The next day, there was no need to go harvest corn, but Mom Fu asked Fu Ying to go to the street market with her. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and they needed to buy some things, so she wanted Fu Ying along to carry the load back.
Fu Ying asked Mom Fu what she planned to buy. Mom Fu replied that they needed mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival, as well as joss paper and incense to worship the ancestors, as the house had run out of both.
When they stepped out, Fu Ying thought it was her imagination. While working hard yesterday, she hadn't felt it, but today the sky was somewhat overcast, and the temperature felt as though it had dropped by several degrees. Seeing several elderly women passing by already wearing thick coats, Fu Ying realized that it was truly getting cold.
