But she still stood in front of Lin Yizhen, she really had no other choice.
Her mother was ill and in the hospital, and needed over 300 yuan. But the family scraped together only 280 yuan, leaving them nearly 100 yuan short.
His father was really at a loss, so he sent her a telegram, asking her to find a way to raise a few dozen dollars.
She had no money on her; the fifty yuan she had brought with her had almost been spent. It was the middle of the year, so where could she get the money?
Yesterday, she went to the team leader to advance her work points.
Then, I exchanged all those work points for money. But the total amount was only a dozen yuan, which was not enough.
Afterwards, she borrowed some from a few educated youth with whom she had a good relationship.
But we all came from ordinary working-class families and didn't bring much money with us. Moreover, we had been in the countryside for more than a year, so how could we have much money left?
So, all together they only managed to collect thirty yuan.
Li Yinping was really out of ideas, so she thought of Lin Yizhen. After much consideration, she decided to come over and give it a try.
So, this is why Lin Yizhen saw Li Yinping at her doorstep twice.
Li Yinping saw that Lin Yizhen's face looked a little bad, and she took a step back in fear.
Then, he looked up and carefully said to Lin Yizhen, "Hello, Lin Zhiqing! I want to borrow thirty yuan from you."
When Lin Yizhen heard Li Yinping ask for money, she was very surprised. She didn't seem to know her well. How could she open her mouth to borrow money from her?
Lin Yizhen felt that although she was rich, she would not lend money to just anyone who came to borrow money from her.
Thinking of this, Lin Yizhen directly rejected her.
Li Yinping didn't seem surprised when she heard Lin Yizhen's words.
He simply bowed to her with a look of disappointment and said, "Although you didn't lend me the money, it's already very kind of you to listen to me. Thank you, Lin Zhiqing!"
Her thanks made Lin Yizhen even more confused.
It seemed like I was rejecting her! Why did she bow to me and thank me? Is there something wrong with this person?
But by then Li Yinping had already left, and she couldn't find anyone even if she wanted to ask.
After Li Yinping left, Lin Yizhen pushed her bicycle towards home while talking to Xiaoyu in her mind.
The topic of conversation was naturally Li Yinping who had just left.
Xiaoyu actually didn't understand Li Yinping's behavior just now, but she could see that Li Yinping's mood was not right.
So Xiaoyu told Lin Yizhen about this.
Lin Yizhen was a little surprised to hear Xiaoyu's words, but soon she felt normal again.
Before, she felt that this female educated youth was very measured in her words and actions.
I originally wanted to talk to the villagers to get to know her, but then I got too busy and forgot about it.
However, when I saw her coming to my house today, I thought she was just like the other educated youth, trying to get close to me.
Therefore, my impression of her is much worse.
Unexpectedly, after meeting her, I found out that she came to borrow money from her.
Because of the bad impression, Lin Yizhen didn't want to have any contact with her anymore and rejected her directly.
Now after hearing Xiaoyu's words, Lin Yizhen felt that she might have misunderstood her.
Maybe he really has some difficulties?
Thinking of this, Lin Yizhen said to Xiaoyu: "I misunderstood her. Go ask the other educated youth tomorrow. If Li Yinping really has something urgent to do, then lend her thirty yuan."
"Master, you don't need to ask.
"I just used my spiritual sense to investigate the educated youth camp and heard Li Yinping's conversation with other educated youth," Xiaoyu replied in Lin Yizhen's mind.
After hearing Xiaoyu say that they had found out, Lin Yizhen asked curiously, "Oh! What did they say?"
"From their conversation, I learned that Li Yinping's mother was ill and hospitalized. It cost a lot of money, and their family contributed most of it.
But there was still some money missing, so he sent a telegram asking Li Yinping to help with some.
So, Li Yinping went to advance her work points for the first half of the year and exchange them for money.
But she didn't have many work points, so she borrowed some from other educated youth around her.
I guess it's still not enough, so I ended up borrowing it from you." Xiaoyu told Lin Yizhen all the news she had heard.
After listening to Xiaoyu's story about Li Yinping, Lin Yizhen touched her chin and thought: Since she is really in trouble, let's help her!
It’s not much money anyway, so just consider it as a good deed!
However, how should I give her the money? After all, I had just rejected her.
Forget it, let’s talk about this tomorrow!
I'd better go to bed early today. I've been busy all day and feel a little tired.
The next morning, after waiting for the other educated youth to go to work, Lin Yizhen went to the educated youth camp to find Li Yinping. She took out thirty yuan from her pocket, put it in her hand, and said, "Take this money and use it first!"
Li Yinping was surprised at first when she saw Lin Yizhen suddenly stuffed thirty yuan into her hand.
Then, he happily thanked Lin Yizhen and said, "Thank you, Lin Zhiqing. I will definitely return the money to you as soon as possible."
Lin Yizhen waved her hand and said, "It's okay, you can pay me back when you have money."
After saying that, Lin Yizhen left without waiting for Li Yinping to speak again.
She has to go to Widow Li's house to see Zhuang Weimin!
After all, she is her future sister-in-law, and she has to take good care of her when her brother is not at home.
When we arrived at Widow Li's house, the mourning hall in the yard had already been set up and many people had come.
These people were all from the village who came to help, and most of them knew Lin Yizhen. When they saw her coming, they looked at her curiously.
They couldn't understand why Lin Zhiqing came here?
You know, Lin Yizhen is an educated youth, and a wealthy one at that. I haven't seen her interacting with Widow Li's family before, so why is she here today?
Could it be that something happened that they didn't know about?
However, although everyone was curious, no one would ask Lin Yizhen, and now was not the time to talk.
Lin Yizhen walked across the yard and came to the main room.
I saw Zhuang Weimin kneeling in front of the mourning hall in mourning clothes, throwing paper money into the mud basin continuously. There was an unfamiliar man kneeling beside her.
Although Lin Yizhen didn't know him, she knew that he was Zhuang Weimin's husband Zhong Dabao.
Because even when he was kneeling there, he was still looking around at the people around him with his small eyes. Especially when he saw himself, his gaze was very presumptuous.
Lin Yizhen felt disgusted and looked away after taking a look.
Lin Yizhen kowtowed three times to Widow Li, who was lying in the coffin, and then said to Zhuang Weimin, "Please accept my condolences! Take care of yourself."
Hearing Lin Yizhen's words, Zhuang Weimin looked up at Lin Yizhen, then quickly lowered his head to continue adding paper into the clay basin.
Lin Yizhen quickly left Widow Li's house, but what she didn't expect was that Zhong Dabao also left after she left and stopped her halfway.
In fact, when Lin Yizhen left Widow Li's house, she felt someone following her.
It’s just that it’s not Zhong Dabao.
