Shen Yunfang had just started working when Dashuan's wife came rushing in, all flustered.
"Yunfang, Yunfang, have you come back, really come back?" Dashuan's wife called out as soon as she entered the courtyard.
"Of course, I'm already at home, aren't I truly back?" Shen Yunfang replied from within the house.
By this time, Dashuan's wife had already come inside and walked up to the kang bed, looking Shen Yunfang up and down, finally concluding, "You seem a bit thinner to me, did you not eat well over there, or were things not going smoothly for you? If so, just come back. At least here at home you can always have enough to eat." She was treating Shen Yunfang as if she were an African refugee.
After all, Shen Yunfang had told her about how tough it was being with the military, where the allotted food for family members was barely enough to stave off hunger.
