Chapter 233 Lending You Money Is A Kindness, Not Borrowing It Is My Duty
After Liu Xing took Little Peanut into the preserved egg breakfast shop, he didn't go to bed immediately, but arranged a place for Sikong Lei's family to live, and then went to the Bamboo Bamboo Products Workshop to have a look.

Seeing that everyone was sleeping and they hadn't woken up yet, they didn't bother, but returned to the breakfast shop.

At this moment, he found his mother wiping tears and counting money in the room.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Liu Xing hurried in.

"No...it's okay! Sand got into my eyes!" Mother Zhu Meiling quickly wiped away her tears and put away the money.

"No! You must have something on your mind!" Liu Xing turned around and left: "If you don't tell me, I'll ask Dad."

"Come back!" Zhu Meiling yelled, and after holding Liu Xing, she closed the door.

"Whoever bullied you, tell me, son, beat him!" Seeing her mother's tears coming out again, Liu Xing quickly wiped them with her hand.

"No one bullied me, but your army uncle, he is not human!" Zhu Meiling sighed softly and explained the reason: "When our family hadn't opened a workshop for bamboo products and a breakfast shop in the market, , didn’t he borrow hundreds of dollars from us for building the house!”

"Yeah!" Liu Xing nodded, he knew about it.

At that time, his parents were also in urgent need of money, but in order to build Uncle Jun's red brick house smoothly, they insisted on lending out the few hundred yuan they saved.

"But who knew that on the third day after you left, your military uncle came to borrow money again. I didn't say no! But do you know? The reason why he borrowed money this time was because he lost a card game at home. The money needs to be repaid. As a sister, I must say a few words to him, but your uncle Jun said that he would cut off contact with me in a fit of rage, and he didn't recognize me as a sister. I don’t want to pay it back!” Zhu Meiling wiped her tears, the more she talked, the more sad she felt.

Liu Xing didn't like it, so he replied softly: "Mom, it's not your fault. Why are you crying? You should be happy to see Uncle Jun clearly for a few hundred dollars, understand?"

Uncle Jun, whose real name is Zhu Xiaojun, is the youngest in his mother's family, also known as Man Zai in the rural saying. He has two older brothers and three older sisters.

And the mother is the second sister among the three sisters.

When he was in his natal family, Uncle Jun was spoiled by his grandmother, and he relied on him for everything. Naturally, he didn't have the mother's share in what to eat and wear.

Of course, this is normal in the countryside. After all, patriarchal thinking has been deeply ingrained, and my mother didn’t hate Uncle Jun because of it. After getting married, she often went to help Uncle Jun, and sometimes she didn’t even eat.

This is already very remarkable in the countryside, but because of this, Uncle Jun looked down on his mother and his father, who didn't have any skills. Later, he had a conflict because of a trivial matter, and he had no contact with him for a year or two.

In the end, I don't know why they reconciled. On the day Uncle Jun got married, he went to pay a gift of 500 yuan.

But it was this gift that not only offended the eldest uncle and second uncle, but also offended my aunt and aunt, because in the countryside, 500 yuan for a wedding ceremony in the s was a huge sum of money.

With the gift of 500 yuan, Uncle Jun naturally lived a nourishing life, but his mother lived in suffering, and had to suffer all the mocking words from his uncles.

But even so, Uncle Jun is still not satisfied, and now he has to cut off contact with his mother because of borrowing money. If it were him, Liu Xing would be heartbroken!
Now Liu Xing really wants to ask in front of Uncle Jun, does your conscience hurt?Do you know the meaning of the saying that lending you money is a kindness, and not lending you money is a duty?
Naturally, Zhu Meiling didn't know what Liu Xing was thinking. She choked up and said, "Why am I happy? Do you know that your father has been in conflict with me these days because of borrowing money! I'm not because of your disappointment. Uncle Jun is sad, but sad because I am not a human being inside and out.”

"My dad is real too!" Liu Xing frowned upon hearing this, "He is now a big-money boss, and he is mad at you for a few hundred dollars."

"I love to hear that!" Zhu Meiling couldn't help laughing. Seeing that the sky was bright and a lot of villagers eating rice noodles came outside, she immediately said, "I won't tell you son, I have to go collect money , remember to take your younger sister to Qingshi Elementary School to report when you have time!"

"Okay!" Liu Xing nodded, suddenly he felt something was wrong, and quickly reached out to stop his mother: "Mom? Why did you collect the money, wasn't Aunt Hua before?"

"Don't mention it, he received 200 yuan of fake money the day before yesterday, and was scolded by Lao Li, and this time he will never accept money again!" Zhu Meiling replied helplessly.

"Oh!" Liu Xing suddenly realized.

In fact, Aunt Hua can't be blamed for this incident. After all, the preserved egg breakfast shop has such a large turnover that it is really too busy for one person to pay the cashier without paying attention for a while.

That is to say, you have to buy a money detector specially designed for checking money. Liu Xing shook his head when he thought of this. Only then did he realize that running a rice noodle shop well is far from as simple as he imagined.

Just as I was about to pay Little Peanut to play, there was noise and insults outside the preserved egg breakfast shop: "Who the hell is this breakfast shop that has set up the table! Take it back quickly, or be careful of me!" Smash him!"

"Huh?" Liu Xing walked out with a frown, only to find out that Lao Xiao, the manager of the market, was leading a few unfamiliar middle-aged people to clean up the stalls on both sides of the street with a bad attitude, and the table of his preserved egg breakfast shop Because it was placed outside, it was also cleaned.

It's just that under the obstruction of Lao Xiao, those few middle-aged people who were unfamiliar didn't do anything.

Here, Li Dawei has already taken out a cigarette and greeted him with a smile: "Oh, Lao Xiao, you brought so many people to breakfast! Hurry up! Hurry up! Please come inside!"

"I can't eat today!" Old Xiao said to Li Dawei with a wry smile. Seeing Liu Xing came out, he dragged him to a corner.He whispered: "My colleagues were a bit aggressive just now, don't mind it! They actually have a last resort, after all, the arrangement on the street is too messy, if they don't clean it up, then next month's episode The progress of the city’s redevelopment will be difficult.”

"It's okay, it's okay, I knew it was like this!" Li Dawei handed the whole pack of cigarettes to Lao Xiao, and seeing that he didn't have anything to do, he turned around and went to work on him.

"What? The bazaar will be expanded next month?" Liu Xing's attention was on this sentence. As for the behavior of Lao Xiao's colleague, he didn't take it seriously at all.
