When Zhenhua's family borrowed money everywhere, his brother-in-law Chen Daogang also borrowed money everywhere.

Chen Daogang also brought more than a dozen workers from his village to work with Qi Lei, and the wages of these workers all fell on his head.

Although Chen Daogang has followed Qi Lei in the past few years and made a lot of money, he has spent it on family construction and built a two-story small building, and the family's savings are not much. In order to pay for these wages, Chen Daogang had to borrow money from everywhere.

After several years of hard work, in the end, he lost all his money with interest and owed a lot of debts. Zhenxia couldn't get angry and had a big quarrel with Chen Daogang. Fortunately, Zhao Chenghai foresaw this situation and went to his daughter's home to mediate in person, so that the tragedy did not occur.

Zhenxia was also full of complaints about her younger brother Zhenhua, feeling that Chen Daogang was working with Qi Lei because of Zhenhua, but it was not easy to talk about it, worried that her brother-in-law and her younger brother would quarrel, so she could only endure it and suppress the pain in her heart.

Qi Lei's life is even more difficult, he is blocked by creditors every day, closely monitored, and accompanied by people when he goes to the toilet.

Some workers went directly to the provincial capital, found Zhuang Xiaodie's residence, and asked Zhuang Xiaodie and Qi Lei's mother for money.

Zhuang Xiaodie laughed: "Qi Lei, Qi Lei, you also have today!?"

Qi Lei's mother scolded even more: "I already knew that Qi Lei's dog didn't end well, this time it's a loser!"

The workers blocked Zhuang Xiaodie's door and said, "Zhuang Xiaodie, we don't care about your family affairs, anyway, Qi Lei owes us wages to pay." ”

Zhuang Xiaodie rolled her eyes: "I and Qi Lei are divorced, Qi Lei owes money, what does it matter to me? ”

The workers were clamoring: "Qiu Rong has already run away, where can I find it? We will look for you and Qi Lei! If Qi Lei doesn't give money, we will stay here and not leave." ”

Some workers said: "Who knows what trick Qi Lei is playing? While he is buying a house in the city, he also says that his little wife has run away with the money." I think he just wants to repay the debt, and he is estimated to transfer the property!"

For the workers, even if Zhuang Xiaodie and Qi Lei divorced, it wouldn't work. Zhuang Xiaodie's house was bought by Qi Lei, and Qi Lei must sell the house to pay off his debts!

Zhuang Xiaodie snorted and said, "You go and bring Qi Lei over, let him kneel and apologize to me, and I will sell the house to pay off the debt!"

The workers discussed, leaving a few people to watch Zhuang Xiaodie, and the others to take Qi Lei.

This day is the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, and the villagers are busy celebrating the New Year.

Zhenhua temporarily dealt with his debts and went to see what Qi Lei's situation was now.

Qi Lei was sitting at the table of the Eight Immortals in the hall at the moment, his hair was messy, and he looked like a tree.

Thirty or forty creditors surrounded Qi Lei, filled with righteous indignation, and criticized him verbally.

Zhenhua sighed and opened his mouth, but nothing came out.

The figure in front of the door flashed, and Director Shi came in with a briefcase, frowning and looking at the situation in the house.

"Director Shi, why are you here?" Zhenhua stepped forward to greet him.

"Isn't it for Qi Lei's loan?" Director Shi glared at Zhenhua, turned his head to look at Qi Lei, and asked, "Qi Lei, you promised me to repay my loan at the end of the year." Now it's the end of the year, what about the money?"

Qi Lei smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Director Shi, I can't pay this money this year." The money is gone, and my wife took it all away......"

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month a few years ago, Zhenhua accompanied Qi Lei to Wang Yaoyan's house to ask for wages, and Wang Yaoyan also said this.

At that time, Qi Lei also told Zhenhua that he could also take workers out to work, and then deduct their wages and use this excuse to repay the debt.

Unexpectedly, today, Qi Lei finally lived like Wang Yaoyan did that year.

"Qi Lei, Zhao Zhenhua, you two have killed me!" Director Shi glared at Zhenhua and Qi Lei viciously, turned around and left.

He knew that Qi Lei was really bankrupt, and it was useless to kill Qi Lei now.

Zhenhua chased out the door, pulled Director Shi and said, "Director Shi, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect Qi Lei to do this...... You see, can Qi Lei's loan be extended, and he will pay it back when he earns money in the future......"

"Postponement?Do you think the bank is opened by my family, and if you want to extend, you can postpone it!?" Director Shi shook off Zhenhua's hand and said with a dark face:

"I'm going to be transferred after the Spring Festival, and the loan I put down must be collected before leaving. Qi Lei, this bastard, this is clearly trying to kill me! And you Zhao Zhenhua, if you hadn't introduced Qi Lei to me, how could I get this bastard!?"

Zhenhua smiled bitterly, just apologizing.

Director Shi stopped talking and stomped away.

Zhenhua sighed, his heart was clouded, and he returned to Qi Lei's home to comfort the workers.

Qi Lei was already a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, sat there with a blank face, and said: "It's useless for everyone to kill me now, it's better to let me go, I'll go to Qiu Rong to ask for money." If you don't believe me, keep watching me and spend the New Year with me. If you can't get angry, slash me a few times, and I'll promise to stand still and let you cut it. ”

The workers didn't believe Qi Lei, and looked at Zhenhua together: "You let Zhenhua vouch, and we will let you go." ”

Qi Lei turned his face to look at Zhenhua.

Zhenhua shook his hand: "I can't guarantee it." If you want to kill Qi Lei, I don't care. I went with his brother to collect his body. ”

The workers are also in a rut, and they are all sad.

Zhenhua said again: "But I think it's not a way for everyone to hold on to Qi Lei like this." I suggest that everyone negotiate well, people don't die, debts don't rot, as long as Qi Lei lives, everyone has hope to get their wages back, it's just a little late. ”

Qi Lei also stood up and said: "Fellow villagers, I will give you a note now, all the arrears will be calculated according to the bank interest, and I will give you the principal and interest in the future, okay? If you let me go, maybe I can still find Qiu Rong." You look me dead, and I can't do anything about it!"

The workers were also exhausted in patience, and they couldn't think of a good way, so they had to nod their heads and ask for IOUs.

Qi Lei typed the IOUs one by one and pressed his own handprint.

The workers took the IOUs and walked away with a curse.

The first group of workers in front had just left, and the first group of workers in the back rushed back from Zhuang Xiaodie, blocking Qi Lei, and wanted to take Qi Lei to the provincial capital to sell the house.

Qi Lei smiled bitterly: "Everyone, tomorrow will be the Chinese New Year's Eve, how to sell the house at this time? Who will buy it? Or, I will sell it to you now, 60,000 yuan, do you want it? When I pass the New Year, I will sell the house and pay you back, okay? If you run away and the monk can't run the temple, why do you have to force each other to die?"

After all, the workers have been working with Qi Lei for a year or two, and they have some feelings, and seeing that Qi Lei said sincerely, they had to nod and promise to talk about it after the year.

Qi Lei temporarily sent away the creditor, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhenhua looked at Qi Lei's home, shook his head and sneered.

All the valuable things in his house have been emptied, including the thousands of catties of rice that Zhuang Xiaodie has worked so hard to harvest, and the workers have also moved them to pay off the debt. The chickens, geese and ducks in the backyard were also swept away.

Qi Lei asked Zhenhua for a cigarette, lit it and took a puff, and said with a wry smile: "Zhenhua, I have planted a big heel, and it has also affected you......"

"What's the use of talking this now, go and kowtow to Zhuang Xiaodie, sell the house in the city, take Fluttershy back, remarry, and live a good life to pay off her debts!" Zhenhua said with a glare.

"Okay, I'll kowtow to Fluttershy tomorrow. Qi Lei said.

"I went to my sister Chunlan's cigarette hotel, and came back with some New Year's goods on credit, and I said hello to Chunlan. Zhenhua sighed and turned to go home.

With Qi Lei's current situation, he can't get credit on credit, so Zhenhua has to find a way for Qi Lei to let him pass this year.

However, Zhenhua did not expect that early in the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, when he got up to open the door, he found a letter in the crack of the door.

When I opened the letter, I saw that it was written by Qi Lei.

Qi Lei ran away, and in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve of the reunion of ten thousand families, he ran away alone.
