Jiang Si succinctly stated, "Settle the accounts."
After saying that, she pointed to the wardrobe, "By the way, could you help me take the boxes off the top?"
The box contains the wedding gifts received and the "change of address fee" given during the toasting ceremony.
Her mother-in-law gave her everything back then, and Jiang Si hasn't even been accounted for yet.
"good."
As they were talking, Huo Tingzhou picked up a pillow from the bed and placed it behind Jiang Si.
After taking the box down, he pressed on her shoulders and neck as he spoke.
"You've been sitting in the room for over half an hour, don't you want to get up and move around?"
"What do you need calculated? I'll calculate it for you."
"No need," Jiang Si shook her head.
Since entering her late pregnancy, she noticed that Huo Tingzhou had become unusually anxious.
Normally, I only need to furrow my brow slightly, or turn over in my sleep in the middle of the night.
He would instinctively ask, "Honey, are you feeling unwell? Should we go to the hospital?"
Needless to say, Huo Tingzhou took care of all the housework.
Also, I don't know where he got the knowledge from these past two days.
The tables and benches in the house, wherever there are sharp corners or edges.
He wrapped everything up in cotton cloth.
Jiang Si was puzzled at the time, as the baby was still more than two months away from being born.
Even if they are born, they won't be able to walk and run until they are over one year old, right?
Is it too early to pack these now?
However, Huo Tingzhou said that these were not for the children.
If it's not for the children, then it must be for her.
Jiang Si was speechless.
But what happened next was even more speechless. Last night, she casually mentioned it.
I need to prepare the hospital bag in advance.
Huo Tingzhou was quick; he packed his hospital bag early this morning.
As a result, Jiang Si almost miscarried after reading it.
Those who knew it was a maternity bag, but those who didn't might have thought it was a housewarming party!
Thinking about all this, Jiang Si frowned and looked over, "I'm fine, don't be so nervous."
But the moment she finished speaking, Jiang Si knew she was in trouble.
It’s over!
That brow shouldn't be furrowed.
Sure enough, those two familiar, jarring phrases immediately rang in my ears.
Fortunately, Jiang Si reacted quickly and covered his mouth.
"Alright, you're not allowed to say anything more. I have something important to discuss with you."
"Okay, go ahead."
Huo Tingzhou responded, but his hands didn't stop moving.
Seeing this, Jiang Si went with him.
She opened the box and glanced inside. There were many red seals inside, and Jiang Si roughly counted them.
The change of address fee was probably agreed upon beforehand; each of the grandparents, parents, and third uncle gave 200 yuan.
The "change of address fee" is doubled, which adds up to 2000 yuan.
The eldest brother, the second brother, and the fourth brother each paid 100 yuan for a room.
My uncle, aunt, and fourth uncle each gave 66 yuan.
Including the monetary gifts received, the total came to over 3,500 yuan.
Jiang Si wrote down this number and then combined it with the previous ones.
Jiang Si was momentarily surprised when she saw the numbers on the abacus.
Well, she was quite lucky.
Whether before or after transmigrating into the book, she never worried about money.
But I never expected that their family was so wealthy.
Huo Tingzhou was also surprised, "Is this the family's savings?"
Jiang Si nodded.
The first sum of money was given to her by Shen Xiuwen and Lin Yueru when they tricked her into going to the countryside. The principal plus interest amounted to quite a lot.
The job at the cotton mill was sold twice, the first time for 1000 and the second time for 1220.
Later, when she moved out of the house, she found the savings of Lin Yueru and her daughter. The two savings books together contained a lot of principal and interest.
The fourth item is all the wealth that Huo Tingzhou handed over when he came to Qiongzhou Island; there are several pieces of it here.
The fifth penny was given to her by Huo's mother when she came over.
The dowry is 888 yuan, the settling-in allowance is 2000 yuan, the cost of the "three turns and one sound" (a traditional Chinese house) plus 72 pieces of furniture is 1200 yuan, totaling 4088 yuan.
Grandparents also gave Huo's mother a savings book, and together with the return gifts from the other three branches of the family, the total amount was more than 2,500 yuan.
The sixth payment came from the family division. Jiang Si didn't want the 30,000 yuan savings account; she only took 6,000 yuan.
The seventh item is income from templates in the facial features database, which is 80,000.
The eighth item was the dowry of 68,000 yuan given by the third uncle.
Then there was the compensation from the Red Cross Committee, which came in two parts. The first was over 5,000 yuan, and the second was something Huo Tingzhou helped her get back, which amounted to several yuan.
Finally, there was the New Year's money that my third uncle and his family of four received during the Spring Festival, totaling 2,000 yuan.
As for the expenses, they were all paid from Huo Tingzhou's salary and bonuses during the Chinese New Year period.
And this isn't even all spent yet.
So after calculating, Jiang Si now has a total of over 288,000 yuan in savings and cash.
If interest is included, it might be even more.
After all, the interest rate on these deposits is quite high.
A home belongs to two people, except for the secret of space that cannot be revealed.
Jiang Si told Huo Tingzhou everything that was left, including her own plans.
"This is all the savings our family has right now. I plan to divide this money into three parts."
"We'll keep that extra eight thousand for our daily living expenses."
"The child is young and won't cost much. Your salary should be enough."
"You can donate the remaining 80,000 to the Fourth Division for me."
She earned the 80,000 yuan herself, so Jiang Si used it with extra confidence.
