There is a kind of ability called: money ability!
As soon as Lin Xiaoman used his ability to spend money, the Wu family immediately became harmonious and prosperous.
Mrs. Wu, who had not returned home until her mother was hospitalized, came back and apologized to Lin Xiaoman as soon as she came back. "Xiaoxi, I just didn't sleep well and was a little irritable, so I got a little angry. Please bear with me. I didn't mean it. If you think my words are unpleasant, you can get angry and scold me..."
"Sister-in-law, don't say that. It's my fault. The second and third sons were too noisy..." Lin Xiaoman responded politely of course.
…
The next morning, Mrs. Wu, who was on night shift, volunteered to help take care of the baby. Brother Wu rode his motorcycle with Lin Xiaoman, and they rushed all the way to the city and went straight to the city welfare lottery center.
After following the process, the bonus was received quickly.
The total amount is more than 790,000 yuan. After paying taxes and donating money, only 600,000 yuan is left.
Along the way, Brother Wu was worried about the tens of thousands of taxes he had to pay. After a bumpy ride, it was lunch time when he returned to the Wu family.
Mr. Wu didn't have work that day, and Mrs. Wu was on night shift, so with three adults and four children at home, they could still cope.
After lunch, Wu's father asked about the money at the table. Knowing that the money had been deposited into Lin Xiaoman's bank card, he said to Big Brother Wu with a serious face, "Big Brother, you've seen your sister's situation. She's a woman with three children, and life is not easy. The lottery ticket was bought by your sister, and the money is your sister's. Don't have any ideas about it."
"Dad, what are you talking about! Am I that kind of person? Xiaoxi is rich now, and I am so happy for her! How could she have her eyes on the money?" Brother Wu immediately retorted.
After these two sentences, Wu Dasao's face turned unhappy. In her opinion, her sister-in-law was eating and drinking for free at home and still needed her mother-in-law to help take care of the children. So she should give some money to supplement the family expenses. But Wu Dasao was not so shameless and could not bring herself to ask for it.
"Dad, we are all family, it's too formal to say that. I was able to get through these days thanks to the help of Mom, Dad, and Big Brother and His Wife. Now that I've won the lottery, it's time for me to help the family." Lin Xiaoman quickly took over the conversation and tactfully cooperated in the duet.
Father Wu said this on purpose for his elder sister-in-law to hear. It would be fine if she just listened to it, but if she really didn't give any money at all, how could her elder brother survive?
So, "Mom, Dad, Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law, I've caused you so much trouble since I got back from my divorce. I really feel guilty."
"What are you talking about? This is your home. It doesn't matter if it's a trouble or not. We are a family and should help each other." Brother Wu said hurriedly.
"Brother, I know. You're so kind to me. I'm really happy. If it weren't for you, the four of us, mother and daughter, would have been living on the streets now..." Lin Xiaoman spoke very emotionally and gave a touching and heartfelt thank you. How can people live in harmony with each other? They have to pretend and tell lies!
To be honest, they are all idiots.
After a lot of blah blah, Lin Xiaoman got to the point. "Here's what I think: Mom and Dad are old, and they deserve to enjoy a peaceful life. My three children are too young, and I really can't handle it all by myself. Dad, you don't have to do odd jobs anymore. You and Mom should help me out. I'll give you 500 yuan each per month as childcare expenses, and I'll also give you another 1,000 yuan per month for household expenses and food."
In this era of touch-tone phones, the monthly salary in a small town was only about 600 yuan. 500 yuan was enough to hire a nanny, and 1,000 yuan was enough to feed the whole family for a month.
"Oh, we are all family. Why bother asking for money? We all live in the same house. It's not a big deal to help out." Mother Wu made an excuse.
"Mom, of course I do. You and Dad are old and still have to worry about me. It's my responsibility to pay for this." Lin Xiaoman said sincerely.
"Since Xiaoxi said so, just accept it." Father Wu glanced at Mrs. Wu and said something. He knew very well that if they wanted to live together, his daughter must have contributed some money.
"Okay, Mom will save it." Mother Wu agreed without hesitation. She knew in her heart that if her daughter didn't pay, or if she didn't accept the money, her daughter-in-law would probably make a big fuss.
After the parents had agreed, Lin Xiaoman looked at Mrs. Wu again and asked, "Sister-in-law, how much do you earn every month?"
"I make 800 yuan a month."
Mrs. Wu was secretly happy that the family had an extra 2,000 yuan in income. When she heard Lin Xiaoman's question, her eyes immediately lit up. She then complained, "Oh, the work in my factory is really tiring, and I often have to work overtime every few days. I really can't stand it. If it weren't for Liangliang, I wouldn't want to do it anymore."
Lin Xiaoman immediately understood her hidden meaning and said tactfully, "How about this, sister-in-law, there's still work to do in the fields and a lot of housework at home. I'm afraid my parents are too busy to handle it. Why don't you just stop working? Just consider it my treat. 1,000 yuan a month. If the factory raises wages in the future, I'll give you a raise too."
"Oh, little sister, this is too much. I don't feel comfortable saying this!" Mrs. Wu said she was embarrassed, but she was very happy in her heart.
So, 3,000 a month is 36,000 a year! After deducting expenses, I can save at least 20,000!
You have to know that the couple works so hard and earns less than 20,000 yuan a year, not to mention how much they spend.
Mrs. Wu was very happy because her income increased a lot.
"Yes, yes, sister-in-law, please help me. But I have to be frank. Sister-in-law, I only want you to help me for three or four years at most. Once the children go to kindergarten, it will be easier. Mom and Dad can handle it with a little help."
Lin Xiaoman's meaning was very clear. Her behavior was almost like buying peace with money. It was impossible for her to keep giving money like this. It was only for the first three or four years when the child was too young.
"Okay, okay, sister-in-law, I know. When my nieces grow up and go to school, I will find a job for myself when I have free time. There is plenty of work in the factory anyway." As smart as Sister-in-law Wu was, she naturally understood it. 1,000 per month, 12,000 a year, and 36,000 in three years. It means she just needs to take care of the children and do housework at home. This money is almost a gift to her!
There are no conflicts if you have money, Mrs. Wu assured cheerfully, "Don't worry, little sister. I'm an experienced person and have experience in raising children."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
…
In the afternoon, Brother Wu went to work. The newly appointed 'nanny', Sister Wu, was very active in doing the housework. Father Wu took his grandson Wu Liang and eldest granddaughter for a walk in the village. Mother Wu helped Lin Xiaoman take care of the children. As soon as the door was closed, Mother Wu started nagging again, "Are you stupid? Although your sister-in-law is a bit talkative and has a bad temper, she is not a black heart. 2,000 yuan a month is enough to shut her up. With this little money, she will definitely not make a fuss. You still give her 1,000 yuan a month? You, you really make me die. Although the bonus is 600,000 yuan, you can't just live off it! You have three daughters, who don't need to spend money..."
