So what if I have to swallow my pride? In an era where poverty is shamed but not prostitution, what's wrong with me sucking up to my dad? It's not humiliating at all! Back in the dorm, I had to call out 'Dad' several times just to get someone to fetch me a meal. Is cafeteria slop tastier than king crab? Just you wait and see!

The noon meal was a lively affair.
Ma Honglian counted heads and immediately divided the seafood.
First Uncle, Second Uncle, Youngest Aunt, and the four older cousins each received a share for their household.
She also set aside enough portions for her own relatives, spending around 250,000 yuan in total.
There was still plenty left, so all the neighbors received some as well.
Those with whom they had a good relationship received more valuable items, like Sister Liu from upstairs and Wang, the ever-helpful chatterbox.
