Chapter 130 Seeking skin with the tiger, I regret it later (2)
When Lin DaBao heard the sound and walked in, he heard loud sobbing and small crying in the room. When he saw his wife hugging the child and crying into a ball, he felt uncomfortable in his heart, and his nose felt sore at the same time.
"Don't worry, there will be a way." Lin DaBao stood in the room for a long time, then came over and sat down next to her, reached out and held her hand, comforting her.
"What else can we do? We can't survive this year." Li Dani responded in frustration.
"Go to the aunt for help. The aunt will definitely not ignore us." Lin Dabao blurted out.
"Going to find the aunt? I don't have the face. Hehua came to me several times before and asked me to learn how to cook and eat from the aunt, but I didn't go. Now I don't have the nerve to go." Li Dani said.
"It's okay, auntie won't worry about it so much." Lin Dabao said. Seeing Li Dani, he was still worried, and his tone became firm, "In the worst case, I will kneel down and beg her, and she will definitely agree to help us. She has always been very kind to you.
Yes, if you ask her to borrow some money for the sake of your children, she should agree."
"Alas~"
Li Dani sighed heavily, "We are now very poor and Erbao is about to get married. It is easy to borrow this money, but how can we pay it back?"
"That's not something we should worry about. Our parents make the decisions in our family." Lin Dabao said.
"It's true that parents make the decision, but if we ask to borrow money, of course we have to pay it back." Li Dani hugged the child and said suddenly.
"Then what you mean is that we don't ask and let my parents borrow it?"
"We don't have a boss, so why are we rushing to borrow money? If we want to starve to death, we can all starve to death together."
Li Dani suddenly became angry because she suddenly thought that even if Lin Qingyun and the others borrowed money, they would still have to pay it back. After all, they are a family. Even the two younger brothers are still young, so they will have to pay back the debt in the coming year.
It's going to fall on the couple.
But they don’t know anything, and they don’t even have a piece of land now. How will they pay back the money then?
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but become more and more sad, and burst into tears. Her cries infected the child in her hands, and the mother and daughter cried even more sadly.
"What's going on? Why do I seem to hear someone crying so early in the morning?"
Ye Chuqiu was sitting in the yard making lanterns with great interest, and was startled when she heard crying coming from outside.
"Mom, it seems like Big Leopard's wife is crying." Lin Dahu, who was cutting bamboo strips, stopped the knife in his hand and said.
"Well, your second aunt is really a person. It's not pleasant to find someone early in the morning. We can't care about it. I'll just ask your wife to ask her in two days."
Ye Chuqiu guessed that Li Youmei must be trying to bring bad luck to her again, so she didn't think about it elsewhere. She just continued her hand movements, applying paste to the bamboo strips, and then covered it with the red cloth that had been cut long ago.
The family had bought two lanterns before, but Ye Chuqiu didn't think they were enough. She planned to hang them in front of the house, behind the house, and in the yard. When all the lanterns are lit tonight, the yard will be ablaze with red, which will be beautiful.
.
"Sister-in-law, something big happened."
At this moment, Chai Chunfang walked in hurriedly.
"It's Chinese New Year, what could happen?" Ye Chuqiu waved his hand disapprovingly.
For these two families, even if a piece of meat was taken away by a cat, it was a big deal to them, and Ye Chuqiu didn't care.
"Sister-in-law, something really big happened. My second aunt's house was robbed."
Chai Chunfang clapped her hands and said, "My money, cloth, clothes, food, wine and meat are all gone."
"Did Wu Ming steal it?"
"Sister-in-law, how do you know?"
Chai Chunfang was stunned when she heard Ye Chuqiu's words. She originally wanted to give it away, but she didn't expect Ye Chuqiu to say it directly.
"Who else can be there besides them? They take in bandits and they are seeking the skin of a tiger. What kind of ethics and integrity can those bandits tell you?"
Ye Chuqiu snorted softly, with a bit of contempt in her words. Even though she was speaking eloquently, in fact, she did not foresee this. Most robbers would not rob their own people. Unexpectedly, this Wu Ming had no humanity.
"Sister-in-law, don't you go and take a look?"
Seeing Ye Chuqiu still making his own lantern, Chai Chunfang couldn't help but say something else.
"What am I going to see? They will definitely come to me later."
Ye Chuqiu replied and handed her the two lanterns he had made, "Here, these are the lanterns we made ourselves. You can take two back and hang them up."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Chai Chunfang took the lantern, but did not leave. She just moved a low stool and sat aside, waiting for Li Youmei and others to come over, so that she could watch the excitement.
I really don’t blame her for not being sympathetic. It stands to reason that they brought it upon themselves. Who asked them to take in the robbers before and benefit from them?
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law~"
Sure enough, not long after, Li Youmei came over with a loud voice, her face unwashed, her hair uncombed, and unkempt.
Behind her, Lin Qingyun, Lin Dabao, Li Dani and others all followed.
"Hey, it's not even the first day of the Lunar New Year yet, and you're dragging your whole family over to pay New Year's greetings?" Ye Chuqiu raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Sister-in-law, we are not here to pay New Year greetings, we are here to ask for your help." Li Youmei said with tears in her eyes: "Our home was robbed."
"Isn't it normal for your house to be robbed? The robbers live in your house, so they can rob and take whatever they want?"
Ye Chuqiu said something casually, and her understatement made the couple feel suffocated and a little angry. They felt that Ye Chuqiu was adding insult to injury at this time and had no empathy at all.
"Sister-in-law, we are all like this, can't you have some empathy? Do you have to talk to us in this tone?" Li Youmei said unhappily.
"Then what tone do you want me to use to speak to you?"
Ye Chuqiu put down the brush in his hand and stood up, "You have to ask me to yell at you? You brought this on yourself? You deserve to be scolded?"
The robbers gave you a little profit, but you don't even know your last name, and you have completely lost your hard-working and simple virtues. Now that you have lost a little money, you know how to cry, but you don't know that you have lost more than just
money?
Money can be earned again, but if your character and reputation are lost, it will be difficult to get them back!"
"Sister-in-law!"
Lin Qingyun interrupted Ye Chuqiu's words, but his clenched fists and constantly moving lips told everyone that he was not at peace in his heart.
Yes, he used to be a good worker in the village. When he was in Linjia Village, who would not praise them when they saw him? Although they were tired at that time, they were rich inside.
Since he settled in Lin'an Village and built the house, he has had many turbulent thoughts in his heart, especially when he saw that Ye Chuqiu had built a big house, but his own house was just a mud house, how could he not
Feeling uncomfortable?
The eldest sister-in-law is a prostitute, and she has such abilities, but he is far inferior to even the eldest sister-in-law.
Therefore, when Wu Ming tempted them, he did not reject it outright, because he also wanted to make money, and make a lot of money.
So he knew that this was immoral and inappropriate, but he still did it. He deceived himself into thinking that it was Wu Ming and others who were the robbers, and it had nothing to do with him.
But now that everything in his house had been wiped out by them, he realized the heartache and pain of those who had been robbed by Wu Ming and the others.
