章 469: Chapter 470: The Fortune-Telling Landlady

"Ah, how do you understand this?" Old Chen looked helplessly at Mother Chen and said, "Our daughter is already in such a good position, I think there's no need to demand too much materially. We can lower some material standards and appropriately raise the moral standards. What do you think?"

After all, his wife had come up from hardship. When she married Old Chen, they had nothing, not even their own house, but rented one; the only electric device they had was a radio, no bicycle, and they lacked every other essential item for marriage like bicycles, watches, and sewing machines. They too had ascended from poverty. Now, they were considered moderately well-off. But compared to the Jiang Family, they were far behind.
