After eating, Zhang Yulian was still cleaning up, and she remembered the voice outside the courtyard gate: "Brother Jianghai, I heard that your Xiaoyu is back, I'll come and take a look!" ”
"It's Dafeng, come in!" , the villagers, as soon as you hear the voice, you know who it is.
"Hehe, there are distinguished guests. This is the little fisherman's girlfriend, I saw it all in the afternoon, you two are holding hands. It's so handsome, Xiaoyu is really blessed! As soon as Dafeng came in, he saw Zhou Yu and Ling Xiaoxiao sitting there without speaking, and immediately opened his mouth with a smile.
"Come, sit down." , Father Zhou took another cup and poured tea. Zhou Yu shouted Uncle Feng, and it was over.
What Dafeng came in to do, everyone knew it, but he seemed embarrassed to speak, one went around. Just as he plucked up the courage to speak, a few more people came outside. They're all here to ask for money! It's time to catch up.
"I know what you came for, my father and mother were very ill back then, thanks to the brothers. Although it is not much, at least you have reached out, here, I Zhou Jianghai is grateful. After speaking, Zhou Jianghai looked at everyone.
"Brother Jiang Hai, we also heard in the afternoon that my sister-in-law returned the money of Zhou Tong's family, so come and see, don't take it to heart. This, that, if there is, just a little more, it's not easy for everyone. ", said a villager with a face similar to Fan Wei.
"I was going to deliver it to your house in person tomorrow, but since everyone is here. Then I'll pay you back. Xiaoyu, take out the money! Zhou Jianghai said to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu got up, went to the bedroom and took out 100,000 yuan from his travel bag!
When the villagers saw the big stack of red Grandpa Mao on the table, their breathing began to become heavier, and they couldn't take their eyes off anymore!
Eight thousand, five thousand, three thousand! When their money was returned, there were still more than 60,000 on the table!
Soon, the few people who got the money left with a smile.
"What are you doing with all that?" , Zhou Jianghai asked reproachfully.
"I want to see how many more will be eager to collect their debts!" , Zhou Yu said lightly.
"Hee-hee," Ling Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and smiled, she had already guessed what he was trying to do.
After eating, everyone sat in the hall and chatted while watching TV. It was mainly Zhou Jianghai who was talking about the production team decades ago.
"At that time, it was hard, I worked hard during the day, and I couldn't eat enough. At the end of the year, the earned wages can only be exchanged for some rations, not even enough for half a year. It's not warm to wear, and there's not much oil all year round, let alone meat! Recalling the bitterness, Zhou Jianghai was embarrassed.
"How did you get over that year?" It was hard for Ling Xiaoxiao to imagine how people at that time could resist hunger and cold.
"Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water! At that time, as soon as we got off work, we went into the mountains in groups of three or five to look for wild fruits and hunt for prey. If you are lucky enough to hunt a wild boar, save a little, which is enough for more than 100 people in our village to eat half a month's full meal! Zhou Jianghai remembered the scene of sneaking up the mountain to hunt at that time, and he still remembers it vividly.
"What about wintering? It's cold! Ling Xiaoxiao knew about this, and her grandfather also told her that what they were looking forward to most at that time was to have a warm winter. If it snows in that area, it will be a disaster.
"I remember in '77, when I was young. One night, the temperature suddenly warmed up. I was happy, but my father and mother were worried. Sure enough, on the third day, the whole world was snow-white! In just one night, there were dozens of centimeters of snow. For this reason, my parents wrapped me in the only padded jacket. The mother made a brazier at home, while the father, that is, the grandfather of the little fisherman, and a dozen young people in the village went into the mountains to hunt. There is almost no food at home, and they plan to go in two days. Just this time, Xiaoyu's grandfather fell ill and survived until he died! After saying these words, Zhou Jianghai seemed to see his father ache and feel unbearable as soon as he arrived in winter, and he kept coughing, and that sound made his heart torment like purgatory! It's a pity that the family is not good, and the old man can't leave with peace of mind until he leaves.
Ling Xiaoxiao's eyes were slightly red, and she grabbed Zhou Yu's hand very hard. Zhou Yu looked at her, picked up a handkerchief from her, and gently wiped her tears that were about to roll down.
"It's okay, this is all the old life, isn't it good now." , Zhou Yu comforted her with a smile.
"You too, it's not good to say anything, you have to talk about these things that are old sesame seeds and rotten grains." , Zhang Yulian glared at Father Zhou, and couldn't help but pull Ling Xiaoxiao away in distress, and went to sit next to him to comfort her.
"Is Brother Jiang Hai at home?" , Zhou Yu was just thinking about whether someone would come again, but he didn't expect a voice to come in a blink of an eye.
"It's Brother Benxiang, come in. At home! Zhou Jianghai got up and brought a chair. After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes with a dark face came in from outside the door.
"Hehe, it's all here. These two are distinguished guests, right? Xiao Yu hasn't seen him for a year, not only is he taller, but he is also more handsome. Zhou Benxiang's speech is very incommensurate with his honest appearance.
"Uncle Benxiang praised him, how can he compare to Sister Yue Lin. I heard that you are about to graduate? Still doing an internship at a foreign company? Zhou Yu heard his father mention this sister of the family, a very powerful person.
"How can I compare with you, when you come out, you will be an official." , After Zhou Benxiang sat down, he talked with a few people, as if he was embarrassed to speak like Dafeng. Zhou Yu knew the purpose of his coming, but his father didn't say it, and he didn't want to mention it.
"Brother Benxiang, I know the purpose of your visit. I borrowed your money and haven't paid it back for so many years, so I'm sorry. Xiaoyu, take 10,000 out! Zhou Yu's father looked at Zhou Benxiang's embarrassed look, so he simply said it himself. Over the years, Zhou Benxiang has been very good, and he has never come to ask for it.
"Not so much, it's nine thousand nine hundred!" , Zhou Benxiang was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and his face turned red, but he couldn't see it on his dark face. Although he didn't earn much this year, his daughter's tuition fees had already been paid, which was just an excuse. Look at Zhou Yu, he needs a lot of money, and the capital is not as good as a provincial university.
Zhou Yu took a wad of money and gave it to his father, who handed it to Zhou Benxiang. But what everyone didn't expect was that Zhou Benxiang took out five and put them on the table. "Brother Jiang Hai, I really didn't mean to come to your house today. It's my mother-in-law who wants to die or live, and for this, my daughter also had a quarrel with her mother. These five hundred, one hundred is extra, four hundred is when Xiaoyu was admitted to university, I didn't send a red envelope, it can be regarded as making up one! That's it, you talk! I'll go first! After speaking, Zhou Benxiang put away the money and left quickly.
