Chapter 332: Homesickness (1)
Zhenhua smiled and nodded: "Hello, hello, welcome to settle in our Dongwan Village, bless you." Qi Gui...... is a very good young man, can endure hardships, can also work, and knows that you feel sorry for people, you will definitely live happily in the future. ”
Luo Yuhuan greeted in Mandarin and said with a red face, "Thank you, village chief." ”
Zhenhua waved his hand: "Don't call me the village chief, just call me Brother Zhenhua." Qi Gui calls me big brother, and you also call me big brother, don't see outside. ”
Qi Lei's mother came over with a smile, took Zhenhua's hand and said, "Zhenhua came just in time, I was about to ask Qi Gui to invite you to dinner." Don't go, tonight is the day of Qi Gui and Yuhuan's wedding, you are the eldest brother, so naturally you have to sit down and have a glass of wine. ”
"Are you going to get married tonight?" then I'm definitely going to have a glass of wine!" Zhenhua said with a smile.
Lan Yuzhi squeezed her eyes at Zhenhua and walked out the door.
Zhenhua understood and walked outside the door.
Lan Yuzhi walked away a few steps, sighed and said, "Zhenhua, I've been thinking about it for a long time, Qi Gui is married, so it's so-so." There is really no money at home, and if you put wine on the table, I'm afraid that those creditors of Qi Lei will come to take the opportunity to collect debts......"
Zhenhua touched his chin and asked, "What does Fluttershy mean?" Qi Gui and Luo Yuhuan, what do you think?"
Zhuang Xiaodie happened to come out and shouted, "No, no, my mother said no." Marriage is a lifelong event, how can you not put wine? The family is poor, and it should be meaningful, otherwise, Qi Gui and Yuhuan will not be happy for the rest of their lives!"
Lan Yuzhi smiled bitterly and sighed.
Poor people mourn everything. When her son got married, of course the mother wanted to be lively, but the family owed a huge amount of foreign debt, and Lan Yuzhi really couldn't come up with a penny.
Zhuang Xiaodie insisted on her opinion and said, "Even if it is three or five tables of guests, you must set up wine for Qi Gui and Yuhuan." Don't worry, my mother, Qi Gui brought back a few thousand yuan, and the wine is enough. ”
Zhenhua also supported Zhuang Xiaodie's opinion, nodded and said, "What Xiaodie said makes sense, even if it's simpler, let's give Qi Gui and Luo Yuhuan half of the wedding." ”
Lan Yuzhi had to nod: "Okay, I'll do it." ”
That night, Zhenhua stayed here for dinner, and discussed Qi Gui's wedding by the way. Everyone didn't pick the day anymore, and set the date on the twenty-second day of the lunar month.
Zhuang Xiaodie is responsible for the handling of specific matters. After all, there are only three or five tables of guests, which is easy to arrange.
After dinner, Zhenhua returned home.
Yilan sat at the head of the bed and watched TV, and said, "There was a neurotic caller just now, and it was Nanjing's number. After I connected, the other party hung up without talking, and it was like this three times in a row......"
"Nanjing, could it be that Qi Lei called?" Zhenhua groaned.
"What the hell knows?" Yilan rolled her eyes.
"I called and asked. Zhenhua leaned in front of the telephone and looked through the call records.
"Ask him what he does? Long-distance calls are expensive. Yilan said.
Just then, the phone rang again.
"It must be that neurotic again!" Yilan scolded.
"I'll pick it up this time. Zhenhua picked up the microphone and asked, "Hey, who is it?"
No one spoke on the other end of the phone, only the sound of breathing.
"Speak, if you don't speak, I'll hang up!" Zhenhua said.
"Don't hang up!" A voice finally came from the other side of the phone, saying, "Big brother, I'm Qi Lei......"
"Qi Lei, are you Qi Lei!?" Zhenhua heard Qi Lei's voice, and his heart was excited and angry, with mixed feelings.
It has been four years since Qi Lei left Dongwan Village and ran away to avoid debts.
For Zhenhua, this is a particularly long four years, a particularly difficult four years. Four years ago, Zhenhua even doubted whether he could survive it!
In the past four years, Zhenhua has worked hard to earn money to pay off his debts, but he has also felt guilty and blamed himself. Especially in the first two years, it was like a year.
But in the past four years, Zhenhua has often thought of Qi Lei and his former brotherly feelings.
Now, finally with the news of Qi Lei, Zhenhua is naturally happy and angry.
"Yes, I'm Qi Lei. ”
"Hehe, it turns out that you are still alive? Hehe, it turns out that you still know to call me!" Zhenhua stabilized his mood and sneered: "What are you calling me for?"
Qi Lei was silent for a moment over there and said, "Zhenhua, I know I'm sorry for you, so no matter how you scold me, it's all right." If you're angry, you can scold me a few more words, and I'll listen. ”
Zhenhua was even more annoyed and scolded: "I scolded you? If I see you, I will stab you to death with a harpoon! A big man, who has lived this virtue, owes a lot of debts, hides outside and becomes a turtle with a shrunken head, and makes his mother and wife suffer at home." Qi Lei, are you still human?"
Yilan looked at Zhenhua and said in a low voice: "What's the use of scolding him? Get down to business, ask him about his current situation, and if he has any money to pay back to Director Shi!"
However, Zhenhua was angry, and he couldn't listen to Yilan's words at all, and continued to scold Qi Lei.
Zhenhua scolded for three minutes, but Qi Lei was silent.
"Bastard, why don't you speak? If you speak, what will happen to the debts you owe? What about Director Shi's loan!?" Zhenhua asked angrily.
"Zhenhua, listen to me......" Qi Lei sighed and said, "I've been wandering outside for four years and I'm homesick." Today I went to find your cousin Zhao Chengquan, asked some information, and knew that you are now the village head, and I also know your phone number. ”
Zhenhua's hand holding the microphone was trembling, and he stopped scolding and reprimanding Qi Lei and listened to him.
Qi Lei continued: "Zhenhua, I know that you have been helping me pay off my debts for the past few years, and you have also helped my mother and Fluttershy, as well as Qi Shuai to go to school, and Pu Jia, all of which have bothered you. I don't want to say words of thanks between us brothers. But don't worry, if I can get up in the future, I won't forget you. ”
"Don't talk about these useless!" Zhenhua couldn't help it, and said: "I don't expect you to thank me if you get rich in the future, Qi Lei, I just want you to take the money now, and pay off the arrears of Director Shi and my brother-in-law, as well as my money...... My money can also be slowed down, but Director Shi's loan, you must repay!"
Qi Lei sighed over there and said, "I still have 10,000 yuan in my hand, otherwise, I will send it to you first, and return it to Director Shi." The rest of the money, I slowly figured it out. ”
"Ten thousand, let's talk about it. There is another thing to tell you, your second brother Qi Gui, who worked in the south, brought back a girl, got married on the twenty-second day of the lunar month, and was also waiting for money to hold a wedding. Zhenhua said.
"What? My second brother got a wife? Is it really fake? Where is the woman?" Qi Lei was surprised.
"You can get a wife like a bird, and you can ask for two, why can't Qi Gui please a wife?" Zhenhua said angrily.
