Become a Cat and Be Pampered by Everyone

So when she saw the Ruan family coming back today, she was naturally instigated again. In her opinion, the Ruan family was very rich anyway, and they were not short of the ten or one hundred yuan they lent them.

But Xu Jianlin didn't expect that the person opening the door would be Mr. Shu.

Although Mr. Shu had been to Xiahe Village six years ago, Xu Jianlin didn't have a deep impression on him. But looking at the way he was dressed, he knew he was not an ordinary person. He suddenly became timid and subconsciously wanted to step back.

But as soon as he took two steps back, he heard Ruan Lin's voice coming from inside the room: "Grandpa Jiaojiao, who is here?"

Mr. Shu stepped aside, and then Ruan Lin saw Xu Jianlin. Although she came back often, she had never met Xu Jianlin before. Seeing him like this, she immediately frowned. The last time she saw him seemed to be a few years ago. , I feel that he is aging too fast and he looks worse than her!

"Jianlin, what's the matter with you? Come in, come in, it's windy at the door." She put down the small hoe and the basket of bamboo shoots in her hands, walked to the courtyard and shook some well water up to wash her muddy hands. The well water that came up was warm. After washing, she wiped it on her body and returned to the charcoal fire to warm the water on her hands. Seeing that Xu Jianlin hadn't come in yet, she had to get up and walk over again, pulling him in. .

He said, "What are you doing blocking the air outlet? Do you want to sell some dry goods? Where are you putting it?" As he said, his eyes scanned around him, but he didn't see it, and he suddenly became suspicious.

Liu Mei has been ill since the beginning of autumn and can't work on the ground. She has been working all day long since she was sick. Xu Jianlin hasn't gone out to do odd jobs for a long time, and even the crops in the fields have been abandoned. Forget about picking wild vegetables and drying them.

He came here purely to borrow money. Liu Mei said that the Chinese New Year was coming soon, so she asked him to come to the Ruan family to borrow money, preferably two or three hundred, because Xu Cheng was older and both were in junior high school. He's a young man, and he still doesn't have any decent clothes.

Although he really can't open the door, there is nothing he can do. He can't open the pot now. If he can't borrow money this time, his family will starve to death this winter.

But how did you know that the person you met was either Mr. Shu or Ruan Lin? What was Ruan Lin's reputation in the village? How could he dare to borrow money from her? He subconsciously wanted to leave, but he was unwilling to give in. He wanted to wait and see if Ruan Jianguo would come over. Who knew that Ruan Lin would directly pull him in and ask him about his business? I felt like my face was burning, and I didn't dare to look at Ruan Lin's face.

Ruan Lin has lived for most of her life. Xu Jianlin knew something was wrong at the first glance. Her eyes flashed, pretending not to know anything, and asked with a smile: "Are you here to find Jianguo?"

Xu Jianlin nodded immediately: "Yes, aunt... where is he?"

"Oh, he is digging bamboo shoots in the back mountain. Go find him." Ruan Lin pointed to the back mountain.

"Hey, okay, I'll go over there, auntie." Xu Jianlin immediately nodded with a smile and walked towards the back hill, with a smile on his face as if he had gotten a big deal.

Ruan Lin looked at his back, her eyes became darker.

As soon as Xu Jianlin ran to the back hill, he saw Ruan Jianguo as expected, and immediately ran up. Because of his excitement, he didn't even pay attention to restraining his voice: "Brother Ruan, Brother Ruan."

Ruan Jianguo had just dug out a winter bamboo shoot. When he heard the sound and looked over, he saw Xu Jianlin running up to him: "Brother Ruan, the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Can you lend me two... no, three hundred yuan?!"
