"Give us some advice."

"I don't have any good ideas. It's up to you guys."

Zhou Jingli said shamelessly: "Although you don't have any good ideas, you have money, so please lend us some."

"Haha, I'm not a bank. You got the wrong person."

"I knew you were stingy."

He said this with a grunt and left.

Wu Shengli and Zhao Youcai looked at Li Mingqing embarrassedly.

Originally, they came alone, but when they came out, they met Zhou Jingli. When he knew that the two of them were going to look for Li Mingqing, he insisted on following them.

"Ming Qing, we're leaving first."

"Okay, if you have time, you can go to the Youth League Office and ask. If you want to build a house, you have to talk to the village chief and get approval for a homestead."

They don't know that there are so many things involved.

Fortunately, Li Mingqing told them, otherwise they would know nothing.

"If you hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known that we came here for the right reason. Okay, go back now. You don't have to come out to see me off."

"It's okay. I'm just going to get some firewood at the door."

The next afternoon.

The people from the Youth League Institute came back dejected.

I went to the educated youth office to ask, and found out that not only was it impossible to return to the city, but new people were also being asked to come.

If three or four more people came to the earthen kang, they would be squeezed to death.

"What are your plans?"

"We are from the city after all, so there must be a lot of people who want to marry their daughters to us."

Zhou Jingli said confidently.

Zhao Yongmei disagreed, "I don't think so. Who would want their daughter to suffer when they don't even have a place to stay?"

"You should worry about yourself," Zhou Jingli said, and then said: "How about we -"

She rolled her eyes. "Don't overthink it."

She really couldn't agree with his character, there was absolutely no possibility of this.

"If you return to the city in ten years, you'll be an old maid and unable to get married."

"You should worry about yourself first."

"I still have to go look for Li Mingqing. Do you want to go?"

Wu Shengli said, "Don't go."

He just went there yesterday, and from the tone of his voice, he seemed to be going there to borrow money, or to be more precise, to ask for money.

Isn't this just thinking about good things?

Zhao Yongmei said, "We won't go. We don't have the nerve to do that."

"If you don't want to go, then don't go. Shengli, Youcai, aren't you going either? Don't tell me you have money. We live together all day long, don't I know how much you weigh?"

"You can't ask for it if you don't have money."

"Who else can I turn to if not Li Mingqing? You? Are you willing to lend it to me?"

Zhou Jingli said this in a sarcastic tone and went to Li's house.

I met Liu Jiajia halfway carrying a basket.

"Oh, isn't this Zhou Zhiqing? He looks a lot older after not seeing him for a few days."

"none of your business."

"It makes me happy to see you having a hard time."

"Tsk, don't gloat over this. We can't go back to the city for a while. But whether you marry a villager and return to the city or not is none of your business. You'll have to live in the village for the rest of your life."

Liu Jiajia held back her anger and said, "You can't leave unless you return to the city, and you're still blaming me."

Zhou Jingli was in a hurry to go to Li's house and stopped arguing with her.

But she was curious and wanted to see what he was going to do.

In front of Li's house.

Sun Jiaxue was holding her child and chatting with Yang Daya.

Zhou Jingli asked straight to the point: "Is your husband home?"

"I'll be back soon."

"Forget it, I'm telling you the same thing. I want to borrow some money from your family."

When these words were spoken, Liu Jiajia laughed out loud.

"Pfft, borrowing money, hahahaha, you can't even say that, it's embarrassing."

Sun Jiaxue said, "Zhou Zhiqing, there's no extra money at home. Go back and think of another way."

"No money! I don't believe your family has no money. I'm just borrowing money to build a house. I'll pay you back next year. I'm not the kind of person who borrows money and doesn't pay it back."

Liu Jiajia burst into laughter again, "Hahaha——"

"You! Shut up!"

"I just don't. I've never seen anyone as shameless as you."

Sun Jiaxue and Yang Daya looked at each other, and could see confusion in each other's eyes.

When Li Mingqing came back on his bike, Zhou Jingli and Liu Jiajia were still arguing.

Wang Dazhu also came over.

He pulled Liu Jiajia aside and asked, "Why are they fighting again?"

"He was the first to attack. Do you know what he came here for? If I tell you, you will definitely laugh your ass off."

She laughed as she spoke.

She had completely forgotten the time when the Wang family mother and son and she came to the Li family to borrow money.

Zhou Jingli said, "Mingqing, you're finally back. I have something to tell you. I'll be frank. We went to the educated youth office this afternoon to ask, and we really don't know when they will return to the city. Many educated youth are on their way to the countryside. I know your family doesn't need any money, so I wanted to borrow some."

"Didn't I tell you yesterday that I have no money?"

"You are being unconscionable when you say that."

There was quite a commotion here, and Wu Shengli and a few others also came over.

Zhao Youcai whispered, "It's really embarrassing."

"Yes, the villagers are all watching. It's really embarrassing. Zhou Jingli really has no way of getting himself killed."

Zhao Hongbin said, "Whose money came from the wind? You say it so naturally. Why don't you lend me some money? You're just thinking about good things. Ming and Qing are not the God of Wealth who gives away money."

Li Goudan also said: "That's right, you educated youth are outsiders after all."

"Yeah, if you don't know the root cause, who knows if you will return it when the time comes."

It's rare for villagers to speak up for Li Mingqing.

Yu Huaizhi and Wang Mudan came over together, carrying small baskets in their hands.
