Chapter 8: The stingy brother
"Isn't that what the family fund is like? Doesn't Dad get any money now?"
As soon as Meng Yuanliang finished speaking, his mother said unhappily, "Your father never received it!"
Su Mei was so angry when she talked about this that she was too lazy to ask her daughter how she knew about this.
"No way, hasn't this fund been established for 30 years?" Meng Yitong asked in disbelief when she heard this.
This kind of family fund was originally prepared for the children in the family.
Meng Yitong and Meng Yuanliang are the third generation of the family, and they are not very liked by Grandpa Meng and his family, so it doesn't matter if they didn't get it.
How come Mr. Meng, the eldest son of the family, didn’t receive any money? !
Mother Meng looked at her daughter's surprised expression, curled her lips and said, "The old lady was very calculating in the past. Fortunately, she is gone. Otherwise, you would have to bear the grievances this time."
As Mother Meng was talking, she saw Meng Yuanliang grinning in the corner and immediately changed the subject, saying, "By the way, Yuanliang, you have to give half of that money to your sister. Without your sister, you wouldn't get the money today."
"Got it, Mom! Thanks, sister!" Meng Yuanliang has been talking since he received the call from his sister.
There was no way, he was really short of money.
In the circle of the second generation in the capital, there should be no one more miserable than him.
A monthly pocket money of 50,000 yuan is not enough for an 18-year-old freshman boy.
Not to mention driving luxury cars like his friends who grew up with him, he even has to wait for a sale to buy a pair of sneakers.
Even though the money hasn't been distributed yet, Meng Yuanliang has already figured out in his mind how to spend it when he has it.
Unfortunately, just as his wish was made, his hope was shattered by his sister's words.
"Ahem, well, give me the money for the first two months."
Meng Yitong spoke a little embarrassedly.
Although she didn't want to spoil the fun at this time, there was no other way, she still had more than 600,000 in foreign debt!
"Why!" Meng Yuanliang seemed to have heard a bolt from the blue.
No way. Not only will I not get a penny for the first two months, but I will also have to lose my original 50,000 pocket money.
"I am useful!" Meng Yitong answered hesitantly.
She was really embarrassed to let the original owner's mother and brother know that the original owner was actually keeping a young man outside and was in debt because of it.
Although she didn't do it, in the eyes of others, it was her who did it. Meng Yitong didn't want to face this kind of socially disastrous scene.
"You are in debt too?" Meng Yuanliang guessed the truth immediately when he saw Meng Yitong's embarrassed look.
That’s what he said! His sister usually spends money so lavishly, how can she spend 50,000 yuan a month? It would be strange if you didn’t owe any debt!
In fact, what Meng Yuanliang didn’t know was that his sister not only received 50,000 yuan from the family fund every month, but also 100,000 yuan in subsidies from Meng’s father and mother.
But this money is still not enough.
"Yi Yi, do you owe anyone money? Why didn't you tell mom that you needed money?" Su Mei became anxious when she heard that.
"Mom, I opened a shop with a friend before, but we lost money and owed some money." What Meng Yitong said was true.
It’s just that the original owner only lost 40,000 yuan when opening the store, but Meng Yitong plans to put all the foreign debts on this matter.
After all, it sounds better to lose money in business than to borrow money to support a gigolo.
After listening to this, Su Mei looked at Meng Yitong with a speechless look, opened her mouth several times as if wanting to say something, and finally went to the bathroom without saying anything.
She is now afraid when she hears the word "doing business". There is no other way. She is afraid of being compensated by Mr. Meng.
Back then, she was the daughter of a well-known coal boss, and she married into the Meng family with a fortune worth more than one billion yuan.
At that time, he was young and energetic and did not want to be bullied by the Meng family, so he directly dragged Meng's father out to start a business. He started businesses dozens of times and not only lost all the family property, but also owed hundreds of millions of foreign debts.
Finally, the two men returned to the old house in shame, and from then on, they never dared to mention the word business again.
It seems that Yi Yi has inherited her father's bad habits and loses money in everything she does.
Su Mei thought of this and sighed deeply. She now only hoped that the Qin family would be able to support her.
"Sister, you are so lame. Fortunately, I didn't listen to you before." Meng Yuanliang complained mercilessly.
Meng Yuanliang recalled that a few months ago, his sister came to coax him into investing his New Year's money.
Fortunately, he was smart enough at the time and felt that his sister was unreliable, so he resolutely refused to agree. Otherwise, he would have been in a worse situation than he is now.
When Meng Yitong heard him say this, she also remembered the time when the original owner complained to her best friend about her stingy brother.
Meng Yitong looked at the tall, handsome, youthful boy in front of her and found it hard to imagine that he was a person who liked to buy clearance products and was very cost-conscious.
"Then why did you run so fast after receiving my call this morning?" Meng Yitong responded mercilessly.
Maybe it was because the original owner looked so much like her, or maybe it was because this family was too warm, Meng Yitong completely immersed herself in it in just one night.
Now in her heart, the original self is another self in a parallel world, bold and unrestrained, and this is also the way she most desires to live.
I don’t know if it’s a change in her mentality or the influence of her original body, but since she traveled through time, Meng Yitong’s former cautiousness seems to have slowly receded, and what’s left is only infinite courage and enthusiasm, which makes her whole body full of strength.
"Hehehe..." Meng Yuanliang scratched his head and smiled awkwardly when he heard that.
Meng Yuanliang also felt that he did something wrong and refused to pay when asked to do so. Giving him money and running away faster than a rabbit does not seem to be a good idea.
