Chapter 308: Family Affairs
Ma Jianxiong sat at the table for a long time, but he didn't see his sister Ma Xiaolian serving the meal, and threw the chopsticks on the table.
"Mom, I'm full, I'm going to read a book. After Ma Jianxiong finished speaking, he walked into the house, and then closed the door with a "bang".
"Jianxiong, Jianxiong, you haven't eaten yet, why are you full? You open the door, it's your sister's fault, I asked her to apologize to you. Jianxiong is obedient and obedient. Niu Yizhen stood in front of the door, easy to say, but Ma Jianxiong just didn't come out.
"I've made you see the joke. In the hall, Ma Xiaolian was obviously used to such a scene, and said to Su Jingchen with some embarrassment.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's my reason that makes your family unhappy. Su Jingchen said.
Ma Xiaolian walked outside her brother's room, knocked on the door, and then said impatiently: "Ma Jianxiong, you just say it, how can you come out?"
"I'm not coming out, I'm not eating, and I'm not going to take this university! As soon as Ma Jianxiong said this, Niu Yizhen was frightened, and he quickly reprimanded Ma Xiaolian.
"Jianxiong, if you tell your mother anything, your mother will satisfy you. Niu Yizhen's tone was even more relaxed, for fear of angering her son again.
"Tell you, is it useful to tell you? My classmates all wear AJ, and I wear broken shoes, can you buy them for me? Ma Jianxiong's voice came from inside the house.
"What is AJ? Mom played mahjong in the morning for 50 yuan, it's all for you, right?" Niu Yizhen said.
Ma Jianxiong in the room stopped talking, and after a while, there was a sound of smashing things.
"Xiaolian, do you know what AJ is?" Niu Yizhen stood outside the house for a while, then turned to Ma Xiaolian and asked.
Hearing this, Ma Xiaolian also shook her head in confusion.
"AJ is a kind of shoe bar, the cheapest is about 1500 pairs. Su Jingchen watched the drama for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say.
"Xiaolian, you see that your brother is about to take the university entrance examination, can you ......" Niu Yizhen said with some embarrassment.
"Mom, are you crazy? I work in a restaurant, and my salary is only 500 yuan a month. Just 1500 for a pair of shoes, are you planning to starve our family to death? Hearing this, Ma Xiaolian suddenly became excited.
"I'm going to talk about it, and I didn't say I have to buy it. Besides, Jianxiong is your own brother, what's wrong with you buying him a pair of shoes? He's also a college student soon, and it's normal to buy a pair of shoes when he goes out. Don't you have a lot of promising classmates, you go and ask them to borrow some, and then you can't pay it back?"
"Mom, you have to have a conscience. Back then, I was admitted to a key high school in the county, and you said that the family had no money. I cried and begged the school leaders to give me free tuition, and you said that the cost of achievement was high. I studied in the town high school for three years, ranking first in the school every year, and the top five in the city in the mock exam. But you said that my family was poor and could not afford to send my two children to school, so I had to drop out of school. Okay, I dropped out of school and went to work in a restaurant. Now, you want me to ask someone to borrow money for this younger brother who can't even pass the second exam. Mom, am I your own child? Ma Xiaolian asked with red eyes.
As soon as Niu Yizhen heard this, she was immediately so angry that she raised her hand to slap her daughter, but was stopped by Su Jingchen.
"Get out of the way. This girl has stiff wings now, and she dares not to listen to me. Ma Xiaolian, let me tell you, you are just a daughter, you will marry in the future, after all, you are an outsider. In the future, everything in this family will be your brother's, so don't think about it. Niu Yizhen said with a dark face.
Ma Xiaolian's temper also came up at this time, and she was about to hit the wall as soon as she gritted her teeth, but Su Jingchen hurriedly grabbed her.
Su Jingchen was also very helpless at this time. It stands to reason that Ma Xiaolian saved him, and he will do his best to satisfy whatever Ma Xiaolian wants. But after all, this matter is a family affair, and he can't say anything.
"Xiaolian, no. Isn't it 1,500 yuan, I have it. ”
"Where are you? Niu Yizhen's eyes straightened when she heard that Su Jingchen was rich.
"How can you be such a mother? Su Jingchen secretly felt worthless for Ma Xiaolian in his heart, and subconsciously took out a black card from his pocket.
"What we want is money, what are you doing with this thing!" Niu Yizhen's tone was full of dissatisfaction.
Su Jingchen then remembered that this was not a big city, and there was no way to swipe the card.
"I'll transfer it to you. Su Jingchen took out his mobile phone and was just about to transfer money, but found that the screen was pitch black, and he couldn't help but feel hot and embarrassed.
"Well, my phone is out of battery, can you find me a charger for my fruit phone?"
"What is a fruit phone? Ma Xiaolian's eyes widened and she wondered.
"Oh, fruit phone, I know. Aunt Wang, who played mahjong with me today, her son just bought one, but she bleached it, and she showed off in front of me for a long time. You wait, I'll go and borrow the charger. Thinking that he would soon have money to buy shoes for his son, Niu Yizhen was excited and volunteered to leave.
Within a few minutes, Niu Yizhen came back with a fruit charger. Su Jingchen plugged the connector into the phone, but there was no response at all.
"Oh no, this phone may have been flooded. Su Jingchen scratched his head and said. Only then did he remember that when he escaped from Lushan, he was climbing and crossing mountains, and he also passed through several small rivers, and his mobile phone must have entered the water on the road.
"What kind of mobile phone got into the water? I see that your kid is in the water when our brains are in the water, right? Xiaolian, this person must be a liar, you can drive him away for me immediately! Niu Yi Zhen said viciously.
"Wait a minute, I have a way, I can definitely do it this time! Xiaolian, you give me your mobile phone, can't I use your mobile phone to log in to my account? Su Jingchen said in surprise. "Forget it, Xiaolian, give him another chance. If it doesn't work this time, drive him away immediately. Niu Yizhen said.
"Auntie, don't worry, if it doesn't work out this time, you don't need to rush, I'll go by myself. Su Jingchen said with an oath.
He took Ma Xiaolian's old second-hand copycat machine, but found that there was no software to use on it, and there was no app store. He hurriedly used a search engine to find a way to install an app on his phone.
Half an hour later, the app was finally installed. Su Jingchen opened the app with excitement and entered his account and password.
"Hello, it has been detected that this account has been replaced, please click Send SMS verification code to verify......" Looking at the line of words that appeared on the mobile phone screen, Su Jingchen wanted to cry without tears.
"Let's eat, let's eat. Ma Xiaolian took the mobile phone and put it on the table and said to Su Jingchen.
"It's a nice day. Su Jingchen held back for a long time and finally held back a sentence. This was the first time in his life that he really felt the true meaning of the word "embarrassment."
"It's snowing these days. Niu Yizhen silently dropped a sentence and turned around and went into the kitchen.
"Don't take my mother's words to heart, she speaks poisonously, and sometimes even I can't stand it. Ma Xiaolian muttered in a low voice.
Su Jingchen smiled slightly, but in his heart, he felt that Ma Xiaolian, this little girl, was very interesting.
More than just fun. Although Ma Xiaolian looked a little rustic because she was wearing a shabby big flower, and she didn't wear makeup, she could see that her facial features were delicate and her skin was fair. Coupled with a tall and thin figure, as long as she dresses up a little, she will definitely be a first-class beauty.
"Mom, what are you doing? Niu Yizhen returned to the dining table with a big bowl and picked up all the meat in a plate of potato roast meat, Ma Xiaolian couldn't help asking.
"Your brother hasn't eaten yet, leave some for him. He's about to take an exam, and he's going to have to keep up. Niu Yizhen muttered while picking up vegetables.
"But you've taken all the meat, how can we eat it?"
"You're a girl, why do you eat so much meat? If you're as fat as me, how will you get married in the future? By the way, the aunt I told you about before,
His son is an iron rice bowl, and he is also honest, so you will meet with others another day. Niu Yizhen opened the bowl of meat and returned to the table to continue eating.
"There's nothing to eat, you'll eat some, and I'll go to the farmer's market tomorrow and cut some fresh meat for you to make braised pork to eat." Ma Xiaolian put a chopstick of shredded potatoes into the bowl, then pulled a big mouthful of rice, and said to Su Jingchen with some embarrassment.
"No, it's already good. Su Jingchen hurriedly replied.
He really didn't mean to say that. After staying in the city for so long, coming and going in star-rated hotels, and now that he suddenly eats this authentic rural home-cooked food, Su Jingchen has a great appetite and eats three bowls of rice.
Of course, this move quickly turned into one word in Niu Yizhen's eyes, that is: poor.
After eating, Su Jingchen got up and walked out.
"Where are you going?" asked Ma Xiaolian.
"Go out and get some money, and buy a mobile phone by the way. By the way, Xiaolian, what kind of mobile phone do you like, I'll bring you one, your mobile phone is too difficult to use. Su Jingchen put on his coat with holes everywhere and said.
"No...... No need. My phone is always a little old, and it's not that it can't be used, so don't waste this money. Ma Xiaolian lowered her head, looking a little twisted.
"I said Xiaolian, you can have a snack. You really believe what he says. Just this card, at first glance, it is fake. How can a normal bank card have this color, deceive us that we haven't seen a bank card? I think this kid just doesn't want to take the 1,500 yuan, wants to smear oil on the soles of his feet, and sneaks away. Niu Yizhen crossed his waist with both hands,
There was a look of disdain on his face.
"Auntie, just for 1,500 yuan, no. 1,500 yuan, I used to make more than that money when I delivered takeaways. Su Jingchen blurted out.
During these years, the hardest time was when I was a delivery boy. During that time, he slept in the basement and got up early every day to deliver takeaways, rain or shine. Despite this, he was not able to earn much money for various reasons. But even so, three or four dollars a month is not a problem.
Who knew that after Niu Yizhen heard this, she seemed to have discovered a new world, and said to her daughter Ma Xiaolian: "Look, this is not a self-confession." It's just a food delivery person, what kind of big-tailed wolf is it? 1 million is too little, you don't brag that X will die?"
Su Jingchen didn't bother to respond to the question. Su Jingchen, a person like Niu Yizhen, has seen a lot, and he is the master who bullies the soft and fears the hard. To deal with such people, you have to show your strong skills and make them intimidating. Therefore, Su Jingchen ignored Ma Xiaolian's dissuasion, and walked into the vast snow without hesitation.
When he was in the mountains, there were trees to block him, and Su Jingchen didn't think much of it. But in the middle of the town, the wind and snow were raging, and in only a few days, the roads were already full of snow.
Su Jingchen walked in the snow with shallow feet, leaving a series of footprints behind him. During these three days of slumber, the true qi in his body automatically flowed, and his injuries were somewhat better. It's just that the troubles left by the previous forced use of the "Nine Turns Divine Needle" have begun to appear. With his current ability, let alone a strong man of the Extreme Dao, he was afraid that a random high-level martial artist would kill him.
Ma Xiaolian's home is about 2 kilometers away from the town. It took Su Jingchen 20 minutes to finally walk to the town, then from the east of the town to the west of the town, and from the south of the town to the north of the town, before finally accepting the fact that there was not even a bank in the town. What's more, Su Jingchen's card had to go to a special bank to withdraw money.
