Chapter 100 Borrowing money?

"Don't you have a good relationship with Qin Jiang and like this brother very much? Why do you have the heart to hold him back?"

Ever since Qin Xi revealed his trash nature, Li Chunhua also began to let himself go, saying anything that might poke Qin Xi's heart.

"Hey, your brother is eighteen this year. In the countryside, many people have married wives and become fathers. You say it's fine if you don't help him. How can you hold him back?"

"Qin Xi, on this point, I have to criticize you a few words. You are too ignorant and selfish. When I was your age, I managed everything well at home and outside. The work in the house has not been missed, whoever sees it will not say hello!"

"I'm not saying that I want you to be as hardworking and capable as I used to be. After all, the times are different, but you should at least be sensible! Don't burden your brothers!"

In a situation like Qin Jiang's, with no money and no skills, it would be very difficult to marry a wife, unless he exchanged marriage with someone else, but if he could exchange marriage with someone else, how could he be a good family.

Of course, she would at most think about it in her heart and would not say it out loud. Whether Qin Jiang will marry a wife or not is none of her business!No one cares about my old bones, so I don't have the heart to worry about other people, and it's not like I'm full and have nothing to do.

Seeing the face of the old lady standing on the moral high ground and preaching to her, Qin Xi really couldn't hold back, and replied, "None of your business, after my brother's accident, did you care about him? Did you take care of him? "

"Now that I know that I'm dragging them down, life is hard, why, are you willing to spend a penny of your pension for our three brothers and sisters?"

"I don't have any actual contribution. Every day I open my mouth and say that this one is poor and that one is not good. It's very hypocritical. If you really care about us, just give something practical, whether it's money or tickets, it doesn't matter. I don't dislike it. .”

Upon hearing this, Li Chunhua reflexively clutched the right pocket of her clothes. There was twenty cents in her pocket, which Qin Xi couldn't get away with.

During this period of time, her savings did not increase but decreased, which made her pay more attention to money. If Qin Xi wanted money, he didn't even think about it.

The few young ones in the family, one or two are debt collectors, they know to ask her for money, she has no job, and her children are not filial, she is an old lady, where did she get the money!
At this time, she has selectively ignored the money that Qin Shan gave her before. After all, in her heart, what goes into her pocket is her money, and everything from Qin Shan's Liu Qin belongs to her.

But these days, Qin Shan's pocket is cleaner than his face, and there is not even a dime. How can I get the money for her? This is very depressing.

She attributed everything to Liu Qin. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is more tense than before, almost to the point of stabbing. Both of them are old hermaphrodites, and they don't even have a meal. stop.

"Don't even think about it, I'm an old woman, where do I get the money from?"

"If your brothers and sisters are really poor and can't even afford to eat, go to Liu Qin. She has a subsidy for the three of you to go to the countryside, which is more than 100 yuan!"

At that time, her request was to share half of the meeting, but Liu Qin ruthlessly rejected it. Now that she remembered this, she wanted this not-so-good Qin Xi to make trouble for Liu Qin.

If you ask her, Liu Qin is not destined to be rich. Back then, the firewood box was well pasted, and she could earn a few dollars in extra income every month, but she insisted on it because of the few insignificant scars on her hands and feet. , Lost this extra money.

Moreover, she spent a lot of money for those scars, at least dozens of dollars, what a prodigal woman.

However, she swallowed Qin Xi's subsidy for going to the countryside, and her current savings must be more than 300 yuan, which is much more than the savings she has saved for more than ten years.

"Do you think my mother will give me back the money?"

"Now the three of us are in the countryside, and we can't even drink porridge. As soon as we arrived, we borrowed [-] catties of food from the brigade. But after so long, we have already eaten enough. I am coming back I just want to ask you to borrow some money. Don't worry, I understand the rules. It's not difficult to borrow and repay. It doesn't matter if it's five years or ten years. In short, when we have money, we will definitely repay it to you. .”

Qin Xi felt that she had mastered the basics of dealing with her grandma, and what could stimulate her more than borrowing money from a miser.

She never thought about the success of borrowing money from the beginning to the end, can the hair on the iron rooster be plucked?

In fact, it's not impossible, but the key point is that they didn't meet that condition!
"I have no money, I am an old woman, where can I lend you the money."

"The rice is still cooked at home, I'm going to go back and have a look, otherwise it will burn, and your mother will definitely teach me a lesson." After speaking, Li Chunhua turned around and left, not caring whether this road was the way home or not.

Borrowing money is absolutely impossible, even in this life.

What's more, she looked down on the three brothers and sisters from the bottom of her heart. She didn't think that Qin Xi and the others would be able to pay back the money they borrowed from her. She wasn't even sure that she could live that long.

Besides, how hard life is in the country!With a combination like theirs, working in the fields for a year without starving yourself to death is considered good. Don’t think about saving money, it’s not suitable, and it’s also impractical.

Qin Xi looked at Li Chunhua's figure walking faster and faster, smiled and said nothing.

Her mother had to go to work today, and she had lunch in the factory cafeteria, so she wouldn't run back and scold her for burning the meal.

Qin Xi went directly to the black market. There are far fewer people setting up stalls than in the morning, but there are still more than a dozen stalls on both sides of the street. The best location is the stall of the black market manager himself. There are, but only sporadically.

The first thing she saw was cured fish and bacon on a street stall. Something must have happened to this man's family, otherwise, who would be willing to sell the meat smoked during the Chinese New Year on the black market.

The stall owner is a man in his 30s. Looking at his patched clothes and shoes, one can tell that his family conditions may not be very good.

"Uncle, how do you sell this cured fish and bacon?" Qin Xi asked, pointing to the attractive golden color of cured fish and bacon.

She was really moved. Among other things, in this era without refrigerators, this thing is very durable, which is one of its advantages that cannot be ignored.

"Bacon is three yuan and five catties, and cured fish is two yuan and one catty." When someone asked the price, he must have quoted a higher price, but it was not too outrageous.

The pork on the black market is one yuan and five catties, and his smoked bacon can only produce seven taels of bacon per catty of pork.

The fish and the meat are all smoked during the Chinese New Year. The meat for the whole family of seven is here for a whole year. If his mother is not sick and needs to see a doctor and take medicine, he will never sell this meat of.
