When Song Ziwu saw the big, strong black bull, his eyes lit up immediately: "Yunran, what do you think of that bull?"

As soon as the shopkeeper saw a customer coming, he walked up to greet him.

"Sir, you have good taste. This cow is the best here. I am not exaggerating. Look at this cow. Its four hooves are round and big. Most importantly, they are all the same size. It is absolutely stable when walking. It is also first-rate for pulling goods. And you can see how strong this cow is. It is much bigger than ordinary cows, so its strength must be much greater than that of ordinary cows."

Song Yunran really didn't understand anything, but after hearing what others said, it seemed to be true.

But what she admired most was his eloquence. If he were in modern times, he would definitely be a sales champion.

"Uncle, I won't even look at this. You decide. I'll pay the money."

"Brother, how much do you want to sell this cow?"

Song Ziwu also thought that the cow was good, so he asked about the price.

"This is a good cow, it costs twenty-five taels!"

"It's so expensive! Yunran, why don't we go look for something else?"

Twenty-five taels! That’s twice as much as other cows! Other cows are at most ten to twenty taels. If you buy other cows, you can buy two.

"Okay, I don't understand these things anyway, so just let your uncle make the decision."

Song Yunran also felt it was expensive, but it was still within her acceptable range.

"Hey.....Brother, we can talk about the price slowly, but there aren't many good cows left. Let's talk about it later!"

When the shopkeeper saw that the man was about to leave, he immediately grabbed Song Ziwu's arm and asked him to stay and discuss it further. After all, business was bad now, and every penny earned was a penny earned. If the fish could not be sold, they would have to spend more time to feed them.

Song Yunran also saw that the other party really wanted to sell it, so he said, "How about this! Uncle, my base price is twenty taels. If you think this price is okay, just hand over the money and the goods. If you don't accept it, we don't need to waste time arguing."

"Well... OK! I'm happy for once."

The shopkeeper agreed immediately with a wave of his hand, and then went to untie the rope of the cow, lead the cow out and hand it to Song Ziwu.

After paying the money, the two of them pulled the ox away. Originally, Song Yunran was planning to buy a cart, but Song Ziwu wouldn't let her, insisting that he would go home and make one for her that would definitely be no worse than the ones in town.

Looking at his uncle's insistent face, Song Yunran could only compromise and follow him home to make the ox cart himself.

Song Yunran and her uncle happily pulled the cow back to the village and saw a group of people gathered at the gate of the Bai family, with bursts of noise coming from time to time.

Before they even reached the door of the Bai family's house, they heard the sarcastic voice of Old Lady Bai: "This is Cuihong, the new daughter-in-law I found for Dashou. Thank you all for coming in today. Come in and have a cup of tea, and let's get to know each other. We'll all be family from now on."

Although there was no big banquet, the woman was wearing a brand new bright red dress, with a silver hairpin in her hair and a pair of silver bracelets on her hands. She looked quite wealthy. There was also a fat boy following her. He looked a little older than her, but he was really ugly, with a fat head and big ears. His eyes were almost squeezed into a line by the fat on his face, and he had a flat nose and a big mouth. Just looking at him made Song Yunran feel sick.

Upon closer inspection, one could see that all the patriarchs of the Bai family had arrived. Cuihong was considered married after she offered tea to each of them. She was then talked to by a bunch of maids and aunts, and she covered her mouth with her hands and smiled from time to time. If one didn't know, one would think that this was the first time that the eldest daughter got married, and they didn't even look at who the son next to her was.

There were several groups of people outside the Bai family's courtyard. They were all idle and gossipy women in the village. "Not bad! She's plump and beautiful, and she's definitely good at giving birth."

"Yes, it's definitely easier to give birth than the first one. Look at that butt, it's as big as a bamboo basket!"

"If I get pregnant this time, it will definitely be a son"

"I think so too. Her first child was also a son. She is definitely not someone who cannot give birth to a son. If she still cannot give birth this time, it must be that Bai Dashou's fault."

"Look at the hairpin on her head and the bracelet on her hand, they are so beautiful!"

......

When Shen saw two people passing by, she said sarcastically at the door: "Oh, my uncle has already married, but some people are still unrequited! But who would marry a man with three money-losing women? I think he will end up lonely forever."

When Song Ziwu heard Shen say that about his younger sister, he rolled up his sleeves and stormed over. Song Yunran, who was standing by, hurriedly stopped him.

"Uncle, let's go home. It stinks here, even stinkier than the place where we sold the cows. I'm about to vomit."

Song Yunran pulled the cow and dragged her uncle towards home.

My uncle, who was sulking, came home and started to help build the house. He swung the shovel so hard that he treated the soil as if it belonged to the Bai family.

Song Yunran looked at Mrs. Song who was chatting and laughing with Aunt Seven and the others, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. She wondered if her mother knew about this. What if she knew?

"Mom, I have something to tell you!" Aunt Qi and the others felt pressured when they saw Song Yunran with a serious face, so they found excuses and walked away.

Mrs. Song looked at her daughter and felt a little worried and scared: "Yunran, what happened?"

"Mom, Bai Dashou got married, did you know?"

In fact, she deliberately didn’t say “I know” because she was afraid that her three daughters would be sad.

"Then why didn't you say anything?"

"You are already so busy, it's not a big deal, what's there to say?"

"Mom, are you okay?"

Song Yunran's worried look made Song laugh, and she said with a smile: "What can happen to me, my child? I have already thought it through. The three of you are enough for me."

Seeing Song's calm expression, Song Yunran believed that she was really fine. She was originally worried that she would be sad, afraid that she would laugh on the surface but cry behind her back. After all, women of this era regard men as their heaven, and losing a man is like the sky falling. Now that she has moved on, it's good.

"Mom, don't worry! The three of us are both daughters and sons. You will have what others have, and even better than others."

"Does mom need you to comfort her when she's this old? Go and do your own thing. Mom is really fine, don't worry!"

Mrs. Song felt comforted when she saw her sensible daughter.

Song Yunran, who was a little worried at first, is now completely relieved. Thinking that it is a rare day off, she plans to make something delicious for everyone to change their taste.

Let's make some ginger and scallion shredded chicken. Most of the chickens in the village eat big insects and they run around all the time. The taste of the meat is really incomparable to those modern chickens. It tastes good even if it is boiled in hot water.

After thinking of the dishes, he asked Song Yunxi to buy chickens from some chicken-raising families in the village. Including the number of workers building the house, a total of ten chickens would be needed.
