Moreover, Fu Yu hasn't returned from his voyage yet.
So, the money Fu Yu originally left with Mrs. Fu has mostly been used to support her own family.
Now, the money in her pocket is almost running out.
If Fu Yu doesn't come back soon, they might not even have money to buy rice.
After all, even if the old couple is frugal, living expenses are inevitable.
That's why Mrs. Fu is so reluctant to spend even a single penny.
She doesn't want to live like this, but there's no choice; after all, she only has one brother.
If her only brother doesn't live well, their ancestors wouldn't be at peace underground.
So, Mrs. Fu thinks, what isn't she satisfied with right now?
Her sons are all successful, and although their family is a bit tight financially, they're not starving.
She was careless this time. When her brother asked for money, she was anxious and gave away the savings.
She even forgot to keep the living expenses for her own family.
