Chapter 476 Ruozhu and Mom have a dispute

The driver looked at Bai Ruozhu as if he was stupid, as if he didn't believe his ears, and asked, "You really don't need to sign a deed of betrayal?"

Bai Ruozhu smiled and nodded.

"Then, why me?" the coachman asked cautiously.

Bai Ruozhu's smile became even bigger. Although this man was honest, he was not blind and knew how to ask things clearly.

"First of all, you have a horse and a car, which saves me having to buy a horse and a car myself. Secondly, you are honest and a trustworthy person. Finally, you seem to be good at raising horses. On the way to Beiyu City, I I have observed that your horse is well-raised and running the same distance, your horse is obviously not as strenuous as other horses." Bai Ruozhu said.

Wei San looked surprised, "Madam, you have such good eyesight that you can actually see this. To be honest, my family used to raise horses. Later, when our family fell into decline, I became a coachman and pulled a cart."

"How much money did you make driving a cart in the past month?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

Wei San thought for a moment and said: "Excluding taxes, raising horses, and repairing cars, the cost is about three taels of silver a month, and sometimes it's not even that much."

Bai Ruozhu made a rough calculation and found that the driver was honest and did not overpay.

"Then as we said, I'll hire you to provide our family with a car, and I'll pay for the horses and car repairs. From now on, I'll give you six taels of silver every month, and I'll add more when you're done. How about that?" Bai Ruozhu asked. .

The coachman couldn't help but look surprised. He spent a lot of money feeding horses, repairing cars, and paying taxes every month. Bai Ruozhu gave him six taels of silver, which was definitely an excellent price. He heard that it was from a wealthy family. Waiting for a maid or a young boy, only two or two months of silver is enough.

"Of course I'm willing, but it would be a big loss for Madam. It doesn't seem good." Wei San rubbed his hands and said uncomfortably.

Bai Ruozhu laughed, "So you still have a job, which is to help me raise horses, is that okay?"

"No problem, no problem, I'm the best at raising horses." Wei San laughed innocently, luckily it was something he was familiar with.

"Do you know where I can buy a horse that's not expensive and rides well?" Bai Ruozhu asked again.

"I know, madam, you want to buy a horse now?" Wei San's eyes lit up, and it seemed that whenever he mentioned horses, his eyes would become more confident.

"Well, I want to buy a horse first and teach my two brothers how to ride." Bai Ruozhu said.

"Okay, madam, get in the car, and I will take you there now."

Then Wei San took Bai Ruozhu to the horse market. As expected, there were many horses for sale. As soon as he walked in, he could smell the smell of animal feces and urine, but Wei San's face showed excitement.

Fortunately, Bai Ruozhu found an expert. If she did it by herself, she would really have to be very picky. Wei San quickly helped her choose a horse with a suitable and docile personality, saying it was most suitable for beginners.

Bai Ruozhu nodded, she understood that it couldn't be achieved overnight. Even if there was a good horse, she couldn't afford it, and if she could afford it, she might not be able to raise it, and it might not be suitable for beginners like her eldest brother and second brother.

After agreeing on the price and paying the money, the store sent someone to follow him to deliver the horse, and Bai Ruozhu returned to Wei San's carriage.

In fact, she wanted to ride on a horse on a whim, but in the end she decided not to do it. She didn't know how to ride and might make a fool of herself on the street.

On the way, Bai Ruozhu asked Wei San some information. When he learned that he lived not far from Bai's house, Bai Ruozhu let him continue to live there, but just come here earlier every day.

When the Bai family saw Bai Ruozhu bringing a coachman back, and the coachman also brought a horse, they were very surprised, and they all came to ask Bai Ruozhu what happened to the horse.

"I just bought the horse. In addition, I hired Wei San to pull the cart and raise the horses for our family. From now on, he will take care of the horses." Bai Ruozhu said.

Lin Ping'er was a little anxious when she heard that, she frowned and said, "We don't have much income yet, why are you hiring a car and buying a horse? Why are you so lavish now?"

Bai Ruozhu sighed helplessly and said: "Mom, the dividends from my toothpaste are not input now? The money for fresh soup powder I just received is not input? You have to spend it where it should be spent. Beiyu City is much bigger than Anyuan Town. , how much time would it take to go out to do errands if you don’t have a car and have to walk? The time lost can earn more money for the car.”

Everyone was silent, thinking about what Bai Ruozhu said in their minds. They were either farmers or had been doing small business in the past, and were used to saving. This was the first time they thought about what Bai Ruozhu said.

"Buying a horse is a must. The eldest brother and the second brother live in Beiyu City. Whether they go out to discuss business or study, they will make some friends. If a friend makes an appointment to go out, everyone will ride a horse, but the eldest brother and the second brother will take a carriage. Wouldn't it make people laugh?" Bai Ruozhu continued.

Lin Ping'er said angrily: "It's just a joke. We can't be so vain and compare ourselves to others."

"Mom, this is not comparison, this is integration. This is Beiyu City. We have changed our living environment and must learn to integrate into this new environment." Bai Ruozhu said again.

Lin Ping'er said angrily: "Anyway, whatever you say makes sense, I can't convince you!" After saying that, she turned around angrily and went back to the house.

Bai Yihong winked at his daughter hurriedly and whispered: "It's okay. Your mother just can't turn around. Just go and persuade her."

Everyone in the yard was a little embarrassed, saying that they were going to work, but in fact they regretted why they came over just now. They shouldn't have been there when the mother and daughter were having a conflict.

Wei San had already pulled his horse to the stable in the backyard, and he didn't know if he heard Lin Ping'er's words.

The Meng Mansion was originally prepared for the eldest young master Meng Hanhong. Naturally, the stables and other things had been built, which really left a lot of things for Bai Ruozhu.

Bai Ruozhu took the pedal from her sister-in-law and said to Wang Caiyue and Fang Guizhi, "Let's go see the horses."

In fact, Wang Caiyue and Fang Guizhi are also very curious about horses. It is rare for daughters of villagers to see horses. If a carriage comes to the village, people will watch it for a long time.

"Okay, let's go quickly." Fang Guizhi said cheerfully. After saying that, she remembered that Lin Ping'er had been angry about this matter just now, so she restrained herself embarrassedly and stuck out her tongue at the two of them.

Wang Caiyue actually agreed with Bai Ruozhu's approach. The most important thing was that Bai Ruozhu mentioned that her eldest brother should learn to ride a horse. She also felt that her husband often went out to run business, so it was necessary to learn to ride a horse.

She heard that horse riding was an activity among the nobility, and people would laugh at her if she didn't know how to ride a horse.

"It's okay. My mother will be able to turn around in a while, and maybe she will come over to watch the horses." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

Little Dengdeng was very curious about the tall horse. He stretched out his hands and screamed, meaning stop talking nonsense and hurry up.

The three of them laughed and walked towards the stables in the backyard.
