Sun Tiezhu grinned broadly, praising Pei Qin's abilities incessantly and mentioned that he wanted Lady Fang and the others to have lunch at home, "...I'll go out and cut the meat first!"
Pei Qin called him back, "For lunch, my mother and the others are setting up a stall, so we should first go to the county town to see the situation and how much we can negotiate."
"Look how anxious you are!" Lady Zou said with a laugh, giving him a playful glare.
Sun Tiezhu scratched his head and smiled happily with his mouth wide open.
When Zou Xing drove over with the donkey cart, and all the wooden and iron hand carts were covered with cloth and loaded onto the cart, Sun Tiezhu and Zou Xing followed Pei Qin to the county town.
Landlord Chang had already instructed the shopkeeper to wait at his home and left a message with the gatekeeper to let Pei Qin in directly upon arrival.
