Su Panpan, Shen Ru and Erniu returned to the village in an ox cart.

Erniu took Su Panpan and Shen Ru back first.

When the ox cart stopped at the gate of Su Panpan's courtyard, Su Panpan got off the cart holding the items she had bought. Erniu also helped to move the items to the door and said with a smile, "Panpan, will you continue to sell candied haws tomorrow?"

Su Panpan nodded and smiled, "Well, it's still early. Let's continue making candied haws today. Let's do it tomorrow morning at the same time. Erniu, thank you for your hard work today."

"This is not hard work at all! Panpan, you paid so much money, which is a good job for me, haha." Erniu joked.

At this time, Shen Ru was also happily carrying large and small bags and going over. Erniu hurried to help move the things into the yard.

Shen Ru said gratefully, "Erniu, thank you. We'll continue tomorrow." Erniu smiled innocently and replied, "Okay, Sister-in-law Shen."

Qin Mu, Xiaoxiao, Qin Xiao, Yueyue, Linlin, and Sisi had all gathered around the ox cart to help move things and greeted Erniu.

After sending them off, Erniu drove the ox cart back home.

He strode into the yard carrying the newly bought farm tools, a hoe and a sickle.

Zhang Fulai was originally sorting some miscellaneous items in the yard. When he looked up and saw the brand new thing in Erniu's hand, he widened his eyes in surprise. His eyes were wide open, like copper bells, as if they were about to jump out of their sockets at any time.

The youngest son, who is usually so stingy and reluctant to buy anything, would actually buy farm tools for the family?

"Erniu, what are you doing? Why did you buy such good hoes and sickles?" Zhang Fulai's voice trembled slightly unconsciously.

Erniu smiled proudly.

He said loudly, "Dad, I see that our old hoe is all rusted and the blade is dull, so today I made some money doing business with Panpan, so I bought a new one that will work better."

After saying that, he deliberately waved the hoe in his hand towards his father.

Then, Erniu unloaded a big fat goose, spare ribs, as well as Codonopsis pilosula, Astragalus membranaceus, wolfberry, etc. from the ox cart.

Wang Hexiang and Lin Xiu'e were chatting in the kitchen. The moment they saw these things, they opened their mouths so wide in shock that it seemed as if a big goose egg could fit in them.

Wang Hexiang covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes widened, and she stammered, "Erniu, what's wrong with you? You bought so many things today." Her eyes were full of confusion and shock, as if she had seen something incredible.

Erniu smiled and handed the osmanthus cake, walnut cake and buns to Baoer, Laner and Maitian, and the children jumped for excitement.

Baoer shouted excitedly: "Wow! There are delicious foods! Uncle, you are so awesome!" While shouting, he ran around in the yard like a happy little rabbit.

Lan'er held the osmanthus cake and walnut cake tightly, and stroked the wrapping paper carefully, fearing that she would damage it.

Maitian danced with joy, circled around Erniu, and kept shouting, "Uncle, will you buy us food again in the future? It won't be just this time, right?" His little face was full of anticipation and excitement, and his rosy cheeks were like a ripe apple.

"You're really something. You're already thinking about the next time before you even start eating!" Erniu poked Zhang Maitian's head twice and said with a smile.

Zhang Fulai, Wang Hexiang and Lin Xiu'e also laughed when they heard this.

"Mom, I bought these with the money I earned from doing business with Panpan. I still have more than 90 cents left, so this is for you." Erniu said as he handed the money to Wang Hexiang.

Wang Hexiang frowned and said suspiciously, "Erniu, did you gamble? Where did you get so much money to buy so many things?"

Her voice was full of worry and suspicion, and her hands were tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, as if she was afraid that something bad would happen.

Erniu hurriedly defended himself, "Mom, have you ever seen anyone win money from gambling? This is really earned from doing business with Panpan. If you don't believe me, go ask Panpan." His face was full of eagerness and sincerity, and he looked at Wang Hexiang with firm eyes.

At the same time, Shen Ru also returned home.

Qin Youwen was reading a book in the room and came out when he heard the noise.

When he saw the fish, hens, cakes, buns, walnuts and peanuts that Shen Ru bought, he was very surprised. His eyes were wide open, his mouth was slightly open, and the book in his hand fell to the ground unconsciously.

However, when he saw the new clothes he bought for Sisi and Linlin, he was so shocked that he was speechless, as if he had been cast under a spell.

He stood there blankly, motionless, his eyes fixed on the beautiful clothes.

When Sisi and Linlin saw that they had new clothes to wear, they were so excited that they couldn't stop smiling. They even forgot to eat the cakes. Linlin kept trying on the new clothes, while Sisi showed off her hairbands and accessories.

Linlin is at the age where she starts to love to show off.

Shen Ru recalled the past days and felt a lot of emotions in her heart.

Once upon a time, in order to make a living, she had to be frugal and spend every penny carefully.

When buying things, I always carefully choose the cheapest ones. I can only look at those exquisite items from afar and dare not have any extravagant hopes.

The children's clothes were all sewn and patched, and there was nothing luxurious about them.

We rarely saw meat on the table at home, let alone buying big fish, old hens and various dried goods like we do now.

Now, with this generous income, she can choose what she likes and bring a good life to her children and family.

Seeing how much Sisi and Linlin liked these beautiful clothes, hair flowers and hair accessories, she made up her mind to work hard to make money.

Feeling the remaining money in her pocket, Shen Ru approached Qin Youwen mysteriously and whispered, "Youwen, let me tell you, after buying so many things, I still have 300 coins left."

Qin Youwen opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief. He felt as if he was dreaming.

His heart was like a raging storm, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he stammered, "This...this is too unbelievable."

As he spoke, he pinched himself, as if he couldn't believe what he saw.

As Su Panpan entered the courtyard, she saw strings of hawthorns placed on a square plate. Each hawthorn was round and plump, with six in a string, exactly the same as her standard yesterday.

There are also a few baskets of freshly picked hawthorns next to it.

Qin Mu, Xiaoxiao, Qin Xiao and Yueyue have become accustomed to Su Panpan buying so many things every time she goes to the market, and they are no longer shocked. Only Yueyue would occasionally exclaim in surprise.

So, after they got the things, they poured a cup of warm water for Su Panpan and then continued with their work.

Qin Mu was responsible for washing, Xiaoxiao, Qin Xiao, and Yueyue were responsible for stringing. Yueyue would occasionally string a few wrongly, and Xiaoxiao would pick them out and string them again.
