Yi Meng listened to the daughter and mother-in-law's words, then returned to Qi Quanjin and repeated the meaning, finally adding, "We don't have much water left, and that water isn't good to give them, so I'm thinking of letting them collect snow themselves. We'll bring it over, boil it, add some ginger slices, and once it's done, distribute it to them. Brother Jin, do you think that will work?"
"It's a method."
Qi Quanjin nodded, "I'll go talk to Dad and them, see what their plan is."
Yi Meng responded with a "Hmm," and wrapped the quilt tighter around herself.
Qi Quanjin quickly went to find the elder men to discuss this matter.
Everyone agreed that this could be done.
Qi Zheng sighed, "If we can lend a hand, we should. Otherwise, it's not right to let them freeze to death beside us."
Mr. Wang Sr. said, "Yes! I was just thinking, what if they get desperate and come to snatch our things? Even if we can protect our stuff with our numbers, we'd have to fight."
