I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

"Of course I'll stay at your house."

"my home?"

"He Fangfang has been exiled, and Wang Qingshan and his three children have been driven out. The house is vacant. You can pay some money to the village and live there."

"..."

Wang Qiuyue suddenly felt that her worries were unnecessary. What was wrong with Aning's brain? How could she react so quickly?

Presumably, from the moment she decided to buy someone, she had already thought about how to settle the family. If she guessed correctly, Aning had also thought about what they would do.

"So where are we going next? Home?"

"Eat something, I'm hungry."

After saying that, she pulled Wang Qiuyue to the snack street next door.

"Aning, you want to eat the wontons from that stall, right? The stall doesn't look big, but it tastes really good."

Wang Qiuyue has been thinking about it ever since she ate the wontons and pies from that restaurant last time she came to town. She tried to make them twice at home, but neither tasted the same.

When Song An Ning pulled her over here just now, she knew that An Ning was craving for this.

"Hey, you still understand me."

After Song An Ning said this with a smile, she turned around and looked at a few people. In fact, she was not very hungry, but she looked at the time. It was already noon. Even if she was not hungry, the people following her still needed to eat.

Last time she heard from Chen Guanghui that there was an unwritten rule in the dental clinic that the person who bought the item would only be given one bite to eat, as long as they were not starving to death.

This not only saves food, but also prevents them from escaping.

Now that she has become the head of the family, she must make sure everyone has enough to eat.

When they arrived at the wonton stall, there were still three empty tables. After Song Anning and Wang Qiuyue sat down, the Xiao family stood motionless not far away.

"Uncle Ming, Aunt Lanying, come and have dinner."

Seeing Song An Ning waving at them, Xiao Ming quickly shook his head:

"Just eat it, girl. We are not hungry."

"..."

They were just servants, and after this incident, they became even more timid. They felt that they, as slaves, were not worthy of eating what their masters ate, even if they could afford it.

Both husband and wife grew up in big houses, and the idea of clear hierarchy is ingrained in them.

Song Anning felt somewhat helpless. She walked forward, pulled Xiao Yingchun over, asked her to sit next to her, and said to the others:

"We girls will sit at one table, and the four of you will sit at another. The wontons are already in the pot and can't be wasted. Even if you're not hungry, at least help me eat some."

"Thank you, thank you, Miss."

Five people sat on the stools, not daring to sit firmly, looking very restrained.

"My name is Song Anning, and I live in Banyue Village. You can just call me Aning.

The one next to me is Qiuyue, my sister."

"Miss Aning, Miss Qiuyue, I've made note of this."

"..."

Song Anning closed her eyes in despair, holding her forehead with both hands. Was it that all she said was in vain?

Come to think of it, they have been exposed to this idea since birth. If they want to change it, it won't happen overnight. Just take it slowly.

After seven bowls of wontons were served, the aunt selling wontons brought a large stack of pies, about ten or so.

Song An Ning took the lead and picked up a pancake and started eating it in big mouthfuls. He didn't eat anything, and the others didn't move their chopsticks either.

It’s not that she was greedy, but Xiao Yuanbao was so big that it felt like he could finish half a bowl of pancakes.

They had been hungry for so long, and eating too much at once would hurt their stomachs. She could only control the amount slightly and let them recover their strength first.

Wang Qiuyue thought that there would be leftovers after ordering so many pancakes, but she didn't expect that after Aning said not to leave any leftovers, Xiao Yuanbao ate four pancakes by himself. Even so, he still felt a little unsatisfied.

"Aning, this guy eats too much! Can we afford to feed him?"

After dinner, Wang Qiuyue and Song An Ning were walking on the street. They were some distance away from the others, so Wang Qiuyue leaned over and whispered in Song An Ning's ear.

"He can eat and work. With his size, he can lift you up with one hand."

"Well, it's a good thing. With such a big guy at home, no one else dares to come and cause trouble."

Wang Qiuyue stuck out her tongue mischievously and walked slowly on the street holding Song Anning's hand. This was the first time she went shopping with complete relaxation of body and mind. The shops were still the same as before, but now looking at it this way, there was a different feeling.

"Uncle Ming, do you know where to buy livestock in town? I haven't seen any at the market outside town before."

It just so happened that spring plowing was about to begin, and Song An Ning was thinking of buying two cows to plow the fields, but his grandfather was old, and apart from him, no one in the family could drive a cart.

After buying this family today, she wanted to get this done immediately. Xiao Ming and Xiao Yuanbao are on the farm all year round and will also use these.

"The livestock seller is on the west side of town, just down the road from the dock.

There used to be cattle for sale at the market, but most of the food sold there was good, and the animals were tasty. As time went on, the other vendors became less interested, so they all went to the west of the city to trade.”

"Uncle Ming should know how to pick a plowing ox, right? I plan to go to the west of the city to buy two. We have a lot of land at home, and they will be perfect for spring plowing."

Hearing Song An Ning ask this, Xiao Ming and Xiao Yuanbao both became interested.

They had been dealing with these people all day long before and were very familiar with everything used in farming. This was also the reason why they were willing to go to the Song family. They did not have any great abilities, only some attainments in farming.

"Don't worry, young lady. Yuanbao and I will pick them."

“Okay, then I’ll leave this matter to Uncle Ming and Brother Yuanbao.

Let's go find two carriages first. It's a bit far, so we can go there by car."

"Hey, I'll do it right away."

While waiting for the carriage to arrive, Xiao Qinshi also pulled Xiao Yuanyuan and Yingchun over and asked tentatively:

"I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should tell you."

Song Anning was talking to Wang Qiuyue about selling chili seedlings tomorrow morning when she suddenly heard Xiao Qinshi talking and was a little surprised.

"Aunt, don't be a slave from now on. I'm not from a wealthy family. I didn't buy you back to serve me. Just do your job well.

We still have a long time to spend together, so let's be direct and just say what we want to say."

After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other, and Xiao Qinshi finally spoke:

"Slave... I want to say, the girl looks young, isn't it a bit inappropriate for her to be out in public all day?

Since you can buy us, you are at least a girl from a wealthy family. If you are often away from home, it will delay your marriage..."

After she said this, she felt a little regretful, wondering if she had overstepped the mark.

Song An Ning understood what she meant. Xiao Qinshi also had good intentions.

Having lived in a big mansion for so long, she believes that girls should be kept in seclusion and never have to do any housework, instead of wandering around the streets and eating like Song Anning.

“Auntie, I’m not from a wealthy family, I’m just a girl from the village.

All day long, I'm either running in the mountains or working in the fields, and I also have to do business with Zuixianju. The kind of life you described, reading books, drinking tea, and appreciating flowers, is not suitable for me."

"Yes, Lanying has noted it."

Xiao Qin bowed apologetically, still feeling somewhat puzzled. What about the rest of the Song family? Wouldn't anyone come out? Why would they let a girl who hadn't even reached marriageable age take charge?

She didn't dare ask any more questions. She would know everything once she arrived in Banyue Village.

When the carriage arrived at the west of the city, the group got off and walked towards the livestock market. As soon as they arrived at the door, a foul odor hit them in the face.

Perhaps he had not recovered from the heatstroke he suffered in the morning. Song Anning felt his eyes go dark and he quickly grabbed Wang Qiuyue who was beside him.
