Uncle Zhou took Ji Xiang, Ruyi, and Zhao Cai and hid everything that they could not take with them in the cellar. After covering the cellar, he carried the food and water to the cart and tied them up before covering them with an oilcloth.
After Zhou Jia paid his respects to his grandfather and mother in the small ancestral hall, he put his grandfather and mother's memorial tablets into a wooden box in the carriage. He said to Li Qing, who was waiting there, "Ah Qing, go to the study room. There's the homework I prepared for you on the desk. Take it with you."
"Yes, sir," Li Qing agreed and ran toward the study.
Auntie He came out of the kitchen with a bag of food and placed it in the car. "Young Master, I've placed the food in the cart. Remember to take them out to eat!"
Zhou Jia nodded. "Got it. Have you prepared food in your car?"
"It's ready. I'll go get the water bag." Auntie He turned around and walked towards the kitchen.
