Everyone else had a look of intense anticipation on their faces, they were itching to start digging up all the rat holes immediately!
However, Ma Xiulian waved her hand, saying: "I'm not going."
"Why not?"
The sons and daughters-in-law of the Chen family looked at her incredulously. Had their mother lost her senses? She knew that there was so much grain in the rat holes and still she didn't want to dig it out!
This was totally not like her!
With a serene expression, Ma Xiulian said: "The monkey didn't come tonight. Do you think you can find the rat holes on your own?"
Her sons were taken aback when they heard this. That's right! Without the monkey, they wouldn't be able to locate the rat holes!
Why did the monkey not show up tonight?!
Li Chunhua wouldn't give up. She said, "We can look for them on our own. What if we find them!"
She needed to feed her young son. If they had more grain, they would be able to eat well every meal.
