She finally pulled out twenty yuan from her pocket and threw it straight at Qiao Zaoyao's face. "Didn't you want money? I'll give you twenty yuan every month from now on. You should be content."

After saying that, she put on a kind expression and went to Qiao Nianxi's room.

Li Wenxiang's eyes remained fixed on the twenty yuan.

This was also Qiao Zaoyao's line of sight. Finally, Qiao Zaoyao slowly squatted down and picked up the twenty yuan.

She put the twenty yuan under her pillow, and throughout the whole process, Li Wenxiang only sensed the calmness in Qiao Zaoyao's heart.

But she was also somewhat anxious.

Qiao Zaoyao knew she couldn't come up with a solution at home.

She ran into Qiao Yingzhuo before she went out. When he saw Qiao Zaoyao's appearance, he hesitated and said, "Yaoyao."

Qiao Zaoyao only glanced at him, without saying a word, and walked past Qiao Yingzhuo.

Li Wenxiang was shocked to realize that Qiao Yingzhuo had always gone along with her unfair treatment of Qiao Zaoyao over the years. She didn't know when Qiao Zaoyao stopped talking to Qiao Yingzhuo and even treated him as if he were invisible.

Qiao Zaoyao looked around the street for temporary workers, but as the end of the year approached, no one seemed to want any, or they had already found someone else.

Qiao Zaoyao sat on a bench in the small park, thinking about how to save money from her already meager living expenses.

"I can work after school starts, but I won't get paid until next month, and I don't know anyone here." Qiao Zaoyao seemed to have fallen into a state of despair.

She didn't seem to notice that someone was standing behind her, listening to her mutterings.
