Now, there weren't too many children in the playground, maybe around twenty or thirty. Older children stayed back home for school.
Although these children are all under the age of seven or eight, they can make quite a mess. The boys are particularly naughty, asking thousands of questions every day, and some as young as two or three years old will cry at the drop of a hat.
All this leaves Zheng Haimei feeling frazzled every day, the sounds of the children's crying and squabbling nearly driving her crazy. But, of course, that's a story for another time.
In the past couple of days, despite going out, Su Xiaowan wasn't idle at home. They had received quite a lot of cabbages at the playground and she was just in time to pickle some sauerkraut.
No one knows when Su Xiaowan bought a small jar, which she carried to the corridor, filling it with the prepared cabbage and weighted it down with a large stone.
