Li Xing'an furrowed his brow, hesitating whether to agree to let Mu Yuanxiu run an errand.
Mu Yuanxiu continued, "You don't even know where to buy wine and dishes. Wandering around blindly would only waste time! You might as well let me find them for you. I guarantee I'll bring them back for you."
Li Xing'an looked at him for a moment, then nodded as if driven by some invisible force, saying, "Alright, I'll trust you this time."
He tossed the money pouch to Mu Yuanxiu, "Here are five taels of silver; use it all." After a moment's thought, he added, "If you fail to handle this affair properly, then our family won't repay the money we owe you."
Mu Yuanxiu's mouth twitched, "Don't worry, Third Brother Li. For those three hundred taels of silver, I'll definitely buy the wine and dishes properly."
He jumped off the mule's back, came over, and patted Li Xing'an's horse.
Li Xing'an glanced at him and also dismounted.
The two exchanged mounts.
