Bai Xue was at home calculating the money in her elder daughter's hands. Seeing her husband return not long after leaving and looking rather displeased, she would have usually asked him about it immediately. However, considering her husband's dissatisfaction with her over the past few days, she suppressed the questions in her mind and began talking about family matters and the items to be taken away.
Ye He Ping was feeling annoyed and responded impatiently with a couple of mumbles before lying down on the bed to rest. Bai Xue noticed this and refrained from saying more. Realizing the time, she got up to cook. After arranging the funeral for the elder at the town, she bought some food back, which meant she no longer had to eat hard cornbread from yesterday onwards. Bai Xue heated up the rice porridge and steamed the cornbread, and after everything was ready, she reheated the leftover white fungus stir-fry from yesterday and put the dishes on the kang table, calling the family to eat.
