Xiang Meimei had no idea that as soon as she got home, Chen Sanni's return gift and the request for a bicycle ticket were already on the way.
Zhang Jidi saw that she had returned safely and the sun had not yet set, so he didn't say anything.
Even though Chen Wei was following her.
They are already engaged, and the only thing left to get married is the wedding banquet. As long as they don't stay overnight, the mother-in-law will be happy to see the couple strengthen their relationship.
Chen Wei also knew his limits. He said hello to Zhang Jidi and his family and went back.
The two of them had been close enough along the way, so they didn't dare to be affectionate under the nose of their mother-in-law.
Xiang Meimei returned to her room and carefully wrote down her expenses.
This is a very good habit, and most heads of households will keep track of it. Income and expenditure are clear at a glance, and personal relationships can also be archived for easy retrieval in the future.
It is impossible to give blindly. If Xiang Meimei gives Chen Sanni two gifts but she doesn't return the favor, she will stay away from this sister-in-law.
How can you make deep friends if you don’t understand how to deal with people?
In the blink of an eye, the Xiang family has lived in this courtyard for almost half a year. When they first moved in, they had to buy beds on the spur of the moment, and since they couldn't buy quilts, they had to sleep together.
Now, a few months have passed, the family has become more well-off after receiving their salary, and they have all got their own quilts. Everyone has their own room, and their sense of happiness has greatly increased.
Everyone felt that it was really worth it to exchange two jobs for this big house.
The tube-shaped building has poor sound insulation. Xiang Hongqi mostly works night shifts, and when he tries to catch up on his sleep during the day, he is always woken up by the noise of pots and pans and crying children. Since he moved into the yard, it has become much quieter.
His work efficiency has improved a lot. He exceeded the parts demand this month. The extra parts were paid by the number, and he was paid an extra 6.5 yuan!
Zhang Jidi was so happy when he received the household allowances from everyone that he even turned down Xiang Meimei's share: "You're getting married soon, so save the money and buy something you like."
With five people working, the family life was not so stressful. Zhang Jidi did not want to mistreat his eldest daughter, so he left some money for Meimei to save for her dowry, which made both sides happy.
Xiang Liguo and Xiang Lidang also looked at their mother eagerly.
After Zhang Jidi finished being affectionate with his daughter, he turned around and saw his two annoying sons: "Don't even think about it, unless your father and I go to hell, you can do whatever you want after the family splits up."
Can daughters and sons be the same?
My son has to spend a lot of money to marry a wife, which requires several hundred dollars. After that, he has to buy furniture and worry about the choice of wife, which is all hard work.
Daughters are different. They take care of the housework and work to earn money for the family. They can take the bride price back as a dowry, and the family does not have to pay for it. If they are ruthless, they can even earn half of the bride price.
So she has to keep her son's salary tightly in her hands, and she is not likely to interfere with her daughter-in-law's salary. Her son has no chance of escaping from her clutches!
Zhang Jidi's expression softened as he looked at his fifth daughter, Xiang Lili, and his youngest daughter, Xiang Mianmian. "You two will do the same as my second sister. After you get engaged, you can save up your own dowry with your wages."
Xiang Lili and Xiang Mianmian nodded obediently.
As for the fourth child, Xiang Lihua, his mind was full of play and he was full of endless energy. Work was too far away for him and he didn't listen at all. He only cared about one thing:
"Mom, Dad got a reward. Can we have a good meal tomorrow?"
"You only know how to eat, don't you want to live like this? Your elder brother Liguo and your younger sister Meimei's wedding is just around the corner, what good food can you eat? Can't this meal stop you from eating?"
Zhang Ji’s first meal out, she was used to being frugal, she calculated the amount of food every day, and only bought some meat on the day she got her salary.
Xiang Lihua, who was exported, immediately buried his head in eating meat and dared not say a word.
He was just trying to figure out what to do. What if Mom was in a good mood? A big meal was coming, and a few comments wouldn't matter. It wouldn't cost him anything anyway.
Xiang Mianmian had a bitter face. Oh my god, she had lived in poverty for more than half a year, and her face had turned green. She brought two jobs and a big house to her family, and their lives went from starving to having enough to eat.
After all, she is an 8-year-old child. If she had worked, at least she would have had some money to spend from her salary. Now she can only rely on her mother to give her some pocket money occasionally.
It's so miserable, she must be the most miserable woman who traveled through time. She starved to death at the beginning, and now she has two jobs and a big yard, which is just enough to make her have enough food and clothing, and she still can't eat well!
From now on, she will get angry with anyone who tells her to lose weight!
Her barbecue, hot pot, Bobo chicken, hamburgers, milk tea, or worst case scenario, cola, instant noodles, French fries, and skewers will do, woooo.
[Ding, still worried about your job? Mission incoming: Please resolve Wang Chunyan's work crisis within 86 hours. Mission reward: 10 system storage slots.]
Wow!!!
Xiang Mianmian cheered in her heart. The storage compartment she had been longing for finally appeared.
Although it’s not a space, it can hold things!
She was eager to try, feeling that this mission was a must.
All the previous mission rewards she received were contributed to her family, and she didn't receive any major benefits. Now that she has this storage compartment, she can hide delicious food.
It's like the difference between paying money to your family after work and saving in your own piggy bank. Can the enthusiasm be the same?
The light in Xiang Mianmian's eyes was amazing. For the food and for the small treasury, go for it!
Wang Chunyan, is this person related to her family?
Wait, this name sounds familiar...
Isn't this the older sister of my future sister-in-law, Wang Chunting? I heard she works at a department store.
While she was still thinking about the task, Wang Chunyan's house was in a mess. The whole family had bruises on their faces, and even her sister-in-law who was trying to stop the fight was not spared.
Wang Chunyan is not as gentle and reserved as Wang Chunting. She is very aggressive: "I can't give up this job. Don't dream on!"
