Chapter 361: The Qin Widow, Acting Like a Big‑Tail Wolf Here

Shazhu, of course, couldn't figure it out.

He's doing a good deed, so why does Teacher Ran not understand at all?

Is doing a good deed also wrong?

Qin Huairu and the others are so pitiful.

Why does Teacher Ran have no sympathy for them at all?

Teacher Ran has plenty of money, so why is she unwilling to lend a hand to help everyone?

Besides, it's not a loan; it's an advance.

He just can't make sense of it.

Seeing Shazhu say nothing and not leave, Teacher Ran frowned and asked:

"Do you have anything else to say?"

Shazhu hesitated a moment and said:

"Boss, I'm really out of options now; why don't you help a little?"

"It's not a loan; it's an advance on wages."

"As long as you don't kick me out, I'll keep working here."

"Deduct it from my wages."

Teacher Ran shook her head and said:

"I said no, and that means no."

Shazhu: "But Qin Huairu and the others, the elderly in the courtyard, are really too pitiful."

"Just show a little kindness."

Teacher Ran: "When I show kindness, it's not that kind of kindness."

"I already said that helping people is fine, but it depends on one's ability."

"If you lack ability, what can you use to help others?"

Shazhu: "I do have it; how could I not have ability?"

Teacher Ran: "If you had ability, you wouldn't be borrowing money everywhere!"

Shazhu: "That's different."

"I'm doing a good deed here."

"I have money, it's just that I gave it all to Qin Huairu."

"I never expected her to secretly take my money to start a business."

Teacher Ran: "Qin Huairu didn't say a word to you before taking your money to do business."

"She didn't tell you either, yet she used the money you borrowed to pose as a good person."

"Just because of that, you still think Qin Huairu is a good person?"

"Enough, He Yuzhu, stop talking; our worldviews differ too much."

"Don't grind away the last bit of goodwill I have toward you."

Shazhu shook his head, turned, and walked out.

He didn't dare say anything else.

Because Teacher Ran had already intensified her tone.

He worried that if he kept speaking, even this job might be at risk.

He now has not a single cent left and is still buried under a mountain of debt.

Meanwhile.

Xiao Dang and Huaihua were chatting at home.

Qin Huairu lay on the bed like a corpse.

She now deeply regrets why, when Shazhu asked her earlier if she really wanted to get a marriage certificate, she insincerely said she didn't want to.

She has been constantly worried that Shazhu would end up with Teacher Ran.

If that were the case, even if Shazhu wanted to help their family later, Teacher Ran would probably refuse.

She worries that this long-term Meal Ticket might be lost forever.

Therefore, she's in a very bad mood.

Xiao Dang and Huaihua also noticed her bad mood.

But after urging her for a long time, Qin Huairu still didn't say a word, still wearing that dead face.

They simply gave up.

So they sat there, chatting to themselves.

While talking, Xiao Dang suddenly asked:

"Huaihua, you say I, why am I not as gentle as you?"

Huaihua: "Huh?"

"We actually each have our own strengths."

"I just feel I'm not as smart as you."

Xiao Dang: "What good is being smart?"

"I still want to be gentle, but with my temper— sigh— why can't I be gentle?"

"Do you know?"

"Precisely because I'm not gentle, I fail at every relationship."

"The men I like all say I'm a tomboy."

Say I have no femininity at all.

Hey, I even wonder if we two aren't really sisters.

Huaihua: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

What are you talking about? We're not sisters!

Our relationship is the best.

Suddenly.

Qin Huairu let out a long sigh, got up from the bed, and walked outside.

Xiao Dang hurriedly asked, "Mom, where are you going?"

Qin Huairu: "I'm going to the hospital to see San Da Ma."

Qin Huairu reached the front yard and ran into Yu Haitang.

Yu Haitang unexpectedly took the initiative to greet, saying, "Qin Jie, where are you going?"

Qin Huairu's eyes shifted, she stopped, and said:

I want to go to the hospital to see San Da Ma.

Yu Haitang: "Oh, go ahead."

Qin Huairu: "Wait, Haitang, you also know our family—Second Elder and San Da Ye's families have had such a big incident."

I just want to ask you, can you lend me some money?

Yu Haitang smiled and said, "Sorry, all my money is tied up in the hotel, I have no spare cash."

Qin Huairu unwillingly asked again: "Then, can you talk to Xu Damao and ask him to lend me some money?"

Yu Haitang: "I'm afraid not; I've always handled my own money separately from Xu Damao."

I also don't know how much money he has.

If you want to ask, go ask him yourself.

Qin Huairu nodded with a sullen face and said:

Oh, I see.

Actually, I also want to help share some of your sister's burden.

Yu Haitang: "Oh, how so?"

Qin Huairu: "Isn't San Da Ma supposed to have surgery?"

The surgery funds are still insufficient.

I've already put in some of my own money, but it's still not enough.

Your sister and brother-in-law are worried about it.

We can't scrape together any money.

Yu Haitang: "That's the case, but I really have no spare money."

As for Xu Damao, I also don't know if he has any.

Or you could go ask him yourself.

Qin Huairu: "Then forget it."

I'm leaving now.

Yu Haitang smiled and nodded.

Qin Huairu walked out of the Siheyuan, thinking to herself:

What kind of person is this, so heartless!

She deserves a divorce!

Yu Haitang walked toward the Zhongyuan, thinking to herself:

The Qin widow, pretending to be a big bad wolf here?

Don't think I don't know what you're up to.

Hmph, still wanting me to lend you money.

If I lent you the money, could you even pay it back?

Your own household is a mess, you can't even afford meals, yet you're acting like a good person—how disgusting.

Hmph, I have money, but I just won't lend it.

Why should I lend it?

Before, when I stayed overnight at my sister's place, San Da Ye and his family tried to charge me rent.

They don't show any human feeling.

And still they want me to lend them money.

Back home, Xu Damao was sitting alone drinking tea.

Yo, why are you so leisurely today?

You're back, come, have a cup of tea with me.

Yu Haitang nodded, sat opposite Xu Damao, and asked:

Guess who I just ran into?

Xu Damao: "Who?"

Yu Haitang: "The Qin widow."

Running into her never brings anything good.

Xu Damao: "What's up?"

Yu Haitang: "She wants to borrow money from us."

Xu Damao smiled and said, "She really ought to borrow money."

"This time the business lost its capital entirely."

"No, what money is she borrowing?"

"I heard that the silly Shazhu gave her 20,000 yuan."

"Why does she still need to borrow money?"
