These words were spoken with great conviction, and Ye Beiping's expression was equally resolute.
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyi smiled, turned around and hugged her husband, whispering, "I believe you. Go to sleep, you won't feel hot when you're asleep."
"good."
...
The two of them held each other tightly throughout the night, and both of them were sweating profusely.
Ye Beiping took a shower as soon as he got up in the morning.
Su Xinyi wanted to take a shower, but Ye Beiping stopped her.
He specially prepared a basin and towel, saying, "Just use this to wipe yourself. It's easy to catch a cold if you take a bath now. Don't forget you're not alone now."
"Oh." Su Xinyi pouted as she looked at the washbasin and towel in front of her.
Who wouldn't want to take a cool shower on a hot summer day? But after glancing at her abdomen, she could only sigh for a while and obediently wipe her body with a towel.
When Su Xinyi finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, she saw a sumptuous breakfast already laid out on the dining table.
It's still meat buns, soy milk, and fried dough sticks.
Seeing this, she frowned: "Beiping, you don't need to buy breakfast anymore. Just cook some porridge and have some cold dishes with it."
How could Ye Beiping, who was fiddling with the bowls and chopsticks, possibly agree? He immediately shook his head and said:
"That won't do. Leftovers spoil easily in the summer. I threw them away last night."
"But how much money would it cost to buy meat buns every day?" Su Xinyi felt extremely distressed.
After renting a house and spending two hundred yuan to hire a nanny, Ye Beiping probably doesn't have much money left.
I still need to go to Wencheng. How can I buy goods and do business if I don't have money?
They don't know if the business will be successful. If the business fails, the two adults can endure the hardship, but what will happen when the child is born?
Suddenly, the worry of not having enough money overwhelmed my mind.
Su Xinyi sat down, looked at the meat bun in front of her and pouted, "Why don't we just not hire a nanny? I can manage on my own. You're hiring a nanny and feeding us meat every day. Where are we going to get that much money?"
"Besides...and didn't you say you were going to bring your mother and sister to the city? Everything costs money, and they can't stay here when they come to the city, can they?"
Listening to Su Xinyi's rambling on about money, I felt like a little sparrow.
Ha ha!
Ye Beiping chuckled coldly, then stretched out a hand and counted on his fingers, saying, "Wife, let me do the math for you. Even if we eat meat buns every morning, three for you and three for me, that's six. At one cent each, that's sixty cents. Even with soy milk and fried dough sticks, it won't exceed one dollar."
"I buy a pound of meat for lunch, and then cook some other vegetables, which costs at most two yuan. Dinner also costs two yuan, so my daily food expenses are five yuan, which is one hundred and fifty yuan a month."
hiss!
Hearing Ye Beiping's calculations, Su Xinyi gasped and frowned, interrupting, "Who eats more than a hundred yuan a month? Their salary is only forty or fifty."
"Honey, don't panic."
Ye Beiping continued counting on his second finger: "Including the nanny, I'll spend two hundred yuan a month. I don't care how many Dad hires, just consider the extra as buying you nutritional supplements."
"Then rent, electricity, and so on, I'll say thirty yuan a month. The fixed expenses are 150 + 200 + 30, which equals three hundred and seventy yuan. And Grandma Qiu said that meals are included, so you can eat at her place in the future. Of course, we would feel embarrassed if you just ate there, so you can just pay a small food fee each month, which will save you money."
"Let's just pay for one pound of meat per meal. That way, we can share the cost of food, which will reduce our food expenses by at least a third. In other words, we might only need a few dozen yuan a month in the future."
Su Xinyi saw that Ye Beiping's calculations were clear, but they still made her feel a little uneasy.
Even if it's only a third, that's still a month's salary spent on food. How can anyone eat like that?
Before she could speak, Ye Beiping continued, "Wife, don't be fooled by how much we're spending now. You're not alone anymore. And you should trust your husband. Back in Pingba Village, I earned more than three or four hundred a month repairing radios and such. Now that we're in Hangzhou, earning money with my skills, I should be making five or six hundred a month, right?"
"this......"
Su Xinyi knew that repairing radios could indeed be profitable, but there were many people in Hangzhou who knew this skill. Could one really earn that much?
She was rather skeptical about this.
But at this point, it seemed that she couldn't argue with Ye Beiping, so she could only take it one step at a time. During breakfast, Su Xinyi kept sighing and looking worried.
As the saying goes, "With surplus grain at home, one's heart is at ease; without grain at home, one's heart is filled with anxiety."
Although they weren't at the point of running out of food, Su Xinyi's heart began to panic.
