If Cao Lijuan had been a diligent and thrifty woman, that would have been bearable, but the key issue was her laziness and apathy towards her own son.
Thinking about it, she would feed him; forgetting, she'd let him cry. Such a young child, neglected by her, was constantly in and out of the hospital.
Long Gang earned only fifteen yuan a month; how could he possibly support three people?
