Chapter 5: Debt
Zhang Liang is an honest man, Miao Xihua has a loud voice and loves to nag, but his heart is very good. is also a foreigner, and it is not easy to make a few dollars in a small store in Huadu City. In the past six months, he has taken in Liang Yong, treating him as a younger brother, and he has indulged in Liang Yong's lazy work attitude, and never said anything serious. Although Liang Yong didn't say it, he kept it in his heart.
Now this 10,000 yuan is not a small amount, Liang Yong doesn't want to drag them down, so he must return it to them.
"Yes, Sister Hua is just talking, not asking you to pay back. Look at my stinky mouth, don't take it to heart. Miao Xihua hurriedly stopped Liang Yong. Zhang Liang is also a rare dissatisfaction with her.
"This is what I provoked, and I should have paid for it, how can I blame you. Liang Yong said. Don't look at him as lascivious and lazy, but in major matters, he adheres to his consistent principles of life.
If you hadn't repelled those hooligans last year, our store would have been closed long ago, how could we have a stable life now...... Miao Xihua was a little excited.
"Liang Yong, I know you were framed, don't be afraid!" Zhang Liang also held back a sentence excitedly, but he didn't know how to persuade Liang Yong.
"Sister Hua, Brother Liang, I understand your heart. But that's my principle of being a human being. Liang smiled at them, but comforted them.
In my heart, I felt infinite hatred for Officer Xiao Ling, who handled unjust, false and wrongful cases indiscriminately: "Big-breasted and brainless girl, see how I clean you up!"
The three of them returned to the Rising Sun Home Appliance Repair Shop, and Zhang Liang opened the door of the shop to put out the signboard and some old electrical appliances to continue business. It belongs to the façade of the vegetable market on the street, with two floors, the first floor is for business in front, the back is separated by a bathroom and kitchen, and the second floor is stacked with goods and people. Zhang Liang and Sister Hua eat and live in the store, so the store has to stay until nine o'clock in the evening every day, and it's still early.
Sister Hua returned to the store and went to the back kitchen to be busy.
Liang Yong didn't enter the store, greeted Zhang Liang at the door, and walked towards the community across the road with his tools. He rented a house in the neighborhood opposite. Although he belongs to the staff of the store, he does not receive a fixed salary, but a cooperative relationship based on work. The business is taken over by the store, and the beam is repaired, and the money earned is thirty-seven, and the beam is seventy-seven. Therefore, the maintenance tools are also purchased by Liang Yong himself and carried with him.
"Yes, I've already cooked your rice, I'll come over to eat later. Sister Hua came out from behind and saw Liang Yong leaving, and shouted loudly.
"No need, Sister Hua. I cook my own meals at home. Liang Yong waved his hand back, he was unjustly locked up for a day, he was in a very bad mood, and he just wanted to go home early to take a shower and sleep.
"Cooking by yourself, it's not instant noodles yet......" Sister Hua muttered in the back, shaking her head helplessly.
"Don't bother him, he's in a bad mood. Zhang Liang said in a muffled voice, and lowered his head to do his thing.
The old-fashioned community across the road was originally the staff dormitory of the machinery factory, and later after the machinery factory stopped production and restructured, a property company took over the place and changed its name to Fuyuan Community. Most of the people living in it are the families of the workers of the original machinery factory, and with the development of this piece of business, many workers will rent out the vacant houses, and Liang Yong will rent them in the Fuyuan community.
When Liang Yong entered the gate of the community, two young gangsters who were angry saw Liang Yong, and hurriedly nodded and greeted: "Brother Liang, you are back!"
"Yes. Liang snorted and continued walking.
"Brother Liang, Fifth Brother asked us to ask you, will you participate in the car race tomorrow night? Fifth Brother has already registered you. The thug followed Liang Yong and asked cautiously.
"Look, let the fifth child call me then. "Liang Yong is in a bad mood and can't lift his spirits about anything.
……
Liang Yong returned to the penthouse on the fifth floor of the building and dropped the kit and cylinder in the corner of the living room. Walked into a bedroom and took out a change of clothes and went into the bathroom, and was locked in a cell for two days without taking a shower on a hot day, his body smelled bad, and he himself smelled uncomfortable.
This is an old-fashioned two-bedroom and one-hall unit, and Liang Yong has not rented it alone, he shares it with others. Two bedrooms are one for one person, living room, bathroom, kitchen are shared, and the rent is half for one person. In fact, for Liang Yong, the kitchen is just a decoration, and he eats out three meals a day. Occasionally, I stay at home and eat instant noodles to satisfy my hunger.
At this time, a simple girl came out of the other bedroom, a simple white dress, the style was a little outdated, and it seemed that she had been wearing it for a long time. The long black hair is tied at the back of the head with a rubber band, and the delicate facial features are not felt at first glance, but when you look at it again, there is a flawless shock, pure like the little girl next door in the 80s.
She glanced at Liang Yong's room, then at the bathroom, and then walked into the kitchen quietly, and after a while, the sound of cooking and stir-frying came from the kitchen, and the aroma was permeating.
There were several elderly coughs in the girl's room. The girl hurriedly ran out and closed the door of the room and said, "Grandma, the meal will be good in a while." ”
"Yu'er, don't close the door, I'm fine. This kid is cooking in the kitchen with the door closed, but it hurts you. After a few more coughs in the room, a loving voice was heard.
Liang walked out of the bathroom wearing big pants and a vest, and just after taking a shower, he felt a burst of heat. It was the height of summer, and the top floor of this old-fashioned building had no thermal insulation, and it was still hot and dry in the evening. Hurriedly returned to the room and turned on the air conditioner, the air conditioner was still Liang Yong's recently bought two horses. Deliberately leave the door closed to let the cold air blow into the living room.
Liang Yong, who has always been so poor that he has eaten a meal but has not eaten the next meal, is willing to spend three or four thousand yuan to buy a large air conditioner? This matter has to start more than a month ago.
The girl's name is Qin Yu, and she lives in the same village with Liang Yong, a good friend of her childhood sweetheart. As long as he recalls his childhood, Liang Yong can't help but smile happily. At that time, Yu'er followed him all day long, and the whole thing was a caring follower. Such a happy life completely changed when Qin Yu was 12 years old, when the factory where her parents worked outside suddenly caught fire, killing dozens of people, including her parents. The black-hearted foreign boss ran away afterwards, and the family did not receive a penny in compensation.
It was with the help of the government that Qin Yucai buried his parents and received meager relief from the government. She and her lonely grandmother were left to fall into hell in an instant, and their lives were difficult. After the great disaster, the weak Qin Yu showed strength beyond her age, and she and her grandmother guarded each other and insisted on finishing middle school, and won the first place in the city's liberal arts in this year's college entrance examination.
When many famous universities in China offered high scholarships to invite her to study, Qin Yu once again made an astonishing decision to take her grandmother to school. chose Huadu University, which is closest to home, and brought my grandmother to Huadu during the summer vacation, ready to work for two months, and went to Huadu to settle my grandmother first.
