Although it's a bit tiring, Zhang Yu wouldn't dare let the two children stay in the siheyuan; they might not treat them harshly, but what if they led them astray?
"Okay." Zhao Lei used to frequent the siheyuan and could find many books there. Usually, as long as he sneaked a peek, no one would notice.
If he read at home and got caught, it would be another argument. It's better to read at the recycling station.
Zhao Hong thought it was great being here; she could casually flip through comic books and play with other kids, bringing her nothing but joy.
Carpenter Gao knew Zhang Yu and the others were anxious to return, so he quickly finished making a big bed. As for upstairs, since it was all floorboards, they could just lie directly on it.
Once Zhang Yu knew the bed downstairs was ready, she promptly and efficiently brought the two children back.
Zhang Yu returned just after dinner; everyone was either at the sink washing dishes or in the courtyard chatting and cooling off.
