Being a woman with bound feet, she couldn't handle heavy labor. Over those years, to bring up her two children, she endured every hardship imaginable.
Wu Jinshu knew his mother had suffered a great deal and sighed, "Mom, it's my fault for being useless, for not having the ability to get you a nice Western-style house to live in. But rest assured, I believe that one day, our family will be able to live in one!"
Grandma Wu wiped away her tears, "Will you burn one for me when I die?"

With the current economic situation of Wu Jinshu and Yan Erju, dreaming of a Western-style house was like waiting till the cows come home!
Wu Jinshu helplessly replied, "Mom, don't talk like that, it's bad luck."
