Because they had to accommodate the pace of both the ox cart and the donkey cart, Qian Yixiu and the others didn't arrive in Wen County until late afternoon. To make up time, they didn't even get off the cart for a meal, instead, they had some pastries on the cart to stave off hunger.
Monkey Brother and Benben were restless sitting in the cart and wanted to go out and run alongside it. Qian Yixiu did not agree. Benben might obediently follow along, but who knew what mischief this naughty Monkey Brother might get into? Besides, his unusual appearance could easily bring trouble. So, she told him about how different the big ship they would board was from the small boat they rode in at Guiyuan, how big it was, and how many levels it had. If he didn't behave, she would send him back and he wouldn't be able to board the big ship. Hearing this, Monkey Brother finally settled down.
