Chapter 4: Gambling with yourself
Cheng Keyi's words made Li Liguo, who was already uneasy and kind, overjoyed.
"I disagree!" Su Xiaoting resolutely opposed, who is Li Liguo, everyone knows very well, fighting, collecting protection money, eating and drinking, not doing personnel, his wife was beaten away by him, notorious! Su Xiaobai did this, obviously sacrificing himself.
"Xiaobai, don't be stupid, let's all figure out a way together for money, you can't put yourself in it!" Lu Siyuan disagreed.
"Phew! That's a lot! It's all fucking bullshit! Li Liguo said, "I, Li Liguo, am not an unreasonable person, I know that you orphans and widows, if it were someone else, I would have opened his shop a long time ago!" I also have a bunch of brothers to raise, and I can't just think about myself as a man, right, Xiaobai? ”
Obviously taking advantage of people's danger, but what he said was high-sounding, Cheng Keyi smiled slightly, "Our mother and daughter are grateful for your care, so my proposal ......"
"Xiaobai, you are an understanding person, brother, it is not easy for me! Alas, a month is too long and difficult to do! ”
"Then what do you mean ......"
"Ten days. Within ten days, you can come up with 30,000 yuan, and this matter is over! ”
"Ten days? Isn't that what a strong man does? Su Xiaoting couldn't help but interject.
"Half a month, if it doesn't work, forget it, you can take the store away!" Cheng Keyi said, to be honest, she is not sure at all now, so she can only try to delay it for a few more days and then think of other ways.
Li Liguo wanted to say something, but one of the attendants whispered two sentences, Su Xiaobai was just trying to delay time, and she couldn't escape from the palm of her hand! It's troublesome to push her into a hurry! He grinned and reluctantly said, "Alas! Forget it, who made me soft-hearted! Brother, I'll wait for you for half a month! Brothers, walk! ”
"Okay big brother, when the time comes, we will wait to drink your wedding wine!" A follower patted the ass on the back.
"Hahaha!" Li Liguo took two followers and left.
The house was quiet, Su Xiaobai's idea was to send them away temporarily, but what should I do next? The small shop is barely making ends meet, Su Xiaobai finally graduated from college, Su Xiaoting is still in high school, and the family has no savings at all, in addition to owing Li Liguo this money, he still owes tens of thousands of foreign debts!
"Xiaobai, Mom knows that you are for this family, but in half a month, where are we going to get these 30,000 yuan, if you marry that bastard, I might as well die! Alas, what iniquity you do! It's all my fault that I'm useless, mom I'm sorry for you......" Xiaoting's mother wiped her tears while blaming herself.
"Don't worry, I'll figure it out, and it'll be fine." Cheng Keyi could only appease her first.
"Xiaobai, in that case, I'll discuss with my parents when I go back, and I'll definitely help you make up the money." Lu Siyuan understands Cheng Keyi's intentions, after all, he is an outsider, and he has always relied on his parents, so he can't say anything, but the matter has come to this point, and if it drags on for half a month, there will still be a chance.
"Thank you, Brother Siyuan!" Su Xiaoting took the lead.
"Well, don't be polite to me. Auntie, no, you can cook first, don't worry! I'll come back tomorrow to make up for Xiaoting. ”
Xiaoting's mother didn't force Lu Siyuan, after all, everyone's hearts were in turmoil, she simply made a few dishes, and the three of them had their own hearts, and they didn't eat a few bites.
After dinner, Xiaoting went to do her homework, Xiaoting's mother chattered and told Cheng Keyi a bunch of past things, and she was sad for a long time, Cheng Keyi persuaded her again and again, and then she went to rest.
When Su Xiaobai's father Su Mingwen was alive, he was a poor middle school teacher, Su Xiaobai's mother Shen Yafen was also a primary school teacher, and later resigned, set up a stall on Gulou Street, selling tofu brain oil cakes, one is to facilitate the care of two daughters, and the other is to subsidize the family, although it is not as decent as the glorious people's teacher, but he earns a lot more than the teacher, and his life is okay and he can get by. I can't even afford a decent building, and I have to let my wife get up early and work hard day and night, and I feel very uncomfortable, thinking about renting a store for my wife, at least a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
But firstly, he had no savings, and secondly, there were no relatives and friends who could borrow money, and just when he was at a loss, Li Liguo, who often came to eat tofu brain, offered to lend him money to rent a storefront.
This Li Liguo was originally a gangster on Gulou Street, but later he had been in the road for a long time, recognized a big brother, gave him a few storefronts for him to show the scene, and made some money as soon as he came and went, and also put up a loan shark.
Originally, Su Mingwen only borrowed 20,000 yuan from him, but now it has become 30,000 yuan with interest.
Cheng Keyi thought that in the previous life, she was weak and incompetent, and she was an orphan girl who was rejected by everyone, and in this life, she must not live like that again.
It was only when she washed up at night that she saw what she looked like.
Compared with the ugliness of Cheng Keyi in the previous life, Su Xiaobai in this life can be regarded as a flower and a moon, no wonder Li Liguo thinks about her.
Skin, for women, is just an appearance, but on the contrary, this superficial skin has become a woman's biggest capital! Cheng Keyi smiled, from today on, she is Su Xiaobai.
