan, while he went to inquire about the whereabouts of Zhao Xu and Zuo Zheng.

"The master and Mr. Zuo have gone to the port to check the goods. They may not be back until evening. If you need anything, please tell me and I will report it to the manager." The little maid who was questioned spoke clearly.

Li Mofu touched his chin and said, "I see... I want to learn horseback riding. Can you tell the steward about this for me?"
