The Sun and Yuan families lived in harmony, but the Zhan and Qian families were in dire straits.
Let’s talk about the Qian family first. Ever since they lost contact with Qian Jinling, the family’s living standard has plummeted.
Old Mrs. Qian had been in charge of the household accounts for her entire life, and anyone who needed to spend money had to consult with her. She had always been quite generous with her money to the men in the family, especially with pocket money for her son and grandson, which she had never stopped giving.
But now, seeing that no one in the family can earn money, she began to worry.
A few tens of thousands of yuan in savings is not a small amount, but living in the city requires money for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and rent alone is a considerable expense.
My son and grandson are always extravagant with their money, spending whatever we give them. Just like the incident at the restaurant in Mafang City, wasn't it caused by someone spending money without a plan?
In order to save money, she was no longer as generous as before. She gave each of them a few dollars of pocket money every day and constantly urged them to go out and earn money.
As for her family, she kept the daily food expenses within three yuan and let Qian Meijuan be responsible for arranging food and drink for the family.
Not only did Qian Meijuan not go to school, she also had to buy groceries, cook, clean the house, and do laundry every day. She was basically a free, all-around nanny.
She really wanted to die now. Of course, she didn't have the courage to die, but she was already planning how to run away from home.
Grandma gave her three yuan a day to buy food, and she had to prepare three meals a day for a family of five. This was really hard for her.
Since the old lady was reluctant to give money, she would go to the market to pick up rotten vegetable leaves, or buy cheaply processed vegetables that had already wilted.
As for meat? Since the Chinese New Year, they haven't seen any meat in their family for a long time.
The three men in the Qian family often complained about the poor food at home. Qian Jincai and Qian Longbin also attributed their lack of work to a lack of meat in their diet, leaving them with no energy for manual labor.
Old Mrs. Qian also knew that prices in the provincial capital were not cheap, so for the first time she did not blame Qian Meijuan for this matter.
Qian Meijuan secretly saved a few cents every day. In half a year, she had secretly saved dozens of yuan from her grocery money, wrapped it in several layers of plastic bags, and hid it in the toilet tank.
She knew her family members too well. Each one was lazier than the other and would never open the water tank. Even if the toilet was clogged or the water tank was not backfilling, they would just wait for her to solve these problems.
Qian Meijuan has only now truly experienced the saying "a child with a mother is like a treasure." In the past, when her mother was at home, she was also taken care of in every possible way.
But at the time, she felt her grandmother was better than her mother, anyone in the family was better than her mother. Grandma managed the money, and no one else ever hit or scolded her, only her mother would lose her temper. And, crucially, they were poor. So, at the time, she thought her mother was worthless.
She is now eleven years old. She remembers that some girls in the village went out to work at the age of thirteen. In two years, she will also be able to go to work and leave home completely.
She also wanted to call the police. If they could find her aunt, they could surely help her find her mother. With her mother, she wouldn't have to worry about being bullied anymore.
Now she only hopes that she can grow up safely. Everyone says that she is as beautiful as her aunt. When she grows up, she wants to find a rich man to marry like her aunt.
But she would not be as stupid as her aunt, who continued to support her parents' family after getting married, letting her family suck their blood and eventually breaking up her own family.
Originally, her aunt had promised to find a school for her and continue to support her education. However, due to a series of unscrupulous actions by her family, she lost the opportunity to go to school.
She hated her current family members. They only treated her as a little slave. None of them loved her.
When she grows up and becomes capable, she will definitely not care about their life or death.
Qian Longbin and Qian Jincai hadn't made any progress in six months. However, they spent all day figuring out how to hook up with a rich woman, and surprisingly, they finally found someone who was willing to spend money on them.
It was said that the rich woman also owned a factory and had affairs with her husband. She fell in love with the young, strong, tall and handsome Qian Longbin. After giving him two hundred yuan, he happily followed her to get a room.
The rich woman looked to be in her forties and was quite well-off. She wasn't particularly pretty, but she wasn't ugly either.
In Qian Longbin's opinion, he had been looking forward to sex for a long time, and this woman was not annoying. The key point was that not only did he not have to pay, but she even gave him money. No matter how he looked at it, he was not at a loss.
After he hooked up with the middle-aged woman, he made love with her in the hotel room and served her very comfortably.
The key point is that he finally got such a rich sponsor, and the woman was very happy to hear him call her "sister". Before leaving, she took out a few big bills from her bag.
After Qian Longbin tasted the sweetness, it was even more impossible for him to go out and look for hard labor work.
It would be great if such a wealthy woman could develop into a long-term relationship. Unfortunately, the other party didn't intend to leave contact information, making it a one-time transaction, which Qian Longbin felt a little regretful.
As for Qian Jincai, he wasn't as "lucky" as his son. He also wanted women, but now he wasn't in the village, so women weren't so easy to fool. Not to mention his desire to find a woman who would spend money on him, that was just wishful thinking.
Xu Jinfeng's two sons were born safely. He let Li Yujia and Zhang Yan finish their confinement in another house of his, paid them the bill, and wanted to send them away. In the future, he would bring the two children back to his villa to raise them.
