We have a small bush near Laligurans municipality-2 Vasantpur of Tehrathum. Even if it is a bush, it is a palace for me. At first, six of us lived in a four-room mud hut. Now the son has gone abroad. The eldest grandson has also moved to Madhesh for his studies. So there are only four people in the house now.

We have a house and a family, but we don't have the necessary expenses to run the same house and family. So my husband and I have run a small shop to make a living . From there, we are making a living by selling hot drinks, pani puri and other junk food. Running a big store requires a lot of investment. We don't have that much investment. That's why we buy goods in the morning and sell them in the afternoon. In this way, we get the same amount of income in the evening after having customers cry all day, so we run household expenses. 

Now the shop is earning 15,000 to 20,000 per month. Income and expenses are equal. Rather than spending the day sitting there, the sale of Pani Puri has cost Zenten. It takes 5,000 to get the shop equipment . If you have a business like that, if you invest 5000, you will earn up to 15000 . If there is no business, sometimes we have to raise investment. Son sends 10,000 per month from abroad. That money comes in handy when you are in trouble. Again, the education expenses of grandchildren had to be paid.

grandson's education expenses are high . 5,000 monthly bills only need to be paid . Adding books, clothes and other expenses also reaches 10,000 . Granddaughter's monthly bill comes to 1 thousand. He also spends more on books, clothes etc. Daughter-in-law is a housewife . He has no income . 

Now I am 55 years old . On the other hand, there are two granddaughters in the house along with the old man. Children's education costs a lot. Eldest grandson Itahari is studying in 11th standard living with his relatives . Granddaughter has just reached 1st grade in boarding school . Our health keeps getting messed up . Babies also get sick . Now, along with children's education, health treatment is also being spent. After reading, more is spent on books, paper, pens, clothes and food. 

Sometimes I want to eat something delicious . You don't have money when you want it. At that time, you have to be calm. We change a new dress during the festival . On the other hand, because it is cold in the mountains, we wear warm clothes more. From next year, husband Weg Bahadur will also reach the age of getting old age allowance. Such an allowance will give a little relief that ! 

The husband was previously a mechanic who made TV, radio and clocks . Now that profession is in crisis. TV, radio and watch have been eaten by mobile. My husband's job was also taken away . Now he also helps me. Earnings are small . There are many problems. I think that the education expenses of children could be reduced. However, private boarding and college education is expensive. I feel like I could reduce expenses every day . But what is the cheapest thing in the market? Expensiveness has ruined us poor and sad people. 

We don't have any money to spend. Sometimes it hurts a lot to remember the steep journey of sorrow. They worry about the future of their children and grandchildren. Who will tell that pain? There is no support for happiness and sorrow except the husband.
