Yu Yan replied that she would return home as soon as possible for the new year and hoped that her parents could send some more money over for travel expenses.
Yu Yan's new cotton clothes had been sold last time. Now, be it buying ready-made clothes or buying cotton to make them herself, she needed stamps.
However, Yu Yan didn't have any stamps now, so she asked her adoptive mother to send a new cotton shirt over with the excuse that she had donated the new cotton shirt she had received last year to a poor orphan.
Then, she asked about her adoptive brother's recovery and expressed her worries as sincerely as possible. After writing the letter, she stuffed it into the envelope and prepared to send it out when she went to town tomorrow.
The next day was New Year's Day, so many people in the village woke up early and went to town or county city.
Yu Bing and Jiang Chun chose to sleep in at home and woke up at ten o'clock.
