"Huh? No, I saw his sister come back to ask Lu Jiangting if he had sent money back yesterday."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

Well, so the money wasn't returned to his sister after all.

If she guessed correctly, the money should have been given to Fang Qing.

It's ridiculous, Lu Jiangting is still the same Lu Jiangting.

In her past life, she had also made a fuss when she was unwilling to give Fang Qing so much money.

Later, Lu Jiangting got annoyed by her antics and even used his sister as a shield.

"Yuyao, what's wrong? Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Lin Yuyao said directly, "Lu Jiangting was supposed to pay me back a few days ago, but he said he paid back his sister first and I'll pay him back next month."

"What? Hey, that bastard, what the hell did he return? What a piece of trash, he didn't return it to either side, he cheated both. He probably used it to take medicine, ugh~"

No way, she'll make a scene about this later, and his sister will kill him.

"Mom, I sent you some money back home."

"Huh?" Ye Lian was taken aback. "Why are you sending me money? It must be so hard for you to be all alone out there. If you have money, keep it for yourself. You're such a young girl, you shouldn't skimp on yourself. Buy yourself a nice outfit."

"I have some, but I mostly kept it with me and only sent you a little."

"How much is one point?"

This……

Lin Yuyao said weakly, "One thousand."

Ok?

"What? A thousand?" Ye Lian was surprised and asked in a low voice, "Where did you get so much money? Girl, you haven't done anything illegal, have you? We may be poor, but we can't do anything illegal. Your brother is going to military school, and he needs to go through a political background check."

Lin Yuyao: “…”

"No, I earn money by writing articles for others."

"Writing an article? What kind of article? The one for the newspaper?"

That's all she knows right now; talking to her about novels only confuses her further.

Uh……

"almost."

"Can you make money writing that?"

"Of course they can. These days, it's intellectuals who make money."

"You didn't lie to me?"

"No, Mom, don't worry, I definitely didn't do anything illegal. I'll send it back to you when they print it out."

Can I send it back to her to see?

Hearing her say that, Ye Lian was finally relieved.

"This is making so much money! You should keep some for yourself?"

"I've kept it, don't worry."

"Then you don't need to send me so much."

Lin Yuyao thought for a moment and said, "Mother, here's three hundred for my dowry, three hundred for travel expenses, and the other four hundred is my filial piety gift to you. Lin Ping has his exams coming up soon, and he only has one month of leave left, right?"

When he gets back, make sure he gets some good food and plenty of living expenses, and make sure he does well on his exams. After he finishes, give him some money to relax; he's worked very hard these past three years.

"Oh! You child, you think too much."

“I know there are many expenses at home. My older brother is getting married during the Spring Festival. Now that we have money, you should encourage him to quit his job at the coal mine as soon as possible. The policies have been relaxed now, and there are opportunities everywhere. Let my older brother do something else.”

They originally planned to finish this year and then have Lin Gang work for another year, because getting married would cost money.

We definitely don't have enough money at home; we'll have to borrow some later.

I can pay off the debt if I work for another year.

Now things are much better. With this thousand yuan, my eldest son can quit his job after working until the Chinese New Year this year.

"Okay, I'll tell your older brother when he gets back."

After hanging up the phone, Ye Lian had a complicated expression.

How can it be so profitable?

Is it real?

She had never heard of earning so much money in such a short time, and she felt uneasy.

I told Lin Dawei about it when I got back.

Lin Dawei was also shocked.

"Did you hear me right? One hundred or one thousand?"

Ye Lian: "It's not written on paper. I might misread two or three circles. She told me herself, how could I possibly mishear her?"

"Is she...is she alright?"

Ye Lian: "..."

"What do you mean?"

"She's only received two months' salary, right? How can she earn so much money?"

"Didn't I already say that she earned the money from writing articles?"

"What's the quality of that newspaper compared to hers? How is that possible?"

Ye Lian was displeased when she heard him say that.

"Why not? Her teacher praised her for her good writing when she was a child. Maybe she can really make a living in this field."

"How can a child's writing compare to that of a great writer?"

"Hey, I've noticed that you... are you looking down on people or are you just jealous? You're incompetent yourself, yet you still wish Yuyao well. We're all human, if others can do it, why can't she? Yuyao said she'd send it back to me to see once it's printed."

Lin Dawei: "Do we have to send it back?"

"That is it."

Tsk tsk, could it really be true?

Does that mean their family is going to produce a cultured person?

That's like their ancestors' graves emitting auspicious smoke!

"Tomorrow we'll buy some incense, candles, and paper money to burn for my parents."

"It's not a holiday or festival. What will you say when the villagers ask you about it? You haven't even received the remittance slip yet, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Lin Ping is about to take his exams, let's take this opportunity to pray for him as well."

This……

"also."

……

Lin Yuyao divided the remaining money into three parts: one part to save, one part to keep for living expenses, and one part to return to Fu Huaiyi.

The day after tomorrow is Saturday, I wonder if Fu Huaiyi will come.

I haven't seen him in a long time, he should come, right?

The clothes alone cost several tens of dollars, plus the hospital fees, and all the other things he bought for me.

The most expensive item is the fan.

She asked around and found out that the fan Fu Huaiyi bought cost 180 yuan.

So expensive.

The second most expensive item was the desk lamp, which cost sixty yuan.

The wardrobe and table weren't too expensive.

In comparison, home appliances were really expensive at that time.

Lin Yuyao took out four hundred yuan, calculated that it was more than what she owed, and considered it as interest to pay the other party.

She neatly laid out the four hundred yuan in an envelope and put it in her bag.

Because I don't know when I'll see Fu Huaiyi, I carry it with me so I can easily return it to him when I do.

She also took out another ten yuan.

She had previously asked Zhou Jing and Liu Yihuan to help her find a place, especially Zhou Jing, who was the one who helped her rent the room at a cheap price.

I said I would treat them to a meal.

Let's do it tomorrow, Friday. We can order some good dishes during lunch break.

noon the next day.

There was fish and meat, and the table was covered with food.

"Yuyao, why are you so bad at this?"

Lin Yuyao said with a smile, "I told you I would treat you to a meal, but there weren't many dishes. Sister Jing, Sister Huan, thank you for taking care of me."

"Oh, we're all family here, why are you being so polite?"

"Hehe, you're too kind. I won't stand on ceremony. Let's start eating."

"eat."

Despite the generous amount of food and meat, the three of them ate everything clean.

Firstly, new goods arrived this morning, and moving them around is all physically demanding work.

You get hungry more easily after doing physical labor.

Secondly, even if a family was well-off, they couldn't afford to eat meat every day back then.

My stomach is empty, and I get hungry as soon as I see meat.

On her way home from get off work that evening, Lin Yuyao ran into Fu Huaiyi.
