Zhang Hongyan guessed it was about time, stood up, and said, "It's getting late, I should get busy. You all do whatever you need to do."
Her tasks for re-education were different from the labor tasks of other members in terms of time and content.
Lin Shou hurried to his feet, looking at her eagerly, "Wife, I'll go with you."
Zhang Hongyan shook her head decisively, refusing him for what must have been the umpteenth time.
"No need, I can manage on my own."
After saying that, the woman picked up the shoulder pole leaning against the corner of the wall and slowly left the courtyard.
Lin Shou and the other two had grown accustomed to this scene.
But watching Zhang Hongyan's retreating figure still made their hearts ache unbearably.
Lin Xiaojing's nose tingled with sadness, "Dad, why is Mom so distant? If we did it together, wouldn't it be finished quickly? Why won't she let us help..."
She couldn't understand her mother's stubbornness.
