"I want to earn money!" Qiao Mei said.
Qiao Qiang jumped in fright, thinking that he had misheard.
"Earn money?" Qiao Qiang said with a smile. "Good, good, good! Grandfather will go to town tomorrow to ask around and find you a good job!"
In his opinion, if one wanted to earn money, one should go to work in the city so as to be able to earn a decent salary.
He used to think so too and even found Qiao Mei a job. Qiao Mei went to work happily, but not even half a day later, she came back because she said it was too tiring.
Now Mei Mei had really grown up as she knew she needed to make money to support her family.
"No, no, no!" Qiao Mei immediately said. "How much money can one earn from being a worker? It's not even enough to supplement the household expenses. Besides, I have to leave home to go to work and I don't feel at ease leaving you alone at home."
When Qiao Qiang heard this, his eyes reddened.
