Chapter 58: Tamar’s marriage to a dog is a great joyous occasion!
Soon, it got dark and the villagers gradually dispersed.
Mr. Tai San asked privately and heard that the black horse cost ten taels of silver. He was so distressed that he gasped.
But since he had already bought it, he couldn't return it. He was worried about his old brother but there was nothing he could do, so he could only stay with him for a while longer.
It was not until three o'clock in the morning that Tai Jicai, worried about his father, came out to look for him, and then the father and son went back together.
Tai Jizu also persuaded his father and brothers to go to bed, then he lit a bonfire and spent the night in the stable wearing a tattered fur coat.
Yang Lihua was worried, so she lay on the kang, holding her daughter in her arms and patting her gently, listening carefully to the noises outside from time to time. Unknowingly, she fell asleep...
In a daze, she seemed to hear her daughter laughing, and she quickly sat up.
Sure enough, there was no one around him, and there was no sign of his daughter.
She got up quickly and pushed the door open to go out.
In the stable, Tai Jizu wrapped his daughter in a fur coat and they laughed happily together.
Opposite them, the big dark horse who was still sick yesterday has stood up.
Although the big black horse's four legs were still a little weak and it was a little difficult to support its body, it was much better than before.
"Oh, he was really saved?!" Yang Lihua was also very happy.
At this time, the other people in the house heard the noise and hurriedly put on their coats and pants and ran out.
"Oh, it's alive, it's alive!"
"Grandpa is so awesome, he saved Dahei!"
"We have a horse at home. Haha, this horse is so tall!"
The boys were extremely happy, especially Tai Yongan, who dreamed of owning a good horse and traveling around the world with a sword.
In a fit of impulsiveness, he was about to climb onto the horse's back, but the old man quickly pulled him down.
"You little bastard! Dahei is just getting better and is still staggering, and you actually want to ride him!" The old man was furious and glared at his grandson, scolding, "Dahei is an animal, but he's also a life! Don't mistreat him!"
Tai Yongan shrank his neck in fear and quickly admitted his mistake, "Grandpa, I was wrong. I just didn't think about it for a moment. I won't dare to do it again."
Yang Lihua quickly set up a ladder for her son and said, "We don't have much fodder at home. I'll punish you by having you go to the village and cut some more grass for Dahei!"
Tai Yongan immediately agreed, and Tai Yongyue and Tai Yonglu also made arrangements to go along.
Dahei felt the old man's protection and true love, and walked forward with trembling legs, lowered his head to carefully sniff the old man's scent, and rubbed the old man's arm, very intimately.
The little black dog came out from nowhere and joined in the fun, entwining itself around the old man's legs and whimpering.
The old man picked up his granddaughter, rubbed the little black dog's head, and let it go to play with his granddaughter.
Tai Yonglu stepped forward to stop him, "Grandpa, the little black dog bit someone. Last night, it almost…"
But he stopped talking halfway because the "ferocious" little black dog had already followed my sister's foot and ran into the house...
The old man laughed heartily and said happily, "The big black horse and the little black dog are destined to be with our family!"
Tai Jizu and others nodded and laughed.
Adding a horse or a dog to the family is also a happy event.
At this moment, the villagers also came over to see the results, and listened to the laughter and joyful chatter in the yard. They felt very complicated in their hearts.
They all thought last night that Big Black Horse would not survive and that Uncle Six's family would suffer a loss of money.
I never thought that I would be slapped in the face as soon as I woke up.
This big black horse is so majestic, it can be sold for at least one or two hundred taels.
This is simply making a fortune!
Master Tai San doesn't care about others, he is genuinely happy for his old brother.
He was half asleep last night, and was so worried that there were dark circles under his eyes.
He waved his pipe and said repeatedly, "Sixth Brother, such a happy event deserves a drink at noon!"
"Haha, Third Brother is right. We must celebrate." The old man agreed immediately. "I just bought a jar of wine yesterday. Let's not go home until we're drunk."
Liu Dongniang was a quiet person, but she was very diligent and immediately went to the kitchen to prepare.
Yang Lihua asked her second son to take care of her daughter and went to help.
This morning, there was a constant stream of people from the village and outside rushing to see Tai's dark horse.
The black horse ate grass and drank water, and although he was still a little weak, he was getting better and better.
A wine table was set up in the main room. The rabbit that had previously run to the back door to die was eaten by the young and old in the family. The remaining one became the main dish today.
The strong liquor I bought in the city was also welcomed by everyone and was immediately sold out...
Not to mention how lively Tai's family was, just say that among those who came to see the big dark horse were villagers from Zhangjia Village.
After I get back, I will naturally tell my relatives and friends about it.
"You don't know, that big black horse is more than a man tall and looks very old and majestic. It's no exaggeration to say it's a general's mount! I don't know where Master Tai Liu bought it from. Such a good horse is not easy to come by!"
Men like horses, it seems to be in their nature.
The man from Zhangjiacun was talking with saliva flying and his face full of envy.
Others were curious and said they would go and see it if they had the chance.
Outside the crowd, Tai Jicang was carrying a pickaxe, his face full of resentment and gloomy appearance making it difficult for people to approach him.
The villagers standing near him couldn't help but move away a distance.
Tai Jicang felt uneasy and started to say, "The Tai family said they were taking everyone to the city to work and earn money, but in reality, everyone worked themselves to death and only brought back a few pounds of grain. Tai Jiye kept all the money secret. Otherwise, how could they have bought good horses?"
When the others heard this, they all turned to look at him.
