The next day, he got up bright and early.
The wood he hadn't split yesterday, now was the time for him to exert his strength.
Madam Rong always rose early, and as she came out to prepare food in the small kitchen, a glance revealed Qin Ye chopping wood.
Her eyes twitched involuntarily, "Qin, why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"Mother, I usually get up at this time when I'm at work, I'm used to it."
When he said this, it was Madam Rong's turn to be puzzled, "Your job... even the earliest is around 7 a.m., right? There's a need to go to work even earlier?"
She had heard that only teachers needed to be up that early, since they had to supervise the students who went to school for morning self-study.
But to go to the workplace this early?
"I usually get up early to exercise," Qin Ye explained.
On hearing this, Madam Rong heaved a sigh of relief.
She had thought his job required him to be up so early... that would be tiring, working all day long!
