Yu Yin had made thorough preparations beforehand, even taking into account the inconvenience the young man might have when going to the toilet.

There are no toilets with Western-style seats now; you can only sit down to use the toilet—it's all squat toilets. But the young man has a broken leg, so squatting isn't convenient for him. Yu Yin remembered a video she'd seen: cut a hole in the middle of a chair, smooth out the splinters, and you can use it as a toilet.

Yu Yin's family didn't have that kind of wooden chair, so she went to the village to find an old man and asked him to make one out of bamboo. The two of them gestured for a long time before finally figuring it out, and Yu Yin breathed a sigh of relief.

During her lunch break, Yu Yin went to the village. The old man's craftsmanship was truly excellent. The bamboo chair was flat and sturdy, looking very stable. The round opening in the middle was handled perfectly, just the right size, so you wouldn't fall off when you sat on it. Moreover, the old man had polished it, making it very smooth.

"sharp!"

Yu Yin gave the old man a thumbs up, which made him smile from ear to ear!

Yu Yin carried the makeshift toilet home. In the yard, Yu Kang was playing games with his four little ones, shouting and yelling. Their voices could be heard from a distance, especially An An, who, despite being small, had a loud voice.

"Yinyin's back. What did she bring?"

Brother Yu lay on the recliner, looking relaxed and enjoying himself.

"I had someone make a chair for you to use when you go to the toilet."

Yu Yin showed him the chair. Lu Shurui also came out of the kitchen and saw the bamboo chair that Yu Yin had brought back. It looked strange and had a hole in the middle.

"What's this for? And why is there a hole in it?"

Before Yu Yin could answer, several little kids ran over.

An'an was even more mischievous. In a flash, she crawled under the chair, poked her head out of the round hole, and looked at Yu Yin with a happy smile.

Yu Yin was dumbfounded. What kind of operation was this? How did he manage to crawl in like that? This child is like a monkey, never behaving himself.

Yu Yin rubbed her head; her head was throbbing!

"Second sister, what is this? It's so strange. It looks like a chair, but it doesn't seem like we can sit on it?"

"Auntie, is this a toy?"

"That looks fun, I'll go in too."

Several little ones excitedly gathered around, all wanting to squeeze inside and try it out.

"Come out, everyone. This isn't a toy; it's for your uncle."

Yu Yin pulled out a few little brats; they'd be fighting over scraps later.

"Lu Shurui, put him in the toilet later. Little brother, when you need to use the toilet in the future, just put him on the squat toilet and sit on it to avoid injuring your legs."

"Oh, this is for using the toilet! An'an, you just crawled out of the toilet bowl, you're so dirty!"

Chu Yang acted all cocky, like a know-it-all, which made An An yell twice.

"It's not dirty, An'an isn't dirty!"

"Yu Kang, take them over there to play. They're making so much noise it's giving me a headache."

"Let's go, let's capture the next high ground, charge!"

With a clatter, the little rascals finally ran off, and the world was finally at peace.

"Yinyin is so thoughtful. You're so lucky, little brother. Thank you, Yinyin and Xiao Lu."

"Dude, you're something else."

Yu Yin was very happy to be able to do something for her brother. He had always been the one protecting her, and now she could hold an umbrella for him.

"Hey buddy, do you need to go to the restroom right now? I'll help you there."

"I have to say, I really want to go."

Watching the backs of the young man and Lu Shurui, Yu Yin felt a warmth in her heart. These were the two most important men in her life. She was so happy that they got along so well!

Before the deliveryman could even share his experience, Yu Yin was busy going to work.

After emptying his bowels, Yu Jun felt much better. Eating too well and not being able to defecate in time was very painful. Now it's great, he can squat on the toilet comfortably by himself without anyone's help. It's so refreshing!

The toilet in Yu Yin's house was renovated by someone she hired. The squat toilet was dug at an angle, made of bricks, and then plastered with cement. After using the toilet, a flush with water would wash away the excrement into a large latrine dug outside.

After rinsing himself with water, Yu Jun placed the gourd ladle in the water vat beside him and came out leaning on his cane.

"Hey bro, is it easy to use?"

Lu Shurui didn't go far, fearing something might happen, and was waiting nearby.

Although Yu Jun felt that the man surnamed Lu was not good enough for his sister, the die was cast, and he couldn't say much. After observing him for the past two days, he thought the guy was alright; although he wasn't strong, he was quite considerate. Most importantly, he could cook, do housework, and wasn't averse to taking care of children—things most men couldn't do, including himself, who couldn't cook either.

Thinking back to before, Yu Yin was busy with housework and taking care of Yu Kang, always running around like a headless chicken, and there was very little she could help with. Now, things are much better. With help from others, the two of them are working hard together, and their little family is doing quite well. As for Lu Shurui being a sent-down youth and possibly returning to the city in the future, that's a matter for the future. Living well in the present is more important than anything else. If that day ever comes, Yu Yin still has herself to worry about.

Yu Jun returned to the recliner, and Yu Kang placed the washed fruit next to the young man, telling him to eat it; it was freshly picked and very sweet.

Watching Yu Kang run away, Yu Jun was still very gratified. At least the kid had a conscience, and his second sister hadn't spoiled him for nothing, taking care of his bodily needs.

In the past few days, Yu Jun has felt less uncomfortable. His chest doesn't feel as tight, unlike before when even breathing hurt.

Unbeknownst to Yu Jun, since his return, Yu Yin had been using spiritual spring water for cooking and boiling water. She had been very careful, avoiding everyone, and had changed all the water in the house.

The effects will be more noticeable at first, but gradually they will become subtle and gradual.

Besides, the food these past few days has been really good. They've eaten several chickens, and there's also an old duck, which Yu Yin traded with the villagers for. They've been cooking delicious food non-stop, with soups and stews constantly being served. Yu Yin even feels that the little ones have gained weight.

In any case, everything went smoothly, and even Yu's mother didn't cause any trouble. She visited Yu Jun twice, both times arriving just as Yu Yin was going to work, and brought a lot of nutritional supplements. Seeing that Yu Jun was in good spirits, she didn't say anything.

Yu's father often came over, firstly to check on Yu Jun's recovery, and secondly to improve their meals. Sometimes he would bring some pork or other food; the farm canteen had good food, so he would bring some as well. The kids really liked their grandfather.

Time passed at a leisurely pace, and not long before the New Year, Yu Yin had already prepared her New Year's gifts.

I called Wang Wenye and Su Yixian to my house and told them to take it and send it back as soon as possible, there was still time.

"Sister-in-law, there are even more this year than last year! That's amazing!"

"I met some new friends while supporting agriculture. They were from other ethnic minority villages, and we exchanged some different things."

"Alright, take it all and send it back quickly. I've labeled any unfamiliar food items so you can easily tell what's going on. I prepared it according to your money and coupons; there's nothing left."

Yu Yin prefers to keep clear accounts with her brothers to avoid future troubles.

"That's right, we know how good your work is, and the things you buy are definitely worth more than the price!"

Qian Weiguo's words are truly sweet; he was born in the wrong era. If he were born in later generations, he would definitely be a comedian.

Everyone was happy, and they dispersed with their belongings. Yu Jun looked at Yu Yin and felt a little relieved.
