After Ji Yong finished speaking, no one responded.

My son just said that he couldn’t borrow money. If my wife could borrow money, she would have asked for it a long time ago.

The topic reached a deadlock again.

"I'll go to your Uncle Qian and Uncle Zheng's house first." Ji Yong left without eating.

There were only mother and son in the ward, and Xu Fang spoke, "Jianhua, we are only short of one thousand yuan, otherwise how many days will you spend with your boyfriend? Your uncle will bring the money in a few days. Your father and I went to his workplace today, and he looked unhappy. I was wrong about this, but I thought your uncle was not an outsider, and he was a leader, so he would do what he said."

But I never thought about paying back the money. Brother, I am just like everyone else. If you ask me for money, you are my enemy.

"Mom, did you ask what your uncle was going to do with all that money? He said he would pay it back, but what would he use to pay it back? Have you ever thought about where he would get all that money?" Ji Jianhua told the truth, "If I had known you were lending it to your uncle, I wouldn't have given you the money."

Unfortunately, I realized it was too late.

"I asked him, but he didn't say anything. There's no point asking now because the money has been lent out." Xu Fang still wanted to persuade her son to borrow money from the Luo family, but when she saw her son change the subject and didn't mention it at all, she knew what she was thinking.

"Mom, please tell my grandma. Don't let my uncle cause any trouble. Grandma will blame us for borrowing money and doing something bad in the end." Ji Jianhua said.

"Your uncle has also borrowed all your grandma's money. If I tell your grandma about this, I'm afraid she will be very angry." Xu Fang regretted it so much now.

Ji Jianhua said, "If I wasn't lying in bed, I would have gone over to ask for it. Look at all the money he took. What's happening to our family now? I have to spend Xiaoling's in-laws' money to stay in the hospital. How can she stand up straight in her in-laws' house? I can't help her, but instead I keep holding her back. I don't even have the face to see her."

"It's not like I won't pay it back. Don't think too much about it. Just take care of yourself."

Ji Jianhua pursed his lips and closed his eyes.

How could he forget that in his mother's eyes, no matter what happened to Xiaoling, it was no big deal.

Seeing his mother's attitude, he felt even more uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Ji Yong went to two good friends, but in the end no one was able to lend him money. They all had their own reasons, but when they heard that Ji Jianhua was hospitalized, they couldn't help but blame Ji Yong for not telling them. Finally, when Ji Yong left, he had 100 yuan in his pocket, which was a gift from the two families to Ji Jianhua.

Zheng Pingshun walked into the study and took his son out. "Your uncle Ji wants to come over to borrow money, but Xiaoling won't let me borrow money. What's going on?"

"Ji Ling called me this morning and told me not to lend you money if Uncle Ji wants to borrow it." Zheng Shi muttered, "She said that there have been a lot of things going on at home these days. She will tell me what's going on when we meet later."

Rong Silin came in with some fruit. "Jianhua's factory is doing well, and the furniture store run by the Ji family is not bad either. Logically, they should not be short of money. Where did the money go? I think Xiaoling didn't let us borrow money because she wanted to punish Ji Yong and his wife. I'm afraid they have taken all the money in the house."

Zheng Pingshun let go of his son's ear. "Now that you mention it, it's really possible. Just now I asked Ji Yong what happened to him that made him borrow so much. Did something happen to the furniture store? He said no. If he hadn't been so secretive, I would have lent it to him even if Xiaoling called and told me not to. He and I have a close relationship since we were young. If he asked, how could I not help him?"

At this point, Zheng Pingshun said angrily, "With our relationship, he was still evasive when talking. I was so angry that I didn't lend him the money."

"Okay, now that Xiaoling has explained, I think the Qian family will also explain. Do you want to communicate with Old Qian?"

"Yes, I'll call now."

Qian Shishan agreed on the phone, so when he received Ji Yong's call, he smartly offered to borrow money without waiting for Ji Yong to speak.

"Old Ji, you are a big boss now. Your store was smashed during the New Year, but the money was not lost. I just need money. Can you lend me some money for a few days? I will pay you back when I am free."

Ji Yong didn't even open his mouth to ask for money, but he was still trying to find a reason to say he didn't have it so that his friends wouldn't think too much about it.

So when Ji Yong finally returned to the hospital, he was exhausted.

Ji Jianhua had already fallen asleep. Xu Fang's heart sank when she saw her husband's expression. "Didn't you borrow much?"

"I borrowed money from my relatives in Pingshun, and Shishan said he wanted to buy a house in the city, and he wanted to borrow money from me for a few days." Ji Yong rubbed his forehead, "I didn't earn much at work before, and my family never felt short of money. Now I run my own business, and the money I handle is not small, so why am I still short of money everywhere?"

Why? It's because of her.

Because of her family.

Seeing her husband holding his head in pain, Xu Fang stood up and said, "I'm going to go to my eldest brother's house. You stay with Jianhua."

Ji Yong had no other options, so he told his wife, "Go over and talk to Big Brother about the situation here. If we had a solution, we wouldn't have to keep asking him for it."

"I understand." Xu Fang left.

When she arrived at her eldest brother's house, it was Xu Yujia who opened the door. She called out "Auntie" and turned to go in.

When Xu Fang changed her shoes, she went there and found that her eldest brother's family was having dinner. There were four dishes and a roast chicken on the table, and her eldest brother was drinking.

Compared to the sullen look she had when she went to work in the morning, her face was now full of smiles, "Xu Fang, come here quickly. I was thinking of looking for you tomorrow, but it's a great event."

Xu Hongmei also warmly took Xu Fang's hand and said, "Xiaodu, Qiuping's matter is all thanks to you. Thank you, sister-in-law."

Xu Fang was confused, "Sister-in-law, why don't I understand what you are saying?"

"Qiuping's job has been assigned to the capital. If it weren't for you taking the money, how could Qiuping's problem be solved so easily?" Xu Hongmei pulled him to sit on the sofa. "I went to the capital these days and didn't have a home. I heard that Jianhua was in the hospital, otherwise I would have gone there a long time ago. I just got home tonight and I'm thinking of going there tomorrow."

Xu Fang now understood that her elder brother borrowed the money to arrange a job for her nephew after graduation. It was just that what her sister-in-law said was not true, and she did not take credit for it.

"Sister-in-law, how can I help you? I lent you the money, and you are not unwilling to pay it back. Qiu Ping was assigned to the capital because of his own ability."

Xu Hongmei smiled and said, "If he had the ability, I wouldn't have to run around to get a job now. But fortunately, the matter has been resolved. I'm just waiting for his job assignment after graduation."

"Yes, Xiaoling is also in the capital, so they will have someone to take care of their cousins ​​in the future." Xu Wangting took a sip of wine, "You came here to talk about money, right? Now that Qiuping's problem has been solved, I will go out and lend you some money in the next few days. Don't worry, your sister-in-law and I will pay you back even if we have to sell everything we have."
