Urban drama: Starting from rejecting Fan Shengmei on a blind date
Chapter 216: Having such parents is Fan Shengmei’s sorrow
"Mom, I'm incompetent for not being able to give you and my dad a good life. This is my responsibility, but can you please stop acting on your own? Do you know who they are?
You don't even know who that person is, yet you ask him to borrow money in my name. How do you want others to see me?
To put it nicely, you are a neighbor. To put it bluntly, how can people know who you are?
If neighbors were really that easy to talk to, you wouldn't have come all the way to Shanghai. Aunt Zhang, who lives across from us, has been our neighbor for so many years. When something so serious happened to our family, why didn't you ask her for money? "
When Mrs. Fan heard this, she was speechless. Her daughter actually blamed her.
You think you don't want to borrow money from your neighbor Aunt Zhang, but the longer you get along with her, the more she knows what kind of character our family is, and of course she won't lend you money.
What's more, borrowed money has to be repaid. How can it be the same thing for me to borrow money from someone and for you to borrow money from someone?
Obviously the old lady doesn't want to take on the debt herself, so she can only let her daughter Fan Shengmei take on the debt?
"You girl actually blame me. If you were doing well in Shanghai, would your mother have to beg others for money?
Now that the neighbor next door has agreed to lend you money, you are throwing a tantrum. Your dad and I are old, so we can eat whatever we want, but Lei Lei is still growing.
He drinks milk every day, but here he is eating flatbread and pickles all day long. If you let my grandson starve, I will not forgive you."
Fan Shengmei really didn't want to quarrel with her mother. There was no point in arguing about these things. Who made her a loser?
Fan Shengmei walked over to her mother and asked for money, saying, "Give me some money. Since your precious grandson is so important, I'll go buy him some milk."
Although the old lady was very unhappy, she still took out the money obediently. Looking at her stingy look, you could tell that she was definitely feeling sorry for the money again.
When Fan Shengmei came back from shopping, she was speechless again because her mother pointed the finger at Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying who were off work.
"Auntie knows you are good children. It is fate that you can live with Xiaomei. You have also seen the situation of our family. I am really sorry to cause you trouble.
Alas, Xiaomei's father and I came to Shanghai originally hoping to live a good life, but in the past two days, we have been eating only flatbreads and pickles. We can't even spare 500 yuan, and this is only the monthly living expenses for our family of four.
Life is so hard these days. Our Xiaomei is too shy to ask you for money, so I, an old lady, am the only one who has the nerve to ask you for money.
I wonder if you could lend us some money. Don't worry, Xiaomei will definitely pay you back when I get my salary next month."
Forget it, it’s the same old trick of borrowing money, and it’s also the trick that Guan Juer is most worried about. This old lady really borrowed money from herself.
This immediately put Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying in a dilemma. If they chose to help, the Fan family would be a bottomless pit and it might also cause Zhou Chen's dissatisfaction.
If you choose not to help others while living under the same roof, you may easily offend them and feel embarrassed to say hello when you meet them.
What's more, now we know the character of the Fan family. Their so-called lending of money is just to increase the pressure on Fan Shengmei to repay the debt.
Guan Juer was too embarrassed to refuse, but Qiu Yingying said nonchalantly, "Auntie, we want to help Sister Fan if she's in trouble, but we don't have any money.
Guan Guan and I both just started working, and our monthly salary is only 5,000 yuan. A few days ago, we heard that something happened in Sister Fan's family, so we each lent Sister Fan 10,000 yuan.
Then I paid three months' rent, and now I'm penniless. If I lend you more, you'll still have something to eat, but we'll be left with nothing."
The old lady was immediately embarrassed when she heard this. She had wanted to get some money from Guan Juer and the others, but she didn't expect that not only did they have no money, they were even their family's creditors. How should she continue the conversation?
"I've always said that you're all good girls. You definitely wouldn't refuse to help Xiaomei if she was in trouble. I really want to thank you very much. Neighbors should help each other.
Unlike the man next door, I calmly asked him to borrow money, but he actually said he didn't know our Xiaomei. There's no need to make such an excuse if you don't want to lend money. It's really abominable. "
The old lady's behavior of pulling one and stepping on the other made Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying frown. There was only one man on the entire 22nd floor, and that was Zhou Chen. Does that mean Zhou Chen refused their request to borrow money?
We are happy when you praise us, but we are unhappy when you step on Zhou Chen?
Just when Guan Juer and the others were about to lose their temper, Fan Shengmei walked in. She knew that if she didn't come in, the situation would probably get out of control following her mother's words.
Mom really doesn't know what she's talking about. Why are you making random comments when you don't even know what's going on?
"Mom, you still have time to chat, why don't you go check on Lei Lei? I heard movement in his eyes, is he waking up?"
Upon hearing that her grandson had woken up, the old lady hurried to the room to check. Fan Shengmei immediately apologized to Guan Juer and the others, hoping that they would not take their mother's words to heart.
Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying also didn't want to break up with Fan Shengmei's family in front of her, otherwise Fan Shengmei would be in a difficult position being caught in the middle.
They could only go to Zhou Chen's house under the pretext of having dinner, so as to avoid the embarrassment of staying in the rental house.
Seeing the two of them leave, Fan Shengmei hurried into her room and scolded: "Mom, can you please stop talking nonsense? You can easily offend people like this, do you know?
The hateful man you mentioned is Guan Juer's boyfriend. We borrowed his money, and you still say bad things about his boyfriend. Do you want me to offend all the neighbors before you are happy?
I told you, I'll take care of the money issue. Can you please stop asking everyone for money? Do you want me to become famous in the neighborhood?"
Mrs. Fan was a little surprised to hear this, but she didn't think she had done anything wrong. She said shamelessly, "I don't know about these things. I saw that they were wearing bright and beautiful clothes. I just wanted to borrow some money from them. Will this help relieve your stress?"
Haha, I really don’t know whether it relieves pressure or increases Fan Shengmei’s pressure.
During the meal, when Guan Juer told Zhou Chen about their experiences, he was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Was the old lady from the Fan family going to borrow money from everyone on the 22nd floor?
"It's really sad for Fan Shengmei to have such parents. Maybe the old lady is borrowing money for her beloved son who is on the run from debt. I believe that as soon as she gets the money, she will directly transfer it to her son.
There is a saying that goes, "A son sells his father's land without feeling sorry." Now we have to add, "If you are too willful and have too much debt, it will harm your descendants." Anyway, no matter how much money is borrowed, Fan Shengmei will pay it back.
Haha, they can't borrow money in their hometown, so they come to Shanghai to try to scam people. They want to borrow money from all the friends Fan Shengmei knows. This behavior is really shameless.
Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying were also speechless when they heard this. They really didn't know how to evaluate Fan Shengmei's parents. Fan Shengmei was indeed pitiful to have such parents.
