"How are you doing, now that Li Hongjun has left? Feeling upset?" She was actually there to offer comfort, but Dashuan's wife secretly scolded herself for bringing up such a sore subject.
"Not upset, what's there to be upset about? I'm so busy every day, I don't have time to think about him." Shen Yunfang's words were strong-willed, yet she stabbed the awl into the sole of a large shoe with more force than necessary.
She was making these shoes for Li Hongjun, but before she could finish the soles, he had already left.
"You're just being stubborn. It's okay to be that way with me, but you can't do that with your Li Hongjun," Dashuan's wife imparted her wisdom.
Shen Yunfang pursed her lips. With him gone, what difference did it make if she was being stubborn or not?
"Hey, I'm telling you, don't just stay home all the time. Get out more when you have nothing to do, chat with everyone, talk a bit. It'll make you feel better," Dashuan's wife advised while stitching a shoe sole.
