"You, a mountain goblin, took over Jiang Manyue's identity just to earn money to go to college?"
Lu Lin looked at Jiang Manyue suspiciously. "Is being a goblin worse than being a human? Is that why you took over Jiang Manyue's identity?"
Jiang Manyue rolled her eyes at him and said, "What do you care about me? Anyway, I am Jiang Manyue now. I don't want to stay in the countryside forever. I want to make money and live a good life with my whole family."
Glancing at Lu Lin, Jiang Manyue added, "I'm talking about the Jiang family. We're getting divorced anyway. I can take good care of the elders and Jun'an before the divorce, but I won't be able to take care of them after the divorce."
Lu Lin remained silent for a few seconds before asking, "Are you sure it will always be you from now on? You won't be the same Jiang Manyue anymore?"
Jiang Manyue thought about it, and although she wasn't particularly sure, she nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, it will always be me. The original Jiang Manyue may have gone to my side."
Lu Lin was a little confused. "She went to your place? She became a monster?"
Jiang Manyue knew that she had let something slip, and quickly shook her head to deny it, "I mean, she may have left."
Lu Lin didn't pursue the matter further, but asked, "So you need to stay at the Lu family now, wait for the college entrance examination to resume, and then get into university and leave here, right?"
Jiang Manyue nodded. "You can understand it that way, but if you want a divorce now, it's fine. It just might be more troublesome. You know my mom is not easy to talk to."
Lu Lin nodded, indicating that he knew very well what kind of person Jiang Ma Miao Xianghua was.
"But she's just making a fuss. It won't be a big deal. If you want a divorce now, that's fine. It's up to you. It's fine with me anyway. Before I get into college, it doesn't matter whether I stay with the Lu family or return to the Jiang family."
Jiang Manyue finished speaking and was about to go out. "Think about it yourself. I'm going to cook."
Lu Lin didn't stop her, but just looked at her back with a thoughtful expression on his face.
His and Jiang Manyue's current ideas do not conflict. Both of them are willing to divorce or not. If they follow the ideas of the two elders and do not divorce for the time being, they can avoid a conflict.
After thinking for a long time, Lu Lin finally decided not to divorce for the time being. He let Jiang Manyue stay in the Lu family and wait for the college entrance examination to resume. She could also help him take care of the family. He would also give some compensation as compensation for Jiang Manyue taking care of the family.
For example, he can divide the allowance into three parts, one part is household expenses, which is used for the family's meals, one part is pocket money for the two elders, and the other part is compensation for Jiang Manyue.
Lu Lin didn't know how much money Jiang Manyue could earn in the black market, but his allowance was quite a lot. Even if Jiang Manyue only took one-third of it as compensation, it was almost the same as the salary of workers in the county town.
Lu Lin felt that using a worker's monthly salary as compensation for Jiang Manyue was not too little. Moreover, he would be promoted and his allowance would continue to increase, so Jiang Manyue would be able to get a little more.
As a soldier, Lu Lin certainly has a deeper understanding of policies than ordinary people. He personally believes that the resumption of the college entrance examination as Jiang Manyue mentioned is probably impossible in the next two years, and the earliest may be three or four years later.
If the college entrance examination is resumed in three or four years, his allowances and compensation within these three or four years should be able to fully support Jiang Manyue to complete college.
As for what role Jiang Manyue played in the black market, Lu Lin didn't want to delve into it. As long as Jiang Manyue was careful and didn't get caught and bring trouble to her family, he would pretend that he didn't see it.
However, Jiang Manyue herself is a spirit and has special abilities. Lu Lin felt that she should not be caught.
Lu Lin temporarily believed Jiang Manyue because he really didn't detect any bad aura from her just now. She didn't seem like someone who was deliberately trying to do bad things.
Lu Lin was thinking a lot in the room. Jiang Manyue, who went to the kitchen to cook, was also caught by Li Guifen and questioned.
"Man Yue, what happened between you two? You looked so unhappy just now. Did A Lin bully you? If he really bullied you, tell mom and I will help you deal with him!"
Li Guifen didn't know what the young couple said in the room. Although Jiang Manyue looked much better when she came out, their behavior just now was really scary. Li Guifen felt a little worried no matter how she thought about it.
After all, there was no love between them. Li Guifen also knew that Lu Lin didn't like Jiang Manyue very much, so she was worried that they wouldn't get along well and wouldn't be able to talk things out.
"It's okay, Mom. I was just tired from walking. Lu Lin walked fast, and it was quite difficult for me to follow him. There was no conflict, don't worry."
Jiang Manyue made up an excuse to fool Li Guifen, and continued cooking without caring whether Li Guifen believed it or not, without mentioning what she said to Lu Lin in the room.
Li Guifen was helpless. She couldn't chase them and ask what they two had talked about, so she had to swallow her worries and go to wash rice and cook.
After lunch, Jiang Manyue and Lu Lin returned to the house together, and Lu Lin told Jiang Manyue what he had thought of.
"I'm thinking that since both sets of elders don't want us to divorce right away, let's not divorce for now. You can stay at home to take care of them and Jun'an, and I'll give you a portion of the allowance as compensation. When the college entrance exams resume and you're admitted to university, you can use the money to pay for your tuition."
Lu Lin was quite sincere, and Jiang Manyue was quite satisfied with the plan he proposed.
She didn't know how much Lu Lin's allowance was. Although she was currently receiving household funds from Li Guifen, if it could be divided clearly, no matter how much or how little, it would still be an income.
And by doing this, Lu Lin made it an equal exchange between them. She helped take care of the family, and Lu Lin subsidized her financially, so no one owed anyone anything.
Seeing that Jiang Manyue agreed, Lu Lin continued, "My allowance is one hundred and twenty yuan and thirty-two cents a month. I keep five yuan for my travel expenses and other expenses. The remaining one hundred and fifteen yuan can be divided into three parts, which is about thirty-eight yuan each."
Jiang Manyue raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that Lu Lin, who was quite young, would have such a high allowance. One month's allowance was equivalent to a worker's three-month salary.
"I will send it back in two parts. Thirty-eight yuan will be sent to Mom as pocket money for the two elders, and the rest will be sent to you for household expenses and as a personal allowance."
Jiang Manyue had no objection to this division. Now she was the one who went to buy household goods, so it was reasonable to give her all the household money.
"Okay, then it's settled. I'll help you take care of your family at home, and you can work hard outside. It's a mutually beneficial partnership between the two of us."
