"Mom, wait for me," Liu Zhaodi said as she was about to pull Zhao Pozi to hide beside the pile of firewood.
"Hey, you little bitch, what are you doing? You're hurting me!"
When the two of them arrived at the pile of firewood, Liu Zhaodi looked around to see that there was no one around, secretly unbuckled her belt, took out a few bills from it, and handed them to Mrs. Zhao.
Looking at the money handed to her, Mrs. Zhao took it, counted it, and immediately took out a small piece of blue cloth from her pocket, rolled up the money, wrapped it with the blue cloth, and after rolling it up, stuffed it into the shoe shell basket.
After Mrs. Zhao put the money away, she started complaining, "What's going on? That's all there is to it. What can you do with it? Did you hide it?"
"No, mother, that's all I have. I saved it secretly. My wife won't let me touch the money now. The money is all with my husband."

Liu Zhaodi was panicked. "If it weren't for mother, how could I not care about Jinbao? I really don't have any money. I will definitely send him back home when I have money."
"That's better. If you have anything delicious, don't forget to bring some to your brother when you get home. Don't just think about yourself. Your brother is the root of our Liu family. I'll go back first. Your brother is still waiting for you at home!" After saying this, Mrs. Zhao left arrogantly without waiting for Liu Zhaodi.
Liu Zhaodi stood beside the pile of firewood and watched Mrs. Zhao walking away slowly with a hunched back. Tears couldn't stop flowing down her face, and she became more determined to save more money for herself.
