Grandma Shen heard the decision and her eyebrows furrowed immediately, releasing harsh words: "Don't even think about asking me to donate money, I won't give a single peanut!"

It would be odd if the two factions didn't end up fighting.
Money, whether donated in large or small amounts, is needed from every household.
