Chapter 83: Standing here as a door god?
Shen Meng glanced at Lu Zhenping, turned her head, and when she turned back, her eyes were already full of tears, and she had lost her stubborn look just now.
"What are you talking about, Dad and Mom? How could I possibly hit Dad? I am just a married woman. My husband is not at home all year round. I am a woman with a child, and I have to make a living carefully. Every time I send money, my mother, Xianglan Jiaojiao and two sisters-in-law say it is useful. I have to borrow a few dollars from time to time. There is very little money to spend on me and the child in a month. Even the brick and tile house we lived in when we got married, I gave it up as soon as my mother asked, and lived in the dilapidated house in the old courtyard with my child. Isn't it for the sake of family harmony that everything will be prosperous? It's a pity that I, a daughter-in-law, have to live in a dilapidated house in the old courtyard. She thought that this was enough, but she still thought that I was restless, sob, sob... I, I really don't want to live~......"
Most of the people in the village knew about these things before, but Shen Meng felt that Lu Zhenping didn't know that women's tears are sometimes very useful. Her face, coupled with her sobbing, Shen Meng felt that it was very lethal. After solving the problem here, she could still use the reason of being angry to prevent Lu Zhenping from entering the room at night. She felt that it was very feasible.
Lu Zhenping: "......"
How did she change from stubborn to weak in an instant, and how could she shed tears just like that?
He observed carefully, but still couldn't find the trick. He could only blame it on the fact that he had suffered too much injustice.
His wife showed weakness, and seeing Mingyang's children so distressed, he looked at Liu Sanjin and Lu Changzhu.
"Mom and Dad, don't use the banner of doing this for my own good. Don't I know whose good you are doing this for? It is obviously inappropriate for Shen Meng to fight back. How can she fight with her father-in-law!"
Lu Changzhu and Liu Sanjin were so worried when they heard him say this. Before they could speak, Lu Zhenping continued, "But it will be bad if my father-in-law finds out. If he does something, I won't stop him. But since Shen Meng just said it, then mother and my two younger brothers and sisters , just pay back all the money you borrowed from Xiao Meng before, and mother should also prepare to pay back the money borrowed from Miaomiao and Lanhua. There are so many people watching, it’s not good to shirk the debt. "
The two of them had sullen faces and had been arguing for a long time. Not only did he think about Shen Meng's parents knowing what happened today and wanting Shen Fugui to beat him up, he was also calculating the family's money. This bastard was really born in vain. If he had known that he was so outgoing, he should have strangled him when he was born.
"You...you are really my good son! Humph!"
Lu Changzhu turned around and left. Liu Sanjin wanted to follow him when he left. Wu Xianglan and Zhou Jiaojiao shrank their necks. Paying back the money, where can you go? All the money you took before has been spent without a penny left.
"Hey, don't leave. You have to give me an explanation."
"You, Lu Zhenping, do you still have any behavior of a son or daughter? Today you put your parents' faces on the ground. What do you want? Are you crazy?"
People outside also started to talk. When Lu Zhenping sent his allowance and letters home before, everyone would come up to praise him. Why is he like this this time? He only thinks about his wife when he comes back, and doesn't think about his parents at all. If they had given birth to this thing, it would be better for them not to have it.
Zhou Jiaojiao and Wu Xianglan, as well as Lu Jiahe who wanted to take the opportunity to run away, also felt that their eldest brother was like a crazy person. He used to be friendly when he came home. When has he ever been so extreme?
Lu Zhenping lost his leisurely expression. He straightened his face and stared at everyone with cold eyes. This changing expression made people slightly stunned.
"Mom, there are some things I don't want to say so clearly. Do you still remember the Dragon Boat Festival at home when you were five years old?"
Liu Sanjin's face froze. She squinted her eyes and looked at Lu Zhenping in disbelief. Then she retreated with a trembling body, nervously grasping her sleeves, looking left and right again, and finally calmed down before looking at Lu Zhenping again.
"You, you know...Okay, okay, Miaomiao and Lanhua borrowed money from Xiaomeng, I'll pay it for them first, I'll go home and get it, tell Jiaojiao and Xianglan to quickly return the money to your sister-in-law."
After she finished speaking, she ran away trembling. Lu Jiahe took the opportunity to run up to support her, wiping the sweat from his forehead in fear.
Wu Xianglan had no money at all, and Shen Meng never looked down on her and never lent her much money. Now in front of so many people, she could only shamelessly say: "Brother, look, I have no money. Can you write me an IOU? I will pay you back. I will definitely pay you back in the future, haha, haha!"
"Mingyang, take out the paper in your schoolbag and ask your aunt to write an IOU. Remember to ask her to put her fingerprints on it."
Lu Mingyang said "Hey", and immediately took out paper and pen from his schoolbag and handed them to Wu Xianglan. Seeing that he couldn't write, he looked at his father who was giving orders.
Lu Zhenping said "tsk", and reluctantly helped to start writing.
Wu Xianglan spoke too fast, Zhou Jiaojiao couldn't stop even if she wanted to. She did have a lot of money in her hands. In addition to the money brought by her parents, there was also the betrothal gift given by Lu Jiaxuan when they got married, and the money she deducted from the old lady. Almost all the money she spent was the money she coaxed from Shen Meng.
She pursed her lips. It was too embarrassing to write an IOU. Now it was the last word to pay back the money. Only by coaxing her eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law and letting them calm down, her Jiaxuan's job could be saved.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm going home to get it now. Life was hard at home before, and I only dared to ask you for money when I was desperate. Now Jiaxuan can go to work, and I don't care about anything else. As long as he is well in the future, I can have a future. Sister-in-law has been wronged today, I will ask Jiaxuan to buy some meat for you at the supply and marketing cooperative for your health. I'm going home to get the money now, brother and sister-in-law, wait a moment!"
She turned and ran away. No matter how Wu Xianglan called her from behind, she would not turn back. The money in her hand was useful, and it was impossible for her to pay back Wu Xianglan's debt. Their family was a bottomless pit. Even if she helped to pay back the debt, she would never be able to get it back in the future.
After putting away the IOU, Lu Zhenping smiled and said to the people who were still outside: "I have things to do at home, so I won't keep you all here. We can talk later."
He closed the door and locked Lu Jiasheng who had been standing beside him. He picked up the bag on the ground and looked at the mother and the other two who stood up.
"Go back to the house, are you still standing here like a door god?"
Shen Meng looked down at the little ones. It was already this late, and they would definitely be late for school. Moreover, they had been making noise for so long, which would definitely affect the children's studies.
"Don't go to school this afternoon. Tomorrow, I'll take you to school to talk about the situation. Don't let you be punished to stand."
Mingyang and the others obviously didn't want to go either. They stared at Lu Zhenping's back with an inexplicable sense of wariness. Shen Meng almost laughed out loud. Good boy, now he's on the same side with her.
