Wang Meng and Su Ningxiu were planning to open a shop but had not yet decided what kind of shop to open. Ningxiu mentioned that her younger sister, Su Yunjin, had many ideas and she wanted to discuss it with her.
It was best to also purchase a carriage when opening a shop. Wang Meng used to travel alone and did not need a carriage. Now that he had a wife, having a carriage would be much more convenient. He planned to go to the town to buy one. While Su Ningxiu went to Yunjin's house, Wang Meng headed to the town.
Intending to make a few more sets of clothes and shoes for her younger sister's unborn child, Su Ningxiu asked Wang Meng to bring back some satin, embroidery threads, cotton, and the like from the town.
