The Stone Bodhisattva followed Seven all the way to her home, but her mother, Chi, wasn't there. He didn't mind, just found a spot and sat down, glancing around at the shabby little wooden house. He guessed it was built by the labor team—it was just the kind he used to put together when he first arrived in Wanjin. These simple houses only served for basic resettlement; if you wanted a better life, you had to apply for a plot of land with merit or money and build your own place.
Seven fetched water for Stone Bodhisattva and explained, "My mom's at work. She should be back soon, Brother Bodhisattva, just wait a bit."
"All right!" Stone Bodhisattva took the water and started drinking, then casually asked, "Which workshop is your mom at now?"
