Chapter 174

Sihe Academy

When the couple returned home, the sun was already about to set.

In the afterglow of the sunset, every household raised cooking smoke.

Song Yulan carried a bundle of vermicelli into the kitchen in a happy mood:

"You rest, I'll go cook."

Cao Weiguo said: "I'm not hungry yet, just boil some porridge."

"Got it!"

Song Yulan replied and started working in the kitchen.

"Is Weiguo home!"

"Aunt Sun, come in and sit."

Hearing the shout outside, Cao Weiguo opened the door quickly.

Aunt Sun from the same courtyard stood outside the door.

Aunt Sun stood at the door, hesitant: "Weiguo, Aunt has something to ask for your help."

Seeing Aunt Sun's embarrassed look, Cao Weiguo immediately guessed that she had something to ask him.

He said gently: "You say it, if I can help you, I will try my best to help."

Although he didn't want to have too much contact with these neighbors, he didn't want to make the relationship too bad either.

But he didn't say it too fully; he would still refuse things that were hard to handle.

Aunt Sun said somewhat nervously: "Isn't it that my eldest son is getting married, and the woman insists on wanting a sewing machine? I got the ticket, but the money is not enough. If you have spare money on hand,"

"Can you lend my family some? I'll pay you back after two months."

Aunt Sun rarely opened her mouth to borrow anything, but these days, for her son's marriage, she had completely lost face.

She had almost borrowed from all her relatives and friends, making many people hide when they saw her.

They were afraid she would open her mouth to borrow money, finally making everyone embarrassed.

In this day and age, no family is rich; every family spends every penny carefully.

She borrowed here and there but still couldn't scrape together enough money, so she had no choice but to run to the Cao family.

The richest in this courtyard is the Eldest Uncle's family.

But this Eldest Uncle held his money very tightly, and she spent half a day talking without borrowing a single cent.

Instead, she was lectured by the Eldest Uncle, telling her not to indulge the child.

She didn't want to indulge either, but this concerned her son's marriage.

She couldn't let her son's marriage blow up because of a sewing machine.

As soon as Cao Weiguo heard it was borrowing money, his heart settled down.

He knew a little about the situation of Aunt Sun's family.

Aunt Sun's husband died early, and she raised a son alone.

Because she is a regular worker at the supply and marketing cooperative, has a stable income, and has few people, life is okay.

It's just that this son, Chi Ping'an, is somewhat idle, couldn't keep a few temporary jobs, and wanders around the street all day.

If this money is lent out, he doesn't know when it will be paid back.

Although he is not short of money, he doesn't want to throw money into the water.

Seeing Cao Weiguo hesitate and not speak, Aunt Sun couldn't help but feel anxious.

If Cao Weiguo also refused to lend money, she really didn't know what to do.

Aunt Sun begged: "Weiguo, help Aunt, I can write an IOU, this money will definitely be paid back."

Cao Weiguo said gently: "I naturally believe in Aunt's character. Tell me the number, I will try my best to scrape it together for you."

Aunt Sun said excitedly: "Seventy yuan, I guarantee to pay it off within three months."

Cao Weiguo said in surprise: "Aunt Sun, this is not a small amount!"

Aunt Sun had a bitter face; naturally, she knew this was not a small amount.

Her son's marriage, betrothal gifts, jewelry... spending money like water.

The family foundation that was squeezed together was emptied out.

Aunt Sun said in a low voice: "Weiguo, you also know that Aunt works at the supply and marketing cooperative. The unit often issues some industrial coupons. If you don't mind, I will use those coupons to pay off the debt at half price."

These words made Cao Weiguo quite moved.

Industrial coupons are issued according to the salary income ratio of the staff.

Cao Weiguo can get a few sheets every month, but for him, it's not enough at all.

And he has been collecting white liquor.

Storing Fen liquor, Luzhou, and Xifeng from this era in the farm, he can easily sit and wait for appreciation.

He is not short of money, but to buy things, having money is useless; he also needs tickets.

The industrial coupons Aunt Sun mentioned are exactly what he needs!

After thinking for a moment, Cao Weiguo gritted his teeth and said: "I know it's not easy for you, and I can rest easy with your words. If you use industrial coupons to pay off the debt, don't use half price, just use the market price. I can't take advantage of an elder."

Aunt Sun said happily: "Thanks, Weiguo, you've helped my family a lot."

Cao Weiguo said: "You sit for a while, I'll go get the money for you."

After speaking, Cao Weiguo went into the kitchen and told Song Yulan about borrowing money.

Hearing that he was going to lend money, Song Yulan's face didn't look good on the spot.

It's easy to borrow money but hard to pay it back.

It's easy to lend money, but what if it doesn't come back?

Don't be heartbroken!

Asking for debt will hurt feelings!
