The few people who had been observing all along could not help but join in as they listened to Jun Ning chatter away with Qiong Hua while working each day.
With more hands, the work that used to take several days was now finished in just three.
Next, everyone started planting vegetables. Due to the Cold Palace's limited water supply, they didn't plant much, just enough to last for a few months.
Jun Yu appeared when Jun Ning was barefoot, watering the newly planted vegetables and playing with the water to cool off.
"Cuckoo... Cuckoo... Cuckoo..."
Jun Yu had crawled through a hole to enter the Cold Palace, but he didn't know where his big brother was, and he wasn't familiar with the Cold Palace, worrying about causing trouble. So, he stayed put, calling out the way Jun Ning had taught him, hoping his big brother would quickly hear and come get him.
Upon hearing the cuckoo's call, Jun Ning rushed to meet Jun Yu, without even putting down the water ladle in his hand.
