Lu Zhiran sat in a chair and drank tea quietly.

Zuozuo didn't see Zhang's embarrassment.

Zhang looked at Lu Zhiran on the left, then looked at Fu Yuzhang on the right who was sitting on a chair beside her and looking up at the ceiling.

She was feeling very nervous. She had originally thought of secretly finding Lu Zhiran early in the morning to discuss borrowing money.

After all, it was possible that Lu Zhiran knew that she was coming to borrow money, so he left early and avoided her.

Zhang had a good idea. If she got up early, Lu Zhiran would not be able to escape from her.

But I didn’t expect that I came too early. Fu Yuzhang hasn’t left yet?

Besides, isn’t this his son who usually hates women’s gossip? Why doesn’t he leave?

Zhang was extremely sad and helpless!

How could she know that she had arrived and interrupted her son's good thing, and now Fu Yuzhang was thinking about waiting for Zhang and continuing what he had just done!

So how could he leave?

While drinking hot tea, I flipped through the account book. Even if I couldn't understand it, I had to keep reading.

I just can't leave.

Zhang sat on the chair, in a dilemma for a moment.

If she didn't borrow money from Lu Zhiran, the debt collectors had told her that if she couldn't come up with 1,000 taels of gold within three days, they would go directly to the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion and ask the old lady to pay the money for her.

Zhang secretly glanced at Lu Zhiran.

Lu Zhiran was busy calculating the accounts, looking very busy, as if she would wait until the end of time if she didn't say anything.

Zhang coughed twice, diverting Lu Zhiran's attention to herself. She smiled awkwardly, and her whole body was a little stiff: "Zhiran, actually, I came here this time to talk to you about something."

Lu Zhiran put down the work in his hands and looked at Zhang gently, "Mother, please speak."

Zhang looked at Fu Yuzhang who was sitting next to her and hesitated for a moment.

Finally, he spoke, "Zhi Ran, you know I'm a little short of money recently, I want to borrow some money from you to make ends meet."

When Lu Zhiran heard this, she did not show any surprise, she just smiled and nodded lightly.

"Mother, I understand. How much do you need?"

Zhang didn't expect Lu Zhiran to agree so readily, and she felt relieved.

Looking at Lu Zhiran's expression, he seemed to have decided to pay off her gambling debts.

Just when Zhang was happy, she wanted to secretly tell Fu Yuzhang the number without letting him find out.

Fu Yuzhang was shocked when he heard that Zhang came to borrow money.

Suddenly I became annoyed.

"Mother, you came to borrow money from Zhiran? What are you going to use the money for?"

"Besides, didn't I just give you this month's salary? You gambled it all away so quickly!"

Fu Yuzhang spoke in a very aggressive tone. He had been full of resentment towards Zhang for gambling every day.

Now Zhang came to borrow money from Lu Zhiran because she lost money in gambling.

How can he not be angry?

Zhang was a little embarrassed by what her son said. She glared at Fu Yuzhang in anger and said, "I'm your mother. Why do you care what I do with this money?"

"Besides, I'm not borrowing money from you. I'm borrowing money from my daughter-in-law. So please stop interfering!"

Fu Yuzhang frowned at what Zhang said. He had a very hot temper.

When he heard Zhang say that, he slammed the table.

She stood up and said, "Mother, how can you say that? Since she married into our family, she is a member of our Fu family."

"Her money is also the money of this family. You can't just borrow it whenever you want!"

Zhang didn't expect her son to get so angry with her because of Lu Zhiran.

She was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed at Fu Yuzhang's nose and cursed, "You unfilial son! How dare you talk to me like this for a woman!"

"Do you still see me as your mother?"

Fu Yuzhang was so furious at Zhang's scolding that he was about to retort but was stopped by Lu Zhiran.

Lu Zhiran looked at Zhang and said calmly, "Mother, don't be angry. Yuzhang said this because he is worried about the family's financial situation."

"If you really need money, you can tell me and I will try my best to find a way."

Seeing that Lu Zhiran was so sensible, Zhang's anger subsided a lot.

And, the most important thing is.

After hearing what Lu Zhiran said, Zhang knew that Lu Zhiran would take care of her gambling debts.

Thinking of how much money Lu Zhiran had spent on her, Zhang felt embarrassed to continue to embarrass Lu Zhiran.

She sighed and said, "Zhiran, mother knows you are a good child. But mother really has no choice this time, so I spoke to you."

"If I don't pay back my gambling debts, those people will come to my house to make trouble."

"What's more, yesterday..."

"You understand the situation."

There were many things Zhang didn't dare to say in front of Fu Yuzhang.

But she knew that as long as she mentioned it, Lu Zhiran would understand it all.

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhiran frowned.

Gambling is a bottomless pit. Once you get addicted, it is difficult to quit.

After paying it off this time, there might be a next time!

That’s all, take it one step at a time.

Let's go through the money she has on hand first.

If Zhang continues to have bad habits and continues to gamble and accumulate gambling debts, she will be asking for trouble.

Lu Zhiran stood there and thought for a while, then said to Zhang: "Mother, I can give you some money for emergency. Let's go to the study and talk about it in detail!"

"well."

When Zhang heard Lu Zhiran say this, she thought that she was really going to help her deal with her gambling debts. She was so happy that she followed Lu Zhiran happily.

Seeing that Lu Zhiran really wanted to take care of Zhang's mess.

Fu Yuzhang hurriedly grabbed Lu Zhiran.

"Zhi Ran, you have to think carefully. Once you get involved in this mess, it will be difficult to get out of it in the future."

Fu Yuzhang looked at Lu Zhiran worriedly. He knew very well that Zhang’s gambling addiction was difficult to change, and he also understood that once he was involved in such a vortex, he would probably get deeper and deeper.

Fu Yuzhang’s idea was, no matter how much gambling debt Zhang owed outside?

Just be cruel and don’t care!

Only in this way can Zhang learn his lesson completely.

Seeing that it was her own beloved son who jumped out to stop him in the end, Zhang was almost going crazy, for she was afraid that Lu Zhiran would go back on his word.

"Fu Yuzhang, what nonsense are you talking about? I am your mother. It would be fine if you didn't save me, but now you are holding your wife like this!"

"I raised you with so much hardship, and you are so cruel to me!"

"Woooooooo..."

Zhang’s acting is superb, the tears come easily.

Of course, it is also possible that she was really hurt by Fu Yuzhang, and Fu Yuzhang saw Zhang crying.

His originally tough expression softened a little.

"Mother, if you didn't gamble, there wouldn't be any of this mess!"

"Woooooooo..."

"Your grandmother has already cleaned up so many messes for you!"

"Woooooooo..."

Zhang just kept crying, so that Fu Yuzhang couldn't say anything even though he had so many complaints in his mind.
