C5 Xiao Family Birthday Party

However, after a few seconds, the palm he had expected did not land on his face.

Instead, he felt a warm hand wiping away the tears on her face.

Xiao Muxue's eyelashes trembled as she opened her eyes.

"Don't cry so much in the future, your crying appearance isn't good." Lin Yi reminded him expressionlessly. He was reluctant to hit Xiao Muxue.

You didn't look good when you cried?

Xiao Muxue's heart shuddered. She didn't know why, but at this moment, Lin Yi gave her a special feeling.

"Muxue, where's Faang Hao?" At this moment, Jiang Lan ran over in a hurry.

"Faang Hao left." Xiao Muxue quickly calmed down.

"Gone?"

Jiang Lan's eyes widened, "If he's gone, then who's going to pay that 500,000 RMB for your father's surgery?!"

"Mom, Lin Yi has already paid the surgery fee for dad's operation." Xiao Muxue said.

"This piece of trash has already been paid? Muxue, you aren't lying to your mother, right? How could this trash possibly take out five hundred thousand? " Jiang Lan looked at Lin Yi doubtfully. As a mother-in-law, she knew perfectly well how useless Lin Yi was.

Not to mention five hundred thousand, even five thousand was not enough.

"Mom, the payment form is here. If you don't believe me, look for yourself." Xiao Muxue felt a little helpless. Jiang Lan looked down on Lin Yi the most in this family. Jiang Lan had been causing trouble for Lin Yi every day for the past three years.

Jiang Lan snatched the payment slip from Xiao Muxue's hand and looked at it for a moment. Then, a look of disbelief appeared in her eyes.

This trash actually took out five hundred thousand!

"Where did you get five hundred thousand?" Jiang Lan couldn't help but ask. Xiao Muxue also shifted her gaze to Lin Yi. She also wanted to know this question. Lin Yi had been out for less than ten minutes.

Where did he get five hundred thousand in ten minutes?

"I borrowed it from a friend." Lin Yi had already thought of the answer to the question about how the money came to be.

Borrowing.

It could only be borrowed.

Lin Yi didn't intend to tell Xiao Muxue and Jiang Lan the truth.

The reason why the Lin Clan suddenly sought him out and offered him the position of successor was because there must be some kind of scheme behind it.

Before he figured out what the conspiracy was, Lin Yi would never reveal his relationship with the Lin Family.

"What kind of friend would lend you five hundred thousand?" Jiang Lan became more suspicious. Since Lin Yi was in the east, he didn't have many friends. If one were to talk about friends, he could only be the colleagues who sent take-outs along with Lin Yi.

However, how could a bunch of take-outs possibly take out five hundred thousand?

Even if it could be taken out, why would they lend it to Lin Yi?

Xiao Muxue also had the same doubts, but since Lin Yi didn't want to say more, she wouldn't ask.

"Mom, sell that house in the family later and take out 500,000 for Lin Yi." Lin Yi's monthly salary was only 5,000 yuan. If she didn't help, then Lin Yi wouldn't be able to afford the 500,000 yuan in his lifetime.

"What?!" Selling houses?! "

Hearing Xiao Muxue's words, Jiang Lan was instantly enraged.

"Impossible!" Jiang Lan screamed, "Let me tell you, Xiao Muxue, don't even think about it!"

"The house is going to sell. Where is our family? Sleeping on the street? "

"Mom, if you don't want to sell your house, do you want Lin Yi to pay back that 500,000 yuan alone?" Xiao Muxue frowned. The 500,000 yuan was borrowed to save Xiao Weiguo's life and not spent by Lin Yi himself, so it was only right for their family to pay it back.

"What's wrong with him alone?!"

Jiang Lan said confidently, "He borrowed the money, not me. Why should I sell my house to pay for him?"

Jiang Lan then shifted her gaze to Lin Yi: "Let me tell you, Lin Yi, that five hundred thousand is not even related to our family, you have to think of a way to pay it back yourself! If you can't return it, then get the hell out of the Xiao Family! "

"Mom, you're too much!"

Jiang Lan's attitude angered Xiao Muxue quite a bit. Lin Yi borrowed money in order to save Xiao Weiguo's life. Now that the money was spent, Jiang Lan could not accept it anymore. She left Lin Yi to bear the huge amount of the loan alone.

Lin Yi's salary was only five thousand yuan a month, what was he going to carry?

Seeing that Xiao Muxue was still going to argue with Jiang Lan, Lin Yi was a little touched, but at the same time, he also felt that something was off. "Alright, Muxue, stop talking. I'll find a way to borrow my friend's five hundred thousand dollars."

"Think of a way yourself? What can you think of for yourself? It was five hundred thousand, not fifty thousand! You won't even know how to return it in your entire life! " Xiao Muxue was a little angry. It was already this time, yet Lin Yi still insisted on making it difficult for her. What did she deserve? Did she not have any points in her heart?

With his salary of 5,000 yuan per month, even if he didn't eat or drink, he would have to save up for 10 years before he could pay back 500,000 yuan.

But would his friend wait ten years for him?

"Muxue, you don't need to worry about what I think. In short, I will pay you back that five hundred thousand yuan sooner or later. Don't worry …" Lin Yi felt a little helpless. He actually wanted to tell Xiao Muxue that he still had 995 million on him. However, he was afraid that if he were to speak of it, Xiao Muxue would treat him as a lunatic.

"Who's worried about you? "Don't think too highly of yourself." Xiao Muxue coldly turned her head to the side, looking as if she wanted to make a ruckus.

Lin Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, he didn't know what to do.

One night later, Xiao Weiguo's operation was completed without any surprises.

Lin Yi finally felt relieved.

However, the mother and daughter pair in the ward were frowning.

"The enameled blue and white porcelain cup I bought for your grandfather was shattered by your father's car accident yesterday."

"Tomorrow is your grandpa's birthday feast, but we can't go empty-handed, right?" Jiang Lan asked with a bitter face.

Initially, she had hoped that Xiao Weiguo's enameled blue and white porcelain cup would be able to bring glory to the Old Master during this year's birthday banquet.

However, everything went down the drain from the accident. Not only was Xiao Weiguo destroyed, even the several hundred thousand cups of enameled blue and white porcelain in the car were smashed to smithereens.

Xiao Muxue frowned, "Mom, we can just buy a gift for grandpa's birthday banquet. With dad having this incident, grandpa and the others should understand. Besides, we don't have much money left on us."

"No way!"

"Never buy a gift."

"The reason why the three of us have been ignored within the Xiao Family for the past few years is because we bought gifts for your grandfather too casually, and caused your grandfather to be displeased."

"If we still can't produce a proper gift this year, your grandfather will not give us a single cent at the end of the year when the family split the profits."

Within the Xiao Family, there was a trend of competition. After Xiao Qingfeng had taken control of the situation, this trend had developed to the extreme.

Every year, Xiao Qingfeng's birthday feast, Xiao Family's descendants, and distant relatives would rack their brains to present a gift to Xiao Qingfeng to cheer him on, hoping that Xiao Qingfeng would give them a bonus at the end of the year bonus.

Xiao Weiguo was an honest and dull person. He wasn't familiar with the affairs of the world and didn't understand these things.

Every time it was Xiao Qingfeng's birthday, he could not give any proper presents.

The consequence of not being able to give a proper present was that Xiao Weiguo had become a person who was at the edge of Xiao Family. The dividends he gets every year, was not even as much as the amount he gets from Xiao Family, a member of the younger generation.

"But, Mom, the amount of money we have now is less than 30,000 yuan. 30,000 yuan, we can't even buy a proper gift." Xiao Muxue smiled wryly. She understood everything Jiang Lan said, but giving gifts to the old man also required some capital.

Thirty thousand yuan was simply not enough to buy any kind of high-quality gift.

Even if it was the enamel blue and white porcelain that Xiao Weiguo had bought for a hundred thousand gold coins, it would only be considered as a beginner's gift in the old man's birthday feast.

"Since I can't buy it, I must find a way to buy it. This time, I must make your grandfather happy, otherwise, we won't be able to establish ourselves at Xiao Family." Jiang Lan gritted her teeth. With Xiao Weiguo in a car accident, their family's finances had all been cut off. If they didn't get the year-end bonus, then she and Xiao Muxue would probably have to go drink with Bei Feng.

"Fine."

Xiao Muxue kneaded her forehead awkwardly. Jiang Lan said it easily, but it was harder than ascending to the heavens.

"Why don't I think of a way?" At this moment, an unexpected voice sounded.

Xiao Muxue looked up and saw Lin Yi walking in.
