Chapter 39
"Mom, the money is coming back."
"Oh, okay, okay, he gave it to me so readily. I was afraid he would refuse to pay."
Zhou Jingchen wanted to shirk his debt, but there was a big guy following him, so he couldn't do it. He slowly went back to the dormitory and took out thirty yuan. Shen Jiabao reached out and used a lot of force to pull the money out of his hand.
Li Caixia only had ten yuan in her personal savings, and now she had thirty yuan in her hand. She felt a little proud. After holding it for a while, she satisfied her desire to handle such a large sum of money and went to Old Lady Shen's room to hand over the money. "Mom, Jiaguo has brought the money back. Please keep it."
Old Mrs. Shen put the money away, looked at the second son's wife with admiration, and took out fifty cents from her other pocket and gave it to her, "Here, this is for you. Buy whatever you need."
"Thank you, Mom." Li Caixia was happier with the fifty cents than with thirty yuan.
Thirty yuan must be handed over, and the fifty cents is your own private money.
Zhang Cuicui looked at the fifty cents in her second brother's wife's hand and began to regret it. If she had also asked Zhou Zhiqing to return the money, she would have had fifty cents too.
The mother-in-law is the head of the family. If the family needs something, they can ask her for money and she will give it to them, but not much. It is difficult for them to save some money privately.
Liu Pandi didn't know how aggrieved she was. Her daughter brought guests back, but her mother-in-law didn't take out the key to cook for her. She even let Li Caixia ask them to pay back the money.
He trampled on her daughter's face without giving her any respect at all. He is so mean.
She was full of resentment, but she didn't dare to complain to her mother-in-law, so she lowered her head and went back to the house.
Li Caixia snorted, "Who are you trying to show me with such a sad face all day long?"
Zhang Cuicui sat next to her mother-in-law and talked to her about Zhou Jingchen, "Mom, this Zhou Zhiqing doesn't seem to be very good. After all, our family saved his life, but he didn't show any gratitude at all. If it weren't for my second sister-in-law asking him to pay back the money, he probably wouldn't even pay it back, and would just say thank you.
He showed up at dinner time. I've never seen anyone like him, especially one from Kyoto, who doesn't know any etiquette."
They saved your life, so you should bring expensive gifts, not to mention the fact that you can't come empty-handed. Not only that, but you came at mealtime, which made it obvious that you were just trying to get a free meal. You just said thank you to them lightly, but there was no sincerity at all.
It’s not that Zhang Cuicui really wants to accept the gift, but Zhou Zhiqing’s behavior makes her very uncomfortable.
Of course, her stupid niece was also stupid. As soon as she saw the other person, she asked him to come for dinner.
Shen Xue, who was called stupid by Zhang Cuicui, was apologizing to Zhou Jingchen repeatedly at the educated youth station.
"Jingchen, I'm sorry. I didn't know my second aunt would be like that. She's just a country woman who doesn't know anything. Please don't bother with her."
"Shen Xue, stop talking. I'm a little tired now. You should go back first."
Zhou Jingchen didn't want to talk to her any more. He was still thinking about the thirty yuan. He was not favored at home. His parents didn't care about him as a son. They didn't give him much money when he went to the countryside.
He only had 60 yuan on him, and he gave away 30 yuan at once, which was more than half of his money. Life in the countryside was so hard, and he couldn't imagine how difficult his future would be.
Of course he knew that the family sent him to the hospital and paid thirty yuan for the hospitalization fee.
When he was discharged from the hospital, the hospital refunded him ten yuan, but he never thought of paying it back.
Since they want to be good people, the Shen family sent him to the hospital, so they should save him to the end. Isn’t it their responsibility to pay for the medical expenses?
I didn't expect this family to be so shameless. When they knew it was him, they directly asked him for money.
If he hadn't gone to the countryside and the team leader was a relative of theirs, Zhou Jingchen would never have paid the money.
"Jingchen, are you blaming me in your heart? I sincerely invited you to my house for dinner,
It's just that my family... some... some are not good at expressing themselves. Actually, they still welcome you. This time I didn't tell my family in advance. Next time you come, my parents will cook a table full of dishes to entertain you."
