"It's a pity that my aunt came late, and all the money I spent selling grain was used to pay off debts. You saw the big yard where we lived, and we got a lot of credit. As soon as the grain was sold, I took my son to the town to pay off the credit.
The debt was paid off just the day before yesterday, and many people know about it."
When Yan heard this, his face suddenly fell, "...Is everything paid back?"
"Isn't that right? In addition to the money from selling grain, I also put in all the money I have saved recently. Even our own life is very tight. In order to make our money easier, I also deliberately took the earth dragon root I saved last year.
I went to the town drugstore and sold it. I got a few hundred pennies, and I thought I could make it through the summer harvest."
"I have a problem, that is, I can't owe money. I can't sleep every day these days when I have to pay for credit. No, as soon as spring begins, I immediately start selling grain to pay off the debt, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's explanation, Yan was stunned and felt regretful. Why didn't she come earlier?
Now it's better. It was a waste of time and I didn't even catch a hair.
Bai Yunxi looked at Yan's regretful expression and shook her head.
"I'm really sorry that I couldn't help you. Auntie, I'll think of other ways."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's pity tone, Mrs. Yan came back to her senses and looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law opposite. They were dressed in half-hearted clothes. They were neatly ironed and had no wrinkles at all. Then she looked at the big yard in front of her.
The landlord's house in the village next door is like this.
"Oh, if I can't even help my eldest niece, then I, an old woman, can't do anything."
If someone from such a wealthy family said they had no money, they definitely didn't want to lend it to her.
Although everything this damn girl said was correct, Yan was still very doubtful.
Even if you pay off the debt, you still have to leave some money behind. How can you tighten your belt just to pay off the debt?
Listening to Mrs. Yan's thoughts, Baiyunxi raised her eyebrows, picked up the bowl and took a sip of tea, hiding the smile on her lips.
You are right. How difficult is it to make some money? You can just borrow it if you ask for it?
Especially the kind of people who come to take advantage when they smell the smell of meat. If they lend it out, they will beat the dogs with meat buns.
For a moment, the atmosphere became awkward.
Mrs. Du looked at her mother-in-law, turned to look at Wenyou who was leaning against the pillar, blinked her eyes,
"Mom, aren't you going to dig wild vegetables in the back mountains and try some fresh food? Sister Wen has been waiting for you for a long time, are you still going?"
Hearing Du's reminder, Bai Yunxi put down the bowl, "Thank you for reminding me, I almost forgot. Help me prepare the basket and shovel. I have made an appointment with you, Mrs. Song, and I can't break the appointment."
Saying that, Bai Yunxi stood up and looked at Yan apologetically,
"Auntie, don't be anxious. The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. My cousin is already old and is not a three-year-old child. He knows what to do in the future. When our family couldn't survive, we had to carry the big bag.
It is common to open up wasteland when you are hungry. Only by soaking in the bitter water can you understand that good days are all made by hard work."
"God is fair. As long as you are diligent and capable, life will always be good... Of course, if you are someone who likes to relax and hate work, you are destined to endure hardship."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's pointed tone, Yan's face turned blue and red.
Her son's reputation in the village is about the same as Bai Lezi's, and the two often hang out together. He hasn't married a wife in his thirties, and apart from being unable to expose the family, he just has a bad reputation.
It's one thing for her to know this in her heart, but it's another thing for someone to reveal it to her face.
Moreover, being taught a lesson by a junior made me feel even more uncomfortable.
