Chapter 505 Envy

Yesterday, Mrs. Chu saw that Su Yunjin and her family had moved into a new house, and she went over for dinner in the evening. Seeing their new home spacious and clean, although Mrs. Chu wasn't as openly jealous as Mrs. Zhang and the others—who couldn't stand to see someone else doing well—she had to admit she did feel a tinge of envy.

She too hoped that one day she could build a house as large as Su Yunjin's with Gu Jianghai, and then they, as husband and wife, could move into it.

Of course, Mrs. Chu was merely daydreaming. With the little income that her husband Gu Jianghai brought home each month, which was just enough to cover their household expenses, the meager amount left over was far from sufficient for building a house. Mrs. Chu had done the math: relying solely on Gu Jianghai's earnings, it would take at least five to six years before they could afford a house like Su Yunjin's.
