Chapter 108 Calling Ancestors
Ye Xinran hurried home and told Xiao Huaian about this as soon as she entered the house.
"I think that Zhang Dashan definitely didn't just pass by by chance. He must have wanted to go up the mountain to see something, or he must have followed me all the way there."
"Zhang Dashan, he really has never changed his bad habits!"
Xiao Huaian thought again of the mother and son bullying the three children.
I let them go in the first place, but he actually dared to come forward.
Xiao Huaian already had an idea in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face.
He comforted Ye Xinran, "Don't be afraid, I will keep an eye on Zhang Dashan."
"it is good!"
Ye Xinran felt relieved
"I'm not afraid of anything else now, I'm just afraid that he will affect our business. But when I think about it carefully, he doesn't have that ability."
"He really doesn't have that ability." Xiao Huaian said.
It would be best if you don’t even have that thought.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even know how he died.
In the next few days, Ye Xinran paid attention to Zhang Dashan's movements.
Zhang Dashan stayed at home obediently, did not go anywhere, and did not follow Ye Xinran again.
"Maybe I'm worrying too much."
Ye Xinran said.
A few days later, Xiao Huaian's legs had completely recovered.
The two decided to go to the county town to buy the carriage first.
When Xiao Huaian appeared in the village, everyone was surprised.
At first everyone just felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't tell why.
It wasn't until someone pointed at Xiao Huaian's legs that everyone realized what was wrong.
Xiao Huaian's lame leg was actually healed.
After his leg healed, Xiao Huaian became even more handsome and dignified.
The woman who had secretly felt sorry for Ye Xinran before immediately changed her attitude and began to envy her.
"I said at the beginning that Xiao Huaian's only shortcoming was his lame leg. Now his leg is healed. In our village, he is truly one of the best boys."
"Didn't you want to marry your daughter to him in the beginning? Are you regretting it now?"
“What’s the use of regretting? Our girl doesn’t have the ability of Madam Ye.
Look at the two of them now, they are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman. "
"That's right, look at this couple, they look so good together, the man is handsome and the woman is pretty, very eye-catching.
We still have money! We are building a new house!"
Amid the envious admiration of the villagers, the two of them got on the ox cart and headed for the county town together.
When they arrived at the place, the two first went to the horse shop to choose horses.
The shopkeeper pointed to a chestnut horse and said, "If you two want to buy horses, buy this chestnut horse. It is tall, strong, and very powerful."
Ye Xinran took a look and thought it was pretty good.
Xiao Huaian shook his head. "Although this horse looks tall, it is old and has injuries on its legs. It can't run fast."
Finally, Xiao Huaian went to the stable himself and picked a very energetic horse.
The horse is black all over, except for a wisp of white mane on its forehead. Its eyes are round and bright, making it look very handsome.
As soon as Ye Xinran saw it, she fell in love with it.
"Sir, you have a good eye. This is the best horse we have here."
The shopkeeper flattered, "His previous owner said that this horse had been to the battlefield! Horses like this are very enduring and recognize their owners. As long as he recognizes you as his owner, no matter where you put him, he will be able to find his home by himself."
"Then why didn't it go back to its previous owner?"
Ye Xinran asked casually.
"This... We have it strictly guarded here, of course it can't escape."
"If we buy it back, won't it run away? Our money will be wasted."
Ye Xinran was a little worried.
"That's not the case. It's been so long since it left its last owner, it must not remember anything. Horses don't have good memories. It's probably only been a month. Yes, a month is enough time for it to forget its previous owner."
Seeing that Ye Xinran asked seriously, Xiao Huaian also found it very interesting.
He looked at the horse's walking posture and then said, "This horse has never been shod. Boss, you tell me, has this horse been on the battlefield?"
The shopkeeper didn't expect to meet someone knowledgeable today.
He didn't sell a single horse, but was speechless because of the couple's rhetoric. He had no choice but to give up and said, "Okay, okay, you said so much just to get a discount, right? Fifty taels, no bargaining, if you want it, just take it away."
"Fifty taels? Is that expensive?"
Ye Xinran asked Xiao Huaian.
Xiao Huaian looked at the horse and said, "It's not expensive."
"That's OK!"
Ye Xinran squeezed her purse, took out a silver note, and said to the shopkeeper, "Do you have a suitable carriage? I want to buy another one."
"Sure, eight taels of silver for the carriage."
The shopkeeper replied lazily.
Seeing Xiao Huaian nod again, Ye Xinran handed over the banknote in his hand.
"Then we'll have a horse and a carriage, and, boss, give us some cushions for the carriage."
Although I didn't make much money from this order, every little bit counts.
The shopkeeper called the waiter and took the two of them to choose a suitable carriage, and then took them to have the horses shod.
Ye Xinran picked out the largest cushion and put it in the carriage, and then the two of them drove the carriage away from the stable.
Ye Xinran originally wanted Xiao Huaian and Xiao Er to learn how to drive, but she didn't know that Xiao Huaian didn't need to learn at all.
He tightened the reins, picked up the whip, and drove the carriage directly into the street as if he was very skilled.
Ye Xinran looked at the hurriedly passing street scene and asked casually:
"So you can drive a carriage!"
"Ok!"
Xiao Huaian just nodded.
Then he raised the whip, increased the speed, and drove the carriage to Yongle Hall.
When Manager Li saw a carriage coming, he thought it was another guest.
It was not until the two jumped off the carriage that he was surprised:
"Why are you two here together today?"
"Hey, that's not right, how come Mr. Xiao has time to come today?
Mr. Xiao, how did your leg heal? "
“Are you asking too many questions?”
Xiao Huaian had a blank expression on his face. Instead of answering, he asked, "Where's Li Mo?"
"The boss is in the backyard, I'll go and invite him right away!"
Li Qiao said this and was about to go to the backyard.
Xiao Huaian waved his hand.
"I go by my own."
As he said that, he took Ye Xinran to the backyard.
Li Mo had been counting the bills for the whole morning. When the two came in, he just walked to the lake to feed the fish and wake up his mind.
Seeing Xiao Huaian walk in, Li Mo rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"Huaian, is your leg really healed? Can you walk normally?"
He took a few quick steps forward and held Xiao Huaian's arm from top to bottom.
"Great, great!"
"I told you that sister-in-law is a miracle doctor. Brother Xiao's leg was healed thanks to you!"
Ye Xinran smiled and shook her head, indicating that he was too polite.
Xiao Huaian curled his lips and showed a meaningful smile: "Why call me sister-in-law? Call me ancestor."
