Lying on a familiar yet unfamiliar bed, beneath me was a hard old mattress.
Li Ke surprisingly didn't suffer from insomnia and slept better than on the latex mattress he spent a huge sum of money to buy.
Maybe because he was pretending to be something, Li Ke woke up early the next morning.
Looking at the dusty roof, it turns out that I have really returned to the 1990s.
I didn't close the curtains when I went to bed last night, so the sun shone through the window.
It’s midsummer in the north and the sun is shining brightly. It seems like today is a sunny day.
They come, the security.
Li Ke got up and moved around a few times, and it turned out that he had the body of an eighteen-year-old.
After a good night's sleep, I felt that all the aches and pains in my body had recovered.
It's great to be young.
According to custom, the new daughter-in-law needs to serve tea to her parents-in-law the next day. This time Chen Xingyi didn't know if he would wait for her to come with him.
After Li Ke got up, he went to the west wing and took a look. Sure enough, there was no one in the room.
In the previous life, Chen Xingyi didn't wait for her and went there first. Li Ke was used to being timid and cowardly and felt embarrassed.
I was embarrassed to go there alone, and also afraid to face everyone in the Chen family. I felt so embarrassed that I couldn't hold my head up, so I sat in the room crying alone.
When her mother-in-law came to call her, she was too awkward and refused to go.
A large family waited for her to have breakfast until noon. The first day she entered the house, she left a bad impression on everyone.
Chen Xingyi refused to go home after that.
Li Ke has never seen any difficult customers in this life.
I don't feel ashamed even if I sneak into a cocktail party to attract investment and get kicked out by security guards.
My face has been beaten so hard by society that I have become invulnerable, let alone going to meet the Chen family alone.
Don't panic, it's a small scene
After Li Ke washed up, he went to the yard next door alone. As soon as he entered the yard, he heard talking and laughing.
Today is October 2nd. During the National Day holiday, it is estimated that all the adults and children of the Chen family are here.
As soon as Li Ke stepped into the central hall door, everyone in the room became quiet and turned to look at her.
There is a row of old-fashioned wooden sofas by the window in the middle hall, where Father Chen, Mother Chen and four brothers are sitting. Opposite and on both sides sit the female family members and children.
Li Ke took a cursory glance and didn't see Chen Chen. Chen Chen was the eldest child in the eldest brother's family, so she should be called aunt according to her seniority.
The matter of becoming his ex's aunt had caused her great pain in her previous life. Maybe she hadn't completely let go of it yet. After all, her first love was unforgettable and ended so painfully and tragically.
This life is different. That bitch dared to push her off the cliff in his previous life.
As his aunt, she had to teach her how to behave and let him know the consequences of repaying kindness with hatred.
"Keke is here, and so are you, Xingyi. I don't know how to wait for Keke." Her mother-in-law stood up, took her hand, and arranged for her to sit next to Chen Xingyi.
Chen Xingyi said nothing, and raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Dad, Mom, eldest brother and sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, third brother and third sister-in-law. Sorry to keep everyone waiting." Li Ke stood up and called people one by one.
"It's been a long time waiting." The sister-in-law said unceremoniously.
"The new daughter-in-law is very dignified," the second sister-in-law said sarcastically.
There is an undercurrent in the air.
Li Ke knew that the three sisters-in-law were all unbalanced. They were both daughters-in-law of the Chen family, and her bride price was ten times more than the others.
Moreover, the ten times the betrothal gift was collected by the whole family together.
The elder brother has watched his younger brother grow up since he was a child, and has a deep brotherly love. The money will be paid out, but the sister-in-law has no blood relationship with the brother-in-law and has no emotional relationship. Besides, he still has his own small family to support.
Of course I couldn't feel happy if I paid such a large sum of money for no reason.
"Mom, dad, brothers and sisters-in-law, I'm a more direct person, so don't mind if you say whatever you want.
I can understand that my sisters-in-law were unhappy because of the 30,000 yuan. My mother used the money to pay off my brother's debts, and she didn't leave a penny for me.
So I have no money now, and I have an idea. Do you think this will work?
Let me first write you an IOU. The repayment period is two years, and the interest will be based on the bank's interest rate.
I hope everyone will give me some time and let me find a way to earn money to pay back the money." Li Ke stood up and bowed to everyone after speaking.
After saying this, everyone was stunned, and a needle could be heard instantly in the middle hall.
Soon, it was like cold water splashing into a hot oil pan, and everyone expressed their opinions one after another.
"If a family doesn't talk to each other, they won't pay back anything they say.
"The money was for Xiao Liu's wedding. It was given, not borrowed. There is no such thing as repaying the money."
"To put it lightly, how can you earn 30,000 yuan in two years?"
"That's right, what if the payment is not repaid? The IOU is not a piece of paper."
Everyone was talking about it, but Chen’s father and Chen’s mother did not express their opinions.
Chen Xingyi rarely looked directly at Li Ke, with an incredible expression on his face.
Chen Xingyi had met Li Ke several times in the village before.
Every time I see this girl, she keeps her head down and doesn't dare to look up, let alone speak loudly.
Now that I speak so openly, I dare to write an IOU. It’s amazing.
The Chen family is a large and prosperous family. There are four sons and two daughters in this generation, and Chen Xingyi is the youngest.
They are all married now, the eldest brother has one son and two daughters, and the second brother has one daughter and two sons.
The third brother and the third sister-in-law just got married last year and have no children.
There are two other sisters-in-law who are married.
While talking, the third sister-in-law came over with a tray with two cups of tea on it, "Xiao Ke, come here, serve tea to your parents first."
"Dad, please drink tea." Li Ke picked up a cup, bent slightly and handed the tea to Chen's father with his head lowered.
"Mom, please drink tea." In the same gesture, she picked up another cup of tea and handed it to her mother-in-law.
"Hey, Keke, sit down quickly." Father Chen and Mother Chen drank tea and gave her a red envelope for lip change.
"In a blink of an eye, Xiaoliu is getting married, and you are all grown up. Dad hopes that you can all be responsible.
You must respect your wife, love your children, and run your own small family well.
When something happens, brothers and sisters should help each other." Father Chen said after drinking tea.
"Xiao Liu is an adult once he gets married. You can't mess around anymore and treat Coco well.
Ke Ke is a good girl who is open-minded and responsible, taking on the responsibilities of being a husband and a father.
OK, what do you say?" Mother Chen beat her youngest son.
Hearing the responsibility of being a father, Li Ke felt a little guilty. She was not pregnant, and the B-ultrasound was faked by Wang Cuilian who asked someone to give her money.
It was particularly ugly when he was exposed in his previous life, and Li Ke has been secretly supporting his parents' family.
Therefore, everyone thought that she collaborated with Wang Cuilian to forge B-ultrasound reports and defraud marriages and money. She couldn't defend herself, and no one believed that she didn't know anything about it.
I have to find a way to pay back the money in this life, and then find a good time to confess and seek leniency.
"Brothers must also settle accounts. Xiaoliu has been taken care of by his brothers and sisters for so many years.
The eldest brother's family has three thousand, the second brother's family has four thousand, the third brother's family has five thousand, the eldest sister's family has three thousand, and the second sister's family has five thousand.
I will try to pay it off within a year. If I still can't, my homestead and house will belong to my brothers and sisters.
The income from the annual harvest of my responsible field will also go to my brothers and sisters until the money is repaid."
Author: Please remember Chen Xingyi’s indifferent face at this moment.
When he shamelessly begs for kisses, hugs and lifts in the future, we will laugh at him together.
