Di Yelei returned home just before nightfall.

The jujube red horse was covered in sweat and kept snorting, clearly exhausted.

But Di Yelei was in high spirits and shouted as soon as he entered the door, “Sisi! I’m back!”

While talking, he led the jujube red horse back to the stable, removed the saddle, fetched fodder and oats for feeding, and brushed its mane with a brush while the horse was eating.

Hearing Di Yelei’s voice outside, Liu Sisi finally relaxed and hurried out of the house.

“Why did you come back so late today? Hurry up and feed the horse, then come in for dinner. It looks like it might snow again with this weather.”

“Alright! I’ll be right in.”

Di Yelei responded, but his hands didn’t stop brushing the horse.

“Hurry up, I’ve set the table.”

After saying that, Liu Sisi went back into the house.

Today’s meal didn’t have much variety, but seeing that Ah-Huang was feeling unwell, Liu Sisi specially cooked a thick bone meat soup, and also made hand grasping pancakes with three types of fillings – small dried shrimp egg filling, chive lean meat filling, and cabbage vegetable filling. Additionally, there were stir-fried bean sprouts and rice, enough for the whole family to eat.

When Liu Sisi had placed the dishes on the table, she unexpectedly saw Liu Zhi’er’s figure appear at the entrance of the house.

It has to be said that Liu Zhi’er’s face had gradually lost its swelling, and her facial features were gradually becoming clearer. It was easy to see that the two sisters looked very similar, as if they were cast from the same mold.

“Second Sister, come and eat. Just sit here.”

Liu Sisi was overjoyed. She was happier than anyone else that her second sister was willing to come out of her room for dinner.

Liu Zhi’er didn’t say anything, just silently sat down nearby, quietly looking at the food in her bowl and observing the surroundings.

Her gaze was caught by the row of vegetables at the edge of the stove, and she was truly astonished!

Liu Sisi followed Liu Zhi’er’s gaze, and immediately realized, “Oh! These are the vegetables I planted in my spare time. There’s not much to eat during winter, and I can’t stand just eating meat. So I sprouted some bean sprouts and planted some chinese chives.”

As the two sisters were talking, their father came in leaning on his crutch.

“Father, please wash your hands.”

Liu Sisi quickly brought the basin of hot water, then went around calling the two children, “Xuan’er, YingEr, it’s time to eat!”

While talking, she turned around and started ladling rice, “Father, don’t always stay in that tent, it’s not as warm as inside the house. Be careful not to catch a cold.”

“I’m fine… I’m used to it.”

Their father smiled and took a seat at the head of the table.

Liu Zhi’er watched in amazement as Liu Sisi busied herself, spinning around like a spinning top, constantly taking care of the whole family.

Her eyes filled with memories of her little sister from the past, and then her eyes darkened.

Little Sister… had changed so much!

Finally, Di Yelei strode in, “Hey! It got really late at the governmental office today, so I rushed back as fast as possible. Fortunately, I didn’t miss the right time. But poor Step Snow was exhausted from the ride!”

Step Snow was the name Di Yelei had given the jujube red horse.
