Chapter 140 Came to Borrow Money

After coming out of Mufang, Jiang Zhu took Ye Anyian to see the guests.

  "Not going back to the shop?" Ye Anyian was a little surprised.

  "Your second sister and the others are hosting today. They say there is a happy event."

  Thinking that Ye Xiaomei had mentioned before that the couple planned to open a restaurant by themselves, Ye Anyian thought that this matter might have been settled.

  When the two of them arrived, Ye Xiaomei was already waiting at the door and greeted them enthusiastically.

  "Brother Nian, you two are here. The dishes are all here and waiting for you."

  "I went to Mufang and asked my second sister to wait for a long time." Ye Annian said.

  Ye Xiaomei patted him on the shoulder, glanced at Jiang Zhu again, and sighed sincerely: "You two are getting better and better now. You have this shop, and you have hired carpenters. You are now a big boss."

  "Every year we strive for success." Jiang Zhu smiled.

  Ye Anian got goosebumps when he called him that name. Even if he shouted in private, why did he shout in front of Ye Xiaomei?

  The tips of his ears felt hot, he rolled his eyes at Jiang Zhu and whispered, "What are you shouting about?"

  Piansheng Jiang Zhu replied to him seriously: "I didn't shout randomly. I don't shout at others."

  Ye Anyian:...

  Ye Xiaomei looked at the two people flirting, covering her mouth, laughing so hard that her eyes were gone, and said quickly: "Let's go in first, the food will be cold in a while."

  The three of them then went straight to a private room on the second floor.

  This private room is not big, but it is very clean and tidy, making people feel very comfortable.

  There are several dishes on the table, such as stir-fried mutton, braised pig's feet, stir-fried river shrimp, crucian carp and tofu soup, there are many kinds of dishes, and they are all hard vegetables and meat dishes.

  Ye Anyian: "There's so much, the four of us can't finish it."

  "If you can't finish eating, pack it up and take it back." Ye Xiaomei smiled and pulled the two of them to sit down.

  Not long after, Wei Feng came in with a plate of Sixi meatballs. He put the dishes on the table, smiled at a few people, went out to change clothes, and then came back and sat down again.

  "There are also two vegetarian stir-fries. I asked the kitchen staff to make them. They will be ready later."

  "Brother Wei spent money." Jiang Zhu picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured Wei Feng a glass, and then went to pour it for Ye Anyian and Ye Xiaomei.

  The wine is warm plum wine, and it's not intoxicating after a sip.

  Before Ye Xiaomei said anything, Wei Feng brought the wine glass in front of her to him: "I'll drink for her."

  Jiang Zhu's hand holding the wine bottle paused as he said this without any beginning or end.

  "You." Ye Xiaomei scolded Wei Feng with a bit of embarrassment.

  Then he said to Jiang Zhu, "Brother, don't be offended. I am pregnant and cannot drink."

  "No way, this is a very happy event." Jiang Zhu naturally didn't care and raised his glass of wine to congratulate, "Congratulations."

"Second sister, congratulations." Ye Anyian also picked up the wine glass, with a smile on his eyes and brows.

  He silently looked at Ye Xiaomei, and he did feel that she was a little rounder than the last time he saw her. Her face was red and fair, and her complexion was very good, which also showed that she was living a comfortable life now.

  "Haha," Ye Xiaomei smiled, picked up the tea at hand, and replaced the wine with tea, "There is also something about our shop."

  "It's not far from your shop. West Street is on the opposite street." Wei Feng raised his wine glass.

  "It will be much easier to move around in the future." Ye Xiaomei continued, "Your wood workshop started construction a few days ago, and we didn't send any congratulatory gifts, so we just celebrated together."

  Ye Anyian curled his lips: "My family doesn't pay attention to these things."

  --Ding!

  The four of them clinked cups and cups to celebrate the happy event together.

  The dishes on this large table were cooked by Wei Feng himself, so there was no choice in taste, and all four of them were very satisfied.

  After three rounds of drinking, Wei Feng took Jiang Zhu to talk about some experiences of opening a shop and cooking. Ye Anian told Ye Xiaomei about the gossip of the old Ye family in recent days.

  Speaking of Zhang Juan's childbirth, Ye Xiaomei's face showed a trace of sadness.

  Zhang Juan is her biological mother, and the baby she gave birth to is her biological brother. Logically, she should go back and take a look, but she really didn't want to step into that door that disgusted her again.

  Seeing the smile on her face fade, Ye Anyian guessed what she was worried about.

  After thinking for a while, he said: "Actually, you don't have to go back. Just buy some pastries, candies, etc., and I will take them back for you."

  The main reason is that Ye Xiaomei is pregnant now. Although she doesn't show her pregnancy yet, she must be tired from running back and forth.

  Moreover, with the current miserable situation of the old Ye family, Ye Annian is very worried that when Ye Xiaomei and the others go back, Wu Xianglian will return to her old ways and suck the blood of the young couple again.

  I won't say anything about it if I go back and I'm afraid I'll have to quarrel and get into trouble.

  "That's fine." Ye Xiaomei didn't show any pretense and agreed directly, "Then please run a trip for us."

  Ye Annian smiled: "Second sister, why are you so polite to me?"

  Just as they were chatting happily, a man dressed as a waiter knocked on the door and walked in.

  The knock on the door drew the attention of all four people.

  "Brother Wei," the guy called Wei Feng, "there's someone outside who says he's here to see you and Sister-in-law Xiaomei."

  "Who is he?" Ye Xiaomei asked.

  "She's a woman in her thirties. She says she's your sister-in-law's aunt."

  Sun Caihe?

  Ye Anian and Ye Xiaomei looked at each other in surprise. Why did Sun Caihe come to Ye Xiaomei?

But people were waiting below, and it was difficult to send them away directly. Ye Xiaomei asked the waiter to serve two more dishes of small desserts, fruits, etc., and asked Ye Anian and Jiang Zhu to eat first, then went downstairs with Wei Feng. .

The two waited for a long time, but the young couple did not come back.

  Just when he was hesitating whether to go out and take a look, he heard a commotion outside. Ye Annian stood up from his seat and opened the door, bumping into Ye Xiaomei and Wei Feng.

  "Second sister, are you okay?"

  Ye Xiaomei's face turned a little pale, and Ye Anyian asked worriedly.

  "It's okay." Ye Xiaomei shook her head and sat back in her seat.

  "What happened?" Jiang Zhu also asked.

  "I'm here to borrow money." Wei Feng replied concisely.

  Ye Xiaomei started chatting: "She said she owed Aunt Tianhua five taels of silver, and she couldn't get it together, so she came to beg us. I asked her why she owed it, but she hesitated and refused to tell me."

  "Later, Brother Wei gave her a beating, and she was willing to tell the truth. She said that she had borrowed it from the Tian family when Ye Ansong was studying in the academy. There have been a lot of things at home recently, and she owed a lot of money, and she really couldn't afford it. "

  Neither Ye Anyian nor Jiang Zhu believed Sun Caihe's words.

  I borrowed something from a school. I'm afraid Aunt Tianhua found out about Ji Fangfang's pregnancy and made a fuss.

  But this is not important. Ye Anian quickly asked Ye Xiaomei: "Then you didn't borrow it, right?"

  "No." Ye Xiaomei replied simply, "I don't want to have anything to do with them anymore."

  Hearing what she said, Ye Annian breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay if you don't borrow money. As long as you are from the old Ye family, no one can borrow money."

  "Yes." Ye Xiaomei nodded vigorously, "Brother Nian, don't worry, I know everything."

  Before leaving, Wei Feng gave Ye Anyian a few kilograms of pastries, a roast chicken and two kilograms of sugar that he had bought.

  As soon as the guests came out, the two went their separate ways. Ye Anyian went back to Mufang, and Jiang Zhu went back to his stall.

  Sun Caihe, who was sent away by Ye Xiaomei and Wei Feng, walked on the street with a confused look on her face. She looked at the people coming and going around her and felt a little dazed for a moment.

  Because of Ye Ansong's incident, she had not repaid the money she borrowed from her parents' family. Now Ye Xiaomei has hit a wall again. She really doesn't know what else to do.

  Five taels of silver. Tianshui Town is so big. Where can she get five taels of silver?

  Just as he was worried, his shoulder was suddenly hit hard.

  Sun Caihe staggered and looked up to see the person who bumped into her. He was a middle-aged man in slovenly clothes. He was holding a money bag in his hand and was mumbling something with joy.

  "Such a lot of money should be enough for me to gamble a few times, right? I must make a comeback today!"

Sun Caihe was shocked when she heard that. She looked in the direction where the man came from and saw the shop behind him. There were four big characters on the plaque: Zhou*.

  She only knew one person, so she grabbed a young man passing by and asked, it was Zhou Ji Pawnshop.

  When he heard the name of the store, Sun Caihe was stunned for a long time. After all, Ye Chenghe was still lying on the bed.

  But she had no other choice. There was only one pawnshop in Tianshui Town.

  She gritted her teeth and walked in anyway.

  …

  In the afternoon, Ye Annian led the carpenters to perform the dismantling steps of the Rubik's Cube several times. Seeing that they were almost done with it, he asked them to try it themselves by referring to each small part.

  In the evening, when several carpenters who lived in the town packed their things and went home, Ye Anian followed them.

  After returning to the shop, Yu Hu showed him the account books and the sales situation of the past few days. He also said that Mr. Wen had brought several orders in the past few days and placed them directly in the shop. He was afraid of giving them in person. Ye Annian Will not answer.

  Ye Anyian:...

  It seems that he needs to teach those carpenters quickly, otherwise the list will pile up.

  After explaining the matter to Yu Hu, Ye Annian drove away with the bullock cart and went to pick up Jiang Zhu at the stall, and the two of them went back to the village together.

  When I was almost home, I found that the fence gate of the yard was open and there were a few figures crowded at the door.

  Ye Annian was startled at first glance. When the bullock cart approached, he realized that the figures at the door turned out to be Fu Zai, Ding Qiu, and Wu Xianglian, who was blocked by them.

  Hearing the sound of the bullock cart, Copper Coin seemed to have support and barked "woof, woof".

  Wu Xianglian took several steps back in shock. When she saw the bullock cart stopped in front of the door, she quickly stepped forward.

  "You two are back. Tell me about these two children, who blocked the door and wouldn't let me in."

  Ye Anyian ignored her: "Is something wrong?"

  "I'm bringing the medical fee to Dr. Jiang." Wu Xianglian smiled and handed over the small bag wrapped in a handkerchief.

  Jiang Zhu took it and weighed it, feeling that it was not heavy enough. When he opened it, he saw that it only had six taels of silver.

  "Well, we really don't have much money at home..." Wu Xianglian forced a smile and handed the basket in her hand, "I have collected some eggs at home, you can take them and eat them."

  Ye Anyian:...

  She is quite opportunistic.

  After taking a look at Jiang Zhu, seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Ye Anyian put the eggs away.

He knew the current situation of Lao Ye's family, and it was not easy for Wu Xianglian to take the initiative to come up with six taels of silver.

  "What about that, Doctor Jiang, can you go over to the house to have a look when you have time?" Seeing that neither of them said anything, Wu Xianglian spoke quietly.

  Jiang Zhu handed the money to Ye Anyian's hand and said, "Is the second uncle doing well?"

  "No, it's a child." Wu Xianglian looked worried.

  "An Hong has been feeling quite peaceful these past two days. He cried twice the night he was born. After that, whether he had to urinate or was thirsty or hungry, he didn't say a word."

Sometimes it's really hard to retrieve the lenses money when the other party is pitiful and can't pay off the debt. Then what will you do in that situation. Let me know in the comment
