The next day, he got up bright and early.
The wood he hadn’t split yesterday, now was the time for him to exert his strength.
Madam Rong always rose early, and as she came out to prepare food in the small kitchen, a glance revealed Qin Ye chopping wood.
Her eyes twitched involuntarily, "Qin, why are you up so early? Why don’t you sleep a little longer?"
"Mother, I usually get up at this time when I’m at work, I’m used to it."
When he said this, it was Madam Rong’s turn to be puzzled, "Your job... even the earliest is around 7 a.m., right? There’s a need to go to work even earlier?"
She had heard that only teachers needed to be up that early, since they had to supervise the students who went to school for morning self-study.
But to go to the workplace this early?
"I usually get up early to exercise," Qin Ye explained.
On hearing this, Madam Rong heaved a sigh of relief.
She had thought his job required him to be up so early... that would be tiring, working all day long!
Knowing that stopping him from chopping the wood was probably futile, she let him be.
"Then chop just a little, that should be sufficient. I’ll start cooking."
Qin Ye responded, "Okay, Mother."
Before long, Rong Wenming also got up.
Seeing the person working, he had to admit, having one more person at home changed the atmosphere.
"Dad," Qin Ye called out on seeing him.
Rong Wenming nodded and then pointed to the pile of split wood, "That’s enough, don’t chop any more. I can do this job myself normally."
It wasn’t necessarily the son-in-law’s responsibility.
"Dad, it’s no trouble, I’ll just finish this bit."
Seeing him say this, Rong Wenming decided to leave him to it.
After all, he also needed to wash his face and brush his teeth; he was going to work soon.
Except for Rong Yan, who was still sleeping in, everyone in the family was up, including Qin Mei.
Rong Wenming was going to work, so after eating breakfast, he rode off on his bicycle.
Qin Mei, on the other hand, started to feed Xiaohei... since the family ate well, and Madam Rong especially doted on Xiaohei, the pet was fed quite lavishly.
Essentially, whatever they ate, Xiaohei would get a serving of the same.
So, animals too have their sense of spirit; it was particularly gentle with its two caretakers, never growling at them.
"Mother, I’m going out to buy some vegetables."
Madam Rong saw that Qin Ye had already been pushing the bicycle, so she swallowed back her words about it being unnecessary.
"... then be careful on the road, and there’s no need to buy too much, we have plenty at home."
"Okay, I know," Qin Ye responded and began to push the bicycle out.
At that moment, something occurred to Madam Rong and she suddenly asked a pointed question, "Qin, do you have money on you?"
Perhaps realizing the bluntness of her question, she quickly rephrased, "What I mean is, do you have enough cash and tickets? If not, I can give you some more."
"Mother, I have money, and I have tickets."
"... Alright then, go early and come back soon, to avoid the heat later."
