Ever since she went to Qijia Village as an educated youth, she had received letters from her family, but there was never any news from them asking her to come home for the New Year.
She knew well that living conditions at home were tough, and they had few rooms, but it seemed like they could have squeezed in one more during New Year's, right?
But in the letters, her mother repeated, time and again, that with two brothers married, there was simply no space left at home. Not only did they plead poverty, but her mother also often asked her for money.

Such a thing had never happened before, so Huang Jingli was a bit afraid.
After so many years, she was tired, drained, and thought about finding someone to marry.
