"Let me tell you, don't even think about using the family's silver; it's meant for building a house. Over these years since we got married, haven't you taken enough to your family? You think I don't say anything, so I don't know? Your lazy brother always claims he's going to do some small business, but who knows what he's really up to? I reckon it's just right for him to serve in the labor force this time, maybe that will cure his laziness."
Whenever Gu Chengyi talked about this brother-in-law, he felt extremely disdainful. He had no skills, only knew how to con his mother and sister into giving him silver to spend, without any shame as a grown man.
