"Grab the oxen, we can sell them to get money for Ming'er." Chen Huayun ordered her daughter-in-law.
Liu Hua nodded, and they went inside the barn, expecting to see ropes around the oxen's neck so that they could lead them out of the barn easily.
Alas, the Xiao family didn't actually tie these oxen with ropes. Aren't they afraid these huge oxen will run away? Look at that meat, they definitely worth more than twenty-five taels of silver!
Greed flashed in Liu Hua's eyes, but it didn't completely cloud her judgement yet.
"Mother, there are no ropes. How do we take the oxen home?" She turned to Chen Huayun with doubt.
Chen Huayun cleared her throat, her eyes shifted slightly as she tried to remain composed. The oxen were gradually walking toward them…
"Just grab them!" She paused briefly. "Grab anything, their heads or their ears!"
Liu Hua looked scared, and the moment one ox walked closer to her, she subconsciously took a step back.
