Capítulo 1510: Chapter 1510: Help in Ergency, Not in Poverty (Part 4)
Only after Xiu Jianlin’s figure disappeared did the smile on Ruanlin Family’s face gradually fade. She turned to look at Ruan Jianguo, who imdiately shrank his neck and showed a fawning smile.
“Mom…” he called.
“How much have you borrowed?”
“Mom… I…”
“How much? Don’t make ask a second ti.”
“All together, it’s two or three hundred…” Ruan Jianguo replied, but seeing Ruanlin Family’s gaze becoming sharper, he finally had to slowly admit a number: “About a thousand or so…”
“It seems we’re giving you too much pocket money,” Ruanlin Family said languidly.
Because Ruan Jianguo had a nickna “Ruan Big Money,” Ruanlin Family and Shu Jiao had long started to restrict his spending. Big expenses required accounting and reporting, and they didn’t pay much attention to a hundred or so dollars. After all, he was a boss, so he always had a few hundred on him to handle affairs outside.
But Ruanlin Family didn’t expect him to squeeze out this little pocket money to give to that family of three.
She glanced towards the building, asking indifferently, “Jianguo, just tell Mom the truth—is Xiu Cheng that kid yours?”
“Mom! What nonsense are you spouting!” Ruan Jianguo shouted, his face turning pale with urgency.
Ruanlin Family sneered, “It doesn’t seem like it, huh? I thought that kid was yours, given that you’ve been supporting them and their whole family!”
“…” Ruan Jianguo glanced towards the back door of the building, not seeing Old Man Shu’s figure, but he was still so scared that his legs felt weak.
He said helplessly, “I just think Jianlin is a bit pitiful.”
“Oh, pitiful, huh? Sure, let’s go pick them up and bring them back to the city later. Anyway, there’s an empty villa in the city for our Little Darling, they can live there. Maybe that’s not enough; why not give them a store as well?”
“Mom!” If he still couldn’t detect the sarcasm in Ruanlin Family’s words, he’d have lived in vain.
Besides, why should Little Darling’s house be given to them, and a store too? That’s all ant for Little Darling in the future! Those two boys shouldn’t even think about it!
“Ruan Jianguo, I’ll only say this to you once: Help in ergencies, not poverty. When you helped with hospital fees before, did I say anything? Xiu Jianlin is poor, he lets his wife and son starve, that’s his own incompetence. If you lend money again, don’t bla for telling your wife you’re supporting soone else’s wife and kids!”
“Mom!” Ruan Jianguo was almost in tears: “I won’t dare ever again, please don’t say that.”
Seeing how scared he was, Ruanlin Family figured he wouldn’t dare continue like this, so she shot him a disdainful glance and turned to walk into the building.
Ruan Jianguo shrank his neck, touched his nose at the back, and muttered softly, “So harsh, really makes you wonder if you’re the biological one.”
“You’re really not!” Ruanlin Family sneered coldly in front. None of them brought her any peace of mind; she truly wanted to strangle them all and start over!
Actually, if Ruan Jianguo were helping others in the village, Ruanlin Family might not have been like this. After all, Ruan Family did a lot of good deeds over the years to bless Ruan Jiaojiao.
But it just had to be Xiu Jianlin, which made her a bit uncomfortable.
Ruanlin Family never thought highly of Xiu Jianlin. This man not only was incompetent but also was a pushover, listening to his wife on everything. Of course, if the wife were sensible, like Shu Jiao, it’d be fine.
