Chapter 767: The Difficulties of Being an Eldest Sister in the 90s (6)
Gu Qianjin was confused, but followed anyway.
"Go ahead," Gu Zhen said sincerely, "You have to find a way to give me some money, otherwise you won't be able to get married."
Gu Qianjin was stunned. How could that be possible? No one could get a penny from him!
Just reject it immediately.
Gu Zhen sighed: "Should we go to our relatives to borrow money instead of buying something to bring to their homes? If we bring gifts, they will at least see that we are sincere and may give us something!"
"The money at home is only enough for this month's living expenses. The factory is in a recession and wages have been delayed again and again. You know that!"
The original owner had never complained to his brothers and sisters before, this was the first time.
Gu Qianjin was completely bewildered and didn't know how to react.
He felt at ease because his elder sister was kind to them and made silent contributions, but when it came to her face, Gu Qianjin really didn't know how to respond.
After all, it's for his marriage.
Scratching his head, he decided to put it off for now: "I don't have any money either, let's think of a way."
As he said that, he was about to leave.
Gu Zhen grabbed him and said, "Don't leave yet. I have an idea. A lady who works in the same factory as us, her husband drives an excavator, and they are looking for someone to buy equipment together. If we buy shares, we can get a share of every project we complete in the future!"
Gu Qianjin exclaimed "Ah" but did not doubt Gu Zhen. After all, his elder sister was honest and seldom did anything without being sure. Since she said so, it must be true.
But without any dowry, how can I invest?
Gu Zhen tried to find a solution for him, "Don't you have a good friend who is quite rich? Why don't you borrow some from him?"
Gu Qianjin has a bad friend who is a private lender and his methods are quite ruthless. In the later part of the original plot, Gu Qianjin often asked this person for money.
If you can’t pay it back, your hands and feet will be cut off.
Gu Qianjin knew it himself, and hesitantly said, "Sister, if you want to borrow it, just go and borrow it yourself."
As expected, he had a smooth and unyielding personality. He didn't get involved at all. Gu Zhen was not in a hurry either. He thought that if he didn't lend it to her now, she would lend it to him sooner or later.
Gu Qianjin was quite puzzled: "Didn't you tell me not to deal with them before? What happened today? You keep asking for money."
"It's all because of you that you're worried about your marriage," Gu Zhen sighed, "Forget it, I'll tell Lanying the truth now. Our family doesn't have the financial resources. Don't try to be nice, or she won't be able to live a good life after marrying in, and then she'll make trouble with us!"
Gu Zhen pretended to go out.
Gu Qianjin suddenly became anxious. What was wrong with his sister today? Why was she talking so much?
What nonsense is he talking about? He finally found such a confused wife. If she runs away in anger, where can he find another one?
"Okay, okay, I'll give you some first. You can buy some gifts and go find your uncle and the others. As for the excavator matter, wait a little while. I'll ask around first."
Gu Zhen was not afraid of his asking questions and happily took the stack of money from her brother.
It looked thick, but after counting it, it was only about fifty yuan.
She put all the money in her pocket, not caring about the small amount, and sent Gu Qianjin and Ma Lanying away with a smile on her face.
The two of them rode their bikes outside. Ma Lanying pinched Gu Qianjin's waist and said, "What did your sister say to you? You're so sneaky."
"Nothing, just tell me to take good care of you."
Ma Lanying didn't believe it: "Stop lying to me! Tell me now!"
Gu Qianjin had no choice but to say, "Just say you want to partner with someone to buy an excavator and earn a share of the profits in the future. I don't know if it's reliable."
He said it casually, but he didn't expect Ma Lanying to pat him on the back and think it was feasible.
"My eldest cousin from my aunt's family does this, but his excavator was bought with money from his friends, and now my brother has to pay his salary every month."
Ma Lanying's aunt was a stepmother, and her cousin was not her biological son. The whole family pooled money to buy an excavator, and the cousin had to pay a share of the money he earned.
After hearing what she said, Gu Qianjin felt that it seemed like a good idea.
"To cooperate with outsiders, we need to sign a contract. I'll talk to my sister about this. I'm sure she can do it!"
There are so many projects now, such as repairing and building houses, and the government also carries out engineering projects. More and more people are starting private contracting businesses, which are definitely profitable.
Gu Qianjin suddenly became excited and pedaled hard a few times.
The two of them had a meal of meat noodles in a noodle restaurant. Gu Qianjin coaxed Ma Lanying to pay the bill, and then used sweet words to take her to a video hall.
The guy in the video room knew Gu Qianjin. He smiled slyly when he saw them coming. He gave them a wink, and Gu Qianjin put his arm around Ma Lanying and walked into another room.
He even lied to her that he had a new movie.
Ma Lanying had been fooled by him before, so she rolled her eyes and followed him reluctantly.
At this time in the Gu family, Gu Manman was acting like a spoiled brat.
She pestered Gu Zhen and said, "Sister! Give me some money! I have made an appointment with my girlfriends to go to karaoke tonight! It's my treat, and it's so embarrassing if I don't have any money!"
Gu Zhen lay on the sofa watching TV, undisturbed at all.
"I have no money. I'll save it for your second brother to get married. From now on, you are not allowed to buy new clothes or go out to play. Just find a class to attend and make money for your brother!"
"This is the responsibility of the women in our Gu family!" Gu Zhen said confidently.
After all, the original owner used to say this often, but Gu Manman didn't take it seriously. What era is it now? Men and women are the same, and the country's family planning policy is so strict, but her sister is still thinking in the same way.
You deserve to be bullied every day!
"Sister, my brother doesn't need this much to get married, can you just consider it as lending it to me?"
"I promise! I'll find a job tomorrow!"
Gu Zhen shook her head. "I won't lend it to you. All the money in our family belongs to your brother. I have no say."
Gu Manman: “…”
She stood up angrily, with an expression that looked like she wanted to eat someone. The girl was so young and loved dressing up. She should have been lively and bright, but she looked so cunning.
This Gu Manman is not much less vicious than Gu Qianjin.
A lot of bad ideas in the original plot were from her, such as finding a partner for the eldest sister in exchange for the bride price, and attacking her stupid brother-in-law.
He also often sowed discord, flattered Ma Lanying, and joined forces with her to bully his elder sister.
The fact that Gu Zhen could resist beating up her two younger brothers and sisters now was all because of her good manners.
It’s okay, let’s take our time.
She just lay there calmly and refused to pay.
Gu Manman didn't want to embarrass herself in front of her younger sisters, so she simply started searching the house. There were only a few places where her eldest sister hid the money, and she didn't believe that there was not a penny in the house!
But she searched for a long time and found nothing.
Gu Zhen had already kept the money close to her body when Gu Manman was putting on makeup.
Wait until tomorrow and use the money to make money!
Gu Manman couldn't find it and was so angry that she kept pacing around the room.
"Sister, can you bear to watch me lose face? Don't you love me the most, wuwuwu!"
If hard methods don't work, try soft methods. Gu Manman rushed over and hugged Gu Zhen and cried. Usually, whenever she shed tears, her elder sister would definitely feel distressed and would rather starve herself than not satisfy their needs.
But today, the main point is that I won’t be influenced by either soft or hard tactics.
Gu Zhen pushed the person away without mercy. There was no room for negotiation on this matter.
Gu Manman had no choice but to walk away with a sad face.
She stopped when she passed the video room and saw her second brother's bicycle.
The more Gu Manman thought about it, the angrier she became. Why did her second brother have money to watch the video?
She rushed in angrily, but the gatekeeper stopped her and refused to let her in unless she gave him money. Gu Manman then shouted at Gu Qianjin from outside.
Not long after, Gu Qianjin really came out, not because he heard the noise, but because he had finished the job. He walked out holding Ma Lanying in his arms, looking refreshed.
He was still puzzled when he saw his sister at the door.
Gu Manman sneered and decided to save some face for her second brother. She waved her hand and signaled him to go aside.
Gu Qianjin was in a good mood, so he went over and asked, "Why are you looking for me? Can't you see I'm having fun with your sister-in-law?"
"Give me some money, brother," Gu Manman spread her hands, "otherwise I will tell my sister-in-law that you don't have the money to marry her and you have to rely on me to sell my blood!"
Gu Qianjin's eyes turned cold and he stared at his sister. Gu Manman shuddered in the middle of summer but did not give in.
The brother and sister used to be on the same front, but today they are fighting.
In the end, it was Gu Qianjin who gave in first, but he had no money, so he could only go back and beg Ma Lanying in a nice way.
Ma Lanying was unwilling, but could not resist her boyfriend's pestering, so she took out ten yuan with a stern face.
Gu Manman didn't think the money was too little. She called her sister-in-law sweetly and ran away happily with the money.
Ma Lanying watched her leaving and suddenly thought, is it really good to marry into this family?
Why do both my sister-in-law and my younger sister-in-law seem a little abnormal?
