After Becoming a Widow, I Became the Foolish Mother of Two Children

One day, Su Luo transmigrated and became the mother of two children. Not only was she mentally deficient, but she was also a widow. The family was destitute, living in an abandoned tile kiln by the...

Chapter 110 Buying a Horse

"Does the old lady still have a headache?"

"Um!"

The old lady looked up at Su Luo and said, "Miss Su, I'm sorry to have made you laugh these past few days."

"I'll just treat your illness. By the way, madam, this is a herbal oil that I made. If you have a headache again, just put two drops on it and rub it on your temples. It will have a miraculous effect."

Su Luo gave a small porcelain bottle to Madam Xu. This herbal oil has a refreshing scent, and applying a little bit will make one feel much better.

After hearing what Su Luo said, the old lady immediately poured a little on her fingertip and then rubbed it on both sides of her forehead.

"Hmm, this smells refreshing, and it makes me feel less irritable."

Look at this bottle in my hand, it's only about the size of a finger. If I use it up, I'll never have another one.

"Madam Su, I've never seen this herbal oil before. Are you still selling it?"

I'll buy two more bottles for you. I have many old friends who don't like taking medicine at all, and this is perfect for them.

Su Luo hadn't considered that the herbs she brewed this time were only enough for five bottles, and she had to pay for the herbs and bottles herself.

I originally intended to give one bottle to the old lady, one bottle to Xu Hongkuo, and the rest to Zhao Ruyun. I never thought of using it for business.

However, the effects of herbal oil are not limited to refreshing the mind and relieving headaches. In the summer, it can also repel mosquitoes. So far, Su Luo has not heard of any mosquito repellent products in Nanning.

"I only have a few bottles right now, but I can send you a couple more, madam. I'll have someone bring you some more when you run out."

"Then I thank you so much, Madam Su. Please stay a few more days this time. This old woman truly likes you."

Madam Xu thought Su Luo was very clever; not only did she save her life, but she was also unlike other women who were talkative and gossipy.

"No, the rice at home is ripe, and my mother-in-law and children are waiting for me to come back."

Su Luo declined, but after returning home, she discussed with Du Xiuyuan the idea of ​​working together to make this herbal oil and sell it at Ji'an Hall.

"Then we'll have to wait until next time. I heard from Kuo'er that you've grown a second crop of rice. That's an extraordinary achievement. You've brought great benefits to the people."

"Madam, you flatter me. I'm just a farmer."

Su Luo spoke with the old lady for a while before coming out. During lunch, she told Xu Hongkuo that they would return to Changping Village the next day.

Xu Hongkuo said he would find someone to take Su Luo and Du Xiuyuan away, but Su Luo refused.

She heard that the horse and bridge dealerships in Anchangzhou were better than those in Yongle County, so she wanted to buy a horse and a carriage.

Then you can drive your own carriage back, otherwise it's inconvenient to use Du Xiuyuan's carriage every time you go out.

"Dr. Du, I don't know how to judge horses. Why don't you come with me to choose one in a bit?"

Su Luo said to Du Xiuyuan, who had just finished lunch.

"Alright, as long as it's within my power, just call me, Madam Su."

Du Xiuyuan had never met a master like Su Luo. No matter what big or small matter it was, she would consult with him and never force him to do anything.

Although she is a woman, she is far better than those who claim to be from noble families. Becoming Su Luo's disciple was the best thing he ever did in his life, and he will never regret it.

Su Luo and Du Xiuyuan had already explored the streets of Anchangzhou once. After asking around, they quickly found the horse shop.

The horse trading company owner was tall and burly, with a scar on his face and dark skin; he looked like a skilled horse trainer.

"Gentlemen, all the horses here are fine horses. Whether you want to buy them to ride or to harness to a carriage, we have the right ones for you."

The horses at the horse stables are all in the stables, and the price is written on a wooden post in front of each horse.

The price varies depending on the horse's size and shape.

The horse trading owner noticed that Su Luo was staring intently at the price of the horses and said...

"You two don't look like you're from Anchangzhou, do you? Don't worry, even though I don't look like a good person, I would never cheat you."

Su Luo and Du Xiuyuan were amused by their boss's words. Neither of them expected their boss to say that, and they wondered if his appearance had ever scared away customers in the past.

"We need to find a horse that can pull a carriage; it needs to be fast and good."

"It's just a horse-drawn carriage; look at these, they're around sixty taels each."

The boss took Du Xiuyuan and Su Luo to see another stable, which only had three horses, unlike the other stable which had six.

"These three are all good. You can choose whichever one you like."

This boss doesn't flatter or fawn over others in business, and Su Luo likes his personality.

“Madam Su, these three horses are enough, but if you want horses with good stamina and speed, this might not be enough.”

Du Xiuyuan looked at the first horse; it was small in size, with uneven muscle structure, and looked malnourished.

The second horse, and the third horse, followed the same pattern.

When they saw another stable, the first thing they noticed was the price: one hundred and twenty taels.

There is only one brown-coated horse here.

After observing for a while, Du Xiuyuan was very satisfied with both the skin and the condition of the tendons in the limbs.

He has a strong waistline, a full chest, and a large, fleshy buttocks and hips.

I waved my hand in front of the horse's eyes a few times; its vision was normal.

"Madam Su, this horse is quite nice, it perfectly matches your requirements, it's just the price..."

This is the most expensive horse priced at the horse dealership. Even Du Xiuyuan said it was good, so this horse must have something special about it.

"The price is negotiable, but I don't know what kind of temperament this horse has. Can we take it out for a walk?"

The boss glanced at Su Luo and Du Xiuyuan before speaking first.

“You have a good eye. This horse was brought from overseas. It’s rare to find such a fine horse here.”

Given its rarity and difficulty in acquiring it, the price is higher than our local horses. That's the price; I won't lower it. If you're hoping to haggle, that's not possible.

After saying that, the boss handed the horse reins to Su Luo.

"Give it to me, I'll take it to see it."

Su Luo truly doesn't know as much about horses as Du Xiuyuan does.

After driving around for a while, the two were very satisfied, paid the money, and led the BMW out.

They went to buy another sedan chair, not too luxurious, and the shop owner even helped them put the carriage on the harness.

"Dr. Du, I'd like to bring some gifts back for Yanchuan and Yihuan, and then go take a look at the streets ahead."

With the carriage, Du Xiuyuan became the one who led it.

"Madam Su, I'll buy the gifts for Yanchuan and Yihuan. I haven't bought anything for them yet."

Du Xiuyuan practiced his medical skills every day and neglected his two children. Apart from buying them some food, he really never bought them anything they liked.

"Anything is fine, just buy some cheap little things, don't buy anything expensive, they won't appreciate it."

"good!"

After searching several stores, the two finally found some small toys that the child would like, and bought Yi Huan a plush toy and a small ball.

Buy Yanchuan new practice paper and a new inkstone.
