Chapter 23 Lack of Money
"I only need one catty. I can't finish eating too much, and it will spoil."

Qiao bought the remaining two pounds and sixty ounces, one pound of meat cost eighty cents, plus the meat stamps, two pounds and sixty ounces was two dollars and eight cents.

Bones and ribs are cheaper, only [-] cents a pound, but buying them with meat stamps is obviously a luxury.

Tickets are limited.

Joe has only about five catties of meat tickets.

She hesitated for a moment, then bought another pound of ribs.

I only have a dozen yuan left in my hand. Since I was just paid a salary of 30 yuan, I took home [-] yuan. Of the [-] yuan last month, five yuan was used as living expenses to eat in the cafeteria.

But there are only about ten yuan left.

There is also money to buy paper.

She asked the editor-in-chief to queue up to print 21 English learning cards for the [-] yuan she got back from the cards sold by her third brother.

It’s all in investment.

Calculate like this.

Qiao felt that being a female worker was too poor.

The salary seems to be adequate.

But just taking medicine for a month costs her more than ten yuan.

Not to mention being able to survive as a child.

The money Qiao's mother and three brothers spent on her.

It seems that we still have to do business.

Joe thought about it again.

He He looked at her serious look and muttered softly. He couldn't hear what she said when he got closer, which was a bit funny.

She helped hold the meat in her hand and led her to the yard.

"Again, it's getting late today. Can we go back tomorrow?"

Joe didn't have time to answer yet.

When she looked up, she saw the third brother standing waiting at the door of the courtyard where she lived.

"Third brother." Qiao shouted happily again.

She walked over quickly, "Why are you here?"

"I'm looking for you to go home with me." Brother Qiao looked her around first and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, I've gained some weight."

"I came here to go home with you. It just so happens that I also have a day off and will come back tomorrow afternoon. Your third sister-in-law said that you should also take these two days off, so she asked someone to transfer the work, and we will go back to see mom tomorrow. ."

"But tomorrow is Wednesday, the children are all in school, only Baoya will go back with us."

"Your third sister-in-law has gone back to pick up Bao Ya. You pack your things. We are leaving now. We have booked a tractor to go back to the village. You have to pick up the seat cushions. The tractor is still shaking a little." Third brother warned patiently.

"Okay, third brother, please wait for me." Qiao opened the door to the room again, took a schoolbag, and put books in it, as well as the gifts he usually bought for his nieces and nephews at home.

The cushions were made by Mother Qiao.

She brings it with her every time she goes home.

This is how her precious, soft butt is protected.

before leaving.

Joe took another three catties of meat.

Only then did Brother Qiao realize that it was Qiao who had bought it again.

He quietly stuffed money into her pocket.

Joe accidentally touched it from his pocket when he was on the tractor again.

Mrs. Qiao San was putting a woolen hat on Qiao Bao's head, worried that she would be uncomfortable if her head was blown by the wind.

"Sister-in-law, I also want to wear a hat." Qiao acted coquettishly again.

Sister-in-law Qiao smiled helplessly and put Qiao Baoya into her third brother's arms. She took the hat she had prepared for Qiao Youyou and put it on her.

He took advantage of the opportunity when Sister-in-law Qiao put her hat on and got very close to her.

Qiao quietly stuffed the money back into Sister-in-law's pocket again.

"What did you do to me?" Sister-in-law Qiao noticed it keenly, put on her hat, sat back, touched her pocket, and took out the money.

"Three yuan?" Sister-in-law Qiao said directly: "Xiao Yao, please explain to me clearly what you are giving me the money for."

Qiao felt guilty again.

How could she have expected that the third sister-in-law would be so sharp!
