There were three siblings in Old Xue's family. She was the eldest, Xue Guiqin was the second, and Xue Guibao was the third. The second son, Xue Guiqin, rarely came back ever since she married an oil worker. She didn't even come back for Zhou Jin's wedding. Xue Guixiang only received ten yuan and a letter from her a few days ago.
The letter said that she had just moved to a new house and did not have much money on hand. This ten yuan was a gift for Zhou Jin's wife and she asked her sister to accept it.
What else could Xue Guixiang say? Back then, she had asked the girl because she was too poor. She had borrowed 100 yuan, but she had only received 10 yuan.
Fortunately, her daughter-in-law had made money after she married into the family. Otherwise, Du Laosi's hole alone would have forced her to death.
Therefore, in her heart, it didn't matter whether she had this girl or not. Xue Guibao and her nephew and niece were her only family.
Xue Guibao also thought so. He had borrowed money from his second sister before, but in the end, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. His family relationship was broken bit by bit.
Now, he was only close to Xue Guixiang. He felt that his sister was the closest person to him.
However, Xue Guixiang had no money. She only had the ten yuan gift from Xue Guiqin and the three hundred yuan compensation from the Cai family. As for the five hundred yuan that Cai Anan gave her before she left, she could not touch it.
Her daughter-in-law had worked hard to earn this money, so she couldn't let Xue Guibao squander it.
The 300 yuan that the Cai family compensated him could not be touched either. It would be spent by his son and daughter-in-law in the future.
Xue Guixiang thought for a moment, then turned around and took out the ten yuan."This is your second sister's wedding gift to Zhou Jin. Take it first and buy some food for the children.”
"Big Sis, my niece-in-law is making a lot of money, and you're only lending me ten yuan?" Xue Guibao roared.”
"Ten yuan is still too little. Go ask around on the streets. Is there anyone willing to lend you ten yuan for free?" Xue Guixiang said in a deep voice.”
Xue Guibao hurriedly explained," Sister, that's not what I meant. I'm just saying that Second Sister is too insensible. She's giving ten yuan as a gift for my nephew's wedding?”
If Second Sister was willing to lend him more, Big Sister would not have lent him only ten yuan.
Xue Guibao blamed Xue Guiqin for his dissatisfaction.
"The wedding gift is voluntary. It's up to the person to pay as much as they want. Your second sister is willing to pay ten yuan as a gift, which means that she hasn't forgotten about this nephew.”
Xue Guibao spat. If she hadn't forgotten about our poor family, she would have come back a long time ago. However, she had been gone for more than ten years. When had she ever thought of coming back? I think she's afraid that we poor relatives will borrow money, so she doesn't even dare to go home!”
"She's your second sister after all. It's not good for you to talk about her behind her back.”Xue Guixiang replied calmly.
Xue Guibao helped Xue Guixiang peel off the skin of the stick as if he was presenting a treasure. He said with a mischievous smile,"Big Sister, let's not talk about Second Sister anymore. Can you lend me more money?”
Xue Guixiang frowned." Ten yuan isn't enough. How much do you want to borrow?"”
"Two hundred." Xue Guibao raised two fingers.”
Xue Guixiang was shocked." Why do you need 200 yuan? Do you need so much to eat and drink at home?"”
Xue Guibao scratched his head." Sister, I was just thinking of adding some clothes for your nephew and niece. The weather is getting cold, and they are still wearing unlined garments. Are you willing to let them suffer from the cold?"”
Xue Guixiang was a soft-hearted person, so of course, she couldn't bear to let the child freeze. However, 200 yuan was too much. Her family had to make a living.
Xue Guibao coaxed and coaxed her until he finally managed to borrow a hundred yuan from her.
Xue Guibao took the hundred yuan and left.
He didn't go home, but took the money to Wang Mazi's house. Wang Mazi was a well-known scoundrel in the village. At this moment, he had gathered a group of people to gamble at home. The house was filled with a foul atmosphere and a group of snakes and rats.
Xue Guibao had thought of gambling when he saw how fast they were making money, but he didn't have any money on hand. He asked Sun Junqiao for it, but that woman scolded him, so he went to borrow money from his sister.
He knew that his sister would not lend him money to gamble, so he made up an excuse to buy food and clothes for the child.
He came over with the money in his hands and was about to bet it anxiously, as if he would miss out on a hundred million yuan if he was a second slower. The first day, his luck was not bad. The 100 yuan quickly rolled into 200 yuan. Xue Guibao had a good time and felt that the money came too easily. When he went home, he bought half a catty of pig's head meat for the children from the supply and marketing cooperative. It had been a year since they last smelled meat at home. Sun Junqiao saw him buy meat and asked him where the money came from.
Xue Guibao didn't dare to tell her the truth and only said that the money was given by his sister.
After Sun Junqiao heard this, he scolded him for being disappointing. He complained that he didn't want his sister to help him get rich. After scolding him, he took out all the money in his pocket. When Sun Junqiao saw that there was fifty yuan, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two catties of pig's head meat and the family of five had a good meal. Xue Guibao thought to himself that it was a good thing he didn't keep all his money in one place. Otherwise, it would be bad if this old woman took all of it.
After dinner, Xue Guibao went to Wang Mazi's house. Since he had just gotten fifty yuan, Sun Junqiao was in a good mood. He didn't care where he went and went to sleep. Xue Guibao clutched the notes in his hand and thought that he was dreaming. This money was too f * cking easy to come by. If he had known this would happen, why would he have worked so hard to farm? He would have just gambled!
