Chapter 49: To each according to his needs

In bed with Mandy, Lip really enjoyed it.

However, Lip is well aware that he is not in love with Mandy, only with her.

Mandy knows that, too.

During a bed exercise, Mandy said "I love you" to Lip when she was in love, which made Lip, who was in the mood, lose all interest and hastily burst into trouble.

Since then, Mandy has known Lip's mind and put herself in the right place.

She knows that Lip, who has been admitted to the University of Chicago, has a great future, and although she is also expected to go to college, there is still a big gap between her and Lip.

Mandy is a good girl with self-knowledge, and it is already a very lucky thing for her to meet Lip at this time, and she does not dare to ask for more.

Although Lip sometimes feels a little sorry for Mandy, especially when she is serving her in bed, but emotional matters cannot be forced.

What's more, a more exciting college life is still waiting for him, how can he confess himself early?

Lip now lives a very regular life, and usually sleeps until 90 o'clock in the morning before getting up.

When you get up, go to the fridge to find something to eat, fill your stomach casually, go to the backyard to work out, sweat profusely, come back and take a shower, and then do it yourself and cook a hearty lunch.

Reborn from the empire of big foodies, even if Lip is not good at cooking, he can also fry a few home-cooked dishes, although it is not full of color and flavor, but it is much more delicious than the United States, except for the food that is grilled and cooked.

After the sisters ate his food, they had already promoted him as the number one chef of the Gallagher family, especially Debbie and Carl, who had tasted real Chinese food in Chinatown, and admired Lipp's craftsmanship with Chinese characteristics.

Although Lip didn't plan to be a full-time chef for his siblings, it was summer vacation now, and he had nothing to do, Fiona had to go to work and couldn't come back at noon, Debbie and Carl were working for him, and Ian hadn't seen anyone all day, so he had to cook the meal at noon.

In fact, when it comes to heartiness, there are actually no few dishes and soups, at most you can make a potato brisket, braised pork ribs, fish-flavored shredded pork or something, but compared to the original sandwiches, waffles, and pasta at home, it is already quite hearty.

After lunch, Lip went to the backyard to repair his car until more than three o'clock, and then went out with Kevin to the playground and stadium in the nearby neighborhood to "serve" the people.

At five or six o'clock, Fiona had already left work and was preparing dinner.

After dinner, Lip would sometimes sit in the living room with everyone and watch TV for a while, and more often than not, go back to his upstairs room to practice his guitar or prepare for a college course.

If Mandy stayed at Gallagher's house, Lip would go to bed at eleven o'clock, talk to her for half an hour, and then fall asleep, and the next morning, when Mandy was about to get up, Lip would pull her to exercise in the morning if she was woken up, and if she was not woken up, of course she would go back to sleep.

If Mandy doesn't stay overnight, Lip will read until one o'clock in the morning and then turn off the lights and go to bed.

Fiona has a regular job, and Debbie can earn pocket money from Lip, so the Gallagher family no longer does illegal daycare work, and the house is very clean.

Although Fiona was busy with work and had no time to take care of Liam during the day, before the summer vacation, this job was Lip's, and now that the summer vacation is over, Debbie and Mandy have taken this job from his hands so that Lip can be more leisurely.

The house to the right of Gallagher's House was bought by Jimmy for full money, and after Jimmy ran away to Costa Rica, the use rights were temporarily owned by Lip.

The homestead to the left of the Gallagher House has not been built and has been empty, becoming a playground for the children of the neighborhood.

Lip teamed up with Kevin and Ian to build an octagonal cage-like swimming pool there for everyone to cool off in the summer.

At nightfall, it's where the Gallagher family stays, along with Kevin, Veronica, Mandy, and others.

Debbie, Carl, and Liam in the pool frolic and have water fights, and Lip, Fiona, Kevin, and Veronica sometimes rise up and participate in them, but more often than not, they will sit on the side with a bottle of beer, drink and chat, and pass the most comfortable time of the day.

However, there was not much time for such a comfortable time, and Fiona, who couldn't be idle, saw that she didn't need to worry much about things at home, so she and Veronica went to find a part-time job at night and worked as a waitress in a bar.

Although she now has a stable job, she will be able to become a regular job soon, and after becoming a regular worker, her work benefits will be greatly improved, which is not only enough to support her family, but also allows several younger siblings to enjoy medical insurance, and her future is quite bright.

However, Fiona, who has suffered too much before, has always had a sense of insecurity in her heart, and she has always wanted to make more money.

Even if the younger siblings in the family, except for the young Liam, are no longer in need of her support, Fiona herself wants to earn more money and improve her living situation.

Especially after meeting a jasmine woman in Debbie's life class, Fiona was exposed to middle-class family life.

She wants her younger siblings to live like that, and she wants to live like that herself.

When Fiona and Jasmine first came into contact, everything was fine, but recently, Fiona discovered that Jasmine was not the person she imagined.

Jasmine's husband was sent abroad a month ago because of work, and Jasmine didn't go with him because she had to take care of the children, and the husband and wife were separated.

However, Jasmine didn't leave the room alone!

Fiona discovers that Jasmine soon has a man named David next to her.

This David is over fifty years old, has a solid family, and of course has his own family.

Jasmine and him are not considered to be involved in each other's families, neither of them is considered a third party, they can only be regarded as taking what they need and using each other.

A rich man like David likes to be accompanied by beautiful women, but he is afraid that unmarried girls will entangle him, like Jasmine, who also has her own family and is a blonde beauty of the right age, just right for his requirements.

Jasmine is with him, not all for his money, at least many of them are with him purely for money, like call girls and business companions.

Of course, David willingly spent money for her and gave her some valuable gifts, and Jasmine would not pretend to refuse.
