After dinner, Su Ning hesitated for a long time before finally going to her uncle's house with her father.
Su An and Su Ning followed behind Su Qiang. When they arrived at their uncle's house, they were still eating. Su Ning and Su An did not go inside, but kowtowed to their grandparents at the door.
Her aunt got up and helped her and Su An up, then smiled and placed the plate of candy in front of Su Ning.
"Ning'er, Xiao An, come and grab some peanuts and candy. There's not much good food at home, so pack more."
Su Ning hurriedly waved her hand in refusal, while Su Tian's indifferent words came from the main room.
"Just take it if my mom gives it to you, what's with all the fuss?"
Su Ning paused in her pulling, took the candy from her aunt and put it in her pocket, while Li Xiaojuan glared at Su Tian.
"How can you talk like that? Ning'er is your younger sister, and you don't act like an older sister at all."
Although Li Xiaojuan envied Li Mei for having a good daughter, her daughter was also quite good, just a bit temperamental.
She knew what her daughter was thinking. The Zhu family boy didn't like Su Tian. You can't force a relationship. She had watched Su Ning grow up. She had always been well-behaved and pitiful since she was a child.
Su Lei quickly finished his dumplings, pushed his bowl away, stood up, and pulled Su Ning out. Su Lei was his uncle's son, and at twenty-four years old, he was engaged but not yet married.
The old lady didn't say a word from the moment she saw Su Ning until she left, and the old man, being afraid of his wife, didn't dare to talk to Su Ning either.
Su Lei led Su Ning to the corner. "Little sister, can I talk to you about something?"
Su Ning smiled, her eyes crinkling. This older brother and Su Tian had protected her very well since she was little. The three of them were closer than siblings. It was a pity that she was no longer her sister's little shadow.
"Little sister, when are you going back to Hong Kong? Can you take me with you? I heard that the people there are very rich, and I want to go and try my luck."
Su Ning didn't know how to bring it up. Money was easy to earn there, but you had to be alive to spend it.
"Brother, you need a visa to go to Hong Kong. Without a visa, you'll be caught for illegal entry. Can you get a visa?"
Su Lei paced back and forth, as if trying to think of a solution, when suddenly he stopped and looked at Su Ning.
"Do you have a visa? I heard that's really hard to get. How can I get one, bro?"
Su Ning didn't know that He Ci had arranged her visa. It seemed like the visa was easy for He Ci, but Su Ning didn't want to trouble him.
"Brother, do you really have to go to Hong Kong? Have you discussed it with Uncle? Do Grandpa and Grandma agree to your going?"
Su Lei grabbed Su Ning's shoulders, his eyes full of seriousness.
"Little sister, please help me out, I need money. I heard it's easy to make money there."
Su Ning didn't know what he wanted the money for! If Su Lei went to Hong Kong with this kind of mentality, she wouldn't take him even if she had the means.
"Brother, are you short of money? How much do you need?"
Su Lei didn't hide anything, "Little sister, to tell you the truth, I've found a girlfriend. She's from the county town, and the condition for marrying her is that I have to own a house in the county town."
"You know how hard it is to make money here. I heard that you can earn enough to buy a house in a year in Hong Kong."
Su Ning hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Brother, how much money do you need?"
Su Lei didn't know why Su Ning asked that, but he answered honestly anyway.
"I asked around, and a three-bedroom apartment in our county costs 60,000 yuan. You can pay in full or take out a loan."
“I don’t have that much money. The whole family has only scraped together a little over 20,000 yuan. I still need 40,000 yuan. You know we don’t have any relatives who can help us.”
Su Ning thought of the card He Ci had given her, which still had 50,000 yuan in it. She had already covered the money she had earned at the flower shop over the past few months.
"Brother, does this mean you won't go to Hong Kong now that you have this money?"
Su Lei's eyes were filled with hope. "Yes, with money, I can buy a house, get married, have a wife and kids, and a warm bed. Who would want to travel far away then?"
After thinking for a moment, Su Ning decided to lend him the money. Regardless of his motives, she didn't want her brother to be in a difficult position. Hong Kong was in chaos, and she didn't want anything to happen to him.
