Guo Xuezhen pursed her lips shyly, "I, I want to borrow from you..."

"What? I didn't hear you clearly."

Huang Yu really didn't hear it clearly, but Guo Xuezhen obviously misunderstood.

Her originally pink face suddenly turned red, and her expression changed from shy to angry. "Nothing, I'm leaving."

After saying that, he turned and ran.

Seeing Huang Yu still standing there in a daze, Huang Qingning jumped out and pushed him.

"Brother, why are you still standing there? Go and chase him!"

"Ah? Oh!"

Huang Yu chased for a few steps, then ran back again, "What should I say if I catch up with him?"

Huang Qingning stamped his feet speechlessly, "How would I know? I've never been in a relationship before!"

Seeing the brother and sister fumbling around in confusion, Yun Mo had no choice but to speak out.

"Brother Xiaoyu, go ask her if she has encountered any difficulties. If you can solve them, solve them yourself. If you can't solve them, come back and discuss with us."

Huang Yu woke up as if from a dream, and started chasing after Guo Xuezhen. He finally caught up with her after he ran out of the village.

"Xuezhen, huh, don't walk so fast. I didn't hear what you said just now. Huhu, are you in trouble?"

After Huang Yu had caught his breath, Guo Xuezhen blushed and explained in a low voice: "I plan to go to Guangzhou to work with my cousin. We don't have enough money for the bus fare, so I want to ask you to borrow some money. I'll pay you back when I come back at the end of the year."

"You want to go to another province to work?"

Huang Yu himself didn't realize how depressed his tone was.

Guo Xuezhen lowered her head, twisted her fingers together, and stammered, "If I don't go out to work, my mother will force me to get married. I, I don't want to get married yet."

"Is that so? How much do you want to borrow?"

Guo Xuezhen glanced at him and lowered her head again, "30."

30 yuan is not a lot, he already has it.

Huang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, "So when do you want it? Why don't you wait here for me and I'll go home and get it for you."

"Thank you." Guo Xuezhen pursed her lips, "I'll pay you back when I come back at the end of the year."

"It's okay, I'll go home and get it now, wait for me."

"Um."

Seeing Huang Yu running back breathlessly, Huang Qingning and Yun Mo, who were waiting at the door, hurried to meet him.

"Brother, what did your sister-in-law say to you?"

Huang Qingning's call of "sister-in-law" made Huang Yu's ears red.

"Don't shout, she has nothing to do with me now."

Huang Qingning waved his hand, "It's not important. Tell me, why did she come to you?"

"She's going to work in Sui City and asked me to borrow some money for the fare."

After saying that, Huang Yu ran back home to get the money.

Huang Qingning and Yun Mo looked at each other, their faces full of disappointment.

"Oh, I thought she wanted to come to my brother to reconcile."

"Do you still want her to be your sister-in-law?"

"Yes, why not?"

"Don't you mind their family's breaking off of the engagement?"

Huang Qingning shook his head. "Not only did our family not have the money to buy the betrothal gifts, but we also owed a large debt. If it were me, my parents would definitely not let me marry into their family. What's the difference between that and jumping into a fire pit?"

Marry a man, you need clothes and food. If you can't even have enough food, how can you talk about other things? Worried that Yun Mo would have a bad opinion of Guo Xuezhen, Huang Qingning hurriedly said, "Cousin, you can see that she looks kind and gentle. My parents like her very much. Anyway, I think it's better to have a gentle sister-in-law than a fierce and strong one."

That's true.

Yun Mo had a plan in mind, and when Huang Yu came out, she stopped him directly.

"Brother Xiaoyu, this money cannot be borrowed."

Not only Huang Yu, but even Huang Qingning looked at Yun Mo in surprise.

Huang Qingning thought to herself, all the words I just said were in vain, my cousin still doesn’t like my future sister-in-law.

Huang Yu was even more anxious to defend Guo Xuezhen, "Momo, Xuezhen is not the kind of person that Second Aunt is. She said she would pay it back by the end of the year, and she will definitely pay it back."

Yun Mo did not explain, but teased: "Women's mouths are deceitful. Brother Xiaoyu, do you really believe what she says?"

"Anyway, she's a nice person, I trust her."

"Does Brother Xiaoyu like her?"

Huang Yu's face immediately turned red, and it seemed as if smoke was coming out of his head. "Momo, you, me, and Xuezhen are still waiting for me at the entrance of the village. I'll give the money to her first!"

Huang Yu wanted to run away after he finished speaking, but luckily Yun Mo was quick enough to catch him.

"Wait, Brother Xiaoyu, I haven't finished what I want to say."

"Let's talk about it when I get back."

Seeing Huang Yu was in a hurry to run, Yun Mo blurted out a classic line: "Brother Xiaoyu, do you want a wife or not?"

"Ah?" Huang Yu was stunned.

Worried that Guo Xuezhen might be getting impatient, Yun Mo followed Huang Yu towards the village entrance, analyzing the situation with Huang Yu as they walked.

"Brother Xiaoyu, when you agreed to lend me the money, was Sister Guo happy or unhappy?"

"How would I know this?"

"If you smile, you are happy. If you don't smile, you are unhappy. You don't even know this. Are your eyes for venting anger?" Huang Qingning choked like he was setting off firecrackers.

Huang Yu touched the back of his head suddenly, "She didn't smile, but that doesn't necessarily mean she's unhappy. She could also be embarrassed. She's a very thin-skinned person, unlike Qingning."

Huang Qingning: ???

Yun Mo laughed, "Brother Xiaoyu, if Sister Guo really came to you to borrow money, you would definitely smile if you achieved your goal. This is a human instinct.

Unless, her purpose was not to borrow money, so she didn’t laugh after you agreed to lend her the money.”

Huang Yu was a little surprised, "Is it that complicated?"

Yun Mo nodded affirmatively, "Women's hearts are as deep as the sea, this is not an empty statement."

Huang Qingning was no longer angry, and curiously pulled Yun Mo to ask the reason, "Cousin, if Sister Xuezhen didn't want to borrow money, then what was it for?"

Yun Mo looked at Huang Yu with a smile.

"Momo, don't look at me like that, I'm scared."

Seeing that Huang Yu still hadn't understood her hint, Yun Mo couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Xiaoyu, let me be frank. I think Sister Guo is using the excuse of borrowing money to deliberately test your attitude and see if there is any possibility of development between you two."

Huang Yu was skeptical, "No way, she's going to work in Guangzhou with her cousin."

"If she really wanted to go, she would have packed her bags and followed. Why did she come to you specifically to tell you?"

"That makes sense!" Huang Qingning agreed with sparkling eyes.

"She came to me because she didn't have enough money for the trip."

Yun Mo crushed Huang Yu's defense with one sentence, "The Guo family has so many relatives, how can they not gather together the 30 yuan for the travel expenses? At worst, Guo's cousin came back from working outside, and even if she doesn't have much, she can still come up with 30 yuan."

Huang Yu had no way to refute it.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the village entrance, Yun Mo couldn't help but urge, "Brother Xiaoyu, what do you think? If you like Sister Guo, let her stay. If you don't like her, just give her the money directly, and don't say anything else."
