Reborn in the 80s and Remarrying an Officer, Let the Ungrateful Cry! novel Chapter 196

Chapter 196: Chapter 196: Can You Lend Me 5 Yuan?

Fu Mingxue was shocked.

’She can’t even come up with five yuan? Doesn’t her husband get a stipend every month?’

’Could it be that he doesn’t give her a single cent?’

Cui Meihong’s face flushed with shame. Fu Mingxue’s stare made her deeply uncomfortable and pained.

"I-I’ll pay you back. Wait until my husband gets home. He’s been away on a mission these past few days. I... I need to buy medicine for my little girl. Her face got burned yesterday, and it’s starting to blister today."

Hearing this, Fu Mingxue was rendered utterly speechless.

’I really don’t know what to say to her.’

’Her daughter is so young, and she got burned, but she didn’t take her to be seen yesterday? She waited until it blistered today to go?’

’Is there something seriously wrong with her?’

She took five yuan from her pocket and handed it over.

"Thank you, thank you!" Cui Meihong said hurriedly as she took the money.

She gave Fu Mingxue a nod and then quickly ran home.

Just then, Mrs. Fu came out.

She had apparently seen the exchange. "You lent her money?"

Fu Mingxue nodded. "Yes, five yuan. It was mainly for the child’s sake."

If it were an adult who needed money, even for food, she wouldn’t have been willing to lend it.

After all, if things were that difficult, they could always seek help from the management office of the family compound.

But this was to get the little girl’s face treated. She felt the child was quite pitiful.

’Besides, it’s not like I’m short on five yuan.’

’What’s more, she was confident she’d get the five yuan back.’

Mrs. Fu sighed. "That poor child."

Having a grandmother who favors boys over girls so heavily... it’s just awful.

But this was a common phenomenon in this era. Many families favored sons over daughters.

Fu Mingxue went back inside to eat her breakfast. After the delay, it was already getting cold.
