"New dishes?" This surprised the manager. "What kind of dishes can't be tried at our restaurant?"
"Your restaurant is indeed high-end and classy, with everything you could want, but I really can't try this new dish here. You'll understand when you come to my house later."
Yang Cui first kept everyone in suspense.
"Okay, I'll definitely go at noon on the first day of the lunar new year."

Zhou Daniu drove Yang Cui to her doorstep in his mule cart. Yang Cui gave him eight copper coins for the fare. On the return trip, Zhou Daniu only took Yang Cui and Wen Shi. Yang Cui had a lot of things, and the mule cart couldn't carry anyone else, so the fare was much higher.

Wen felt a pang of regret over the cost of the shoes and cloth, so she pulled Yang Cui aside and said, "Xiaocui, are you stupid? He's not even her biological son. Why are you buying him shoes and clothes? We've already done more than enough by feeding him every day. Don't be foolish."
