"Fang Zhiqiang, what did you just say? You have been in Shanghai for so long, eating and living in my house, and I serve you every day, and you just want to undermine me like this?" Liu Yan was angry.

"Sister Liu Yan, don't listen to him, tell me, what's the matter?" Li Xiaoxiao pulled Liu Yan and asked.

"That's it, Xiaoxiao, I heard that you have a house and a car, right?" Liu Yan stammered, looking quite embarrassed.

"No, no, no, don't listen to his nonsense. The house is... rented by me, and the car belongs to my friend. I really have no money. I am definitely not the rich person he said. I am just an ordinary employee working in the company." Li Xiaoxiao said quickly when she heard this. She was afraid that Fang Zhiqiang and the others thought she was a rich person, so she explained quickly and was a little flustered.

As soon as Li Xiaoxiao said it, she suppressed Liu Yan's next words, which was very embarrassing.

"Hahaha, did you see that, I'm not stupid at all. I guess you just wanted to borrow money, so you told me in advance." Fang Zhiqiang burst into laughter after hearing this.

"Fang Zhiqiang, who wants to borrow money, you...you...repay me the money you borrowed, give it back to me." Liu Yan looked at Fang Zhiqiang's smile and became angry with embarrassment.

"What money? When did I lend you money? Is there an IOU? I won't accept the debt without an IOU."

"Fang Zhiqiang..."

"Um...Sister Liu Yan, you...are you borrowing money from me? How much do you want to borrow? I'll go to the bank to get it later." Li Xiaoxiao finally realized what she was doing.

"No, sister, I'm not asking you to borrow money, I..." Liu Yan hesitated again.

"Then what is it? As long as I can help you, I will definitely help you, just tell me." Li Xiaoxiao was very enthusiastic, and she also realized that she seemed to have said the wrong thing just now.

　"Oh, let me tell you the truth. There are no outsiders anyway, so just be embarrassed. The thing is like this, as for me, I have been together with Lao Bi for so many years. In the blink of an eye, we are no longer young. We are both twenty-six years old. This age is not too old, but it is not too young. Many people of the same age have children who are already familiar with soy sauce, but we are both together. Much better, we haven’t even gotten married. It’s not that we don’t want to get married, but we really have no money. We have been living in Shanghai for so many years, and our salary is neither high nor low, but it can’t afford the prices and housing prices in Shanghai, let alone We bought a house here, had food and supplies, and there was not much money left in our pockets. Originally, the idea of ​​both of us was to work hard to make money, then pay a down payment, buy a house in Shanghai, and then get married. But after so many years, This idea is becoming more and more distant. I can no longer afford a house, but I am getting older and older. I am already twenty-seven years old, and I will turn thirty in a blink of an eye. What do you think?What does a woman become after thirty? So I think we can’t put off getting married any longer. Regardless of whether we have a house or not, and whether we have money or not, we still have to get married. As for me, I called my parents and told them that we were getting married. Of course, my parents had known for a long time that we were together. Last year, Lao Bi even stayed with me at our house. years. My dad and mom were very happy when they heard that we were getting married. Especially my mom, who told me directly that she and my dad would come to Shanghai in a few days to take a serious look at this uncle. They and Lao Bi actually We are not familiar with each other, but I stayed at home for three days during the Chinese New Year last year, and also came to discuss marriage with me in person. "Liu Yan said slowly.

"That's a good thing. Sister Liu Yan, Brother Chun, I congratulate you in advance on your happy marriage. You must give me a ticket when you hold the wedding. Give me the invitation. "Li Xiaoxiao said happily.

"In my opinion, things are not that simple. You can tell by looking at the faces of these two people. If they are yellow and yellow, they will definitely not be a good thing like getting married. . "Fang Zhiqiang lit a cigarette and interrupted.

"Qiangzi, why don't you say a good word from your mouth? "Liu Yan rolled her eyes at Fang Zhiqiang, and then continued to say to Li Xiaoxiao: "But the problem is, when he went to my house last year, in order to show face in front of a lot of relatives in our family, this guy directly said that he was famous in Shanghai. My mother was happy to hear that there was a car in the house, but now the problem came, my father and mother are here this time, where can I get a house and a car for them? I know my mother's fiery temper very well. If I knew that Lao Bi had lied to her, I would definitely not get married, and he would never come back to our home again. "

"Huh? Lao Bi, did you even lie to your mother-in-law? "When Fang Zhiqiang heard this, his eyes widened. He really didn't hear much about such weird things.

Bi Luochun looked embarrassed and said, "I can't help it either. You don’t know, I went to their house last year to celebrate the New Year, and we went to his house. As a result, his father and mother called a lot of relatives at home to wait for us, saying that they were visiting the new uncle, the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt. I just They surrounded me as soon as I entered, asking questions here and there. One asked me what I did at home, another asked me what my education level was, what kind of job I did in Shanghai, whether I had bought a house or a car. You said, with so many people there, and a new uncle coming to visit me, I can’t say that I don’t have a car or a house. Then it will not only be my face, but also Liu Yan’s face, and her parents’ face. Where to put your face? In order to maintain my appearance and pretend to be fat, I said that I bought a house and a car. I thought at the time, I was in Shanghai and their family was in Shaanxi. They were so far apart. Who knows whether what I said was true or false. If I had known that such a day would come, I would not have said such nonsense at that time. I regret it now. ”

“To be honest, I really don’t blame Lao Bi for this. If I didn’t say so at that time, I would have been really embarrassed. My mother is aHe is a very face-conscious person. If he hadn't said that, my mother would have kicked him out right then. "Liu Yan took over the words.

"You two passed that level at that time, but what about now? What should we do now? Where are you going to get an apartment for your parents and a car? Wait, wait, Liu Yan, you just asked Xiaoxiao, are you interested in Li Xiaoxiao’s house and car? "Fang Zhiqiang asked with a frown.

"Huh? what do you mean? "Li Xiaoxiao was a little confused by what Fang Zhiqiang said, and she couldn't figure it out.

Liu Yan gave Fang Zhiqiang a roll of her eyes again, then turned to Liu Yan and said: "Xiaoxiao, actually, I don't even have a sister. I'm embarrassed to say this, but we really have no choice. We have been together for so many years, and we have finally reached this point. There is really no choice. Now we are forced to go to the end. I want to ask you a favor, can you? ”
