"Look at a skin from afar, and four hooves up close."

After entering the yard, when Zhu's father was tethering the black horse, he told Zhu Ping'an how to choose horses. Of course, these are also what Zhu's father has heard, and the old Zhu family has never bought a horse for so long. However, it is obvious that Zhu's father has also done his homework, at least this dark horse that kills Matt is still very strong.

Mother Chen went to the stove room to prepare dinner after seeing the black horse, and today Zhu's father came back early, and after tying up the black horse, he fed feed and water to the big black cow, which made the big black cow very proud, but he mooed vigorously towards the black horse, as if he was ostentatious.

Kill Matt Dark Horse's display of the big black bull, disdainful, flicking the horse's tail, circling around the pillar, it seems to be quite rhythmic.

After feeding the big black cow, the village blacksmith came to Zhu's house with a big box on his back, which was made by Zhu's father when he bought a horse in the town, and made an appointment to come over in the evening to give the newly bought horse a horseshoe.

This dark horse has just come of age and has not yet installed a horseshoe. Zhu's father thought that Zhu Ping'an was going to the capital to catch the exam, and he might have to go over mountains and mountains on the way, and installing a horseshoe on the black horse would be more suitable for the terrain.

A horseshoe is a horseshoe-like piece of iron that is driven directly into the horse's palm with a nail, which is a cuticle that is not painful, just like a thickened human fingernail. The function is to prevent the horse from excessive wear and tear on the soles of the feet during walking and running, which can hurt the horse's feet. Because the bottom of the horse's hooves is the horse's nails, which protects the horse's feet, the horse's nails can protect the horse's feet in nature, but in the use of horses, the horse's nails are often worn out more than the natural renewal, and the horseshoe is to protect the horse's feet, so that the horse can walk on various terrains such as flat ground, vertical and horizontal.

"This saddle is something I have nothing to do, so I should take it as a congratulatory gift to Ping An Lang." The blacksmith took out a saddle from the chest, placed it on the back of the black horse that killed Matt, and then demonstrated how to fix the saddle.

"Thank you, Uncle Sun, but my nephew can't let your work be in vain." Zhu Ping'an thanked him, but he still had to give money.

Zhu's father is also a real person, and he also said that he can't let Blacksmith Sun work in vain. It's also about giving money.

"If you have to give, then my horseshoe will be nailed." Blacksmith Sun shook his head and excused himself again and again, insisting on not charging money for not giving the nail horseshoe.

"How can it be done, the money should be given. You have to give it. Father Zhu was helpless and took a step back.

After blacksmith Sun shirked for a while, he also responded.

Although the dark horse that killed Matt was a little bit more arrogant, it still felt a little spiritual. When Blacksmith Sun fixed the saddle for it, the thing only turned its head curiously to look at it, and did not slap it.

Although this Matt-killing dark horse has just come of age, it doesn't feel like it's repulsive, and it should be easy to ride.

Blacksmith Sun retrieved a pile of horseshoes from the chest, as well as nails, hammers, sharply bent knives, and a few other loose household items. Zhu Ping'an looked at the horseshoe curiously, it was horseshoe-shaped, like a small C. There are seven holes around the perimeter, three on the left and four on the right.

Nail the horseshoe to the black horse that killed Matt is a hard job, blacksmith Sun bent over and squatted on the ground, with the assistance of Zhu's father, first used the very bent knife to cut the horse's hooves that grew too long short, and then cut the front edge of the horse's hooves and the heart out of the appropriate shape, and then trimmed them with a file.

On the other side, the charcoal fire burned with a stove, and the size of the horse's hooves was selected to kill Matt's black horse, and four horseshoes were thrown into the charcoal fire to burn red.

Kill Matt Dark Horse was extremely curious and stretched out his horse's head to watch all this. The horse's face was full of curiosity.

This thing is also born with a big heart, if it were other horses, it is estimated that it would have been abandoned a long time ago.

Blacksmith Sun used a hammer to beat the horseshoe on the iron block for a while. Then he clamped it with pliers, quickly pressed it on the horse's hooves that were lifted by Zhu's father, imprinted a trace, and then threw the horseshoe, which was still very hot, into the cold water and ice, saying that it could increase the wear resistance of the horseshoe.

The cooled horseshoe is then placed on the marked horse's hooves and the nails are hammered diagonally into it. The nail is specially made to hold the horseshoe in place. Blacksmith Sun, after a busy period of work, was finally done, and all four horseshoes were nailed to the horse's hooves.

The black horse of Kill Matt curiously frequently stretched out the horse's hooves and knocked on the ground, which seemed to be very comfortable, and the four horse's hooves knocked on the ground rhythmically, bumping and turning, walking back and forth around the stake.

The horse's face is high, and the handful of parted horsehair on his head flutters in the wind

A haughty tease to kill Matt.

After sending away Blacksmith Sun, Zhu's father also fed some hay sprinkled with salt water to the black horse that killed Matt, and the black horse ate very happily.

Saying that, there is no strange feeling at all about killing Matt's dark horse, and it is the same as being familiar, and it seems that it is adapted to this new home as soon as it enters the door, and I have to say that this product has a big heart.

After the big black horse ate the forage, Zhu's father took care of it, and Zhu Ping'an tried to step on the stirrup and rode on the black horse that killed Matt.

Uh, a bit heavy.

The black horse that killed Matt turned his head to look at the poor creature riding on his back, which could only walk on two hooves, and then lowered his head and continued to eat his own forage.

After dinner, his mother Chen made a pair of saddle cushions out of rabbit fur and coarse cloth overnight, and Zhu Ping'an sat on the cold saddle again on a cold day.

After making the cushion, the mother Chen tied the cushion to the saddle with a strap, fixed it, touched it with her hand, the plush was warm, and she put the saddle aside with satisfaction, and let Zhu Ping'an sit on it to try.

"It's so warm, thank you, mother."

Zhu Ping'an said that the saddle was placed on the stool, and he sat on it and tried it, it was soft, comfortable and warm, and he couldn't help but thank his mother Chen.

In the following time, in addition to reading, practicing calligraphy, and writing eight-strand strategies, Zhu Ping'an also had one more daily routine, that is, leading the black horse to practice horseback riding on the gentle hillside below the school.

Before practicing horseback riding, Zhu Ping'an contacted this arrogant funny and killing Matt dark horse as soon as he had time, feeding feed, feeding water, and brushing hair.

I have to say that this thing has a big heart.

Every time Zhu Ping'an turned over and rode on a black horse, this teaser always turned his head to look at the black horse that killed Matt, and then drove away, when the black horse of Kill Matt spread his hooves, Zhu Ping'an pulled the reins of the horse It was a little difficult to control the balance at first, but fortunately there was a saddle stirrup so that it would not fall off.

Saying that he has such a horse, if he puts it in modern times, he can be regarded as a family with a car, Zhu Ping'an stiffly rode on the black horse that killed Matt and laughed at himself, thinking to himself, in modern times, he was envious and jealous of those who had cars, but in ancient times, he satisfied his wishes.

"Giggle Zhu Ping'an, you are like a stupid toad stuck to the horse's back."

Just as Zhu Ping'an was stiffly practicing horseback riding, he suddenly heard a lark-like ridicule coming from behind. (To be continued.) )
