“I’m going to return the things now.”

When the old lady heard this, she said that it was impossible. She had worked so hard to get it back, how could she just give it back like that?

The old lady quickly went up and grabbed Tan Jianguo's hand. "Jianguo, don't go. I'll go later. You don't know how much you should pay back."

"It's okay. I'll go ask and I'll give them whatever they say."

"Is that okay? What if they say too much?"

"If there's more, just consider it as interest." After saying that, Tan Jianguo walked out, and the old lady held him tightly.

"I don't care if you can't go. Your father died early, and I raised you, found you a wife, and took care of your children. Now I'm old and can't do it anymore, and now you start to dislike me."

"Mom, can you please be reasonable? I've told you not to take advantage of others. Life is tough for everyone these days. I'm a team leader and I'm hoping to move up the ranks, but you've offended everyone."

"You don't want me to get better, do you?" After Tan Jianguo shouted at her mother, he saw his wife hiding behind his mother.

Tan Jianguo pulled his wife out and said, "You said you can't do anything at home, and you always urge our mother to go out and take advantage of others. Can't you stop her?"

"How can I stop my mother from doing anything? Besides, she's doing it for the good of our family."

"If you continue like this, go back to your hometown and avoid causing trouble for me here."

"Mom, look at Jianguo"

"Jianguo, what do you think your wife is doing? She's not wrong. If we don't save money, how can we save money to marry my grandson?"

"Then you can't offend everyone. Our family is in such a condition. If I can't get married, then being single is better than you."

"How can that be possible? My grandson can't be a bachelor. I'm counting on him to carry on the family line."

"Mom, I'm just a team leader now. There are officials higher than me. You said you've offended everyone. How can I still move up?"

"Why not? You're no worse than anyone else."

"It's a good thing that the boss you offended didn't fire me. How can you still expect to get promoted?"

"That can't be." The old lady was unsure. What would she do if her son lost his job because of her taking advantage of her?

But when she thought about not being able to take advantage, her heart ached.

"Mom, why don't we go back?"

"No, how about taking up less in the future?"

"It must be returned. Do you still want me to be promoted?"

"Then give the one who is more senior than you, and don't give the rest."

Tan Jianguo had no other choice but to do this for now, paying off these debts first and then finding a way to pay off the others.

The old lady felt so heartbroken that she still took the things and went to return them.

Tan Jianguo also went with them and thanked the owner, thinking that it was really borrowed from his family.

When I arrived at Xie Yun's house, I knocked on the door for a long time but no one opened it. The old lady said to me, "You see, I said they were stingy. Someone in the family didn't even dare to open the door to avoid lending me flour."

"Mom, please stop talking. You did something wrong yourself and you blame others."

"Alright, alright, I won't say anything anymore, okay? You really don't allow me to borrow it and you don't allow me to say it."

"mother……"

Tan Jianguo is so helpless. He lost his father when he was eight or nine years old. It was not easy for his mother to raise him alone.

I remember that his mother was not like this when his father was still alive. It was all because of life.

When he grew up, he passed the exam and became a worker, and was gradually promoted to team leader.

His mother and his wife earned work points, and later when the child grew up he also started working, and their lives got better day by day.

He finally got a house this year and quickly brought his mother over.

He didn't expect that his mother would do such a thing after she came. After returning the things, Tan Jianguo saw that his mother had borrowed a lot.

These things are enough for one person to live on for a month, and the ones that haven’t been paid back are giving me a headache just thinking about it.

After that, Xie Yun's house was quiet for a while. The office also knew about what happened to Tan Jianguo's mother. Everyone was discussing it. When Xie Yun was asked, she just smiled. The news spread very fast.

Xie Yun went home by herself after work that day, as Qin Minghao was on a business trip again.

When Xie Yun was walking home, she always felt that someone was looking at her. She didn't pay attention at first, but later she found that it was a young man with a square face who was looking at her.

When she saw Xie Yun looking at her, she blushed with embarrassment.

Well……

What was going on? Xie Yun took a look and didn't recognize him. He didn't look like a bad person, so she ignored him.

When Xie Yun returned home, she forgot about the matter. The young man watched Xie Yun enter the yard before going home.

If Xie Yun saw which house he entered, she would know who he was.

Tan Chenglong entered the yard, still wondering who that beautiful girl was. He had never seen her before. The person living here must be a family member of the factory staff. He would ask his mother to find out for him later.

"Son, you're back. You can eat soon, whether you're hungry or not. Go wash your hands first."

Tan Chenglong's mother, Lin Cuihua, Tan Jianguo's wife, asked quickly when she saw her son come back.

"Mom, I'm not very hungry." Tan Chenglong answered and went to wash his hands.

The family of four was at the dinner table when Lin Cuihua asked, "Son, you are already grown up. I heard about a girl today who is very nice."
