「Gaoling Village.」
Li Cuicui looked at her daughter's family with a headache. "Didn't you use the settling-in allowance we gave you before to build a house?"
Gu Yuanfeng glanced at He Tuping, carefully cradling her belly. "Mother, what's the point of talking about this now? Even if we wanted to build a house right now, we can't get our hands on any mud bricks.
"Look, you have a brick-and-tile house here. Just take us in for the winter. Once spring comes, we'll definitely go back to the village and build a house."
"What about your mother-in-law and the rest? How come they have a place to live?" Li Cuicui stared at He Tuping. "Don't tell me they only kicked your little family out again?"
Seeing the family of three fall silent, Li Cuicui threw her hands up. "What about your rations? You aren't just coming here empty-handed with three mouths to feed off us two old folks, are you?"
They remained silent.
