Qin Yao noted down all the New Year gifts returned by various families, locked the storeroom door, and prepared to go back to her room to rest for a while.
"Knock, knock, knock, knock!"
A rhythmic, short knock sounded at the door.
Qin Yao saw Yin Le running out from the woodshed to open the door, relieved to be relaxed, and continued walking toward her bedroom.
She had already resolved the village matters and those of the stationery factory; in the short term, there wouldn't be anything requiring her attention. Qin Yao guessed that whoever was outside the courtyard wasn't looking for her.
Probably it's the village's eldest sisters-in-law and younger aunts, coming to find Mrs. Li to do some sewing together.
The Liu Family was willing to use charcoal for fire, the walls were thick, the windows large and bright, the room was warm and bright; for the past few days, women coming to Mrs. Li's to enjoy the charcoal fire had been unceasing.
