If he had to take time off, he would lose part of his wages, and he only made eighteen yuan a month. Added to Shazhu’s daily food containers and the assistance from Yi Zhonghai, this was the only way to ensure their family of three wouldn't starve. Furthermore, after working so hard every day, how could he possibly have the energy to pick up and drop off Mrs. Jia?
With Mrs. Jia sent off to serve her sentence in Beidahuang, the courtyard seemed to grow quiet all of a sudden. After all, with the disappearance of the person who stirred up all the trouble, conflicts in the courtyard had dropped by ninety percent. Plus, since Yi Zhonghai was no longer the Committee Head, he could no longer show blatant favoritism, and tensions between neighbors naturally eased significantly.

The Dragon Country had thousands of years of tradition, and even in these difficult times, people’s anticipation for the Lunar New Year remained undiminished. Everyone was currently focused on how to make the best of the holiday; after all, it was the most important festival of the year.
