“Where would we get the money to build a house? Even if it's not ten thousand, it would still cost seven or eight thousand. We can only afford a simple brick house.” Lu Sen frowned and pursed his lips, a troubled expression on his face.
He Guoqiang sighed, "Yes! The cost of building a house is getting higher and higher every year. Even an ordinary old house costs several thousand yuan to build, not to mention a house built with red bricks and cement, which costs tens of thousands."
Lu Sen didn't say anything more, he just kept sighing.
Seeing that the time was right, He Guoqiang said his thoughts: "Lu Sen, if you really don't have money, I can lend you ten thousand."
"Huh? Ten thousand? If I borrowed it, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to pay it back. You can see my feet now; they need to recover for several months. Even when I can stand up, I'll be a cripple, and I won't be able to find a job. How am I going to pay you back?"
Lu Sen shook his head, refusing He Guoqiang's help.
"Pay it back slowly, I'm not in a hurry, I can still afford it. Aren't we good friends? If you're in trouble, of course I'll help you."
He Guoqiang picked up the teapot and poured hot tea into Lu Sen's teacup.
"You don't need to rush to pay me back. Nothing is more important than your family moving into a new house. Lu Sen, don't you think so? Giving the children a place to live is the most important thing; nothing else matters."
"Sigh, you're right." Lu Sen nodded again, his eyes glistening with tears.
He was almost moved by He Guoqiang.
"Lu Sen, look how good our family is. You've watched my daughter grow up, and she's a pretty good person, isn't she!"
"Yes, Lijuan is a very nice person."
“You know that my youngest daughter has liked your eldest son for many years. I only have three daughters, and not having a son is my lifelong regret. All these years, I have always treated Jingxing as my son.”
"If only he could marry my Juanzi. Lu Sen, you have so many sons, how about letting Jingxing be my son? My family and I will treat him very well."
