Uncle Fu was telling Chen Xian something unbelievable.
Uncle Fu chuckled and said, "The Song family across the street is damn stingy, you know that?"
He only paid the tailors a few dozen coins a day, the food was terrible, and they worked five or six hours a day, often overtime, and he was reluctant to pay them a single penny.
