Chapter 2035 - White Porridge That Is Hard to Swallow
Looking at the old man, Ye Ren didn't ask much, just curious eyes, and kept wandering around the old man's body, which made the old man feel helpless.
After thinking for a while, he said: "This was a few years ago, I borrowed money from a more prosperous place over there before, but at that time the business was at a loss, and I didn't pay it back if I couldn't pay it back, and now they came to ask for money, and if they didn't give the money, they would threaten to kill me, and this kind of thing happened, haven't you all thought about it yourself and know it? Otherwise, what else can you ask?"
Saying this made his mood a little embarrassed and heavy, and he didn't know what to do, otherwise why this kind of thing happened, and it became a situation that no one knew.
Just thinking about it like this, Ye Ren seemed to already know why this kind of thing happened.
He thought about it and felt a little satisfied, if this is the case, then the matter is easier to understand, just a simple company's financial disputes and other problems, can still make people understand why this kind of thing happened.
There are a lot of people in such a company, but it won't really, do something to kill people, the old man just wants to give a little more money or get beaten more, just like what the old man said before.
It's just that this old man's body, I'm afraid it really can't accept such a blow.
"Then what are you going to do in the future? Your body doesn't need me to remind you, I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand such a blow, if we don't stop it, you will continue to be beaten today, this is not something you can bear, are you sure you can really accept such a situation?"
Looking at the old man, he opened his mouth seriously, and the whole person was also very curious.
After hearing this, the old man's face was naturally a little embarrassed, he really didn't expect such a situation, and he didn't know what to do.
Just thinking about it like this, his face is not good-looking, and as for why this happens, there is no one to explain to him.
Thinking of this, the old man just sighed helplessly, he really didn't know how to respond to these situations, otherwise where would this kind of thing happen.
It's just that in this way, he can only shake his head and pretend that he doesn't care.
Ye Ren knew his thoughts, and he also felt helpless, so he simply did it to the end, they were afraid that they would really have to solve this matter for the old man before leaving.
He looked at the old man and said, "Don't you have any family, let them prepare more money for you, and pay it back as interest, these people don't look at people for money, and if they have money, they will naturally not do anything bad to you, if you believe me, you should quickly contact your family." ”
Looking at the old man, Ye Ren said calmly.
But no matter what he said, the old man didn't seem to believe what he said, which made his face a little embarrassed.
This is absolutely no good for them, and the old man himself should understand why he doesn't care about this situation? If he is beaten violently at such an age, he is afraid that he will die.
Looking at Ye Ren's appearance, the old man just shook his head bitterly, where does he have any family, he has been alone since before, otherwise I am afraid that the current situation will not appear.
The old man wanted to explain, but he didn't want such a person of such an age to live so miserably, so he could only be silent, and the rest didn't say anything, Ye Ren was a little embarrassed, and he didn't ask.
At this time, Qin Zheng came over from outside with two bowls of white porridge with sugar and put them in front of them, one bowl for each person, and the two of them also calmed down a little, planning to come back after a meal to continue to entangle these problems.
But I didn't expect that just after taking a sip, I had already spit out everything.
"What is this?"
Looking at Qin Zheng, the two of them shouted in unison, but there was a very tacit understanding, which surprised Qin Zheng.
"It's white porridge, haven't you ever drunk it? ”
Speaking quickly, Qin Zheng also felt very dissatisfied, where did he think that this kind of thing would happen, he only felt very helpless, thinking that Ye Ren might have deliberately treated him like this, otherwise why did he drink well before, but now he said such a thing.
Ye Ren was also helpless when he heard this, and directly handed the thing to Qin Zheng and asked Qin Zheng to take a sip of it.
Qin Zheng didn't know, and after taking a sip of the white porridge suspiciously, he immediately spit it out as soon as he put it in his mouth, and he already completely understood what they were thinking.
This thing doesn't seem to be white porridge!
Why is it so salty?
The old man looked at Qin Zheng and sighed helplessly: "Have you never cooked before, and you can't tell the difference between salt and sugar?"
After hearing this, Qin Zheng patted his head: "Yes, there is also the existence of salt, I saw a white flower and thought it was sugar, and I didn't think of salt at all." ”
After hearing this, they felt that they could not accept it, and they had no choice but to give up like this, otherwise what would they do?
For Qin Zheng's approach, Ye Ren and the old man had no choice, the old man could only drag his tired body out of the bed, and he had to go over to make a few more bowls of porridge.
You can't drink this stuff at all!
Looking at the old man like this, Qin Zheng also felt a little embarrassed, he seemed to have become a fool in an instant, and he couldn't even tell the difference between salt and sugar, otherwise where would this kind of thing happen?
He hurriedly stopped the old man, asked him to go back to the bed, and said coldly: "It's just that I put the wrong eye and sugar, go and get it again, and put the sugar in it well." ”
Saying that, Qin Zheng turned around and left, not planning to stay here any longer, being looked at by them here, as if he had become a fool, which was definitely not a good thing.
Looking at the back of Qin Zheng leaving quickly, the old man glanced at Ye Ren, and his mood was a little complicated.
Ye Ren also said helplessly: "I feel that he can't drink it this time." ”
Saying that, although Ye Ren didn't plan to tear down the stage, but Qin Zheng was in such a situation, and the old man completely agreed with what he said, the two of them looked embarrassed when they sat on the bed, and they didn't know if they could drink a bowl of delicious white porridge today.
In the kitchen.
Qin Zheng looked at the bottles and cans in front of him, very embarrassed.
Which one was salt, he forgot......
After a few days, Ye Ren recovered well here, and was taken care of by Qin Zheng's white porridge with salt and sugar every day, and in the end, the old man and Ye Ren couldn't eat anything, but they thought it was delicious.
During this period, those people have been locked up in the backyard of the old man's house, and they drink this kind of thing every day, it is worse than death, thinking that they are torturing them with this kind of thing, but Ye Ren and they don't know what these people are thinking.
Because these people have not gone back to report the news, the people of the borrowing company do not know where they went, let alone who has anything to do with this matter, so people do not know the situation, let alone why this kind of thing happened.
The old man, on the contrary, was safe and was not suspected by anyone at all, at least no one thought that there was something wrong with the facility.
In this way, Ye Ren also thought that the previous choice was very good, and it was the best thing for them not to let these people go back.
It's just that in this way, there are other problems.
This old man was already very poor, and there was very little rice, flour, grain and oil at home, and now he had to raise Ye Ren and Qin Zheng, and several people in the back would also drink porridge together, and this rice would be very fast, and there would be no food in store in a few days, and if it continued like this, I am afraid that they would all starve to death.
In this way, it is reflected in the people in the back, they can drink three meals a day, and the tormenting week has now been changed to one meal a day, and the amount is less than before, but they are locked up people, as long as they can live, they are already very good, naturally they can't be picky, but they still miss the taste of white porridge a little, I hope to give them a little more,
Even if it's unpleasant, at least it can save your life.
Ye Ren and Qin Zheng didn't mean to kill them, they just had to maintain their most basic survival, so they gave such a little bit, but there was still no rice in front.
On this day, when there were only a few grains of rice left, Ye Ren and Qin Zheng also planned to follow the old man to buy some things in the town bazaar, and also to conserve their physical strength, otherwise how to cultivate and leave here.
The old man didn't seem to go out much, and if it weren't for the fact that there was nothing left, he probably wouldn't have gone with them to the town market at all.
When he arrived here, the old man didn't wander around, and went directly towards Mi Xing, obviously planning to buy rice and leave, ignoring other things, and even letting Ye Ren and Qin Zheng go outside.
"Hey, there are chickens, ducks and fish that sell here, why don't you buy some?"
Looking at the old man, Qin Zheng and Ye Ren were very curious, the old man just shook his head helplessly and said: "I don't have any money, I keep all the money and return the money, and I have to find my poor grandson and son, otherwise I wouldn't have been so miserable in the past few years." ”
The old man spoke, but he said something they hadn't expected.
"Grandson and son, don't you have no family?"
Looking at the old man, Ye Ren was very shocked.
Although the old man didn't say it, they felt it themselves.
Now they suddenly say that they have relatives, which makes them feel very surprised, is this the old man's bitterness of not paying back the money for several years?
Looking at them, the old man didn't care.
"Naturally, I have family, but they are separated. The old man of the owner looked at them with a bitter face.
"Separated?"
Hearing this, Qin Zheng was even more curious.
Nodding, the old man didn't plan to say more, even if they were curious, they were embarrassed to ask, and the two looked at each other, so they simply didn't say anything.
"Okay, don't look at it, if you have money, go buy things yourself, I'll be waiting for you here. ”
The old man said, coughed, let Ye Ren and Qin Zheng understand what it meant, and immediately nodded, then let them help the old man improve the food.
