Lu Kang nodded and said, "I have already rented the donkey cart, but it may take some time for everyone tomorrow morning. We can only set off after I load my belongings into the cart."
When Qiao Da heard him say this, he waved his hand nonchalantly, thinking that it wouldn't delay anything in a short while.
Seeing that he didn't care, Lu Kang started to pack up his belongings.
He first asked the two children to pack their bags and pack the clothes they would wear on a daily basis.
He went to the kitchen and packed a cloth bag with the food they would need for the journey. However, he was troubled by the remaining half bag of food. Not only might it go bad if left at home for too long, but it would also be gone if the house was robbed.
Should I carry it and sell it? Or should I leave it with a neighbor first?
Qiao Da went into the kitchen to cook and saw him standing there motionless for a long time. When he got closer, he saw that he was staring blankly at a half-empty bag of food. "Are you worried about whether you should take the food with you?"
Lu Kang came back to his senses and said, "I won't take these grains with me. I'm thinking of selling them or storing them somewhere else!"
Qiao Da smiled and said, "If you are willing to sell it, then sell it to us. It will save you the trouble of going into the city."
They were going there to sell food anyway, so any more wouldn't be too much.
Lu Kang's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Okay, I'll go borrow the scale right away."
The transaction of the remaining grain was completed at a price that both parties were satisfied with, and Lu Kang received another five cents of silver!
As for the vegetables in the vegetable garden, Lu Kang told Qiao Da and his group to pick whatever they wanted.
They also prepared some things that could be kept for a long time, and for the rest they asked the neighbors around them, and if anyone needed them, they would go and get them themselves.
The next day, Lu Kang arrived outside the city gate before dawn. When the city gate opened, he met the coachman he had agreed to meet.
Driven by the donkey cart, the two soon reached home.
Lu Kang was worried about the bumpy road, so he put several quilts on the donkey cart, followed by his own books and daily clothes for several people.
Lu Kang asked his brothers and sisters to get in the car, and he locked the door. He then asked the clan leader Lu, who had come to see them off, to look after the house.
Chief Lu placed the prepared dry food on the donkey cart and patted the young man on the shoulder. "Don't worry about home, have a safe trip!"
After Lu Kang bowed and thanked them, he followed the team and walked away.
As for the remaining four chickens, their legs were tied and hung on the car frame. They would die when they rested at night!
