While this work helps put food on the table, the elderly, the frail, the women, and the children still have nothing to do. It makes people restless, and it’s a waste of human resources."
Wang Diren listened and replied with a playful tone, "My dear Sister Xiuqin, why are you so accustomed to holding a golden rice bowl while begging for food everywhere you go?"
Yang Xiuqin asked in confusion, "A golden rice bowl? Where? I don't see one."
