With the nursing home situation settled, Gu'er and the others could finally relax.
The weather had started getting cold in October. A couple of days later, the first snow fell. Gu'er and the others rarely went out unless it was absolutely necessary.
Li Zhi, Dingzi, and Grandma Dingzi spent most of their time at the Sun Family home. While the older women chatted, the younger ones would hang out. Sometimes they planned for the future, drawing up rules and regulations for a shopping center; other times, they played poker and mahjong. At night, they'd fix some side dishes and drink spirits. Life was good.
With the cold weather, Gu'er worried something might happen at the nursing home, so she called often to check in. Wang Shun always reported back that they had stocked up on plenty of firewood and coal, and the rooms were kept very warm.
As for food, there was meat, vegetables, and soup, with more than enough rice and steamed buns for everyone.
