The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Three days passed in a flash, and Na Wei started looking for a new job, working hard to earn back the one million he had been cheated out of.

But after he contacted a few acquaintances, he discovered that the economy was indeed in recession. Many of his old friends' companies were either laying off employees or tightening spending, and they were having a very difficult time.

Three days passed, and not only did Na Wei not find a job, but he also spent several thousand yuan on treating old friends to dinner and socializing.

After Shen Lin received the credit card information, she went home and scolded Na Wei.

"Are you crazy? You knew that our family had no money, but you still went out to eat and drink." Shen Lin took out her cell phone and roared at Na Wei: "You spent more than a thousand yuan for a meal."

Na Wei said innocently: "I asked my old friends about jobs, I can't let them pay the bill!"

Shen Lin angrily asked: "Have you found a job?"

Na Wei said ashamedly: "No, Mr. Li is not doing well now, so the company moved to the suburbs to save some rent."

Shen Lin became even angrier when she heard this and said, "You mean the money was wasted."

Na Wei said ashamedly: "You can't say that. Lao Li promised to help me keep an eye on the work."

Shen Lin was speechless: "Isn't this just perfunctory?"

Na Wei was not convinced and said: "Based on my friendship with Lao Li, he is not that kind of person."

Shen Lin rolled her eyes and said, "Old Li can barely protect himself, how can he care about you?"

After saying that, Shen Lin took out a pile of bills and calculated this month's expenses.

"The monthly mortgage, water, electricity, gas, heating fees, as well as Zhuoyue's tuition and miscellaneous fees, and the nanny's salary..."

The more Shen Lin calculated, the angrier he became. He then took out the family savings and compared them, and finally came to a conclusion.

"If you can't find a job, the family savings and my salary can only support us for another four months."

Na Wei was surprised and asked, "How could that be? I remember that my family still has a fixed deposit of 200,000 yuan, right?"

Shen Lin spread the bill in front of Na Wei and said, "Don't you calculate how much the family expenses are? The mortgage alone is 8,000 yuan a month, the nanny's salary is several thousand yuan, my daughter's tuition is 18,000 yuan a month, and there is also money to support the elderly on both sides. Add it all up, it's at least 50,000 or 60,000 yuan a month."

The more Na Wei listened, the more confused he became, and he realized the seriousness of the problem.

"My monthly salary is only 7,000 yuan, which is not enough to cover the household expenses." Shen Lin said with a bitter face.

Na Wei said with guilt: "Wife, I'm sorry. It's all my fault that I trusted Qin Lingling and got cheated out of one million. Otherwise, our family wouldn't be in such a difficult situation."

Shen Lin sighed and said, "I'm not blaming you, but I want to tell you that our family is in financial difficulty now, and you can't spend money like that anymore."

Na Wei nodded and said, "I understand. I will never dare to do that again."

Shen Lin said seriously: "I plan to fire the nanny at home. We will do the housework and cooking ourselves in the future. We can save a lot every month."

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I have plenty of time at home now, so I'll do the housework." Na Wei nodded in agreement.

Although Shen Lin was angry at Na Wei for squandering his money, she never thought of leaving him. Husband and wife should be able to share both wealth and adversity.

Na Wei gradually adjusted his mentality and stopped acting like a big shot at home and eating free meals, which made Shen Lin feel relieved.

"If you don't find a job within four months, we may have to transfer our daughter to another school," Shen Lin said with a bitter face.

"No." Na Wei said excitedly: "It doesn't matter if we adults suffer a little, but we can't let the children suffer."

"The private school that Zhuoyue is attending now has too expensive tuition fees. There are also training class fees every semester, plus the cost of supplementary lessons. We really can't afford it right now." Shen Lin said seriously:
"I calculated that if my daughter transferred to a public school, she could save a lot of tuition."

Na Wei assured: "Don't worry about work. After all, your husband has been the vice president of the company for so many years. He still has some connections, and it shouldn't be easy for him to find a job." Seeing Na Wei's confident look, Shen Lin didn't want to discourage him.

Compared to Na Wei, Shen Lin is much more rational. She knows that Na Wei's so-called connections are actually built on the premise that the company is still in existence every day.

Now that the company has collapsed, the boss is in jail, and the boss's wife has run away, who still cares about him as the vice president!
"Hurry up and find a job! I'll also contact a headhunter I know for you." Shen Lin took out his cell phone and called an old classmate.

The couple worked together and just wanted to get through the current crisis, but reality dealt them another blow.

For three consecutive months, Na Wei couldn't find a job. Seeing that the family savings were getting less and less, Shen Lin not only had to work every day, but also had to take care of the family. She looked very haggard. Na Wei saw it and was worried.

During this period, Wang Gang expressed his willingness to help his sister and brother-in-law, but was rejected by the two of them. They really didn't want to trouble their younger brother again unless they were completely desperate.

Until this day, the outstanding school demanded payment of tuition fees. Shen Lin and Na Wei saw the bill of 18,000 yuan and began to feel troubled.

"There is less than 50,000 yuan left in the family savings, and we have to pay for the Zhuoyue cram school." Shen Lin said to Na Wei while holding the passbook.

Na Wei gritted his teeth and said, "You pay the tuition first, I'll go and borrow some from Na Jun."

Shen Lin shook her head and said, "It's better to ask my brother for help than to ask Na Jun for help. Na Jun's place is also in a mess."

Since Na Jun was diagnosed with panic disorder, it gradually began to affect his work. Every time he took medicine, his head felt dizzy and he was unable to type any code.

In order to keep his job, Na Jun had to stop taking the medication, but his panic disorder symptoms became increasingly worse, and he even once openly contradicted his boss at the company.

Li Xiaoyue has been persuading Na Jun to resign and receive treatment, but Na Jun refused, thinking that he could just hold on for a while longer. Little did he know that the company's CEO Lu had already noticed his problem.

President Lu didn't want to fire Na Jun and pay him a large severance pay, so he used some tricks to exclude Na Jun. Not only did he kick him out of the project team, he also didn't notify him of meetings and moved his workstation to near the toilet, disgusting Na Jun and forcing him to resign.

Na Jun naturally kept all this a secret from his family, but Li Xiaoyue and Shen Lin were colleagues now and spent every day together, so naturally he couldn't hide it.

"Okay, let's ask Xiaolei for help!" Na Wei finally lowered his proud head and was completely defeated by reality.

Shen Lin called Wang Gang and asked him to come to her house.

Wang Gang gladly accepted the invitation and brought one million yuan to his sister.

"Sister, my copyright fee has come in, 4.2 million after tax. I will give you 1 million for emergency use." Wang Gang said cheerfully:
"As for my brother-in-law's job, I have made arrangements with my friend and asked him to go to CBD for an interview tomorrow."

Looking at the bank card in front of them, Shen Lin and Na Wei were deeply touched.

When Shen Lei worked in the archives, the couple took good care of him. Unexpectedly, now it is their turn to need their younger brother's care.

"Xiao Lei, thank you. As your brother-in-law, I am too embarrassed to see you." Na Wei said ashamedly.

"Brother-in-law, don't say that. We are all relatives, and we should support each other. You and my sister have helped me a lot in the past." Wang Gang smiled and said, "Take this money first, and don't feel burdened. I have news about the money you were cheated of."

Na Wei's eyes lit up and he asked, "Have you found Qin Lingling?"

Wang Gang nodded and said, "I received news that Qin Lingling is in Singapore. I will find a way to get your money back."

Na Wei and Shen Lin were overjoyed.

"Xiao Lei, how did you find Qin Lingling?" Shen Lin asked.

"What a coincidence. I went to the detention center yesterday and met someone. He gave me the information."

The person Wang Gang was talking about was Lu Jie.

Lu Jie took the initiative to find Wang Gang, wanting him to stop Xie Meilan. (End of this chapter)
