Yan Xia is a poor bastard.
So poor that I'd rather spend every dollar I have for three days.
She earns 3,500 a month and can save 3,000 a month.
I go to the company in the morning to drink free coffee, the company cafeteria provides lunch, and I go to the supermarket in the evening to sample free food.
The house is rented in an urban village for 400 yuan a month.
As long as it rains, she will have water to wash her clothes.
She had already cut off the electricity meter at home, so she didn't have to pay a single penny.
As for phone charging
She always filled up her bottles at the company before coming home, and the same goes for the water she drank; she brought home a large cup of the company's mineral water every day.
Oh, the cup was a free gift when you scanned the QR code to add our official WeChat account.
They have truly lived up to the saying "This company is my home."
She would use the free 7-day gym trial card given away by the roadside to shower at the gym, and when she ran out of water, she would shamelessly go to the public toilet to get water to take home. Even in winter, she would still take cold showers, which is why Yan Xia was in such good health.
Because she often encountered empty bottles and cardboard boxes on her way home from get off work, she carried a large canvas bag with her every day to carry them. Her clothes were washed until they were faded, and she looked like a junk collector. No one in the company wanted to be around her and secretly laughed at her, but Yan Xia didn't care at all.
As for why she's so frugal, that's a long story.
To make a long story short...
Yan Xia is the older sister. She has a younger brother. They live in a small county town. She started working after graduating from high school because her parents wouldn't let her go to university.
The reason given was the fear that she would become wild after starting school and wouldn't come back.
Yan Xia had considered applying for a student loan, but she was locked at home, so how could she possibly get one?
She was only released by her parents after the school revoked her admission.
Then she was asked to work at a small factory near her home to save money for her younger brother to buy a house and get married.
Screw it!!
After feigning agreement, Yan Xia was released. Taking advantage of the fact that her family was asleep at night, she ran away. Whoever wants these parents can have them; she doesn't want them.
She was raised with a free-range approach from a young age, and after nine years of compulsory education, she managed to get into a top high school with full tuition waivers; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to finish high school.
Should she be asked to save money for her younger brother?
What, this younger brother was born to her?
No one should try to morally blackmail her.
Because she has no morals!
Fortunately, she had secretly saved 500 yuan over the years, otherwise she would have had to sleep on the streets if she ran away.
To realize their dream of buying a house,
Yan Xia could only try to save money. With only a high school diploma, she was doing very well to have a job that paid 3,500 yuan in such a difficult job market.
In her small hometown, waiters only earn 2,500 yuan a month.
Two years of work experience
20-year-old Yan Xia has already saved up a full 70,000 yuan.
The price of housing in this city is 20,000 yuan per square meter.
very nice,
She's saved up a toilet, so she can sleep on it from now on! She's so happy!
On this day, Lunar New Year's Eve, after the company had closed for the day.
Yan Xia was taken to a temple to burn incense by her colleagues. She didn't want to go; she thought she would rather sit in the square and watch the Spring Festival Gala.
"You really aren't going? This is a temple dedicated to the God of Wealth; I've heard it's especially effective."
"Let's go, hurry up! Otherwise, if there are too many people, the God of Wealth won't be able to help us fulfill our wishes." Yan Xia's eyes suddenly lit up, and she immediately pulled her colleague along for a run.
The biting winter wind feels like knives on your face.
But it couldn't stop Yan Xia's burning desire to make money.
Upon arriving at the temple, she received three free incense sticks.
"Yan Xia, I'm really fed up with you. What's wrong with you spending money to buy some incense? Can free incense work?"
Making Yan Xia spend money is worse than taking her life.
"What do you know? Sincerity is key."
Southeast, Northwest,
I bowed three times in each of the four directions.
The two entered the God of Wealth Temple, knelt on the cushions, and kowtowed.
[Daddy God of Wealth, please let me become rich! I'll do anything to become a rich woman, please, Daddy, my dearest Daddy, from now on you're my real father.]
You must keep your wishes in your heart; if you say them out loud, they won't come true.
My colleague took out a hundred-yuan bill and put it into the donation box.
Yan Xia's eyes widened in disbelief. "You're giving me so much?? 100 is enough to buy my life."
"Otherwise, why would the God of Wealth do things for you if you don't pay him?" Her colleague rolled her eyes at her, speechless.
Yan Xia reached into her pocket. "Who said I don't pay? I'm offering all my living expenses for tomorrow to God of Wealth."
After searching for a while, I finally found a 50-cent coin.
She proudly held it up and waved it in front of her colleagues seven or eight times.
"I'm so generous, donating so much money. I'll have to be more frugal tomorrow."
You know, you can buy a small steamed bun for 50 cents at the market. Although it's only the size of two fingers, it's sweet and delicious.
Whenever she gets her period and craves sweets, she splurges and buys one.
"I'm really impressed by you..."
Her colleagues couldn't be bothered with her anymore; Yan Xia was the stingiest person they had ever met in their lives...
Even Grandet was more generous than her.
"Let's go pray for a good marriage."
Yan Xia waved her hand. "Go by yourself. I'm not interested in this. What's the point of men? I want to be beautiful on my own. Goodbye, I'm going to the square to watch the Spring Festival Gala."
After saying that, he left his colleague behind and ran away.
Anyway, their relationship is just a sham; they're both broke. Otherwise, they wouldn't have stayed at work on New Year's Eve for triple pay.
The wind in the square was freezing, but what's a little hardship when you can watch TV for free?
The Spring Festival Gala has ended.
