"Okay, Mom! When the children come back, I'll let them know." Zhou Zhaodi replied, beaming with delight.
She knew that the arrival of the Li Family would cause some chaos, so she had sent off all the children, big and small, to gather firewood.
It was the cold winter season, and they needed to stoke the heating stove, so getting rid of the broken twigs and branches was necessary!
With everything sorted out, Ma Xiulian headed home with the two little ones.
Helian Qiao, holding onto Gu Tingyun, hopped and skipped as they walked. Suddenly, she stopped and excitedly announced, "It's going to snow tonight!"
Brightening at the news, Ma Xiulian felt happy—after the snow, the wheat would grow well!
If the harvest turned out well, the amount of grain distributed to each family would be more!
However, if the snow was too heavy, she would have to harvest the cabbages from the field in advance and store them in a cellar to prevent them from freezing.
