Mrs. Zhou laughed and said, “This is a newborn foal, right? Aiyooh Pangya, why did you buy such a thing back? It can’t be kept alive!” 

Aunt Wu also shook her hand and sighed, “Yeah, it looks like it’s going to die soon.” 

The daughter-in-law of the Sun family said, “Pangya, after doing this for a long time, you still got taken advantage of by others ah! At least this must be worth ten taels of silver, right?” 

Su Ergou opened his mouth and said, “What 10 taels ah! You misjudged the price! My older sister spent 40 taels!” 

“Forty taels…… just to buy a little horse cub that can’t be raised?” Mrs. Zhou was about to burst into laughter. 

She was doing business, and also helped others giving birth and treating illness. 

The villagers were all saying that Pangya had become more capable. But looking at what happened today, it was clear that she was still the same stupid girl who didn’t understand anything! 

The villagers’ thoughts were similar to Mrs. Zhou’s, and they also felt that Su Pangya spent her money on worthless things. 

The Su family, who was still proud and satisfied in the morning, once again became the laughing stock of the village. 

Mrs. Wu walked over silently and secretly pinched Liu Ping in a low voice, “How did you help Daya choose a horse? Why did you choose such a horse?” 

Liu Ping felt wronged. He had persuaded Daya, but she still insisted on buying it, so he couldn’t do anything, right? 

After all, he couldn’t beat Daya. 

Su Xiaoxiao said to Mrs. Zhou, “Aunt Zhou, don’t worry, I promise that I will raise it healthy and strong.” 

Just because others couldn’t raise the pony, didn’t mean she couldn’t either. 

If she didn’t even have this confidence, how could she possibly spend money to buy it? 

“Alright alright, disperse, all disperse!” Father Su dispersed the villagers. 

The villagers left, but none of them believed that Su Xiaoxiao could raise the pony. 

——

After Mrs. Zhou went back, the first thing she did was to gossip about Su Pangya’s stupid behavior to Mrs. Fang and her daughter. 

Several women were sitting in Su Yuniang’s room. 

Su Yuniang was feeding her child. 

After following Su Pangya’s recipes for a few days, her vitality had recovered quite a lot and started to have some milk, but not too much. 

She would go to Old Li Tou’s house and asked Mrs. Zhao’s help to feed her child several times during the day, and at night, she would feed her by herself. 

Su Jinniang said, “In this weather, the pony won’t be able to survive, I pity those 40 taels of silver.” 

Her mouth said pity, but her tone was clearly gloating. 

“She had only been doing business for a month and already earned 40 taels……” Mrs. Fang’s focus was not on that horse. 

It was rare that Su Yuniang didn’t defend Su Pangya, because even she believed that Su Pangya had made a losing deal. 

Adult horses were expensive, about 70 – 80 taels of silver, and those were the price for the common breeds, the good ones were hard to find. 

Buying a horse for 40 taels might seem cheap, but after all, it was a little pony that would die soon. 

Mrs. Zhou couldn’t hide her mockery and insult, “Saying that they were going to buy goods! From what I see, they might have lost her capital as well! A girl should just stay at home! No decent woman would behave like her, who keeps showing her face in the public and doing business like a man! It’s good now, she has lost everything!” 

Su Yuniang frowned. 

“Mom.” She said, “I feel a bit uncomfortable, I want to sleep.” 

Mrs. Fang said, “Ah, fine, then we’ll go out first.” 

——

Liu Ping drove the ox cart and sent everyone to the Su family house. 

Old Li Tou and Lizheng* also came over.

*Lizheng (里正) : An official position in ancient china, mainly in charge of household registrations and tax payment. 

They didn’t join the spectacle at the village entrance, mainly concerned about Su Xiaoxiao’s reputation. 

But now there was no one else, they felt that they needed to give their opinion. 

“Daya, why did you buy the pony?” Lizheng asked. 

The three little ones raised their small heads and looked at Su Xiaoxiao with concerns.
