He felt that it would be most appropriate for his sister-in-law to live in a home like Master Wan's.
Seeing him standing there in a daze, Wan Qiqi continued, "Weren't you going to fetch water? Hurry back and fill the vat so everyone can take a bath tonight."
Since coming here, she has realized how blissful it was to wash up before.
Hot water available at any time, washing machines for laundry, and hair dryers for drying hair... these are things we can only dream of now.
Chen Yongxing's face fell, and he looked somewhat desperate.
To fill the vat, he would have to make at least four or five trips back and forth.
Several miles of mountain road, going back and forth, this would surely kill him!

When they arrived at Yang Mu's house, they found that his courtyard gate was tightly closed. They knocked for a long time, but no one came out.
"Yongnian's wife, are you looking for Engineer Yang? He's cutting bamboo in the bamboo grove east of the village!"
Wan Qiqi turned around and saw that it was Aunt Fengxian. She smiled and replied, "Okay, thank you!" Then she was about to leave.
"Hey, Yongnian's wife," Aunt Fengxian asked tentatively, "I heard from the village head's son that you're buying pomelos for 3 coins each?"
"Yes, but they need to be big, of good quality, and heavy." Wan Qiqi smiled after saying that and turned to walk into the bamboo forest.
