The next day, early morning.
Su Shu rose early to cook, and half an hour later, the members of the Tang Family began to wake up, one by one.
After breakfast, Tang Husheng, as usual, planned to go to his military job.
Song Auntie had little appetite. Upon noticing she was still not feeling well, Su Shu sent her back to rest.
Zhan An, Song Auntie's husband, intended to make some handy tools in the backyard. After Su Shu had finished her chores, she approached him for advice on places in the provincial city where materials could be exchanged.
Zhan An was slightly surprised, "What do you want to exchange?"
"Uncle Zhan, I want to see if there's anything good. If I happen to have something worth trading, I might as well exchange for it."
She didn't mention that she wanted to exchange for food because she figured if she did, the exchange might fall through.
Zhan An stood up and wiped his hands, pondering for a moment.
