Besides constructing the stone steps, she also needed to make handrails, tasks she left to Xiao Ze to busily take on. She herself secretly bought thermal clothes from the Space Mall, stuck on warm baby stickers, and headed to the seashore to forage.

After the weather turned cold, she discovered an oyster area where the reefs, large and small, were all covered with dark green oysters. The sight made her scalp tingle, but she was also excited.
