Si Chen and Tong Yao were sponsoring the business, and as their mother-in-law, she couldn’t lag behind. She gritted her teeth and took the lead, not allowing people to snicker behind her back.
Over the years, Chen Jinlan has witnessed the ample support provided by Tong Yao and Si Chen to her daughter and it was with their help that her family’s situation had improved significantly.
Tong Yao and Si Chen had wealth beyond measure, and Gu Hongwei had established a big business in Kyoto, they truly wished to contribute to the village and help everyone escape poverty. If others don’t appreciate this, she does.
Did these people expect money to fall in their laps without any effort? Were they dreaming of fortunate events happening to them?
Her daughter’s family was doing well. Should they split their hard-earned money among these people?
That would be a joke.
Tong Yao and Si Chen looked pleased seeing Chen Jinlan taking the initiative. Chen Jinlan’s lack of confusion on the matter was quite rare.
Seeing someone taking the lead, other villagers, after some hesitation, started to chant, "My family is poor, I don’t have much saving, but I’m willing to contribute two hundred yuan."
This initiative was put forth by Si Chen, his wife, the village chief, and town leaders. They wouldn’t deceive locals. This is a great opportunity, if not taken advantage of, their descendants will only have a bare patch of land left to rely on.
"My family will give three hundred yuan."
