If she makes more and sells it, she can help her daughter pay off some of the debt.
Ye Panjiu advised, "Mother, this light is not bright enough and it's too hard on your eyes. Don't sew it up."
"Okay, I'll stop sewing after I finish this part." Grandma Ye agreed readily, but her hands didn't stop working.
Ye Panjiu sighed softly. Only if she could earn money quickly could she stop her family from working so hard.
In a short while, the batch of charcoal that had been burned was almost gone, and Ye Panjiu sprinkled water to extinguish the fire.
Thick smoke billowed out, stinging her eyes.
Ye Panjiu frowned and waited for the smoke to dissipate before going forward to examine the charcoal.

Even the usually taciturn Ye Daniu stepped forward, saying, "Second sister-in-law, blame us if you want, but don't talk to my little sister like that."
