Thinking about these things, the old man smiled bitterly in his heart. Thinking back to the past, he thought money was an old thing and tried every means to secretly save some money.
Even if you don't buy anything, you will feel safe.
He manages his own money now, and no one is in charge of him, and suddenly he realizes that it is just like that.
I have a lot of pension, but I don’t know how to spend it.
Fu Huaiyi returned to the car and took out a handful of money from his pocket.
"It's New Year's money from my grandfather."
Lin Yuyao took a look and asked, "Why is he giving you New Year's money at this time?"
"Uh... Actually, it's his own pocket money that he gave me. He said that a man cannot live without his own pocket money."
Lin Yuyao: “…”
I thought that the old man really loved his grandchildren the most, and he definitely didn't give the money to my older sister and younger sister.
"Do you want to save it or what?"
"Just keep the private money that Grandpa gave you."
"I take it? Do you mind if I save some of my own money?"
"Well, you used to be busy with work and didn't have time to spend money. Now it's different. You go to get off work normally and have time to spend money. You have to save some money for yourself."
There is no rush to go back. We can stay in a hotel at night and drive during the day. We can take turns and not feel tired.
Two days later, they returned to the familiar place.
Zhou Jing knew they were back, so she came over to return the keys to them.
"Is your home nice? I'll come over when I'm free and open a window for you to ventilate."
Lin Yuyao: "Sister Zhou, thank you."
"Why are you being polite? I'm just sitting here doing nothing. If there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first. You just got back and have a lot of things to sort out. I won't bother you anymore."
"Wait a minute, Sister Zhou, I brought some gifts for Tingting."
"Hey, what are you doing? I'm just helping you out a little. What gift are you bringing?"
Lin Yuyao: "Will you help us look after the house? I also want to give Tingting a gift."
It was said to be a gift for Tingting, but in fact it was a lot of gifts, including mountain products brought from home, snacks made by Aunt Qu from the Fu family, and of course, toys for the children.
Zhou Jing couldn't even take it, and kept refusing, "No, no, I can't take it."
Fu Huaiyi: "Sister Zhou, I'll help you get it."
"You must be tired after traveling for several days. Don't bother me. I... oh, I can take it."
So she left with several large bags.
Fang Qing was picking up trash downstairs when she saw Zhou Jing coming out of Lin Yuyao's apartment carrying several large bags.
Zhou Jing also saw her, paused, and then smiled and said, "I said I didn't want it, but Yuyao insisted on giving it to me. Yuyao is a very honest person. She treats me well now, saying that it's because I treated her well when she first came."
Fang Qing clenched a few bottles tightly and seemed to want to say something but stopped herself several times.
In the end, I just endured it and turned around and left.
She didn't know Lin Yuyao was back, otherwise she wouldn't have come to pick up things, even though she knew she could always find things that could be sold in this neighborhood.
In short, she felt ashamed to show her embarrassing side in front of Lin Yuyao.
"Why are you back so soon?" Lu Cong said dissatisfiedly, "You are not working now. If you don't go pick up some scraps to sell, how can this family survive?"
Fang Qing said angrily, "Doesn't Jiang Ting have a job? A whole family depends on me for their livelihood, aren't you ashamed?"
"Jiang Ting's salary is used to buy a house. The house has to be delivered in March. You know that. He has to take care of the house, the family's food and drink, everything. What do you need him to do? Do you treat him like a cow?"
"I..." Fang Qing was choked for a moment.
After a moment, he asked again: "Do we have to buy such a big one?"
Originally they didn't have to pay extra money, but they wanted a bigger house, so they had to pay for the extra space themselves.
"Will it be enough if we don't buy such a big house? Chenchen will grow up soon, won't he need his own room? When he grows up, he will have to get married, and after getting married, won't he have to have children? Where will the children live?"
Fang Qing: “…” You’re still thinking far ahead. Chenchen is only a few years old, and he has thought of this even for a child.
Don’t you think you will die?
Lu Cong said, "I won't live long. No matter how big or nice the house is, it doesn't matter to me. This is all for your future well-being. Didn't you say that your disease can be cured? After it's cured, don't you want children?"
If I give birth to a girl, won’t she have her own room in the future? Children in the city are different from those in the countryside. They cannot be raised by just giving them a nest. "
Lu Cong said a lot of things, leaving Fang Qing unable to refute.
He was a man with a very sharp tongue, and it was rare for him to say such nice things, which actually touched Fang Qing a little.
I thought his words were harsh, but I didn't expect him to actually consider them.
Fang Qing didn't argue. Seeing that it was still early, she said, "I'll go out for a walk."
Then he went out carrying a large net bag.
As soon as she left, Lu Cong said, "Old lady, your trick is still useful."
Wang Cuilan said proudly, "I guessed it right. She can endure this kind of humiliation because she hopes that we will die. If we die, she will be able to get out of this hardship."
Lu Cong was worried when talking about this matter. He sighed and said, "It's Jiang Ting... Alas!"
He shook his head and said, "Jiang Ting is no match for her. I think if the two of us are gone, Jiang Ting will be eaten up by her in no time. I will die with regrets."
"Oh, old man, please don't say that. The doctor said that you just need to take your medicine and go for regular checkups."
Lu Cong shook his head and said, "It won't get better. At most it will just take a few more days. I know this very well."
Hearing him say this, Wang Cuilan wiped away tears, "What will happen if you lose me? I won't live anymore."
"Hey, don't say such nonsense. Even if I die, I still have to live well. You have to keep an eye on Fang Qing and don't let her bully our son."
Having said that, Wang Cuilan was still so sad that she kept wiping away tears.
At this time, Lu Jiangting came back holding Wang Chenchen.
"Dad, Mom, what are you talking about?"
Seeing that Wang Chenchen was there, the two of them didn't tell the truth.
"Nothing."
"I heard you talking about life and death, Dad, your disease can be cured, don't talk nonsense."
Lu Cong smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you trying to fool me? I know whether this disease can be cured or not."
"Dad, just hold on a little longer. Once medical technology becomes advanced, it will be cured."
"Can it be developed to the point of curing cancer?"
"Yes, I can."
Lu Cong felt that maybe it would be possible in the future, but he certainly couldn't wait.
…
After the New Year, it’s time to go back to work and Fang Qing has to continue sweeping the streets.
Fang Qing previously applied for a long leave without pay, and the reason she gave was to take care of her sick father-in-law.
Lu Jiangting's work was at a critical moment at that time. Who would dare not cooperate?
Although Fang Qing's leader was very dissatisfied with her taking a long vacation, he did not dare to disapprove.
Sister Zhao has to bear the brunt of it. When there is a lot of work, the leader arranges people to work overtime to help her. When there is less work, she is alone and has to work hard to do the work of two people.
