I just reborn, how come I become a scumbag?

Xu Anruo was quite happy.

He squatted down and stroked Dahuang's head again and again.

He knew why.

To put it more scientifically, he followed his masters into the house and smelled familiar.

And according to the common saying in the countryside, old dogs that have been raised for a long time are a bit spiritual.

However, Xu Anruo remembered another proverb:

Swallows know the poor family, and dogs know the new son-in-law.

At this time, he heard slight footsteps behind him.

He didn't need to look back to know it was Tan Zijin.

"Are you full?" Xu Anruo asked.

"Yeah." Tan Zijin whispered.

Then Xu Anruo didn't know what to say.

But it doesn't matter.

He is inexplicably very patient.

This is a little different from before.

"Does this dog have a name?"

Xu Anruo started to find a topic.

Tan Zijin replied in a low voice:

"Zipei named it Dahuang."

"It's really called Dahuang. How many years have you raised it?"

"Nine years."

"It can be considered an old dog. Zipei didn't exist at that time, and your mother was still fine, right?"

Xu Anruo said, changing the subject carefully.

He was still curious, so he couldn't help it.

But.

There was no response from behind for a long time.

He turned his head and saw Tan Zijin standing there, with his head down and red eyes.

At noon in the sixth month of the lunar calendar, the sun was scorching and the cicadas were chirping. Xu Anruo suddenly felt that his heart was being pulled.

Xu Anruo could only change the subject and asked:

"After finishing this field this afternoon, are there any left? How much did your family plant?"

"No, just this one field."

"Only one? You can't plant anything!"

"It's better to have some than nothing. People need food, chickens, ducks and pigs also need food. We have to plant."

Tan Zijin's voice was still small.

But she would answer and explain Xu Anruo's questions seriously.

Xu Anruo nodded. He could understand this. Planting rice was the most important part of the systematic production of small rural families.

Without this, there would be no rice grains for chickens and no bran for pigs, and there would be no straw for making fire and cooking.

Then Xu Anruo thought of a very serious problem.

He turned his head, looked at Tan Zijin, and asked:

"After harvesting the early rice, will your family plant late rice?"

Tan Zijin nodded.

Xu Anruo knew it!

"No, you will go to Jiangda in September. University is not high school. Who will take care of it and harvest it after planting?" he asked again.

"There is a holiday during the National Day. I will come back to harvest it then." Tan Zijin replied.

She did not think about it, obviously she had thought about it long ago.

But Xu Anruo refused to agree after hearing it, and said:

"National Day? No, it must be like this? Then won't I be unable to escape again?"

"No, no, it has nothing to do with you, I can't let you come again!"

Tan Zijin was stunned for a moment, then he got anxious and said repeatedly.

Xu Anruo smiled.

"My legs are longer than mine, you can't say no?"

"But..."

"If you don't plant, then I don't have to come."

"Then, that won't work."

"So!"

Here.

Xu Anruo took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and asked:

"Is the family really in trouble?"

"Yes."

Tan Zijin nodded.

Xu Anruo felt that there was a chance, so she asked again:

"Are you short of money?"

"I owe a lot of money..."

"Is it because of mom?"

"Mom's medical treatment, and the house we built in the early years."

Tan Zijin's voice became lower and lower.

Xu Anruo actually understood.

The situation was similar to what he thought.

In this place and this year, as long as you are not a lazy ghost, your family can live a decent life.

But if there is a serious illness or disaster, it is like the sky is falling and pressing down.

Xu Anruo did not ask in detail what the disease was.

It is not important.

The fact is that the worst money was spent and the person was gone.

In addition, Xu Anruo can also calculate the time when her mother passed away.

It will not be too long ago, it should be before Zipei was three or four years old and could not remember anything.

So the little girl didn't realize it, and her personality didn't seem to be affected too much.

Xu Anruo breathed a sigh of relief and asked again:

"Where's your father?"

"He's working outside."

"He should be able to earn some money, right?"

"He, he only has one leg..."

Tan Zijin's voice suddenly became tearful.

Xu Anruo closed her eyes tightly, opened them again, and took a deep breath.

Isn't this just like a hemp rope that breaks at the thinnest part?

Xu Anruo didn't know what to say for a moment..

He stood there, staring at Da Huang.

Tan Zijin stood behind him, not saying anything, and not leaving.

At this time.

"Brother, do you want some water?"

Tan Zipei brought out the cup of tea that she had made for Xu Anruo.

Xu Anruo turned around quickly, took it with a smile, and rubbed Tan Zipei's pot-lid hair.

As a result, the little girl looked disgusted, pouted, and said:

"Brother, next time you touch Da Huang's head, don't touch my head again!"

"Ah, what's the matter?"

Xu Anruo didn't care.

She even touched her own dog's head.

As a result, Tan Zipei was so disgusted that she ran into the house with a hum.

"She doesn't know these, right?"

Xu Anruo turned around and looked at Tan Zijin.

Tan Zijin responded:

"Zipei is still young."

"So all the burden is on you?"

"Ah? No, I, I am the elder sister!"

Xu Anruo nodded and said with a smile:

"I didn't say you weren't."

Then he asked again:

"How much do you still owe?"

"No, not much, it should be."

"It should be?"

Xu Anruo frowned.

But he didn't ask in detail, and changed the direction and asked:

"Your family should be able to get some assistance in this situation, right?"

"Yes, there is everything, including minimum living allowance, subsidies for households with two daughters, farming, and poor students in my school... I gave everything I could."

"Then couldn't you delay the money you borrowed at that time? Wait until you graduate and get a job before paying it back? Who did you borrow the money from?"

Speaking of this, Xu Anruo was a little worried, afraid that he would talk too much.

But fortunately, it seemed that as long as he asked, Tan Zijin would respond seriously, unless there were some hardships that were hard to talk about.

"They are all relatives, and it has been many years, and because of this, the relationship between relatives is not very good." She said.

"So your family has been like this all these years, living a hard life, just to pay off the debt?"

"Yes."

"It's not that the relationship between relatives is not good, right?"

"No, no, when I borrowed the money, the relatives were also in a difficult situation, but they still lent it, so it is right to pay it back early."

"That's right."

Xu Anruo nodded.

In fact, the situation here is very complicated and realistic.

You say that the relatives are not good, but they paid out everything they could back then.

You say well, this family is so hard, and it is estimated that they will still come to ask for some debts every year, making the relationship very stiff.
