Chen Ming knew what Mrs. Hu was thinking and sighed with the money in his hand, "It doesn't seem like a small sum, but with our household expenses, medicine, houses repairs, it'll be gone in a flash."

It'll also be easier for big brother to draw from it when needed."

The old lady agreed and took the money.
