Chapter 192 All the money is spent
“It’s delicious! If dinners are of this level in the future, I fully support Tianxiu becoming the official head of our Kang family!”
The next day's dinner, in addition to the hard dishes decided at yesterday's meeting, also included some after-dinner fruits, which were so delicious that they looked expensive. Azu sighed as he ate the cherries.
"Hey, hey, I treated you badly before?" Lao Dou was not happy at this. Azu's words seemed as if he had done a poor job as the head of the house before.
Azu smiled and did not answer, but everyone understood the meaning. I just felt that Lao Dou was too lonely and cold, and the food was not rich enough.
"How much did you spend today? Come here and pay the bill." After eating, the second brother asked everyone to go to him to pay the bill. Tianxiu was still young and didn't know how to make accounts, so the second brother became his assistant and was responsible for the cashier. and statistics.
“I spent one hundred and twenty-seven yuan and seventy-two cents buying vegetables today.” Xiu Gu, who was responsible for buying vegetables and cooking, said, and the two men nodded and wrote it down in the ledger.
The boss came over with a receipt and said: "I bought sixty-five pieces of fruit today, please help me record it."
The second guy was surprised, "Six Fifteen yuan to buy fruit? Are you going to eat it?” I don’t buy the expensive ones, so I always buy the most expensive ones. Didn’t you just say it’s delicious?” Boss Guang retorted.
"Sixty-five yuan for a meal of fruit, of course it's delicious." The second guy took note angrily.
Then the second sister-in-law and Azu reimbursed more than 200 yuan for daily necessities and 150 yuan for CDs and DVDs respectively. Kang Qirui and Zhu Wanling both shook their heads and sighed. They spent almost 600 yuan on this day. piece.
How can a household of 3,000 yuan last for a month?
But neither of them said anything. They agreed to let Tianxi be in charge, so no matter whether it is good or bad, it will only work if the results are tested.
For the next period of time, the Kang family basically had sumptuous meals of fish, meat and meat every night. Everyone was very happy and had no idea of not having enough money to spend.
"Grandpa, I don't want to cook tomorrow night. I plan to have a barbecue with the whole family. What do you think?" On the evening of March 18, Tianxiang and Lao Dou were discussing tomorrow's plan.
"According to Pa? I have no objection, but it's very expensive. Do you have that much money?" Lao Dou frowned. He felt that going to a Western restaurant for the whole family was too luxurious.
Tianxiu was also confused. He really had not considered the issue of money. The second brother had always been doing the accounting, and he didn’t know how much money was left.
He went back to the room and found the second guy. After doing the calculation, the two of them were stunned. There were only fifty-three yuan left from the three thousand yuan, and today was only the 18th.
The second brother had no choice but to call the whole family together for a meeting.
"What kind of meeting are we having so late at night?" Everyone was surprised.
"Young man, are you making a mistake? Are you having a meeting so late at night? I'm about to go to bed." Azu complained. It's almost twelve o'clock now. It's true that he, an office worker, is still awake. I can’t get up tomorrow.
"The good times are over." Kang Qirui said with a smile. When he suddenly asked about a meeting so late, he could think of only one possibility with his toes, that is, he ran out of household supplies.
“Ah? The good times are over? What do you mean?” Azu was confused.
"A Rui is right, there is an economic crisis in our family this month, and the situation is very serious." Old Dou said with a bitter face. The second brother had already been angry with him when he arrived.
"Ah?" Azu didn't quite understand. What kind of economic crisis was it? "Due to Kang Tianxiu's improper housekeeping, the food expenses for a month were 3,000 yuan, and now there are only 53 yuan left." Lao Dou informed everyone of the truth. The second brother and the second sister-in-law were too shameless to speak out themselves.
"What? Fifty-third? It's only the 18th. There are still thirteen days before the end of the month. How will you spend the rest of the day?" Azu asked in shock. .
"That's right, there's still half a month left, how can you survive? How do you manage Tianxiu." Ayao also blamed.
"I also want to live a better life for you." Tianxiu explained aggrievedly.
"This month, Tianxiu really responded to everyone's requests. Tianxiu satisfied everyone with whatever they wanted to eat, see, play, and we can't blame Tianxiu alone." Kang Qirui said something fair.
"I think this is the responsibility of adults, and children don't know how to manage ledgers." Azu thought for a while and said. What he said was very clear, which meant that the two men, the second brother and the second sister-in-law, did not help Tianxiu manage the accounts properly and did not discover the problem in time.
"Fourth uncle, what do you mean?" Second sister-in-law suddenly became excited, "You also have a share of food, and how many CDs have you bought in the past half month? Ah? Does anyone else read those CDs besides you?”
“I bought a lot of CDs, but Tianxiu agreed,” Azu argued.
"You just said it, what do children know? If you want to buy it, he will buy it for you." The second sister-in-law mocked, Azu did not expect the boomerang to come so fast, so he could only be embarrassed Xiaoxiao, it’s hard to speak again.
"Okay, now the question is how to use these fifty-three yuan to get through the end of the month." Seeing that everyone was silent, Lao Dou raised the main issue of this meeting.
"Old Dou, as you said before, if you don't make it to the end of the month, your guardian will subsidize you." The boss Guang also said with a hint. What he meant was to let the second brother and second sister-in-law support the family and spend this month normally.
Of course the second brother and the second sister-in-law are not willing, "How about this? We all spend the money together, why should we just make up the money?"
The boss still wants to When he said something, Lao Dou immediately made up his mind, "Okay, stop arguing, it was decided like this at that time. And A Zong, don't feel wronged. What A Zu said just now is right, you have the ledger in your hand." In charge, who can you blame for your own failure to control expenditures in time? "
"What's going on now? Is there a deficit? There are still fifty-three, which means there is no deficit." II. The man's mouth became stiff, and he naturally refused to admit that he was wrong.
"Second Brother, don't tell me that you plan to use these fifty-three yuan to survive until the end of the month, right?" Kang Qirui heard the second person's voice-over.
"No way? What's so difficult about this? How many people used to pay just a few yuan for a month." The second man said firmly, and then asked Tianxiu: "Zai, fifty-three yuan." Do you have the confidence to live the rest of your life? "
"I..." Tianxiang shook his head helplessly. He really didn't know what to do.
"It's okay, there's still Old Dou here. Wait for you, Old Dou, and I'll teach you what it means to be diligent and thrifty. In the past, you, Old Dou, and I couldn't spend less than five yuan a month." The second brother patted his chest and boasted. road.
Everyone looked at the second guy dumbfounded, what was the price before and what is the price now?
Fifty-three yuan to survive thirteen days, isn't this a dream?
