After the meal, Jiang Ci picked up her bowl and chopsticks, stood up, and said to Zhou Mingli, "The production team is going to dig lotus roots and catch fish in the pond tomorrow. Don't forget about it."
Zhou Mingli agreed, "I'll play with you."
Jiang Ci ignored him. If he wanted to work, he could; she could even do less work.
"Catching fish is quite fun, do you want to come and try it?" Zhou Mingli subtly moved closer to her, turning his head to look at her profile as he asked.
Jiang Ci said, "I won't go. Tomorrow, I'll go up the mountain with Sister-in-law Yu to see if we can find some mushrooms and other wild vegetables."

Sister-in-law Yu nodded and urged them to leave, saying, "I know everything, stop nagging and go."
Zhou Mingli looked at Jiang Ci, his throat bobbing as if he wanted to say something, but Jiang Ci had already taken the two children and headed towards the mountain.
Zhou Mingli's words stuck in his throat, and his mood was even worse than the night before.
Jiang Ci and Sister-in-law Yu walked away. Sister-in-law Yu watched her two mischievous kids walk away with Zhou Miao and Zhou Yang, and asked Jiang Ci in a low voice, "You haven't spoken to the second son all day, what's wrong? Did you two have a fight?"
