“I know some.” Yang Mengchen nodded. “From now on, every evening after dinner, your entire family will come to my house, and I’ll teach you to read.”

The moment they heard this, their faces flushed with excitement and enthusiasm. Not only did Jiujiu know about herbal medicine, but she could also read, which was truly remarkable.

After looking through all the books in the bookstore without finding anything on military strategy, Yang Mengchen eventually bought some brushes, ink, and paper before leaving with the group.

“Brother Huzi, do you know where we can buy cows in town?” Yang Mengchen asked Zhou Pinghu. They needed to start cultivating five hundred acres of wasteland tomorrow, and the few cows owned by several households in the village would not suffice, let alone relying solely on human labor.

Zhou Pinghu shook his head. “Cows are very valuable, and all cattle must be registered at the Government Office. I heard from my father there are none in town—you’ll probably find some in the county city.”

Hearing this, Yang Mengchen felt somewhat disappointed. It looked like she would have to visit the county city when she had time. She would also ask Uncle Luo tomorrow if he could help buy a few cows.

After Yang Chengrong and his two brothers finished delivering the goods, the sun was already slanting to the west. The group rented an ox cart and hurried home.
