70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 137: Aunt’s Dilemma
"I’ll hold onto the things for now, and when I’ve saved enough money, I’ll pay you back." Xu Mumu paused for a moment, fifty bucks, treating her like a child? Even with her toes she knew it was worth more than that, this guy, seriously.
This favor is quite significant, how am I supposed to repay it? This guy clearly isn’t short on money, should I give him some information? He’s being so generous with her, it’s making her feel a bit embarrassed.
With so many people around, Xu Mumu didn’t say much more. She really needed this repeater, and she believed Yin Yang would need the news about the resumption of the college entrance exam. She’d find a chance in the next few days to give Yin Yang some tips.
This guy is so sharp, she believed she didn’t need to say much, he’d understand.
When Yin Yang was leaving, Xu Mumu took some snacks from her room; these were originally for the kids as treats, but since Yin Yang had given her something so valuable, giving him some snacks was no big deal.
"You guys keep them and eat them; I don’t like candy," Yin Yang said helplessly.
"Then take these back and eat them; you don’t have much food over there either, use them as a snack when you’re hungry," Xu Mumu put the candy away. Yin Yang was a man now, giving him candy just felt inappropriate.
"Alright." Yin Yang nodded with a gentle smile.
After sending Yin Yang off, Xu Minglei and the others were circling around the repeater in the hall; they had never seen such a thing before.
"Big sister, big sister, open it for us, we want to learn English." Xu Jiaojiao said excitedly, she couldn’t wait any longer.
"Okay, I’ll teach you how to use this thing, just don’t break or dirty it," Xu Mumu said with a smile.
"Big sister, I want to learn." Xu Jiaojiao was even more excited; Yin Zhiqing said this thing was worth fifty bucks, so expensive, they didn’t dare to break it.
"I want to learn too, I want to learn too," Xu Minglei looked expectantly at his sister.
"Alright, alright, everyone can learn." Xu Mumu said with a smile.
Xu Xue watched the hall with a complex expression on her face. She seemed to have misjudged; this Yin Zhiqing seemed even more capable than Huo. But now that she’s working with Huo Qingze, she’s also made quite a bit of money.
She didn’t know much about Yin Yang either; he had already left the team before the college entrance exam resumed.
Along with him, Professor Song, who lived in the bullpen, also left. It seemed this Professor Song was Yin Zhiqing’s grandfather. These were all rumors, and she didn’t know if they were true or not.
Compared to Xu Xue’s complex feelings, Tian Fang was just jealous. She had never seen someone with such a handsome face as Yin Yang. If he ignored everyone, she might feel a bit balanced, but he seemed to treat Xu Mumu exceptionally well, giving such valuable gifts, which she had never seen before.
All of this made her extremely jealous of Xu Mumu.
Xu Mumu couldn’t be bothered with Tian Fang. The kids were especially interested in the repeater; this lesson was directly used by Xu Mumu to teach English, as there were some tapes.
Seeing Xu Mumu teaching her siblings, Xu Xue didn’t intend to disturb them and took Tian Fang out instead.
"Xu Xue, who was that person just now? Why did he give Mumu such a valuable thing?" Tian Fang asked curiously.
"He’s a Zhiqing in our team. What gift? Didn’t Xu Mumu say she’d pay for it?" Xu Xue looked at Tian Fang faintly. To be honest, she didn’t really think highly of this cousin.
In her past life, she lived poorly, and Tian Fang didn’t fare much better, seemed like she got cheated, stole the family’s money and ran away. She only returned a few years later when she was already seriously ill.
"What’s his name?" Such a good-looking person, it’s nice to look at him twice. If she weren’t timid, she would’ve asked Xu Xue to take her to the Zhiqing point to see that Zhiqing again.
"Yin Yang, I’d advise you not to have any ideas about him." Xu Xue looked at Tian Fang seriously.
"You, what are you talking about?" Tian Fang was startled and couldn’t look Xu Xue in the eye. Being stared at by Xu Xue, she felt like all her thoughts were seen through by her.
"You know well whether I’m talking nonsense." Xu Xue said faintly. Meanwhile, she was thinking about things from her past life. At that time, her mother’s unborn child was lost, and her aunt brought Tian Fang home, seemingly to ask for something from the family.
Xu Xue didn’t know what it was, but she remembered her grandparents were very angry. After that, Xu Chunmei never returned to her maiden home.
Now that her mother was fine, she was curious about what her aunt came back to ask her grandparents for.
As for saying they came to see their pregnant sister-in-laws, Xu Xue didn’t believe it at all. Her aunt didn’t even know about Li Caixia and her mother’s pregnancies. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Ever since Xu Mumu came, things at home have changed a lot.
"Sister Fangfang, why did you come back exactly?" Xu Xue asked curiously.
"No, nothing." Tian Fang was startled, immediately denying.
Xu Xue’s eyes deepened, Tian Fang didn’t look like she had nothing to deal with.
But matters of her aunt were for her grandparents to worry about, and had nothing to do with their second house.
Back at the Old Xu Family, Xu Qingxing didn’t stay long either; she took Qin Dongdong back to the county, leaving only Xu Chunmei and the Old Xu people at home.
"Eldest daughter, tell me, what business do you have coming back?" Old Xu took a puff of tobacco, looking at Xu Chunmei in front of him. After all, she’s his child; Xu Chunmei’s change in expression didn’t escape the old man’s eyes.
When Old Xu asked, Xu Mumu in the other room perked up her ears as well, letting a few kids read along with the tape. She also wanted to know what brought her aunt back.
"Dad, I, I want to borrow some money." Xu Chunmei lowered her head, her voice very low.
"Borrow money? Borrow what money? Where would our family have any money?" Before Old Xu could speak, Madam Chen refused first. After all, Xu Chunmei was a married daughter, water spilled, only a relative now.
"Why do you need to borrow money?" Old Xu also frowned slightly. Since the separation, it’s the eldest’s couple running the household, and what the old couple kept was just for their retirement.
"Tian Zhuang, he went gambling with others and owes a lot of money, Dad, help us out, or they’ll take Fangfang away." Xu Chunmei knelt in front of Old Xu immediately, tears beyond control, crying more heartbreakingly.
Xu Mumu also frowned slightly. The image of that uncle in her memory seemed like an honest person, never expected he dared to gamble, such courage?
Anyone involved in gambling is never good, and it’s addictive, the more they lose, the crazier they get, can’t escape without shedding a skin.
"What are you saying? Gambling? How big a fortune do you have that you dare to gamble? No money." Madam Chen said angrily. These days, who doesn’t wish they could split a penny in half to use, daring to gamble, losing it is deserved.
