My mother tried to persuade her for a long time, but Widow Lin did not agree to lend the money on the spot and said she needed to think about it.

Now Widow Lin finally agreed, even though she only borrowed twenty yuan, it was still a good thing.

She actually asked Widow Lin not to force the loan. What was she trying to do? Really...

Feeling unlucky because of her brother, Wu Xiuxiu looked at her brother and immediately understood his thoughts and intentions from his eyes. She was just about to say that she had an extra twenty yuan and asked Widow Lin not to force her to borrow money when Widow Lin spoke.

"Xiu Xiu, don't worry, I didn't force you.

Last night your mother came to me to borrow money, but I didn't lend it to her right away because I didn't know if she and I would survive this month. You also know our family's financial situation...

After your mother passed away, I calculated carefully. We saved as much as possible and squeezed out 20 yuan to lend you. We can survive this month and make it until next month when the child’s father’s company gives us money, so we won’t starve to death.” Widow Lin looked at Wu Xiuxiu and smiled.

When Wu Xiuxiu heard her words, she was moved and sad.

The Lin family is in a really difficult situation. It's not easy for Widow Lin to make a living with several children... We can't ask Widow Lin for money.

"Auntie Lin, thank you so much. We appreciate your kindness to us. We know your family's financial situation. You lent us 20 yuan. This month must have been tough.

We can’t even let the children have a good meal. They are growing up and can’t go hungry... We don’t want these 20 yuan.” Wu Xiuxiu said.

"Xiu Xiu!" Wu Zhipeng frowned and called out, his voice filled with displeasure and anxiety.

"These twenty yuan were borrowed from mom and Aunt Lin. How could you make the decision on your own and ask Aunt Lin not to lend it to you?" Wu Zhipeng said in a reproachful tone.

"But Aunt Lin's family conditions...we can't let Aunt Lin and her children suffer this month...

I will be responsible for paying the twenty yuan that mom borrowed from Aunt Lin. Please don’t make things difficult for Aunt Lin.” Wu Xiuxiu said.

When Wu Zhipeng heard that his sister was going to be responsible for borrowing the twenty yuan from Widow Lin, all the depression and dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared immediately.

"Since you said so, then okay, when you go to borrow money from Captain Jiang later, borrow an extra twenty yuan from him."

Wu Zhipeng nodded, thinking that his sister had no job and no income, so the twenty yuan she said she was responsible for borrowing from Widow Lin must have been borrowed from her brother-in-law.

With a family background like my brother-in-law and such a high official position, he must be very rich. He can afford to borrow an extra twenty yuan from him, so there is no need to worry.

"Xiu Xiu..." Widow Lin looked at Wu Xiu Xiu and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Aunt Lin, what's wrong? Just say whatever you want to say. Are you talking about the twenty yuan? No need to mention it. You don't have to force yourself to lend it to us. I can give you twenty yuan." Wu Xiuxiu smiled gently at Widow Lin.

Widow Lin's eyes flashed and she said "hmm".

"Aunt Lin, we still have something to do. Let's go now. We can talk again when we come back." Wu Zhipeng thought there was nothing more to say and wanted to leave.

Wu Xiuxiu wanted to leave with him, so she said goodbye to Widow Lin and was about to go, but Widow Lin stopped her.

"Xiu Xiu, wait a minute. My eldest son is in elementary school now, but you know he has always been a bad student. He always can't do his homework. He couldn't do a few questions in last night's homework. He was afraid that he would be scolded by the teacher if he wrote it carelessly, so he left it blank...

You were a good student when you were in school, so I thought I would take up some of your time. You can come into the room with me and teach him the questions he didn’t write.”

"Okay!" Wu Xiuxiu agreed without thinking.

She can definitely solve the problems for primary school students.

Although Wu Zhipeng wanted his sister to go to his brother-in-law to borrow money earlier, he thought that since his sister had agreed, it would be difficult to stop her. Anyway, it was just a few quick questions and it wouldn't take much time.

So he said, "Xiu Xiu, you and Aunt Lin go into the house and teach her eldest son how to do the exercises. I'm leaving first. See you at noon."

He would not be back until noon after get off work, so he told his sister to meet at noon. He hoped that his sister could borrow money from his brother-in-law smoothly and see the money when she came back at noon.

"See you at noon, take care, brother." Wu Xiuxiu nodded with a smile. After watching her brother leave, she followed Widow Lin into the Lin family.

Widow Lin closed the door as soon as she entered. Wu Xiuxiu didn't think much about it and smiled, "Aunt Lin, your eldest son hasn't gotten up yet? I don't want to see him. Go and wake him up so I can teach him to do his homework..."

"In the future, if he encounters something he doesn't know how to do, you can bring him to my house to find me, or let him come to me himself and I will teach him." She said enthusiastically.

"My eldest son is already in school. He said last night that his teacher asked him to go early this morning because there is going to be some activity and they have to prepare early." Unexpectedly, Widow Lin shook her head and said something that surprised Wu Xiuxiu.

Wu Xiuxiu was stunned, "Then you..." You lied to us, didn't you?
