The Zheng family was trying to raise money in hopes of finding jobs for Zheng Weijian and his wife.
Zhou Juan had prospects for work, but when it came to Zheng Weijian's employment, Mother Zheng began to worry.
She would either find a job too tiring or too far from home; in short, she had many complaints.
When Big Sister Zheng heard her mother's voice of disapproval again, she couldn't help rolling her eyes several times before she felt much better.
"Mom, I know you think highly of my little brother, but you must understand that outside, nobody will give him face," she said.
"Nowadays, everyone wants their children to have a job and not become sent-down youth. The desirable jobs either come with a high price tag or are already taken by someone else."
"Even for these jobs that you look down on, there are many people vying for them."
