Traveling is done on foot, and delivering messages is done by shouting.
The jokes I made in my past life have come true here.
"Sister, would you like to stay for lunch? I'll have the kitchen cook some sausages and cured meat."
Faced with Su Nan's eager gaze, Miss Jiang nodded, "You rarely get a few days off, let's get together."
