After getting in the car, Liang Li grumbled about various things, "Zhang Yu is really something. She gets a fifteen-thousand-yuan scholarship every semester."
"And yet she still cares about such a small amount of New Year's money."
"And my brother-in-law, wanting to blow this out of proportion. We could have stayed at my parents' for dinner; now look what happened."
Liang Li's husband drove quietly, without any intention of joining the conversation.
After grumbling, Liang Li reached out to Liu Xia, "Give me the New Year's money."
Liu Xia was reluctant, "It's the New Year's money from my grandparents."
Liang Li sneered unkindly, "Come on, if your mom didn't always cry poor, do you think they'd give you so much New Year's money?"
"Liu Xia, let me tell you, it's not really New Year's money. Your grandparents know I'm having a tough time, so they just used the pretense of New Year's money to give me some."
