Chapter 168 A Man's Confidence
"What do you mean we're done yet?" Xu Yuxiang was stunned. "As a sister, what's wrong with you lending your brother three hundred yuan? It's not like you don't have it. He'll pay you back when he gets his salary!"
"No money!" Su Xiumei was very angry.
She was angry that Su Houli didn't understand what she was saying.
Since he insists on giving Gao Meifeng a betrothal gift, let him do as he pleases. Don't drag these people down.
Liang Kun just came in to get the thermos. When he heard Su Xiumei say that, he casually asked, "Mom, who's out of money?"
"Your uncle is broke!" Su Xiumei deliberately shouted, "I don't know what kind of job he's been doing all these years, he doesn't even have 300 yuan."
Liang Kun walked out with the thermos and asked Su Houli directly: "Uncle, are you here to borrow money?"
Cough cough cough!
Su Houli spat out the tea.
"Drink slowly, no one's competing with you." Xu Yuxiang came out of the kitchen and scolded Su Houli, "You're such a grown man, and you can still choke."
Peng Shumei lowered her head and smiled.
"It's okay, it's okay." Liang Wencai took a tissue and wiped the water stains off Su Houli's body. He was in a good mood and spoke gently. "No matter how much you need, we will help you."
"Not much." Su Houli's face was burning. He had the urge to stand up and leave. For three hundred yuan, he really brought shame to his sister's house.
"Three hundred!" Xu Yuxiang called out the number directly, not treating herself as an outsider. "If you have any, please help him. He will give it to you when he gets paid. After all, everyone has their days when things don't go well."
"That's right." Liang Wencai agreed with his mother-in-law's words. He got up and went to the bedroom, took out 500 yuan and gave it to Su Houli. "Here's 500 yuan. Take it first. We'll tell you if it's not enough."
The last time Liang Kun had an issue, it was Su Jiaojiao who stepped in to resolve it.
Although Su Houli and Chen Guilan are divorced, he is Su Jiaojiao's father and his wife's brother after all, so he will help if he can.
"That's enough." Su Houli felt the five hundred yuan was too hot to handle. He couldn't leave, nor could he stay. Su Xiumei came out of the kitchen with a spatula and said coldly, "Why did you give him so much?"
"You cook your own food. It has nothing to do with you." Liang Wencai waved his hand and poured tea for Su Houli. "In the future, when we are out of tea, we will have to borrow from you. We are all family, so we should help each other."
"Yes, yes, yes." Su Houli responded repeatedly.
"Uncle, are you borrowing money to marry your new aunt?" Liang Kun was peeling an apple when Liang Wencai gave him a cold look. "How can you talk like that!"
"That's right!" Liang Kun handed the apple in his hand to Peng Shumei.
Peng Shumei took the apple and was about to say something when she saw Su Xiumei running out of the kitchen, covering her mouth. She rushed into the bathroom and vomited. Xu Yuxiang followed her in in a panic: "What's wrong with you?"
Liang Wencai also went over and asked, "Are you okay?"
After a long while, Su Xiumei finally came out of the bathroom. Xu Yuxiang, with a happy look on her face, said to Liang Wencai, "Wencai, Xiumei is pregnant."
ah?
Got it?
"Is this true?" Liang Wencai was very surprised.
"How could I lie to you?" Su Xiumei glared at him and went into the bedroom. Xu Yuxiang hurriedly helped her lie down and said happily, "You have a good rest. I'll go cook the fish."
She had long advised Su Xiumei to have a child.
Only when a woman has her own children can she truly gain a foothold in the family. Other people’s children are unreliable.
"Let's go to the hospital!" Liang Wencai was worried.
"You care about me now?" Su Xiumei looked at him unhappily. "If you want to go, you have to go tomorrow."
Before, she ignored Xu Yuxiang's words.
Now she truly understood that only her own children were her real support. Otherwise, she would be kicked out of the house sooner or later.
"Look at you, when did I stop caring about you?" Liang Wencai was very happy and said to Liang Kun with a smile, "You are going to be a brother."
"Hey, celebrate well, we're leaving." Liang Kun was unhappy and pulled Peng Shumei out. "We won't be back for dinner tonight."
"You're so old, and you still want a child!" Peng Shumei whispered, "Liang Kun, you're not an only child anymore."
After the two left, Liang Wencai rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen to help Xu Yuxiang cook. Xu Yuxiang kept nagging him, "Xiumei is so old and has a child. You have to take good care of her."
"I understand, Mom. Don't worry." Liang Wencai responded repeatedly.
During the meal, Su Houli finally felt a little more confident. Su Xiumei was pregnant with his nephew, so it was only right for Liang Wencai to help him.
The two also drank some wine.
As soon as Su Houli drank, he felt that he was full of ability. He talked incessantly about things in the factory, as if he was saying that he was the second in command and no one dared to talk about being the first in command.
He had forgotten that he was here to borrow money.
Liang Wencai warmly invited Xu Yuxiang to stay for a few days and take care of Su Xiumei. Xu Yuxiang also had the same intention and readily agreed.
That night, Su Houli solemnly handed the borrowed money to Gao Meifeng: "I will slowly repay you the rest."
Gao Meifeng accepted the money and was overjoyed: "I will take you home to see my mother tomorrow. She will agree."
After saying that, she shook her head again: "Tomorrow is not possible. An important client is coming tomorrow, and I don't know when I can get off work. The day after tomorrow!"
"What client?" Su Houli lay down on her bed and looked into the inner room. Gao Meifeng understood, "Yuxin went to my mother's house and will be back when school starts."
Only then did Su Houli take off his shoes with peace of mind.
"If I tell you, you may not believe it." Gao Meifeng kept it a secret and let Su Houli guess.
Su Houli was at a loss for words, so Gao Meifeng said, "It was Mr. Yu, the customer for the pajamas order from Jiamei Garment Factory. After Qin Shuang's accident, he visited Jiali Garment Factory and then disappeared. It was our President Kang who personally stepped in to try to secure the order."
"This is great!" Su Houli learned about the pajamas order. "If we get such a large order, we'll have work in two or three years."
"Who said it wasn't?" Gao Meifeng looked at Su Houli meaningfully, making his scalp tingle. "I heard that Qin Shuang wanted to entrust this order to Chen Guilan, but Chen Guilan couldn't take it over. Just think about it, if Chen Guilan took it over, she would be extremely rich."
"She's not an employee of Jiali Garment Factory, so how could she take over?" Su Houli said disapprovingly, "I heard that she's no longer at Jiali Garment Factory."
How could Chen Guilan possibly get such a big order?
Even if she were rich, she couldn't handle it.
"You care about her a lot!" Gao Meifeng snorted coldly, "Do you still want to go back and live with her?"
"I just want to live with you." Su Houli reached out and turned off the light.
Huang Jiajia was very anxious when she learned that Boss Yu had gone to Qimei Garment Factory. She went to the snack street early in the morning to find Chen Guilan to discuss countermeasures. If this order was intercepted by Qimei Garment Factory, they would suffer a great loss.
