Chapter 23
"You still have 144 yuan left this year, and I will give you 100 yuan left."

"When your child was born in the fourth year, you still paid 10 yuan for living expenses to your family. Your father and I raised you and your child."

"And this year your salary has increased. You can get 27.5 yuan a month. After excluding the money given to your family, you can have a total of 210 yuan left."

"You have a child and your expenses are high. I will also give you 100 yuan."

"In the fifth year, you are officially graded. The first-level worker's salary is 32.5 yuan. In addition to paying home, you still have 270 left."

"You have only worked for half a year this year, and it is 135 yuan."

"You have to give birth to a child and raise a child at the same time. I don't care if you only have half of it left."

"So after calculation, you two have at least nearly 600 yuan on hand!"

"With a job worth 800 yuan, you and your wife will be able to earn 50.5 yuan a month in the future. Any increase in the future will not be counted for the time being."

"Excluding the 10 yuan given to your family, you still have at least 40 yuan a month."

"Use half of it to repay the money. The borrowed money can be repaid in just one year."

Thinking of this, Liu Xiumei laughed to herself. She turned to look at her husband: "Our family will raise you up and then start a family for you...your father and I saved it little by little."

"Fortunately, you are now grown up and can support your own little family."

Fu Manhai was confused by his mother's calculations, but he was sure of one thing: "But we don't have so much money!"

"Then how much money do you have?" Fu Gaoming asked subconsciously.

After asking, he immediately looked at his old wife. He could guarantee that he was really just out of curiosity and asking questions without any meaning.

But Fu Manhai didn't think so. He seemed to be grasping the straw of hope. He looked at his parents with hope and explained his family background without hesitation: "It's just... less than a hundred yuan!"

Upon hearing this data, everyone collectively fell into silence.

Even Xiao Yuanhe, who had been eating silently, subconsciously put down his spoon.

"So... you can only save 600 yuan but less than [-] yuan. Why do you think your sister can save you enough money to change your job?" Liu Xiumei also looked at her son sincerely and asked.

She really can't understand her son's mind now!

No, it seems like she has never really understood it.

Fu Manhai was a little confused by the question, and he subconsciously replied: "Didn't you and Manman himself say that you want to save money to find a job for Manhe?"

"Then you haven't saved any money, so that's why you have this little money left?" Fu Manman said unbearably!
"I...I..." Fu Manhai looked at his wife in confusion.

Xu Chunhua was also shocked and had not recovered yet. She had not been good at math since she was a child. In addition, Manhai had never had a problem with spending money, whether as a friend or after getting married.

Therefore, Xu Chunhua has never taken care of the couple's belongings.

But she had never thought that their small family had nothing at all!
The couple looked at each other for a while, and then Fu Manhai looked at his parents and sister with a sense of grievance: "Then...then how much money do you think the family still has!!"

The problem could come back here again, which Liu Xiumei never expected.She really wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, but she had to answer her son's question: "How much money do you think the family should have?"

"Perhaps, I should ask...how much do you think your family should spend on this matter?"

Fu Manhai was even more confused. He really didn't understand what happened to his mother today?
Why do you keep asking about your home?What to give him?
Aren't they just a family?
Why do we have to separate you and me?
Subconsciously, Fu Manhai turned his attention to other people in the family, looking for support and someone who could speak justice for him.

But no matter whether he looked left or right, or looked forward or backward, it seemed that everyone was waiting to see what else he could say!
Seeing that her second son didn't answer, Liu Xiumei asked again: "Manhai, you are an adult who has made money for several years and even has two children."

"As a mother, I just want to ask you... How much money have you paid to your family until now?"

"I pay it every month! I have been paying it since I started working. It used to be five yuan, but now it is ten yuan!" Fu Manhai was very aggrieved. Why has he never paid money to his family?
Xu Chunhua subconsciously pulled her husband's sleeve, trying to stop him from talking.

"This money... is given to the family?" Liu Xiumei was almost angry at her son: "Then what do you eat? What do your wife and children eat?"

"That's not a supply..." Fu Manhai's voice became smaller and smaller.

In fact, he has not forgotten that when he went to buy food supplies with his parents when he was a child, in addition to the food book, he still had to give money.

It was only in recent years that his mother gave up her job and her wife was here, so he no longer had to worry about these things.

Liu Xiumei took a deep breath. She wondered if the couple had done something wrong, which was why their son still didn't understand anything even though he had children.

She was too lazy to talk nonsense to Fuman and said directly: "Manhai, our ability as parents is only like this!"

"I also think that I have no preference for you children. If I really want to say that the ones who suffer, it must be the two younger ones below."

"We helped you and your brother find jobs."

"We don't ask you to contribute money when we start a family. We even subsidize the children."

"Except for living expenses, you two have never paid us anything extra."

"As for the rest of the younger brothers and sisters, your mother gave them all their jobs...but you have jobs, and she was also born to us. Isn't it appropriate to give her a job?"

"You give her money to eat at home after work, and she gives you money to eat at home after work. There is no difference."

"Even now, Manman still eats alone, while you two brothers... besides yourself, you also eat with your children, for several years."

"The rest of Manhe will come with you!"

"Manhe went to the countryside without a job, so we parents owe him... Logically speaking, if we really want to treat you fairly, your father's job should also be given to him."

"But your father didn't give in. He only gave him 10 yuan as a monthly subsidy. Do you really think it's enough?"

"If you think it's enough, you can also give your job to your brother. I believe he will be willing to continue to subsidize you."

"As for your little sister, her work has never cost us and my wife anything. She lives in the factory and doesn't eat at home."

"So, it stands to reason that her salary is the same as yours, so she can keep it for herself!"
