All the chicks hatched at home have grown quite a bit, and they've all been given away, except for three that Wang Cuihua insisted on keeping. Xiao Xue couldn't do anything about it, so she just let her mother keep them.
Luckily, there are still more than a hundred pounds of corn grain left from the relief food, which is enough to feed those three chickens.
She's not bothered anymore, and let her mom handle it.
Now that there's someone to help watch the kids, she doesn't need to work in the fields anymore. All she does at home besides sewing shoe soles is cooking and feeding the chickens.
The date for starting the house construction at home has been set, and the mason will be coming over in three days.
Xiao Xue didn't ask Lin Daliang to take a leave to come back. Whether he's here or not, the house can still be built, so why make him take a leave?
