The woman hurriedly said, "I can manage, I can manage!"
Xia Wenjin: "..."
As they were speaking, a child's voice came from the doorway. A seven or eight-year-old boy, full of energy and sweating profusely, rushed in and yelled, "Mom, Mom, is there any water to drink? I'm dying of thirst."
The woman went to get water for the child. Xia Wenjin looked at the boy and took out a piece of candy from his sleeve, saying, "Your name is Hu Tou, right? Brother here has candy, come, have a piece."
Hu Tou opened his large eyes, his face covered in dirt and dust. Despite his drooling, he didn't immediately take the candy but looked at the woman instead.
The woman said, "How can I accept such kindness? Hu Tou, thank your brother!"
Hu Tou promptly said, "Thank you, brother!" He took the candy and began to eat it.
Xia Wenjin glanced at the woman, "Sister-in-law, can I take a look at Hu Tou's body?"
