บท 103: Chapter 102: Someone's Coming (4 updates)

The children weren't entirely clueless; they saw that several new sheds had been built alongside the house, all filled with firewood. They understood that Xie Zhinuan's supply of firewood was really quite substantial.

Xie Zhinuan thought carefully, "Sure, small fish and shrimp. Once the rice harvest is over, you can also go catch loaches and eels in the fields. I'll pay you for those too!"

The mute boy looked at Xie Zhinuan, and a smile suddenly brightened his originally pale face, filling his eyes of despair with hope.

Catching loaches and eels was something he and his brothers were quite skilled at.

However, although loaches and eels were meaty, there wasn't much meat on them, and they didn't taste good when cooked due to their strong fishy smell.

He knew where to find crabs better...

And he could proudly bring his younger brothers and sisters to meet Sister Zhinuan, letting her see them.
