Yan Funing nodded obediently: "If it's too expensive, we won't buy it."
Fu Ciyi responded softly.
At this time, someone pointed out: "Our county is not a frontier fortress, nor is it a battleground for military strategists. No one can buy this kind of thousand-mile horse."
Someone immediately echoed: "That's right. , Ordinary people can use ordinary carriages and horses to travel, and a thousand-mile horse is overkill for pulling a cart."
The horse seller said: "For example, if I want to go to the capital to do something urgent, wouldn't a thousand-mile horse come in handy? ”
But everyone shook their heads: "Let's just take a look and watch the excitement."
Everyone present was ordinary people. How could there be any need to go to the capital for urgent matters?
Even if the royal family now begins to draft women, this matter is only related to those who are officials.
If you choose a palace maid, people like them who can come to the horse market to buy horses have acceptable family conditions, and there is no need to send their daughters to serve others.
As a result, there is almost no chance of going to the capital.
After a while, people gradually dispersed.
No matter how much the horse seller shouted, he had no intention of continuing to surround him.
Yan Funing followed Fu Ciyi to see the horses nearby.
As for the quality of horses, she is a layman. She can only look at how the horse looks, its shape, and its age.
Nothing can be seen from the side.
The three of them walked through most of the horse market, and finally stopped in front of a gray-furred horse.
Li Xinheng knew a lot about livestock. He stroked the horse's back and nodded to Fu Ciyi.
Fu Ciyi asked: "What's the price of this horse?"
The horse seller was a man with high cheekbones. He smiled: "Thirty-five taels."
Hearing this, Yan Funing quietly touched her money bag. Today she came to buy a horse, but she only brought thirty taels of silver.
Thirty taels is already a lot of money for their family.
Although she brought thirty taels of silver, she did not intend to use all thirty taels of silver to buy horses.
Then he smiled with crooked eyebrows and negotiated the price: "Can it be cheaper?"
The horse seller smiled: "You little girl, it is cheaper. How much cheaper do you want it to be?"< br>
He smiled and shook his head, looking at the three people opposite him from head to toe.
The young man and the little girl in front of them are good-looking, but they are not worth eating. They are wearing fine cotton clothes, which shows that they are not wealthy people.
Looking at the big guy, he is wearing short brown clothes.
After looking at it like this, you can tell that they have little money.
Then he pointed to the corner of the horse market: "You have no money and want to buy a horse. I suggest you pick an old horse. You can buy an old horse for ten taels of silver."
She really knows the value of the horse. I don’t know, but the feeling of being looked down upon by others is actually quite unpleasant.
Yan Funing pursed her lips and remained silent.
People were coming and going in the horse market, and many people brought horses in.
To prevent others from touching Yan Funing, Fu Ciyi clasped her wrist and pulled her towards him.
"Leave it to me to buy the horse."
The voice is gentle.
Yan Funing nodded and followed him calmly.
Li Xinheng raised his finger to the horse seller with high cheekbones: "How can you talk like this in business?"
"What did I say? It's the truth that you don't have money, and you won't let it go." Did someone say that?" The horse seller smiled and shook his head, then went to greet the customers next to him.
Fu Ciyi, who was already walking in front, turned his head slightly: "Xinheng."
Li Xinheng responded and quickly followed.
The three of them walked for a while.
Yan Funing wanted to move her wrist slightly, but she couldn't, so she used her other hand to pull Fu Ciyi's sleeve.
"You squeeze me so hard."
The tone is delicate and weak.
Fu Ciyi let go.
The white and slender wrist in front of him was covered with his pinched fingerprints, and his handsome eyes suddenly darkened.
To be honest, every time he pulled her, whether it was holding hands or clasping her wrists, his movements were really stiff.
Since childhood, he has never had such contact with any other woman except her. He actually didn't know how much force to use.
Although he knew that she was delicate, and he wanted to slow down his strength, there was always an inexplicable voice clamoring in his heart.
He didn't know why this voice existed.
Even if he deliberately avoided the sound, his movements could not help but show stiffness.
"There are many people here. I was afraid that you would lose it, so I held tight."
He gave a reason that even he believed.
Suddenly, many horses rushed beside them. Fu Ciyi quickly put his arms around her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.
Yan Fu thought for a moment, then raised her soft little hand: "Can you hold my hand?"
Let's hold my hand.
My wrist has been pulled so hard by him that it hurts.
If your hand hurts from being pinched by him, you can only ask him to change your hand.
It is indeed inconvenient to walk here, and you will often be touched. It is safer to go with him.
The corners of Fu Ciyi's lips raised unconsciously, and he restrained himself from holding her little hand. He didn't dare to use too much force to say anything at this moment.
Li Xinheng couldn't help but laugh again.
The good-looking couple's intimacy is as sweet as eating honey.
What would happen if I pulled Caiyu’s hand?
He suddenly stopped thinking. Caiyu was so strong that she might not be willing to hold his hand.
Even if you hold it in your hand, it will still be sweet, but there will be residue, just like chewing sugar cane.
The three of them watched a lot of horses again.
After some selection, Fu Ciyi fell in love with a dark horse.
Unexpectedly, when the three of them stood still in front of the horse, the horse became frantic.
The horse dealer was so angry that he whipped the horse on its back.
The black horse made a long neighing sound and raised its front hooves high, as if to kick its master.
The horse dealer whipped him again.
Seeing that the whip was about to fall on the horse's back again, Fu Ciyi grabbed the whip.
His actions attracted many people.
“Young Master has two tricks.”
"This horse is beaten every day. If it blocks a whip, it will be beaten again."
The horse dealer said to Fu Ciyi: "This is a fierce horse, and it will be useless if it is not beaten. If the young master likes it, he will be beaten again." Take away thirty taels of silver."
Fu Ciyi looked calm.
After this round, Yan Funing realized clearly that in the horse market, the price of ordinary horses is thirty taels and upwards.
Having to spend thirty taels of silver to buy a horse is not something their family can afford.
It seems that I can't buy a horse today.
A middle-aged man said: "This horse is very manic. If it is used to pull a cart, it will easily cause harm to its owner."
An old man nodded: "It will cost thirty taels of silver to buy one. A manic horse is not worth it. "
A young man also said: "Thirty taels is too high. A thousand-mile horse costs one hundred taels, but your manic horse is not worth thirty taels."
The horse dealer was anxious: "I am a fierce horse, not a manic horse!"
"Isn't that the same meaning?"
"It's different!" the horse dealer raised his voice.
The old man shook his head: "You have a bad temper and are stubborn. Your horse has been in the horse market for a month and you haven't sold it yet."
The middle-aged man pointed at the horse: " Not only does he have a bad temper, he is also thin.”
The horse dealer argued: “It doesn’t eat, so it looks a little thinner, but its muscles and bones are good.”
"You must say that your horse is good."
"Thirty taels of silver is a steal. It is better to buy an old horse, which is docile."
The horse dealer sighed and stretched out his hand. He held out two fingers: "Twenty taels, whoever wants it will take it away."
The horse seller with high cheekbones just now came over: "You can't sell it for another two months."< br>
