Chapter 194 Can I borrow some more money?
Today is Teachers' Day, but teachers don't have a holiday.
What's the point of this festival?
The sun was shining and it started to get hot after nine o'clock.
The little one didn't want to stay in the house, so Jiang Ning laid several mats on the lawn and took her outside to play. The sun in early autumn was not too scorching, and it was not too hot in the morning, which was just right for the little one to bask in the sun, which also promoted calcium absorption.
After ten o'clock, Feng Xue came out after cleaning the house.
She was wearing baggy trousers and her hair was uncombed.
Use a white hairband to tie it casually behind your head.
There is a sense of laziness in the silence.
When the little guy saw her, he immediately crawled over.
Feng Xue sat on the edge of the mat, supporting the little guy, her calm eyes full of tenderness.
Jiang Ning called out, "Sister."
Feng Xue looked over and asked with his eyes.
Jiang Ning patted his side and said, "Take off your shoes and sit here."
Feng Xue took off his shoes and went over to sit next to him.
Jiang Ning said: "Give me your hand."
Feng Xue stretched out his right hand and gestured.
It means asking him what he does.
Jiang Ning held her right hand, turned over her palm and examined it carefully.
Feng Xue's hands are narrow and slender, with a very good shape.
Her fingers were long and thin, and her nails were trimmed flush with the fingertips, just like Feng Yu's.
It doesn't look like there's much meat in it, but it feels very soft in the hand.
As Jiang Ning looked at him, he said, "Actually, I can read palms."
Feng Yu pursed his lips and wanted to laugh.
Jiang Ning said, "Don't laugh. Listen to my analysis. Look, this is the destiny line. Feng Yu's destiny line is very straight, without any forks or bends in the front. This means that Feng Yu will have a smooth life without any setbacks. But yours is different. Look, there are many forks at the beginning of your destiny line, and there are several bends here. This means that your first half of life will be very difficult, but the second half is straight, which means that your second half of life will be smoother. Don't you think so?"
Feng Xue pursed her lips, forced herself to suppress a smile and nodded.
Jiang Ning was quite happy, pointing to his palm and said, "Look again, there is a slash coming from here. This is the factor that changed your destiny. This slash is me. It is me who changed your life. Isn't everything right?"
Feng Xue couldn't bear it any longer and turned his head away.
He covered his mouth with his right hand and his shoulders twitched.
Jiang Ning rubbed her palms and said, "Changing your life starts now. Are you ready?"
Feng Xue tilted his head and pretended to listen attentively.
Jiang Ning continued, "Let's start by teaching you to speak. That's what I'm thinking. The surgery has to be done. Feng Yu and I don't want to see you unable to speak for the rest of your life. I will ask the best doctor to perform the surgery on you. Just like when Feng Yu gave birth, I will also go in and watch the doctor perform the surgery on you so that there won't be any accidents."
Feng Xue nodded first, then shook his head.
I haven't figured out the meaning yet.
Jiang Ning asked: "Do you want to talk?"
Feng Xue nodded and said, of course!
Who wants to be mute and unable to speak for the rest of their life?
Jiang Ning said, "That's right. Didn't the doctor say that the risk factor of your surgery is actually not high? Our family is not short of money, so we can hire the best doctor to perform the surgery on you. I will also monitor the whole process and absolutely no accidents will be allowed to occur."
Feng Xue didn't say anything and was still thinking.
Jiang Ning didn't urge her. He just watched the little girl lying on Feng Xue's legs and babbling.
It was a lot of fun.
I was so jealous that I also lay down like my daughter.
His head rested on Feng Xue's thigh.
Feng Xue raised his arms and looked down.
Jiang Ning looked up at her, and Feng Xue looked at him for three seconds.
Just turn your head away and look away.
Jiang Ning took her hand and said nothing.
Just hold her hand and look at the blue sky and white clouds.
I don’t know where my heart is going.
After a while, the ringing of a cell phone broke the silence.
Jiang Ning didn't get up either, but fumbled around a few times.
I picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from my secretary.
After a few words, Lu Jingwei asked his secretary to ask him if he had returned.
When I come back, I will take some time to go to the county.
The little guy crawled up when he heard the phone ringing. After watching him finish the call, he didn't know what was wrong with him, but he crawled over and pushed his head, as if not wanting him to rest his head on Feng Xue's legs, and kept babbling while pushing him.
"What are you doing!"
Jiang Ning glared at his daughter.
The little guy was very persistent and was still babbling and trying hard to push his head.
Jiang Ning had no choice but to sit up.
I feel like I'm wearing my cotton-padded jacket inside out, it's not snug.
Seeing that Feng Xue's hair was a little messy, he went back to the house and got a comb.
Come out and sit at the back to comb her hair.
This was not the first time she had done this job. On the way to LS, Feng Xue was sick, so Jiang Ning combed her hair. He did it very smoothly. After combing her smooth long hair, he tied it up again with a ribbon. The little girl looked at her curiously.
She crawled over, snatched the comb away, and sat next to him.
Grabbing Feng Xue's hair, she also wanted to comb her mother's hair.
It was almost half past eleven when Feng Yu came back from get off work.
Packed food from the cafeteria.
Feng Xue carried the little guy back to the house first, and Jiang Ning put away the mat.
Then the three of them ate around the dining table.
The little guy sat in the dining car, sucking on a bone with little meat on it.
Before Feng Yu was away, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
But after Feng Yu came back, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.
Jiang Ning was fine, but Feng Xue was a little afraid to look at Feng Yu.
After lunch, Feng Xue went to the second floor.
Jiang Ning and Feng Yu carried the little guy up to the third floor and coaxed him to sleep.
Feng Yu lay on the bed sideways and asked Jiang Ning: "Why is Sister still like this? Didn't you counsel her this morning?"
Jiang Ning said, "Of course not. I have been counseling her for the whole morning, but such a big change cannot be adapted to in a short time. You have to give her some time. Don't mention me, I think you have sacrificed too much, let alone me."
Feng Yu said: "It will be fine after a few days."
Jiang Ning nodded and said, "This is what I think. Let's persuade her again. After the school holiday after New Year's Day, we will take her to the United States for surgery. The sooner we do it, the faster she will recover. It's not good to delay it for too long."
Feng Yu nodded: "Sister has always been afraid of surgery. To be honest, I would be afraid too if it were me. Just thinking about having surgery on the brain makes my scalp numb. What if the surgery doesn't go well? Will I never wake up again?"
Jiang Ning said: "There are definitely risks, but they can be controlled to a minimum. I will ask someone to find the best doctors and take into account all possible accidents in advance. I will be on site and will not allow any accidents to happen."
Feng Yu said: "Then you can persuade her again. My persuasion is useless and cannot give her confidence. You can."
Jiang Ning nodded and said, "Leave it to me. I'll try to get this settled before I leave."
Feng Yu asked: "When are you going out?"
Jiang Ning said: "It depends on the situation. We will leave when the negotiations in Africa are concluded."
The two chatted for a while and the little one fell asleep first.
Feng Yu yawned and said, "I need to sleep for a while, too, otherwise I'll be too sleepy in the afternoon." Jiang Ning also slept for a while, but in fact he didn't fall asleep at all.
At two o'clock Feng Yu got up and went to work.
He also went out and visited the county.
Lu Jingwei just got to work and will have a meeting soon.
Only a dozen minutes.
The secretary made tea and went out.
After chatting about the Second Field for a while, Jiang Ning actually didn't worry much about the Second Field. Lu Jingwei knew some things better than him and cared about them more than he did. After all, the county was counting on the establishment of the Second Field to solve a series of historical problems.
Lu Jingwei asked Jiang Ning: "If you sell your shares, how much can you value them now?"
"Three billion should be enough."
Jiang Ning asked, "Is the county so anxious?"
Lu Jingwei said: "The debt is too heavy. Most of the fiscal revenue for a year goes to pay bank interest. If we can get rid of the burden, the county will be more relaxed and can devote more funds to improving people's livelihood."
Jiang Ning said: "It's not cost-effective now, but if we can hold on until next year, it will double."
Lu Jingwei nodded, thought for a while, and didn't say anything more. He asked, "How much assets do you have overseas?"
Jiang Ning said: "A lot."
"How much is a lot?"
"Beyond your imagination. Why are you asking that?"
Lu Jingwei said: "Just curious, you keep buying assets outside. Are you planning to go out?"
Jiang Ning shook his head: "Your concept is wrong. For me, the earth is a big village. It doesn't matter whether I go out or come back. Just like rich people buy houses in places with good environments, I buy land outside in the same way. I just want to buy more land and become a big landlord. When I get bored of staying at home, I will go to Australia to live for a few days. When I get bored of Australia, I will go to America or Africa to relax. I will go wherever I can feel comfortable."
Lu Jingwei asked: "I heard that your brother's child is going to study in Australia?"
Jiang Ning nodded: "The environment over there is better."
Lu Jingwei frowned and said, "Beian's environment is not good?"
Jiang Ning said: "Let me ask you a question."
Lu Jingwei said: "You say."
Jiang Ning asked: "Every man has a share of responsibility for the fate of his country. How do you understand this sentence?"
Lu Jingwei understood. As an idealist, he discussed this with Jiang Ning, who had crawled out of a pile of dead bodies. He knew what the result would be. Even if he disagreed with some things, he couldn't say them because he was sitting in that position.
Jiang Ning added: "Beian has changed a lot in the past two years. You will probably be recorded in the history of Bei'an. But wolves have to eat meat. Even if you are a wolf that only eats grass and not meat, you cannot change the instinct of other wolves to eat meat."
Lu Jingwei said: "There must be some light in the world. There has never been a lack of people in history who can light themselves up to illuminate others. I am not a lone traveler. I believe there must be other companions. Even if there are not now, there will be in the future."
“Perhaps you are right to insist.”
Jiang Ning nodded, and told Feng Yu about the school, saying, "It's fine on the surface now, but what about the root? You can force others to do things according to your ideas, but some things can't be changed."
Lu Jingwei was not surprised at all, as if he had expected something like this to happen. He said, "Just do your best and have a clear conscience. The rest will be left to time! Let's not talk about this anymore. Can you lend me some more money?"
Jiang Ning asked: "Private or public loan?"
Lu Jingwei said: "It's a government loan. I'm not buying a car or a house, so why would I borrow money for that?"
Jiang Ning said, "Private loans are fine. You don't need to write an IOU if you want to borrow 10 or 8 million. I'll lend it to you privately. Forget about public loans. You owe the farm so much money, and I don't know when you can pay it back."
Lu Jingwei said: "Forget it then."
Jiang Ning patted his butt and left, forget it.
He only does business impartially and doesn't care about personal relationships.
Old Lu is a decent person and he won't make things difficult for him.
Back at the villa, the little guy was sleeping.
Feng Xue was washing clothes, as well as bed sheets and quilt covers.
Hearing the noise, he turned his head to look.
"sister!"
Jiang Ning called out and asked, "Is Tiantian still asleep?"
Feng Xue nodded and pointed upstairs.
Just keep busy.
Jiang Ning glanced at her, then went over and hugged her from behind.
Feng Xue's body stiffened, as if he was under a spell.
Holding the quilt, he stood still.
Jiang Ning snatched the sheet from her hand and threw it away. He put his hands around her waist and whispered in her ear, "Sister."
Feng Xue didn't look back or gesture.
Listen quietly.
Jiang Ning asked: "When are we going to have a baby?"
Feng Xue didn't move, and her face gradually turned red.
Jiang Ning freed his right hand, touched her face, felt the delicateness of her skin, and said, "You feel guilty towards Feng Yu, and I also feel that Feng Yu has sacrificed a lot, but you have paid so much for our family, Feng Yu can't watch you live alone until old age. Feng Yu and I have the same idea. Since you agree, why don't we get down to business first?"
Feng Xue didn't dare to look up, her face reddened to her ears.
Jiang Ning turned her around and hugged her face to face.
Feng Xue's waist is very soft, the kind that makes people feel numb.
I just didn’t dare look up, and I didn’t know where to put my hands.
Jiang Ning held up his chin with one hand and looked into her beautiful big eyes.
There was a hint of panic in his calm eyes.
The beautiful face was full of blush.
Feng Xue didn't dare to look at him and looked away.
Jiang Ning lowered his head.
Feng Xue didn't dodge and closed her eyes.
The lips are soft and have a faint fragrance.
Jiang Ning stopped after a brief taste, and the hand holding his chin guided Feng Xue to lean her face on his shoulder. He said, "Life is like a game. You need to complete different tasks to get different rewards and gain different insights. There are too many things missing in your life, but it doesn't matter. Let's slowly make up for it, okay?"
Feng Xue turned her head and nodded slightly.
Jiang Ning asked: "Have you considered what I told you this morning?"
Feng Xue gestured, meaning that he had considered it.
Jiang Ning asked: "What do you think?"
Feng Xue continued to gesture, and his sign language was a little messy.
Maybe she didn't know how to express it.
Jiang Ning asked in a different way: "Do you want to have surgery?"
Feng Xue nodded.
Jiang Ning asked: "Then let's wait until Feng Yu is off during the winter break to do the surgery."
Feng Xue was a little conflicted.
Jiang Ning asked: "Are you scared?"
Feng Xue nodded.
Jiang Ning said, "If it were me, I would be afraid too. After all, having brain surgery is like putting your life in someone else's hands. But I will find the best doctor for you and take all possible accidents into consideration and prepare countermeasures. I will also be there to watch the surgery. If there is any danger, I will stop it in time and prevent any accidents from happening."
Feng Xue thought for a long time and finally nodded.
Jiang Ning did not push her any further. He hugged her for a while and then let her go.
Help hang out the washed sheets and quilt covers.
It's not like he has no self-control, so how could he be so impatient?
After being busy for a while, I heard the little kid crying upstairs.
Jiang Ning asked Feng Xue to go upstairs to look after the children while he was responsible for doing the laundry.
