The little donkey was only about the size of a small adult dog. It nestled against its mother, looking quite pitiful. Tan You had always had a soft spot for young animals. A wave of compassion washed over her, and just like that, the Old Chen household gained two mounts.
Of course, one of them was still a foal. It would probably be another year or two before it could be put to work. Tan You wasn't in a hurry. 'Raising this many kids is still raising, and raising a little donkey is still raising. What's one more?'
Tan You sighed and patted the little donkey's head. "From now on, you'll be Little Jujube, and your mother will be Dazao."
Including the cart, it cost Tan You a full fifteen taels of silver. If the mother donkey hadn't been weakened by just giving birth, she would have never been able to buy them for such a low price.
Leaving the horse market, only the youngest, Chen Xing, was sitting on the cart, holding the little donkey. The other four were all walking.
