At this time, Qiao Rui also woke up. After resting for a few hours, he was in good condition. He sat next to He Xiasheng in high spirits and chatted with He Dagen about the recent situation in the village and the output of the fields.
Excluding Lu Lan who was in confinement after giving birth, there were 11 adults in the family, who basically filled up the empty seats around the round table.
