Chapter 2371: Asking for Money

During this period, Xu Yutuan had been thinking a lot. If her son continued to do this, something would happen sooner or later, and the same would happen to her daughter. As for her husband, Hu Laosan, she had visited him in the prison some time ago. After five years of prison food, Hu Laosan, who was already in poor health, was now as thin as a reed stick. He would cough when the seasons changed. He was useless and could not be relied on at all after he was released.

How could she not think about herself? She could only save more money.

Her children would be left to their own devices. She did not have the ability to take care of them.

Hu Zhihong's eyes were red, and she felt bad. "My brother and I didn't say we wouldn't support you when you're old. Why are you like this?"

"How can we support you? Who of you can make money? Your brother is worse than your father, and you're not much better. Your exams are worse than shit. What good job can I expect in the future?"

Xu Yutuan couldn't help but scold her. She didn't even want to look at Hu Zhihong. She lowered her head to eat noodles. After eating, she still had to do handicrafts. The leather shoe factory had closed down. She now did some handicrafts at home, stringing beads, frying thread ends, and packaging socks. She did whatever she could, and she didn't have to worry about living expenses for a month.

Hu Zhihong bit her lip, feeling very unconvinced. Grades were not the only criterion for testing success. She was beautiful, had a good figure, and was brave. Many boys wrote love letters to her. In the past, people always said that no matter how well a girl did, it was better to marry a good husband. Hum, she would choose a husband who was better than Ye Qingqing's fiancé in the future, so that all those who looked down on her would look at her with new eyes.

Including her mother Xu Yutuan.

"That's right." A girl's voice came from the door. Xu Yutuan's hands trembled and her face looked a little ugly. She recognized that it was the girl who had paid a deposit of 80 yuan before, and she dared to come to the door.

After eating the noodles in the bowl in two or three mouthfuls, Xu Yutuan wiped his mouth and did not go out, waiting for the other person to come.

Ye Qingqing had seen Xu Yutuan sitting in the half-open door, but only from the back. From the back, it was obvious that the woman looked much older than before, with a hunched back, and she aged very quickly.

In fact, Xu Yutuan was not too old, only about 45 or 46 years old. If a woman takes good care of herself, she will look very young at this age, and even have a girlish feeling, but Xu Yutuan looked like an old woman.

"Xu Yutuan, you took a deposit of 80 yuan from my classmate before, and now my classmate doesn't want to rent a house, you should return the deposit to her." Ye Qingqing said loudly at the door.

Xu Yutuan, who had her back to her, was shocked and frowned. How could she be a classmate of this dead girl?

This money is a bit hard to earn. She was the only one in the alley who suffered a great loss at the hands of Ye Qingqing. Her husband was also put in jail. She was really afraid of this dead girl, but she felt really distressed when she asked her to take out 80 yuan.

"At most, I can only return half of it. Who made her regret it? It was clearly agreed that it was rented. I took the trouble to clean the house. The 40 yuan is my hard work fee."

Xu Yutuan didn't want to quarrel with Ye Qingqing, so she decided to compromise and agreed to return half.

It was impossible to return the whole thing. She would rather muster up the courage to make a scene. At worst, she would just throw a tantrum and act like a rogue. She didn't believe that Ye Qingqing, a bride-to-be who was about to get married, would not find it unlucky.

Xu Yutuan turned around slowly while speaking. Seeing her appearance, Ye Qingqing was shocked. This woman was older than she thought. She looked older than Gu Nianci, who was obviously old enough to be her mother.

She saw Xu Yutuan several times last year, and he didn't age as well as he does now. How could he age so quickly in just one year?

Ye Qingqing frowned, vaguely sensing something was wrong, and carefully examined Xu Yutuan's face.
