Shu Yu climbed onto the ox-cart, placed the rice and flour next to her, and the cart departed back to Shangshi Village.
Daniu's personality was shy and introverted, but unexpectedly, he was quite an entrepreneur.
Along the way, he would pick up a few villagers who were also heading towards Shangshi Village, and collect one coin each from them as a transportation fee.
After all, even though the ox cart was borrowed, they had to pay rent. A round trip cost ten coins.
The old lady's heart ached for the rent.
Da Niu thus earned four coins on the way back and was quite happy.
When the ox cart arrived at Shangshi Village, only Daniu, Shu Yu, and another woman from the village were left on the cart.
Just as they entered the village, a villager ran up to them and asked, "Daniu, you're back? Where's your grandma and second uncle?"
