Ms. Qian deeply agreed with Old Zhou on this point, and therefore chided Manbao a little, "Managing a household requires thrift and economy; we can't always think about buying delicious food and fun things. Only by being frugal can a family have surplus."
Ms. Qian couldn't hold back and took the opportunity to teach her daughter, "Look at our big family; there are many of us and we earn a lot, but if we have no savings, what do we do if one or two people fall ill, or if we face natural disasters or misfortunes?"
Old Zhou nodded repeatedly, "Exactly, exactly, Manbao, it's fine to play with the young masters of the Bai Family, and you can learn their skills, but don't learn their spending habits. We need to learn how to save money, understand?"
Ms. Qian snapped back to her purpose and resumed, "But when I say I want to divide money among the children, I don't mean for them to take it and pay it off right away."
