Chapter 324: Three hundred twenty-three, stingy Chapter 324: Three hundred twenty-three, stingy Gu XueMin immediately had a bad premonition upon hearing this. “You didn’t come to ask me for money, did you?”

Mrs. Gu nodded, her face filled with bitterness. “Your dad had an accident and fell, and now we urgently need money. I’ve already borrowed from relatives and friends, but we are still short of twenty thousand yuan.”

“Twenty thousand yuan? Where would I get that much money? Why don’t you try to think of another solution and ask someone else?” Gu XueMin said indifferently. Let alone twenty thousand, he wouldn’t even take out two thousand; that was the hard-earned money that he had struggled to earn. Why should he give it to someone else?

“It’s your dad who’s hurt. No matter how stingy you are, you can’t just watch him unable to pay his hospital bills, can you?” Mrs. Gu cried as she looked at Gu XueMin. She knew her son was very stingy and getting even a penny from him was harder than reaching the heavens. If there was any other way, she wouldn’t have come to him.

Gu XueMin waved his hand impatiently, reached for Teacher Lin’s bag that had just been placed on the shoe cabinet, took out the wallet, and found only some change. He called out to Lin Xiu in the kitchen, “Lin Xiu, come out for a second.”

Lin Xiu’s hand trembled slightly as she heard Gu XueMin call her name, and the potato she was peeling slipped into the sink. “Com… coming…” She had heard everything her husband and mother-in-law had said. Given her husband’s character, he certainly wouldn’t take out any money.

“Why is there only this much money left in your wallet?” Gu XueMin asked with a stern face, pushing the wallet toward Lin Xiu. He gave Lin Xiu one thousand yuan every month for expenses. Although living costs were high, if one lived frugally, one thousand yuan was sufficient—at least it was definitely enough for him.

“I… I left it in my office,” Lin Xiu hadn’t expected her husband to find out so quickly.

“Go and get it now. My dad is waiting for the money,” Gu XueMin ordered.

“I… I… It would waste another four yuan in bus fare if I go to school now. How about tomorrow?” After much thought, Lin Xiu finally came up with an excuse. With Gu XueMin’s personality, he definitely wouldn’t want to spend that extra four yuan.
