Chapter 5 Borrowing money
"Okay, Mom, Chen Xiao is gone, who are you going to show like this!" Sister Hui Xue put the stick noodles away, and then returned to the table to eat.
These 20 catties of coarse grain helped their family a lot, enough for their family to eat for a week.
"Huixue, you go back and explain to Chen Xiao, don't let people misunderstand. Sister Huixue's mother-in-law said to her.
"No need Mom, Chen Xiao knows that Dahu didn't mean her. β
Hearing Sister Huixue say this, the old lady understood that Chen Xiao was hugging the two children, of course, this is likely to be for herself, because she is usually like this, if the two children eat at home today, they will also eat wowotou, and the white-flour steamed buns are still for her son.
"I've eaten, you can eat, I'll go to the backyard and have a look. Sister Huixue put down the dishes and chopsticks.
"Go ahead and explain it well. The old lady arranged again.
γγγγγγ
In the backyard, Chen Pi sat on a rattan chair and drank water, Chen Xiao was doing his homework on the table in the hall, and the two children sat next to him and ate melon seeds, and they didn't make a fuss, there were melon seeds and snacks on the table.
There is never a shortage of melon seed dim sum in Chen Pi's house, and sometimes Chen Xiao will give it to the two children, and Chen Pi should not be seen.
There was a knock on the door.
Chen Xiao hurriedly ran over to open the door, and Jiao Huixue stood outside. "Sister Huixue, you're here, come in. β
"Ahh β
Chen Pi has rules in the house, it should be said that it is Chen Piding's rules, no one can come in this house except for him and his sister, don't look at Sister Hui Xue often washes their clothes, and they have never gone in, and the dirty clothes are all placed outside.
"Sister Huixue, just come in, you see, Xiaoyu and Xiaoqin both came in, and my brother didn't seem to say anything. Chen Xiao whispered in Jiao Huixue's ear.
"Oh well. β
Jiao Huixue came in, this was the first time she had entered this room, not only her, but even Xiaoyu and Xiaoqin had come in for the first time.
"Sister Huixue, there is a melon seed snack on the table, take whatever you want to eat, I'll pour you a glass of water. β
"No need Chen Xiao, I'm not thirsty, my sister has something to do with you. β
"What's the matter, Sister Huixue? β
"Sister wants to borrow you ten dollars. To tell you the truth, my sister will have no money on the fifteenth of this month. β
The money that came in has always been in the hands of Chen Xiao, so of course you have to find Chen Xiao to borrow money, although Chen Xiao is still a child, it can be said that she is definitely a little rich woman.
"Sister Huixue, it was no problem an hour ago, but now you can only borrow it from my brother, and our family's money is now in my brother's care. β
To tell the truth, when Chen Xiao took out the money and handed it to Hanpi, he startled Hanpi, a whole four, this is 4,000 yuan, and he got 1,000 yuan from Xu Dahai, Hanpi was very happy, and compared it to his sister, it was nothing.
What is the concept of 4,000 at this time, let's put it this way, you can buy two houses in the city, or even buy a small courtyard, the kind of small courtyard house for the family, which is the kind of three main houses and two partial houses.
Jiao Huixue wanted to open her mouth to say to Hanpi, but she didn't know how to speak, or Chen Xiao saw it, Jiao Huixue was embarrassed to open her mouth.
"Brother, Sister Huixue wants to borrow ten yuan. β
Han Pi pretended to take out the money from his pocket, but in fact he took it from the space, and the five large solidarities were placed on the table.
"Not so much, just ten dollars. β
"Sister Huixue, you are thirty-two yuan a month, it is said that there are six people in your family, and each person is more than five yuan per month, it should be about the same, why is the money not enough to spend every month. Chen Xiao didn't understand this.
She and her brother have fifteen yuan a month for living expenses, it can be said that they eat fine grains, and they run out of meat and vegetable tickets every month, and what Jiao Huixue eats at home is all coarse grains, and she can't eat meat a few times a year.
"Chen Xiao, it's different, we have a lot of children, although the clothes are big and worn for the small, but when you really grow your body, you change your clothes quickly, and you eat a lot, I guess you have also found out, just Xiaoyu Xiaoqin and two people, they can catch up with an adult to eat. β
Jiao Huixue is a substitute for work, and her length of service is not enough, she only has thirty-two yuan and a half per month, and her normal salary should be thirty-seven yuan and a half, although it is five yuan less, but this is too far behind.
This is not bad, when I was eating just now, Xiaoyu Xiaoqin and the two of them, they both ate more than Hanpi, of course, this may also be a lack of oil and water in the stomach, if you eat like this every day, it is estimated that you won't be able to eat so much.
"In the future, Xiaoyu Xiaoqin eats at our house, and only goes home to sleep at night. Hanpi took back three pieces of money from the table and stuffed the other twenty yuan to Jiao Huixue.
Jiao Huixue's expression can now be described as dumbfounded, she has been married to this hospital for several years, and today is the first time she has heard Hanpi say so many words, usually scolding, or "um" and "hum" or something like that.
"Did you speak?" said Jiao Huixue for a long time.
"Am I talking strangely, you won't be surprised when you look at Xiaoyu and Xiaoqin. β
Jiao Huixue hurriedly glanced at Xiaoyu and Xiaoqin, and found that the two children had no reaction at all, they should eat melon seeds and eat melon seeds, it seems that these two children have long known the situation of Hanpi.
"Hahaha, alas! Everyone says that they are naΓ―ve, if they say that they are more silly than naΓ―ve, don't worry, I won't say it. β
"Sister Huixue, the fish I sent you over was made by my brother, how about it, it's delicious, right?"
"Uhhh......h
Seeing Jiao Huixue's expression, Chen Xiao understood, it is estimated that Jiao Huixue didn't even take a sip of the soup. "Hmph! This old lady Liu is too much. β
"Forget it, it's all about the stomach. β
"Sister Huixue, you can have some snacks. Chen Xiao hurriedly took the peach cake on the table to Jiao Huixue.
"No, no, no, I don't eat it, you can keep it for yourself. β
"Sister Huixue, it's not that you don't know, our family doesn't lack this, you can eat it, and I'll buy it after eating." β
After eating two pieces of peach cake, Jiao Huixue left, and thanked Han Pi for her kindness, the twenty yuan helped her a lot, to be honest, she is embarrassed to borrow money now, if there is no way, to be honest, she will not come, because she has borrowed enough, and she has not paid it back once, not because she doesn't want to pay it back, but no.
After Jiao Huixue left, Hanpi asked his sister to get a piece of paper for herself, and then took a pen, and began to write what she needed, basically all kinds of spices, of course, just raw materials, and when he came back, he had to match it himself, and he was going to go to the countryside tomorrow.
The two children played until they were sleepy, and then let Chen Xiao send them back to sleep.
"Brother, aren't you resting?"
"You don't have to worry about me, you go and rest. β
