The second update, asking for pink tickets.
********.........******
Lian Manman here bought the land, planned it out, and now just waits for the thaw to start construction, while Old Huang, carrying the silver from Lian Manman's family and accompanied by two attendants, has already embarked on his journey south.
Lian Manman sat by the table, calculating under the candlelight. By the time Old Huang returns from the south, their fish pond should already be dug. By then, the warm spring and blooming flowers will make it the perfect season to plant lotus roots.
"What are you thinking about, smiling so cheerfully?" Lian Zhizhi, who was working on her needlework across the table, raised her head and glanced at Lian Manman, smiling as she asked.
"I was thinking about how, once our family starts raising fish, we'll be able to eat fish every day." And in the winter, we'll also have an extra vegetable: fresh lotus roots.
Lian Zhizhi laughed too.
