Chapter 1215 You are worth it
Aunt Zhang was completely taken aback by the thought of only getting 40 yuan a month. Her family's total savings could probably be counted on one hand.
The few work points she earns each day, when converted into money, probably wouldn't even amount to 40 yuan.
Even now, if workers are working in factories, such a proud job, they probably only earn around 16 yuan a month.
Moreover, food and accommodation are provided, and the work is so simple that you don't have to work in the fields or go out in wind or rain.
At most, she would take care of Shen Chang'an, cook at home, and clean the house.
Shen Chang'an is such a delicate and well-behaved girl that anyone would soften their heart. Taking Shen Chang'an with you would not be a burden, but rather a great thing.
Aunt Zhang said she never expected Lin Qingqing to give her money; that was impossible.
She knew Lin Qingqing well and knew that with Lin Qingqing's personality, she would definitely not let her take care of the child for nothing, nor would she let her come along to the city to help with work for free.
Aunt Zhang had considered giving a few yuan a month, or even providing room and board for free, but she never imagined such a high amount.
Moreover, Aunt Zhang felt that if she could go to the big city and broaden her horizons, she would be different when she came back, at least in terms of her perspective and outlook.
To everyone's surprise, Lin Qingqing directly asked for 40 yuan a month.
Aunt Zhang waved her hand: "Qingqing, I'm not the kind of person who takes advantage of others. I know how you treat our family!"
Every day I take so much stuff from you back home to feed those rascals. You have done my family an immense favor!
I'm just helping you take care of your child, it's not any heavy work. You can give me 5 yuan a month, but I really can't accept 40 yuan!
Life used to be so simple, unlike now where we're toiling in the fields!
If you don't treat your aunt like an outsider, and you give her 5 yuan every month, she'll definitely take care of everything for you. You just need to focus on your studies!
Lin Qingqing could tell that Aunt Zhang was genuinely shocked by the amount and was also genuinely trying to refuse: "Auntie, please take this money with peace of mind!"
We are truly grateful that you were able to lend a hand to Shen Mo and me during this difficult time!
Moreover, you will have to leave your family and career behind and come with us to the capital, where you will be far from home!
We were unfamiliar with the place and the people there, and we were worried that if we hired someone to help us take care of Chang'an, they would mistreat our daughter.
With you by our side, we can do whatever we want without any worries. Shen Mo and I may even do business together in the future!
"We'll really need your help guiding us in Chang'an, so we can focus wholeheartedly on our studies and careers!"
Aunt Zhang still felt that this amount of money was too much!
For Aunt Zhang, 40 yuan was an astronomical sum.
Even if they lived frugally, they couldn't save half of that amount in a year.
If she earns 40 yuan a month, she can stay outside for a year and then come back to build a brick house, with one room for each person.
Aunt Zhang still shook her head: "I can't bear to take so much money!"
I definitely can't take that much money from you. My life is already pretty easy!
"Don't make things difficult for your aunt. If she takes this money, I won't be able to sleep soundly at night!"
Lin Qingqing sighed helplessly and took Zhang Er's hand: "Auntie, believe me, you deserve this money!"
