The next day, Dong Huiying went straight to the Daliu Village Dong Family, bringing several husbands from home to visit her parents, bringing many gifts for the visit.
Mother Dong claimed that after the New Year, she planned to take the fathers to enjoy mountain and river views, which Dong Huiying was very supportive of.
Even though she was inwardly anxious and couldn't wait to go to Qingfeng Balibao to inquire about Little Liu, at her parents' place, she held her patience, behaving as usual, delighting under her parents' knees, and the elders couldn't detect anything amiss.
"Oh, right!" As the husbands were about to leave, Father Dong called Dong Huiying back: "A while ago, Fei Yan (Mother Dong) went into the mountains and found this." Father Dong took out a small cloth bundle containing a snow-white fruit, its skin glistening like it was coated in silvery frost.
