"When the time comes, we'll also get a small cart for the ox to pull," An Jing said with a smile, "That way, we'll have an ox cart, and we won't have to walk to town anymore."
"Hmm." After a pause, Xiao Changyi asked, "We still have a hundred jin of fermented bean curd at home. Shall we take some to sell in town tomorrow?"
An Jing shook her head, "No, not tomorrow. We will go with empty hands, specifically to buy an ox and a cart. Once we have the ox cart, we can go to sell the fermented bean curd. That way, we won't have to carry the curd ourselves, and we won't need to get up so early anymore."
Riding an ox cart would certainly be much faster than walking to town.
"Hmm." He followed her lead, having no objections of his own.

Oxen could not only plow fields but also be used for transportation. In this world, oxen were not allowed to be slaughtered privately. Only when an ox grew old and became useless could its owner apply to the government for permission to slaughter it.
