"Actually, it's not impossible to borrow a sewing machine. We're all from the same village, so it's normal to lend a hand to each other."
When everyone heard this, they thought Lin Ran was going to agree on behalf of her parents, and they were grinning and very excited.
I will have a sewing machine to use in the future!
But then Lin Ran changed the subject.
"I know that Aunt Qin's family not only has money saved, but also meat coupons. It just so happens that my family has used up all their savings on buying a sewing machine, and now they can't take out a penny. I wonder if Aunt Qin would be willing to lend some money to my family?
I'd like some meat tickets too. I'm craving meat too.
Don't worry, I will pay you back immediately when my family has money!"
Aunt Qin's face changed when she heard this and she denied it repeatedly.
"My family doesn't have any money, let alone meat coupons. What can I lend you?"
After saying that, she quickly retreated behind the crowd, fearing that Lin Ran would borrow money from her again.
Lin Ran ignored her and turned to look at other people.
"Aunt Zhao, I heard your family just got a piece of red cloth. Could you lend it to me to make a red skirt?"
Aunt Zhao exploded on the spot.
"How can that be! I'm planning to keep that piece of red cloth for my wife!"
Lin Ran randomly pointed to a few more names, and in an instant, almost all the team members took several steps back in fear, fearing that Lin Ran would borrow something from them.
Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but smile in her almond eyes, but she pretended to sigh and said:
"Alas...it seems that the villagers are not as willing to help each other as I said."
Now everyone finally understood Lin Ran's intention, and their faces turned blue and white, which looked very beautiful.
But they didn't dare to blame Lin Ran.
After all, when Lin Ran asked to borrow something from them just now, they refused without hesitation.
How could they expect others to agree to lend them their more expensive sewing machines now?
But knowing is one thing, it doesn't affect their discomfort at all.
Lin Weiguo and Shen Wenfang breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Lin Ran had persuaded the villagers to stop asking to borrow sewing machines with just a few words.
Song Yunlu, who witnessed the whole process, couldn't help but reveal a hint of contempt in her eyes.
It's just a sewing machine, but it's not worth it for these people!
She really didn't understand why Shi Yan liked a country girl like Lin Ran.
Apart from being pretty, she has no other qualities.
Even the way he speaks and acts reveals a sense of pettiness.
It’s just borrowing a sewing machine, no big deal.
But these country folks probably spend their days either farming or gossiping.
Although she looked down on these people, she had to admit that her fear of Lin Ran had decreased a lot.
As for such a village girl, she believed that Shi Yan was only temporarily deceived by Lin Ran's appearance, but after spending some time with her, he would truly understand that there was a huge gap between him and these country people.
By then, Lin Ran will naturally pose no threat to him!
…
Naturally, no one knew what Song Yunlu was thinking.
The people here waited for a long time for Lin Weiguo and Shen Wenfang to speak, and immediately understood what they meant.
Seeing that borrowing a sewing machine was hopeless, some people started to think about sewing plane tickets.
Lin Ran had previously told Song Yao and Song Yunlu that the ticket was borrowed from Shi Yan.
So at this time I can only tell the truth.
When everyone heard that it was borrowed from Shi Yan, their eyes lit up instantly and they immediately swarmed around Shi Yan.
"Shi Zhiqing, do you still have any sewing tickets? Can you lend me one?"
"If you don't have a sewing ticket, any other ticket will do."
"Shi Zhiqing, I don't want to borrow tickets, can you lend me some money?"
“…”
Lin Ran looked at Shi Yan, who was surrounded like a fat sheep, and felt a rare sense of guilt.
It was the first time that Song Yao had seen such a scene, and she was so scared that she hid behind Shi Yan.
When Song Yunlu saw Shi Yan frowning, obviously not wanting to deal with these people, she immediately felt that her chance had come.
She immediately stepped forward, stood in front of Shi Yan, and shouted at the group of unruly people:
"Please stay away from us immediately. Are you trying to borrow money or rob us?
This is the first time I see everyone coming over to borrow money and tickets. Is this the norm in your team?
Then I have to ask the leaders above, what era is it now, and how can they still let so many bandits out there! "
Everyone was a little curious when they saw Song Yun showing up, but they immediately stopped when they heard what she said.
"How can you talk like that, little girl? Who are you calling a bandit? We're all members of the Tashan Brigade, how can we be called bandits? Don't try to smear us like that!"
"That's right, where did you get this girl with such a foul mouth? Get out of our Tashan Brigade right now. We don't welcome you!"
"Get out! Get out!"
“…”
"You guys! You're so barbaric!"
This was the first time in Song Yunlu's two lives that she had dealt with rural people, so naturally she couldn't match their eloquence.
But in order to show himself in front of Shi Yan and to make Shi Yan change his impression of him, he had no choice but to continue to argue with this group of people.
"What's wrong with what I said? How can you borrow money or tickets like this? Whether they have it or not is none of your business, so why should I lend it to you?
And with so many of you coming to borrow, what do you think of Brother Yan?
Why don't you just rob a bank?"
"Rob a bank? What bank? You girl, do you really think we are bandits?"
"Exactly. Besides, we're borrowing money from Shi Zhiqing. It's none of your business. Why would you meddle in other people's business here?"
"Brother Huan Yan, you're calling me so affectionately, what's going on? Are you Shi Zhiqing's lover? So you have to manage his money?"
"Hey... can't this be true? This girl looks unfamiliar. It seems like this is the first time I've seen her. Could she really be Shi Zhiqing's lover?"
Having said that, the wind direction gradually changed.
No one cared to investigate what Song Yunlu had just said, and instead began to explore the relationship between Shi Yan and Song Yunlu.
It would be fine if you didn't see it, but once you do, you'll be shocked.
Why is there a pretty girl standing behind the educated youth?
And look at that girl holding Shi Zhiqing's arm, this action is a bit intimate!
Could this be Shi Zhiqing’s lover?
So who was that girl who was standing in front of Shi Zhiqing just now?
Judging from her attitude of defending Shi Yan, it would be a lie to say that it’s okay.
Could it be that these two are Shi Yan’s lovers?
Everyone's gossipy eyes looked back and forth between Shi Yan, Song Yao and Song Yunlu.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart how lucky Shi Yan was. He was accompanied by two beautiful girls, both of whom were obviously city people.
Shi Yan was already annoyed by the noise of these team members, and now seeing their weird looks, he could not help but hold his forehead with his hand.
He could only quickly explain:
"They are my sisters. They came from Jing City to visit me."
But everyone expressed disbelief.
"What sister? Could it be your sweetheart?"
"I think so too, hahaha..."
Everyone started to tease Shi Yan.
