Li Mai thought for a moment and said, "Does Zhuzhu really like growing reeds?"
"Yes, Zhuzhu likes to feed the reeds and likes to take eggs from the reed beds," Zhuzhu said cutely.
"Oh, is that so? Then how about Mother and Aunt go and buy some more reeds for Zhuzhu to grow tomorrow?" Li Mai said with a smile.
"Okay, okay!" Zhuzhu said happily upon hearing this.
Li Mai smiled. Seeing Zhu Zhu happy made her happy too. Indeed, a child's smile is the purest thing in the world, capable of infecting everything in the world.
Zhuzhu was happy and went to play with Zhou Tao again. Li Mai went straight to the kitchen to find Zhao Shi, intending to help her cook and chat with her about getting rich.
After hearing this, Zhao looked at her daughter-in-law with bright eyes and said, "Okay, whatever you want to do, I will help you. As long as our lives can get better and we have money to treat Xiaoquan's leg, I'm willing to do anything."
Li Mai smiled and then mentioned that she wanted to go to town the next day to buy silver needle mushrooms and Luhua chickens.
When Zhao heard Li Mai say that she wanted to take Zhou Tao to town the next day, she nodded in agreement, "Okay, go ahead.

Lijia Village doesn't offer this service. In the past, when the original owner went to town, he would always bring a group of teenagers and carry baskets of herbs on his own.
However, she felt it was worth it to spend five coins to avoid walking for almost two hours.
After all, in the original owner's memory, each trip to town to sell herbs would waste almost a whole day.
Hearing her tone, Zhou assumed she thought it was too expensive, and said with a smile, "It's not expensive at all. It will save you energy, and you won't be so tired when you get back. It's alright, I'll pay for it."
Li Mai smiled and didn't refute her words, "Thank you, Mother!"
Let her spend it; anyway, she has ways to make Zhao's money chests fuller and fuller.
