Chapter 22
He thought that it would be a lot if he could borrow one tael of silver, but he didn't expect that she would give so much at once, and she didn't have much in her purse at all. Taking out these ten taels, it shouldn't be a lot of money, right?

Long Yue jerked her lips, "If you think it's too much, just pay me back some more in the future. Anyway, the money in my hands can't grow, so I might as well lend it to you, and you can remember it."

"I will definitely remember it." Zhao Yunling said solemnly.

Long Yuejiao exhaled, put two silver ingots in his hand, and said quietly, "Although you have money, you can't spend it recklessly, you have to save it, you know? If I don't have money, I can't afford it." I will borrow money from you again."

"I know."

"Then... I'll go first." Leaving the words behind, Long Yuejiao walked away.

Zhao Yunling looked at her from a distance, and suddenly thought of something to catch up with, "Wait, where do you live?"

Looking back at him, after pondering for a few seconds, Long Yuejiao reported the address.

Zhao Yunling fully agreed, and bid farewell to Long Yuejiao.

Leaving the small courtyard, Long Yuejiao sighed slightly, "No amount of money can buy your grandma's life back."

If she guessed right, his grandma had stomach cancer, and it was at an advanced stage. Judging from her current condition, she would not live for a few days.

With the money in his pocket, Zhao Yunling immediately went to the doctor, but when he brought the doctor to see the old man, he was thrown out by the old man with a cold face, "I don't see a doctor!"

Zhao Yunling tried to ignore her, but the old man threatened him that if he insisted on getting her to see a doctor, she would hit the wall.

Zhao Yunling was frightened and didn't dare to force her, so she sent the doctor out helplessly.

Once back in the room, Zhao Yunling asked in puzzlement, "Why don't you let the doctor see you?"

The old man glanced at him and smiled lovingly, "Ling'er, come here."

Zhao Yunling raised her eyebrows and obediently walked over.

"We have already spent a lot of money to see a doctor for me, and we can't spend any more. Moreover, after spending so much money, my illness is still not cured. This doesn't mean that the doctor is useless, but my fate is at stake."

Her words made Zhao Yunling's heart choke, and he said in pain, "You are not allowed to say that, you are not allowed to say this kind of thing, you will be fine, you will be fine!"

The old man chuckled and said in a low voice, "Ling'er, you are a man, you have to learn to face the reality and don't learn to deceive yourself and others."

"You..." Zhao Yunling burst into tears.

The old man sighed, looked at him quietly, said nothing, and said after a while, "Ling'er, how much money do you have?"

"Twelve."

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Yunling saw the old man's scrutinizing eyes, and regret immediately arose in his heart. Before he could say anything to save him, he heard the old man say, "Where did you get the money?"

Zhao Yunling pursed her lips, but said nothing.

The old man patted the bed and said, "Tell me, where did you get the money! Don't think I don't know, our family has already been empty, how can we have so much money!"

"Borrowed... Borrowed!"

The old man snorted coldly, and looked at him sharply, "Borrowed it? Who did you borrow it from? I don't remember any relatives or acquaintances we have here!"

"It's really borrowed." Zhao Yunling's tone was weak.

The old man gritted his teeth, "Are you telling the truth! Tell me, did you steal it?"

Zhao Yunling's eyes dodged a little, and he said, "It's really borrowed."

"You bastard! How dare you steal money, kneel down!" Seeing him like this, the old man thought he had stolen money, and immediately lost his temper.

Zhao Yunling knelt down as he said.

The old man looked at him coldly, "What did I tell you?"

Zhao Yunling lowered his head, not thinking of answering the call.

The old man took a deep breath and said, "I don't ask you to have any great fortune, I just ask you to live in peace and dignity! We can have no money, but we can't have no face. How dare you do this? This kind of shameless thing that invites people to scold you, are you trying to piss me off?"

"Mommy, don't be angry, I... really borrowed the money."

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Yunling said quietly, "I want to find a doctor to treat your illness, but I don't have a penny at hand, so I want to steal it. I happened to meet someone asking for money, and my heart moved, so I went to steal his money." ..."

At this point, the old man's face turned cold.

Zhao Yunling hurriedly said, "But I didn't steal it. He caught up with me and asked for the money back. I was worried about you, so I asked him to borrow money, and he lent me ten taels of silver."

"It has nothing to do with you, why would they borrow such a large sum of money from you?" The old man didn't believe it.

Zhao Yunling pinched his fingers and whispered, "I don't know why he would lend it to me."

The old man snorted coldly, and looked at him appreciatively, as if he wanted to see signs of lying on his face.

Zhao Yunling looked at her with a frank expression.

Didn't see anything from his face, the old man frowned, thought for himself, somehow thought of the stranger he brought back just now, and asked, "How did you know that young man just now? How did you lead him?" Come to our house?"

"He is the one who lent me the money. I told him that my grandma was sick and asked for money for medical treatment. Maybe I was afraid that I was lying, so I asked him to come and see you." Zhao Yunling explained.

No wonder he suddenly called her grandma, it turned out to be because of this.

After muttering in his heart, the old man glared and said, "That kid's clothes are worse than yours, how could he lend you so much money?"

"Uh..." Zhao Yunling didn't think about this question.

The old man frowned, "Could it be that he also stole it?"

Zhao Yunling pursed his lips, as if he didn't want to think so, "It shouldn't be, if he stole the money, how could he lend it to me? How could anyone be so stupid?"

"What you said is not unreasonable." The old man agreed.

Lying on the bed and thinking for a while, the old man asked, "Do you know where he lives?"

"Yes, I asked before leaving."

"Well, how about this, you go and return the money to him tomorrow, and inquire about the way out of his money by the way, if the way out is right, don't worry about it, if the way out is not right, you can persuade him to be a good man in the future, I Guess, perhaps he was suddenly moved to pity him, so he lent you the money."

"Mommy, we have no money, what should we do if we return it to him?" Zhao Yunling asked quietly.

The old man sighed deeply, pondered for a while, and said, "Give him the five taels first, and find a way out for the money." Although she didn't want the money, she couldn't take care of Zhao Yunling now. Is he hungry?
"Okay, tomorrow I will do as you say."

The old man chuckled, noticed that he was still kneeling, and hurriedly said, "Quick, get up, don't get cold legs."

Just as he finished speaking, the old man suddenly coughed heavily.

Zhao Yunling got up in a panic, walked quickly to the bed and said, "Nurse, can I ask Madam to look at it for you?"

The old man shook his head, "No need, no need, Ling'er, don't waste money."
