She opened the quilt she was covering herself with and carefully covered Zeng Wangcai with it.
At this moment, Chen Yumei coughed slightly at the door.
Seeing that her son had been in Zhang Xiuzhi's room for a long time and had not come out, Chen Yumei was worried that he could not control himself, so she came to check.
"Auntie, he's asleep..." Zhang Xiuzhi came out and closed the door behind her. "He must have been very tired. He fell asleep on the bed."
"That won't do. He sleeps here, where are you going to sleep? I'll go call him..."
"Don't shout, let him sleep, it's okay for me to stay awake all night."
"Nonsense, how can you not sleep? Come with me."

The cigarette box was opened, revealing coins one by one.
"Laifu, what should we buy for our eldest brother's wedding?"
"Leather shoes, people wear leather shoes when they get married..."
"Don't be ridiculous. We have to skin each other to make leather shoes for Big Brother. You can't buy leather shoes with this little money."
