Chapter 240: 252

252 Looking Around

However, most of them said that it was a good thing that she passed. People like Zhang Meili and Chen Zhuzi deserved to die. One was an animal, and the other was almost like an animal. So much so that the animal even wanted to sell other people’s daughters. If she didn’t die from the crash, the heavens would punish her eventually.

Some people said that it was good that Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had died.

All these years, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had always been on Chen Laoba’s side, making Chen Laoyi and the others suffer. Now that they were dead, there were no more looming helicopters above Chen Laoyi and the others’ heads. They could all relax now that they were gone.

They also said that Chen Laoyi and the others were much better than Chen Laoba. At least they wouldn’t do embarrassing things like him.

When Xue Dafu and the others came back from the fields, they all had a say about this matter, and then no one said anything more.

However, the next day, Xue Dagui still allowed Xue Gouzi to go to Chen Village to see Zhang Meili.

Xue Da had said that no matter what, Zhang Meili was still the mother of Xue Gouzi. Now that she is dead, the dead should be respected. Since Xue Gouzi had such a compassionate heart, he was allowed to say goodbye to his mother.

Jiang Yue and the others did not see Xue Gouzi go to Chen Village because his family had to go to town to buy cattles and pigs.

It was easy to buy pigs, but hard to buy cattles. There were two kinds of cattles in town, gelbvieh cattle and water buffaloes. They each had their own advantages, but Xue Dafu and the others had not decided whether to buy gelbvieh cattles or buffaloes.

Logically speaking, this was the South, where buffaloes were the most common, while the North had the most gelbvieh cattle.

Buffaloes were stronger than gelbvieh cattle, and they could plow more land than gelbvieh cattles. However, buffaloes ate more grass than gelbvieh cattles, and buffaloes were particularly adverse to heat.

That was because buffaloes did not have developed sweat glands. When it was hot, buffaloes would usually soak in water to maintain their body temperature.

In short, water buffaloes were not as agile as gelbvieh cattle.

It could also be said that water buffaloes were suitable for paddy fields, while gelbvieh cattle were suitable for dry land.

Moreover, the gelbvieh cattle’s meat was more delicious than the water buffaloes. However, the cattles here were not allowed to be slaughtered casually, unless they were old and sick and could no longer pull their weight for the family. They also needed the approval of the government before they could be slaughtered. In that case, this rule was not within consideration.

Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Yifu, and Li Hehua all wanted to buy buffaloes. They felt that buffaloes were stronger and could plow more fields in a day than a gelbvieh cattle. On the other hand, Xue Erfu, Yu Hongyan, Xue Sifu, and Xue Wufu wanted to buy gelbvieh cattle. They felt that gelbvieh cattle would be easier to raise and were resistant to heat. They could also pull an ox cart to town on hot days and it was fine if they were not soaked in water.

Four to four, no one could convince the other.

The eight of them looked at Jiang Yue and Xue Xiao, “What do you think?”

Xue Yan didn’t care what kind of cattle they wanted to buy, so he looked at Jiang Yue and let her speak first. He would choose whatever cattle she wanted.

Jiang Yue said, “I want the cattle. The cattle can plow more land in a day than the buffalo. Our family has so much land. Whether we buy the cattle or buffalo, we can finish plowing the land soon enough. However, Xue Sifu wants to do business, so we have to go to town. If we have a ride at home, we can make our own ox cart to go to town. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there is no water in town for the buffalo to soak in. The heat will be unbearable, and the buffalo will go crazy. It will be bad if they hurt people.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Xue Dafu and the other three were immediately convinced. “We forgot about that. What about you Xue Yan?”

They thought that maybe he had other opinions about this, so they all looked at Xue Yan and waited for an answer.
