Chapter 31 Spend Money Happily
Lin Yi thought that he was going to get a job and his sister was going to move out. Besides, his future brother-in-law would probably buy some meat dishes to add to the dishes.
So he happily agreed to let Yanyan sit on a small stool in the corner to play while cooking, and look at the sketchbook that Lin Yan had drawn for her.
He looked up from time to time to make sure the child would not run away.
There was someone to take care of her eating, drinking, and going to the toilet.
Lin Yan took Fang Mingche to the department store by bike and bought the quilts for the shops that had coupons.
She also bought some blue flowered cloth with national cloth coupons.
Lin Yan planned to borrow the sewing machine from a neighbor at noon to make curtains, tablecloths, etc.
That night Fang Mingche moved to the new house with his daughter, and invited his parents-in-law and brother-in-law to come over to roast the bottom of the pot.
It was actually a bit tiring today, but Fang Mingche and Lin Yan were both tired and happy.
Spending money does make people happy!
In particular, both of them were optimistic about the prospects of selling big bowls of tea. Only when there is income can you have the confidence to spend money.
Looking at the newly decorated house they had worked on together, the two looked at each other and were a little excited. They
had settled down in BJ and had their own home! And it was two rooms, more than 30 square meters.
After Lin Yi came over, he looked inside and outside the house, and was amazed.
He was also eating an apple in his hand. God knows how long he hadn't eaten fruit.
When did life become so simple?
The curtains with blue background and white flowers were hung, and the eight-immortal table was covered with the same tablecloth.
The family used fine porcelain bowls. There were also several large pure white bowls in the new cupboard painted with tung oil.
The bedding, cushions, and covers on the bed were all new. The spatulas, ladles, basins, knives, cutting boards, etc. in the kitchen were also new.
Lin Yan and Fang Mingche thought that even if they were admitted to university in the future, they would have to rent a house to settle their daughter.
At that time, try not to live in the school dormitory and go to school as a day student. Then these things can still be used.
When they bought it, they didn't buy it as a short-term rental.
There is no bookcase, so there is a desk against the wall with a row of books standing upright. The books that Fang Minghui helped to send arrived two days ago.
There is no need to buy a bookcase for the time being, so save as much as possible!
Lin Yan is now in the kitchen, beating eggs with bowls and chopsticks. She put in three eggs, and can fry a large plate.
There is sour soup tofu fish in the pot, rolling happily
. The sour soup tofu fish is Fang Mingche's skill. Lin Yan also praised his skill.
Lin Yi opened the lid of the pot to take a look. It smells good!
"Sister, your life is so beautiful."
He thought about riding a bicycle to pick up his partner and eat together. The bottom of the pot was burnt, and the family gave a gift.
Lin's father and mother looked at it, but their faces became darker and darker.
Lin's mother said directly: "The 500 yuan will not be almost spent?"
They are people who have lived a life and have aged, and they can estimate the approximate amount at a glance.
It is impossible to buy so many things in a one-stop department store or supply and marketing cooperative.
Without so many receipts, people will not buy everything for you.
Most of them went to the black market.
The money would have to be increased by several percent.
Lin Yan thought for a moment, not counting the money for the bills, she did spend 400. The main cost was the rent and furniture, which was nearly 300.
So she said "hmm".
Lin's father's voice suddenly rose, "You guys are not going to make a living in the future? The rice, flour, grain and oil you bought are only enough for one month."
He meant that the 150 yuan rent must be paid. But Yanyan can continue to live in the Lin family, and her grandmother can watch over her.
Fang Mingche can also eat at the Lin family, so he doesn't have to buy many things.
Even this room can be sublet.
He had told his daughter about it originally. Who knew that these two prodigals would spend 70% to 80% of all their savings!
With only a hundred yuan left, can they last until the college
entrance examination with such lavish spending? Lin Yi, who was about to go out to pick up his partner, had to stop when he saw that a quarrel was about to break out.
Fang Mingche said, "Uncle, Ayan and I plan to set up a tea stall in Tiananmen Square during the day starting the day after tomorrow, and review our lessons at home at night."
It's time to make it clear. Otherwise, if he hears from acquaintances, the old man will be even angrier.
Fang Mingche was also a father-in-law in his previous life, so now he can understand his father-in-law's feelings. He is also willing to be more tolerant!
Lin's father's face changed immediately. Set up a tea stall?
This Fang guy wants to take his daughter to set up a tea stall!
"Can't you spend less money and study peacefully?"
I just thought you were a little more reliable, and you do this!
Fang Mingche said: "Uncle, we bought only necessities and didn't waste money. However, we have to save money and increase income, so that we can live without panic."
Lin's mother said: "That's not wrong. But if you want to set up a tea stall, you have to set it up in Tiananmen Square!"
Lin Yan handed the spatula to Fang Mingche and signaled him to fry eggs.
Fang Mingche then changed places with her and let her communicate directly with her parents. It's easier to communicate with blood relatives.
Yanyan was blowing soap bubbles at the door, and when she heard her grandfather's voice getting louder, she walked in to see.
Lin Yan said: "It's okay, you play yours. Xiaoyi, take her to play in the field."
Lin Yi agreed and took her out.
I was very annoyed. Why is the old man angry? Even if he gets angry, he has to wait until the meal is finished.
There are four or five dishes, two of which are meat dishes, plus a half-meat fried egg dish.
It was so difficult for him to bring up the idea of picking up his girlfriend to eat together.
His sister didn't even mention it.
In the kitchen, Lin Yan continued, "Dad, we are all working people, and labor is the most glorious. I am also responding to the call of the street office. The street office asked us to try to think of solutions ourselves, not just wait and rely on others. I don't feel at ease without any income."
"I said I would retire early and let you take over, but you didn't go! Do you think setting up a stall is the same as working in a state-owned teahouse?"
He worked as a waiter before liberation, and those customers didn't treat him as a human being.
They ordered him around, beat him and scolded him at every turn.
The situation may be better now, but setting up a stall is still looked down upon.
"You are a level 5 fitter, and your salary is high. It's not cost-effective for me to take over as a general worker. You and my mother should have more money on hand."
Lin's mother agreed with this.
Her job has been decided to be given to her son to take over. The old man shouldn't rush to retire.
He is only 47 and can still work for another 13 years.
If he retires early, he will lose a lot of money in these 13 years. Moreover, he may be able to adjust his salary level while still working, and his salary will continue to increase with seniority.
So he also advised: "We are here to fry the bottom of the pot for Xiao Fang. If you have anything to say, go back and tell me!"
There was a sizzling sound in the pot, and Fang Mingche poured the egg liquid into the pot while the oil was hot, and then quickly stir-fried it.
Only then did Father Lin restrain his anger, "Eat first!"
This kid has not become his son-in-law again, so he can do whatever he wants.
Go home later to educate your daughter.
