In the past, whenever his brothers had no money to eat, he would save money from his own food so that his brothers could eat.
Apart from his wife's parents, he values his brothers very much, but as a result, others treat him like a fool!
He sighed heavily, still thinking about how to explain to Lu Shengnan when he got back, when he heard Lu Lin calling him, "Guozhi, wait for me."
When Chen Guozhi saw Lu Lin, he felt like he had seen a savior, and said happily: "Brother, you came to find Shengnan! Let's go back together."
Seeing his enthusiasm, Lu Lin said straightforwardly, "I have something to do with her. You got off work a long time ago, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Chen Guozhi was too embarrassed to say that he had asked someone to pay him back, but they didn't, so he made up an excuse, "He met an acquaintance and got delayed. Where's your sister-in-law? Didn't she come with you? Why didn't you bring her along to sit with you!"
As Lu Lin walked away, he said to him, "I'm busy at the supply and marketing cooperative, and I have to cook when I get home. His grandmother takes care of the baby, and I can't take care of him at the factory. I heard that you got a raise, congratulations."
Chen Guozhi is also a humble person: "Oh, raising a child is hard enough. Shengnan also said that the child has grown up and needs to find a job. If there is a suitable one, please pay attention to it, brother-in-law.
Let's pool some money and get her a stable job. We can be a dual-income family, and we won't have to worry about food when raising a child. This is really worrying."
Lu Lin couldn't help but laugh, "Don't humph at me, I'm not asking you to borrow money, do you want to get it back?"
Chen Guozhi shook his head bitterly, "It's not easy to ask for it. No matter how much you say, he has no money. Can you rob him? If I borrow money from him again in the future, I will be a dog."
Lu Lin also said earnestly: "No matter how good your friend is, can he be better than your wife? Look at what you did? Shengnan said it several times, which time did you listen to it?
Life is about the daily necessities of life. If the money doesn't come into her hands, how can she spend it? You ask her to point fingers at others.
A man should take care of his family first. If you have no money, your friends will not look down on you. "
This hit the nail on the head. Chen Guozhi wanted to hook his head into his crotch and said, "Brother, I was wrong. I won't lend it to you anymore."
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows: "Do you have any money to borrow?"
Chen Guozhi shook his head honestly, "What money do I have? My wallet is cleaner than my face, and that kid is a money-eating beast. How can he eat, drink, defecate and urinate without money?"
As they were talking, they arrived at Chen's house. Chen's mother was squatting by the water pipe washing clothes. When she saw Lu Lin, she wiped her hands and greeted him warmly: "Xiao Lin, you are here. I haven't seen you for a long time. Is the factory busy?"
Lu Lin is also a talkative person. "Auntie, you have to be busy. There are three children to raise at home. His mother and I have a heavy burden. Where is Shengnan? I want to talk to her about something!"
Mother Chen called into the house: "Shengnan, your brother is looking for you."
Just after she coaxed the baby to sleep, Lu Shengnan heard her mother-in-law's hoarse voice. She quickly covered the baby's ears and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't wake up.
This kid is very clingy and doesn't want anyone else except her. She pulled the quilt to cover the kid, turned around and walked out.
Seeing Lu Lin, she waved: "Brother, come inside, if you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk slowly."
Lu Lin didn't bother to be polite with her and walked in. Chen Guozhi brought a stool and made him a cup of tea in a ceramic cup with a hole in it.
Lu Lin looked at Lu Shengnan with a relieved look in his eyes. She had indeed matured now that she had become a mother. She used to yell at them, her brothers.
Lu Shengnan blinked, "Brother, why are you looking at me? I have it on my face? Just tell me what's going on. You're telling me half of it and leaving the other half behind. It's driving me crazy. When did you learn to keep people in suspense? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten?"
The Lu family is full of impatient people. Seeing that she was about to get angry, Lu Lin quickly said, "It's for you. It must be good news."
Lu Shengnan guessed: "Mom and Dad are coming back!"
They called from time to time to ask about her and the baby.
Her mother was afraid that she would starve, so she mailed a lot of dried seafood to her house, and they piled up at home. She hasn’t finished eating them yet!
However, her parents were willing to spend money on her, so that she was looked up to by her husband's family. No one in this family compound did not envy her.
People are vain, and Lu Shengnan is no exception. Who made her want her father to be successful and her mother to be outstanding? Her parents are more ambitious than she is.
Lu Lin shook his head. "That's not the case. My parents have to take care of my brother and sister's kids, so how can they leave? I came here to tell you that you can start reviewing.
My second uncle said that my sister-in-law called him and said that the college entrance examination will be resumed soon. You know, my sister-in-law's mouth is like a blessing, whatever she says is true. "
When Lu Shengnan heard this, she almost dropped the cup in her hand, and the tea in the cup splashed out, scalding her and making her hiss.
Chen Guozhi hurriedly took a dry towel to wipe her and said nervously: "Be careful, soak it in cold water quickly."
Lu Shengnan slapped him away, buzzing like a fly. Is it annoying? He is not a delicate person. What is important is what Lu Lin said.
She suppressed her excitement and whispered, "Brother, are you really going to recover? Oh, God finally has eyes. I want to take the exam."
Chen Guozhi echoed: "I will take the exam even if I fail, and I will support you in your studies if you pass."
Lu Shengnan glanced at him and said sarcastically, "What! You don't want to lend the money to your brother, but want to support my studies?"
Chen Guozhi rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly: "The past is over. I will find a way to get the money back. You are the most important."
Lu Shengnan snorted coldly, "What a novelty! You're even saying some human words. Didn't you get the money? You're just standing there laughing!"
Chen Guozhi's face froze and he lowered his head, not daring to face Lu Shengnan.
Lu Shengnan didn't care whether Lu Lin was present or not. She stretched out her hand and grabbed his ear, twisting it hard. "I think you just don't learn your lesson. Those are your father's, right? If you don't get the money back, don't blame me for turning against you. That's our joint property. Why did you lend the money out without my consent?"
Lu Shengnan is a very shrewd person. She can tell who Chen Guozhi's friends are at a glance.
After repeated reminders, he still thought you were talking nonsense, but now he is begging for mercy.
Chen Guozhi patted her on the back and said, "Shengnan, don't be angry. Tiezhu said he would return it to me next day. If he doesn't, I will carry a hoe and dig up the foundation of his house. You must return every penny you lent me."
Seeing him gritting his teeth, Lu Shengnan sneered, "Aren't they your parents? You don't want to support them anymore? Even if they don't listen to me, you have to lend them the money. Your brothers have made up stories about me, right? They said I was a tigress and a housekeeper, and they wanted to be your boss.
Tsk, a bunch of idlers, they don't have jobs yet, right? If you lend them the money, it's like throwing meat buns at a dog, it will never come back. It's stupid, but you don't listen to smart people, how can you live like this?"
Lu Lin coughed, signaling her to stop while she was ahead. There is no way to train a man the same way as training a dog. She should at least give him some face!
Chen Guozhi doesn't have any major problems, but he has a lot of minor ones. But how can this person be perfect?
Lu Sheng has already given birth to a boy, so her brother can't encourage her to get a divorce. In this era, people are not very friendly to divorced women. Even if they can protect her, there will be rumors.
What's more, apart from loving to borrow money, Chen Guozhi is ambitious, filial, obedient, and a henpecked man.
Compared to those old men who act like they have a fortune of 2.58 million, he is as good as can be.
