Thinking about it, Liuliu felt that her unseen younger brother must be tough, but also very protective. She wondered how he had spent his days in prison? Had he been bullied? His experience of assault and jail time at such a young age would greatly impact his development. If she could get her brother out of prison, she wanted to take him under her wing, and educate him herself alongside Xiaoquan.
Liuliu took Xiaoquan to her childhood home, where they arrived just in time for lunch. After eating together, they began stuffing sausages. The last time she gave her brothers 200 taels of silver to buy pigs, she planned to make sausages from just these 20 pigs, no matter how much meat was left after this. There were 20 odd days until the New Year was to be celebrated, and the family, having been busy for days on end, needed to rest.
