Jiang Changtao hadn't been able to enter the factory today and had also embarrassed himself; he felt quite depressed. Now, hearing his mother praising the Eldest at the dinner table made him feel even worse.
Sun Lixia's eyes almost dropped into the lunchbox filled with meat dishes as she swallowed dryly and chewed tastelessly on the coarse grains and vegetables in her mouth.
Listening to her mother-in-law's words, she felt a sourness in her heart.
She thought to herself, What's there to be proud of? It's just a temporary job. Who knows when he might be kicked out?
After dinner, each family member returned to their rooms. Jiang Changhai thought about the dorms at the transport factory, and his initially joyful expression collapsed as he said, "Wife, I went to see the dorms at the factory today. The dorm is small, has no heated kang, and seven or eight families share one toilet and bathroom. The conditions are too poor, let's not move there yet."
