Chapter 114: Chapter 114: Going to the Town "Xiaxia, Xiaxia, wake up." The next day, Yang Chuxia was still asleep, and Ms. Wang woke her up. Yang Chuxia opened her eyes, suddenly remembering that she was going to town later, so she got up in a hurry. By the time she finished washing up, Ms. Wang had already cooked the golden egg pancakes. They were quite fragrant with an egg spread on top. "Sister, you got up late." Yang Chuxia saw that the boy Yang Qingrui had already grabbed a pancake and started eating. "What’s the point of getting up so early since there’s nothing special today?" Anyway, her plan was to go to the beach to pick up seashells tomorrow. "Daughter, I’ll go to town with you later." Dachuan didn’t carry a load today. He had already gone to the field early in the morning and had finished his morning chores. He wanted to go to town with his daughter to buy things because, even though she was quite capable, she was still a girl and needed to be looked after. "Okay, dad. But let’s not borrow Grandpa’s ox-cart today. It’s embarrassing to borrow it all the time." Recently, her family had been using Land Officer Yang’s ox-cart a lot, but it wasn’t like a modern car where they could simply add more fuel to compensate. Ox-carts required only grass, but there was always plenty of grass. Land Officer Yang and his family were nice and didn’t complain when they borrowed the cart; however, she still felt a bit embarrassed about it. "Alright, then let’s wait for the ox-cart at the village entrance." "Dad, I want to go to town too." Yang Qingtong looked up and said obediently. Dachuan thought for a moment and figured since there wasn’t much going on today, it wouldn’t hurt to let Qingtong go too. He nodded, "Alright, we’ll take you too. Are you going, Qingrui?" "Dad, I won’t go. I’ll stay home and learn to read with Brother Zi’an." Yang Qingrui shook his head. These days, Brother An had been staying at their home, and whenever he had spare time, Qingrui would learn to read with him. By now, he had already learned quite a lot. "I’m not going either. I’m going to learn how to read with Brother Zi’an too." It made sense for Yang Qingrui not to go, but what was Yang Xiayun talking about? She wanted to learn how to read too? Yang Chuxia didn’t object to her learning how to read, but she felt that this little girl just liked to eat, drink, and play and wouldn’t sit quietly to read. "Pfft..." Yang Qingrui laughed. "Sis, you better take her with you. What does she know about reading? She just messes with Brother Zi’an’s ink and paper, wasting it all, and we can’t even read what she writes." "Brother, what nonsense! I drew a big flower cat, a big flower cat, meow meow..." she even made a funny face as she spoke. Yang Qingrui was speechless. That was a flower cat? It didn’t even look like a wild boar! "Alright, alright, you guys should get going to town if you’re going. I still need to cook when you get back, and it’s getting late." Ms. Wang saw that it was already late and her family members were still joking around, so she urged them along. "Yeah, it’s really late. Let’s go, dad." Yang Chuxia looked at the sky, and it was indeed getting late. She picked up a pancake and walked out, calling for Yang Qingtong to come with her. When they were waiting at the village entrance, they ran into Uncle Old Gen. Seeing the Yang family members, he asked, "Are you going to town?" "Yeah, heading to town to buy some stuff." "Oh, you should hurry then, it’s getting late." "Uncle Old Gen, please come over to my house for lunch with Aunt-in-law Gen later, and bring Fourth Grandpa too." Yang Chuxia kindly invited Uncle Old Gen, who was actually one of the elders in the Yang family.
