The bricklayers started working on the interior work, and a few people were also sent out to help build chicken coops and rabbit burrows for Zhou's family. They planned to finish the work in five days.
Then, everyone rested for two days, and on the fifth day of the ninth lunar month, all the other hired bricklayers arrived. At that time, everyone worked together to build houses for the villagers.
The villagers were even more motivated when they heard that they were hauling stones and sand, and they were about to start building their houses.
In the past few days, Li Mai and his colleagues in charge of logistics have not only prepared meals for everyone, but also asked the women in each household to make cotton-padded clothes and shoes for the children when it was not their turn to cook.
She started distributing the cloth and cotton supplies from the warehouse to each household.
If it's not enough, we'll buy more to make up for it and distribute it among the families.

In late August, on the 23rd, Li Mai once again took Zhou Quan and the others to town to hand in the three designs for September, saying that she might not be able to come recently because she would be very busy.
She drew all these pictures at night in her tent.
Mrs. Fisherman understood that she had been busy lately. As long as the designs were delivered to her on time, she could take care of the rest.
She asked Li Mai when he could accompany her on a trip.
Li Mai thought for a moment and said it would be at least the end of September or the beginning of October.
After thinking about it, Mrs. Fisherman agreed, and the two of them arranged to go out in early October.
At least things were stable at home then, and she wasn't worried anymore.
