Sun Hui was really at his wit's end. Among all the people he knew, Zheng Yingying was the richest, and he had almost spent all his money.
He never knew that it would cost so much money for a child to be sick.
He had only lived there for less than ten days and had spent thirty dollars, and he had almost spent all the money he had.
He had not been working for long and had sent all his previous earnings back home. After he met Zheng Yingying, he also spent some money pursuing her. He was not rich to begin with and was already stretched to the limit.
He thought about borrowing money from his colleagues, but the families of the colleagues he was familiar with were not well-off. They were willing to lend him three or five dollars, but if he borrowed more, they would not be willing to lend him money.
Only Zheng Yingying, when he asked to borrow money, Zheng Yingying directly asked to borrow fifty yuan. He hesitated for a while, and Zheng Yingying directly took out a hundred yuan.
He became more determined to marry Zheng Yingying.
"Yingying, I lent my money to a friend, so it's not convenient for me to ask for it back for now. I'll pay you back when I get the money." Sun Hui looked guilty. "My brother and sister-in-law didn't expect my nephew's illness to be so serious, and they didn't bring much money when they went out this time."
As Sun Hui spoke, he held Zheng Yingying's hand.
Zheng Yingying's face turned red, and she said embarrassedly: "It's okay, the money is useless to me anyway. If it's not enough, tell me again and I'll go back to borrow from my mother."
Sun Hui waved his hands quickly: "No, no, don't tell Auntie about this, I'm afraid she will misunderstand."
Zheng Yingying handed a stack of money to Sun Hui. Sun Hui looked for paper and pen to write a promissory note to Qi Mengmeng, but he couldn't find the pen for a long time. Zheng Yingying quickly handed him the pen and took out some paper from her bag.
"I brought a pen and paper."
Sun Hui was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zheng Yingying to bring paper and pen with her, but he had already said he would write an IOU, so it would be awkward not to write it now.
After writing the IOU, Sun Hui held it in his hand, somewhat reluctant to hand it over. Zheng Yingying asked him, "Is one hundred yuan not enough?"
"Enough, almost enough." Sun Hui handed over the IOU, said a bunch of nice things, and even wanted to take Zheng Yingying to a state-owned restaurant for dinner.
Zheng Yingying felt sorry for her nephew who was still in the hospital, so the two of them each had a bowl of clear soup noodles and didn't even order any vegetables.
After Sun Hui sent Zheng Yingying to the bus, he turned around and went back to the state-owned restaurant, ordered a box of braised pork and a box of meat dumplings, and took them back to the hospital.
When Zheng Meili saw Zheng Yingying coming back, she couldn't wait even a moment and told her about Sun Hui and his sister-in-law.
Zheng Yingying looked at Zheng Meili in disbelief: "Mom, Sun Hui has already told me about his nephew's illness. His sister-in-law grew up with him, just like his biological sister. Isn't it normal for them to have a good relationship?"
Zheng Meili was so angry that her face turned red: "What are you talking about? No matter how good the relationship is, you have to pay attention to the impact. There is definitely something going on between Sun Hui and his sister-in-law. I heard that he took the money for his nephew's illness. Just say that this burden will definitely be particularly heavy in the future."
Zheng Yingying didn't believe it at all. She thought that Sun Hui was not married now, and when they got married and had their own children, he would definitely not be so nice to his sister-in-law.
No matter how Zheng Meili talked to Zheng Yingying, Zheng Yingying thought it was not a problem, and even accidentally told her about lending money to Sun Hui.
"You, why didn't you discuss this matter of borrowing money with me?" Zheng Meili really didn't expect Zheng Yingying to be so stupid. How could she lend out a hundred yuan so easily? This was her three or four months' salary.
"Mom, I really think Sun Hui is a good person. His parents are gone, and his brother and sister-in-law are also in their hometown. From now on, it will be just the two of us living together. How great is that." Zheng Yingying has lived with Zheng Meili and Qi Zhijun since she was a child. She thinks that this kind of life without parents-in-law is very good, so when her classmates introduced Sun Hui to her, she thought he was very suitable.
If it weren't for the incident between Sun Hui and his sister-in-law, Zheng Meili would have thought that this boy from the countryside was not bad. But after seeing with her own eyes how Sun Hui and Li Mei got along, she knew that if Zheng Yingying married Sun Hui, her life in the future would definitely not be easy.
Zheng Meili explained to Zheng Yingying in detail what might have happened, but Zheng Yingying wouldn't listen. She thought Sun Hui was a very good person and was not at all like what Zheng Meili said.
Zheng Meili was so angry at Zheng Yingying that she burst into tears. Zheng Yingying quickly comforted her: "Mom, don't worry, Sun Hui treats me very well, don't worry."
Why should she be so relieved? Zheng Meili was so angry that she didn't want to pay any attention to Zheng Yingying.
When Qi Zhijun came home from get off work in the evening and saw Zheng Meili wiping her tears, he knew that she had not convinced Zheng Yingying. However, Zheng Yingying was already a grown-up girl, and he was her uncle, so he didn't intend to say anything to her face.
"What are we having for dinner tonight?" He pretended not to notice their expressions.
Zheng Meili then realized that it was already very late and Qi Zhijun had already gone off work. She was so angry with Zheng Yingying today that she was confused.
"I made dumplings for lunch. I'm going to make some egg soup." Zheng Meili hurried to the kitchen.
After dinner, Zheng Yingying was afraid of being scolded, so she immediately retreated to her room, which made Zheng Meili very angry.
Qi Zhijun didn't say anything until Zheng Meili returned to the house, then he asked, "Does Yingying disagree with breaking up with Sun Hui?"
Zheng Meili's tears fell: "Why is she so disobedient? She followed that Sun Hui, and she will have a hard life in the future."
Qi Zhijun understood clearly: "We are just her aunt and uncle. If she doesn't listen, there is really nothing we can do."
"No," Zheng Meili wiped away her tears, "I can't watch Yingying suffer. You don't know, she has already lent Sun Hui the 100 yuan she saved. After they get married, Sun Hui will definitely take all our things to his house."
"That won't happen," Qi Zhijun said calmly, "We are just aunt and uncle."
Zheng Meili paused. She treated Zheng Yingying as her own daughter.
"Zhijun, Sun Hui is indeed not a good match. Yingying will not be happy if she marries him. You should think of a solution."
Zheng Meili begged softly. She felt that Qi Zhijun would definitely have a way to make Zheng Yingying break up with Sun Hui.
"Meili, I can find a way to let Yingying know Sun Hui's true identity, but we are just her aunt and uncle. Are you sure Yingying will listen to us?"
"If Yingying knew Sun Hui's true identity, she would definitely break up with him. At that time, you can find a good partner for Yingying in the army." Zheng Meili believes in the child she raised.
Qi Zhijun shook his head. He had said before that he would find a partner for Zheng Yingying in the army, but Zheng Yingying did not agree and instead found Sun Hui.
From this we can see that Zheng Yingying does not want to find a partner in the army.
"As for the matter of finding a partner, let's wait until Yingying breaks up with Sun Hui." Qi Zhijun didn't want to interfere too much in Zheng Yingying's marriage, so as not to create a resentful couple.
