The morning sunlight shone in through the window, Shen Lin opened his eyes, and Lu Xiaorong curled up in his arms like a contented fish.
After dinner last night, the two of them thought about what the child would look like. Lu Xiaorong said meaningfully that the baby is now four months old, and then looked at Shen Lin steadily and stopped talking.
How could Shen Lin's youthful body withstand such teasing? What happened next was both natural and planned for a long time. Shen Lin just hugged Lu Xiaorong, and he was completely smitten!
Shen Lin thought about everything that had happened these days, and he felt that this was the life he wanted after his rebirth.
This rebirth has allowed him to gain a lot, but for Shen Lin, the most important thing is still the warmth of home!
However, Shen Lin would never allow those things that he earned with his own sweat to be taken away for no reason in the name of family affection.
Quietly getting up and cooking millet porridge, Shen Lin prepared to make egg and vegetable pancakes for Lu Xiaorong.
I peeled a carrot, cut it into small dices, added eggs and green onions, stirred it into a batter, brushed the pan with oil, boiled the oil, poured in the batter, and slowly fried it until it turned golden brown. It looked very appetizing.
Shen Lin feels that his cooking efficiency is becoming more and more efficient!
Lu Xiaorong woke up and saw the breakfast on the dining table. He stepped forward and kissed Shen Lin, pretending to be angry and said: "It's all your fault for making me so fat!"
"I tell my wife that it is my duty to raise her well!"
The two laughed and calmed down. Lu Xiaorong suddenly asked worriedly: "Husband, can I really ask for money in these two days?"
"Don't worry about this. I will start giving your cousin the first blow today. I estimate that he can only last two days. If he can last three days, I think your cousin is a good man!" Shen Lin He hugged Lu Xiaorong, who was wearing pajamas, and said with a smile.
"If you don't get the money back, are you really ready to give up on the street across the street?" Although Lu Xiaorong looked radiant after yesterday's nourishment, she still frowned when she thought about the money. .
"Xiao Rong, 20,000 yuan is not a big deal to me at all. I originally planned to ask your cousin for the money and then give it to the cotton and linen company. Since you are still worried, I will let you take a look. How did your husband collect debts while collecting 20,000, no, 30,000 yuan in one day?"
As Shen Lin spoke, he held Lu Xiaorong's hand and said, "Didn't we already say that I am here to handle this matter? You just have to be responsible and take care of yourself!"
Lu Xiaorong wanted to say something else, but was pulled by Shen Lin to wash her face. However, she still hesitated in her heart. Besides asking for debts, what else could Shen Lin do to get 20,000 yuan in one go?
Fragrant vegetable egg pancakes, oily salted duck eggs, soft and glutinous pumpkin millet porridge, plus a small plate of cold cabbage, made Lu Xiaorong addicted and satisfied.
"Dong dong dong!"
Before breakfast was finished, and Shen Lin was about to clear away the dishes, there was a knock on the door.
Shen Lin frowned when he heard the knock on the door that was not gentle at all and seemed to be causing trouble. He was in a good mood now and didn't want anyone to disturb his and Lu Xiaorong's life. However, they had already arrived at the door, so he still opened the door. Door.
Chen Hongying, with a dark face, was looking at him coldly.
"Mom, why are you here so early? Have you eaten? Do you want some more?" When Shen Lin saw Chen Hongying, he immediately understood that the reason why the mother-in-law came here so early in the morning was probably related to yesterday's debt collection.
Thoughts were running through his mind, but on the surface he looked enthusiastic.
"I'm afraid I can't afford to eat at your house." Chen Hongying snorted and sneered at Shen Lin: "Your family has a big business, how can we, ordinary people, eat as much as we want!"
At this point, she pointed at Lu Xiaorong and said: "Lu Xiaorong, I really didn't expect that I would have given birth to such a white-eyed wolf like you!"
"Shen Lin is an outsider, why does he think I can't control it, but what about you, how can you do such a thing? That's your cousin. As soon as you lent the money, the second one came home. We need money, and it’s only been three days, so you can’t wait any longer, where do you want your mother to put her old face?”
"Tell me, when you were a child and grew up in your grandma's house, how did your uncle treat you? How did your grandma and grandpa treat you?"
"Ah, now that you are rich and have a few cents in your hand, why have you forgotten all these kindnesses?"
"Don't forget, you are the one they pissed and pooped on."
Chen Hongying has a loud voice, and this time she came full of anger. For a moment, the whole room was filled with her voice scolding Lu Xiaorong.
Shen Lin really didn't expect that what he would face so early in the morning would be his mother-in-law's violent storm. Of course, he couldn't let Lu Xiaorong face this scene alone.
He quickly protected Lu Xiaorong and said: "Mom, this matter is not what you think, it happened for a reason..."
"Shen Lin, you are the big boss. I can't talk to you now, and I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'm going to teach my own daughter a few words. I don't need to ask you for instructions, right?" Chen Hongying looked at Shen Lin impatiently. He waved his hand and interrupted unceremoniously: "Why, you have also deprived me of this power!"
Seeing the aggressive Chen Hongying, Shen Lin scratched his head. Although he was a reborn person, Shen Lin felt that he was very troubled by such an unreasonable mother-in-law.
"Mom, this matter is actually all because of me. I happen to..."
Before Shen Lin could explain, Lu Xiaorong suddenly grabbed his hand: "Don't talk, let me tell my mother today."
"Mom, don't be anxious. I went to my uncle's house yesterday because I felt that my uncle's house was not an outsider, so I went there. What's more, my cousin promised to pay back the money within three days!"
"Shen Lin wanted to contract the shop of the cotton and linen company across the street in Paris. On the day when his cousin borrowed the money, he worked on it all day. I didn't know that he was in a hurry for money, so he lent all the money at home to him. Cousin. When he came back in the evening, I found out about this. At that time, I wanted to ask my cousin for money, but Shen Lin said he was afraid that you would lose face and did not let me go. "
"We are in a hurry to use money, and we are not idle, so why can't we ask for money."
When Lu Xiaorong said this, he said angrily: "What's more, when my cousin said that we couldn't get the money together, we said that we should wait for the rest first. We only need 20,000 yuan now. This is what we have." Can’t we even ask for the money?”
Lu Xiaorong thought of the attitude of his uncle and cousin, and became even more angry: "But you don't know what the attitude of my uncle and cousin was when I went to ask for money. It seemed that I lent them money, but I was wrong!"
"My cousin said he didn't have any money and left us to figure it out. How could they be like this? Mom, when you came here so early in the morning, did your uncle tell you something?"
Chen Hongying, who was in a fierce mood, originally came here to investigate the crime, but at this time, after listening to her daughter's explanation, she felt that her daughter seemed to have been wronged.
The son-in-law is in a hurry for money, and he won't ask for it until three days later. I heard that if he doesn't chip in, he only needs 20,000 yuan now. Speaking of which, that is really the most benevolent thing.
What's more, the loan period for this 80,000 yuan has already come!
However, Lu Xiaorong's attitude made Chen Hongying unable to step down. She pointed at Lu Xiaorong and said: "Lu Xiaorong, your wings are strong, right? I can't control you, right?"
"Do you know how embarrassed you are about your mother's old face? Why do you want me to go back to my parents' house? Ah, you... you are really mad at me!"
After listening to Chen Hongying's words, Shen Lin knew that his mother-in-law's arrogance had subsided, and he immediately pulled Lu Xiaorong's hand. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning was very clear, that is, to give his mother-in-law a step down.
Unfortunately, Lu Xiaorong had a sullen face and refused to say a word.
Seeing Lu Xiaorong's appearance, Shen Lin was helpless. Although he didn't agree with Chen Hongying in his heart, he didn't want Lu Xiaorong to be so angry because of Chen Hongying.
After all, the baby in your daughter-in-law's belly is in a critical period of development.
"Mom, this is all..."
"I'm not your mother!" Chen Hongying stood up, turned around and left angrily. But before leaving, she said loudly: "I'll help you get this money back."
"You need 20,000 yuan urgently right now, right? I'll give you 20,000 yuan."
