Mu Yi'an knew that meat was always more expensive.
"How are the pigs? How long until they're ready for market? Tomorrow, let's take a walk around the farm; the rice harvest will be almost here too."
After Mu Yi'an finished reviewing the ledgers, Manager Li left.
"Second sister-in-law, I'm going to the clinic in a bit. I'll take the clothes I made for Doctor Chu and An Ran to them."
“Alright, go ahead. Take Yunduo with you. After we visit the estate tomorrow, we’ll go to the brokerage firm and buy you two servants.”
Mu Yi'an had asked Wei San, and he said he didn't want to be separated from his daughter. Mu Yi'an didn't have a penchant for separating people from their families; he could just buy two more.

"Second sister-in-law, I'll listen to you."
Jiang Qi just didn't want her second sister-in-law to spend any more money; she had already done enough for her.
At this time, Jiang Qi was unaware that her second sister-in-law had prepared a dowry of nearly five hundred taels of silver for her.
Jiang Qi took Wei Yunduo out, and Mu Yi'an started writing and drawing again, writing down the things to be done next to prevent forgetting anything.
