"I'll go back and discuss it with Qinqin!" Lady Fang lifted her foot to leave.
Lady Chen reminded from behind, "Second Sister-in-law, you must keep your eyes peeled. Don't get fooled by someone's sweet words or small favors!"
Lady Fang kept silent and went out through the main gate.
Seeing Pei Qin waiting for her with arms crossed by the doorpost, she smiled, "Let's go! Back home!"
Pei Qin opened the picket fence gate to let her in and locked it behind her, "Let's kill the chicken! We don't have the space to keep it, nor food to feed it. If it goes hungry for two days, it might even lose a pound!"
They wouldn't have a chance to eat at home at noon.
"This chicken can lay eggs! We could buy some corn to feed it!" Si Ya didn't want it killed. Why had her older sister become so fond of eating? Meat every few days, and only the best rice and flour, and now she couldn't wait to kill the chicken they just got.
