How did the pony die in Xiangzi Camel?

The pony died in the arms of the old horse because she had no money for treatment.

Without the help of the pony, the old horse did not move the motor car, so he could only set up stalls to sell tea and biscuits.

The old horse was kind-hearted and warm-hearted, but was tortured by the corrupt society at that time. He is at the bottom of the society and dare not have much hope for life. He can only be at the mercy of fate and live a miserable life in poverty.

The old horse reveals the common fate that hard workers can't meet the basic needs of life; Revealed the dark social reality that does not let good people have a way out; It has become one of the key factors in the change of Xiangzi's attitude towards life.
