Ordinary people's rice bowl

Chapter 714
On the day when Mu Zhen accompanied his mother to the hospital for an examination, the old Mu at school also put his mind on Mu Zhen's marriage. The situation at home also made him anxious. No matter how you say it, you have to make the wedding decent, but if you want to make it decent, money is hard goods, without money, where can you be decent?

It was the first time for Lao Mu to taste what it was like to be in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han. Since the moment Mu Zhen told him that he was going to get married, Lao Mu had been thinking about how to solve the money problem. Borrowing from colleagues was something he had never done before. Even when building a house back then, he was too poor to afford soybean oil, and he never opened his mouth to his colleagues. Now the only person he can think of is still Wang Tiancheng from the village.

Lao Mu was sitting in front of the window, surrounded by smoke from time to time, and the lingering smoke in the small space could not dissipate for a long time, as if he was in a fairyland, but this still didn't stop Lao Mu from smoking fiercely there, the smell of cigarettes became stronger and stronger. Getting bigger and bigger stimulated Lao Mu's numb nerves.

For so many years, under the leadership of Wang Tiancheng, the people of Xiaowangzhuang Village have lived a good life. Compared with the villagers of other villages, Xiaowangzhuang Village has reached a well-off level, but the well-off level of the old Mu's family can't stand up to the pressure of the pillars. A failed business, all the money invested in his business back then was in vain with his failed business, he, the only brother-in-law, dared not say "no" no matter how difficult it was.

Thinking of this, Lao Mu hesitated about borrowing money from Tiancheng. No matter how difficult it was in the past two years, he never mentioned the matter of the pillar with Wang Tiancheng. If he opened his mouth to borrow money from him now, wouldn't it mean that Expose Pillar's business failure?This didn't seem to be a big problem for Lao Mu, but for the old Taishan who wanted to save face and suffer, it was undoubtedly another disaster.

"No, I can't open my mouth to this old friend again!" Old Mu said to himself.

Maybe it was the smoke in the room that caught Lao Mu's attention. He stretched out his hand to open the door and walked out. The cold wind outside immediately made his mind clear. Working at his desk in the office, the two horses squatting on the fork of the bare poplar tree in the yard yelled twice and flew away. Lao Mu followed the yelling, and at some point, the poplar branch was erected. a bird's nest.

"No wonder I hear this broombird's cry every day!" Lao Mu scolded.

According to what the old man said, when this horse scorpion yells, there must be some bad omens for those who hear it. Thinking of what the old people said, Lao Mu felt a little stuck in his heart, and couldn't help asking: "What will happen?"

Mu Zhen is going to get married, the big day is coming soon, Mu Bao is doing very well at school, the letter I just received also mentioned that everything is fine at school, only Mu Yan and Xiu Hua in the house, they will not have any problems something?
Lao Mu was a little angry, and felt that it was necessary to call home to ask, and then he felt relieved!

Lao Mu walked to Principal Li's office where the telephone was installed. The principal saw Lao Mu coming in and handed him a cigarette enthusiastically. !"

"Why are you worried?" Principal Li asked with concern.

"No, just borrow the phone!" Old Mu replied.

"Let's call, I'll give way!" Principal Li stood up, vacated the chair, and signaled Lao Mu to sit down and make a phone call.

Old Mu was polite, and dialed the phone number at home. The blind tone from the phone made Lao Mu even more uneasy.

"There is no one at home to pick me up. I want to take a leave of absence to go back. The eldest child is getting married. I will help with the preparations. Tomorrow is Friday. There is no major event. I will come back on Sunday afternoon, okay?" Said politely.

"This is a happy event, you go to work, congratulations on becoming a husband!" Principal Li laughed.

"Once this father-in-law takes over, we will grow old quickly!" Lao Mu laughed along with him.

After Lao Mu finished speaking, he walked out of the principal's office, went back to his room to pack up his things briefly, rode his bicycle out of the school gate, and started on his way home.
