What was the point of having more money if she was dead? What was the point of having money if she had nowhere to spend it?

"I didn't hurt your child. The child is with my husband. You also know that my family has been short of money recently. I asked your mother to lend me some money, but she refused. We had no choice, so we thought about hiding your child. When the time comes, we'll demand a ransom and send the child back to you."
The woman sat there, covering her face and wailing loudly, "We were forced to do that. We had no money. We asked you to lend some to us, but you could not even do that. You forced us to go to this extent. The richer you people get, the more stingy you are."
The more the woman spoke, the angrier she became. "The Lu family is rich. You are related to the Lu family. Who would believe that you have no money? Your husband is Jiang Yao's elder brother. How could he not accept benefits from the Lu family? Now he is an official in the city. You even have a good job. You two have such a high salary, but you don't want to help me at all. And Auntie, what do you mean you don't have money? How long have you been married? You have so much betrothal money. Have you spent it all? You are unwilling to lend us money because you look down on me."

"What are you—" Although Mr. Jiang was a farmer, he had never quarreled with anyone in his life. At that moment, he was so angry that he wanted to scold someone, but he could not find any words to vent his anger. "You two are as lazy as loafers. You have hands and feet, but you don't work to earn money to support yourself. Why should they give you money?"
Everyone knew those two people's behavior. Who would want to lend them money?

Wang Xian's cousin's husband sat in the living room drinking wine and eating meat, and the child was crying loudly from hunger. He had no intention of feeding the child.
After Wang Xian's mother woke up, she hugged the child and cried. She was regretful because she let that woman into their home and caused the child to suffer. The whole family had been worried and afraid.

After crying for a while, he fell asleep in his mother's arms after he had eaten his fill. His chubby little face was still covered in tears even after he had fallen asleep.
