Chapter 111 There's really no need to hesitate

Li Zhe was quite envious of the two people. "You two are quite cool. You're going on a long trip, and it costs a lot of money for a round trip. You really didn't hesitate at all."

Shi Luo really didn't mind spending money, because he really had it. "There's really no need to hesitate. I can afford the expenses this time. Money is meant to be spent. Once it's spent, you can earn it again. Besides, who will spend my money if I don't spend it? I'm spending this money to go back and renovate the house, so it's worth it."

Jiang Hao nodded when he heard this. "Needless to say, I'm still a little bit filial. I've got this little money from the family division, so I can buy a ticket to visit my grandparents. This will save me from being unable to afford a ticket when I run out of money. Hehe, maybe my grandpa can even reimburse me for my travel expenses after I get there."

When Xie Chen heard Jiang Hao talking about splitting up the family, he quickly said, "After you split up the family, the people in the brigade have been spreading rumors about your family splitting up. You and your brothers each got at least 600 to 700 yuan. It's been a long time, and there are still people discussing it. You should pay more attention."

Jiang Hao remained calm when he heard this and said, "How can I possibly divide so much? If I really want 600 or 700 yuan, then my family must have more than 3,000 yuan in savings to be able to divide it all.

How could my family possibly have so much savings? Although my family has many workers, they also need to spend money on social interactions, so my mother didn't ask them to hand over all their wages.

Each of them only paid a part. My family has good food, drinks, and clothes. We have a lot of big things, including several bicycles. They were all bought with money and tickets. Plus, we have many children, so the expenses are naturally high.

So our family doesn't have that much savings at all, but when the family splits up, we can still get 300 yuan each."

Li Zhe believed what he said. "That's what I said. Nowadays, few people in the city have more than 500 yuan in savings. Even if your family has many workers, it's not possible to have that much money."

Xie Chen nodded and said, "In fact, the aunties in the village have calculated your family's expenses. They figured out that each family got about three or four hundred yuan. So when some people say that your family got a lot of money when they divided the family, some people refuted it.

But for some people, three or four hundred is not a small amount, so you should be careful."

Jiang Hao said nonchalantly, "It just so happens that I'm going out to spend some money this time. If I spend it, no one will worry about it. Otherwise, it would be bad if it really attracted thieves."

"You really are..."

Xu Qianjin really didn't know what to say, so he could only say something else.

"Let's have dinner together tonight. I have a piece of beef, probably less than two pounds. I bought it at the commune this morning. Let's have hot pot together."

Jiang Hao: "Why are we eating hot pot? On this day, the pot hasn't even been lit yet, and my clothes are already soaked with sweat."

Li Zhe: "That's right. It's really hot now. I sweat all over when I move. I have no appetite because of the heat."

Xu Qianjin: "We have to eat the beef, or it will go bad."

Xie Chen thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you stir-fry the beef with green peppers? Li Zhe and I will also stew the beef ribs we bought this morning."

Shi Luo: "Then let's make some cold dishes and steam a pot of rice. We happen to have some rice at home, so we can have a good meal today."

Jiang Hao: "Eat at my house. There are too many people in your Youth League House. It's inconvenient."

When they heard this, they all nodded in agreement and stayed together until about four in the afternoon before going home to prepare dinner.

The dinner was very rich, including stir-fried beef, steak stewed with potatoes, smashed cucumbers, pickled vegetables, zucchini with sesame sauce, and rice as the staple food.

The five people were so full after eating that they sat together and drank some hawthorn water to help digestion. Then they packed up their things and went their separate ways.

Seeing that nothing was wrong, Jiang Hao said something to Shi Luo and went to Jiang Jianguo's room.

An hour later he came back with two letters of introduction.

Shi Luo looked at the date on the letter of introduction and raised an eyebrow. "Oh, two months, that's a long time."

Jiang Hao said proudly, "Of course, I am my father's biological son. This little bit of time is nothing to worry about."

Shi Luoxin was already suspicious. Even if he asked for home leave now, it couldn't exceed one month. These two months must have been begged by Jiang Hao.

But Shi Luo didn't expose Jiang Hao's words, thinking to himself, let him show off a little more.

The two of them acted quickly and Jiang Hao bought the train ticket the next day after he got the letter of introduction.

Shi Luo held two train tickets and looked at Jiang Hao packing his things. The corner of his mouth twitched a little. "The time is actually this afternoon. We are not in such a hurry. If someone didn't know, they would think we were going to run away."

Jiang Hao said as he packed his bag, "It can't be helped. Today is the only day with sleeper train tickets to Beijing. I had to ask someone to get them for me."

Shi Luo also knew that sleeper berth tickets were hard to buy these days, otherwise he wouldn't have had to sit in a hard seat when he went to the countryside. "Then your friend is quite reliable. Both sleeper berths are for the lower berth, which is not bad."
