The only methods Ye Yan could think of were these two.
Grandpa's house is nearby; we can go for meals there to save on food expenses at home, which will allow Dad to send money, and then there'll be enough money for school and new clothes. Besides, he has more than enough money to spend on his own.
Lu Jiang took him outside, patted his head, and whispered, "Our family isn't short of money. The salaries of your aunt and me are enough to cover these expenses, big and small. Plus, your dad often sends money. I'm educating your three younger brothers. I heard that during this time in Shanghai, Lu Erxiong spent a lot on buying this and that."
Ye Yan quickly said, "The younger brothers didn't waste money. They spent more than usual, but everything they bought was useful. Dundun and Zhuangzhuang teamed up to buy sheepskin vests for Uncle and Aunt, and the money was given by Grandpa Cheng and Grandma Cheng specifically for us to buy things."
