Chapter 49 We are not familiar with each other,

so we won’t lend money Wang Yanhong married into the Zhou family so hastily, without a matchmaker, without a banquet, and even without setting off a string of firecrackers.

When the children in the village heard that the Zhou family was getting married, they asked for wedding candies, but none of them came.

Wang Yanhong looked at the dilapidated earthen house, which had an old bed that had been used by the two brothers of the Zhou family.

Widow Zhou smiled and entered the house with a bowl of egg custard.

"Yanhong, this happened suddenly and our family didn't have time to prepare. But don't worry, as long as you give us a big fat boy, we will have everything that other families have. Just stay here tonight, and I'll ask the eldest brother to order a new bed tomorrow."

Seeing the egg custard, Wang Yanhong's eyes lit up. She hadn't had any good food since she had a quarrel with Shen Jiale. She

took the bowl from Widow Zhou and wolfed down the egg custard.

Maybe she thought her eating manners were not good, so she explained, "I was not such a greedy eater before, I just became like this recently."

Widow Zhou smiled and said, "I understand, pregnant women are like this, it's not that you are greedy, it's that my eldest grandson wants to eat."

Looking at the appearance of her mother-in-law and her husband, Wang Yanhong suddenly felt that marrying a countryman might not be a bad idea.

She was a city person, and marrying into the Zhou family, they would naturally put her first in everything and hold her in high esteem.

Just like Shen Jiale, Lu Mingfeng treated her like a baby and spoiled her. He would bring a lot of things home from work every day, and prepare breakfast for Shen Jiale when she got up.

...

Wang Yanhong married Zhou Da, and Shen Jiale was in a very good mood.

There are many ways to take revenge on someone, and it is not enough to just kill him.

Live better than her, and then watch her fall into the abyss step by step, and live a painful life. That would be perfect.

Lu Mingfeng was still sleeping. Shen Jiale came back from the field and was about to cook when Tian Liping came.

"Sister-in-law, don't cook, come to my house to eat tonight." Tian Liping came over and took Shen Jiale's hand enthusiastically.

Shen Jiale pulled her hand away without leaving a trace: "Sister-in-law, it's too hot, and I've worked all day, so I won't bother you to do anything."

Tian Liping said: "Mingxuan said that you got married in a hurry and he didn't have time to attend your wedding. He insisted on treating you to a meal."

Shen Jiale said that he would wait until Lu Mingfeng woke up.

Not long after Tian Liping left, Lu Mingfeng woke up.

Shen Jiale told them about Lu Mingxuan's dinner invitation: "Today is not Sunday, why did Lu Mingxuan come back?"

Lu Mingfeng said: "He is a person who will not get up early without profit, it is not as simple as a meal."

"Is he eyeing our betrothal money?"

Lu Mingfeng patted Shen Jiale's hand and said: "The betrothal money is yours, as long as you don't want it, no one will lend it to you."

With Lu Mingfeng's words, Shen Jiale felt relieved.

When he left, Shen Jiale brought some fruit candies.

As soon as he entered Lu Yongsheng's house, Lu Mingxuan came out to greet him warmly.

"Mingfeng, you are so mean. You didn't even inform me of your marriage."

Lu Mingfeng said in a neutral tone, "Brother Mingxuan, you are a busy man. You don't even come home often. How dare I bother you to come back for such a small matter as my wedding?"

Lu Mingxuan smiled awkwardly and asked Lu Mingfeng to sit at the dining table.

Tian Liping asked Shen Jiale to go with her.

Shen Jiale stopped when she saw Tian Liping taking him to the kitchen.

"Let's go, second sister-in-law, Mingxuan bought two fish, let's process them together."

Shen Jiale stood there without moving, and said to Lu Mingfeng in the house: "Mingfeng, I'm going back."

Lu Mingxuan said: "Second sister-in-law, it's time for dinner soon, what are you going back for?"

Lu Mingfeng also came over: "Wife, what's the matter?"

Shen Jiale said: "Sister-in-law asked me to help her process the fish."

When Lu Mingfeng heard this, he took Shen Jiale's hand and left.

Lu Mingxuan quickly asked Tian Liping: "Did you upset my second sister-in-law?"

Tian Liping shook her head: "I didn't."

Lu Mingfeng said: "You invited us to dinner and asked my wife to help cook. Don't we have anything to eat at home?"

Lu Mingxuan blamed Tian Liping: "Why are you so ignorant? My second sister-in-law is a guest. How can you let a guest do work? Second sister-in-law, come in. I have something to discuss with you."

Shen Jiale and Lu Mingfeng looked at each other.

Tian Liping went to the kitchen alone.

Lu Mingxuan pulled Lu Mingfeng into the house and said, "I have arranged a position for you in the factory, and I came back today to tell you."

Lu Mingfeng didn't believe such a good thing.

"But I need to make some connections."

So this is the trick.

"No, I have a job." Lu Mingfeng refused directly.

"I know you are doing temporary work, but it is not permanent. Who knows when you will lose it. Now there is a formal job in front of you. I don't know how many people want it."

Lu Mingfeng said: "People should not be too greedy. If you take one after another, you will end up picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons. I am doing well in this job and don't want to change."

Seeing that Lu Mingfeng was not interested in the job he proposed, when the meal was ready, Lu Mingxuan called Lu Yongfu and Lu Mingqi to eat.

When he mentioned that there was a job now, Lu Yongfu and Lu Mingqi were very excited.

Lu Yongfu praised Lu Mingxuan and said, "I told you that Mingxuan is a capable person and that he would help you find work. Now he has done it."

Lu Mingxuan said, "I was going to give this job to Mingfeng, but Mingfeng doesn't want it."

Lu Mingqi immediately said, "Mingfeng doesn't want it, I want it!"

Lu Mingxuan said in embarrassment, "Your words... are a bit difficult."

"What's difficult? I have absolutely no problem doing the job. I can endure hardships." Lu Mingqi assured.

"You also know how many eyes are watching a job. You have to make some connections."

"How much does it cost?" Lu Yongfu asked.

"Two hundred."

Lu Mingqi took a deep breath. He didn't have enough money for the betrothal gift, so where could he get two hundred yuan?

Seeing that Lu Yongfu and his two sons were silent, Lu Mingxuan said, "Don't feel bad about having to spend so much money in a short time. Think about it in the long run. You have to do your job for a lifetime, so you have to plan ahead."

Lu Yongsheng said, "You are Mingxuan's cousins, so he thought of you first. If you don't have enough money, you can borrow it. But it will be hard to find a job if you miss it."

Lu Yongfu frowned and said, "Brother, it's easy for you to say. The Zhou family has raised the betrothal gift to two hundred, and we haven't even collected enough. Where can we get so much money?"

Lu Yongsheng glanced at Lu Yongfu, then at Lu Mingfeng, and Lu Yongfu immediately understood.

Lu Yongfu said to Lu Mingfeng: "Mingfeng, lend 200 yuan to your elder brother."

Lu Mingfeng said: "I used up all my money when I got married."

Lu Yongfu looked at Shen Jiale again: "Mingfeng, my wife, Mingfeng gave you 500 yuan as a betrothal gift when you got married. It is impossible for you to use it all. Your elder brother needs your help right now. Lend him the money and he will pay you back after he gets his salary."

Shen Jiale said : He said crisply, "No."

Lu Yongsheng accused, "Mingfeng's wife, you are too much. They are brothers, and you don't help."

Shen Jiale said calmly, "Big brother is Mingfeng's brother, not mine. If Mingfeng is willing to help, I won't stop him. But if he wants to borrow money from me, I'm sorry, we are not familiar with each other, so I won't lend him money."
