Shitou ran out of the house quickly. As soon as he left the yard, he met Tian Xiaoman and Tian Xiaochun who were coming in through the gate.

"Second sister! Little sister! You guys are back? How's it going? Did you sell it?"

These days, Mu Tou felt like his days were passing by badly, and he was always thinking about this matter in his mind.

Those are three alpacas! If they were all sold, they would fetch at least 10 or 20 taels, right?

My little sister said that the thing could be sold for a high price, but Mu Tou always felt that, to put it bluntly, it's just an animal, no different from sheep or pigs. It would be the best if one could be sold for ten taels of silver, right?

——That’s because my sister made the sheep and tuo look weird and cute. Otherwise, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to sell them for even ten taels of silver.

"What? Third brother wants to count the silver again?"

Mu Tou's face turned red, obviously because his sister guessed his thoughts and he felt a little embarrassed.

He smiled slightly and immediately changed the subject, "Little sister, why do you think so quickly? You've seen through your third brother's little hobby!

Also, Third Brother asked you to bring some delicious food from the city. Have you brought it for him?

I heard from my neighbor Zhao Xiaoshu that there is a smoked chicken shop in Fucheng that sells smoked chicken that is unique in Fucheng.

I've been so greedy these days that I can't sleep at night. Little sister, did you buy it or not?"

Mu Tou kept on nagging, and when he looked up, he saw Tian Xiaoman's helpless look. His heart skipped a beat, "Little sister, don't tell me - you didn't buy it? Hey! When we left, didn't Third Brother tell you? I told you to persuade Dad to buy some local specialties and bring them back. That's roasted smoked chicken, smoked chicken!

Oh my, it's only because I can't go by myself. If I go to the capital by myself, Third Brother will definitely bring you back ten smoked chickens, not to mention one. Don't be picky, little sister, oh my--"

Mu Tou sighed, and Tian Xiaoman suddenly burst into laughter, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'll bring it to you."

"One?"

"How can I only have one? I brought several!"

"Really?"

Mu Tou's eyes lit up, and without waiting for Tian Xiaoman to say anything, he ran quickly towards Shi Tou who was unloading things from the donkey cart.

"Brother, let me help you carry it. There are so many things, it will be tiring to carry them by yourself!"

Shitou's mouth twitched. Didn't he know what his younger brother was thinking?

As the old saying goes, if you are too nice to others without any reason, they are either a traitor or a thief. The fact that you are helping me unload things is fake. Let's see what food I brought from the city.

Wang also came out of the house soon after. As soon as she left the house, she saw Tian Xiaoman and Tian Xiaochun standing in the yard.

"My girls, you're finally back! Come here, let me see you, you've lost weight, so much weight!"

Wang held her two daughters, one in her left hand and one in her right hand, and sighed continuously.

It was Tian Xiaoman who interrupted her mother's chattering, "Mom, let's unload everything from the car. We can talk later if we have anything to say."

"Yes, yes, my daughter is right."

As soon as Wang came out of the yard, she saw Tian Danian unloading things from the carriage. Wang was stunned, "Hey, how much did you guys buy? And you even rented a carriage to come back?"

Tian Xiaoman took Wang's arm and said, "Mom, I have good news for you. This carriage is not rented, but bought by our family."

"Did we buy it?"

Wang's eyes widened in disbelief, and she quickly calculated the price of a carriage in her mind.

A horse would cost at least 10 or 20 taels of silver, and a cart would cost at least 10 or 2 taels of silver. If you calculate it this way, oh my, that's more than 20 taels!

However, Wang was afraid that her daughter would try to deceive her, so she looked at Tian Xiaochun and said, "Second brother, you are always honest. You tell the truth!"

Tian Xiaochun smiled and nodded, "Mom, what my younger sister said is true, this carriage was really bought by our family."

"Ouch——" Wang slapped her thigh. She was about to say something when she suddenly realized that she was in front of her own home and immediately swallowed back what she was about to say.

She covered her mouth with her hands, her face full of smiles, but she was very happy in her heart. It seemed that the three alpacas had to be sold for this trip to the capital city. Otherwise, how would she have the money to buy a carriage and these old things?

At this moment, a chubby boy popped his head out of the carriage, holding a few pieces of cloth in his hand and handing them to Tian Danian who was under the carriage.

The smile on Wang's face had not yet faded. Seeing this, she was stunned, "This, this——"

She pointed at Hanhan and asked, "Who is this?"

When Hanhan heard Wang's voice, he glanced at her with a big smile on his face, "Hello, Auntie!"

On the way, Tian Xiaoman told him that she had an older brother and an old mother at home, and the woman who could stand so closely with Xiaoman and Xiaochun must be Xiaoman's mother.

Xiaoman said that he should just call Xiaoman's mother "Auntie". Hanhan was very obedient and called Wang "Auntie" whenever he saw her.

Wang smiled awkwardly and waved at Hanhan, "Okay, okay."

Then, she gently pulled her two daughters, and the three of them went into the yard together.

"Second brother, fourth brother, who is this? Which shop assistant is this? No way! It's too far away, how could the assistant come with you.

Besides, I don’t think any store would allow you to buy something with a waiter, right?”

Wang's mumbling made Tian Xiaoman and her sister do not know whether to laugh or cry.

"Mom, what are you talking about? Hanhan is not a boy!"

"Who is Hanhan?"

Tian Xiaoman quickly explained, "The Hanhan that Second Sister is talking about is the chubby boy in the car. His name is Hanhan."

Tian Xiaoman pointed to his head again, "He's a little mentally ill, Mom, just treat him like a five or six-year-old child."

Wang was skeptical, but now was not a good time to ask further questions.

In a short while, Tian Danian and others had unloaded all the things from the horse-drawn carriage and donkey cart.

"Dad, are we going to return the donkey cart tonight?"

Tian Danian looked at the sky. They had been busy all day and were very tired. "No, I'll go back tomorrow morning. Let's get it into the yard first."

Shitou responded, removed the harness from the donkey, led the donkey into the backyard and tied it to a wooden stake.

Tian Danian did much the same as Shitou. He also led the horse into the backyard and even added a lot of fodder to the donkey and the horse.

Ever since the Tian family started raising alpacas behind their house, they have had sufficient fodder, and Wang and Mu Tou would bring back a lot almost every day.

Hanhan stood in front of the Tian family's gate, scratching his head with a puzzled look on his face.

"Brother Shitou, why don't you and Uncle Tian drive the car directly into the yard?"

Shitou pointed to the gate of his own house, with the same helpless look on his face. "The threshold of my house is high, and the car can't get in. I had to unload the luggage first. As for the car, we can just carry it in later."

Hanhan: Carry it in? Why do we need several people? He can do it alone!
