Fu Ciyi said quietly: "No need."
"Why don't you? On weekdays, you can go directly to the school on horseback." She leaned close to him and whispered, "We only spent ten taels of silver to buy a young horse, and we still have a lot of budget."
There was joy in her voice.
"Okay, it's up to you."
There was a smile on the man's lips.
The couple entered the store.
There were a dazzling array of saddles and stirrups in the shop. Yan Funing didn't know which one was good, so she asked Fu Ciyi to choose one.
He fell in love with the black saddle at a glance, and asked Yan Funing, "How does this saddle look like?"
"Okay, it goes well with a dark horse."
The girl's eyes were full of water, shining with a tiny light, as if she was very satisfied with the saddle he chose.
The shop owner enthusiastically introduced: "You two have chosen the saddle, let's take a look at the stirrups. The stirrups in my shop are made of different materials, gold-plated and silver. I wonder what kind you want?"
Fu Ciyi and Yan Funing looked at each other. It was gold-covered and silver-covered, and the price sounded pretty high.
After the couple made eye contact, Yan Funing said, "Let's buy something more affordable."
There is no need to pretend to be fat.
Depending on the family conditions, the price will be the same.
The shop owner looked at the carriage outside the shop, especially the black horse, and smiled: "This black horse was finally sold."
Yan Funing couldn't help but ask: "Is it so famous in the horse market?"
"It has always been famous." The shop owner started chatting, "More than a month ago, when it first arrived at the horse market, it had more meat on its body and was quite strong. Customers took notice of it that day. Unexpectedly, the customer paid all the money. As soon as he sat on the horse, the black horse threw him to the ground, knocking out half of his front teeth."
Li Xinheng was surprised: "What happened next?"
The shop owner shook his head: "Later, the horse dealer returned the money and gave the customer two taels of silver, which was regarded as compensation for losing half a tooth."
Yan Funing was also surprised: "There is such a thing."
No wonder the horse dealer said he was not allowed to go back on his word.
The shop owner nodded: "This black horse has a very bad temper and goes crazy when someone approaches. Maybe he doesn't like being sold. It is said that he doesn't eat grass and is very stubborn. Now he looks thinner. In order to sell it, the horse dealer I beat it frequently just to subdue it. In the entire horse market, the whips on black horses make the loudest noise."
As he spoke, he reminded in a low voice: "Now that you have bought it, you must pay attention to safety when driving! You haven't ridden it just now, have you?"
The black horse was displeased. It scraped the ground with its hooves, shook its head, and breathed out a heavy breath from its nose.
Yan Funing smiled: "Thank you boss for your kindness. My husband just tamed it."
The shop owner couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "The more affordable stirrups are copper or gilded iron. The prices are three taels of silver and twenty taels of silver respectively."
Yan Funing smiled and asked, "Is there anything more affordable?"
"Yes!" The shop owner was still quite enthusiastic, "Then the ones made of iron are the ones with the lowest price. The ones made of wood are easy to crack."
This is true.
The couple looked at each other and decided to buy iron.
The black saddle and iron stirrups cost a total of one tael of silver.
At this time, many people came to the store to buy. When they saw Fu Ciyi, they all greeted him.
The shop owner asked casually: "Why do you all know each other?"
The visitor said: "This young man just trained a black horse at the racecourse. It was wonderful."
Someone echoed: "It's eye-opening!"
When the shop owner heard this, he enthusiastically gave Fu Ciyi an exquisite riding whip: "Young master, come here often!"
Over here, the couple was chatting happily with people in the store.
Over there, Lu Wenfeng got off the Fu family's carriage, and the first thing he did when he returned home was to send someone to look for the two killers.
After sending Lu Wenfeng back, Fu Minghe also returned to Fu Mansion.
When the concierge and servants saw him, they were all shocked. No one dared to say anything or ask.
Fu Minghe only knew that the servants in the mansion were staring at him one by one. He returned to the courtyard with doubts and was greeted by Yan Haitang, who immediately screamed.
"Why does your husband look like this?"
Fu Minghe hurriedly entered the room and looked in the self in the mirror had two huge black eye circles, looking funny and embarrassed.
Recalling the origin of these two eye circles, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Damn it, Fu Beimo is good at kung fu.
And that Caiyu, he has learned the Funing is domineering, and her maid is even more powerful.
This was good, but it made his face, which was not as handsome as Fu Ciyi's, even worse.
With circles under his eyes, he stopped thinking about telling his father who was still in the county government office that Fu Ciyi was unharmed.
Even during lunch, he hid in his room.
A restaurant outside the horse market.
Fu Ciyi, Yan Funing and Li Xinheng ordered a few dishes and had a simple meal.
After dinner, Yan Funing went to a shop to buy cotton.
"Boss, how do you sell cotton?"
The shopkeeper is a plump woman. She points to the cotton in different bags and introduces: "The ones with seeds removed are fifty cents per catty; the ones without seeds are thirty cents per catty. Which one does the girl want?"
Yan Funing thought for a while and realized that there was no shortage of manpower at home, so she pointed to the unseeded ones: "That's it, ten pounds."
Ten pounds of unseeded cotton is a big bag.
As soon as Yan Funing paid, Fu Ciyi took the bag away.
"Why buy so much cotton?"
Yan Funing followed his footsteps: "I want to put a soft cushion on the car, so that it will feel softer when sitting like this."
Comparing the weight he was carrying with the quilt at home, Fu Ciyi concluded: "The double spring and autumn quilt can be used as two beds."
Yan Funing said: "I made cushions and pillows. Whatever is extra, I can use it."
During these few menstrual periods, she used the menstrual bags made by Fu Nanyao.
Now she is buying more cotton, and she plans to make it herself in the future.
It was inconvenient to explain this to a man like him.
Fu Ciyi didn't ask any more questions: "It's up to you."
When I just bought the carriages, some of them already had ready-made cushions, so the price went up.
She bought cotton and planned to make it herself, which shows that she is virtuous enough.
So virtuous, what else could he say? Just follow it.
After putting the bag into the carriage, he turned around and saw that a certain little woman was nowhere to be seen.
"What about people?"
Just a moment, where did she go?
Li Xinheng raised his chin: "The girl is in the jewelry store."
Fu Ciyi stepped forward.
Women have always loved jewelry. At this time, she only has the hairpin he bought on her head, so she should buy more.
Before reaching the door of the store, Yan Funing came out, holding a sapphire blue tassel in her fair hand.
"Does it look good?" She waved the tassel to show him.
Fu Ciyi's usually cold eyes were filled with warmth, and his voice was low: "It looks good."
Li Xinheng didn't understand: "If a girl doesn't buy jewelry, why buy a tassel?"
Yan Funing put away the tassels and smiled playfully: "I have a use."
Used to coax a certain young man who knows how to play tricks.
On a rare trip to the county town, Yan Funing bought two large boxes of sesame peanut candies and weighed two kilograms of cloud cake before returning home.
On the way back, Li Xinheng drove the cattle cart as usual.
In order to temper the dark horse, Fu Ciyi drove the car himself and followed slowly behind the bullock cart.
The dark horse tried to speed up several times, but Fu Ciyi tightened the reins in advance to stop him.
