Xu Wangting didn't dare to defend himself.

"Since you are in charge, you should solve the problem yourself. I don't care if you borrow money from others. Just return the money you took from your sister and me tomorrow."

"Dad, give me a few days. It's not that I don't want to pay it back, but I've been busy with Qiu Ping's affairs these days. Besides, it's really hard to borrow such a large sum of money."

"I don't want to hear this." Father Xu interrupted him rudely, scolding his son, but his eyes fell on his daughter-in-law, "Did you borrow money from your father-in-law?"

Xu Wangting opened his mouth and said, "I know he doesn't have much money."

However, Xu Hongmei clenched her hands guiltily.

Father Xu sneered and said, "I don't think you have no money, but you are reluctant to let your father-in-law take the money, so you can only ask your sister and me for money, right?"

"Dad." Xu Wangting was scared and quickly admitted his mistake. "I will go out and borrow money tomorrow. I will definitely pay Xiaofang and the others back tomorrow."

"You have to send the money before nine o'clock tomorrow morning. If you don't, I will go directly to your father-in-law." After warning, Father Xu drove the man away.

Xu Wangting didn't dare to say anything more and left with his wife.

After leaving the unit, Xu Hongmei angrily pushed her husband away and walked ahead with big strides, and Xu Wangting followed her.

"Why are you so angry now? When I asked you to lend me money, I said I would go to your parents to get some, but you disagreed. What's going on now? My dad will be happy. If he really finds your dad, our family will be embarrassed." Xu Wangting also regretted that he was so soft-hearted and listened to his wife.

Women have long hair but little knowledge.

Now that there is such a big handle left, my father is so angry that he didn't even ask about his grandson's work.

Xu Hongmei said, "Who knew Xu Fang would be like this after borrowing the money? Their family is doing business, so what's wrong with the money flowing over for a few days?"

"Then why didn't you say it just now?"

Xu Hongmei: Her father-in-law was so vicious that he even beat her husband. How could she have the courage to do that?

Xu Wangting seemed to see through her thoughts. "It shouldn't have happened this way. No one expected Jianhua to get into trouble. I've been busy with Qiuping's affairs these days, and I haven't been to the hospital. How can Xu Fang not be angry?"

"How dare you say that? I couldn't think of it when I wasn't home, and you didn't go even though you thought of it. It's all your fault."

Xu Wangting also asked his wife to come and coax him, repeatedly admitting her mistakes and talking about the slap on her face. "Tomorrow I will go to work with half of my face swollen. I don't know how many people will laugh at me."

"You deserve it." Xu Hongmei wanted to save face, but she was stubborn and refused to give in.

Xu Wangting didn't expect her to say anything nice now. He just wanted to play the victim. The next morning, early in the morning, the two of them went to Xu's house.

Xu Wangting honestly admitted his mistake in front of his father-in-law and told him what happened. Instead of being angry, Xu's father was very happy.

The son-in-law is on his side in everything, so no father-in-law is unhappy.

"We have some money at home, you can take it first, there's no rush for it at home." Xu's father is the director of the design institute, a high-ranking official, but he is a normal person and doesn't put on airs. "Xu Guang has some money too, ask him to send some over, and you can take it back first after you have the money together."

"Dad, thank you. I'm so old, and I still make you worry about me." Xu Wangting was very respectful in front of his father-in-law.

"We are one family, so we should keep our differences."

While Xu's father was speaking, Xu's mother had already called her son. The Xu family has two children, Xu Hongmei is the older sister and Xu Guang is the younger brother. They both opened a transportation company outside and made a lot of money.

After receiving a call from home, he came with 20,000 yuan soon after.

He has handsome eyebrows and eyes, looks like a college student, and is very friendly. "Sister, brother-in-law, what you two did is wrong. I am the only one in our family who has money. You didn't ask me for money, but went around to get it from others. Now it's such a mess. Have you learned your lesson?"

"Dad, am I that kind of person?" Xu Guang said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, you can use this money. Give it to me whenever you have it. Even if you don't give it to me, I won't take it. Just think of it as sponsoring Qiu Ping. He's going to work in the capital, and I'll have many more times to ask him for help in the future."

This makes people feel comfortable.

After leaving Xu's house with 20,000 yuan, Xu Wangning ignored the people on the road and put his arm around his wife's waist. "It is a blessing that I have accumulated in several lifetimes to marry you."

Xu Hongmei pushed him away with a red face, "Don't mess around, there are so many people watching us."

"I'm hugging my own wife, so what am I afraid of?" Xu Wangting didn't care. He was more confident this time. "Return the money this time, and she won't beg us for anything in the future."

"Don't forget that Ji Ling is in the capital."

"So what if we're in the capital? We won't ask her for anything."

Xu Hongmei disagreed, "In any case, don't block the road too much."

Half of Xu Wangting's face still felt pain. He didn't say anything. He sent his wife to work and went back to his parents' home.

Out of the 20,000 yuan, Xu Fang took 13,000 yuan, gave 5,000 yuan to her parents, and used the remaining 2,000 yuan to pay back her colleagues.

Until Xu Wangting passed away, Xu's father never asked about his grandson's work.

Xu's mother was also angry. She didn't even discuss such a big thing as arranging a job for her grandson with them, and even spent money to use connections. This was a disgrace to the family.

Father Xu has been respected for so many years and was called Mr. Xu, but now his grandson has to spend money and use connections to get in through the back door, which is a slap in his face.

This matter was like a taboo in the Xu family. Xu's mother did not mention it, not even when she went to the hospital to send Ji Ling.

Ji Ling didn't ask Xu Fang how she got the money back, but she took her five thousand yuan anyway.

Zheng Shi and Qian Xiangqian came early in the morning and took Ji Ling to the corridor to talk behind her back. Zheng Shi wanted to see how her injuries were doing.

Ji Ling knew that if she didn't move, this man wouldn't come up and take off her clothes, but she still put her hands in front of her, "The scabs have fallen off, it's okay."

"It must have left a scar." Zheng Shi curled his lips and kicked Qian Xiangqian, "Don't you have something to say?"

Qian Xiangqian took out a tube of ointment from his pocket and said, "Apply more of it on a regular basis. It won't harm pregnant women and it can remove scars."

Ji Ling thanked him and took it. "I'll leave this afternoon. You two should study hard and go to the capital when you have time."

"You are Xia Tiansheng, right? Let's go over to see you." Zheng Shi raised his eyes and glanced behind her. "Did Uncle Ji and Aunt Xu have a fight?"

Ji Ling turned around after hearing this.

I only had time to see the backs of the two people leaving one after the other.

Zheng Shi, “I saw Aunt Xu come out and yell at Uncle Ji.”

"Sister-in-law, let's pack up and go." Zhu Yaowu was also observing the movement.

Since the situation is not right, it is better to go to the station early. Who knows what trouble the Ji family will cause.
