"yes." Liu Man'er sighed, and looked at Ye Qing with a hint of inquiry.

Could it be that the loan sharks in this county are not the same? Why is this person willing to lend to himself, but that person is not willing to lend to Ye Qing? Seeing the way he dodged his gaze, Liu Man'er knew that he was lying.

Seeing Liu Man'er looking at him, Ye Qing coughed and pretended to be nothing, but in his mind, he was thinking about everything in the restaurant.

Today, as soon as he said that he wanted to borrow a loan shark, he said that he would use Ye Kee's snack shop as a guarantee to borrow a thousand taels, but he didn't expect that person to agree very quickly. He said that he could lend him the money as long as the shop was his, as long as he told him where the family lived.

If it was yesterday, he would definitely agree, but when he went out today, he met Tao Cuiya and Tao Shopkeeper who came to look for him.

Although he was a little selfish, he couldn't bear to deceive Tao Cuiya, and told Tao Cuiya and Tao Shopkeeper about it as it was, and Tao Cuiya scolded him at that time, and Tao Cuiya also cried and persuaded him not to be too stupid.

The shopkeeper Tao said that if he borrowed the money, the money would fall on him at that time, and if he couldn't pay back the money at that time, that person would not only find trouble with the Ye family, but also trouble with the Tao family.

But if Ye Liu's borrowed it, it would be different, after she borrowed it, when he would make it again, the money would have nothing to do with him at that time, no matter how much this loan shark wanted it, it would not be able to account to a wealthy person, even if they dared to ask for it, the Tao shopkeeper would not be afraid of them.

But what he didn't expect was that this Ye Liu's family was also smart, and she could borrow money, but she actually said that she couldn't borrow it, which made Ye Qing's heart a little annoyed, could it be that his mother's life was so worthless?

In vain, she keeps saying that the left sentence is a mother's kiss and the right sentence is a mother's sweetness, but she didn't expect that it would be this kind of person behind her back! In vain, she categorically said that she wanted to borrow usury, but after pulling herself into the water, she said that she couldn't borrow it, and it was really a guy who was different from the outside, hum!

Ye Qing was already secretly scolding Liu Man'er in her heart at the moment, but she didn't know that he was living the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, Liu Man'er didn't think about it so much at all, she just didn't want to borrow from these people in the county, she felt that it was better to borrow from acquaintances, at least they wouldn't always come to harass her.

If you are looking for a loan shark in the county, come to your hometown every once in a while to see if you are at home or if you have sneaked away, which is also annoying, not only that, but also makes the villagers think that you have provoked someone.

After all, the landlord Wang can be said to know the Ye family, he knows the Ye family's temperament, even if she goes to the county town by then, he shouldn't ask more.

She didn't like to be disturbed by borrowing money, so she preferred to go back to the countryside to borrow from the landlord.

Even if he can't pay back the money by then, he shouldn't have done so much. Oh no, she won't be able to pay it back? She'll definitely return it when the time comes!

When the two returned home, the Fang family was still lying on the bed today, and when they saw Liu Man'er and the two coming in, they asked, "Where did you two go today, why did you come back so late?" ”

"We went to the county town today and visited Steward Wu, but Steward Wu was too enthusiastic and insisted on inviting the two of us to dinner, which made you worry about your mother." Liu Man'er explained seriously.

This made Ye Qing on the side disdain Liu Man'er again, this woman is simply disgusting, the lie is so slippery, I have to guard against her in the future, sure enough, what the shopkeeper Tao said is right, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs.

Liu Man'er didn't expect that because of her white lie, Ye Qing would have such a big misunderstanding, but even if she didn't know what he was thinking, looking at his eyes, she understood that he didn't like her.

Of course, she doesn't care, after all, no matter how much she explains, what's the use, anyone with a discerning eye knows that she has no malicious intent, he must think about that dark side, she can't help it.

"By the way, mother, I have to go back to my hometown tomorrow, you are here for the time being, I will let Yun Niang and Xiaohe take care of you." Liu Man'er said again.

"What are you doing back to your hometown?" Fang asked.

"It's nothing, just look at the out-of-season vegetables I planted, didn't I grow them well last year, and I can sell them for money this year." Liu Man'er said with a grin.

"So that's the case, okay, you let Qing'er accompany you, you are now a double person, you can't be as reckless as before." Fang said kindly.

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently stroked Liu Man'er's belly, Liu Man'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, the second brother promised to drive the horse for me today." ”

"That's good." When Fang heard Liu Man'er say this, her smile deepened, she was most afraid that there would be a gap in the hearts of the two uncles and sisters-in-law, and she was also very happy to see them go away.

"Then you are good in the county, if you want to eat, let Yun Niang buy it for you, I put the money in Yun Niang." Liu Man'er arranged it very thoughtfully.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about me." Fang shook his head and said, "It's not too early, you should rest early." ”

"Well, then I'll go first." Liu Man'er put Fang's hand into the quilt, and then left, as for Ye Qing, he was still serving Fang's illness.

Although he was a little persecuted by Liu Man'er, the Fang clan didn't know, at this moment, the Fang clan was still very happy that her son could be so filial, and he drove Ye Qing back to his room to rest all night, but Ye Qing was also stubborn, he just didn't go, he insisted on guarding the Fang clan.

The Fang clan was disgusted in his mouth, but he was very happy in his heart, but who knew that Ye Qing did this, most of them because of guilt?

The next day, Ye Qing drove Liu Man'er back to the county seat with the horse, this time he didn't deliberately drive the carriage very bumpy, he maintained a constant speed all the way, and Liu Man'er even took a nap in the car for a while.

Back home, Ye Feng and Ye Tianchen were both very happy, even Shuai Shuai jumped up and down.

After Liu Man'er rested for a while, Ye Feng couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with my mother's illness?" ”

"My mother's condition is fine, the doctor said, as long as you keep your mood comfortable." Liu Man'er replied lightly.

"That's good." A big smile appeared on Ye Feng's face, and he said, "Then why didn't she come back with you?" ”

"The patient should not be bumpy, I let her live in the county seat temporarily, there are Xiaohe and Yun Niang there to take care of her, you don't have to worry." Liu Man'er knew Ye Feng's worries, and patiently answered his question.

Not long after, after Ye Feng left, she called Han Shixin and whispered: "Uncle Han, please go to the landlord Wang's house in the next village, ask him to come over, and say that I want to borrow some money from him." ”

"Borrow money?" Han Shixin was also a little surprised, but then he realized his gaffe and calmed down: "I know, I'll go and ask for it immediately." ”

"I'm sorry for you." As soon as Liu Man'er raised her hand, Han Shixin went out.

"Sister, you have worked hard all the way home, you must be hungry, it's not yet noon, I made a writing cake, can you taste it?" Cao'er came in through the back door, saw Liu Man'er's tired look, and carefully put a plate of pot stickers in front of Liu Man'er.

"You did it?" Liu Man'er put on a smiling face, touched her head, and said, "It's really good, this has become a little cook, and I can help my sister work in the future." ”

Hearing Liu Man'er's praise, Cao'er lowered her head shyly and said in a low voice, "You taste it." ”

Liu Man'er was really a little hungry, picked one up and stuffed it into her mouth, and said contentedly: "Well, it's really delicious, your cooking skills are much better than your sister and mine." ”

The things she made were appreciated, and Cao'er was also happy, so she simply sat down next to Liu Man'er, and poured tea for Liu Man'er: "If it's delicious, you can eat more." ”

"You eat too." Liu Man'er handed the plate to Cao'er, who shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry, sister, you eat." ”

Liu Man'er ate a piece of cake, and saw that Cao'er was still sitting next to her, so she said: "Go and go about your own business, see what you have to do, and when there are guests at noon, you can give Aunt Han a hand, and learn two more dishes." ”

"Okay." Hearing Liu Man'er's words, Cao'er went to the kitchen as soon as she slipped away, and after a while, Aunt Han's voice came from the kitchen: "Miss Cao'er, why are you here?" I'm so busy that I don't need to help. ”

"My sister told me to come and help you." Cao'er said briskly.

Liu Man'er sat alone in the hall for a while, the weather in October was already very cold, the door was open, and the wind blew it, and the whole person was a lot more sober.

She hurriedly poured another cup of hot tea, moved to a warm corner, and silently waited for the arrival of the landlord.

Although the waiting days were a little difficult, they didn't wait too long, and when it was almost time to eat, the landlord Wang was finally late, in addition to him, there was also Wang Zi'an.

I haven't seen him for a long time, Liu Man'er is still a little happy to see him, he looks nothing different from his father Wang Landlord, he is thin and tall, and his appearance is delicate, while Wang Landlord is a typical landlord look, fat head and big ears.

Seeing Liu Man'er, Wang Zi'an winked at her, and Liu Man'er smiled and invited the two of them to sit down.

After drinking a cup of hot tea and eating some melons and fruits, Liu Man'er said: "I invite you to come today, I guess you already know, right?" ”

"Yes, yes." Landlord Wang said with a smile: "Isn't it just to borrow some money, Mrs. Ye is right to find me." ”

The so-called no business and no treachery, Liu Man'er did not feel sincere from his smile, but had a feeling that he was a fat sheep.

Therefore, she didn't say much, she still got straight to the point, and said bluntly: "I want to borrow a thousand taels of silver from you, I don't know how you collect this interest?" ”

"It's all folks, what kind of interest." Landlord Wang waved his hand, Liu Man'er was about to interject, and Landlord Wang said: "But if I lend it to Mrs. Ye like this, Mrs. Ye must feel that she owes me a favor, I know that Mrs. Ye is also a businessman, so we will follow the rules of the road, and we will not let Mrs. Ye suffer, just like others." ”
