Ms. Nai said that her family is a poor household, does not work enough to eat, and poverty continues to haunt her. The couple's previous house was dilapidated, paved with bamboo and earthen walls, and leaking in the rain and wind, but the dream of building a new house for Ms. Nai's family was very distant because of poverty.
