Liang Wenjing was woken up by the urge to urinate when it was almost dawn. When she opened the door, she saw Luo Juan standing in the living room with red eyes. She was startled and woke up immediately.
"Mom, what are you doing standing in the living room in the middle of the night?"
"There was such a loud noise at night and you didn't even get up?" Luo Juan was about to get angry, but then she thought that it would be better if her daughter didn't see such an embarrassing thing with her own eyes, otherwise it would affect her image in her daughter's mind.
"What's that noise? Oh! I vaguely heard it, but I was too sleepy to wake up."
"Forget it." It's better not to know.
Liang Wenjing came out of the bathroom and suddenly remembered that her plan tonight was to get the property certificate. She had actually forgotten all about it, but her mother must have gotten it just now because she was standing alone in the living room.
No wonder she heard the noise while she was half asleep!
Now that I have the property certificate, there is no need to be polite to Guan Wanwan and the others.

The next day, the four of them washed up and went out in a strange atmosphere.
Because there is no one to cook, we have to go out to eat breakfast. The song and dance troupe has a special canteen, and we can eat very cheap meals for a small fee.
But Guan Wanwan hadn't officially started work yet, so she wasn't eligible to eat. She had no choice but to separate from Luo Juan and take Guan Jibai to a breakfast shop on the street. They each had a serving of white rice porridge and a fried dough stick.
The price was several times higher than in the countryside. A breakfast for two people cost one yuan and fifty cents.
Both mother and daughter gasped in distress. They were almost out of money and it would take more than a month for their salary to be paid.
Guan Jibai cursed Luo Juan inwardly for being stingy. She said nice things, but in reality, she wouldn't even let him eat a bite of food. She even made dinner last night just to make it easier to drug him.
After leaving the breakfast shop and passing the Friendship Store, Guan Wanwan spotted a pair of white, mid-heeled leather shoes. Made of lambskin, they were very fashionable and hard to find in the countryside. Without hesitation, she bought them for her daughter.
The price of the small leather shoes is fifteen yuan, which is ten times the price of breakfast.
Guan Jibai couldn't help but twitch his lips. It turned out that the label of "spendthrift woman" was not wrong! She had less than 60 yuan on her.
Forty yuan of it was borrowed from men who wanted to be her stepfathers when she was in the countryside.
The food, drinks and transportation cost more than twenty yuan along the way, and the remaining money was just enough for the mother and daughter to fill their stomachs and avoid starving to death.
Now I have spent another fifteen dollars. Will I have to beg next month?
However, Guan Jibai thought so in his heart but didn't say a word.
Because she is also a spendthrift woman!
She had to buy what she needed, and she also had to buy what she shouldn't. On the train back, she had already made a comprehensive plan for making money. After all, she had been a celebrity in her past life, had social circles, and knew a few foreign languages, so making some extra money was still possible.
If all else fails, she can still cling to her father from her previous life!
Guan Jibai had already calculated this silently in his mind. In 1985, his father was still a junk collector, hanging around the antique market, riding a broken tricycle through the streets and alleys selling pirated tapes, and dealing in supplies.
He is also a native Beijinger and has a certain network of contacts.
At this time, she went to curry favor with her father and asked him to help introduce some opportunities to earn extra money.
After buying the shoes, the mother and daughter walked to the dance troupe with great anticipation. As long as they could go back to work at the troupe, they would not starve to death next month.
The Municipal Song and Dance Troupe is located in the bustling Gulou District, next to the famous National Centre for the Performing Arts.
It is every actor's dream and honor to be able to perform on stage there. Unfortunately, although the Municipal Song and Dance Troupe has a municipal-level sign, this is the capital, and there are national-level song and dance troupes above it.
The city song and dance troupe is not even second-rate; there are several that are more outstanding than them.
Apart from the military art troupes that are not part of the same system, the best are the National Song and Dance Troupe, the Unity Song and Dance Troupe, and the Progressive Song and Dance Troupe.
Whether it is visiting abroad, welcoming foreign guests, or participating in TV station activities, these two song and dance troupes are the lead.
