What's famous here?
Uhh, I don't know.
You just live here, you don't know. I don't know.
You don't know?. You just live here. I just sell thats all.
Just lived here for some time. but I...
But living here, you don't go out? right?
No.. uuh okay..
There's a tarp.
I have a lot of hardships. Why do you have hardships?
Ever since I was born here, I've had hardships. Hardships... means I must come out here to sell these things.
If I had money, I would sell other things.
But rich people have their own hardships.
Now, Selling like this raised my children and they all have careers. Two of them have families.
Really? Two families.
One graduated and works in a library.
But do they help you out? What? Help you out? No!
No, I don't have a desire for my children to help me.
Now, they work and have a salary, and I still sell here and can take care of myself.
I'm not old yet... I can still work. This year, may I ask, how old are you?
I'm 50. 50? Uhh that's young.
When me and the misters married, we lived in the countryside, and then came up here to buy a house.
And I started selling and raised my children and they all have careers.
That's good.
Now, I still help my children. I understand.
They make money, one is a teacher. One works with cars, he opened up a shop.
And my youngest one, born in 1992, now he's a librarian.
So, I'm done. I sell this and take care of my husband and I.
Alright, this lady is talking too much... KyleLe.net
