Country Love: My stepmother, Yang Xiaoyan, told me to tone it down.

"I work in engineering."

Xu Hui introduces himself.

"Secretly using bulldozers to demolish people's houses and acting as thugs, huh?"

Xiao Mei smiled bitterly.

"No, our project has strict approval procedures, and there is no improper operation involved."

Xu Hui was too lazy to explain any further.

"Let them misunderstand. Women are fascinating creatures; I'm used to it. The bill's already paid. Goodbye!"

Xu Hui stood up.

Ding! Cashback successful! Your bank card balance increased by 3000 yuan!

Thirty-one cups of coffee.

If it weren't for the cashback notification sound, Xu Hui would have wanted to ignore her from now on.

"What a self-righteous jerk!"

Xie Xiaomei scoffed.

Recently.

Xiaomei always acted suspiciously when she came home, and several times the waterproofing workers came to wait for her.

"call……"

back home.

Breathe a long sigh of relief.

Xiaomei quickly locked the door from the inside and then moved a table to block the door.

Thankfully, they didn't waterproof it this time, so they're here to nitpick.

The house has damaged waterproofing and insulation, poor sound insulation, and even the drain pipes are about to crack.

Xiaomei dreams of moving to a new house.

Unfortunately, she didn't even have enough money for a down payment.

My group of best friends are also living paycheck to paycheck. They have no money to lend, but they'd lend us their lives.

She lay in bed, casually flipping through her phone's contact list.

Suddenly, the plane slid to Liu Yishui.

He runs a breeding farm, so he should have plenty of money.

In addition, Xiaomei recently helped resolve the rabbit plague outbreak at the farm, which was a significant contribution.

"Hey, Manager Liu, are you asleep?"

"No, what's up?"

At this moment.

Liu Yishui is welding a stone mill for an electric motor.

in the afternoon.

The dozens of electric motors that Xiao Meng ordered were delivered to the breeding farm. Liu Yishui planned to weld and debug them all, and then take them to Xiao Meng's house after he was done.

"How's the farm doing lately?"

Xie Xiaomei asked indirectly.

"Not bad, thanks to you, technician, otherwise we would have suffered huge losses if we had contracted rabbit hemorrhagic disease."

Liu Yishui expressed his gratitude.

"Um... there's something I want to tell you..."

Xie Xiaomei lowered her voice.

"Just say it! What's there to be shy about? You're the savior of the farm; your problems are my problems!"

Liu Yishui was joking.

"I want to borrow money."

"Borrow money?"

Liu Yishui was taken aback.

Xiao Mei held her breath and could clearly feel that Liu Yishui had stopped breathing for several seconds.

"How much to borrow?"

"Lend me 30,000, or 10,000 if you're short on cash."

Xie Xiaomei lowered her stance and said.

"Okay, 30,000 it is. I'll downsize my rabbit shed a bit."

"That's wonderful, Director Liu, I really don't know how to thank you!!"

Xie Xiaomei said excitedly.

She had always admired Liu Yishui, and he was so generous.

If he proposed to her now, she'd be tempted to say yes.

Xiaomei had done the math: the down payment for the new house was 8 yuan.

Her old, dilapidated apartment, which is only 60 square meters, can be sold for 4 yuan.

Xiaomei has saved 1 yuan in just one year since graduation.

Liu Yishui borrowed 3 yuan.

That adds up to exactly 8.

"Director Liu, when can I have some?"

Xie Xiaomei could not hide her excitement.

"Are you in a hurry?"

"Not urgent."

Xiaomei is saying one thing and meaning another.

I wish Liu Yishui would deliver it right now.

"How about this, I happen to be going to the county town on business tomorrow afternoon, so I'll give you the money then."

"Okay, I'll write you an IOU later!"

Xiao Mei said excitedly.

Even the title changed from "Director Liu" to "Yi Shui".

"Yishui, what are you doing right now? How about I treat you to dinner?"

"I'm busy assembling the electric stone mill for Xiaomeng; she needs it tomorrow."

Little Meng, Little Meng, it's Little Meng again.

Xie Xiaomei knew perfectly well that in Liu Yishui's heart, she was far inferior to her.

He still said:

"Yishui, it's already 10 pm and you're still busy. Don't overwork yourself!"

"I know, I'm hanging up."

"Bye~!"

Xiao Mei said tenderly.

After hanging up, he gave the phone screen a big kiss.

"Great! We'll pay the down payment tomorrow!"

Xiaomei hugged the life-sized teddy bear on the bed, kissing it and rolling around with it.

Those were ready-built houses; once you paid the down payment, you could renovate and move in.

11 pm.

Xiaomei called several of her close friends to bother them and share the good news.

They didn't hang up until one or two in the morning.

This night.

Xiaomei has insomnia.

the next day.

Early in the morning, Xiaomei went to a real estate agency and sold the property for a fixed price of 4 yuan.

With the building over 40 years old, Xiaomei didn't want to stay there for even a minute longer.
