Chapter 25 Buying Cows

  After Mai Duoduo came out of school, she went to the cattle and horse market in town. She planned to buy an ox cart to pull sugarcane.

  The cattle market is located in a flat area at the northeast corner of Lingnan Town, surrounded by wooden stakes. The smell of cow dung can be detected from hundreds of meters away.

  Mai Duo covered her mouth with her hand and walked quickly forward. At this time, a girl of about ten years old rushed out from an unknown corner.

  "Sister, do you want to buy a cow?" Ma Duo Duo eyed the little girl in front of him, who was wearing clothes full of patches and had a dark yellow complexion.

  "Think about it." The little girl's eyes sparkled when she heard Ma Duo Duo's words.

  "Sister, our family's cow is really strong now. If it weren't for brother's illness, father wouldn't have been willing to sell it."

  Ma Duo Duo followed the little girl to a corner of Niu Shi, where he saw a man in his thirties.

  The farmer sat with a worried look on his face, smoking a dry pipe.

  "Dad, this sister wants to buy a cow." The old man turned around and looked at Ma Duo Duo.

  "Miss, you really want to buy a cow?"

  "Yes, my dad asked me to buy it. I live in Wangjiacun Village." Ma Duo said with doubt, can buying cattle be fake too?

  "Uncle, how much for this cow?" "Fixed price, twelve taels of silver." Mai Duo Duo wasn't very familiar with the prices at the cattle market, but he saw honesty and kindness in his eyes.

  In this dynasty, ordinary farmers would not easily sell their self-raised draft cattle unless they had no choice.

  Mai Duo Duo decided to act like a rich man for once. "Alright! Twelve taels is twelve taels, Uncle, please teach me how to drive an ox cart."

  "What? Young lady, you don't know how to drive an ox cart?" The old man said loudly, then muttered to himself: "You dare to come buy an ox without knowing how to drive an ox cart?"

  "Uncle, I'm very clever, just teach me for a moment."

  "But this bull of mine is a bit stubborn, can it be done in just one moment?" The old man frowned and said.

  "Uncle, don't worry, it's because it's a public thing that it won't make things difficult for me."

  "This, this, this girl is so shameless." The old man chuckled and said.

  The sun sets in the west, Ma Duo Duo drives a cow cart on a small rural road, and thinks of the song "Walking on a Small Rural Road".

  Unconsciously, I started singing: "Walking on the small road in the countryside, the old cow returning home is my companion. The blue sky and a sunset on my chest, the fluttering clouds are the evening glow's clothes. A smile is written on my face, humming a little song of rural life, letting my thoughts fly high in the late wind. How much desolation and melancholy, all drifting away with the late wind, forgotten on the small road in the countryside..."

  At this time a horse carriage flew past the cow's side, Lin Mingzhu lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that it was Mai Duoduo, so she called the driver to stop the carriage.
