Chapter 144 Buying a Carriage
Chapter 144 Buying a Carriage
Before leaving, Zhao Pannu's father held Chen Chengshan's hand and kept asking him to come often in the future.
"My father hasn't been this happy for a long time. I'm busy and rarely chat with him! Thank you!" Zhao Pannu thanked Chen Chengshan sincerely.
"Hehe, I learned this by always getting into trouble at home and acting like a spoiled child with my dad to get away with it!" Chen Chengshan was also a little embarrassed.
"Hahaha!" Everyone was amused.
"Uncle will come to see you next time!" Chen Chengshan waved goodbye to the little baby in Zhao Pannu's arms.
The little kid couldn't speak clearly yet, but he imitated him and waved his little hand holding the rattle.
After everything was done, Chi Xiaotong took the two of them home early the next morning.
He went straight to Chen's house, and everyone at home heard the sound and ran out to greet him.
Chen Chengyu even pulled Chen Chengshan aside and asked him all sorts of questions.
When Chen Chengshan answered for the second time whether Zhao Pannu's complexion was good or not, he finally couldn't help it and ran to Chen's father. He escaped the disaster by telling him the interesting things that happened along the way.
Chen Chengyu turned around and pulled Chi Xiaotong, who was still flirting with Tian Yu, over and continued asking questions.
"Everything is fine, and I have explained everything clearly! Don't worry! Just focus on your review!" Chi Xiaotong felt helpless.
Chen Chengyu stopped asking questions and chatted with everyone for a while before going back to the house to continue memorizing. She was very enthusiastic about studying now.
It was not until the evening that Chi Xiaotong and Tian Yu took the three children home.
Tuantuan is still too young to sleep by himself, so he is sleeping with Yuanyuan for the time being. Yuanyuan has taken care of Manman and is very experienced in taking care of Tuantuan. Tuantuan also prefers sleeping with his brother.
I usually sleep with Yuanyuan for two days and Manman for two days. Although she is not very big, she is very good at serving water. She can't speak, but she knows where to sleep and who to sleep with.
Chi Xiaotong was also happy to spend her own time with Tian Yu.
……
If we need to supply goods for a long time in the future, we can't always hire horse-drawn carriages. The distance is far and the ox-drawn carriages are too slow.
Chi Xiaotong considered buying a carriage so that it would be convenient for her to travel in the future.
Before, the Chen family had always ridden in an ox cart because they seldom went out. They originally had a horse carriage, but after it was not used often, it was given to Chen Yu's family.
Before, Chi Xiaotong had not thought about buying one. Not only was a horse and a carriage very expensive, but the horse also had to be fed specially.
But it’s different now. If you often travel long distances, it is still convenient to have a horse-drawn carriage.
Chi Xiaotong told Tian Yu about her idea. Although Tian Yu felt sorry for the money, he also supported Chi Xiaotong.
"If my wife thinks it's necessary, just buy it. I can feed the horse!"
"You don't have to feed it. It's so big, I might hurt you again!" Chi Xiaotong smiled and pinched Tian Yu's face.
The face has flesh, it feels so good! Chi Xiaotong pinched it several times. Tian Yu sat obediently and let her pinch it.
It didn't stop him from talking: "No, I'll just pay attention!"
"You are allowed to do everything, what else can I do?"
"My wife is the one who makes money, it's very hard!"
"It's just for a while, you won't be too tired! You never rest at home, so don't be lazy, just relax!"
"I don't feel tired!"
"It's good that you're not tired. If you feel tired, don't force yourself and tell me! Don't be like last time. If I hadn't seen that you looked unhappy, would you have not told me?"
"No, I feel fine. Just drink more hot water!"
"You think drinking hot water can cure a cold? Don't be so sure next time! You know, you'll scare me!"
“I know!” Tian Yu also knew that he had made his wife angry last time, so he answered obediently.
Last time, Tian Yu caught a cold and didn't tell Chi Xiaotong about his discomfort. He still got up early as usual to boil water and cook.
It was only when Chi Xiaotong got up and went to the kitchen to help that she noticed that he looked pale. When she touched his forehead, it was burning hot.
But Chi Xiaotong was scared. You know, with the medical conditions here, a minor cold can be fatal.
At that time, Chi Xiaotong forced Tian Yu to see a doctor, who prescribed some medicine for her. After they came back, Chi Xiaotong stuffed Tian Yu into the quilt and covered him with sweat!
I cooked breakfast, boiled medicine, and cooled him down physically. Although he was no longer hot, Tian Yu was still kept in bed for the rest of the day.
It was not until the next day, when his complexion and spirits had improved, that Chi Xiaotong allowed him to get off the kang and move around moderately.
When they heard that Tian Yu was sick, Yuanyuan and Manman were very worried, but Tian Yu was afraid of infecting them, so he didn't let them in to see him. There was no way he could stop Chi Xiaotong.
Only after Tian Yu was fully recovered did she dare to hug her three children.
During this period, the three children were very well behaved.
"Wife, you said you wanted to buy a carriage. Do you have any favorites?" Tian Yu quickly changed the subject, otherwise his wife would lecture him again!
I don’t know why, but Chi Xiaotong attaches great importance to this issue. Whenever he thinks of it, he will say something to him, for fear that he will forget!
"Not yet. I plan to go to the market to have a look. There's no rush. I'll buy it when I see something I like!"
"Okay, I'll go prepare breakfast!" After saying that, Tian Yu ran away.
Chi Xiaotong also knew that she had been annoying him by saying this frequently since he was sick last time. But she couldn't help it. If she didn't keep talking about it, Tian Yu would forget it in a moment and would just pretend to be uncomfortable next time.
This time he looked unhappy, I noticed it myself, but what if I can't see it next time? If he doesn't tell me, I won't know, what will I do if something really happens!
There is no other way, just control yourself and pay more attention!
Looking at Tian Yu's cheerful back as he ran away, Chi Xiaotong's eyes were filled with smiles.
Chi Xiaotong walked around the market twice but didn't see her. But she ran into Mao Xiaoying.
"Why are you here?" Mao Xiaoying said happily, putting her arm around Chi Xiaotong's shoulders.
"I came to look at the horses and to buy a carriage! What about you?"
"Me? I was just wandering around and walked here! If you want to buy a horse, come to me! I know this area very well! What kind of horse do you want to buy?"
"It's just for daily household use, when going out, transporting things or something like that!"
"Come on, I'll take you there. This episode is on! You can't buy a good horse!" Mao Xiaoying pulled Chi Xiaotong left and right and turned into a small alley.
"This family has good horses, but they are a bit expensive. But she can make her own carriage! She can buy whatever kind you want!" Mao Xiaoying said, pointing to a family.
"Yeah," Chi Xiaotong nodded.
Mao Xiaoying was the first to go forward and knock on the door.
When bargaining, Mao Xiaoying was better than Chi Xiaotong. She managed to get the horse and carriage for only one hundred taels!
A fine horse, plus a carriage custom-made according to Chi Xiaotong's requirements, with such configuration and such a price, Chi Xiaotong really admires it!
Because it is a custom-made carriage, it will take half a month to get it.
After agreeing on a time to pick up the goods, Chi Xiaotong paid eighty-five taels of silver and took the horse back home.
Several children including Chen Chengshan were surrounding the horse, looking at it curiously.
"Be careful and stay away from the horses, or you'll get kicked!" Chi Xiaotong warned.
Just watch from the side, and even let them touch it while ensuring safety.
Chi Xiaotong learned to drive. When he drove the horse-drawn carriage to deliver goods to Zhao Pannu for the first time, he looked at her in amazement for a long time.
