As the first light of dawn barely touched the sky, the diligent families of Lihua Village were already preparing their dry food, getting ready to go up to East Mountain to pick chestnuts. Even if they had been busy on the mountain the entire previous afternoon, they didn't see it as much of an issue. What's the harm in being a bit tired?
Although they were somewhat weary, at least they would have food!
When Nanzhi went to Ms. Liu's house to borrow the Donkey Cart, she just so happened to run into her family, who were well-prepared and about to head out.
Seeing Nanzhi and Gougou dressed in tattered clothes today, Ms. Liu was taken aback for a moment. It was normal for everyone to wear old clothes while working, but were their clothes today not a bit too worn out?
Looking at the patches over patches, it was almost comparable to a "hundred-patch robe."
After a moment's thought, she couldn't help but ask, "Girl, why are you wearing these clothes today?"
