How did he save the money?
This question was as strange as how he spent the money.
Unknowingly, it disappeared, and unknowingly increased. It was amazing.
Normal expenses:
Buying two sets of clothes during the change of seasons would cost more than 1,000 yuan at most. Winter clothes were more expensive, and summer clothes were cheaper.
Buying hand cream and facial cleanser about once every three months. Spending about 1,000 yuan a year was still very difficult.
Phone bills for both of them added up to 50 yuan a month. They used WiFi at home, and only used a little data when traveling with a bag. Daily rent was very cheap.
Bag … So far, he only had a teddy bear bag, which he carried like a treasure every day.
Traveling was mostly in Jiangcheng, watching a new movie, drinking milk tea, or fishing by the river. Going to the amusement park was a big expense.
Meals were usually out once a week to half a month. But as Jiang He's culinary skills improved and he learned more and more dishes, he lost interest in going out …
Gifts were very few. He didn't wear any makeup, nor did he buy any lipstick. He didn't use any facial masks and played games every day. He slept early and woke up early, and his skin was as tender as anything else.
Books were considered to be the same level of expenses as clothes at first. After the bookshelves were full, he didn't buy much.
Then …
Then there were the usual expenses, such as changing a big pillow or buying a new fishing rod.
Xu Qing did some calculations and found that since Jiang He came, it was only in the first few months that he brought her to experience things that she hadn't seen in the modern world.
Since the beginning of this year, expenses had been sharply reduced. He didn't need to spend much on food, clothing, housing, and transportation — buying clothes was an expense, but on average, it was only a small amount for twelve months a year. It was not even as much as his losses or profits in the stock market.
Looking at the stocks he bought a few months ago, it had fluctuated for half a year and was now rising by 8%. It was far from his expectations, but it was enough to cover his expenses.
In this way, he had made a pure profit for a year.
Xu Qing scratched his head. Before Jiang He came, money was unknowingly spent. He took turns to treat Wang Zijun and the others to karaoke a few times. When he was free, he would drink wine and eat skewers, order takeout to improve his meals, and buy lottery tickets when he was free …
The things that he needed to spend money on were all taken care of by Jiang He. Jiang He himself did not spend much money. Did their wallets become a reservoir?
"What are you calculating?" Jiang He took a long time to understand where the shock in his heart came from.
Buying a house meant that she was going to have a home.
How nice …
"That's why we can save so much money." Xu Qing looked up and said, "You stay at home playing games every day, and I watch dramas every day … You don't have to spend money when you go out occasionally, and you can even bring all sorts of stuff back."
Halfway through his sentence, he suddenly froze. Bloody hell … that's the root of the problem.
In the past, he had to spend some money every time he went out. Now, when Jiang He went out, he carried eggs, laundry detergent, an umbrella, and fish …
"I stay at home and study every day. How can I play games?"
Jiang He was very dissatisfied with his prejudice. "Moreover, what nonsense is there? Look at this water cup. I bring it along when I go fishing. I don't even need to buy drinks from that broken machine. "
As she said so, she poured a large cup of water into the water cup and put it into her bag. "Let's go to the north district for a walk."
"Wait, come over and give me a hug first."
Xu Qing sat on the sofa and waved his hand. Jiang He went over and was hugged tightly.
She thought for a moment, then leaned over and fell onto the sofa.
"I only thought it was fun before, but now I realize that you're a treasure." Xu Qing buried his head in her neck and inhaled. It tickled Jiang He, and she could not help but shrink her neck.
"Are you a puppy?"
"Don't move. Let me give you a good hug."
Xu Qing closed his eyes and felt the warmth from Jiang He's body. His heart was unprecedentedly calm.
Throw away everything and don't think about anything. Life will develop as it should, and things will get better day by day.
Is this what it means to bring good luck to a husband?
Love, love.
Jiang He leaned in his arms and rolled her eyes a few times. "What are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking …"
Xu Qing said slowly, "I suddenly feel that life is like playing the stock market. You stare at this and that every day, wanting more, but it's hard to develop as expected. It's easy to make mistakes because of anxiety. Instead, calm down and hold on to what you have now. As time goes by, it's easier to find surprises."
"I don't understand."
"I've read a book. There's a man named Sun Wen who was destroyed by extreme anxiety."
"Are you anxious?"
"I used to be anxious. I was always unsure if I should listen to my dad … Sigh."
Jiang He lowered her head and held her breath against his shirt.
Thump, thump, thump. A slow and powerful heartbeat entered her ears.
It suddenly felt a little hot.
"We don't even have a car. Let's walk. It's not like we can't live, right? If you keep telling me that it's hot when we go out in the summer and cold when we go out in the winter, I might get anxious. "
"We should go to the north district." Jiang He wriggled uneasily.
"Actually, isn't it comfortable to have air conditioning and popsicles at home?"
Xu Qing opened his eyes and looked out of the window. He let go of her and took out two popsicles from the fridge. He gave one to Jiang He and put his phone and wallet in his pocket to go out with her.
Although he said it, he still had to accompany her.
July. Considering that they were going out of the city, he picked up the umbrella hanging behind the door and waited for the bus station outside the neighborhood.
"Do you want to try the taste of mine?" Jiang He held up the blueberry-flavored ice cream and asked.
"You've already licked it." Xu Qing felt that Jiang He wanted to taste his ice cream.
"… Hmph."
Jiang He was angry. It was not like they had never swapped ice cream at home.
"Do you want to try mine?" Xu Qing asked.
"No."
"Let's swap."
"Disgusting."
"Right. You look like a modern aboriginal now. If you zoom in half a year ago, it should be …"
What kind of reaction should it be?
He would not take the initiative to ask. If he asked, he should just look at him expressionlessly.
Xu Qing was thinking about Jiang He's reaction last year. Jiang He could not help but stretch his head over and bite a piece of his ice cream.
He had wanted to try his ice cream, so he took the initiative to ask if he wanted to try hers.
"You've changed a lot." Xu Qing thought about how he looked before and looked at Jiang He now. He was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with flowers and blue wide-legged pants. His hair was tied up with a hair tie. His face was clean and fresh, and his eyes were lively.
The environment had changed people. They could never go back to how they were when they first came. That was good.
Seeing Xu Qing's eyes, Jiang He swallowed the ice cream in his mouth and asked, "How big?"
"Big enough … My previous caution was not without reason. You used to be like an autistic child. If I had known earlier, I would have brought you home half a year later. It would have been perfect."
"I don't think so. Isn't it still the same?"
Jiang He turned around and looked down at himself.
He seemed … a little fat?
"Did you notice that you're fat?" Xu Qing's annoying voice sounded. "Is the Qinggong still good?"
"How would I know?! You don't let me run too fast! "
"It's good to be a mortal."
Xu Qing shrugged. Looking at the bus coming from afar, he turned on his phone and was about to scan the boarding code.
In fact, he was not very fat. He held it in his arms. It was warm and soft, much more comfortable than last year's Spring Festival.
"You don't seem to like fat people?" Jiang He glanced at the ice cream and took another big bite.
"Why do you say that?" Xu Qing did not understand who she was referring to. Was it Gong Ping? Or was it referring to modern people?
"I see people calling thin people skinny, and when they call fat people fat, they call them dead fat."
"Just ignore those people."
One of them scanned the QR code and the other used the bus card. After two beeps, the two of them got on the bus and went to North City.
When they arrived at North City, they still had to walk for about an hour to reach the field that Jiang He went to last time.
She was very stubborn, and Xu Qing could not do anything about it. Fortunately, the two of them were agile. Xu Qing had a foundation in pole-standing. He held an umbrella over Jiang He's head and accompanied her to look at the field outside.
After staying in the city for a long time, facing the noise pollution of high-rise buildings and car horns all day long, it was necessary to go outside the city for a walk. Xu Qing felt that this might be the reason why Jiang He liked to go fishing by the river.
"Wow, this is corn?" Jiang He, who searched for strange things on the Internet all day long, did not need Xu Qing's explanation to recognize the large patch of green in front of him.
"Yes."
Ding!
Brought the heroine to the corn field to check-in. Rewarded heroine's happy mood + 1.
Xu Qing entertained himself in his heart.
