Chapter 109: Jia Dongxu, the turtle man, asked Qin Huairu to borrow money
After listening to Qin Huairu's words, Jia Dongxu's anger became stronger. He put down his bowl and chopsticks and said coldly: "How about this, after dinner, you go find Sha Zhu and tell him about our family's difficulties. Remember to borrow some money from him, otherwise we will really have trouble living like this!"
Qin Huairu was embarrassed when she heard this. She hesitated and said, "This... This is not a good idea. I just borrowed money from He Yuzhu a few days ago. It has only been a short time. If I go again now, what will happen if it gets out?"
"What's wrong with that!" Jia Dongxu got angry when he heard what his wife said.
He snorted coldly and said impatiently: "Shazhu has benefited a lot from the master recently. What's the big deal about you borrowing some money from him? Besides, hasn't that guy always been interested in you? If you give him some sweet things, how can he not lend it to you?"
Jia Dongxu's words left Qin Huairu speechless.
Only Jia Dongxu would think of letting his wife hook up with other men to borrow money!
She wanted to retort, but before she could open her mouth, she was interrupted impatiently by Jia Dongxu.
"Alright, alright, stop giving me those shameful excuses!" Jia Dongxu waved his hands unhappily, "Can you bear to see our family eat coarse food, especially Banggeng, who can only eat steamed bread every day? He is in the period of growth, don't you feel bad for him?"
Hearing this, Qin Huairu couldn't help but glance at her son who was sitting next to her. She saw Banggeng staring at the steamed bread in the bowl with red eyes and a reluctant look on his face.
Seeing this scene, Qin Huairu felt a pang of pain in her heart and swallowed the words back.
Seeing this, Jia Dongxu took advantage of the situation and said, "Don't worry, we are just borrowing money, we are not not paying it back! When life gets better in the future, we will pay it back to Sha Zhu. If he is really that stingy, we will ignore him!"
Faced with her husband's repeated questioning, Qin Huairu finally lost her temper. She sighed helplessly and had to respond in a sullen manner.
……
The He family, the He brother and sister are having dinner.
He Yuzhu looked at his sister He Yushui with a worried look on his face, and asked cautiously: "Sister, Yu Li... is she really not going to consider me?"
Hearing this, He Yushui felt a headache and shook his head helplessly.
He said earnestly: "I don't know what Sister Yu Li is thinking. I have explained everything to her, but she still insists that you two are not suitable and asks you to find someone else."
When He Yuzhu heard this, his face suddenly turned extremely gloomy. He sighed heavily, looking frustrated.
Seeing her brother so disappointed, He Yushui hurriedly comforted him: "Brother, don't be too discouraged. Even if Sister Yu Li doesn't want to, I will definitely help you find a good family. I have good relationships with people in school, and I promise to find you someone better than Sister Yu Li!"
After saying that, He Yushui suddenly thought of something and quickly reminded He Yuzhu: "By the way, brother, let me tell you one more thing. You must not help others for no reason like you did before. Especially those married women, you must stay away from them to avoid causing any trouble again!"
When He Yuzhu heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
I immediately understood that He Yushui was talking about Qin Huairu.
His face turned slightly red, and he said in a coy manner: "Sister, what you said is wrong. I was just helping my neighbors, and I didn't have any other ideas..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
He Yuzhu hurriedly got up to open the door, but he didn't expect it to be Qin Huairu. Seeing this familiar figure, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then smiled and asked: "Sister Qin, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Zhu Zi, I'm so sorry." Qin Huairu walked in with a sad face and said in embarrassment, "Our family has encountered some difficulties recently. We are about to run out of food. We have no money and no food coupons. We really can't afford to eat. So...so I want to trouble you. I wonder if you can lend us some money to make ends meet?"
When Qin Huairu said this, her face showed a pitiful look like a little bird. Her pitiful eyes made He Yuzhu's heart flutter, and he had no time to think about anything else.
He Yuzhu listened and nodded without saying anything: "No problem, Sister Qin, just tell me how much you want to borrow. As long as I have the money, I will definitely help you!"
Qin Huairu heard this, a cunning look flashed in her eyes, and then she pretended to be embarrassed and said: "How about this... fifty yuan? I'm really sorry to ask for so much at once. I will definitely pay you double next time!"
However, just when He Yuzhu was about to agree, a "swish" sound suddenly came from the room.
It turned out that when He Yushui heard that Qin Huairu wanted to borrow fifty yuan, he was already furious. You know, in this era of material scarcity, fifty yuan is not a small amount!
Take food for example. In a state-owned grain store, a pound of the best white flour costs only 80 cents. Even if you go to the pigeon market to buy it, it costs at most 1.30 yuan per pound.
As for meat, pork is only 60 cents per pound in the state-owned market, and no matter how expensive it is in the black market, it will never exceed one yuan per pound.
But Qin Huairu asked to borrow fifty yuan right away. This was clearly bullying He Yuzhu for being honest!
You know, with He Yuzhu's monthly salary of 37 yuan, 50 yuan is almost two months' income!
He Yushui couldn't hold it in any longer when she thought of this. She stood up in a flash, walked to Qin Huairu angrily, and said coldly: "Sister-in-law of the Jia family, my brother is kind-hearted, but that doesn't mean you can take advantage of him unscrupulously! It would be fine if he borrowed three or five yuan, but you asked for fifty yuan at the first sight! If this gets out, how will others see our He family?"
Faced with He Yushui's rage, Qin Huairu was speechless for a moment and her face turned red with embarrassment.
She hesitated for a long time before she said awkwardly: "This... Sister Yushui, you know that our family is really in trouble recently. Dongxu was punished, and he can't make much money working in the logistics department. There are four mouths to feed at home. I really have no other choice, so I came to you for help."
Having said that, a trace of resentment and resentment flashed in Qin Huairu's eyes. She knew in her heart that she might not be able to get what she wanted by coming here to borrow money, but if she returned empty-handed, she would be scolded by Jia Dongxu. Caught in a dilemma, she could only endure the humiliation and pretend to be pitiful.
Unexpectedly, He Yushui did not appreciate it. She snorted coldly and said bluntly: "Who doesn't have difficulties? Although our He family is better off than yours, we are not a wealthy family. You can lend me fifty yuan just by asking me to. Do you think my brother is printing money?"
"Sister, why do you have to be so heartless?" He Yuzhu saw this and hurriedly said, "We are all neighbors, and it is only natural to help each other. Sister Qin has already asked for it, so it's okay to lend her some money."
He Yushui got anxious when she heard this. She grabbed He Yuzhu's sleeve and said in a crying voice: "Brother, if you want to borrow money, just lend them three or five yuan. It's an emergency for them. We can't even afford fifty yuan! Think about it, you've spent a lot on your medicine these few days. If you really lend this money out, where will you get money in the future?"
After hearing this, He Yuzhu became a little hesitant.
