NovelEnglishHow she wished Elaine was indeed as pitiful as how she had described her! In fact, the more pitiful was Elaine, the better! i Nonetheless, the caterer didn't know she was lying at all.
Who would have thought any ordinary old lady would curse her own family members out of the blue? Therefore, the caterer believed everything that cfrom her mouth was true.
She replied with sympathy, "No wonder you still have to work outside at such an old age. It must be very tough for you to have experienced all those misfortunes in your family!" 1 She then said, "Old lady, there're still sleftovers of about seven to eight steamed buns and the portion of remaining rice is sufficient for four people. Also, there are sremnants of dishes. Do you have any containers? I'll pack for you to bring home!" 1 Lady Wilson felt very excited, yet, she calmed herself and said melancholically, "How can I afford any containers? Both my daughters-in-laws are barely surviving due to starvation..." She looked at the plastic bags hanging on the side of the counter. She then blurted out, "Why not pack all those leftovers into the plastic bags forto bring them home?" The caterer nodded her head quickly, "It's definitely okay foras long as you're fine with that!" Lady Wilson said hurriedly, "Of course I'm fine with that!" The caterer put all those leftovers into four plastic bags very swiftly.

On second thought, she told herself, No way! I must carry them hno matter how. Our family should be able to survive for at least two days with this food.
Otherwise, how much food can I buy with only one hundred Oskian dollars? She thanked the caterer and forced herself to carry the four big plastic bags home.
On the way, Lady Wilson was reluctant to call a cab, as it would cost her at least half her salary.
As such, she decided to take public transport, which was more economical.
She bought two ham sausages at a store by the side of the road, with the hope that these would provide snutrients to Christopher and Harold. Besides, she could obtain ssmall change for public transport too. 4 On the public transport, a majority of the elderly used elderly public transport cards to get a free ride. Lady Wilson had none, so she threw an Oskian dollar into the coin box.
She had long known that the local elderly who were sixty-five years old and above were entitled with elderly public transport cards for free rides on public transport.
Nevertheless, Lady Wilson had never taken any forms of public transport prior to this. Her commuting means were none other than a chauffeur who was in charge of all her daily transportation needs. What was an elderly free ride public transport card to her back then? To her, even the procedures to apply for this card would be embarrassing too.

However, she felt regretful now. She thought to herself, As soon as the Oskian New Year ends and my family members are ers are able to work, Il get myself an elderly public transport card. With the card, I can get free rides on public transports. I can save a few Oskian dollars a day and cumulatively, I can save a lot each month! With the large plastic bags, Lady Wilson had finally reached the villas at Thompson First.
At the entrance of Thompson First, when she was about to swipe her entrance card, a well-dressed lady pinched her nose and shouted at her, "Where are you from, old lady? Why are you carrying bags of leftovers here? Do you know where this place is? This is Thompson First! You definitely can't afford to buy one of the houses here even if you work for several lifetimes!"
Lady Wilson was already exhausted and the approach of a proud woman from nowhere aroused her angen" Ridiculous! Do you know where I live? I live at A04! Look at yourself, you're behaving like a peasant I guess the most you can afford is only one of the houses near the peripheral!"
The moment the lady heard these words, she rushed over and instantly slapped Lady Wilson. She scolded her, "D*mn you, old lady? My house costs at least twenty million! How dare you laugh at me? Look at yourself, see how poor you look! How shameless of you to even say that you live in a villa!" RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
