Chapter 72 Decisive Rejection
When they got home, they heard that she hadn't found the house, so Ruan Erwu immediately told her that he would look for it with her the next morning.

After hearing this, Ruan Mengmeng nodded.

The next day, early in the morning, Ruan Mengmeng and Ruan Erwu went out to find a house.

On this day, Ruan Mengmeng and Ruan Erwu searched hard for a whole day, and when they couldn't find a house and were about to give up, they accidentally saw a house posting a rental notice at their door.

Their eyes lit up, and they immediately went over to ask.

"Is your house for rent?"

The person who posted the notice did not expect someone to ask so soon, and was taken aback for a while, "Are you going to rent a house?"

"Yes."

The man said, "My house is for rent."

"Then how to rent it? How much money?"

The man frowned and said, "My house is a courtyard house. There are four two-bedroom houses in it. The kitchen and hut are shared. I want to rent out two of these houses."

"The kitchen is shared." Ruan Mengmeng muttered, "Can we make another kitchen?"

The man glanced at Ruan Mengmeng and said, "It's okay to build another kitchen, but it can only be a small one. My yard doesn't have much space, and if you want to do it, you have to pay for it yourself."

"How do you rent it and how much money does it cost?"

"How many sets do you want to rent?"

"One set is enough."

"One set, three silver coins a month, empty house."

"Okay, then let's sign the lease."

"Are you going to rent it now?"

Ruan Mengmeng nodded, "Of course, we've already decided to rent. Of course, it's better to sign the contract now. We plan to move here tomorrow."

"Well, I'll take me to sign the lease, and then show you the house."

"it is good."

After finishing this work, when I got home, it was completely dark.

The father and daughter went home in the dark.

After arriving home, I told Liu He and the others about this matter, and the family packed up their things that night, rented a bullock cart early the next morning, and moved all their things away from home.

"We are the only ones left in this family now." Zhao Meifeng and Ruan Xiong watched them move away and sent them away, Ruan Xiong sighed with a complicated expression.

Zhao Meifeng didn't say anything.

Ruan Xiong frowned and said, "When are you going to ask the boss's family to borrow money?"

"Have I not found out where they went yet?" Zhao Meifeng patted her clothes impatiently.

Ruan Xiong sighed heavily, "Now I can't borrow money from the second brother, and I can't find the boss, so there is nothing I can do about Sanwu."

Zhao Meifeng muttered secretly, and said, "Why don't we borrow usury too?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Ruan Xiong stared, "How dare you borrow loan sharks? How can we afford it? It's fine to borrow 100 taels of silver, but we old couple will have to pay for their lives if we don't."

Zhao Meifeng dared to mention this matter, so she naturally had an idea, she said slowly, "We haven't come out yet, don't we still have two sons?"

"The two sons can't watch us being forced to death by loan sharks, can they?"

Ruan Xiong said angrily, "Now the second brother's family already owes so much usury money, and they can't take care of it themselves. How can they have time to care about our life and death?"

"Since ancient times, filial piety has always been the first priority. They can ignore themselves, but they can't ignore their parents. Could they just watch us being forced to death, and they would be indifferent? They will help us no matter what?"

Ruan Xiong shook his sleeves and said, "Aren't you cheating the second family? Everyone can't find it. If something happens to us, the second family will have to bear it."

"Well, I won't be working today. I'll go to find out where the old people live. I must find them. If I can find them, I will mention the matter of borrowing money. If they don't borrow money, we will borrow usury. What? ?”

Ruan Xiong didn't have an idea now, and nodded upon hearing this, "It's up to you."

Zhao Meifeng narrowed her eyes, and now she went to find out where Ruan Dawu's family was.

Finally, hard work paid off, Zhao Meifeng inquired for two whole days, and actually let her inquire about the whereabouts of Ruan Dawu's family.

She inquired about it on the first night, so she didn't go to Ruan Dawu and the others that day, but only on the third morning.

Because she was not sure about the location, Zhao Meifeng searched tentatively all morning, and finally let her find the house where Ruan Sanwu's family lived.

Outside the house, Zhao Meifeng glanced into the house and saw Ruan Dawu doing some work in the house.

"Da Wu." Zhao Meifeng immediately raised a smile, stepped over the door and walked inside.

Ruan Dawu looked up, saw that it was Zhao Meifeng, and responded calmly.

Zhao Meifeng saw that he was not very enthusiastic, but still smiled, "Da Wu, are you doing something?"

Ruan Dawu still responded calmly.

Zhao Meifeng asked again, "What are you doing?"

"I've done some small business in my house, and I'm starting to make preparations now." Ruan Dawu still looked cold.

Zhao Meifeng said softly, "Da Wu, mother came to see you today, because I have something to tell you."

Ruan Dawu narrowed his eyes, and said in a calm voice, "What's the matter, mother."

"Mother wants to borrow some money from you."

This was just out of my mouth, and before I said anything else, Ruan Dawu directly rejected it, "No."

Zhao Meifeng's face froze, and she said, "Mother hasn't said anything yet, you refused so quickly?"

Ruan Dawu looked at the vegetable leaves in his hands, and said calmly, "Nothing happened."

Zhao Meifeng gritted her teeth and said, "Mother is asking you to borrow it, but not asking you to ask for it. Do you need to directly refuse?"

Ruan Dawu was a little annoyed, and looked at Zhao Meifeng and said, "I don't have any, whether I want to borrow it or ask for it. Since I don't have one, what should I say if I don't refuse? I'll say no when Mother makes it clear. Isn't it just a waste of time for Mother?" At that time, mother should blame me for not telling you in advance."

"You..." Zhao Meifeng choked on his words for a long time and couldn't speak out.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Meifeng said, "See if you can find a way to give some money to Mother, Mother really needs this money."

"I can't come out." Ruan Dawu spoke directly again.

Zhao Meifeng said angrily, "You haven't even tried, why can't you help?"

Ruan Dawu laughed and said, "Mother, don't you have a clue in your mind? I just asked for 500 taels of silver more than a month ago, and now I haven't filled in the money. You asked me to borrow it again. Where did I get the money?" If you think silver is so easy to borrow, you can borrow it from others, why do you ask me?"

Zhao Meifeng was trembling with anger, "You...wow you, it's only been so long since we separated, don't you think I'm your mother?"

"I still treat you as a mother, otherwise why would I call you a mother?" Ruan Dawu said calmly.

Zhao Meifeng gritted her teeth and trembled all over.

"Are you planning to piss your mother off?"

"If mother is really mad, I'm afraid I won't even be able to buy a coffin."

"You..." Zhao Meifeng's eyes turned white with anger, as if she was about to faint.

Seeing her like this, Ruan Dawu pulled his lower lip, ignored her, and still let her be angry.
