The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 808: Reinforcements from Mom’s Family

"Meixi, with the money from Fifth Brother, we are now 500 yuan short." After withdrawing the money from the post office, Cheng Haiwen looked at his account book. When he was still short of more than 1000 yuan, he felt that he would never be able to borrow it. With so much money, I didn't expect that I had collected more than half of it in just one week. If Bai Meixi's natal family is willing to borrow some money, they will be able to collect enough money to build a house in just a short time.

"My mother's family will definitely lend me money. Although my mother is stingy, she has a lot of private money." Bai Meixi smiled faintly. She still understood He Shaoying. As long as there was something beneficial, she would flock to it, not to mention her. Last time I paid back the money on time and paid a lot of interest, which accumulated a lot of credit with He Shaoying.

He Shaoying had known about Bai Meixi's house building for a long time. Bai Wenjun had come back to mobilize her before, asking her to raise some money for Bai Meixi no matter what, but He Shaoying scolded her every time. The reasons she gave were justifiable. , that is, Bai Meixi has spare money to support Jiu Sheng's child, and naturally has money to build a house, so why use her parents' money to save face.

But when she heard that Bai Meixi lent money to others with [-] cents of interest, she felt even more uncomfortable than a cat's paw. There were indeed many people in rural areas who lent money to others with [-] cents of interest, but perhaps not many people paid back the money on time.

He Shaoying lent 20 yuan before, but she waited two years to get it, and only paid two yuan in interest. She still looked aloof. He Shaoying is still holding her breath. From then on, she never dared to borrow again. The money was given to people in the same village, but his own daughter was different. Even if Bai Meixi didn't repay others, she would never lose her principal and interest.

He Shaoying didn't want to take the initiative to go to Bai Meixi to prevent her from lowering the interest rate for her. She wanted to wait until Bai Meixi couldn't bear it anymore and come to beg her. Then she could increase the interest rate to two and a half cents, but now it's already more than half of the time. During the month, foundations were being laid for Bai Meixi's house, but she didn't see Bai Meixi's figure. She couldn't help but feel a little panicked, for fear of missing this great opportunity.

"Mom, what are you doing standing at the door all day? Go and cook quickly. I have a rare day off today and I am almost exhausted." Bai Huli leaned against the door frame with a very tired look on her face. She had a fight with her partner that day, and she had to push the heavy stones by herself. Every time she came back, she felt like she was dead. She wished she would get seriously ill and not have to go to work for the next half month.

"Go to your sister-in-law. What is she doing in the house? She hasn't even cooked a meal all day long." He Shaoying was worried, stepping on her feet and looking outside. Now she had no intention of eating at all, fearing that Bai Meixi would really do it. Not coming back.

"Sister-in-law, just like you, stood like a stone watcher and kept looking out the window. What on earth are you looking at? Bai Wenjun won't be back until the weekend. Mom, you can't be so partial. Your son's life is life, and your daughter's. You will have to starve to death.”

Bai Huli couldn't stand it any longer. She was so tired and hungry that she could hardly open her eyes. She leaned on the bed and fell asleep.

But her words made He Shaoying suspicious. Her daughter-in-law had always been on guard against her, and she knew it, so she tried her best to take the boss's money out of his pocket to avoid giving her daughter-in-law an advantage. Now, She was so looking forward to Bai Meixi's return. Could it be that she also hid some private money and wanted to lend it to her?
"Boss, what are you doing here without cooking at this late hour!" He Shaoying kicked open the door of the eldest daughter-in-law's room and felt even more suspicious when she saw her sneakily changing her clothes.

"Mom, please close the door quickly. What if someone sees it?" The eldest daughter-in-law hurriedly buttoned up her buttons. She was wearing a quilted jacket, which was her wedding dowry. Because the color was too bright, she rarely wore it. On the body, now that the waist is too small, there is definitely something wrong with wearing it on the body.

"Why are you wearing this? Why are you still wearing such gorgeous clothes after being married for so many years? Take it off and let Hu Li wear it." He Shaoying felt that the eldest daughter-in-law's private money must be hidden in her jacket, so she stretched out her hand to ask for it. Take off that jacket.

The sister-in-law quickly turned to the side to avoid it. She pursed her lips and gestured to the blue jacket that was taken off on the bed. It was covered with stains and there was a large water stain on it. "Mom, I accidentally spilled the water just now. I can't see anyone if I'm wet. Otherwise, I wouldn't want to wear this." The sister-in-law went to the kitchen wearing a red jacket. She has gained weight in the past few years. Well, wearing these clothes feels like putting yourself in a bag, ready to explode at any moment.

He Shaoying's eyes followed her, closely watching her sister-in-law's every move, for fear that she would transfer her private money.

The food in the Bai family is very simple. If Bai Wenjun doesn't come back, they will only have vegetarian dishes. The sister-in-law quickly made bran vegetable porridge and bran vegetable steamed buns, and walked into the house with a small plate of pickles.

"Mom, why are you eating these again? Bai Wenjun eats meat even when he's not working. I work outside every day but can only eat bran. You're patriarchal."

Bai Huli had been eating bran bran for several days, and now she felt like vomiting when she saw this thing. She remembered that there should be eggs in the chicken coop, and immediately asked her sister-in-law to fry two extra vegetables.

"Little sister, are you kidding? Our eggs can only be eaten by men. The last time I saw them was during the Chinese New Year, and I don't remember when I ate them."

The sister-in-law's tone was sour. She was originally dissatisfied with He Shaoying's excessively frugal lifestyle. Now that she saw that she treated her children harshly, she felt even worse.She felt that she had to make some money quickly and move out from home, otherwise her children would be harmed by He Shaoying sooner or later.

"Your sister-in-law is right. Nutritional products like eggs and pork are of no use to women even if they are eaten. Unlike men who eat them to gain strength, they can grow crops and find work in the city. The eggs are for you. Brothers, keep it, you can eat two more pickles, they taste the same as eggs."

The pickles at He Shaoying's house were all divided into portions. The sister-in-law brought a total of fifteen pickles, five pickles for each person, so in her opinion, these two pickles were a great gift. Bai Huli should accept them with gratitude and no longer It's okay to be noisy.

"I'd better go lie down for a while, Mom. I ate eggs at my eldest sister's place. Don't try to lie to me. They taste much better than pickles." Bai Huli told the truth. Bai Meixi always treated these younger brothers and sisters. Generous, even if she doesn't get along with Bai Huli, she often asks Bai Wenjun to bring her some food and feeds her until she has something to eat.

She felt that the food in front of her was hard to swallow and kept losing her temper. He Shaoying had something on her mind and could not take care of her at all. He Shaoying's attention was all on her eldest daughter-in-law's clothes. After several minutes, she decided to bear the pain and take out her pressed clothes. The cotton-padded jacket at the bottom of the box is forcibly exchanged with the sister-in-law, and she must deceive her into getting this precious cotton-padded jacket.
