"Dad, let's wait until my eldest brother and the others come back before we go. There's no rush for firewood. My kitchen is already piled high with firewood."
"If you really use that charcoal, you'll use it up without noticing. It's always good to have some on hand. The weather's been nice lately, but it won't be so convenient if it rains or snows. By the way, what exactly was that thing you were talking about yesterday? What do you want to see?"
