After a day of work, Qiu Shuping and her daughter ended up looking like dusty ragamuffins.
Picking corn was alright, but transporting baskets of corn back home really wore the two of them out.
When Shen Yunfang got off work and came home, she saw the corn everywhere in the yard, with Qiu Shuping and her daughter sprawled on the Kang, playing possum.
Shen Yunfang cheerfully began to cook (during harvest season, she didn't need to tend to the vegetables), and after she had laid out all the food in the house, she finally called the mother and daughter to eat.
"Mom, eat more, Xianghe, you really worked hard today. If it had just been me, it would have taken two or three days to bring it all back. Now, the more people we have, the greater our strength." Shen Yunfang affectionately added a piece of cabbage to each of her mother-in-law's and sister-in-law's bowls as a reward.
