Zhenhua also straightened his face, pretended to be a little solemn, and followed behind Qi Lei.

But as soon as they entered the door, Qi Lei and Zhenhua were stunned.

Wang Yaoyan's family is full of people, about twenty or thirty, all of whom are nearby villagers, some know and some don't know.

These people surrounded Wang Yaoyan, and their faces were blue and angry. Needless to say, they are also here to collect debts.

Wang Yaoyan was about thirty years old, his hair was messy and dull, as if he hadn't washed his hair for three years, wearing a washed white Chinese-style blue coat, sitting on a bench in the middle of the hall, leaning against the table of eight immortals, and holding a little boy of four or five years old in his arms.

The boy was also covered in dirt, wearing a pair of old cotton shoes with black toes exposed.

Seeing Qi Lei enter the house, Wang Yaoyan raised his head and smiled, and said:

"Qi Lei is also here to ask for money, right? Okay, there are tiles on the house and bricks on the wall, you can demolish whatever you want. It's really not good, there are kitchen knives in the kitchen, you can use a kitchen knife to cut me a few times to extinguish the fire. ”

Zhenhua shook his head in his heart, this is a hob meat.

Qi Lei looked at the room full of people, then at Wang Yaoyan, frowned, and said, "Wang Yaoyan, what do you mean by this?"

"It's not interesting, it's just that there's no money. Wang Yaoyan sighed, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it, but did not give it to these creditors, and continued:

"I went to the construction site yesterday to ask for the debt, and I was supposed to settle thousands of yuan, and I was going to settle your wages, but my wife stole it last night. She said that my family was poor, and that she would not live with me, and that she had run away with someone with my money, and that she didn't even want her son! Look at my son, he hasn't eaten until now!"

The child sniffled and cried in Wang Yaoyan's arms.

Qi Lei was silent, frowning and looking at Wang Yaoyan's face.

A middle-aged creditor came out, pointed at Wang Yaoyan's nose and shouted: "Wang Yaoyan, my family's New Year's goods haven't been settled yet, waiting for the New Year's salary." Without this money, we would not be able to live the New Year. If you don't let me celebrate the New Year, don't even think about it!"

The other creditors shouted: "Yes, if you don't give us money, don't even think about celebrating the New Year! When you took us out to work, you said that if you settle the account at the end of the year, and if you owe a penny, you will break a rib bone to settle the account! Now you are talking these nonsense, you are simply trying to repay the debt!"

Wang Yaoyan put on a posture of a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, pointed to the roof and said: "Needless to say, uncover the tile and demolish the house to settle the account, I don't say cowardice, even if you demolish the house, if I frown, I will write the word king upside down!"

Zhenhua shook his head, why are you really good at talking, the king character is written upside down, and it is not a king character?

The creditors were so angry that their nostrils were spitting fire, and they were noisy, but they didn't dare to really demolish the house.

Qi Lei looked left and right, suddenly turned around, and got into the kitchen in the back.

Under the stove in the kitchen, Wang Yaoyan's 60-year-old mother was sitting on a low stool and shedding tears.

Qi Lei looked left and right, grabbed the kitchen knife, and turned back to the hall.

Wang Yaoyan's mother was startled, hurriedly chased out, and cried: "Don't move the knife, don't move the knife...... If you have something to say, please!"

The room full of creditors and Wang Yaoyan all turned their faces to look at Qi Lei.

Zhenhua was also startled, thinking that Qi Lei was going to play with his life, so he involuntarily leaned over, ready to grab the knife.

For 300 yuan, it is not cost-effective to kill people with a knife.

"Get out of here!" Qi Lei waved the kitchen knife to force Zhenhua back, patted it on the table of the Eight Immortals with a kitchen knife, looked at the room full of creditors, and said word by word:

"I said everyone, people's hearts are flesh and blood, right? Everyone has a difficult time, right? Wang Yaoyan is now in trouble, why do you have to force people to death! They are all villagers in the front and back villages, and they don't look up and look down, do you have to force Wang Yaoyan to a dead end in this big New Year!?"

The creditors were stunned, each took a step back, and looked at Qi Lei stupidly.

Zhenhua was also stunned, why did this guy turn against him and help Wang Yaoyan speak?

Qi Lei put the kitchen knife on the table, waved his hand and said:

"Wang Yaoyan also owes me money, owes me more than 300, and I am here to ask for money today. But I don't want it now, it's all folks in the same place, I can't force people to death!"

The creditors did not speak.

Qi Lei smiled and patted Wang Yaoyan on the shoulder: "Live well, if you don't die, you will always come out." My money, you will pay it back when you have money in the future!"

Wang Yaoyan's eyes were red, and tears fell down: "Qi Lei, I can't stand you, I can't stand everyone's ......"

Qi Lei waved his hand and walked towards the door.

Walking to the door, he turned back to look at the creditors and said, "I took out the kitchen knife for everyone and put it on the table, if you want to cut Wang Yaoyan, hurry up, go home for the New Year after chopping!"

After that, Qi Lei looked up to the sky and laughed and went out.

Zhenhua hurriedly chased out, and together with Qi Lei, returned along the same road.

The two walked out of Xiaogezhuang and walked back along the ridge.

Zhenhua said: "Qi Lei, if I believe you again in the future, it will be your grandson! Let me accompany you to collect debts, gritting my teeth, and speaking like a single man every day, but when I get here, you let out a fart, and you don't want money! Why are you fooling me?"

Qi Lei shook his head, pulled Zhenhua to squat down on the ridge, took out a cigarette and lit it, and sighed:

"I went to Wang Yaoyan's kitchen to see that there was really nothing in the cold pot and cold stove. Looking at his mother and his son, I relented. You know, I'm a soft-hearted man, and I've always been kind to others......"

Zhenhua took the cigarette, squinted his eyes and said: "If you have a soft heart, you don't want three hundred yuan, I will see how you spend the New Year." ”

Qi Lei scratched his head and said with a smile: "I have to help me." You go back and tell your father, borrow a few hundred yuan for me to deal with it first, and then I will find a way to pay you back after the New Year. ”

Zhenhua smiled bitterly: "I also want to help you, but my father, you know, every copper plate is strung on the rib bone, and you want to take money from him, unless you break his rib bone." Now it's still my dad in charge, not me, I really can't be the master. ”

Zhenhua is also telling the truth, the family's economic expenditure, more than ten yuan, must be approved by his father.

Qi Lei was irritable, crumpled most of the cigarette on the ground, and frowned silently.

Zhenhua looked at Qi Lei's appearance and sighed: "That's it, Qi Lei, I'll accompany you to the town to find Zhang Kexiang, if she hasn't closed yet, you can borrow three hundred yuan from her to deal with it." She has money, so she shouldn't refuse. ”

Qi Lei thought about it and said with a wry smile: "It's also a way, that is...... I'm embarrassed to open my mouth because I'm a seven-foot man, and I'm looking for a woman to borrow money, alas......"
