"This..." Yu Fen paused after hearing Fang Pingying's words, then revealed her intentions, "No, I just wanted to ask since you've opened a store and mentioned that Yu'er could work there, would you be able to let my Cheng Fei also work at your store next year, to earn some money every month."
She paused briefly, touched her belly with some worry, and said, "Look, I am about to give birth soon, and I will need money. Farming at home doesn't bring in much throughout the year, I'm afraid we won't even have enough to eat."
Once Yu Fen finished speaking, Yu'er sarcastically laughed, "Sister-in-law, don't sugarcoat it. When we eat at home, have you ever paid or anything? Isn't it always money given by my parents?"
Yu Fen gave her a sidelong glance, retorting sharply, "Didn't your brother and I work too? The money we earned is tightly controlled by your mother, and we haven't received a cent. Do you still want to deny us food?"
