Xu Jianlin came because Liu Mei had just heard the wolf howl of meat, and guessed that someone from the Ruan family had returned, so she asked him to come over to borrow money from the Ruan family.

  Over the years, Xu Jianlin has owed a lot of money to the Ruan family, and he hasn't counted the seven or eight loans himself, and he hasn't paid them back once.

  Liu Mei was scared at first, afraid that people would ask them for it, but after so many years, seeing that they had never asked for it, she simply lost her face and instigated Xu Jianlin to borrow it.

  So when she saw the Ruan family coming back today, it was naturally another instigation, in her opinion, the Ruan family was very rich anyway, and it was not bad to lend them more than ten yuan or a hundred.

  It's just that Xu Jianlin didn't expect that it would be Old Man Shu who opened the door.

  Although Old Man Shu had been to Xiahe Village six years ago, Xu Jianlin was not impressed, but when he saw that the other party was dressed, he knew that he was not an ordinary person, so he suddenly became a little timid, and subconsciously wanted to retreat.

  But as soon as he took two steps back, he heard Ruan Lin's voice coming from the house: "Jiaojiao and his grandfather, who is coming?"

  Old man Shu got out of the way, Ruan Lin saw Xu Jianlin at this time, although she often came back, but she hadn't met Xu Jianlin for a long time, seeing the other party's appearance, she immediately frowned, the last time she saw him seemed to be a few years ago, I felt that he was too old too fast, and he didn't look as good as her.

  "Jianlin, do you have something to do? Come in, come in, it's windy at the door. There were a lot of thoughts in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, and she smiled and raised her voice to greet her.

  After greeting her, she put down the small hoe and a basket of bamboo shoots in her hand, walked to the courtyard and shook some well water, washed her hands with mud, the well water that had just been hit was warm, she wiped it on her body after washing, and returned to the water on the side of the charcoal fire to roast the water in her hands, and saw that Xu Jianlin had not come in, so she had to get up and come over again and pull him in.

  Side said: "What are you doing on the air outlet, are you going to sell any dry goods, where are you putting it?" As he spoke, his eyes swept around him, but he didn't see it, and he suddenly became suspicious.

  Liu Mei has been sick since autumn, and she can't go down to the ground, she has been doing it, and when she is sick, she is even more day by day, Xu Jianlin has not gone out to do odd jobs for a long time, and even the crops in the field are deserted, let alone picking wild vegetables and drying goods.

  He came purely to borrow money this time, Liu Mei said that seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming, let him come to the Ruan family to borrow money, and it was best to borrow two or three hundred, because Xu Cheng was older, and they were all young men in junior high school, and they didn't have decent clothes.

  Although he really can't open that mouth, but there is no way, he can't open the pot at home now, if he can't borrow money this time, their family will have to starve to death this winter.

  But who knew that it was either Old Man Shu or Ruan Lin's family, what kind of reputation Ruan Lin's family had in the village? Where did he dare to borrow money from her, he subconsciously wanted to leave, but he was unwilling, and wanted to wait to see if Ruan Jianguo would come over, who knew that he was directly pulled in by Ruan Lin's family, and asked him about dry goods, but he felt that his face was burning, and he didn't dare to look at Ruan Lin's face.

  Ruan Lin has lived for most of her life, Xu Jianlin knew that something was wrong at a glance, her eyes flashed, she pretended not to know anything, and asked, "Are you here to find Jianguo?"

  Xu Jianlin immediately nodded: "Yes, aunt...... Where is he, aunt?"26
