Chapter 209: Short of Money (1/2)

Seeing Huo Tingzhou bending over, one hand on the edge of the bed, the other hand already reaching under his pillow.

Jiang Si frowned and looked over, "What are you doing?"

Huo Tingzhou didn't expect her to wake up suddenly, and his groping movements froze instantly.

It's not right to stop now, nor is it right to continue.

I could only smile awkwardly, "Did I wake you up? I...I was looking for something."

"Yeah?"

Huo Tingzhou probably didn't know that he was totally incapable of telling a lie, looking at his ears which were red as if they were about to bleed.

Jiang Si's curiosity was instantly piqued, "What are you looking for? I'll help you find it."

Huo Tingzhou wanted to struggle a little longer.

But Jiang Si didn't give him the chance. As she finished her words, her hand had already reached under the pillow.

After some searching, she pulled out a thin red seal.

The red envelope says [May you be healthy every year]

Who wrote this word? It's so hard to guess~~

Jiang Si didn't open it immediately, but asked him with a smile, "Is this for me?"

Now that they had been arrested, Huo Tingzhou had no choice but to say "yes".

Jiang Si saw all of his arrogance, and her curiosity grew even stronger.

"Give it to me, why are you taking it away secretly?"

"I..." Huo Tingzhou was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Si took in his expression and asked with a smile, "Do you regret not wanting to give it to me?"

"no."

Huo Tingzhou was about to explain, but when he looked up he met Jiang Si's slightly cunning gaze.

Realizing that his wife was teasing him, he suddenly laughed.

I'm afraid my wife knows better than he does how much money he has in his pocket.

Besides, no matter how much money it is, it’s just a token of my appreciation.

He is just being too picky.

After figuring this out, Huo Tingzhou felt relieved.

But why did he give it to her and then secretly take it away? He was too embarrassed to ask for it.

Finally, after holding it in for a long time, he could only say, "You will know when you see it for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Si became even more curious.

She opened the red envelope and took a look. Inside the red envelope there was a brand new five-yuan note and a ten-cent note.

There are also a few coins, all of which are denominations of one cent and two cents.

The total is 5.18 yuan.

This number is quite special, it sounds like something I’m going to post!

Thinking deeper, the number of them together is exactly 520.

Could it be that he wanted to express implicitly - I love you?

etc!

What are you thinking about?

Jiang Si immediately shook off those unrealistic thoughts in his mind. As a pure native, he had no idea about the online digital memes of later generations.

Suddenly she thought of that sentence again. The transfer amount can be 100 or 1000, but it cannot have zeros or integers.

Because this is all he can give.

Therefore, these 5.18 yuan is all the belongings that Huo Tingzhou has at present.

Maybe it's because people are more emotional at night, or maybe it's because of pregnancy.

On the first New Year's Eve after traveling through the book, Jiang Si's eyes were reddened by this thin red envelope.

This also scared the man next to him.

"Wife, what's wrong with you?"

Huo Tingzhou was already feeling uneasy because of his financial difficulties, and when he saw his wife looking at him with red eyes, he became even more panicked.

"The red envelope is a little small, please don't despise it." As he said this, he already began to blame himself in his heart.

"It's a lot!" In Jiang Si's opinion, the amount of money has never been a measure of the depth of one's feelings.

He was able to participate in such a special program, and use the pocket money he saved to give himself the wish of "good health every year".

This wholehearted devotion alone surpasses everything.

Lifting her head and kissing his chin, Jiang Si said seriously: "It's very thoughtful of me, but——"

But as soon as the two words came out.

Huo Tingzhou's face froze instantly as he just raised the corners of his lips.

Good-natured Jiang Si spoke immediately the next second: "I've told you so many times, our possessions are enough to last us several lifetimes, there's no need to be so clingy."

Although the tone was a bit bad, Huo Tingzhou felt like spring breeze when he heard it.

Just as she was about to say no, Jiang Si glared at her and said, "Starting next month, I'll increase your pocket money."

"Okay, thank you, wife."
