The two children were still young, and with a bit of her lighthearted banter, they quickly forgot about what had just happened. By the time the mother and her two children reached the entrance of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative, they had completely recovered their spirits.
The Supply and Marketing Cooperative was not as grand as the department store; the variety of goods it sold was quite limited. Only essential daily necessities were displayed on the counters. Feng Qingqing took a look around, knowing that Principal Du’s family was not in need of such basic items. In the end, she bought two cans of fruit, two catties of *sachima*, and five apples. She then retrieved a small bag of flower tea from her bag and placed it into the mesh basket. Only then did she take the children by the hand and head toward the Du family home.
Because of the delay, it was already around 9:30 by the time they reached the Du household. She knocked on the door, and soon after, footsteps could be heard from within. A moment later, Old Madam Du, whom they hadn't seen for some time, stood at the door. The old lady’s demeanor looked much better now. She stood there, full of vitality and beaming with smiles, and upon seeing the mother and her two children, she hurried to welcome them inside with great enthusiasm.
