When Shen Chunshu, who was sitting next to them, heard that someone wanted to borrow money from Hu Lili, he raised his head for the first time.
When Li Xiang saw that everyone was looking at her, she was flattered for a moment and even stuttered when she spoke.
"I...I don't know if I can borrow...borrow it?"
Wang Huilian said nonchalantly, "Whether you can borrow it or not, you have to go and borrow it first to find out!"
What Wang Huilian was thinking was similar to what Li Xiaoqin was thinking.
Anyway, whoever borrows the money should pay it back.
If Hu Lili wants someone to pay back the money, she will ask Li Xiang, because she will not admit it.
Unexpectedly, Shen Chunshu stood up at this time.
"I'll go too. The third son was detained because of Hongmei. The second son's wife went to lobby. Hongmei's mother and I will pay her back later."
Wang Huilian: ......
Li Xiaoqin: ...
Even Old Man Shen looked at his eldest son in disbelief.
When I just said I was going to Li Xiaoqin's parents' home to borrow money, he just sat there without saying a word.
Why are you suddenly standing up and saying so many high-sounding words at this time?
Wang Huilian reached out to hit him in frustration: "Did a donkey kick your brain? Are you stupid?"
Chen Chunshu brushed Wang Huilian's hand away and said, "Put away your little thoughts. Aren't you just thinking of asking the second son's wife to borrow money and then ask her to pay it back when the time comes?"
Wang Huilian: “You…you…”
Wang Huilian's face turned red immediately after being exposed. She didn't expect that her man, who was always smart, would suddenly act stupid at this time.
"Why are you acting so high and mighty at this time? Do you have the money to pay it back? Where are you going to get the money?"
Wang Huilian was like a shrew, hitting Shen Chunshu's body with her hands continuously.
I just spent all my family assets, and now he dares to take the debt upon myself. Is there something wrong with his brain?
Chen Chunshu said impatiently: "Make trouble, make trouble, you just make trouble, you can't solve any problem, you just throw a tantrum, what use do I have for you?"
Wang Huilian didn’t know what was wrong with her. She felt very uncomfortable at the moment, and she couldn’t express the pain in her heart.
She always felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what it was.
Li Xiaoqin didn't care about that. It didn't matter who of the eldest brother and his wife went to borrow the money, as long as they could borrow it.
Hu Lili, who had gone out to visit her friends, knew nothing about what was happening in the east room.
Old Man Shen told Li Xiang: "Speak softly, don't be silly and ask for money right away, talk about family matters first, do you hear me?"
Li Xiang rubbed her fingers nervously and nodded.
At this time, Li Xiaoqin pulled Li Xiang aside and began to teach her how to talk to Hu Lili.
Li Xiang has always trusted Li Xiaoqin.
She felt that Li Xiaoqin was a very nice person, unlike her sister-in-law who always got angry with her.
So she was willing to borrow money to redeem Chen Qiushu this time.
Unexpectedly, when everyone thought the matter was about to be resolved, Wang Huilian suddenly said: "What if she doesn't lend it?"
Old man Shen was so angry that he covered his forehead and said, "My dear wife, can you stop saying such discouraging words?"
But Wang Huilian didn't think this was discouraging: "Why can't I say it? Don't we have to prepare in advance?"
"What if she doesn't lend it to us? Do we have to borrow from someone else?"
She doesn't know why she can't say this?
When you go to borrow money, the result is either to lend or not!
At this time, Shen Limin, who was watching the excitement nearby, suddenly interrupted and said, "Hu Zhiqing came from a big city. Her family should have brought her a lot of money, right? It shouldn't be difficult to borrow three yuan, right?"
Wang Huilian rolled her eyes at him and said, "Rich people are even more stingy. Look at her. She can't even protect the little food she has every day. I don't think it's easy to borrow money from her!"
Chen Chunshu looked at her irritably: "You said it was you who borrowed from her, and you said it was you who couldn't borrow. What do you want to say?"
Wang Huilian muttered, "I...I don't want to borrow money from her now, okay? When you mention her, your eyes light up. If someone doesn't know, they would think there's something going on between you two."
After hearing this, Shen Chunshu was so angry that he raised his hand to slap Wang Huilian, and Wang Huilian was so scared that she had to step back a few steps to avoid it.
Shen Chunshu: "Can you let out some good farts from that mouth of yours? That mouth is like an old lady's foot binding, why is it so smelly?"
"You have a heart that thinks everything is dirty. I borrowed money from Hu Zhiqing for my third child. Stop gossiping about me in the future. If you dare to say anything bad again, go back to your Wang family."
Wang Huilian's face turned red after being scolded by Shen Chunshu, but she didn't dare to talk back again, so she could only turn her head away and sulk.
Old Man Shen instructed Li Xiaoqin and Li Xiang to prepare as much as possible for dinner in the evening, and to show some attitude when borrowing money from others.
Li Xiaoqin frowned.
The food rations at home were not enough to begin with, so I gave some to Zhao Changgui today. If I save the rest, I don’t know if it will be enough to last until the spring when wild vegetables grow.
Now I want to do more, but what should I do in the future?
But Li Xiaoqin had no choice but to obey Old Man Shen's orders.
Hu Lili had enough fun outside and came back when it was time to cook.
As soon as she returned to the Shen family, Li Xiang wiped the water off her hands and asked her with a smile: "Hu Zhiqing is back? Whose house did you go to today?"
As for Li Xiang, Hu Lili knew that she was a simple-minded person.
If it were in the past, she would have disdained to bother with an honest person like Li Xiang, but in Dongliang Village, Li Xiang was exactly the person she needed.
Only someone like Li Xiang could be so willing to work for her.
So Hu Lili was also willing to play a loving role with this good old man.
"Today I went to chat with Liu Xiaoting. The house she lives in is really filthy, not as clean as ours!"
Li Xiang was very happy to hear Hu Lili praising the Shen family: "I don't have any other skills, I just have hard work."
"Hu Zhiqing, please come in quickly. We will be able to eat soon."
Hu Lili was a little puzzled: "I haven't brought you rations yet?"
Li Xiang said with a smile: "You don't need to give me food today. My old man said that he will treat you to a meal today."
Hu Lili raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised: "Why are you so nice today? You want to treat me to a meal? Is this true?"
Li Xiang: "Of course it's real, you can eat it right away."
Hey! ! !
This really surprised Hu Lili a bit!
But since someone is treating me to a meal, I would be wasting my time not eating.
Hu Lili happily went straight into the east room.
As soon as she entered the room, everyone in the Shen family looked at her.
This situation made Hu Lili pause, she frowned, she felt like she was being stared at by a wolf!!!
