Lai Mazi's real name is Li Tiezhu, and he is a native of He Rong's same village.

Compared with his real name, many people are willing to call him Lai Mazi, for no other reason, because his face is full of pockmarks, and the only way to survive is to make money with horses and camels.

Lai Mazi's reputation in the village is very bad, almost no one cares about him, more importantly, because the rural people in this place where He Rong is located are relatively powerful, seeing that Lai Mazi's family is the only one left, and he has no wife, the people in the village feel that when he is his generation, when he also hangs, then his Li Tiezhu's vein is completely extinct, cut off from children and grandchildren, and no longer exists, so he has always looked down on Lai Mazi.

Because of the above reasons, few people take care of Lai Mazi, let alone lend him money, but He Guanlan is one of Lai Mazi's few superficial brothers.

What is a superficial brother, that is, when you can use it, you call it a brother, if you can't use it, you won't recognize people if you turn your face, Lai Mazi is this kind of person.

However, although the people in the village look down on Lai Mazi, no one dares to bully Lai Mazi, the reason is very simple, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. He has nothing, and if you speak to him that makes him uncomfortable, then ....... He's a big deal, he's got nothing anyway, and he's not afraid of losing anything.

And other people who want to ridicule and look down on him will also weigh whether it is important to ridicule for a while or a small life.

A few years ago, Lai Mazi stabbed others a few times because of a quarrel with someone, and then he couldn't get the compensation and was locked up in prison for several years.

But.

Although Lai Mazi's real name is Li Tiezhu, he is not simple, not only that, but he is very shrewd, usually he only dares to bully some family members to go out to work, and the elderly people who stay at home do not dare to provoke strong men.

Not to mention anything else, he still sees people more accurately, and knows that He Guanlan is addicted to alcohol, dies to save face, and gambles indiscriminately, he continues to please, approach, compliment, and praise He Guanlan again and again, three times and twice, he has become He Guanlan's pig friend and dog friend, usually He Guanlan sees that he has difficulties in making a living, and will find some things on the construction site for him to do and help him.

He Guanlan did not perceive his wolf ambition, and at the same time, he did not see through his careful thinking, but felt that Lai Mazi was his true brother, closer than his own brother;

It would be better if you could repay the money after you borrowed it.

Lai Mazi, who got He Guanlan's favor, did not appreciate these small favors, he has been flattering and complimenting He Guanlan, just wanting to make a big deal with He Guanlan, three glasses and two liquors in his stomach, He Guanlan, who was already floating, heard Lai Mazi compliment himself Boss He, rich, and it was not a simple coefficient. With a wave of his hand, He Guanlan very heroically lent the 20,000 three from the public to Lai Mazi.

When he returned home, he came to his senses, thinking of Lai Mazi's conditions, and then thinking of Li Yitian at home, He Guanlan was shocked into a cold sweat.

Finished.

What to do?

When he lent money to Lai Mazi, he had a lot of face, but on Lai Mazi's terms, it was impossible to repay the money.

He wanted to go out and ask Lai Mazi for money, but he couldn't lose face.

When he got home, when Li Yitian asked, he still didn't admit his mistake, saying that Li Yitian should not look down on people, Lai Mazi was a reputable person, and said that he would pay it back in three months, and he would definitely pay it back in three months, if he didn't pay it back, he would never step into the house from now on.

For this.

The two had a big fight and a big fight.

The result is obvious, from the time the money was borrowed to the present, a year has passed, let alone repaying the money, and not a single coin has been seen, but He Guanlan has stayed at home recklessly, which shows that his oath can't even be believed in punctuation.

Lai Mazi's attitude is very resolute, one is that he has no money, and the other is that he can't afford to pay it back, his life is here, if you want to take it, you can take it.

He Guanlan has no way to deal with the scoundrel practices of such scoundrels, and similarly, others have no way to do it.

This is simply a dead end.

He has no family, and no other financial income, even if he sells his rotten wooden house, it is not worth 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.

Report to the officer?

It's not that I haven't reported to the official, but the attitude of the people is very resolute, and I am the only one in my family, so where can I get the money?

And now, He Rong is about to sign up for the start of college again, and he said that he didn't get admitted to the first book, so he asked him not to read, in fact, as long as he reads, as long as He Rong is willing to go, no matter where he goes to study, they will support He Rong to go, whether it is spiritual or financial.

According to Aunt He Rong's registration fee last year, the tuition fee plus book fee and accommodation fee should need nearly six or seven thousand, and the He family's daily expenses are already large, plus the latest project has not yet been settled, and the construction period is not enough, so it will definitely not be able to get the money.

As a result, the previous wish to use the 20,000 salary as He Rong's registration fee was also frustrated.

One head, two large.

Li Yitian is a very strong person, unless it involves a serious illness or injury, she generally will not open her mouth to borrow money from others.

————————

Compared with Li Yitian and He Guanlan, who couldn't sleep all night, because they got up in the middle of the night, He Rong himself was very sleepy, and he fell asleep and slept until 11:28 the next morning before waking up.

Rubbing his eyes, his eyes hurt a little, getting up in the middle of the night, coupled with what happened last night, made his eyes a little puffy, as if he was surfing the Internet all night.

After a brief wash, He Rong walked downstairs.

The downstairs was empty, the parents had already gone to work, and there were no pets in the house, so there was silence.

went back upstairs, dragged He Qingqing up directly, asked her to cook seriously, and He Rong went out from the side.

Lai Mazi's house is not too far from his house, about five minutes away.

He Rong's house is the first one at the corner of the village, and Lai Mazi is in the middle and upper part of the village.

Seven minutes later, He Rong came to the door of Lai Mazi's house, a small cabin of about 30 square meters, a stable and a toilet appeared in front of him, He Rong knocked on the door, and shouted: "Uncle Li, are you at home?"

I shouted twice in a row, but no one responded.

Walked directly from Lai Mazi's house, and walked to the bottom of the center of the village, a small mahjong parlor, He Rong looked around.

Today, the mahjong parlor is doing very well, and the courtyard is full of people.

Lai Mazi was not found outside, He Rong walked in directly and saw Lai Mazi in the corner of the mahjong table.

Lai Mazi is very short, only one meter in his sixties, he has a peach pit face, a pockmarked face, his hair is unkempt, and the oil is shiny, and the stench has not been washed for half a year.

Lai Mazi's eyes are very small, when he speaks, there is only a trace of gaps, other people's facial features are God's masterpieces, one stroke at a time, meticulously crafted, and Lai Mazi's facial features, as if they were randomly put together by God, are difficult to see.

"Uncle Li, I have something to do with you. ”

Facing Lai Mazi, He Rong smiled slightly and shouted.

The people in the room glanced up at He Rong, lowered their heads, and continued to play mahjong.

Lai Mazi glanced at He Rong, ignored He Rong, and watched others play mahjong by himself.
