"My grandma made some glutinous rice cakes and asked me to bring some to you."
This is a delicacy from her grandmother's hometown. The steamed glutinous rice is put into a stone ladle and beaten hard with a thick round wooden stick. After it is done, it can be kept for a long time and is delicious when fried, stir-fried, deep-fried or baked.

"There's a big fair at the next brigade the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go?"

"And I forgot to tell you, Ah Ci, my family is slaughtering the New Year pig tomorrow. You and Qingfeng, remember to come to my house for the pig-slaughtering dinner. Grandma said that your family didn't feed the pigs this year, so she'll leave you half a pig. Remember to push the wheelbarrow and go, otherwise you'll have to carry it back by yourselves."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away in a hurry.
