Tian's little cook

Chapter 67 Borrowing Money
"You know her?" Lin Zhimo didn't have any impression of this person in the original owner's memory.

"Well, she married into our village two years ago, and her husband died of illness last year. My grandfather and I went to see her doctor several times."

The original owner seldom went out after having freckles on his face in the past few years, no wonder he had to know him.

"Is Lin Jiao okay? Why don't we just go in." Shopkeeper Qin said from the side.

"It's okay." Lin Jiao was not injured at all. When he punched Li Liangcai just now, his punches were fast and his moves were proficient. He must have practiced martial arts before.

This is very good, he can protect Lin Zhimo in the future.

After everyone went in, Li Ran was standing behind Li Liangcai and rubbing his shoulders. He was punched on the back shoulder by Lin Jiao just now, causing him to grin in pain.

Shopkeeper Qin sighed slightly when he saw this scene, and asked Li Ran, "What do you want to see me today?"

"Shopkeeper, let's go to the lobby." Li Ran couldn't bear to talk about borrowing money in front of Lin Zhimo.

"No need, let's talk about it here." Shopkeeper Qin was very bored with Li Liangcai, and what happened just now made him even more displeased with him.

He also understood why Li Ran came to find him.

"Shopkeeper, the family has been struggling recently." Li Ran's voice was much softer, "I want to ask you to borrow some money."

"I just lent you some a few days ago." Shopkeeper Qin frowned, "It's not that I don't want to borrow it, but now I don't have much money on hand, so I lent it to my father-in-law's family, and now the money on hand is just enough to buy ingredients .”

It was the first time that Li Ran was rejected so bluntly by Shopkeeper Qin, and it was still in front of other people.

His face darkened all of a sudden, but he didn't achieve his goal, and he couldn't walk away: "How about I advance the wages first?"

"I really don't have any extra money. I don't have enough to buy vegetables. I still have to pay you at the end of the month." Shopkeeper Qin still refused.

Li Liangcai stood up with a "chuckle". Hearing these words at his age, he felt extremely humiliated: "Forget it, Dad, let's go."

After speaking, he didn't listen to Li Ran's dissuasion, and left directly.

Li Ran felt that the shopkeeper Qin was deliberately embarrassing himself in order to vent his anger on Lin Zhimo.

The money must not be available today, he said with a cold face, looked at Lin Zhimo and Lin Jiao, and chased his son out without saying a word.

Seeing his expression, Lin Zhimo probably blamed himself.

"Hey." After Li Ran left, Shopkeeper Qin sighed loudly: "Li Liang has become what he is now, and Li Ran can't get rid of it."

"It's not that I don't borrow money. He probably repays his son's gambling debts. Li Liangcai thinks that he has money to borrow, so he will go to gamble again." The treasurer Qin is actually thinking about Li Ran, but he will not appreciate it.

"Shopkeeper, let's prepare first." Lin Zhimo also delayed a lot of things because of this trouble.

"Okay, go get busy." Shopkeeper Qin stopped them again: "Don't worry about what happened today."

Lin Zhimo smiled, "It's all over, it's okay."

But she felt in her heart that Li Ran would not forget this matter.

After entering the kitchen, Lin Jiao went to light the fire first, and the crispy fish was about to start cooking.Sun Ranjiu sat down and helped wash the vegetables.

Lin Zhimo told Sun Ranjiu what happened in the alley just now, and then asked, "Then she lives alone now?"

"Yes." Sun Ranjiu replied: "She didn't have a child, and her in-laws didn't want to support her, so they gave her a dilapidated house to live in, and they didn't care about her life at all."

There was a rule in the Dasheng Dynasty that after a woman got married, she was not allowed to return to her natal family.If the husband dies, either continue to live in the in-law's house, or remarry.

Lin Zhimo once again felt the oppression of the feudal dynasty.
