Chapter Seventy-Five: The Hardest Is the New Year
After breakfast, I helped clean up the backyard of the uncle's house, and Yang Shulin went back to the room to change clothes.
While remembering the buttons of his clothes, he said to Zhang Aiying: "Why don't you go with me, I haven't been home for three years, go and see." ”
Zhang Aiying was putting the pig's feet into the snakeskin bag and said: "Didn't I just go a few days ago, and now in the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family is busy, so I won't go." Besides, I'm not going to go again in two days. Go and get back quickly, there's a lot going on in the afternoon. ”
"Hey, okay. I'm just going to deliver a pig's knuckle, soon. Yang Shulin carried the pig's feet to the hall, and Yang Yang was already waiting.
Yang Yang shook the car keys, watched Yang Shulin rush out in a hurry, and said, "Second uncle, don't worry, you take your time." Don't we have a car now, it's very fast. ”
Yang Shulin said, "During the Chinese New Year, everyone is busy, go and come back quickly, you can be busy in the afternoon." Let's go. ”
"Alright, let's go. Yang Yang was also carrying a snakeskin bag, and he was also going to deliver pig's feet to his grandparents.
"Wait, you bring some money, it's the New Year. The two were about to leave, Zhang Aiying chased them out and stuffed some money into Yang Shulin's pocket, indeed, it is not good to have no money on you for the New Year.
"Yo, rich, it looks like I'm really here today. "A man came in the courtyard with his hands behind his back and a briefcase in his right arm. He saw Yang Shulin come forward and said enthusiastically: "Hey, you know that I am coming today, and you have prepared money for me." You haven't been back for three years, and you've made a fortune this year?"
Yang Shulin and Zhang Aiying's faces changed when they saw this person. This person's name is Yang Qihuai, and he is also considered to be a big family, but he has already come out of five suits. Yang Qihuai is a coal digger, and he is considered a rich man in the village. Most of the money that Yang Shulin borrowed at that time was his. Now that the creditor has come to collect the debt, the two have naturally weakened their momentum.
"Hey, Qi Huai is here, sit down. Yang Shulin put the snakeskin bag in his hand on the ground, invited Yang Qihuai to sit down in the hall, turned his head to Zhang Aiying and said, "Go make a cup of tea." ”
Yang Qihuai stopped Yang Shulin and said, "Shulin, don't be in a hurry about drinking tea, brother and sister, don't be in a hurry to leave." Let's settle accounts first. I haven't come back for three years, and if I don't count it, this account will not be right. ”
The two of them looked embarrassed, and Yang Shulin gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! ”
Yang An heard the movement outside, came out to see what was going on, and just happened to meet Zhang Aiying with a sad face, so he asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Zhang Aiying squeezed out a smile and said, "It's okay, you can read a book." But she didn't have time to say anything at this time, and she had to go to the kitchen to make a cup of tea.
When Yang An arrived in the hall, he happened to hear that Yang's father was settling accounts with someone.
"Shulin, look at it, right, you went to set up a factory in 88, and the benefits were not good in 89, where do you say that 10,000 yuan from me is top. Later you paid back 5000. And then it's 90 years, this time you borrowed more, borrowed in two parts, a total of 30,000, 10,000 at a time, 20,000 at a time. The last time was in '91, you said that the factory was closed, the workers couldn't afford to pay their wages, we couldn't cheat people, and you took another 5,000. So it's a total of 40,000 dollars. That's right. While listening, Yang An looked at Yang Shulin and nodded silently, only to realize that his family owed so much money. You know, that's 30,000 in 90, which is a lot.
Yang Qihuai put down the pen and said: "Woods, a pen can't write two Yang characters, not to mention that you and I are still our own family." But no one's money came from the wind. It's been almost ten years, and I haven't forced you to pay back? No, but you didn't say hello to me when you came home, right? ”
Yang Shulin's face was a little embarrassed, and he said: "Qi Huai, this is my fault, I ......"
Yang Qihuai waved his hand and said, "Our account hasn't been settled yet." In 89-91, you borrowed 40,000 one after another, and I didn't count your interest for the past three years, but from 91 to 99, I calculated 500 interest on you every year. You really don't have too much, whether my 40,000 yuan is deposited in the bank or borrowed from others, the interest of 1,000 per year is not allowed, I really see that you go out, run a factory, and do the right thing, it is not easy. You see that other people in the village have asked me to borrow money, when has my Yang Qihuai been so generous?"
Yang Shulin sighed and said, "Qi Huai, this interest is really not much. Your accounts are clear, but I really don't have any money this year. ”
Yang Qihuai clicked on the account book: "Shulin, it's not that I forced you, it's been so many years, if you don't give me some today, then it really can't be said, so let's do it, you pay back the interest first, and talk about the rest next year." ”
Yang An heard that this is really not too much, to be honest, 40,000 is really not a small amount of money in this era, 500 interest a year is too cost-effective, at least ten years later, you will introduce 10,000 yuan on Alipay, and the interest for a year is almost 1,000.
However, this was a bit deceitful to Yang Yang's ears, and he shouted: "Uncle Huai, look at this big New Year." My second uncle didn't dare to go home for several years, didn't he just know that he was embarrassed. It's rare to go home once, and you won't know how to talk about it in the next year?"
Yang Qihuai shook his head and said, "Yangzi, what you said lightly, this is 40,000 yuan, it's been 8 years, I can't charge some interest, right?"
Not too much, Yang An nodded in his heart. In his previous life, he also remembered that he had come to collect the accounts, but Yang An felt that he was really a landlord bully like Huang Shiren at that time. After listening to so much today, I think people are really not too much.
At this time, Yang Shu and Yang Shusen also came, and the two of them greeted Yang Qihuai. Yang Shu smoked a cigarette and said, "Qi Huai, we are indeed very grateful to you for this matter, after so many years, this is the first time you have come to the door." It stands to reason that we should indeed repay the interest, but the second child really doesn't have a few dollars left over from his part-time job in the past few years, and the small money left every year is repaid first. As for you, firstly, the number is too large, and secondly, you Qihuai also has more money. Why don't you wait a few days?"
Yang Qihuai also lit the cigarette handed over by Yang Shu, pointed at Yang Shusen and said, "Shusen, you say." You are a master, if others owe you money and don't pay it back, you don't have to come to the door to get a penny, how do you feel? ”
Yang Shusen opened his mouth and didn't speak, this thing is really hard to say.
Yang An opened his mouth and said, "Dad, this money should be repaid." Uncle Qi Huai, I'm sorry. Thank you for taking care of you for so many years, this interest we deserve. As he spoke, he glanced at Yang Yang.
Yang Yang was very entangled, but he trusted Yang An, and said helplessly: "Then I'll give it first!"
Everyone was shocked! Yang An covered his head, I just asked you to help talk.
Yang Shu wanted to say something, but Yang Yang said it, so he naturally couldn't say no. And Yang Shusen said: "That's it, my eldest brother and I are half of each other, and we will help first, and we can't let Qi Huaibai go." As he spoke, he turned around and went to get the money.
Yang Yang was overjoyed, originally thought it would be 4,000, but now it only needs 2,000. But he forgot that his dad was already worried about his private money.
Yang Qihuai took the money, said a few auspicious words and left. Yang An watched him leave, looking at the sad faces of his parents and his parents. This Chinese New Year is really passable. If it weren't for me, I guess I wouldn't have had a good time this year.
really thinking about it, Yang Yang came over and stabbed Yang An, and whispered: "Third child, remember to pay me back when you take the money!"
Yo, this has just finished paying the interest, and someone is urging the debt again.
Yang An glanced at Yang Yang: "Brother, we are a family." You've only been borrowing for less than two minutes before you're urging for money. I think, you might as well be that Yang Qihuai!"
………………
Sorry for being late. There is a project tonight that is very rushed, and I haven't come back until now, and I haven't eaten yet.
It's not a complaint, I'm sorry, and I hope you understand.
It's so late to update, and I'm embarrassed to ask for a ticket, poor ......
Another: In the past two days, there have been two book friends who have appreciated, and they should have been added, but there are really more things at the end of the year, and I am satisfied to be able to keep constantly changing, thank you for your support all the way, thank you, thank you, thank you!
"Hey, no, Yang An, listen to me, that's my wife's ......"
