…
The next day, Zhao Li took the squid strips that had not been sold yesterday and called the military wives to go to the market together.
Hearing that no one wanted to go to the market, Zhao Li was puzzled: "Why not go? Are you giving up after just one day?"
Military wives all said they wanted to stay home and take care of their husbands and children.
Zhao Li asked Ding Peizhi: "Sister Ding, why don't you go out? You sold well yesterday."
Ding Peizhi said: "I have two children at home, and if I don't take care of them, they will die.
The temperature will drop in a while. Going out will freeze you into popsicles. Let's buy more food and coal briquettes and stay at home for the winter."
Zheng Baozhu asked: "What is the lowest temperature on the island?"
Ding Peizhi said: "The lowest temperature was minus 30 degrees Celsius. You don't grow vegetables at home, so you should buy more to store."

Over the weekend, Song Zhiting bought a lot of food, including cabbage, radishes, potatoes, and 300 coal briquettes, so that Zheng Baozhu didn't have to buy more.
After preparing lunch at noon, Zheng Baozhu waited for Song Sicheng to come back from school.
It's been more than 10 minutes and the child hasn't come back yet.
Zheng Baozhu went outside and waited.
Not far away, Qiu Xiaoqiang and Qiu Xiaozhuang were seen leading Song Sicheng back.
There were bruises on Song Sicheng's face and a cut at the corner of his mouth.
Zheng Baozhu quickly asked: "What happened?"
Song Sicheng looked up at Zheng Baozhu, then lowered his head guiltily.
Qiu Xiaoqiang said for him: "Sicheng was bullied at school."
