The winter in Linyi County was colder than in the Yan Family village, and since the snow began to fall, the old lady of the Yan Family had curled up inside the house, unwilling to step outside.
Daohua feared that the old lady spending too much time cooped up would cause her to fall ill, so every time she dined at Songhe Courtyard, she would make it a point to take the old lady out for a few laps afterward to move about and get some fresh air.
On the day of the Laba Festival, Daohua and the others had no classes, so after breakfast, she took the old lady for a walk.
When Yan Zhigao arrived, he just missed the grandparent and grandchild.
"Where is the old lady?"
Yan Zhigao asked the maid cleaning the room, looking inquisitive.
The maid smiled and said, "The eldest girl has taken the old lady out for a digestive stroll."
Yan Zhigao glanced at the snow outside the door and frowned, saying, "Isn't this nonsense? On such a cold day, what if the old lady catches a chill?"
