"It looks like we won’t be able to buy antiques and artifacts as we please anymore, no spare money, that over one hundred left every month needs to be kept for ergencies." Feng Qingxue felt a pang in her heart and clutched the notebook filled with bills to her chest, "We still owe Uncle Xia ten thousand yuan, I wrote on the IOU that it would be repaid within three years, now we can only sell Gold to clear the debt."
Previously, life seed abundant, now it seems that if we don’t find ways to save, we’ll be strapped for cash.
This, this, this... it’s a world of difference!
Lu Jiang felt a toothache, holding his cheek, unable to buy his wife the things she likes, unable to let her live in a way where she could buy whatever she wants, it’s a serious issue for him.
"Let see, why is our spending so high." Lu Jiang went through the bills Feng Qingxue recorded, thought for a mont, crossed out the clothing allowance for the children, changed living expenses to 10 yuan per month, and set a separate clothing allowance of 30 yuan per person per year, then eliminated expenses like dining out, "Let’s eat out less, focus on social obligations, and we can save twenty yuan a month."
Feng Qingxue pointed at him in jest, "You’re dreaming, when our kids eat out, it’s more than twenty, didn’t you see Erxiong, his appetite is as big as a strong laborer, this item can’t be changed. The clothing allowance for the boys can be reduced, their old clothes can be patched and extended, we can also resize our military uniforms for them. Fubao is getting more vain as she grows, she wishes for new clothes every year, if you cut too much, she’ll definitely give you a hard ti."
Pausing, she looked relieved, "Thankfully, Yunyun sent Fubao several sets of clothes and several new pairs of shoes this year, maybe spending dozens of yuan on making her a couple of dresses and shirts next year will get us through."
This way, most of next year’s clothing expenses for the kids can be saved.
"We can save a few hundred!" Feng Qingxue exclaid excitedly.
Lu Jiang made a couple of sounds of agreent, eyes wide open as he tried to find more places to save, finally crossing out fuel costs, "I’ve decided, besides work trips, we’ll avoid using the car whenever possible, or take a ride from others, save this money to buy you things."
Hearing this, Feng Qingxue was overjoyed, her heart sweet as honey.
Having exhausted all options to save money, Lu Jiang closed the notebook, cleared his throat, "As for Dad and Xibao, we don’t need to worry for now, maybe because Third Uncle and Aunt are around, they haven’t asked us for money these past two years. When Dad can live with us, I reckon he would have been rehabilitated, the state will surely compensate."
Feng Qingxue suddenly rembered the compensation of one hundred thousand yuan given to Lu’s father in a previous life, "At that ti, Dad was a millionaire. But that’s Dad’s money, we can’t plan on it, there’s also Tianjun and Tianzhi!"
ntioning the two nephews, she suddenly rembered the extra inco each month, "Almost forgot, I need to note that I send twenty yuan each month to Tianjun and Acheng, every month it’s forty, no matter how many tis I’ve ntioned it, it doesn’t change. Tianzhi and Ayu also wanted it, luckily I persuaded them otherwise, they don’t earn much back ho, just enough for their own living."
"And the living expenses Ye Xiangqian gives to Ye Yan." One hundred a month, quite a substantial amount.
Feng Qingxue shook her head, "No need to count this money, his grandparents live next door, Ye Yan will definitely stay there sotis, perhaps our kids will also eat there occasionally, how could we feel right taking Ye Xiangqian’s money?"
She was aware of everything.
