Chapter 249: Defending Your Wallet to the Death

"I don't know what they are arguing about. They seem to be talking about a house." Lin Xiangnan said seriously, "I just got here and haven't heard much."

Hu Meili looked at Lin Xiangnan with disdain, then turned to ask the auntie next to her, "Auntie, what are they arguing about?"

"Let the people in the yard move out..." The old lady is an old resident of this street. With a little gossip, she can tell all the old stories from more than ten years ago.

Hu Meili was excited when she heard this. "This is not my house in the first place. Now I can get 100 yuan for moving. This is a pie in the sky. If I meet such a sucker, I will move immediately..."

"Mom~" Lin Xiangnan was a little upset.

The lady who was gossiping with me had a different opinion. "Now that we have the money, where will we live in the future? It's hard to rent a house nearby. If we really rent a house in the suburbs, it will be annoying to go to work. One hundred yuan is not even enough to buy a bicycle..."

"It's troublesome, but the house is theirs, and they can't just live there whenever they want." Hu Meili said, "It would be better if they could pool some money together and rebuild the house. At least it's theirs and they can live there forever."

She is one of those who moved from a tenement house to a self-built house. The sense of security there is really different. Living in your own house gives you peace of mind.

The old lady also sighed after hearing this, "Luckily, the house we live in is ownerless. The owner has long since died, so we can live here as long as we want. The people in this yard are just unlucky."

The residents of the yard are unlucky, and the original owner is even more unlucky.

Today, Huang Xiaogang and his team only came to give them notice and considerately gave them time to think. They will come again tomorrow at noon.

So after making those harsh remarks, they prepared to withdraw.

Seeing this, Lin Xiangnan quickly pulled Hu Meili's sleeve and said, "Stop chatting, Mom. Let's go back quickly."

When Huang Xiaogang and others stepped out of the door and their eyes met Lin Xiangnan's, Lin Xiangnan looked straight ahead, as if to say, "I don't know you."

Huang Xiaogang and the others also understood, so they left without saying anything.

They were all neighbors on the same street, and Lin Xiangnan asked them to help in order to protect his reputation and avoid trouble. Of course, they had to avoid suspicion.

Hu Meili looked at Huang Xiaogang and his group and couldn't help shaking her head, secretly complaining, "You are so young, but you haven't learned anything well."

"I can't study, and I don't have a job. I just want to make a living." Lin Xiangnan spoke for them and asked, "Mom, when did you come? Why didn't you tell me?"

"You have classes to attend and you don't have time to pick me up, so it's the same if I come by myself. I know the address and I have the key, so I can just take a look and see what you did while I was away!"

As Hu Meili was talking, she laughed for no apparent reason.

"Are you so happy to see me suddenly?" Lin Xiangnan asked tentatively.

The smile on Hu Meili's face disappeared instantly, and she asked in shock, "How dare you ask such a question?"

"I'm such a good person. Isn't it normal that you miss me?" Lin Xiangnan made a joke, trying to get away with it.

"Don't force me to beat you." Hu Meili took a deep breath, "You are a mother now. I am saving your face."

Lin Xiangnan coughed lightly and changed the subject, "Where are Dabao and Xiaobao?"

"Sleep in your room. They must be exhausted after taking the train."

Because the excitement was not far from her home, Hu Meili felt at ease to come out and watch. In two minutes, they were home.

As soon as the door was closed, Hu Meili's expression changed instantly.

He picked up the bamboo stick that had been prepared behind the door and wanted to beat the man.

Fortunately, Lin Xiangnan was prepared and jumped far away in an instant.

"I was wondering why didn't you scold me just now? It turns out you were waiting for me here! Mom, please listen to my explanation~ Mom~ Mom~"

Lin Xiangnan tried to regain Hu Meili's maternal love.

"You little bastard, you never stop talking... You never tell the truth, and I'm not going to listen to your explanations..."

Hu Meili found out about Lin Xiangnan buying a house when Gu Zhenhua returned home after his vacation.

When Hu Meili found out that Lin Xiangnan spent four thousand to buy a house, she clenched her fists on the spot.

It was Gu Zhenhua who spoke for Lin Xiangnan. "The housing prices in the capital are a little more expensive than in our hometown. The dormitory conditions are too poor. Xiaonan can't get used to it. It's better to have a house..."

Because she found out too early, Hu Meili’s anger has almost subsided by now.

After arriving here, when Hu Meili saw the washing machine in the yard and the TV in the room...she even had a feeling that it was as she expected.

She knew it! No one was watching, Lin Xiangnan was just a boy who spent money.

But Lin Xiangnan was thick-skinned. When he scolded her, she firmly admitted her mistakes and refused to repent. When he beat her, she ran faster than a rabbit. Not only the stick, but even the bullet could not catch up with her.

Hu Meili chased him for a long time but failed. She angrily threw away the bamboo stick in her hand, spread her hands to Lin Xiangnan, and cursed: "Pay me back. You have your own money, but you still insisted on borrowing my coffin money. Do you have nothing to do?"

"You took the initiative to lend me that money, didn't you?" Lin Xiangnan touched his nose awkwardly, "Return it, return it. I'll return it to you right away."

"What do you mean by offering to lend it to you? It was you who said you were short of money for buying a house and insisted that I lend it to you." Hu Meili retorted.

When he came to Beijing to buy a house, Lin Xiangnan did not take the initiative to explain, otherwise it would be a lot of explanation. Since Hu Meili mentioned the money, Lin Xiangnan borrowed money from her.

She had originally planned to return it the next time they met.

Lin Xiangnan took out a stack of money from his bag and prepared to count out six hundred to give to Hu Meili.

"You put so much money in your bag like this?" Hu Meili's eyes widened and she said earnestly, "Tell me the truth. How much money do you have?"

"Not much. Just enough for spending." Lin Xiangnan smiled.

"You damn girl. You're playing tricks on your mother." Hu Meili cursed.

The one thousand yuan used to build the house in his hometown was also given by Lin Xiangnan. Hu Meili suspected that Lin Xiangnan was lucky that time and must have picked up more than one thousand yuan, probably more than ten thousand yuan.

But Lin Xiangnan didn't reveal a word.

"You shouldn't spend money like this. Is the money hot? You bought a washing machine. Did your hand break? Can't you wash clothes? Your family didn't tell you not to heat water to wash clothes..."

Lin Xiangnan counted out six hundred and put it in Hu Meili's hand, then handed her two ten-yuan bills.

"Interest?" Hu Meili's mood improved, but she still kept talking, "And that TV, I don't even want to say anything about you..."

Lin Xiangnan stuffed another twenty yuan into Hu Meili's pocket.

"And the clothes in your closet..."

Twenty more were stuffed in.

"you……"

Lin Xiangnan stuffed all the remaining dozens of dollars in his hand into Hu Meili's pocket.

Hu Meili originally wanted to continue nagging, but Lin Xiangnan had given her too much!

"Do you think you can buy me off with money..." Hu Meili's tone was not firm.

"Hmm?" Lin Xiangnan tilted his head to look at her and decisively reached out to take the money from her pocket.

"You little brat, how can you take back what you gave away?" Hu Meili vowed to defend her wallet to the death.
