My superpowers are refreshed every week

"You don't have much living expenses this month, right?"

After finishing talking about the powder, Xia Xinyu stared into Chen Yuan's eyes and asked seriously.

Although she can't hear Chen Yuan's heart, she also has a super power——

Use sincere eyes to get the other person to tell the truth.

"How do you say this..."

It is now October 13th, and Chen Yuan’s monthly living expenses are one thousand and fifty, and his living expenses are due on the 24th, which is when Chen Yuan pays the rent. If the average daily expenditure is fifty, he still has at least three hundred.

In fact, Chen Yuan spent less money in the first twenty days of the living expenses cycle and did not use one thousand. However, after seeing the life countdown on Xia Xinyu's head, the gears of fate began to turn.

The balance of Alipay also started to rotate.

Now he only has one hundred and sixty-seven on hand. Even if he just has an ordinary breakfast or eats in the school cafeteria, he may not be able to do it when he comes back.

It can only be said that when he had to, he could only use that trick - old man, explode some gold coins.

"Actually, there's less than a hundred dollars left?"

Xia Xinyu guessed nervously.

"You can't say that. The topic of living expenses is a bit sensitive. I can only say that the range is between one hundred and twenty thousand." Chen Yuan answered vaguely.

"..." Xia Xinyu thought for a while and then asked, "Is it in the range of 200 to 20,000?"

"..."

Following Chen Yuan's long silence, Xia Xinyu guessed that Chen Yuan's current living expenses were less than two hundred.

Because of what, of course it is myself.

That wave dragon can be understood as a reward given to him by Chen Yuan, a small act of arrogance from time to time.

But the subsequent eel rice and black pork chops were just delicious food to coax myself into not dying.

"I will return to my hometown in a few days. The inheritance left by my parents can support me. But recently..."

"I know." Chen Yuan interrupted her and said very understandingly, "It's better not to contact my hometown for now. Wait until you are completely ready."

After finally getting strong, now is the stage of building confidence.

If she's not ready to face it yet, don't push her.

"Then these days..."

"It's okay, I'm asking my parents for money, don't worry."

"No, not anymore."

Quickly waving her hands, Xia Xinyu stopped her seriously, with a hint of pleading in her eyes.

This is really strange. What’s wrong with asking your parents for money?

[If Chen Yuan’s mother finds out that her son’s lack of living expenses is because he has to treat the neighbor girl to dinner, and it’s not just one meal, it’s for many days in a row...]

[His mother will definitely have a problem with me]

Ah, this...is this kid thinking too much?

You don’t understand Chen’s mother and make rash judgments.

My mother is a very good person. As long as she doesn’t think I am in puppy love and is helping others, she won’t be angry...

etc.

Why is she only worried that my mother has a problem with her?

Don’t you treat me, Chen Jianye, as a human being?

Also, Comrade Jianye can't even make the decision to open the bottle of Dream Blue in the wine cabinet at home, so what can he do?

"You, don't tell your mother that you have no living expenses." Xia Xinyu muttered again, fearing that Chen Yuan would be disobedient.

"Isn't it okay if I just say that I overused it?"

"It's even worse if you lie and find out." Xia Xinyu insisted.

And the meaning behind the words is also very clear.

It's okay for Chen Yuan to overspend for other reasons, but it's not okay if it's to treat neighbors to dinner and hide it from his parents.

It seems that she still cares about her opinions in other people's minds.

"Of course, I will figure out how to survive without living expenses." Xia Xinyu's style suddenly became serious. She clasped her fingers and carefully calculated, "vitamins, protein, fat, carbohydrates..."

"Can one hundred and sixty-seven satisfy even these?" Chen Yuan was shocked.

"Of course, there is a low-end version of the satisfaction method."

After roughly calculating, Xia Xinyu said creatively: "Discounted eggs, thirty pieces for 20 yuan, will be the main force of protein. As for the staple food, there is rice, and if you buy some noodles, you can make some eggs in different ways. Fried rice, scallion noodles, egg noodles, cold noodles and other variations. Eat lettuce leaves for vegetables..."

"Why specifically lettuce leaves?"

“Cheap and delicious.”

"OK."

"Meat, the most expensive meat..." Xia Xinyu looked at the tall Chen Yuan and asked, "You don't need to grow any more, right?"

"Do you want to use advanced technology and synthetic meat?"

"That's too unhealthy." Xia Xinyu shook her head, like a doctor of diet, and said very wisely, "Buy frozen chicken breast and add bread crumbs to make fried chicken steak. It only costs about ten yuan per serving, which can satisfy a person. A meal of meat dishes. After 8:45 pm, the discounted pork belly in the supermarket only costs 8 yuan a pound. Make dry-fried pork belly. Frozen chicken feet, make lemon boneless chicken feet, 15 yuan can solve a meal. Weekly In more than six hours, I will stew a crucian carp for us..."

"Is this enough money?" Chen Yuan asked nervously.

"When will your living expenses be paid?"

"Number twenty-three."

"That's no problem."

Xia Xinyu answered decisively, then clasped her hands as if grabbing something, and said with a bright smile: "On weekend nights, I can even eat two cones."

"..."

One hundred and sixty may not be able to open an Internet cafe in Tuba.

But at Xia Xinyu's place, one hundred and sixty-six people could even set up a table.

Such a perfect woman, who will be cheap after so many years?

"What? Are you... dissatisfied with the food?" Xia Xinyu looked at Chen Yuan and asked in confusion.

"You still have to go to school and prepare dinner and breakfast every day. Do you have time?"

"Don't worry about this. You have to persevere in these difficult days." Faced with the short-term setbacks, Xia Xinyu said cheerfully, "When your living expenses are paid next week, I will go back to my hometown... By then, I won't have to be so tight. Yes. However, I am a little embarrassed..."

"Why are you embarrassed?"

"I only gave you breakfast and dinner, but at noon..." Xia Xinyu said apologetically, "I only gave you a budget of 8 yuan per meal, totaling 40 yuan, not counting drinks."

"That's it? It's okay. The school's eight-yuan set meal also comes with two dishes and one soup. I'll pick up the drinks at school."

"Can your school still serve drinks?"

"Well, I'll bring my own cup and ask Zhou Yu to pick it up."

"Your pronunciation is not standard, so it should be called 'Jie', right?" Xia Xinyu complained leisurely.

After drinking, I gradually discovered Xia Xinyu's humor.

"What about your lunch?"

"You don't have to worry about this. I eat with my aunt at noon. In the teachers' cafeteria of No. 4 Middle School, each faculty member can bring one child..." Talking about this, Xia Xinyu said slightly embarrassed, "I am that child. , I’ll eat with my aunt tomorrow for free.”

Although my aunt often wants to give her living expenses, as long as she asks for it, she will not be so strapped, but after all, she also has her own life, an uncle, and a cousin.

As an orphan, there will be too many troubles for her in the future.

Therefore, you have to overcome the troubles that you can avoid as much as possible.

There will always be cracks in the family ties that need to be maintained through financial aid.

It was precisely because he loved his aunt, and he didn't want her to get into an impatient quarrel with his uncle one night because of being a drag on him.

The only person who can cause trouble now is Chen Yuan.

If he falls in love and has someone who will get impatient and quarrel one day because of his existence...

Out of self-respect, she didn't want to be that trouble.

"That's pretty good. The quota in the canteen is free. You don't use it in vain." Chen Yuan answered naturally, and didn't think it was embarrassing for the other party to have sex with his aunt.

And after listening to her, he had only one thought.

Why is this kid so worried?

Is it troublesome or not?

If the gears of fate don't turn.

How could I, Chen Yuan, have a 17-year-old high school student cook to feed me?

"That's still a penny less."

After putting his backpack on his back, Chen Yuan said calmly as he walked with Xia Xinyu to the bus stop.

"Eh? Are there any expenses?"

"There are more than ten stops to the school."

"..."

Xia Xinyu, who was reminded, suddenly reacted, froze on the spot, frowned, and her expression immediately became sad: "Ahhhhh...The only snack, the boneless lemon chicken feet, is gone? No, then wouldn't this week be the same? No hope at all? How about...you go find Zhou Yujie some more?"
