Every Day I Sleep, My Soul Goes Out of My Body

Mi Li came to Duan Xiaoyu's new home early to help her prepare meals together.

"Have you written the IOU?" Mi Li asked.

"It's done." Duan Xiaoyu handed her the IOU.

After reading the rice grains carefully, she asked her to find inkpad and printed a fingerprint on it. This fingerprint should be left by the borrower. The rice grains helped her and forged the witness's signature. Anyway, it was fake. It was enough to fool Duan Xiaoyu's family.

After all, the loan amount is too large, and the IOU must be made more formal.

"When will your parents arrive?" Rice grains collected the IOU, turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Duan Xiaoyu followed her behind her like a tail: "If it goes well, it will be around 10 o'clock."

"Well, when you come to pick them up, I will help you entertain the guests." The rice grains rolled up their sleeves, took out the ingredients, and prepared for a big fight.

"Xiaomi, you are so kind." Duan Xiaoyu hugged her and was moved to a mess.

"Of course." Mi Li said proudly, "I can't help but like myself sometimes."

Duan Xiaoyu was amused by her.

At half past nine in the morning, Duan Xiaoyu received a call from his family and went out to pick up someone. The rice grains stay at home to receive invited friends.

Beautiful fruit platter, delicious snacks, fragrant scented tea, full of tea tables, nice looking, smelling and delicious.

Duan Xiaoyu didn't invite many friends, but five or six people, plus her parents and younger brother, just arranged a big table.

Duan Xiaoyu, who left at half past nine, did not come back until after 11 o'clock. Behind her were a middle-aged couple in their fifties and a hair-dyeing youth in their early twenties.

Seeing so many people sitting in the room, the three of them didn't have much surprise on their faces. Obviously Duan Xiaoyu had already said hello in advance.

They showed a lukewarm smile to everyone, and then began to look around, a fiery light flashing in their eyes. Especially Duan Xiaoyu's little brother, his expression seemed surprised and happy, as if he was thinking about something.

Mi Li's eyebrows jumped, and he always felt that the family was going to make trouble later.

Duan Xiaoyu introduced his parents and younger brother to his friends, and then helped them put their luggage into the guest room. They were also welcome, wandering around, looking inside and out, and commenting on it from time to time.

Duan Xiaoyu is like a girl, accompany them with low eyebrows.

"It's dinner, everyone come here." The rice grains greeted with the dishes.

"Thank you, chef." Everyone expressed their gratitude.

"You're welcome, sit down." The rice grains delivered the food to the table one by one, and the strong aroma of the meal filled the restaurant, making everyone's index fingers moved.

Duan's parents and brother Duan also sat down with Duan Xiaoyu, looking at the table full of delicious food, both greedy and distressed, secretly blame Duan Xiaoyu for spending money, don't you say it costs 500 for this meal?

The atmosphere at the dinner table was pretty good. Although Duan Xiaoyu's parents were present and everyone else was a little restrained, the delicious food made them feel very satisfied.

After eating and drinking, everyone did not stay for too long, and left one by one, leaving only the rice grains to help clean up the aftermath.

"Xiao Yu, when did you buy the house, why didn't you tell us?" Mom Duan finally asked this question that had been holding back for a long time.

"I bought it two months ago." Duan Xiaoyu glanced at the rice grains and said cautiously, "Recently, the house price has soared, so I borrowed some money from a friend and bought this apartment."

"I borrowed money to buy it? How much did I borrow?" Duan's mother asked again.

Duan Xiaoyu replied in a low voice: "3 million..."

"What? 3 million?" The three of the Duan family exclaimed at the same time. For their country folks whose deposits have never exceeded 100,000, 3 million is simply an astronomical figure.

"Xiao Yu, are you crazy?" Mother Duan screamed, "How can you pay back so much money in the future?"

Duan Xiaoyu shyly said: "I pay 70, 80,000 yuan every year, and I can always pay it off. Friends don't charge me interest, which is more cost-effective than a loan."

"Every year 70, 80,000, when are you going to return?" Mother Duan held her hand and said earnestly, "You are going to marry sooner or later, what are you going to do to buy a house? Listen to your mother, after a while, wait for the house price to rise. So I sold the house. Or I would give this house to your brother and let your brother pay it back with you."

Rice, who was busy in the kitchen, was amused secretly when he heard this. Give the house to the younger brother, and pay back the money together with the younger brother. What is the logic of the robber? It's as if Duan Xiaoyu made a profit.

She walked to the living room with tea, and the three of Duan's family only regarded her as a miscellaneous girl, and didn't even look at her.

"This is not good..." Duan Xiaoyu retorted with no confidence.

"Why is it bad?" Mother Duan said in an indisputable tone, "It is so decided, if you don't want to sell the house, then give the house to your brother. You are a girl, do you plan to use the house as a dowry in the future? Then our family What a loss?"

"Auntie." Mi Li suddenly interrupted, "The pre-marriage room belongs to Xiao Yu, not a dowry. It can be given to her children in the future."

"Child? It's been more than ten or twenty years." Duan's mother gave her a displeased look. "Who knows if anything will happen in the middle? The house is better for the man in the family."

Mi Li looked at Duan Xiaoyu's younger brother Duan Zhengrong: "Little brother Duan, what do you think?"

Just look at the names of the two people, and the difference in treatment should not be too obvious.

Duan Zhengrong tilted Erlang's legs, as if to say in a good manner: "I listen to my parents."

Mi Lie: This answer gives full marks, and it is a filial son.

"Zhengrong is well-behaved." Duan's mother gave him a satisfied look, and then reprimanded the rice grains again, "This is our housework, so don't talk too much to outsiders." Then she said to Duan Xiaoyu sternly, "Xiaoyu, this one. We'll take the charge for you. Let your brother get the house, and I will let him move in these few days."

"Sorry." Mi Li interrupted again, "I'm afraid you won't be the master of this matter."

"What do you mean?" The three of the Duan family looked at her at the same time.

"Xiao Yu's money was borrowed from me." Mi Li took out the loan slip from his pocket and shook it in front of the three of them.

The three people were shocked, but they didn't expect this little girl to be a local tyrant creditor.

"The house she bought can only belong to her. If she transfers the house without my consent, I have the right to take back the house and offset the loan. These are all written on the IOU."

The three of the Duan family looked stiff and stared at the IOU.

Dad Duan stretched out his hand to get it, and quickly collected the rice grains, and continued: "I borrowed money from Xiao Yu without interest because I believed in her and hoped that she would have a better life. If someone occupies her house, let her carry something on her back. A huge debt, then it doesn’t make any sense for me to lend her money."

Duan's mother said angrily: "Xiao Yu is Zhengrong's sister, what right do you have to prevent her from buying a house for her brother?"

"Of course she can buy a house for her younger brother." Mi Li smiled, "but I can't use the money I lent her. This money has only one effect, and that is to buy a house for her herself. No transfer or gift is allowed."

"Why are you so unreasonable?" Duan's mother was furious.

"My money, of course I said. You don't think that my money and this house are given away for nothing, do you? 3 million, Xiao Yu has to work for me to repay my debt for at least ten years. You are her parents. And brother, shouldn't she also support her?"

"Aid? She borrowed the money. What does it have to do with us?" Duan's mother said aside, "The house doesn't have a strong share, so let us pay her back?"

"Yeah, if Xiao Yu gave the house to his brother, then what reason do you have to let her and his brother pay the money together?" Mi Li replied with her words.

"She is an older sister, she should have taken care of her younger brother." Duan's mother said naturally.

"She has taken care of it for so many years, isn't that enough?" Mi Li replied politely, "Duan Xiao brother is also 21 years old, right? Any man with sound limbs and normal intelligence should learn to be independent at this age. Could it be that he Does my sister have to take care of him for the rest of my life? My daughter has the obligation to support her parents, but she has no obligation to support her younger brother."

The three of the Duan family were flushed with her sorrow, not because of shame, but because of anger.

Duan Xiaoyu shrank in the corner like a quail and said nothing.

"What does it mean to have no obligation to raise a younger brother? You don't talk nonsense here to separate the feelings of our family." Dad Duan scolded angrily.

"You are right, I shouldn't lend money to Xiaoyu." Mi Li looked at Duan Xiaoyu, "This incident was caused by the house. I didn't think it over well. Given your family's situation, I really can't afford 3 million. Debt, leaving this house will only increase your conflicts and burdens. Xiao Yu, why don't you transfer the house to me? That sum of money will be written off."

Duan Xiaoyu hasn't answered yet, Duan Zhengrong first objected: "No! The house will appreciate in the future, and it is not worthwhile to send it out now."

"Whether it rises or not, it's not something you can afford now." Rice grains mocked in the tone of a nouveau riche. "Besides, this is Xiaoyu's house. What to do with it is up to her."

"Sister, you must not pass the house to others." Duan Zhengrong quickly turned to Duan Xiaoyu.

"Yes." Mother Duan said, "After a few years the price of the house has risen, and if you sell it, you can make a small profit."

"Yes, the house must remain in your hands." Father Duan glanced at the rice grains defensively. "We can't afford to pay 3 million, but we can borrow chickens to lay eggs."

Rice grains: "..." Uncle wise.

Duan Xiaoyu said: "I can keep the house first, but..."

"No but!" Mother Duan made a final word, "The house is yours, no one wants to take it away!"

Rice grains: "..." Well, there is consciousness.

"That's okay." Duan Xiaoyu glanced at the rice grains gratefully and whispered, "Listen to you."

Seeing what Duan's mother wanted to say, Mi Li interrupted: "Xiao Yu, I helped you find a few roommates. The rent of 500 per month can help you relieve your stress a little bit. What do you think?" Mi Li deliberately rents the room. The report is low, so as not to raise the appetite of the Duan family too much.

Xiao Yu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

Mother Duan stuck a word in her throat, unable to speak for a long time.

She originally wanted Duan Zhengrong to live in, but she was blocked by rice grains in one sentence. The rent of 500 a month is also an income. There is no need for my son to come over to take up space. Just let Xiao Yu give them all the rent.

Thinking of the more than one thousand more income each month, Duan's mother felt very happy, not even seeing Duan Zhengrong's eyes on her frequently.

Duan Zhengrong was jealous of the conditions of the new house, but his parents did not cooperate, and finally gave up in anger.
