Chapter 1536:
Follow suit Such expensive rent is already half of Ding Jiayi's monthly living expenses: "Don't compare everything in Pingcheng with the capital. I've said it before, with the same living expenses of 1,000 yuan, the quality of life in Pingcheng is completely incomparable to that in the capital."
"Five, five times?" This time, Ding Jiayi was completely speechless. In her life, except for the few years when she had just divorced Qiao Dongliang and had to support Qiao Zijin in high school, she later returned home and lived a leisurely life, especially the year when Qiao Nan started to give her living expenses.
Ding Jiayi, who has work experience, knows that if she didn't have a daughter like Qiao Nan, even if she participated in the work, she would not be able to have such a nest in the capital. The monthly rent is more than 500 yuan. When she was working before, she could only earn 200 or 300 yuan a month at most.
In other words, her salary can't even pay the rent, not to mention her own food and drink.
"That's good to understand. If there is no problem now, I will give you this month's living expenses in front of you. After that, I don't need to take care of you anymore, right?" Qiao Nan put 1,000 yuan in cash on the table and handed it to Ding Jiayi. After completing this last step, Qiao Nan prepared to leave.
Qiao Nan ignored Qiao Zijin, who had been looking around the room, as if she had never seen this person.
After Qiao Zijin looked around the room, she looked at Grandpa Mao on the table, her eyes lit up: "Mom..." Qiao Zijin wanted to say that she was short of money recently, could she lend her the thousand first, and she would pay it back later.
Unfortunately, there is no mother and daughter in front of money. Ding Jiayi was one step faster than Qiao Zijin and took the money: "Okay, I got this month's living expenses, and I won't ask you for it again."
When she was in Pingcheng, she had good food and drink, and she could save most of the money in a month. But after arriving in the capital, after a month, this thousand yuan would not be much more.
Ding Jiayi never let Qiao Zijin touch the money before, and now this thousand yuan may become tight for Ding Jiayi, and it is even more impossible for Ding Jiayi to let Qiao Zijin touch it: "It's okay, you can go back. You are so busy at work, I won't bother you. But can I ask where your father lives? Is he also in this community? Actually..."
Even if she and Lao Qiao are divorced, they are still the original couple, and whether to remarry or not will be discussed later. Instead of letting Qiao Nan rent two houses, it is better to let her live with Lao Qiao, and Qiao Nan can save the rent of one house. If she lived with Old Qiao, Qiao Nan would have given her a bigger house, right? She
was used to living in a bigger space, and now she was living in such a small place. Ding Jiayi felt suffocated.
"Dad doesn't know you're here yet. This is Dad's phone number. If you can't wait, you can contact Dad first." Apart from that, she didn't care about anything else. "
Okay." Ding Jiayi grabbed Qiao Dongliang's phone again and didn't show it to Qiao Zijin. She was worried that Qiao Zijin didn't get the money from her, and when she used this phone to contact Qiao Dongliang, she didn't know what kind of excuse she would make to coax the money out of Qiao Dongliang.
Not only the money in her hand, but even the money in Old Qiao's hand, she couldn't give Zijin a penny.
Thinking that Qiao Zijin was already in her thirties, she had never received a penny from Qiao Zijin. On the contrary, Qiao Zijin had lived in her mother's house for two months, and all her food and drink were from her. In these two months, Qiao Zijin had no intention of giving her any money for the household expenses. The more Qiao Zijin did this, the more Ding Jiayi began to value money.
She had to eat rice and vegetables, and it was okay to leave a bite for Qiao Zijin, after all, she was her own child. But if Ding Jiayi was asked to give Qiao Zijin her own money again, she would not be so generous.
Otherwise, with Qiao Zijin's care, the money in Ding Jiayi's hand would have been coaxed by Qiao Zijin to buy a house.
Ding Jiayi not only had to keep a close eye on her own money, but also Qiao Dongliang's money. She knew that among the four people in their family, Qiao Zijin had the coldest and
hardest heart. In the future, if she needed money for something, Qiao Nan would pay half, and Qiao Zijin was unwilling to pay. If the money was really not enough, Qiao Dongliang would know her situation and would definitely not stand idly by. To put it bluntly, Ding Jiayi didn't give the money to Qiao Zijin because she was afraid that Qiao Dongliang would be coaxed by Qiao Zijin. She was worried that when she needed it, Qiao Zijin would coax Qiao Dongliang out of his money and he would not be able to give it to her.
In Ding Jiayi's eyes, there was not much difference between Qiao Dongliang's money and her money, so she had to take care of both sides and never give Qiao Zijin any chance to take advantage of her.
Ding Jiayi's approach of guarding against thieves made Qiao Zijin very angry. Isn't it said that old people are confused? Shouldn't they get more confused as they get older? Why does she feel that her mother is getting smarter and smarter?
When she was young, her mother was much easier to coax. On the contrary, in recent years, except for eating and drinking at her mother's house, she has not received a penny. She is so stingy. I really don't understand. This money was not earned by her mother. It was all given by Qiao Nan. They are all taking advantage of Qiao Nan. Why can only her mother take this advantage, and she can't even touch a single bill? What's the logic!
"Okay, I'm leaving. When I came here, I told you where the market is. From now on, you can handle it yourself." Qiao Nan didn't even look at the fight between Qiao Zijin and Ding Jiayi. She took her bag and left.
Qiao Zijin stomped her feet, chased out, and stopped Qiao Nan: "Nan Nan, I want to discuss something with you. I went out in a hurry this time, and I have spent all the cash I have. Can you lend me some money? It doesn't have to be too much, just a few thousand yuan. When I go back and have money, I will return it to you, okay?"
"No." Qiao Nan refused: "First, you don't have a job; second, Zhou Zheng wants to divorce you. Once you two divorce, you will no longer have the living expenses that Zhou Zheng gave you. You ask me to borrow money? What are you going to pay you back? You are not borrowing money, you are asking for money. Don't think of yourself as a high-class beggar, and don't think that the money in other people's pockets, especially my money, is blown by the wind."
After ruthlessly rejecting Qiao Zijin, Qiao Nan left happily this time, returned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and continued his work at hand.
