Yuanchun let out a wail, "My son, my dear boy! You’re gone—what am I to do now?"
With that, she feigned an inability to bear the shock and collapsed, fainted.
The next day, upon waking, Yuanchun called her eldest grandson and granddaughter to her side. With tear-filled eyes, she told them, "Xiaowu, Xiaoyu, your parents are gone, but don't you worry. You still have your grandmother. I will take care of you from now on. I’ll go out to the fields to earn work points so you can attend school. You must make me proud and finish high school for me to see."
