Chapter 299 - She just wanted to stock up enough resources so that she could happily welcome winter when it came (1)

Song Tingshen's words were of course very moving, and Ruan Xia was touched by it. However, their financial situation wasn't what it used to be. Who knew how the plot would develop in the future? Who knows if they would be able to change it for the better? So after a brief moment of blushing and her heart speeding up, Ruan Xia quickly returned to normal. She shook her head with difficulty. "I'm not short on money. I don't need your credit card. I just think… It's not easy for you to make money. I want to learn to keep accounts and save a bit whenever possible. This will positively affect Little Wang too. He'll learn to not waste money when he grows up."

"Of course." This was a perfect opportunity to educate Song Tingshen. "We can't count on the housekeeper for everything. I'm not doing much at home anyways. I'll just treat it as exercise. Besides, if we can save a bit, we should. Her salary is enough to pay for an ordinary family's expenses."

Song Tingshen: "..."

The father and son pair washed their hands and came to the dining room. Ruan Xia even scooped out rice for them. As soon as she sat down, she looked at them expectantly and urged them to eat.

Little Wang didn't have any reservations at all. He picked up a chicken wing from the plate and started eating. As he ate, he mumbled, "So yummy!"

The food market wasn't dirty, but it had a smell, so Ruan Xia quickly finished her grocery shopping and went home. It was still early. Little Wang had lunch in kindergarten with his friends. Song Tingshen seldom came home to eat dinner during this period, but she still sent him a message on WeChat to ask if he would come home for dinner. After getting an affirmative answer, Ruan Xia concentrated on studying recipes.

Although Ruan Xia wanted to find a job as soon as possible, it didn't mean she would accept just any job. During the interview, she truly understood Song Tingshen's comment that the economy was now in recession. Coming out of the somewhat aged office building, she was downhearted. She had suffered a big blow. Many companies had contacted her for an interview, but there weren't many that were good. After all, it was the end of the year… She might as well take her time to find a job. Maybe things will turn around at the beginning of the next year.

As the New Year approached, the housekeeper aunty asked Ruan Xia for time off due to family matters. Ruan Xia generously gave her extended leave and said she could come back after New Year.
