While waiting for the car, Qiao Ruiling asked her son, "Has Lianwa encountered any difficulties recently?" ”

Meng Qing replied lightly: "The competitor used her idea first, it's not a big deal, she can handle it." ”

"Well, that's good." Qiao Ruiling was silent for a few minutes, and then said: "She is a rare good child, don't let people down." ”

Meng Qing nodded, "I won't." ”

"I know you won't." Qiao Ruiling believed her son, "It's just these words, I still can't help but want to say, don't bother me!" ”

Meng Qing: "No. ”

Qiao Ruiling said in a consultative tone: "Lianwa borrowed a lot of money from us, right?" When your dad gets better, I'll go out and find some work, right? ”

"No, you don't." Meng Qing frowned slightly, "You just take care of your father, don't be in a hurry to pay back the money!" ”

"The girl hasn't married yet! We don't owe this money so rightfully and for granted. Qiao Ruiling insisted on her thoughts, "I'm not old enough to work, and I won't look for the kind of coolie who does hard work." Just help the tailor shop with some rush work, or weave a straw hat and fishing nets or something. How much can you earn, over time! ”

Meng Qing pursed her lips tightly and did not speak.

"I know you don't agree, so I've been thinking about it for days." Qiao Ruiling persuaded with good words: "You still have to go to college!" Your job is to study hard, and I don't want my son to worry about money all the time. ”

Meng Qing said helplessly: "I don't worry about money, I will study hard!" You will never fall behind in your homework. ”

"How can you have so much time, college is so good!" Qiao Ruiling said: "You don't always hold on! You rely on me once in a while, can't you? ”

Meng Qing fell silent again.

"How much money did Lianwa take? Can you tell me a quasi-number? It also gave me a bottom in my heart. Qiao Ruiling asked this question several times, but Meng Qing just refused to say it.

"If you don't tell me again, I'll go directly to ask Lianwa!"

Meng Qing smiled bitterly: "She won't tell you, her mouth will only be stricter than mine." ”

"You children!" Qiao Ruiling shook her head helplessly.

Looking at it like this, the money they owe to Lianwa will definitely not be less.

10,000?

If there were so many, she really couldn't afford to do these odd jobs.

At least, it will not be able to pay it back in a few years.

"It's really not good, I'll ask your uncle to borrow some money first!" Qiao Ruiling looked at Meng Qing and felt that this idea was not bad, "Uncle is my own brother, no matter how you say it, it is a family, so it is easier to speak." His furniture factory is doing well, and he should have money on hand. ”

Meng Qing sighed lightly: "Whoever owes money, you have to pay it back quickly." ”

"I know I have to pay it back." After all, Qiao Ruiling's experience is here, and the problem is still very comprehensive.

She looked at her son and said, "Isn't Lianwa going to open a branch?" If you don't have enough money on hand, it will definitely be very inconvenient. Your brother-in-law and aunt-in-law are relatively well-off, and for them, this money may be idle money. Let's just give some interest when we go back, and we won't delay their business. ”

Meng Qing twisted his eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

Mother is not unreasonable.

But he still didn't want to.

Qiao Ruiling patted her son's shoulder, "Think about it!" ”

Meng Qing: "If Lianwa knew that we borrowed the money from my uncle and returned it to her, she would definitely not ask for this money, and she would be angry." ”

"If you're angry, then it's up to you to coax!" Qiao Ruiling smiled lightly, "Can't you coax this?" ”

Meng Qing also laughed, "It's hard to say, I don't feel very coaxed." ”

Qiao Ruiling: "Lianwa won't really be angry with you. ”

"She may not be angry, but she is likely to give the money directly to her brother-in-law." Meng Qing said seriously: "This kind of thing, she can definitely do it." ”

Qiao Ruiling: "......"

What's going on with young people now?!

Are they all so disobedient?

Meng Qing suddenly wanted to laugh a little, "Wait for me to come back and ask her directly!" ”

"Hmm." Qiao Ruiling nodded, agreeing with this idea, "The two of them should have a discussion, instead of guessing, it is better to communicate frankly in person." ”

Two days later, Hu Tao contacted Jiang Zhilian.

After Jiang Zhilian got Tang Xiaolong's permission, she took her sister to attend Grandpa Tang's funeral.

Tang Xianjun told his grandson early on that he didn't need to engage in the traditional cumbersome process after his death.

Simple, no coffins, no cemeteries.

After cremation, the ashes can be scattered along the river.

Be free, casual, and dashing.

It's a good thing for both the living and the dead.

Chen Cuihong didn't shout that she had to go this time, and An An nested in the guest house.

Jiang Youting lowered her head all the way, looking like a sinner.

As soon as she arrived at the river, she began to cry silently.

He cried very restrainedly, and he couldn't hear a sound at all.

But the tears flowed as hard as ever, and the scarf was soaked in a large area.

The people of the Tang family are all in the front place, and they are carrying out a simple farewell ceremony.

Sisters Jiang Zhilian and Jiang Youting stood on the outermost floor.

They are very tacit, they all want to hide themselves, and they don't want to be noticed.

They just came to see off Grandpa Tang, and they didn't want to have any conflicts with the Tang family at this time.

I don't know how much the Tang family knows and whether they will find trouble with them.

Jiang Zhilian wasn't sure if she needed to come forward and explain something.

Even if it needs to be explained, it's certainly not now.

Tang Xiaolong held the portrait of his grandfather, his face expressionless.

Hu Tao accompanied him not far away, and received many unfriendly glances from the Tang family and relatives of the Tang family.

Ay......

Jiang Zhilian sighed lightly.

These days, Hu Tao's life must have been particularly difficult.

His own guilt and small emotions are nothing compared to everything Hu Tao has to face.

"I thought you weren't coming!" Suddenly, someone gently patted Jiang Zhilian on the shoulder.

Jiang Zhilian was watching the farewell ceremony by the river intently, and was frightened by this sudden sound.

turned his head and looked, it turned out to be Ji Guangtian.

"Ji Lao." Jiang Zhilian whispered hello.

Ji Guangtian looked at Jiang Zhilian's side and asked, "Is this your sister?" ”

"Hmm." Jiang Zhilian nodded, "This is my youngest sister, Youting." ”

"Youting." Jiang Zhilian introduced again: "This is Ji Lao, who is an old friend of Grandpa Tang, and has helped me a lot before. ”

Jiang Youting nodded sneeringly at Ji Guangtian, and said with a crying voice: "Hello Grandpa Ji." ”

"The little girl is crying so much!" Ji Guangtian comforted: "It's a blessing that this old man is gone." It's good not to be sinned. ”

Jiang Zhilian explained lightly: "My sister is a little crying bag, and when she cries, she has to cry for a long time. ”

"It's windy by the river, don't cry your eyes." Ji Guangtian looked at the riverside and said, "The ashes have been scattered, and there is nothing to do next." Come and sit down with me. ”

"Where are you going?" Jiang Zhilian looked around and didn't find any people or shops.

"Go in the front lane, and there's a friend of mine." Ji Guangtian explained: "I met when I came here to fish in the summer. ”

Jiang Zhilian preconceived that the person she met in fishing should be an old man, or a middle-aged uncle or something.

As a result, when I entered the house, I saw that it was a gray-haired grandmother.

He looks to be in his eighties, and his back is a little hunched.

But the person is still very energetic, and the voice is crisp and loud.

Her ears are also good, and she can hear her clearly when talking to her at a normal volume.

She lives alone in this small house of about 30 square meters, is a lonely old man, usually lonely, will go to the small river in front of the house to fish.

After Ji Guangtian met her, he would often come over to sit and chat with the elderly.

"This kid's eyes can't cry, oops......" The old grandmother directly reached out to wipe the tears on Jiang Youting's face, "Don't cry, child!" Look at your scarf is going to be soaked, hey, hey, it's so icy that your hands are frozen! ”

She took Jiang Youting's hand and walked towards the back room, "Come over and wash your face with hot water, take off the scarf, grandma will bake it for you." ”

"Why is this kid still crying!" The old grandmother's voice came intermittently from inside the house.

Jiang Zhilian was moved when she heard this, "Grandma is so good." ”

Ji Guangtian: "The old lady likes children, I know that she definitely likes you." ”
