Halfway through the journey, Yangyang wanted to ride a horse, but considering his young age, Ye Zi'an had no choice but to ride with him.
"When you're a bit older, Dad will let you keep one," he said to Yangyang.
"Why do I have to be older to have one?" Yangyang asked loudly. "If I start raising it now, by the time I grow up, the foal will be grown too, and then won't I be able to ride it just fine?"
"Hmm, you make a good point," Ye Zi'an responded, looking at the top of his head. After a pause, he added, "But Dad's approval isn't enough, your Mom has to agree too."
"Ah? Why is that?"
"Of course, because Mom is in charge of all the family's money," laughed Ye Zi'an. "If you want to buy a foal, you have to ask your Mom for the money. Dad doesn't have any to help you buy a foal."
