Chapter 1004 Borrowing Money
Li Rou held Tong Xiaoxing in one hand and Tong Xiaoyue in the other. Hearing what Tong Tiehu said, she secretly clenched the little hands of the two children. She smiled and said, "Grandpa, the two of them just came back. Drink some water and go."

"Have you boiled hot water?" Tong Tiehu asked blankly with his hands behind his back.

"I'm going to burn it now."

"Don't mess around, I'm not an outsider, I run there every day, so why not be polite." Tong Tiehu said, and then urged Qiao Maimai and Tong Sanlang to get on the carriage, "You still have a lot of work over there? Don't Delayed here, go back."

"Wait." Li Rou said, she led Tong Xiaoxing and Tong Xiaoyue forward, and said with a smile, "Mai Mai, will you and San Lang come over tomorrow?"

"Come here." Qiao Mai replied two words.

"Then can you lend me some money?" Li Rou's face flashed a little uncomfortable, and she didn't dare to look at Qiao Xiaomai, and said in a low voice, "A few days ago, my mother was ill, and she saw it at the medical center in town. , spent a lot of money, my family is poor, and her medicine money alone has emptied my family, and it will be difficult to survive this year."

"So I thought, can you lend me some money, and my mother will definitely pay it back in the future."

Borrow money?

Qiao Xiaomai saw her hesitant look in his eyes, and said expressionlessly, "The wages your man earns these days, I will send them out in the evening, about twelve taels."

"Ten taels, plus the private money you saved before, is it enough for your natal family to survive this year?"

Pork is only thirteen or fourteen coins a catty, and chicken is cheaper. Ten taels of silver is definitely enough to live a good year.

Li Rou was stunned, she didn't expect Qiao Xiaomai to pull out Tong Dalang's wages, she forced a smile, "But don't I have to save some for Xiaoxing and Xiaoyue..."

Hearing this, Qiao Maimai couldn't help but sneered, "Your mother is sick, and you don't want to take out the money yourself, but you come to me to borrow it. Why should I lend it to you?"

"You..." Li Rou's eyes turned red immediately when she was stung by these words, "Xiaoxing and Xiaoyue are young, and I save a fixed amount of money for the two of them every year so that they can use it when they get married in the future. This part of the money cannot be touched. of."

"But this year's family situation is special, and I haven't given them all the money that should be saved this year."

"I can't do anything, so I thought of asking you to open my mouth."

"Heh - so you are ignoring your own mother for the sake of your loving mother?" Qiao Xiaomai heard the reason, not only did not show any emotion on his face, but instead sneered.

When Li Rou heard this, the red eye circles were immediately clouded with mist, "I was forced to do nothing. One side is my own flesh and blood, and the other side is my own mother. I don't care which one I choose. Nice."

Qiao Xiaomai stared at her plain face, raised her eyebrows, reached into her bosom, and took out two small five-liang ingots from the space.

She waved the two small ingots with her hands, and said, "This is the lucky money for the two children. It should be the marriage money you saved for them this year."

Seeing Li Rou staring at the silver ingot in her hand, she smiled and said, "But keep it with me first, and when these two children are really going to get married, I will give them all these years. "

Li Rou looked at the two silver ingots, originally there was hope in her eyes, but when she heard this, she was immediately stunned.

Not only did he not borrow any money today, but even the two children's New Year's money was seized? !
