Ali touched his money pouch, then went up and bought roast chicken and roast duck, and also cut half a pound of pig's head meat.
When they passed by the tavern, Ali bought half a catty of osmanthus wine, some peanuts, and half a catty of osmanthus cake.
Ah Li first took a small sip of osmanthus wine to taste it, and then hummed a little tune as she went back.
Back at the original owner's home, everything was quiet.
Ahri looked around and thought it was alright. It was a detached house with its own yard, but the area was not large, with only two rooms and a small kitchen.

The two men weren't exactly handsome, but they were pleasing to the eye in a way.
Just then, Ali came out of the kitchen and said in a menacing voice, "You still dare to drink water? Where's today's money?"
The two men seemed startled; one of them lost his grip on the bucket, causing it to tip over and roll onto the ground.
