Everyone believed Gu Qingyao.
Although there were many people in the Gu family who were earning a wage, they also had many children. Also, they were all away from their home, working hard for work points.
Among the Gu brothers, almost every family had two or three sons. Although the older ones were old enough to earn money, the younger ones still depended on their parents for support.
The adolescents ate them out of house and home. It was not easy to raise two boys - they needed a lot of food.
The older ones were of marriageable age, but weddings also cost money. It was normal that they were scrimping and saving.
By that logic, Gu Yunshen who lived at home, and only had daughters, just needed enough to eat. He really did not spend much.
Also, the villagers had food points. Although they had very little money, and in fact, many households had no money at all, all they needed was food.
