Chapter 520 Borrowing Money
After drinking a bowl of sugar water, Yan wiped her mouth, looked up at Baiyun River, and rubbed her hands with a smile.
"My eldest niece, my aunt has a son from my brother. He is in his thirties and has never married a wife. After all, the family is poor and the girl looks down on him. Aunt, my hair has turned gray because of this matter, but there are What's the use? My wife still hasn't hugged me."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Yan glanced at Bai Yunxi and saw that she didn't even move her brows. She suddenly felt uncomfortable. Sure enough, it wasn't that her son didn't feel sorry for her.
"Aunt, I have a hard life. Your cousin is also incompetent. He has to guard the two acres of land every day and it is difficult to make ends meet. Your cousin's marriage has been postponed until now. My aunt is so anxious that she can't sleep at night. A few days ago, my aunt asked someone to help me. I found a bride, and she was also an old girl, but I heard that our family was poor, so she insisted on asking for a bride price of five guan. "
As he spoke, Mrs. Yan took out her handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes, looking very sad.
At this point, the other party's purpose of coming was clearly stated, to borrow money!
This was because she had been selling grain a few days ago, but she couldn't bear it anymore and started to have her own thoughts.
But what's funny is that they are not familiar with each other. What does Bai Chao care about whether she has a wife or not? It was such a beautiful dream to complain to her about borrowing money.
"The bride price of five guan is indeed not low. My cousin and his aunt only have such a son, so they have to sell everything. We country people have a hard life, and there is nothing we can do about it."
Baiyun Xi sighed and echoed.
Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Mrs. Yan's expression was stunned, and then she looked sad again.
"Even if my aunt sells the iron, she can't get it together. The other party has given a time limit. If the bride price cannot be delivered, the marriage will be ruined. A hundred years from now, my cousin and I will no longer be in the Bai family."
Baiyunxi listened and curled up the corner of her mouth.
"Most of the descendants of our Bai family have some potential, and we don't have to worry about luxuriant branches. Our generation has reached the generation of grandparents, and the grandchildren are springing up like bamboo shoots. They can't be stopped. My cousin thinks too much."
Yan: "..."
When did she talk about the Bai family?
What she was talking about was that her son was going to die. This damn girl pretended to be confused and deliberately misinterpreted her meaning.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Yan sighed deeply and looked at Baiyun Xi sadly and embarrassedly. Before she could speak, her eyes turned red.
"Eldest niece, my cousin came to you for help today. Since you and Brother Chao's grandfather are brothers, why don't you help my aunt? As long as the eldest niece takes action, Brother Chao's wife will definitely not run away. ”
Seeing Yan's pleading look, Bai Yunxi looked at her in surprise.
"Auntie, you want me to help Bai Chao find a wife? That's not good, right? Our family is still in the filial piety period. Within three years, it is not suitable to be involved in weddings and funerals."
Yan was so angry that even though she said it so plainly, this damn girl still played riddles with her.
"Ahem~, my eldest niece has misunderstood. Why did my aunt let you get involved in this? You only need to borrow five guan of money from my aunt, and your aunt and your uncle will handle the rest."
Hearing this, Baiyun Xi suddenly showed a dark look of realization.
"It turns out that my aunt came to borrow money today. Did you also hear that my family sells grain?"
I knew someone couldn't help it, but luckily I was prepared.
"Ahem~, for your grandfather's sake, my eldest niece can help my aunt."
Bai Yunxi looked at Yan's evasive eyes. It was so funny. She had never even met the parents of the original owner, let alone her grandfather's generation?
Where does the affection come from?
