"Hmm, bringing soybeans works too."
Qu Xiaoli isn't a stingy person. Her eldest brother-in-law is good to them, the nephews and nieces are all good, it's just the sisters-in-law aren't great, but that doesn't stop her from giving things.
When Chaoyang returned during lunch, he said, "Dad, I just helped Fourth Uncle to grind with Xiang Dong. His family sent cornmeal to Eldest Uncle."
"Hmm, this afternoon you help your mom select the beans, we'll send soybeans."
"Okay, got it. Should I go with you?"
Li Yungui shook his head, "No need. You two stay at home. We may not be back tomorrow, and if the day after is good weather and the road's passable, you should go buy watermelon. If you're unsure, ask your Master Wei."
"Understood. I think the day after won't work; with all this rain, the road will definitely be muddy."
"Then pick the watermelons tomorrow; with so much rain, they're not sweet and can't be stored."
"Got it."
