Chapter 765 After a Short Separation 2
Learning that there was still more than 600 yuan in the house, Lu Jiang stared at his wife for a long time with his eyes wide open, and finally became helpless.
"Hearing you say you are penniless, I thought our family's money would not last until next month. Our salary and allowances add up to more than 200 yuan a month. Living in the army, including all the personal connections and the cost of purchasing local medicinal materials privately, we spend at most 100 yuan a month. According to the bill you summarized, the two biggest expenses in the past six months are air tickets and train tickets. It's not like you take planes or trains every month, and Xiaoyun's living expenses are not given every month. I guess you have bought a lot of antiques, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings when you have free time in the capital these days? You don't have this opportunity in the army."
"In order to avoid running out of money when you want to buy something, you must not spend it without restraint. As you said, it costs a lot to buy antiques and cultural relics. If you come across them in the future, you can continue to buy them. It's more reassuring to keep them in your own hands." Feng Qingxue heard this and felt that she needed to save more money. If she had the chance, she would go to various scrap collection stations, second-hand goods markets and black markets to search for antiques and cultural relics.
Thinking of this, Feng Qingxue couldn't help but feel a little sorry.
She had planned to visit the scrap collection stations and flea markets in the capital after the confinement, and buy as many antiques and cultural relics as possible to store in the space. Even if she couldn't keep them for herself in the future, donating them to the country would be a contribution.
Some antiques can be kept as collections for oneself, and some cultural relics must be handed over.
Xibao wiped his mouth suddenly after eating the fruit, "I have money!"
Feng Qingxue and Lu Jiang were both stunned, and the latter said: "I didn't hear your mother say that she would give you money, where did you get the money?"
Xibao had never worried about food and clothing since he was a child. Feng Qingxue never gave him a penny, of course, except for the New Year's money, but she took back the New Year's money afterwards, including the money given to him by his comrades in the army.
"I have money!" Xibao went to find his small shoulder bag.
This small shoulder bag was made of colorful scraps of cloth. It was made by the orderly of the old leader's family. The colors were bright. Xibao liked it very much. He carried it every day for a while, and then threw it aside after forgetting it.
Of course, he would still carry it diagonally for a few days when he remembered it.
"My bag, mom, where is my bag?"
Feng Qingxue knew that the bag he was talking about was not a steamed bun but a shoulder bag, so she turned around and took it out from the luggage bag. As soon as she got it in her hand, she felt something was wrong. The small shoulder bag was bulging and there was something inside.
Before she opened it to see what was inside, Xibao grabbed it, opened it herself, and poured out a stack of big unity.
"My money!" Xibao shouted.
There are at least dozens of big unity photos in a stack. Feng Qingxue and Lu Jiang looked at each other and asked each other at the same time: "Where did he get it?"
"I don't know either, because I never taught Xibao to put things in the small bag. When I first brought this bag back from the old leader's house, it was empty. Later, I didn't open this small bag. Xibao didn't let me touch it. When I packed my luggage, he stuffed it into the luggage bag himself." Feng Qingxue said, kneeling in front of Xibao, "Xibao, tell mom, who gave you the money?"
"Grandpa!" Xibao grabbed a handful of money in his fat hands, "Buy cakes, buy fruits, buy meat!"
Feng Qingxue frowned, "Mom knows that it was grandpa who gave it to you. Which grandpa gave it to you?" As she spoke, she took out all the photos, "Tell mom, which grandpa gave it to you?"
