The two of them were already sweating profusely when they reached the city gate.
Fortunately, Grandpa Liu made one round trip in the morning and another in the afternoon, and now he has arrived at the city gate and is waiting for the villagers.
"Children, why are you only just getting back?"
Shen Danru looked up and saw the aunt she had taken the oxcart to town with that morning. She couldn't tell which family she was from, but she knew to call her "auntie" when she saw her.
