After cutting off Yu Yan's escape route, Yu Bing suggested, "How about this? I'll give everyone a solution. Yu Yan, sell those stamps and two new cotton clothes. The earnings should add up to 20 to 30 yuan. In the next two months, if you receive money from your family, return it to everyone. If you don't, see how much you can get at the end of the year. If it's not enough, sell your leather shoes. This way, it shouldn't be a problem for you to return everyone's money."
Everyone felt that this plan was good. Cotton clothes and leather shoes were all external items. Moreover, keeping two of the four cotton clothes was already better than many other people, who only had one cotton shirt to resist the cold.
Most of the people in the village ran around the fields all day long, so leather shoes were not useful for farm work at all. It was like expensive furnishing. If it really snowed, leather shoes wouldn't ward off the cold. Leather shoes just looked good.
