Chapter 143 Greedy Ghost
To be honest, she had never seen anyone borrow money in this way.
Xiaoxue was a very sweet child. She stopped sobbing after staying in Guo Fengjuan's arms for a while.
Guo Fengjuan raised her eyebrows, thinking that this person would not mention it since she was here.
It seems that Second Sister Lu is more shameless than everyone knows.
Liu Qingqing suddenly realized that this seemed to be the purpose of his inexplicable visit.
Liu Qingqing shook her head: "Mrs. Lu has found the wrong person..."
Second Sister Lu interrupted her refusal and said, "If ten dollars is not enough, five dollars will do. Lend it to me for emergency."
Lu Erjie glanced at Guo Fengjuan. If she didn't ask for money now, she would not be able to borrow it next time.
Guo Fengjuan must be talking about her behind her back.
Not wanting to dwell on this matter any further, Liu Qingqing uttered a cry, "Sister Lu, your family is struggling, right? The army allowance is more than enough for our family to get by. Is there something wrong? We can't keep it to ourselves if we encounter any difficulties. We should contact the organization if we have any problems. Jinglin, go to the Third Regiment and ask if we can help his family get their salary in advance. I think the organization will see that their comrades are having a hard time and will make some arrangements."
Song Jinglin responded in cooperation and stood beside her with a serious face to protect his wife.
Second Sister Lu didn't expect that the young couple would refuse directly. Generally, these newcomers are thin-skinned, and even if they are unwilling in their hearts, they will not refuse so bluntly.
This time, I ran into a tough guy who not only refused to lend me money, but also asked me to find a leader.
Second Sister Lu snorted, pulled the child out suddenly.
Zhaodi staggered when she was pulled, and Lu Erjie walked straight out without even looking back, leaving the child's feet dragging on the ground.
The child Zhaodi didn't cry out. She struggled with her little legs to find the ground, and then she stumbled and caught up with her mother.
Liu Qingqing and her husband were stunned by the gust of wind, but Guo Fengjuan was not surprised.
"That's just the kind of person she is." Guo Fengjuan saw Xiaoxue blinking her eyes and watching the fun, and she had stopped sobbing.
She put the child on the ground and sat next to Liu Qingqing.
Liu Qingqing grabbed a handful of wine and handed it to Xiaoxue. The little girl smiled sweetly and took it aside and knocked slowly.
This child is also a quiet person, very obedient. Wherever she is asked to play, she will just squat there and play.
Liu Qingqing felt that the child might have started kindergarten too early and his personality had been shaped.
Guo Fengjuan pretended to stop her, but Liu Qingqing pulled her back, so she smiled and sat down.
"I haven't seen her for a while and I almost forgot about her. Second Sister Lu likes to borrow money from new people. She is shy and will borrow more than that. The amount of money she asks for is not much, just one or two yuan. No one can make a fuss over this money. At most, they will just ignore it." Guo Fengjuan curled her lips when she mentioned Second Sister Lu.
She would specifically borrow money from those who had just gotten married or joined the army. It was a one-time transaction. The other party had just arrived at the compound and was still shy. If she couldn't afford ten yuan, she would give five yuan, or if she couldn't afford five yuan, she would give one yuan, and she would definitely be able to borrow it.
Liu Qingqing was amazed at the number of talented people in the military compound. She hadn't even met a few people yet, but she had already met two of them.
"Sister Guo, tell me more. I'll be prepared."
Guo Fengjuan waved her hand: "Don't worry, she'll just borrow some money and take advantage of you. If you don't agree, she won't go a second time."
As they chatted, she became interested and started gossiping about what these people were saying about Lu Erjie's family.
"She has three daughters. The other two are already in school. She originally didn't want to send them, but now they're eight or nine. Her husband was persuaded by the higher authorities and finally the two older ones were sent. As for the younger one, she stays at home with her every day, reluctant to spend the extra 1.5 yuan. She once took the child to work at the textile factory for a few days, but her work was so bad, and Zhaodi was always causing trouble, so they fired her."
"Zhao Di is such a naughty kid. I beat her other two older ones like they were dumb, but this little one never learns a lesson even after being beaten for ten days. Second Sister Lu is reluctant to give her daughter money and is always swindling people. I heard that the family is struggling because they send money to their brother-in-law's family. Her husband, seeing that she hasn't given birth to a son, is counting on his nephew to provide for her in her old age."
Although she knew that people at that time valued their sons, Liu Qingqing still didn't understand what it meant to support her nephew's entire family? She had to tighten her belt just for that unreliable hope?
Come on.
Don't raise a family of greedy people.
