Mu Zhiyuan leaned against the gate of Liuxiang Snacks and watched the troublemaker leave, and then he felt relieved.

Lu Da saw Mu Zhiyuan and shouted to him: "Brother Mu, I saw you just now. You were standing at the door. Why didn't you come in?"

Mu Zhiyuan then came to the counter in the inner hall and said, "I originally planned to come over and help you drive away the shopkeeper, but when I saw Zhang Xiucai called him in, I waited at the door. Fortunately He's not really here to cause trouble today, Ah Shu, I've already installed the parasol at the door for you."

Everyone laughed and said nothing, Lou Lan'er joked: "Brother Mu, you are just an afterthought, it's really thanks to the scholar being here today~"

"Okay, stop making trouble and go to work quickly!" Shui Xi rushed Lou Lan'er and Xiao Qing to the kitchen.

When she saw Mu Zhiyuan, she remembered that she had made an appointment with him to go to Niujia Village in the afternoon to buy a sheep to use for roasting the whole sheep.

"Yeah, Brother Mu, look at my memory. There's been a lot going on in the store recently, so I forgot about it. Let's go, otherwise it will get dark."

Aunt Chen was relieved when she saw someone accompanying Mao Xi to the outside of the town. Before leaving, she did not forget to warn her: "Amu, be careful on the road. The mountain road is not easy to walk, so there is no need to rush."

On the way to Niujiacun, Mao Xi asked Mu Zhiyuan: "Brother Mu, if Zhang Xiucai didn't come out to rescue the siege just now and Lu Da and I really got into a fight with Nayou shop owner, what should we do?"

"Then I can only rush up and drive him away forcibly. I won't let you be bullied."

Mao Xi felt warm in her heart.

"But I believe you won't fight him. The store owner is just bluffing. If there is really going to be trouble today, he will definitely bring a few thugs with him, or go to the Street Department to report you for the random construction."

"Brother Mu, do you really believe that I can solve today's dispute? I can't even solve the problem of the slope in front of my house." Mao Xi was still feeling uncomfortable about the slope that was demolished just after it was repaired.

Mu Zhiyuan drove the donkey cart and continued: "The demolition of the slope last time was just a temporary measure. I have thought about it. If the old woman Zou is still so stubborn, I will ask two thugs from the house to go over, repair the road, and stand there Guard.”

"Is this your method? It feels a bit hasty. Let's see how Xiucai solves it tonight."

When they arrived at Niujia Village, Niu Sanhua was already waiting for Mao Xi.

"Ah Shu, the mutton you want has been prepared for you, but do you want to take away the roasted whole lamb now? It's best to kill it and eat it now!"

"Kill now and eat tonight."

Niu Sanhua said that the lamb from Aunt Niu's house was the best for roasting a whole lamb. She took the two of them to Aunt Niu's house to select the lamb.

Aunt Niu knew Mao Xi and Mu Zhiyuan. There was a time when the lamb ran away, and Mu Zhiyuan helped pull it back.

When she saw the two of them today, she immediately chose a fat lamb and asked her son to slaughter it right away.

"Brother, when my lambs were let out to graze, another one was lost. I searched for it all day and couldn't find it. Can you help me find it? I'll give you a 20% discount on this lamb!"

"Auntie, I'm the best at finding sheep. Leave it to me. Where did you lose the sheep?"

Aunt Niu said that the sheep usually liked to run around, and she didn't know where it was lost.

Niu Sanhua took Mao Xi and Mu Zhiyuan to the back mountain of Niujia Village to help search together.

Mao Xi had never raised sheep before, so she didn't know what feed sheep liked, so she asked, "Sister Sanhua, what kind of grass do sheep generally like to eat?"

"Put straw and white radish on the mountain. They like to find alfalfa, mulberry leaves, and wheatgrass to eat."

Mao Xi suggested that we first go to places where alfalfa and other weeds grow.

Mu Zhiyuan saw some sheep hoof prints in the alfalfa field, and followed the footprints and saw some black sheep dung at a clump of icegrass.

Along the way, everyone continued to search into the mountains and forests, following the sheep's hoof prints and sheep dung, and finally found Aunt Niu's lost sheep beside the mulberry tree.

It was eating delicious mulberry leaves and did not panic when seeing people. Instead, it followed Niu Sanhua out of the mountain obediently.

Seeing that these wild mulberry leaves were growing very well, Mao Xi asked Niu Sanhua to take the sheep away first, and then he picked some mulberry leaves and stored them in the space.

Mu Zhiyuan was puzzled and asked Mao Xi what he used to pick mulberry leaves.

Mulberry leaves have the effect of clearing the liver and improving eyesight. Mao Xi plans to dry the mulberry leaves to make mulberry leaf tea. Not only can he drink it by brewing it, but he can also sell herbal tea in the store.

Moreover, Xiaodouzi, Zhang Xiucai and cousin Yuying use their eyes a lot, so drinking black bean water boiled with fresh mulberry leaves can also protect their eyesight.

Aunt Niu was very happy when she saw the lost sheep. She gave the slaughtered sheep to Shu Xi and invited them to come to her house in two days to eat pig-killing vegetables.

"Okay, we must come, let's leave first!" Mu Zhiyuan took Shui Xi and drove the donkey cart out of Niujia Village.

"Brother Mu, I didn't expect to have a special harvest today. I think that wild mulberry forest is growing very well. In April, the mulberries will be ripe and you can come and pick the fruits."

"Okay, I'll accompany you then!"

Mu Zhiyuan did not move forward at full speed. He liked to drive the donkey slowly on the country roads and chat with Mao Xi. Otherwise, when she returned to the shop and got into the kitchen, she would be too busy to talk to him.

Mao Xi poked her head out of the car, hating that Mu Zhiyuan's donkey cart was driving too slowly. She had to go back to the store to prepare food. In the evening, the restaurant had to make samples in advance and go home to make roasted whole lamb.

"Brother Mu, your cart is driving too slowly. Didn't you always ride a horse when traveling around the world? How come you can't adapt to the climate when you switch to a donkey cart?"

Mao Xi's provocation method was of no use to Mu Zhiyuan. He used his mother-in-law Chen's instructions to excuse him, saying that he should not go too fast on the mountain road and continued to drive the donkey cart slowly.

"Don't worry, we'll be back in Ewha Town before dark!"

Mao Xi thought of Xiao Hu and asked, "Brother Mu, what happened to the little tiger and the dolls that were rescued from the acrobatic troupe leader last time?"

"You and Lou Lan'er burned their deeds of sale. Some of them were sold at such a young age that they don't remember where their home is. Those who still remember it don't want to go back to the relatives who sold them, so Zhang Capt. sent them away. Go to the martial arts school to study, and you might have the opportunity to work as a government servant in the future."

Mao Xi recalled that day when she and Lou Lan'er teamed up to burn the children's contracts, which was all inspired by her modern passion.

Later, she learned that in order to change from a lowly registered citizen to a good citizen, she needed to go to the government to apply for a registered residence transfer. Fortunately, Mu Zhiyuan later coordinated and reissued the household registrations of A Dong and Xiao Hu.

But Mao Xi has no regrets. She cannot bear to see such a small baby become a slave.

"Where's Xiaohu? Did he also go to the martial arts training school? Adong cares about him very much." Shui Xi asked with concern.

"Little Tiger was too young and did not go to the martial arts training. He was sent to the Salesian Bureau to be raised by the government at the expense of the government. The orphans there have food and clothing. They may be adopted by the tribe or a childless couple in the future."

Unconsciously, the donkey cart has returned to Lihua Town.

The sun disappeared from the horizon, and the golden afterglow warmed the hearts of the two people.
