"Look at the life your family is living now, it's really quite satisfying." Old Aunt-in-law Gen said with a smile as she cracked open a big crab.
Land Officer's wife also said, "Isn't that the truth? It hasn't been that long, and I, an old woman, have enjoyed eating big crabs several times thanks to your family's good fortune. I hadn't eaten them for many years."
Hearing Land Officer's wife say this, Ms. Wang felt deeply moved as well.
"Aunt-in-law is right. I hadn't eaten big crabs for over a decade. Back then, our family couldn't even afford a piece of meat, and any extra money would be taken by the second branch of the family to the town. Even when we had a few pieces of meat during the New Year, it wasn't our turn to enjoy it." Speaking of these sad memories, Ms. Wang almost cried.
Land Officer's wife hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, times are good now. Look, you're even getting teary. Who in the village can have a better life than you now?"
