Chapter 74: Worrying about money
When Lu Xiaole heard that it was Li Shuying crying, he understood.
Li Shuying was abused by her husband Song Lao Er in her early years, and she no longer has a relationship between husband and wife, and she only lives together for the sake of her children.
Later, Li Shuying cheated on Lu Songyang, and Song Lao Er was paralyzed and couldn't do without Li Shuying's care, so he didn't dare to divorce her, but he sneered at her and spoke ill of her, without a good word.
Between the husband and wife, there is no husband and wife affection.
The reason why Li Shuying doesn't cry at home and doesn't cry in front of Song Lao Er is that she is so strong and her self-esteem does not allow her to cry in front of Song Lao Er; Second, her crying will not only not arouse Song Laoer's sympathy, but will attract his cynicism.
Therefore, Li Shuying went to the corn field to cry, and cried out and vented her crying, suffering, and grievances that no one could confide in.
Lu Xiaole listened to Li Shuying's cry, and felt that his heart seemed to be tightly gripped, and he was very sympathetic to Li Shuying's experience, but he felt that he was powerless and could not help Li Shuying.
He couldn't comfort Li Shuying, and he didn't have any money to lend to Li Shuying.
And he was worried that if he really lent money to Li Shuying and his mother found out, his mother didn't know how he would clean him up. Scolding him is a trivial matter, but I am afraid that his mother will be sad, but his own son is helping her "rival in love".
Lu Xiaole couldn't bear to listen to Li Shuying's grief anymore, and was about to turn around and leave quietly.
However, he stood on the ridge for a while, and the soil under his feet was already soft, and as soon as he turned around, he pressed his feet, and the soft soil was trampled down.
He was unsteady on his feet, his body shook, and he involuntarily reached out and grabbed a corn stalk, trying to stabilize his body and not fall.
Although he didn't fall, the corn stalks made a rattling sound, which alarmed Li Shuying, who was crying.
Li Shuying immediately stopped crying and asked vigilantly:
"Who? Who is where? ”
Lu Xiaole had no choice but to say: "Second aunt, it's me, Xiaole." ”
There was silence in the cornfield, and after a while, Li Shuying's voice came.
"It's Xiaole. Why are you here? ”
"I came home from the orchard and took a shortcut."
Li Shuying got out of the cornfield and walked in front of Lu Xiaole.
At this time, Li Shuying, although her clothes were still neat and her hair was still neatly combed, her face was haggard, her eyes were red and swollen, and although she wiped her tears, she could still see that she had just cried.
Li Shuying looked at Lu Xiaole and barely put on a smile:
"Did you hear my aunt crying just now?"
Lu Xiaole nodded: "I heard, second aunt, are you worried about Brother Fu's medical expenses?" ”
Li Shuying sighed: "Yes, more than two thousand yuan, where to get it?" ”
Lu Xiaole: "What about borrowing from a neighbor?" ”
Li Shuying: "In the past, I borrowed everything I could, but now I still owe two or three thousand foreign debts. Borrow again, I don't know who to open my mouth to. ”
Lu Xiaole: "What about Uncle Song?" Brother Fu is his own nephew, he can't ignore it, right? ”
The old Uncle Song that Lu Xiaole said is Li Shuying's eldest brother, and Song Boss, the eldest brother of Song Lao's second brother.
Although Boss Song complained in his heart that his younger brother-in-law and Lu Songyang were on good terms, he also knew that his younger brother-in-law took care of his younger brother and his nephew, and it was not easy, so although he was a little cold to Li Shuying, he would not be indifferent, and he would also help when he was busy with farming.
Li Shuying sighed: "His uncle doesn't care, Laiqiang just got engaged, and the family's money has been paid as a bride price, and there is no money." ”
Lai Qiang is the son of Boss Song, two or three years older than Lu Xiaole, and has just gotten engaged.
Lu Xiaole also sighed: "Second aunt, can't you help your mother's side?" ”
Li Shuying was even more sad: "A few years ago, my father was seriously ill, spent a lot of money, borrowed a lot of money, and now he is too busy to take care of himself, how can he lend me money." ”
Lu Xiaole: "Second aunt, I heard that you have a younger sister who is a teacher, and the teacher's salary is high, and she has money every month, can she help you?" ”
Li Shuying shook her head: "Shuyu is indeed a teacher and has a salary. But half of her college expenses were borrowed and half borrowed. Although she has been working for three years, almost all of the wages she earns have been repaid for her loans, and she still owes a lot of money to her relatives. I can't bear to bother her!"
Lu Xiaole looked at Li Shuying's sad face, felt a burst of excitement in his heart, and said:
"Second aunt, I have 300 yuan in my hand, I'll lend it to you."
Lu Xiaole has been working for more than three months, and his salary is one hundred and five hundred a month, and after three months, he has four or five hundred, but he sometimes needs to spend money to open a house, so what he saved is only three hundred yuan.
He didn't hand over the 300 yuan to his grandfather, just for his own convenience and to open a house.
Grandpa didn't force him to hand it over, although the family was not rich, he didn't miss his little money.
The three hundred dollars, he can use freely.
Li Shuying was stunned for a moment, and then showed a sincere smile:
"Xiaole, you are such a good boy, thank you. But I can't ask for your money!"
Lu Xiaole: "Why, are you too little?" ”
Li Shuying smiled: "Of course it's not too little. Silly boy, it's not like you don't know about me and your father, you lent me money, if your mother knew, she would be sad. ”
Lu Xiaole: "If I don't say it, my mother won't know." ”
Li Shuying shook her head: "That's not okay either." Auntie is already sorry for your family and can't spend your family's money anymore. Okay, it's not early, and my aunt is going home. ”
After Li Shuying finished speaking, she went into the cornfield again and went home from the other side.
Lu Xiaole wanted to say something more, but when he saw Li Shuying getting into the cornfield, he couldn't chase it anymore, otherwise, if it was seen by the good deeds and spread out, saying that he and Li Shuying drilled the cornfield, and they both got along with Li Shuying, it would be too ugly.
Lu Xiaole walked out of the cornfield and saw Li Shuying coming out of another cornfield.
Li Shuying was immersed in her own thoughts, lowered her head, and didn't see Lu Xiaole.
Lu Xiaole didn't say hello to Li Shuying, he waited a little and let Li Shuying go first, and he followed not far behind.
The two walked towards the village.
Just as he was about to walk to a small forest in front of the village, a car drove up and stopped beside Li Shuying.
Lu Xiaole recognized that the car belonged to the village chief Li Jitang.
After Li Jitang stopped the car, he rolled down the window, said a few words to Li Shuying, and then drove the car and continued to drive forward.
Lu Xiaole didn't care about it, but suddenly found that the road Li Shuying was taking was not the way home, but followed behind Li Jitang's car and walked towards the grove.
Lu Xiaole was shocked:
"Could it be that Li Shuying and Li Jitang are getting along? Or, in order to raise her son's medical expenses, she did not hesitate to get along with Li Jitang? ”
