Night.
Sanpang began to pack up his own things.
"Sister Three." The fourth sister called out and came to her side: "I'll clean up with you!"
"Okay, I've finished packing. I'll take this away, and leave this for you." Sanpang said, stuffing another bag to the fourth sister for the table.
The table was taken over, placed on the kang, opened it and looked at it. It was filled with things that Sanpang had used before: "Sister San, do you really want any of these things?"
Sanpang: "Yes."
The table was full: "Sister, I want it all."
Sanpang: "Yeah, let's do it!"
The table was full of those things, very happy.
Sanpang: "The table is full, put those things aside first. I have a few words to tell you."
The table was full: "What are you talking about? Tell me! I'm listening."
Sanpang said to her seriously and very seriously: "The table is full, I will get married the day after tomorrow and leave the house. When my sister leaves, you will be older among the sisters in the family. You are fifteen years old this year, so you should know everything."
The table was full of eyes and listened to her.
Sanpang: "After I leave, I hope you will worry more about your mother and do more work for her. She is getting older and getting worse and worse. Her two younger brothers and sisters are still young and not very sensible. As a sister, you must take good care of them for your mother."
The table was full of nodding.
Sanpang: "If you have something at home and can't make decisions, you have to discuss it with your mother."
"Yes." The table kept nodding, agreeing to her.

Night.
Sanpang came to his mother's house.
My mother is not asleep yet and is still busy.
Sanpang: "Mom, why haven't you been sleeping yet?"
Mother: "Mom can't sleep, so she can do some work while she's at this time at night."
Sanpang sat on the kang by his mother, caring: "Mom, you are not in good health, don't be too tired."
"Mom knows." After sewing the thread in her hand, she put down her work, looked at her daughter, and said, "Sanpang, you will leave this home the day after tomorrow. What are you thinking?"
Sanpang: "Mom, I really don't want to leave you and your younger brothers and sisters."
The mother smiled and said, "Silly child, don't say that! When my daughter is old, one day she will have to find her husband's house. If she finds her husband's house, then what if she doesn't leave her house? This is like a bird. When she grows up and has a hard wing, she will always leave her nest and fly away."
"Mom." Sanpang shouted and lay his head in his mother's arms.
The mother hugged her like a child and said to her: "Sanpang, you are leaving. Before you leave, my mother wants to tell you a few words."
Sanpang: "Mom, you said."
Mother: "After leaving my mother and getting to my mother-in-law's house, I'm not as casual as I am at my own home. Ah! First, you have a good temper. Don't get angry with your father-in-law and mother-in-law or get upset. Your man is still young, so you have to take good care of him for your parents and let him study well;"
Sanpang nodded.
Mother: "Second, be diligent, don't be too arrogant, but have a life in your eyes. After passing the door, you have to be the same as when you were at home. You must get up early and not sleep. As the saying goes, do you wake up early and get up late and get up three times long? In addition, you must also know how to respect the elderly and love the young, respect the elderly, and be a good wife that everyone in the neighbors boast about. Have you remembered all these?
Sanpang looked at his mother and nodded heavily: "Mom, I understand."
