“There are a lot of goods that will be transported in the future, so we need a means of transportation.” Su Xiaoxiao said. 

“You mean the ox cart?” Liu Ping asked. 

-Ox cart

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head, “The ox cart is too slow.” 

Before delivering two deliveries, the sky would be dark already.   

Liu Ping worked as a laborer and had seen quite a few types of vehicles.

He pondered and said, “The faster ones are donkey cart and mule cart, there is also horse carriage. But the horse carriage will be too expensive.” 

-Horse carriage

Su Xiaoxiao also didn’t consider the carriage for the time being. 

She counted the medical fees she had earned in her hand, and although there was a seemingly considerable amount of silver, she didn’t know much about the price of a horse.

A medium-sized southwestern horse could be sold for between 70 to 80 taels. 

Just one horse alone could already empty her purse, not to mention the cart. 

“I can make the cart.” Liu Ping scratched his head, “I used to work as a carpenter for a few years before.” 

Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, she really picked up a treasure, didn’t she? 

Liu Ping said again, “Today, on the tenth day of the lunar month, the pier opened early, and there is a horse market. Should I go and inquire about it?” 

Su Xiaoxiao was surprised and said, “Is there a pier in our town?” 

Liu Ping said, “It’s in the next town, it belongs to the official post station, and is adjacent to our town. It’s not too far away by just walking along the main road. If you’re fast, you will be able to get there in over an hour.” 

The official post station, no wonder the market opened early. 

Strictly speaking, the post station was not closed, and there were also officials and soldiers on duty on New Year’s Eve, just in case a military emergency or dangerous situation happened. 

Su Xiaoxiao said, “I will go with you.” 

She has nothing to do at home anyway, might as well go to the ancient horse market to take a look. 

“Mom!” 

The three little ones came running over with a clattering sound. 

During these days, Su Xiaoxiao had been at home, and the three little ones had gotten used to her company, sticking to her more and more, practically unable to leave her even for a moment. 

“Dahu wants to go.” 

“Erhu also wants to go.” 

“And also Xiaofu (hu).” 

Facing these three little guys who always acted coquettishly and cutely at every turn, Su Xiaoxiao used her hard-hearted skills that she had cultivated in her previous life. 

“It’s going to be a very long, long walk.” She tried to scare them off. 

Xiaohu stretched out his little hand and said seriously, “Not afraid, can gu (go), Xiaofu (hu) can gu (go).” 

*TN : Xiaohu still can’t speak fluently. 

Su Xiaoxiao chuckled, ‘okay okay, you gu, you can gu!” 

Mrs. Wu reminded her husband, “Go find Uncle Li to borrow the ox cart.” 

Liu Ping glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and responded, “Eh, okay! I will go now!” 

As soon as Old Li Tou heard that it was Su Xiaoxiao who wanted to go to the town, he pulled out his own ox cart without saying a word. 

 When Liu Ping wanted to pay, Old Li Tou gave him a glare and said, “What are you doing? Daya is the one who uses my ox cart, how can you give me money!” 

Liu Ping smiled embarrassedly and pulled the ox cart away. 

“Jie!* I’m going too!” Su Ergou said. 

*Jie (姐) : older sister 

Su Xiaoxiao’s little chubby hand waved, “Fine, let’s all get on the ox cart!” 

Mrs. Wu didn’t go to the town, she stayed behind to pickle salted eggs. 

The whole family walked out majestically. 

Su Xiaoxiao walked, she wanted to lose weight. 

The villagers didn’t feel too surprised as they watched Liu Ping drive Old Li Tou’s ox cart and went out with the people of the Su family.  

Liu Ping owed a debt to Su Pangya, which led the couple to sell themselves as slaves. This rumor had long been spread around the village. 

Along with this, there was also the news of Su Pangya delivering Mrs. Zhao’s baby on New Year’s Eve. 

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t go to the village to visit and gossip, otherwise she would know exactly how much of a sensation she had caused. 

It was fine if it was just a sudden change of temper, but she still even turned over a new leaf and started doing business. 

It was fine if she was just doing business, but she actually became a midwife in the village at such a young age! 

“What do you mean with midwife ah? Pangya not only knows how to deliver babies! Have you heard about Yuniang’s matter? She almost went to see King Yama after giving birth! And it was Su Pangya who brought her back from the hell gate!” 

“Is that true? You can’t be joking, right!” 

“If you don’t believe me, you can go by yourself and ask the Old Su family!” 

Someone actually really came there to ask.

People in the Old Su family didn’t really want to remember Su Pangya’s credits. 

But Su Yuniang was there, and she really admitted that it was Su Pangya who cured her. 

For a time, Su Pangya became famous in the village!
