she is like the night moon

Chapter 20 For her there is only one shortcut

With Jiang Tiantian's help, dinner was quickly prepared.

After eating and waiting for a while to digest, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother went to bed.

The Jiang family doesn't have anything for entertainment, so going to bed earlier can save some electricity.

Jiang Tiantian stayed upstairs and did her homework in the attic.

It is said to be an attic, but it is actually Jiang Tiantian's junior high school. Considering that she should have her own private space when she grows up, Jiang's father asked the neighbors to artificially separate an inch of space.

Even the stairs that go up are made of wooden boxes and tin boxes that are not used by other people's homes. If you step on it, it will creak and creak, and it looks like it will fall apart at any time.

So in normal times, Jiang Tiantian is very careful when going up and down the attic.

……

After spending an hour writing this week's homework, Jiang Tiantian opened another notebook that was given to her by others who had used it but didn't want to use it.

Those who write and draw on it calculate the money saved by the family now.

The Jiang family rarely buys vegetables, so their daily expenses are not much, only a few hundred dollars a month.

But Jiang’s father and mother Jiang are both disabled and unable to work. They usually only make money by pasting boxes, washing clothes for others, or picking up waste products. In fact, they can’t make much money in a month.

Not to mention, when she was a child, she had a serious illness and was hospitalized. Jiang's father and Jiang's mother begged her grandpa to sue her grandma for a few thousand dollars.

This amount of money may not be a big deal to other families, but it is a huge sum of money to the Jiang family.

In the last few years, Jiang Tiantian has grown up, and she often gets bonuses for her excellent studies, and she usually does some part-time jobs, participates in some competitions and earns some money, and then slowly pays off.

Jiang's father and Jiang's mother were reluctant to use some of the rare money left.

Even when he was sick, he didn't dare to go to see it. He would rather endure it and save it for Jiang Tiantian to study in college.

That amount of money was not much, plus the 1000 yuan that Jiang Tiantian brought back today to save, it looked like 8000 yuan.

Basically enough for Jiang Tiantian's tuition fee for one year.

As for living expenses?
In fact, Jiang Tiantian can wait until she is in college and work part-study is not too late.

But Jiang Tiantian is still working hard to do part-time jobs. In order to save more money, even in the third year of high school, she dare not concentrate on her studies.

Because she made a decision early on—

Even if she goes to college, no matter where she is, she must bring her parents with her.

Of the two of them, one is bedridden, the other is blind, and they are left alone in Haicheng. What if something happens?
Jiang Tiantian was not at ease at all.

But when the family of three went to rent a house and buy new supplies, they must have spent much more money than she lived on campus.

And Jiang Tiantian also hopes to let them live a better life, so she can only save a little more money before she goes to college.

However, worried that Jiang's father and mother would object, Jiang Tiantian didn't tell them when she made the decision.

In Jiang's father's and Jiang's mother's view, the reason why she desperately made money and saved money was because her family was too poor, which made her afraid of being poor.

Therefore, after persuading her daughter many times to no avail, coupled with the fact that her daughter is indeed independent, Jiang's father and mother did not dare to intervene too much because of guilt, so they let her go.

……

Jiang Tiantian felt a little headache when she saw the pitiful savings that she had worked so hard for but still had a small amount.

At this time, she always wished that she could grow up overnight.

In this way, she can earn more money faster and bring a better life to her parents.

But no matter how anxious she is, she can only accept that she is still a high school student.

With a long sigh, Jiang Tiantian opened the book and began to study carefully.

She knew very well that no matter what, there was only one shortcut for the whole family to live a good life.

That is to be admitted to a good university and then find a good job.
