"Mind your own business. Maybe he likes soup. Crucian carp soup is sweet and milky white. Haven't you seen how women in their postpartum period love to buy it?"
"He doesn't like eating big fish, but we do!"
“They have jobs in town now and get a monthly salary, so why would they care about a little fish and meat?”
"You don't understand. It's not as convenient to get meat in town as it is in the countryside."
