Chapter 393 I also want to go to my aunt's house
Ke Dasong shouted, and more than a dozen children immediately stood in a row obediently and called people one by one.
Su Tai counted them jokingly and said in an exaggerated manner, "Thirteen! Uncle, your family is really prosperous!"
"Hahaha," Ke Dasong said proudly, "We work hard all our lives just to have a prosperous family and add blessings and longevity! This year our family raised another thousand sheep, and next year we plan to buy more land and build houses to provide for my seven grandchildren."
Shen Yi was happy, “If this is the case, my uncle will have to work hard for another ten years.”
With Ke Dasong's current financial situation, buying land and building houses for his grandchildren should not be a problem, but he may fall back into poverty overnight.
Ke Dasong clenched his fist with great enthusiasm, "Not only that! We have to find wives for them, and prepare the dowry for our granddaughter. How much does it usually cost to marry off a girl or a daughter-in-law in your place now?"
Su Tai almost spit out the tea in her mouth, "Uncle! The children are so young, it's too early for you to ask these questions!"
Ke Dasong smiled awkwardly, stopped the topic, and turned to ask about Ke Yunyun.
Su Nizi immediately became concerned. She sent a dozen children to play in the backyard and chased Su Tai to ask, "I don't know how that girl is doing now. I always hear from your uncle and cousin. I'm worried that they only report good news and not bad news."
Su Tai shook her head, "That's impossible! Yunyun gave Tang Yu a daughter, and Tang Yu is now a minor official. There is also Shen Yi, the godfather, in the imperial capital. In addition, my godsister Xiaoxi is also capable and can take good care of them. If the eldest aunt is worried, she can follow the caravan to the imperial capital tomorrow to visit her cousin and see the world. It would be nice."
Su Nizi immediately refused in panic, "Why would I go to the imperial capital? No, no! Hearing you say this in person, I feel relieved. So, did Ah Cheng's biological father really not ask about it?"
Su Tai and Shen Yi exchanged glances and nodded slightly, "He is not in Zhaohua County. Besides, our two families have completely fallen out, so he doesn't have the nerve to ask us again."
Su Nizi's eyes turned red with anger, "I only have this precious daughter, and he ruined her!"
Su Tai couldn't help but comfort her, "Aunt, you can't say that. At least it was better for my cousin to follow Mr. Zhu under the circumstances. Even though Mr. Zhu abandoned them, my cousin didn't suffer much and found a good man again. We can rest assured."
It took Su Nizi a while to calm down.
Over there, Ke Dasong had already discussed opening a shop with Shen Yi.
After he finished speaking to them, Ke Dasong also made a decision.
"Mother, I was thinking about opening a grain store! We can get a lot of grain from Shen Yi, it's cheap and good quality, and there's also rice and glutinous rice that are only available in Longxia Country, which we can't find here. If we can't sell the grain, we can keep it for our own consumption, so it won't be wasted anyway."
Suniko thought about it for a while and agreed, "You have the final say, I don't care."
She is only responsible for taking care of the children's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating.
At dinner that night, the men brought up the topic again, but the women ignored them and continued talking about their own things.
Because of the bread and cakes, the children were particularly enthusiastic towards Su Tai, calling her "cousin" and "uncle" affectionately.
After half a day, Su Tai became friends with them.
The next day, I went horseback riding on the grassland with a few children.
I have to say that the grassland is vast. You can run however you want, but don't run too far, as it's easy to get lost.
She played this game all day long.
It was almost dark before I followed a group of children home.
Su Nizi was speechless, "How can a mother like you be so playful?"
Su Tai didn't care, "Aunt, can you ride a horse?"
Su Nizi was confused. "Why are we talking about horse riding? Why should I learn that?"
Su Tai shrugged and spread her hands. "I learned how to ride a horse today. The kids taught me. Isn't that amazing?"
Su Nizi laughed so hard that she fell backwards and shook her head, "Awesome, awesome! Our Xiao Tai is the best!"
Su Tai was so flattered that her tail almost stood up in the sky. She shared some of her roasted mutton with the children and said to Su Nizi Ke Dasong, "We have to set off early tomorrow morning."
"Ah? Aunt is leaving so soon?" Ke Zhengping's eldest son Ke Jiafu's face fell, his eyes full of reluctance, and he felt that the roasted lamb in his mouth no longer tasted good.
Su Tai rubbed his head vigorously, "Your uncle is busy! When autumn comes, your grandfather will go to your aunt's house. Let your grandfather take you there to play. The prerequisite is that you have to be able to endure hardships. This journey is not easy!"
"I'm not afraid! I can ride a horse!" Ke Jiafu raised his chin and said crisply.
The tsundere little look made the adults laugh.
Ke Zhengping cursed, "Where are you going? We are going to sell sheep, don't make trouble."
"No, no, I want to go. I want to go." Ke Jiafu ran to Ye Chunhua and acted like a spoiled child.
Ye Chunhua was helpless.
She turned around and pestered Su Nizi again, "Grandma, grandma, please let me go!"
Su Nizi hugged Ke Jiafu and tried to coax him, but it was of no use.
Ke Jiafu then set his sights on Ke Dasong.
Facing Ke Dasong, he obviously didn't dare to be so presumptuous. He stood properly and made his request, "Grandpa, I want to go with you to sell sheep."
"Don't you want to go to your aunt's house?" Ke Dasong looked as if he had seen through me.
Ke Jiafu laughed awkwardly, "That's not a conflict!"
Ke Dasong pondered for a moment and nodded slightly, "Take good care of the cattle and sheep in the next few months, and I'll take you there in the fall."
"Oh! Grandpa is the best! I love Grandpa the most!" Ke Jiafu jumped excitedly.
The other brothers and sisters were so envious that their eyes turned red.
They all clamored that they also wanted to take care of the cattle and sheep and to go find their aunt.
Ke Zhengping and Ke Zhengliang became furious immediately.
"Dad, you're not serious! We are going to do business. What would it look like if we brought a few kids with us?" Ke Zhengping frowned.
Ke Dasong immediately glared at him, "Your father has been begging for a living since he was ten years old. It's not uncommon for me to drive a few sheep for a long distance. Now that you have too much good life, you are still being pretentious? You are causing a lot of trouble!"
The two brothers were scolded so badly that they dared not object anymore.
Shen Yi wanted to laugh, but he managed to hold it back.
The next morning, the couple said goodbye to the Ke family and set off quickly in a carriage.
Outside the town is another grassland.
Su Tai took out the dry food that Sunizi had prepared for her. There were a lot of milk particles in it, like candy cubes. They were not very sweet, but they had a strong milky flavor. Chewing one when she was bored would make her feel more energetic.
She took one and stuffed it into Shen Yi’s mouth.
The two chatted idly, and vaguely saw a few wolves on the road, and a leopard hunting in the distance, which showed that they had already left the pastoral area.
The couple had to cheer up. It was impossible to spend the night in the wild in such an environment, so they had to find a place to stay.
