88. Women still need to save some private money
After the meal, Gu Yan'an was still the one who cleaned up the dishes, while Jiang Shiyue chatted with Ruan Qiuhua and his wife in the yard.
Ruan Qiuhua was also thinking about Jiang Shiyue's inconvenient legs and feet, otherwise she might have gone out for a walk.
Because when she was at home, Ruan Qiuhua was used to going out for a run after meals to help digest the food.
After all, it is said that if you take a walk after a meal, you will live to be ninety-nine.
After Gu Yan'an finished his work in the kitchen, he made tea for the few people and brought it out, then chatted with them.
However, most of the conversation was done by the Jiang family, and he listened from the side, saying a word or two from time to time. The atmosphere was surprisingly harmonious.
Finally, Jiang Sheng yawned, and Ruan Qiuhua stopped talking. "I think it's getting late, so let's go to bed early."
Jiang Shiyue looked at the time. It was indeed not early. It was already past nine o'clock and almost ten o'clock.
You know, in the countryside, people usually go to bed around eight o'clock.
The main reason is that there were no entertainment facilities in that era, and after eating there was nothing to do but sleep.
So Jiang Shiyue did not stop him. Thinking about how Jiang Sheng and Jiang Boyan did not take a bath yesterday because they were drunk, he immediately said, "Ayan has already heated up the bath water. It's in the pot."
Gu Yan'an stood up immediately after hearing this and said, "I'll go and help you fight!"
Without waiting for them to say no, he directly carried the two buckets under the eaves into the kitchen and filled two buckets of water. "Come on, I'll take them to you."
Thinking that the Jiang family would come over, the rabbit farm built several toilets for convenience.
After all, if there are more rabbits in the future, we might have to hire workers to help feed them, and there won’t be enough toilets.
Seeing Gu Yan'an leaving with two buckets, Jiang Shiyue turned to look at Ruan Qiuhua with a little apology on her face, "Mom, if you want to take a shower, you can only wait a while. There are only those two buckets at home."
In fact, I have thought about buying a few more buckets, but there are already two at home. Buying a few more will be a waste when the Jiang family leaves.
Ruan Qiuhua shook her head: "It's okay, I didn't sweat much today, it doesn't matter whether I wash or not."
And it’s not like she can’t wait. After all, both the father and son take baths very quickly, just like they are taking a battle bath.
When Gu Yan'an left with the bucket, Jiang Sheng and Jiang Boyan also stood up and left. At this time, only Ruan Qiuhua and Jiang Shiyue were left in the yard.
Jiang Shiyue took out the money and stuffed it into Ruan Qiuhua's hand, "Mom, why don't you just keep the money."
Ruan Qiuhua's face darkened. "Why are you collecting it? Just take it yourself."
Before Jiang Shiyue could speak, he continued, "Xiaoyue, you have to know that no matter how good men are to us, we women still have to keep some private money in our hands."
In the surprised eyes of Jiang Shiyue, he returned the money, held Jiang Shiyue's hand, and said earnestly: "You can't make money now, and Xiao Gu is the only one who makes money at home. Although he puts all the money with you, it is not your own money. You have to report to him when you want to buy something. You can't buy things he doesn't allow you to buy. If your living expenses increase, he may accuse you of not managing the household well."
He paused and glanced outside the courtyard. "But if you have money in your own hands, you can buy whatever you want. You don't have to look at his face or care about anyone. Just be happy."
Jiang Shiyue had never expected Ruan Qiuhua to say such a thing, and was so shocked that she was speechless for a moment.
You have to know that in this era, people of Ruan Qiuhua's age group only think about saving money for their husbands and spend every penny wisely.
In addition to this, you are not allowed to have your own private money. Everything should be put first for the family and you cannot be extravagant or wasteful.
Seeing that Jiang Shiyue didn't speak for a long time and just stared at him, Ruan Qiuhua asked with a bit of amusement: "Are you stupid?"
Jiang Shiyue shook her head, "No, I just didn't expect you to say such a thing."
Ruan Qiuhua looked at Jiang Shiyue in surprise, "Jiang Shiyue, you are actually more conservative than a middle-aged man like me?"
Jiang Shiyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't explain.
In fact, she really wanted to tell Ruan Qiuhua: "Mom, I actually opened a clothing store, and I can make a lot of money every day."
If I really told Ruan Qiuhua, I would have to go through a lot of trouble to explain it to her, which would be too tiring.
The main reason was that she also knew what Ruan Qiuhua had just said, so she didn't let Gu Yan'an know how much money she had.
She only told Gu Yan'an about it once, last time. Gu Yan'an never asked about it afterwards, and she didn't mention it either.
Because she knew that Ruan Qiu could change anything, but the private money in her hands would not change.
No matter how good the relationship between two people is now, there may come a day when the relationship goes bad.
This can also be considered as leaving a way out for yourself.
I just didn't expect that Ruan Qiuhua actually had the same idea as me. I can only say that people with higher education are different.
In addition, Ruan Qiuhua also works, so his level of thinking is much higher than that of ordinary people.
Jiang Shiyue shook her head. "Not really. I just think your idea is too avant-garde. Aren't you afraid of dad finding out?"
Ruan Qiuhua raised her eyebrows proudly, "How could your father not know? The family expenses are all paid with your father's salary. I saved all my salary. Even your father doesn't know how much money I saved."
Jiang Shiyue looked at Ruan Qiuhua curiously, "How much money do you have saved now?"
She didn't expect that the situation at home was still like this, which surprised her a little.
What surprised her even more was that Jiang Boyan actually agreed.
Ruan Qiuhua stretched out her hand and pinched the tip of Jiang Shiyue's nose unhappily, "Anyway, it won't be a problem to support you."
Jiang Shiyue pursed her lips, "They say a daughter who is married off is like water spilled, and sure enough, after getting married, she doesn't even want to tell me how much savings she has."
After that, he sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "I understand. I am an outsider now and don't deserve to know."
Ruan Qiuhua glared at Jiang Shiyue helplessly, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid!"
However, he still revealed a little about his savings to Jiang Shiyue, which shocked Jiang Shiyue so much that he was speechless.
After a long while, he sighed: "My God, you are really good at saving!"
Ruan Qiuhua snorted coldly, "You didn't want to study medicine with me at the beginning. If you had studied medicine with me, I can guarantee that you would have made no less money than me."
Jiang Shiyue scratched his head awkwardly, "It's okay, it's not too late now."
After that, he made a promise to Ruan Qiuhua, "When we can go back to the city, you can teach me step by step then."
This was the first time Jiang Shiyue agreed, which surprised Ruan Qiuhua. "You'd better keep your word."
