After doing the math, Tang Xianfang couldn't help but feel a little sad. She was hoping to buy her own house sometime in the future.
Currently, her monthly salary is just enough to support herself.
She also plans to move out and live on her own, which will add to her expenses. The money she earns from part-time jobs will help cover the costs. Apart from being increasingly tired, nothing seems to have changed.
Tang Xianfang was plunged into deep anguish.
Chang Pengfei was taken aback, and said with difficulty, "It's not necessarily like that. If you work hard, you might be able to buy your own house before the housing prices skyrocket!"
He's not feudal anymore. In the past, he would have said that women don't need their own houses; they'll have houses when they get married.
Each girl in their family has her own house. When the younger sister gets a little older, her mother will arrange for her to have one too. If Tang Xianfang has the means, she can buy one if she wants; if she doesn't, there's nothing she can do.
Chang Pengfei's words did nothing to comfort her; Tang Xianfang felt as if he had just farted!
For her to want to buy a house given her current situation is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Chang Pengfei quickly said, "Think outside the box. You can't just live on a fixed salary. You need to find a way to increase your income. Otherwise, you could buy goods from us and then take them to your workplace to buy more?"
Tang Xianfang works at a community health center, and the health products they bought were a perfect match.
Tang Xianfang thought about it carefully and came up with another plan: "I don't have a fixed address right now and nowhere to store my goods. How about I bring you customers and you give me a commission?"
Chang Pengfei scratched his head: "Cooperation? Then you'll have to wait for Hua Ying to come back and discuss it. I can't figure it out in a short time. Besides, I'm just here to accompany the Crown Prince in his studies. This whole mess depends on Hua Ying to handle. Only she can make the decisions!"
Tang Xianfang nodded; she had already lost hope of buying her own house.
Saving up enough money to buy a house is so difficult!
The next day, Tang Xianfang was at work when Chang Huaying called her.
I invited Tang Xianfang to come over after work.
Chang Huaying wanted to thank her for her help yesterday, and also for the cooperation she had mentioned to Chang Pengfei; these things would have to be discussed when they met.
Because she hadn't slept well the night before, Tang Xianfang, who had been listless at work, suddenly became energetic.
Putting aside what Chang Huaying said for the moment, she was more concerned about the outcome of Chang Huaying's revenge for the young woman in the department yesterday.
Tang Xianfang opened her mouth, about to ask Chang Huaying a question, but suddenly stopped. Their relationship was clearly not that far off. She was really obsessed!
Tang Xianfang sighed silently, "Okay, Sister Huaying, I'll go over after work!"
"Xianfang, stop talking on the phone, there's an emergency in the ward, you need to come quickly..."
"Okay, I'll be right there!" Tang Xianfang didn't have time to say much, she quickly told Chang Huaying and then ran towards the ward.
After hanging up the phone, Chang Huaying smiled and gently shook her head.
This is a very nice girl. From Pengfei's words, the girl plans to save money to buy her own house. Chang Huaying's feelings for Tang Xianfang are growing stronger.
So, adhering to the principle of helping whenever possible, Tang Xianfang will come over tonight. If the conversation goes well, we'll finalize the cooperation immediately, and the young woman can save money with peace of mind.
Tang Xianfang was extremely busy in the ward. Not only did she have to work, but she also had to deal with the difficult patients' families. They were dissatisfied with this and that. When they were sick, they wished that the doctor was a god who could easily cure them without any pain or discomfort by performing some kind of magic.
Tang Xianfang was extremely annoyed by this kind of unreasonable person!
As Tang Xianfang left the ward, she breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about the phone call she had just received as she walked back.
She's about to leave work, and she needs to figure out how to appropriately bring up her desire to collaborate with Sister Huaying...
*Slap!* A colleague patted Tang Xianfang on the shoulder and said anxiously, "Xianfang, go answer the phone quickly, it sounds like something happened at home!"
"Ah!" Tang Xianfang was immediately extremely anxious and ran over quickly.
She couldn't help but worry.
Although her family environment was suffocating and her parents never considered her needs, they never abused her.
Her father was a government official, and her family was well-off. She had a privileged life growing up. If she hadn't resented her parents for forcing her to give up her studies and rebelliously moved out of her home, she wouldn't have had to suffer at all.
"Hello! Is this Mom?" Tang Xianfang greeted the person on the other end of the phone as usual.
Tang's mother revered her husband above all else. From the day she moved out, it was Tang's mother who relentlessly called to persuade her to move back home, so as not to lose face for Tang's father.
"Mom! Do you even remember you have a mother?! I'm in the hospital because of an unfilial daughter like you!" Tang Aifang cursed rudely on the other end of the phone.
"Big sister, don't rush to scold me. Explain clearly what happened to Mom?" Tang Xianfang was in a state of panic and distress.
She didn't want to step into her suffocating family of origin for even a moment. The only person who gave her any love was her mother, who had a lot of problems and was weak and incompetent.
"I won't say anything! Why should I say anything! Can't you come back and see for yourself? You didn't even come back to see Mom when she had an accident, you're such an ingrate!" Tang Aifang yelled and hung up the phone.
Tang Xianfang was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. She asked her colleague to ask the head nurse for leave for her, as she had an urgent matter at home and had to rush back.
Her colleague found her appearance particularly frightening and quickly nodded in agreement.
Tang Xianfang had just changed her clothes and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered that she had an appointment today. She called Chang Huaying to explain the situation. Chang Huaying was very understanding and agreed to reschedule after Tang Xianfang's family matters were resolved.
Tang Xianfang readily agreed, preoccupied with her family's situation, and had no interest in anything else.
Tang Xianfang rushed home, and luckily, someone was home. Her mother, whose condition was critical, as her older sister had mentioned, was also there.
Tang's mother, with her arm in a sling, was preparing food when she saw Tang Xianfang enter. She was overjoyed and said, "You naughty child, you're finally back! I went to the market today to buy pig's trotters to nourish your brother, but I fell and broke my arm on the way. The doctor said it will take about ten days before I can move around normally. There's a ton of work to be done at home, so I asked your older sister to call you back to help. And you're back so soon!"
...
Tang Xianfang felt incredibly exhausted. Just because of this? She was terrified!
With things having come to this point, Tang Xianfang had no choice but to move back. She couldn't bear to see her mother continue doing housework with her injured hand, which would only worsen the situation.
Tang Aifang was pleased that Tang Xianfang had come back so obediently. If Tang Xianfang didn't come back, the housework wouldn't fall on her shoulders.
Mr. Tang was extremely concerned about his reputation. When Tang Xianfang returned, he wanted nothing more than to use a megaphone to tell all the gossipy women in the family compound that their family was perfectly fine and everything was going smoothly!
They were thoroughly humiliated within a few days.
This was the first time Tang Xianfang and Tang Aifang had a public fight.
The gossipy women in the family compound have come up with new stories: if an honest man gets angry, it must be because Tang Aifang has gone too far!
