The rain in spring is coming, the crackling raindrops hit the roof, and it also hit the heart of Li Jiade, who was silent in the study, he looked coldly at the eldest brother and second brother who were begging, and his heart was sad. He knew that his eldest brother and second brother were very selfish, but he never thought that they would be so cold-natured, and the third brother was their own brother!

If the father had promised the second uncle that the third brother would be passed on to him for the elderly, it would have been reasonable in terms of ethics and human feelings, wouldn't the third uncle have passed on to the second mother-in-law who had died in the last place? But now that such a thing has just happened in her own family, the second aunt will deduct the medical expenses and nutrition expenses paid to her mother regardless of the situation, and then mention the matter of the second brother and want to borrow money, isn't this selling the third brother?

Li Chuanjian, who is in his forties but is as old as a sixtieth year, was in tears, looking at the pleading of his two sons, and lamented: "Big guy, second guy, don't make Ye Ye (Dad) embarrassed, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat!"

The desperate Li Jiaren brothers seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, and knelt down in front of the third brother, begging: "Third brother, we are brothers, you can't watch us have no books to read!"

No matter how much he hates, he is also a brother, and the pressure of his brother kneeling in front of him made Li Jiadao, who was still young, unable to bear it, jumped up from the chair, and looked at his father helplessly, but he could only see his old tears.

Li Jiade, who was sitting next to him, looked at his brother's such nature, and his eyes flashed that he fell into the icy river, and it was the same young third brother who jumped into the water to pull him.

"Brute!"

Li Jiade, who was usually quiet and gentle, finally got angry, and slapped his eldest brother in the face, so that the study suddenly became dead silent.

After a long time, Li Jiade, who was in tears, stood up, let the tears flow, looked at the Li Jiaren brothers who were kneeling on the ground, and said slowly: "Big brother, second brother, I will call you brother for the last time." I now know why Jiaming beat you and why he slashed Mom's knife. If you don't treat the third brother as a brother, how can we make us treat you as a brother?

Forget it, for the sake of the same father and mother, I will help you beg someone. However, you must remember that man always has to rely on himself, and if he does not fight again, do not come to Yaye again. Yaye has raised you to the age of eighteen, and for you eleven years of study, and has fulfilled the duty of being a father."

Brothers are of the same heart, for Li Jiadao, it does not refer to the eldest and second brothers, but his fourth brother. As soon as he heard his younger brother say this, Li Jiadao ignored the eldest brother and second brother who were begging on the ground, and hurriedly stopped: "Jiade, don't be confused! Where can you borrow it, and where can you borrow it? Teacher Jiang, no matter how much they value you, they will only help you when you are having difficulty in studying, and it is impossible to help them!"

"I know, I know where I can borrow", the smart Li Jiade looked at his father and sighed secretly. There are parents all over the world, and the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat.

The lonely Li Jiade walked to the hanging tower and picked up an old umbrella, and the anxious Li Jiadao suddenly realized, and hurriedly ran over to grab him, and said eagerly: "Jiade, are you crazy?"

Li Jiade glanced at the two ugly brothers in the study, and said gloomily: "Third brother, blood is thicker than water after all, I am not so hard-hearted, and it is impossible to watch Ye Ye be humiliated." ”

After being silent for a while, Li Jiadao, who was also gloomy, finally let go of his hand and watched his younger brother's thin back disappear into the dark rainy night.

……………………………

Li Jiaming's study is very warm, after the Lantern Festival, the military is going back to Guangdong, and the big dog also wants to follow, they are brothers who have played since childhood, and they specially ran to him to say goodbye.

"Hey, hey, hey, no, I'm going to tell Uncle Chuanmeng! You tell me, and I'll know. You are patting your ass and running, if Uncle Chuan Meng knows, he will definitely scold me, how can there be such a good thing in the world?"

If it was to be replaced, the big dog could press Li Jiaming to the ground and beat him hard, and then beat him down first. He came to say goodbye with good intentions, and he was still pinched? But now he doesn't dare, he still has to beg this cousin with kind words, who made that knife too ruthless.

"Jiaming, Brother Jiaming, I beg you, I am kind enough to tell you, you can't hurt your brother like this!

What are these words? The soldier next to him is also hehehe, and his eldest brother is too sincere, and he can't even see that Jiaming is teasing him. Seeing that his eldest brother was also laughing, the big dog said angrily: "Big brother, can you help?"

"Hehe, Jiaming, tease you, play. You're still, really, really?"

"Really?"

The big dog who cared about the chaos, saw Li Jiaming laughing, and smashed his arm angrily, scolding: "Isn't it fun?"

"It's fun!"

This fist is a bit heavy, but Li Jiaming laughed even harder, the brother who has been estranged for a few days, isn't it still a brother? This is called breaking bones and connecting tendons, and brothers are always brothers.

Li Jiaming was about to make a few more jokes, when there was a sudden 'squeak' door push sound downstairs, followed by footsteps going upstairs. Hearing the familiar footsteps, Li Jiaming lost the mind to laugh, and said, "Brother Jun, I don't approve of the big dog going with you." He was only sixteen years old, and he couldn't even enter the factory. I've heard from the fourth uncle before, and I know how you learned to drive, it's too dangerous!"

The big dog was anxious when he heard it, but the military man was also upright, and tried to slow down his voice and said: "I, too, yes, said it, and told him that he is not old, enough." But he didn't want to, he pestered me, and I couldn't help it! I thought about this, like this, take him over first, and go to work in the factory. Anyway, he's so, tall, and it should be fine. After two years, my eldest sister and I have saved enough money, and he is also of age, and then send him to a driving school. ”

That's it, Li Jiaming also said to the big dog: "Big dog, you go and tell Uncle Chuanmeng that he will agree to enter the factory with Brother Junling." If something happens, not only will you die, but you will also be killed! Besides, you have to be 18 years old to get a driver's license, and you are only 16 years old, and no one will invite you if you learn to drive. ”

"Really, isn't my eldest brother under the age of eighteen, and he doesn't still have a driver's license?"

At this time, Li Jiade had already walked to the hanging tower and was putting an umbrella, Li Jiaming hurriedly got up and opened the door, nodded and said: "Really, Brother Jun, who turned eighteen years old in November of the previous year, took the driver's license test in December! If you think we are lying to you, when you arrive in Guangdong, you can find someone to ask you and understand, the driver's license test is not to enter the factory, you just go and fake an ID card." ”

The military who was about to echo saw Li Jiade coming in, and immediately got up and wanted to leave, but just stood up and sat down again. Although he stammered, his brain was not stupid, and when Si Yan came at this time, he must have come to borrow money from Jiaming. Uncle Chuanmin's money is in the hands of Aunt Shimei, she will definitely not borrow it, and the grandmother's family has borrowed it so many times, and she will definitely not be able to borrow it, where else can he come if he doesn't come here? Hmph, in this house, that is, Jiaming may still help Si Yan for the sake of face, which of the other uncles will help them?

Li Jiade, who was red-faced and swollen, watched his cousin, who he had just regarded as an enemy, give up his seat and help him make tea, but he didn't know how to speak for a while. He came out of disappointment and grief for his brother, and only then did he realize that some things were really not so easy to talk about.

With a buffer of a few days, Li Jiaming's anger in his heart has long calmed down, how can an adult in his thirties be as familiar as two teenage hairy children and ignorant village women? Even if these two hairy children will have a big future in the future, it will be a matter of the future, and it may not be who will ask for whom in the future?

Li Jiaming picked up the old boiling water bottle on the windowsill, made a cup of hot tea and served it to the fourth brother, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, I know your intentions, you'd better avoid opening your mouth." The country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, and some people can't help it. ”

Li Jiade blushed and said with difficulty: "I'm not as hard-hearted as you!"

Looking at the precocious fourth brother, Li Jiaming suddenly sympathized with him very much, and the little thing in the uncle's family could guess a few points without asking himself. The uncle, who was used to scheming, listened to the words that he regarded the fourth brother as his own brother, so he thought about using that matter to pressure himself, and nine times out of ten he played a bitter trick to force this filial son to intercede.

After a little hesitation, Li Jiaming decisively planted a thorn in the uncle, and said in a deep voice: "Fourth brother, you are smarter than me, you can definitely think of things that I can think of, are you sure you want to do this? ”

Li Jiade was silent, just staring at Li Jiaming's eyes.

Hey, this smart person is too difficult to deal with, Li Jiaming smiled bitterly to himself, and admitted: "Fourth brother, no matter what you say, you are also my brother." Now that you have opened your mouth, I will have to do it. The ugly words are ahead, I sent me 1,000 yuan, and now there is only 700 left, and I can't do anything more. The second uncle's money belongs to the second uncle, and I can't open that mouth for other people's business!"

"Thank you".

Li Jiade picked up the old Parker gold pen on the table, typed an IOU on a clean piece of scratch paper and handed it over, Li Jiaming glanced at it playfully, and threw it into the burning brazier, which turned into a cloud of ashes in an instant.

"Fourth brother, if you use this money for your own study, you will treat it as a younger brother to help your brother, and if you have it, you will pay it back, and you will not forget it. But this money is not for your own use, and it is not for the third brother to use it, then the slip you made is useless, let the eldest and second men come over by themselves!"

Li Jiade was silent again, and Li Jiaming also continued to smile and said: "Fourth brother, I have clear grievances, I beat them, and the matter is over." Borrowing money is another matter, my own brothers still have to settle accounts, not to mention that I am no longer brothers with them. If you want to borrow, then ask them to come over themselves, according to the current prices, plus bank interest. ”

Hearing Li Jiaming say this, he praised his cousin's benevolence and righteousness, and at the same time, he said: "Four guys, what Jiaming said is reasonable." If you and Sanhan don't have money to study, don't say that he will help, even our cousins will help, who calls us to share the same surname is their own people. As for the two beasts, Da Yan and Er, don't even think about such a good thing, if you don't open your mouth, it's useless for you to say yes!"

In front of the eldest sister and Li Jiaming, he can still argue with 'parents who are all in the world', but in front of others like the big dog, what reason can he find to comfort himself? These cousins are not ignorant of brotherly love and the righteousness of the same clan, they don't regard their parents and the eldest and second as relatives at all, and they are not even clansmen!

A few minutes later, Li Jiade came with the frightened and eager Li Jiaren brothers, but Li Jiaming was not there. After waiting for more than ten minutes, they saw Li Jiaming who came back with a wad of money in his hand, and then saw the loan agreement he wrote on the spot in block letters, and then they knew what it meant to be leaky.

God knows, how could a thirteen-year-old boy draft an agreement that high school students wouldn't know?

"That night, I said in front of my uncle, there are four brothers in your family, and I only regard the third brother and the fourth brother as brothers. Today, for the sake of the fourth brother, I borrowed the money. Since it's borrowing money, then follow the rules, I can't lose myself for you.

I'm a fair man, and instead of the highest interest rate allowed by law, which is four times the bank's interest rate, I will calculate it at the current loan rate. At present, the bank loan interest rate is 8% per month, so we will calculate it at 8%. Considering that you may not be able to repay the money for several years, the monthly interest must also be calculated as a loan at 8% interest, which is the interest rate mentioned in the book.

The law prohibits rolling profits, so we have to sign at least seven agreements, and you will pay back the money according to that year.

Also, there must be a difference between the current price and the price in the future, the current price of rice is 7 cents and 2 cents a catty, and 700 yuan can buy 972 catties of rice. When you repay the money, the base number will also be calculated according to 972 catties of rice.

You have figured it out, to borrow or not to borrow!"

The two of them made a silent calculation, plus next year's tutoring and four years of college, it would be five and a half years at most, and the profit would be only a little more than two times and less than three times. If you really can't pass the exam for a year of tutoring, you will accept your fate, and you won't have to worry about going out to work.

"Let's borrow!"

This time, Da Yan and Er Yan lost their previous pride, and like two dogs with broken backbones, they honestly signed seven loan agreements.

Li Jiaming took the seven loan agreements, took out the 700 yuan he had just asked from his second aunt and handed them over, and sneered in his heart.

Lao Tzu really doesn't attach as much importance to love and righteousness as Brother Jun and Big Dog think, and give the fourth brother a face, but his father will have to live the rest of his life here in the future, and he can't do without mutual watch with his uncles. I slashed my aunt, although I was too ruthless, it was inevitable that people would criticize it in private in the future, and I had to do something to make everyone praise one or two.

However, Lao Tzu is still very fair, and he will not let you get cheap, and he will not let you get cheap!

The price of rice is now undervalued, and as soon as the market is opened, the price immediately rises. It will rise to at least 1 yuan 3 next year, so that your father will get back the tea money you have given you for so many years. Of course, if you can really pass the test, and wait until five or six years later, when you will pay it back when you have 1 catty of rice and 1 piece of 7 or 8, then you can only say that you are lucky, and Lao Tzu has fallen into blood mold. Lao Tzu is not one of those people who have money to deposit in the bank, as long as Lao Tzu is eighteen years old and meets the standards of legal adults, the 700 yuan in Lao Tzu's hands will not be doubled several times a year, it is simply sorry for his identity as a reborn person!
