The dinner, which was not very appetizing in the first place, was even more tasteless now.
Xu Aiguo sighed and looked like he was about to go out with his hands behind his back.
"Where are you going!" Xu's mother asked.
"Find someone to borrow money!"
"Who are you borrowing from? Who can afford such a large sum of money?" Xu's mother disagreed. "And if word spreads, will our family still have any dignity? The second brother has not even married a daughter-in-law, so he already owes it." If a huge debt reaches the ears of the in-laws, what will they think? Will Xiaowu marry a wife in the future? "
Xu Aiguo sighed deeply: "Then what do you think we should do? The third child is not willing to marry so early, so we can't force her."
"This..." Xu's mother looked at Xu Yin, "Fourth child, how about..."
"I'm here to find a solution for the family." Xu Yin interrupted her unspoken meaning, "How much does it cost for my second brother to get married? I'll borrow it, and I won't have to pay it back at home. I'll pay it back. But I have a condition. In the future, I It’s up to me to decide whether or not to marry, what kind of person to marry, whether to accept a bride price, and how much to receive as a bride price!”
"..."
Xu Yao heard this in the back room and rushed out: "You borrow it? Where can you borrow it? Is there anyone willing to lend it to you? Stop joking! If the whole factory knows about it, will I still have face?"
"Then you want me and the fourth child to get married? Use the man's bride price to give you a wife? You are really calculating! The whole family has to revolve around you, right?" Xu Fang jumped up and pointed at his nose He yelled, "Selling your sister to marry a wife is really promising! Wouldn't you feel ashamed?"
Xu Yao was speechless.
Xu Yin twitched the corner of her mouth. According to her, apart from the married eldest son, the third child in the family is the best at planning. Listen, when you quarrel, you don't forget to find an ally.
However, Xu Fang's words are indeed true despite her own little calculations.
"Father, mother, the third sister is right. At this juncture, if there is news that I or the third sister are engaged and the man has made a betrothal, but you turn around and give the betrothal gift and betrothal gift to the second brother for his marriage, it will not look good if the news spreads. . It’s like selling your sister. In the final analysis, it’s all about money. I said I’ll find a way, but from now on, I will make my own decisions about my marriage.”
"The best thing you can think of is the best way." Xu's mother relaxed, "Originally, I wanted to do things for the second child first, then the third child, and then you, but it means I can't raise money. The savings at home will be given to your father. It cost a lot to buy the tomb and organize the funeral. If you take it all out, including your eldest sister's contribution, it's only about a hundred yuan. If only the other party hadn't mentioned thirty-six legs..."
"How much is the difference?" Xu Yin asked.
Xu's mother thought about it and said, "It's best to borrow one hundred or one hundred and twenty. If that doesn't work, eighty will do."
"Okay." Xu Yin nodded, "I'll go back to the work early tomorrow morning to raise money, and I'll send it to my family when I'm off next week."
In fact, Xu Yin didn't go back to her work unit to raise money.
The colleagues at the farm were either old and young, or singles about the same age as Xu Yao.
The former is under a lot of pressure to support the family, while the latter may be arranged by his family to get married one day, so he doesn't feel at ease even if he borrows their money.
Xu Yin thought about going to the city to see if it would be convenient to stock up on the system warehouse.
If that doesn't work, you can secretly sell a pair of gold earrings, silver bracelets, etc.
If this doesn't work, go back to your work unit and talk to the farm manager to discuss whether you can advance your salary for the next six months or even a year.
After all, the money should be allocated to the family first.
Giving her 100 yuan in exchange for the control over major events in her life was a deal that seemed to her to be a good deal.
Xu Yin stayed at home for one night and went out after taking a few mouthfuls of porridge the next morning.
"Fourth." Xu Aiguo called to his youngest daughter, pursed his lips and sighed, "Just do your best, but if you can't borrow it, dad will find a way.
"Don't worry, Dad, I can always borrow some. You can wait for my news at home."
As soon as Xu Yin left the courtyard, Xu's mother caught up to her and stopped her: "Fourth brother, are you going back to the breeding farm to borrow money from your colleagues? When you borrow it, don't mention it is for your second brother's wife."
Xu's mother was worried that if the outside world found out that her family was borrowing money to find a wife for her son, she would be embarrassed on the one hand, and on the other hand, she had three children. How could she arrange marriages for them then? No one wants to marry a family whose son is so poor that he will be starved and in debt.
Xu Yin sighed silently and responded: "I know."
Xu Rong watched Xu Yin walk out of the courtyard with eager eyes, then returned to the room and asked Xu Fang: "Third sister, do you feel that fourth sister has become different from before?"
"What's the difference? You're still so arrogant!" Xu Fang snorted angrily, "If I really want to talk about changes, the only thing I can say is that my mouth is not as bad as before, and some of the words she speaks are like human words."
After a pause, she brainwashed her little brother: "Don't think that she is good just because she promised to help the family borrow money. In the final analysis, she did it not for herself. Her parents will not be able to decide her future marriage. When the groom's family gave her a bride price, she said she didn't give it and secretly gave it to her. Her parents couldn't do anything to her."
Xu Rong blinked: "Third sister, you didn't help the family borrow money, what if your parents can't do anything to you?"
"..."
Xu Yin looked at the stop sign at the tram stop near her home for a while, wondering where to find the black market!
In the small world of the 1970s, she once went to the black market with Grandpa Xu, but that was said to be a black market, but it was actually the home of a family who worked at a grain station and had the opportunity to buy a large amount of white market grain at low prices and resell it. They are resold at high prices to people who have no tickets and are in urgent need of food.
But there is no one to guide us here, so where can we find the black market?
At this time, the tram arrived.
Decided to get in the car first.
Riding at one stop after another, I found that there were particularly many people getting off at the platform that intersected with the No. 9 bus.
She reversed the car here last night as well.
After thinking for a while, Xu Yin followed the crowd and got out of the car.
I looked up at the stop sign and was wondering whether to walk around or wait for the No. 9 bus.
There was a sound of braking in my ears.
She turned around and looked...
"Why are you here?"
Sheng Yujin tiptoed to the ground, holding on to the handle of the car, looking at her against the light.
Her heart moved slightly.
When it comes to who is most worthy of her trust in the mission world, Comrade Xiaojin ranks second, and no one dares to compete with him for first place.
"Can I ask you something?" She approached him and asked in a low voice, "Do you know where the black market is?"
"..."
Sheng Yujin held her breath without leaving a trace, but the elegant body fragrance from her approach was still lingering in her nose. She was stunned for a few seconds before she regained consciousness. She coughed lightly, looked away and said:
"Why are you looking for that place? That's not a place you can go."
Xu Yin looked at him speechlessly: You know nothing about my sister's strength.
"What do you want to buy?" Sheng Yujin folded her long legs, got off the bicycle, and pushed the car with her.
Xu Yin shook her head: "I'm not buying, I'm selling."
"What to sell?"
"..."
What to sell?
How does she know now? She has to look at what is lacking in the black market before deciding what to sell.
Sheng Yujin glanced at her: "You're a lesbian, so don't go to the black market. Tomorrow I'll drive out to the neighboring market. If you can trust me, give me the things and I'll help you get out."
"..."
Xu Yin glanced at him suspiciously: "Do you often do this kind of thing?"
Sheng Yujin looked helpless: "Do you believe it when I say it's the first time?"
