CHAPTER 460: CHAPTER 460: I’M NOT FAMILIAR WITH YOU

Gu Lingling didn’t know that her future mother-in-law might come to Qin City.

She had sent out the marinated meat and vegetables, a big package, which cost quite a bit of money.

"Who are you sending stuff to?" She just turned around and saw Liu Qiao Lian mysteriously trying to peek at the slip in her hand.

Gu Lingling put away the slip and nodded distantly, "You came to send something too?"

She finished speaking and walked away.

She hadn’t taken two steps before Liu Qiao Lian grabbed her, "That... Lingling..."

Lingling?

Since when did they become so familiar?

"Mr. Liu, you better watch your kid." Gu Lingling shook off her arm. This woman, seriously, the kid was picking up dirty things off the ground and putting them in his mouth, and she didn’t care.

Why is she grabbing her?

"Can you lend me some money?" Liu Qiao Lian said pitifully, "I just wanted to send some stuff home and some jerk stole my money."

"Well... I can’t help you with that." Gu Lingling said awkwardly, "You saw it too, I just sent a lot of stuff. I’ve spent all my money."

"Then tell that comrade to send less and spare me some money." Liu Qiao Lian hurriedly said.

Gu Lingling, "..."

The nerve of her, who does she think she is.

"Sorry, that’s not possible." Gu Lingling shook her head, "You better hurry back, you can send it tomorrow too."

Anyway, there’s still some time before the end of the year, and the post office is always open.

"Why... why won’t you help in a crisis?" Liu Qiao Lian clung to Gu Lingling, not letting go, "Just lend me a few dollars."

A few dollars?

Does she think Gu Lingling’s money grows on trees?

Not to mention whether she has any money on her, but why should she lend it to Liu Qiao Lian? Just because they’ve met a few times?

Did Liu Qiao Lian forget how she bullied her with Liu Xiaoqin last year during the couplets writing?

Besides, she really doesn’t have any money left.

The pickled vegetables and meat are heavy, sending such a big package, she nearly ran out of money.

"Sorry, I don’t know you well, and I don’t have any money." Gu Lingling frowned looking at the dirty child on the ground, feeling even more helpless.

Having a mother like that, she really didn’t know what to say.

You say they’re poor? In these times, few families are rich, everyone’s poor.

But you can’t be sloppy just because you’re poor, right?

She’s seen Liu Qiao Lian a few times in the army, and never once had she seen her and her two kids tidy. They were always dirty, the kids often had snot hanging down.

The cuffs of the family’s clothes were black and shiny, from wiping snot on them.

"How come you’re out of money? I saw you had money in your pocket just now," Liu Qiao Lian pointed at Gu Lingling’s pocket, "the change that comrade gave you."

Gu Lingling didn’t know what to say, she laughed and shook her head, she’d been watched all along.

"The change was thirty cents." Gu Lingling sneered, "You want to borrow a few dollars, I naturally don’t have it."

"Thirty cents will do." Liu Qiao Lian said awkwardly.

If she’d known, she would’ve asked for less earlier.

"But why should I lend you?" Gu Lingling said plainly, "Comrade Liu Qiao Lian, at most I only know who you are."

"You... I’m not saying I won’t pay you back, you know where my house is, right?" It’s true, she planned to borrow a few cents if she could, it didn’t matter since only the two of them knew today.

When the time comes, she’ll just pretend to forget.
