"Yes, if you want to buy, buy it. If you don't want to sell, get out of the way and don't block us from buying."
"Yeah, you're dithering! Whether you want to buy it or not!"
"Miss, if you don't want it, we'll take it. Don't waste other people's time, OK?"
"Yeah, and he's still carrying Hermes. Can't he even come up with more than a million?"
…
The words of a home buyer in the queue reminded Yu Wenyin.
"What should we do? Yin'er, should we buy it?" Zhou Qingqiu really wanted to buy it, but he didn't have enough money, so he was a little worried.
"purchase!"
Yu Wenyin placed her Hermès bag in front of the sales lady:
"We'll give you 1.2 million first, and use the bag as collateral for the remaining 200,000. I'll come back to redeem the bag when I have enough money."
When the sales lady saw it, she was like, wow, it’s a Hermès crocodile leather Birkin bag, and in the most difficult to buy black color!
But this woman couldn't even come up with 1.4 million. Could she be using a fake bag to fool them
The lady at the sales office didn't dare to make the decision, so she had to call the manager over.
The manager was a woman in her forties. When she saw the bag, her eyes lit up.
"How about this, I'll pay the 200,000 yuan and you sell me the bag, how about that?"
The manager dreams of having a black platinum bag.
But every time I went to the Hermès store, the salesgirls told me I had to queue.
Yu Wenyin shook her head: "This is the first handbag my boyfriend gave me. I can't bear to part with it. Manager, I'll leave it with you first. I'll come to redeem it when I have enough money."
The manager hoped that she wouldn't be able to raise enough money, but since the client said so, the manager had to agree reluctantly.
Yu Wenyin knew that her boyfriend's family had no money, so she had no intention of borrowing from him at all.
Who else can I borrow from
Yu Wenyin and Zhao Zitong wanted to go together.
Madandan!
Ma Dandan just went to a bank for an internship this year, so there is no doubt that she has no money. But Dandan's parents run a tea restaurant, so borrowing one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand should not be a problem!
When Zhao Zitong arrived at Tianji Tea Restaurant, he found Yu Wenyin writing an IOU to Dandan's parents.
"Wen Yin, it's not that we don't want to lend you the money, it's just that our house has just been renovated recently and we don't have that much money on the books. We can only lend you 100,000. I hope you don't blame us."
Ma Dandan's mother Liu Huiqi felt a little embarrassed. Yu Wenyin rarely spoke to her, but she couldn't help her.
"Aunt Huiqi, please don't say that. I'm already very grateful that you can lend me 100,000 yuan."
Yu Wenyin said with a smile as she wrote the IOU.
I have no relatives in Hong Kong, and the only people who consider me a relative are Ma Dandan's family.
When you borrow money from others, if they are willing to lend it to you, it is a favor; if they are unwilling to lend it to you, it is their duty.
Now Aunt Huiqi is willing to lend her one hundred thousand yuan without asking her to pay interest, which is already a great favor.
Zhao Zitong could only smile bitterly and never mentioned borrowing money again.
Not only she but also her mother Sun Shaofen had a bitter smile.
After listening to her daughter tell her the whole story, Sun Shaofen felt complicated.
It turned out that he had misunderstood his daughter. Zitong did so many things so that the two of them could live a good life in the future.
And what about yourself
I can only make wild guesses and can't help at all.
She decided to borrow money!
Of course she has relatives in Hong Kong. When she fled to Hong Kong from the mainland in 1972, she came to live with her relatives.
At first, I lived in my relative's home in Hong Kong. Later, I and Zhao Wenqiang moved out. We still kept in touch in the past few years.
Later, if it weren't for Zhao Wenqiang's gambling addiction and borrowing a lot of money from his aunt's family, relatives would treat them as if they were the plague god when they saw them.
Later, Zhao Wenqiang died, and Sun Shaofen was too embarrassed to visit him again.
But now, for the sake of her daughter, she had to swallow her pride and beg for mercy today.
The relative in Hong Kong is my aunt, who is also my father’s sister.
My aunt passed away a few years ago.
To be honest, the only time we had contact over the years was at my aunt's funeral.
After all, it was Zhao Wenqiang and I who let my aunt's family down.
My aunt has two sons and one daughter.
Sun Shaofen was holding a big bag of fruit and standing at the door of her aunt's house. She didn't dare to ring the doorbell for a long time.
"Who are you looking for? I saw you hanging around outside their house for a long time. What do you want to do?"
The neighbor next door saw that she had been here for a long time and became suspicious of her.
"I...I...I'm looking for Luo Weicheng."
Sun Shaofen was a little nervous, but seeing that her neighbors were about to call the police as if she were a thief, she had to muster up the courage to speak out.
Luo Weichen is my aunt’s eldest son.
"The family has gone back to the mainland to visit relatives during this period."
When the neighbor next door saw that she accurately said the neighbor's name, he relaxed his vigilance against her. But when he saw that she was carrying a large bag of things by herself, he reminded her out of kindness.
"Thank you, old man." Sun Shaofen was very disappointed. She didn't expect that her eldest cousin and his family would go back to the mainland to visit relatives.
It seems that I won’t be able to come back for a while.
Sun Shaofen had no choice but to go find her second cousin Luo Weijie again.
Luo Weijie was not at home. When Zhang Yunxiang, the second cousin's wife, saw her, her face immediately turned cold:
"What are you doing here?"
As soon as Zhang Yunxiang opened the door, she saw Sun Shaofen standing at the door with a bag of fruit. Her disgust for the couple was written all over her face, and she didn't even try to hide it.
She still clearly remembered that Zhao Wenqiang had borrowed 200,000 yuan from her husband and had not yet repaid it, and her family had not yet come to collect the debt, but Sun Shaofen came to them on her own initiative.
"Sister Yunxiang, is my second cousin here?"
Sun Shaofen's voice was timid. She was holding a piece of fruit in her right hand and rubbing her trouser leg nervously with her left hand.
"Not here? What for? Want to borrow money again?"
Zhang Yunxiang screamed. She was disgusted when she saw Sun Shaofen's dead look. This family made her feel sick.
Can’t blame Zhang Yunxiang.
Who would like a relative like Zhao Wenqiang who likes gambling and borrowing money all day long
It's just human nature.
"Yes... yes... I'm sorry, sister-in-law. My second brother is not here, so I will... I will go back first."
Sun Shaofen's face turned red when Zhang Yunxiang said "You want to borrow money again". She put down the fruit in her hand, turned around and ran away.
Waves of humiliation and powerlessness surrounded Sun Shaofen, and she returned home in a daze.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Zitong was shocked when she saw Sun Shaofen's tearful face.
“Tongtong, I’m sorry. It’s my fault that I couldn’t help you borrow the money…” Sun Shaofen burst into tears before she finished her words.
"Mom! Who asked you to borrow money?" Zhao Zitong was angry and distressed: "You didn't go to borrow money from your eldest and second cousins, did you?"
In the original owner's memory, the relationship between his family and his great aunt's family was not good, but of course this could not be blamed on his great aunt's family.
In my memory, my great aunt was very good to my mother and I, and would provide some help from time to time. However, she passed away a few years ago.
My family and my two cousins also completely cut off contact.
However, if you put yourself in their shoes, if you were your cousin's wife, you wouldn't like the original owner's family either.
