Free Web NovelChapter 486: Chapter 486: Vicious Mother-in-Law 32
"I know, this past half year, Mom wanted you and Third Brother to hand over your salary, and you couldn’t save any money. But, you... you can borrow from your family. As long as you can help me borrow this money, I promise I’ll definitely repay it in the future, I won’t go back on my word."
Whether to repay or not, we’ll talk about that later.
Ma Xiangling just wants to get through the current difficulty.
With the wedding day just a few days away, if she can’t get the money to buy some dowry, she won’t have a good life.
Not taking a penny of dowry to her in-laws, she can imagine how the in-laws will look down on her.
Wang Yingying was gritting her teeth in anger.
The sister-in-law was right. If the sister-in-law marries into the Han Family with nothing at all, Director Han will surely resent her. He might even make things difficult for her since she was the one who actively arranged this match.
That Director Han, who looks refined and cultured on the outside, is actually a sinister and cunning person.
In the supply and sales cooperative, there are two directors. As the saying goes, "Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain." Though the two directors usually maintain appearances, they are actually incompatible, and often make things difficult for each other.
The other Director Zhang has suffered many losses because of Director Han.
Director Han is the most insidious.
The reason Wang Yingying introduced her sister-in-law to Director Han initially was to avoid having Director Han make things difficult for her, but now this match has put her in a difficult position.
She can’t advance.
She definitely can’t retreat.
Wang Yingying could only say hatefully, "Alright, stop crying. I’ll try to help you borrow, but you have to give me an IOU, and you must repay this money within a year. Otherwise, I’m not afraid of burning bridges, and no one will have a good life."
Ma Xiangling naturally nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Third Sister-in-law."
Wang Yingying certainly didn’t go to borrow the money. Three days later, she gave Ma Xiangling the three hundred she had saved, and Ma Xiangling also wrote her an IOU.
Because the amount wasn’t much and there were no vouchers, Wang Yingying went everywhere to use her connections, and managed to buy an 80% new bicycle for 80 yuan, a 90% new watch for 60 yuan, and an 80% new sewing machine for 100 yuan.
The total only came to 240 yuan.
With the remaining 60 yuan, Wang Yingying went to the supply and sales warehouse, spent half the day, and found two slightly flawed red double happiness quilt covers, two slightly flawed sheets, a pair of new pillowcases, and several pieces of flawed fabric.
Ma Laosan also went to the black market and bought her two brand-new cotton quilts.
Wang Yingying stayed up for three nights, sewing the cotton quilts with the quilt covers and sheets, and embroidered large red flowers over the flaws.
Soon, it was the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Ma Xiangling put on a red wool coat, black straight pants, new cotton leather boots bought last year, her hair styled into a bun with two small red flowers pinned on it.
Wang Yingying also helped her with makeup: thin eyebrows, red lips, rosy cheeks.
Ma Xiangling was already quite beautiful; she hadn’t gone to work for half a month, taking care of her skin at home, used up a whole bottle of face cream, her skin was indeed much fairer now. With this look, she instantly looked charming as a flower.
Wang Yingying joked, "My sister-in-law’s face will definitely make Director Han dizzy."
Qian Hongmei laughed, "Third Sister-in-law, why are you still calling him Director Han? You should call him Young Brother-in-law."
"Hahaha... A slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue, I’ll definitely change in the future, I’ll be an elder in front of Young Brother-in-law." Wang Yingying laughed so much that her mouth reached the back of her ear.
