Gu Xin followed Gu Shouxin’s movements and danced wildly. Her movements were not standard, but she was sweating.

During this time, Gu Nian had also joined in. Gu Shouxin realized that his eldest daughter’s posture was quite standard. Not bad, practice more and she would not be easily bullied in the future. As for his youngest daughter, she was still young. She should be able to protect herself after practicing for four to five years.

“You three, hurry up and wash up. You’re sweating all over. Don’t catch a cold when the wind blows!” Cai Xiaolian didn’t like to move, so she went to boil hot water. Seeing that the others had stopped, she called for them to wipe their sweat.

“Xiaolian, Xin Xin and I will sort out the garden in a while and sow some seeds. You and Nian Nian will play with the spicy cabbage and radish you mentioned. I’ll give the egg whites a try at night and see if I can sell this cake in town tomorrow.” Gu Shouxin wiped his face with hot water. He washed his hands and spoke.

“Dad, get up early tomorrow morning and start cooking! It won’t take long to steam the cake. It just so happened that I got up. The breakfast was ready, and we can take it to town after it was steamed. It’s just that walking takes a lot of time. Should we borrow Grandpa and Grandma’s ox-cart?” Gu Nian asked.

Gu Shouxin thought about it and nodded. “We’ll borrow it for the next few days. If it sells well, we can buy one ourselves. It’ll be more convenient to travel in the future.”

“Dad, are we going to buy an ox?” Gu Xin couldn’t be bothered to wipe her face when she heard this. She turned around and asked, “I heard that an ox is very expensive. Can we make some money to pay off our debts before we buy it?”

“Okay, we’ll buy it after we make some money to pay off our debts. We’ll borrow Grandpa and Grandma’s ox-cart for the next few days.” Gu Shouxin nodded.

Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian: “…”

This was too much of pampering of his daughter!

He had money in his hands, yet he agreed to it just to make his daughter feel at ease?

“Dad, you’re too nice!” Gu Xin giggled.

The breakfast was steamed buns with radish meat from last night, along with a bowl of millet congee, and a cucumber sprinkled with chili.

Gu Shouxin had brought the millet home last night. He had also brought some red dates, goji berries, and brown sugar. Gu Nian had also put some in.

After breakfast, Gu Xin went to feed the chickens. She prepared the food, scooped some water, and put a jade bead in.

Her sister wanted to sell the cake, so the chickens at home had to lay more eggs every day.

After feeding the chickens and picking up the eggs in the circle, Gu Xin took a small hoe and went to tidy up the vegetable field with Gu Shouxin.

Meanwhile, Gu Nian and Cai Xiaolian were in the kitchen washing the cabbage and cutting the radishes.

The whole family worked together and settled the matter in the morning.

After lunch, Gu Shouxin asked Gu Xin what kind of vegetables she wanted to grow in the field. Their vegetable garden was only half an acre and was not very big. Gu Shouxin had already organized the vegetable plot into five plots.

There were only a few kinds of vegetables in the house. In the end, they planted radishes, cabbage, cucumbers, pumpkins, and chilies.

The chilies were Gu Nian’s request. They could sell them for money!

In the afternoon, Gu Shouxin and Gu Xin scattered the seeds. Gu Nian and Cai Xiaolian found a radish that had been cut and put it in the yard to dry.

Gu Xin had been hesitating in her heart. Should she pour a basin of foot-washing water or something?

But a basin of foot-washing water couldn’t water all the vegetables!

“Xin Xin’s Father, there’s no water in the water tank. Fetch some from the well!” Cai Xiaolian shouted in the kitchen.

Gu Xin’s eyes lit up. Yes, the well!
