"Third Brother, you don't know, last night at the dinner table, my eldest sister-in-law asked me how much money Xinxin and I made in the Capital City?"
He paused before adding, "Of course, I answered with a question too, saying this year's harvest was so good, surely we divided a decent sum, right?"
Yun Xiaoxiao really didn't know how to judge these petty household matters.
They say even a fair official has difficulty settling domestic disputes.
He, as one of the younger generation, felt it was even harder to comment on his little uncle and little aunt's affairs.
"And then?"
Could it be that was it, and there was nothing more?
"I just said that living expenses in the Capital City are high, and it's especially cold there, so you have to buy two quilts, clothes, and shoes. Cotton shoes simply won't do outside. Then there's food and accommodation – all told, each month you're lucky to save 20 yuan. We were there for three months and earned 60 yuan."
Add another zero to that?
