Because she had made up her mind, Wang Yongzhu's primary concern was still the pot of indigo, the mordant required for the dye, and some other miscellaneous items. So, she simply entrusted Wang Yongping with the task and let him go directly to Shopkeeper Wu to make the purchases.
It was also an opportunity for Wang Yongping.
Wang Yongping went to town, and when he came back, while he had bought the items, he seemed to be lost in thought.
During the meal, he was so absent-minded that he would grab at nothing in the empty plate with his chopsticks and still put it to his mouth as if he was chewing something.
This caused the children to barely stifle their laughter.
Old Granny Zhang slapped him with her chopsticks, "Have you lost your soul on a trip to town? Such an inexperienced thing you are. I just sent you to buy something, and you come back like this. How could I have given birth to such a blockhead!"
