Everyday Life of Making Ends Meet in the City

Born into an ordinary family in an ancient town, Cui Ruying has a father who is a carpenter and a mother who works as an embroiderer. Her parents love each other, and the family lives comfortably. The year Cui Ruying was born into this world, she had an older brother and an older sister. The family was doing well, and her mother recovered well after giving birth and had plenty of milk. She found a new job as a wet nurse for another family. When Cui Ruying was three, another little brother joined the family. Her mother had already gone to work as a wet nurse at the Earl's estate. When Cui Ruying was five, her mother had another child. When she was seven, the family grew again. But with more people to feed, life became tighter and tighter. Her mother left her in charge of looking after her little sister and started getting ready to go work as a wet nurse at the Marquis's estate. Cui Ruying shakes her head. She doesn't want to be the family's built-in nanny. She's going along too. Theme: Grow toward the light
