Jiang Ci smiled, her eyes crinkling slightly. "We can also put the renovation of the interior walls of the house on the agenda."
The walls inside the house are now dark, ugly, and smelly. Since they couldn't buy white paint, Jiang Ci could only borrow newspapers from the radio station to cover them up, just to avoid seeing them and getting annoyed.
The stools in the house were all short; there wasn't a single tall stool. Luckily, Zhou Mingli had the foresight to get a table, otherwise the house would have been truly bare.
There are too many things that need to be replaced and purchased. The money left over from previous purchases, plus the money from selling snakes in Jiangci, only amount to a meager 300 yuan in savings. The future is uncertain, and they can't afford to spend it recklessly.
The meat at home was almost gone, so Zhou Mingli and Brother Yu went fishing again that evening. Jiang Ci took the two children to take a bath and then went out to look for cicada nymphs.

Jiang Ci hurried over and helped the person up.
Zhou Miao didn't feel any pain and said, "Mom, I don't feel any pain."
"Be careful when you walk, don't run." Jiang Ci patted her hand, checked her over again to make sure she had no scratches, and then gave her a warning.
Zhou Miao said crisply, "Miaomiao was watching where she was going and tripped over something hard."
Jiang Ci initially thought Zhou Miao had tripped over some pebbles, but upon closer inspection, she realized something was amiss.
That was clearly a corner of a box with sharp edges, mostly buried in the ground.
