Mrs. Wang and Tong Zhijie rushed towards the old Gu Family house.
Tong Fusheng, usually calm in front of the old Mrs. Gu, couldn't remain calm anymore. He stepped over her legs and entered the courtyard.
The old Mrs. Gu let out a wail.
Mrs. Wang and Tong Fusheng paused, realizing no one was coming out despite all the noise. They guessed the old Mrs. Gu was the only one home.
If it's just an old lady, there's nothing to be afraid of.
Tong Fusheng sat on a stool in the courtyard, catching his breath.
Mrs. Wang boldly entered the Gu Family's kitchen. There was a pot on the stove, filled with hot water.
Tong Zhijie carried the washbasin from the courtyard to the kitchen to fill it with hot water.
Bathing was impossible.
In the freezing weather, it was too cold, and there wasn't enough water.
At most, they could wipe off the dirt from their bodies and change clothes, as long as they didn't look so disheveled.
