"I've been looking for you for so long, and I've finally found you." He walked in, ignoring the ugly expressions on the family's faces, sat down in a chair, and said lazily, "What about eating?" I haven't eaten it yet, and I'm thinking about what happened between you and me. ”

Cheng Jiahua laughed, he made a flattering expression, and said, "Brother Chen, you, why are you here so late?" ”

"Don't you know that I'm so late?" Chen Ye glared at him, "Cheng Jiahua, you don't have to do this." When you borrowed the money at the beginning, I lent it to you without saying a word about our relationship, why, I want you to pay back the money now, and you can't see the person you are hiding, you use me Chen Ye as a fool to coax me? ”

"No, no, how could I!" Cheng Jiahua hurriedly said, "I really don't have any money in my hands, really, you see-" He pointed to the light of the candle flickering, "I haven't paid the electricity bill yet, I want to have money, and I'll pay it back to you a long time ago, right?" ”

Chen Ye smiled coldly, and didn't look at the direction he was pointing, "I don't care if you have money or not, I'm in a hurry to use the money now, you return my share first, I promise never to come to you in the future, otherwise, look at the group of brothers behind me, you won't have a good time here in the future, you two children-" He looked at Cheng Yan who was huddled behind Hetu and Cheng Lin in her arms, "I don't want to have a good time." ”

He Tu hurriedly rushed to Cheng Jiahua to make a color, and motioned for him to quickly think of an idea to send the group away. But Cheng Jiahua didn't notice her gesture at all, he also felt very flustered in his heart, and subconsciously touched his pocket, he really didn't have a penny, what did he take back? Take human life in return? In a panic, he stood up suddenly, and said as if he was out of his mind: "I really don't have any money, Brother Chen, why don't you take my life!" Anyway, I'm having a bad day! ”

Chen Ye squinted at him, as if he was wondering if he was telling the truth or a lie to scare him, the two of them stared at each other for a long time, Chen Ye stood up with a frown, and said: "I'll give you another night's time, I'll get the money tomorrow, if you still fool me with this reason tomorrow, I, Chen Ye, am not a vegetarian, and I'll let you go if I say I'll let you go." With that, he turned and walked outside, and the crowd behind him whistled at Hetu and followed him.

As soon as the figures of the group disappeared into the darkness, he stood up and said sharply, "Look at it! Look! Just tell me how to solve this matter! If you want to send your life yourself, you can send it, don't burden me and the child into it! ”

"Shut up!" Cheng Jiahua yelled in dismay, threw down his chopsticks and walked in the direction of the living room, ignoring Hedi's loud shouting. Hetu is very anxious, but what's the use of her being anxious, she has no choice but to be anxious. Looking at the panicked expressions on the faces of the two young children, she felt angry and hopeless in her heart, and she really didn't know how to go on well.

Chen Ye came like this, her appetite was gone, and after taking care of the two children and eating, she supported her spirit and reluctantly cleaned the kitchen, and then hugged Cheng Lin and dragged her tired steps towards the bedroom. It was dark in the bedroom, there was no light at all, and I don't know if Cheng Jiahua had fallen asleep.

He lit a candle, fixed it on the table, and glanced towards the bed. I saw Cheng Jiahua pilllowing his head on his two arms, looking at the ceiling with his eyes wide open, not knowing what he was thinking. He Tu frowned, washed Cheng Yan's face, and said, "Have you figured out a way?" What will we do if they come back tomorrow? ”

Cheng Jiahua didn't seem to hear her, still staring blankly at the ceiling. He waited for a long time, but did not wait for his response. She sighed, she didn't plan to hear anything pleasing from his mouth, she wrung out the towel, wiped it on Cheng Yan's face, and told the child to go to bed quickly, while she picked up the basin and prepared to pour out the water.

At this time, Cheng Jiahua suddenly turned over from the bed and sat up, looked at her directly, and muttered, "I know, I know." ”

He paused for a moment, glanced back at him, and asked, "What do you know?" ”

"Aren't you quite good with that Zheng Xi?" Cheng Jiahua said hurriedly, his eyes shining in the faint candlelight, "Didn't he lend you money?" You borrow money from him tomorrow, he has a lot of money anyway. Deal with this group of people first, and then talk about the rest later. ”

He Tu looked at him in disbelief, and it took a long time to realize what he meant, her face suddenly turned red, her eyebrows rose angrily, and she put the basin in her hand on the ground heavily, and said, "What are you talking about!" Let's not talk about anything else, I haven't even spoken to that Zheng Xi a few times, why do you say that I want to be good with him? Besides, he lent me money because you were friends with him, and if you want to borrow money, you also borrow it from him, so what's the matter if I borrow it! ”

Cheng Jiahua snorted, frowned, and said, "You woman is really ignorant, I'll borrow it from him, so do I want to lose face?" It's different if you go to borrow, you are a woman, even if he doesn't want to borrow, he can't refuse you, you cry in front of him, and you're afraid that he won't borrow? ”

"What are you doing with me!" He was extremely angry, and his voice unconsciously became louder, "You don't want to borrow, just let me borrow it?" I don't owe this money, so why should I borrow money from others, I'm still a person I don't know very well! ”

Cheng Jiahua suddenly sneered, he hugged his arms, squinted at Hetu, and said coldly: "You are not familiar with him, you are not familiar with him, can he lend you money?" For the sake of me being friends with him, that's! If you want to say that you are not familiar, I am not familiar with him, you and him, hum, I am very familiar, right? ”

"You want to be shameless!" He Tu stomped his foot fiercely, and his face became more and more red, "No matter how I say it, I am also the daughter-in-law of your Cheng family!" How can you splash dirty water like this! I don't borrow, whoever loves to borrow will borrow! She sat down on a small stool and turned her head away.

"You really don't want to borrow?" Cheng Jiahua looked at her and asked.

"Don't borrow!" He snorted and replied heavily.

Cheng Jiahua snorted coldly, lay down on the bed again, and said lazily: "If you don't borrow it, then there is no way to send Chen Ye's gang, I will pack up my luggage and leave early tomorrow morning, hide far away, I will see how you girls will live here in the future." ”

He Tu looked at Cheng Jiahua incredulously, she didn't expect him to think so in his heart, it turned out that she and the two children had no weight in his heart, and they were not even as good as the bunch of white mahjong who couldn't speak, he would rather throw them down alone to face those creditors than come up with a useful way to solve the current problem, she couldn't help but become more and more disappointed and disgusted with him in her heart.

Cheng Jiahua waited for a long time and didn't wait for Hedi's response, and couldn't help but move the corner of his eye and glanced at her. He sat on the stool in despair, as if he had been hit hard. Cheng Jiahua couldn't help but laugh proudly in her heart, she must be afraid, afraid that if she leaves, she and her two children will not be able to deal with that group of people, otherwise according to her temper, she would have jumped up and scolded him. He lay back with peace of mind, patiently waiting for Hedi's reaction, ready to say something.

"Okay." I don't know how long it took, but he finally said dejectedly, "I'll borrow it." After saying this, it was as if she had sold the most precious thing on her body, and she felt that she had suddenly become a corpse that could only speak and act, and she could not feel herself at all.

Cheng Jiahua laughed twice, the pressure in his heart suddenly relaxed, and sleepiness followed, he turned over and quickly fell asleep.

He was asleep, but he couldn't, her heart hesitated, she struggled, she thought, she regretted why she had agreed to him to borrow money, and at the same time she felt a little relieved that she had found a temporary solution to the matter, and for a moment she was ashamed that she had such thoughts. She couldn't imagine the scene where she went to borrow money from Zheng Xi, she thought of Zheng Xi's face, but she felt that there was always a layer of fog on that face, and she couldn't see it clearly, and naturally she couldn't imagine what kind of actions he would make or what kind of words he would say. Of course, the good result is that he will lend it to himself, but the bad result will always be the majority, maybe he will humiliate himself, what will he let himself give in exchange, if it comes to this point, then what should she do? After thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel more and more sad, she felt that this method was inappropriate, and tried to come up with a better way, maybe she could go and ask Chen Ye to let Chen Ye have a few more days, this method may have a much higher success rate than borrowing money, after all, she had been in contact with Chen Ye a few times, and she found that he was not a bad person. Thinking about it in such a mess, she tossed and turned all night, and when it finally dawned, she turned over and sat up, glanced out the window that the curtains could not cover, got up and got out of bed and dressed.

"I don't know when I'm coming." He thought in a panic, and quickly buttoned the button. When she cleaned up and was about to fetch water to wash her face, Cheng Jiahua's voice came from behind her, "What time is it?" ”

He glanced at the clock and told the time. Cheng Jiahua urged her again and asked her to go to Zheng Xi to borrow money immediately, so as to prepare for Chen Ye's arrival. He Tu was impatient with his urging, and he didn't even wipe the water droplets on his face, so he put on his coat and hurried out.

Bypassing the fence, I saw the warehouse that was about to be built in the distance. At this time, it was still early, the workers had not yet arrived, and the surroundings were quiet, and it seemed that a needle could be heard. As she walked, she felt more and more nervous, her steps became slower and slower, and her heart beat desperately to her throat as if she wanted to escape. When we finally got to the warehouse door, the tall iron door was tightly closed, and there was a small pile of construction debris next to it, indicating that the project was not completely completed. She hesitated in front of the door for a moment, gritted her teeth, mustered up her courage, and raised her hand to knock on the big iron door.

But when people are nervous, their movements seem to be restricted, and the knock on the door is so faint that it is almost unhearable to the ears.

He stomped his foot, bit his lip and turned around and walked back. She regretted it, regretted leaving her pride behind to do such a thing, and she quickened her pace and ran towards her home.

"Hedi?"

A sudden call came from behind him, full of doubt and surprise. After a pause, his footsteps stopped.

That's right, her heart became conflicted again because of this call. Maybe things won't get so bad, as long as she opens up her face and doesn't have this skin on her face, what is she afraid of? She remembered what Cheng Jiahua said last night, she didn't believe that he wouldn't do such a thing, and this sudden memory seemed to glue her feet to the ground.

"Did you just knock on the door?" The voice behind him was getting closer, and in the cold air, it seemed so invasive.

He Tu closed her eyes, took a deep breath, turned around suddenly, opened her mouth, and wanted to say the words that had been arranged, but as soon as she saw Zheng Xi's sincere eyes, her throat became sluggish again, and the words were suddenly choked in her throat, and she couldn't say a word.

"What's wrong?" Zheng Xi looked at her worriedly, tightened the coat on his body, and said, "It's so cold, are you here to find me something?" ”

He shook his head and lowered his head.

"Why don't you go inside and have a cup of tea?" It's so cold, I'm afraid you're freezing. He turned and gestured to a line of makeshift houses next to the warehouse.

He Tu glanced at it quickly, still lowered her head, she had no intention of going into the house to sit down, she wanted to make a quick decision, so she clenched her fists, didn't look at Zheng Xi, and said vaguely: "That Cheng Jiahua came to let me borrow from you and borrow some money." ”

The last three words were so whispered that even she couldn't tell what she was talking about. After saying this, her face became redder and redder, and the shame almost broke through her small body, making her explode immediately.

Zheng Xi looked at her suspiciously, not understanding what she was talking about. Looking at Hedi's awkward look, he frowned tightly and asked, "What did you just say?" ”

He Tu gritted her teeth hard, making a fierce struggle in her heart, suddenly, as if she had broken a jar, she raised her head and said loudly: "Cheng Jiahua asked me to borrow money from you!" After saying this, she let go of her fist in despair, stared at the ground blankly, and a certain part of her heart instantly became empty, and something important disappeared at once.

Zheng Xi was stunned for two seconds, but he reacted immediately, he looked behind Hedi, didn't see Cheng Jiahua's figure, and couldn't help asking, "What about Jiahua?" ”

"At home." He said angrily, twisting his head to the side.

"He borrowed money from me, why didn't he come himself?"

"I don't know, you go ask him." He bit his lip and desperately endured everything in front of him.

Zheng Xi sighed, he probably knew what was going on, it should be that the creditors were pressing too hard, and Cheng Jiahua had no choice, so he asked Hetu to borrow money. But Hetu is usually such an arrogant person, why is he willing to put down his shelf and come to him to borrow money now? Could it be that her family can't support it anymore?

Zheng Xi didn't ask much, he just tightened his coat again and asked, "How much do you need?" ”

He Di didn't expect Zheng Xi to agree so quickly, she glanced at him in surprise, and saw that his expression didn't look like a joke, so she lowered her voice and said a five-digit number.

Zheng Xi was taken aback, it's not that he can't take out so much money, it's just that he lent them so much at once, he didn't guarantee whether Cheng Jiahua could afford it in the future, so he said that now that he helped them like this, what will they do in the future? Could it be that the creditors come to force the debt again, and they still have to borrow money from others? In the final analysis, he is willing to help this favor, but also for the sake of Hetu's face, if it is just for Hetu's good, he is willing to take out this money, but now it is not just to help Hetu, and his heart is not so reluctant.
