When Su Cheng performed normally, it was quite unpalatable, but today he performed exceptionally.

It was as if Qin Canglan had been struck by lightning. The lightning rolled across his body, and even every strand of white hair was burned.

The last time I ate such unpalatable food was when Fa's wife was alive.

The big man can eat it just by looking at it...Su Cheng put all the roasted sweet potatoes in a dustpan on his lap calmly.

Qin Canglan choked on the hard-to-swallow roasted sweet potatoes.

Not long after, Su Ergou came back carrying the burden.

He went to the market to buy a basket of dry goods, including peanuts, sesame seeds, dried mushrooms and day lilies. He wanted to buy dried plums, but he went late and they were all sold out.

In the countryside, there are not so many people who like dried plum vegetables, except for Su Ji’s dried plum vegetable pancakes.

The other basket contained fodder for the foal, including corn cobs, barley, young grass and beans.

"Father, I'm back!"

Su Ergou put the burden on the ground, and he saw an extra man in the yard. The man had gray hair and beard, and looked about the same age as Mr. Su in the country, but he was much stronger and burlier than Mr. Su.

"Father, is there a guest at our house?"

Su Ergou asked.

"Oh, Dumb sneaked out just now, and it was this...uncle who sent Dumb back." Su Cheng suddenly realized that he didn't know how to address him.

Qin Canglan thought for a while and said, "My surname is Qin."

"Oh." Su Cheng rubbed his hands, because when Mao saw this person, he wanted to blackmail him——

Qin Canglan didn't know what Su Cheng was thinking, so he looked at Su Ergou.

Su Ergou was tanned, with pure black skin. Compared with those young men with pink hair and oily face in the capital, Qin Canglan thought that children like Su Ergou looked more pleasing to the eye.

Somehow, he thought of Qin Yun.

Qin Yun is about the same age as the child in front of him, but obviously, Qin Yun is much weaker. He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is not very strong physically. He is afraid of cold and heat. .

Su Ergou first put the dry goods into the kitchen, and then brought a bucket to feed the pony.

He holds such heavy buckets one by one in each hand, and he can see that he works often, with excellent arm strength and a stable foot.

"You want to feed the horse?" Qin Canglan asked.

The Qin family's iron cavalry was very powerful, and Qin Canglan had a lot of dealings with the horses, so when he saw Su Ergou's well-ordered things, he deduced that they were the feed for the horses.

Su Ergou said: "Yes."

Qin Canglan asked, "Is there no soda and alfalfa?"

"What?" Su Ergou said that he had never heard of it.

Qin Canglan said, "It's two kinds of pasture, the horse will grow stronger after eating it."

While mixing the feed, Su Ergou said, "Oh, then I'll go to the market to look for it next time."

I'm afraid there is nothing to sell in the market...

This kind of pasture is extremely rare in the capital. The Qin family has their own pasture, which is specially used for raising war horses in the military camp.

While Qin Canglan was thinking, Su Ergou went to the backyard and brought the little pony over.

Qin Canglan's eyes swept away, and he paused: "This horse..."

Su Ergou patted the pony's neck: "Oh, you said it, isn't it beautiful? My sister bought it. When I first bought it, it was thin and small. It was a premature cub. The folks said that it was a pony. If you don’t live, isn’t this a good way to raise it!”

The little pony puffed up its small chest very well, and jumped up and down twice.

Qin Canglan's eyes moved slightly.

This is a better desert horse than sweat horse.

"Can I...touch it?" Qin Canglan asked.

The cavalry commander can't put it down, except for weapons, there are only war horses.

"Oh, yes." Su Ergou patted the little pony and led it to Qin Canglan.

The foal is very well behaved.

Qin Canglan touched its mane and bones.

It was a purebred desert horse!

Qin Canglan was excited.

This kind of horse is very rare in the Great Zhou Dynasty. There were several horses in the Southwest Palace, but it is said that all of them were killed in battle.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the most common war horses were Mongolian horses and bloody horses.

Mongolian horses are cold-resistant, have strong survivability, and good resilience. They can provide horse blood to soldiers when necessary. They are the most commonly used war horses in the Northern Territory.

However, Mongolian horses are relatively short, and their explosive power and jumping power are not outstanding.

The explosive power of the sweat-blood horse is much stronger, and the sweat-blood horse can travel thousands of miles a day, and its endurance is amazing. The disadvantage is that it is not as cold-resistant as the Mongolian horse. It is heat-resistant and suitable for fighting in the desert.

But the sweat horse is not tall, and its carrying capacity is poor. It is mostly used for light cavalry, and it is too difficult for heavy cavalry.

Desert horses are the most comprehensive war horses, they can be ridden lightly or heavily, and most importantly, they have an extraordinary calmness on the battlefield.

"This kind of horse...it should be hard to buy..." Qin Canglan said.

Su Ergou said: "Originally it was not allowed to be sold. The mare is dead, and it is about to die. The people at the post station will do a good job and sell it to my sister."

Qin Canglan nodded, but at the same time, he was also surprised.

Having worked with horses for many years, he naturally understood that a foal cannot live without a mare.

Other mares will only feed their calf, not suckle it, and may even attack it.

Also, without the reassurance of the mare, some foals will starve.

Being able to feed it, I have to say, is a miracle.

"It took a lot of money, didn't it?" he asked, even if it was a dying desert pony, it would be—

Su Ergou said painfully: "That's right, it cost my sister a full forty taels!"

Qin Canglan almost choked to death on a bite of sweet potato!

What are you talking about?

Four, forty two?

Are you sure it's not four hundred taels?

He, Qin Canglan, is willing to spend four thousand taels to buy this horse!

Su Ergou mixed the feed and brought the pony over to eat.

Qin Canglan said, "I think this feed is a bit rough..."

Pony should not like to eat.

In the next second, Qin Canglan saw that the pony plunged headlong into its small wooden trough, and began to eat it!

It is an obedient baby horse, don't be picky!

Qin Canglan's expression was indescribable.

For Qin Canglan, who loves horses like his life, watching Su Ergou feed such a precious horse with roughage that he messed around with is as shocking as seeing the chief executive feeding the crown prince with pig food ——

Qin Canglan's whole body is not well!

...

On the other side, Su Xiaoxiao and Su Mo began to investigate the matter of the Duke Protector's Mansion.

Mainly start from three aspects, one is the concubine, this is a bit difficult, the guys can't see the appearance of the other party clearly, they can only draw it slowly.

The second is to find out whether Duke Protector Qin Canglan is related to the accident that year.

The third is Qin Che.

Qin Che was already sixteen years old when he came to recognize his relatives in the capital and the Duke of the Protectorate, so it is impossible for him to be ignorant.

Unless he is an orphan and doesn't remember his experiences before the age of six, then it is possible for him to believe that he is the real Qin Che under the condition of being "brainwashed".

The former is active concealment, the latter is passive.

But no matter which one, Qin Che definitely lied.

Because, what Qin Che said to the Duke Huguo's mansion at the beginning was: "I lost a piece of jade pendant, but luckily I have been wearing it all the time."

-----Off Topic-----

Rubbing my little hands, it doesn't matter if it's on the list or not, the main reason is that I want two warm monthly tickets.
