Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 311 - 307 I want to borrow money from you (third watch)

Lin Yue must have come to her because things were going well for her at the Lin Family. Knowing Lin Yue’s character, if things were well, she definitely wouldn’t have come to find her.

Her gaze lifted slightly, "You didn’t use to say that. You said you only had one sister, and that was Lin Jing. In fact, you do only have one sister, which is Lin Jing. Lin Yue, I’m not your sister. You coming to me at this time will only make Lin Jing angrier. Why did you even come?"

"I don’t want to stay at the Lin Family anymore, I want to leave," Lin Yue said, her face full of grievances. "When mom was here, how could I have known that those people at the Lin Family were wolves? They didn’t let me go to school, but also made me go out and earn money for them to use. I’m still a child, not even an adult, how could I have that ability? Sister, please take me in, I don’t want to stay at the Lin Family anymore, I’m really fed up."

If Lin Jing had dropped out like her, she would have accepted it, but Lin Jing wanted to continue her education while forcing her to give up school and earn money to support the family.

"Your mom isn’t going to be inside forever, just for a month or two. Couldn’t you think of waiting for her return? Why rush to find me? Are you sure there’s nothing else?" Luo Yuzhu wasn’t the principal offender but only an accomplice, and the incident with Su Peng’s car accident had nothing to do with her; relatively speaking, the situation wasn’t very severe.

"Even if mom comes out, my grandma and my sister will definitely give my mom and me trouble. I really don’t want to go back to that house anymore. Sister, please take us in, okay? When mom comes out, we can all live well together."

"Lin Yue, are you being too naive, or do you think I’m too soft-hearted?" Xiaofeng said as she listened to Lin Yue’s words, somewhat incredulously.

A family? If it had been before, the original host might have been moved by these words. But now, she had no hope for Luo Yuzhu.

"Sister, Sister Xiaofeng," Lin Yue cried her eyes out. "I really want to come and live with you. You can put everything on the line to save your unrelated elder brother and open your heart out to your stepmother. Why can’t you take in me and my mom? Do you remember? Just six months ago, your biggest wish was to follow mom back to the Lin Family, where our family could live happily and joyfully together."

Listeing to Lin Yue’s words, Xiaofeng felt a bit annoyed and pressed her temples, "Lin Yue, I don’t want to talk about the past, nor do I want to discuss my grievances with the Lin family and Luo Yuzhu. If you have something to say, say it; if not, please leave."

Lin Yue stopped sobbing and paused for a few seconds, "I want to borrow some money from you."

Xiaofeng burst into laughter abruptly—was the young girl out of her mind?

"You want to borrow money? How much?"

"Ten thousand," Lin Yue stood there, no longer pitiful, "I’ve thought it through. I want to break away from the Lin Family, I want to be independent. As long as I have money, I can board at school and then finish my education."

Xiaofeng thought about her idea, which wasn’t bad. She mused that if she were Lin Yue, she would probably do the same to break away from the Lin Family and live her remaining days alone with Luo Yuzhu.

"Was that your own idea, or did Luo Yuzhu teach you?" Lin Yue herself shouldn’t have that sort of acumen unless someone advised her.

"Of course, my mom taught me. She said she still had some money, but with her being inside, I couldn’t access it. She told me to borrow ten thousand from you first, and she’d pay you back when she comes out." Before coming here, Lin Yue had visited Luo Yuzhu, who was having a hard time at the Lin Family, so she gave her this advice.

Her mom meant for her to borrow a thousand, but what use was a thousand? If one were to borrow, it had to be a significant amount.

"Ten thousand?" Xiaofeng repeated, "That’s quite the sum. You’ve already paid your tuition; it’s just about staying in school. Why carry so much money, or do you intend to please Lin Jing and them with the borrowed money?"

"Just tell me whether you will lend it or not," Lin Yue’s tone started getting impatient, "My mom said she gave you twenty thousand to help her handle some matters before. I’m not just asking for money; I’m trying to retrieve ten thousand for my mom." Her mom, too—was she too rich to find places to spend, quickly dishing out twenty thousand?

If they still had twenty thousand at home, would she be reduced to being at Lin Jing’s mercy?

"So that’s what this is about." Xiaofeng realized, "Borrowing money is just a pretense; you really want to take the money and run. Lin Yue, now that you’ve put it this way, I definitely can’t lend you the money, as it’s clear you have no intention of paying me back."

If she lent out the money, it would surely be a case of the buns beating the dogs—there would be no return.

Lin Yue’s throat caught, and her eyes stared fixedly at Su Xiaofeng—how could she refuse to lend the money?

Thinking of something, tears flowed relentlessly from her eyes again, "What will it take for you to lend me the money? If you lend me the money this time, I will definitely repay you in the future." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

"I definitely can’t lend you ten thousand." Xiaofeng, propping her chin, looked at the young girl crying pitifully.

"Five thousand would do."

"I don’t have that either."

"How much can you lend?" Lin Yue asked, looking directly at Su Xiaofeng.

"50." Xiaofeng murmured, her red lips parting slightly.

For a boarding student, fifty yuan a month was enough. It was up to Lin Yue to decide.

Upon hearing Su Xiaofeng’s words, Lin Yue’s eyes flared with anger, "Su Xiaofeng, I knew you wouldn’t be willing to lend it. My mom insisted you would definitely lend it. Just fifty yuan for me, what’s fifty good for? It’s not even enough to treat a classmate to a meal outside."

"Lin Yue, I’m only agreeing to lend you fifty because you’re underage. Take it or leave it. I didn’t even want to lend it." The Lin Family was already in dire straits, yet she still thought about treating classmates to meals. It was too much.

"You think I’m a beggar, giving me just fifty yuan to get rid of me." Lin Yue had grown up spoiled in the Lin Family, and fifty yuan really meant nothing to her. Now, there was only one thought on her mind, that the other party must be mocking her: "I used to spend more than fifty casually on a meal or a piece of clothing. I know you have issues with our family. So, I, Lin Yue, will not endure this humiliation."

"Having backbone," Xiaofeng said appreciatively. "Keep that backbone. Fine, if you don’t want it, then leave."

Just opening her mouth to ask for ten thousand, are they that familiar?

Lin Yue scoffed, "Don’t think that the Lin Family really doesn’t have any money. My mom definitely still has some. Once my mom comes out, I won’t have to worry about money."

Xiaofeng just smiled and didn’t respond.

Lin Yue returned home empty-handed. When she got home, Lin Jing had already been waiting inside.

The house was in complete disarray, all the valuables gone, and the house itself was about to be reclaimed. They needed to find another place to live.

Seeing Lin Yue return, Lin Jing couldn’t hold back her anger: "Lin Yue, where have you been all day? Did you go to work?"

Startled by her sister’s voice, Lin Yue shrank her neck, her voice as quiet as a mosquito’s: "Sis, I went to see mom today. Mom said she still has some money, but we can only get it once she’s out. She asked us to cope for a month, and then we’ll have money."

"We don’t even have enough to make a pot boil at home, and we have to wait a month." On hearing this, Lin Jing was furious; she also learned that all the money was with Luo Yuzhu.

Lin Yue glanced at her grandmother, "Sister, you and others have handled the family money before. Surely you didn’t spend every penny? If there’s any left, take it out for now. When mom comes out, we can figure something out together. At the end of the day, aren’t we all family?"

"If it weren’t for Luo Yuzhu and Su Xiaofeng framing our Jianguo, our family wouldn’t be in this state. Besides, the money is all with your mom. We don’t have any on us. It’s your mom’s fault we’re in this mess. Either let her take out the money now, or figure it out yourself. Don’t you have another sister? Ask her then," said the grandmother, not wanting to hear the name Luo Yuzhu.

She knew what Luo Yuzhu was planning. She only wanted to ensure Lin Yue would stay comfortably at home for a month until Luo Yuzhu could come out and flee far away with Lin Yue and the Lin Family’s money.

As long as she had a breath left in her, she wouldn’t let Luo Yuzhu have it easy.

Thinking of leaving? She shouldn’t even think about it. She has money now, and she wouldn’t take it out.

"I’m off." Lin Yue pouted, "Even if I went, it would only serve to amuse her. Just lending fifty yuan, what’s fifty good for?"

"You really think you’re the Lin Family’s young mistress, huh? Fifty yuan can rent a room for two months, and you still don’t want it, are you foolish?" The grandmother, irritated by Lin Yue’s attitude, grabbed a rag nearby and threw it at Lin Yue: "Your mom plans to flee far away with you after she gets out. She shouldn’t even think about it. She caused our Jianguo to end up like this, and she must support the family."

"Granny, as I see it, Aunt Luo is also a victim of this incident. All of this is Su Xiaofeng’s conspiracy. It’s her, Su Xiaofeng, who has brought us to this point," Lin Jing blinked helplessly at her grandmother.

Everything was caused by Su Xiaofeng. Even if she and her grandmother had done anything excessive to Lin Yue, Lin Yue could only blame Su Xiaofeng.
