Chapter 81: Usury (1st Update)

Xia Zidong frowned, then soothed again, and said:

"Dad, what's the matter, third brother, is it really not good? The third brother knows a lot of businessmen, what's the matter, you can also borrow some, this borrowing money is better than borrowing usury, and our family is like this, usury really can't afford it! ”

Xia Zidong said, his mind was somewhat cloudy, Old Man Xia would actually let him take on debts, is this Old Man Xia, and looking at Xia Zidong, Old Man Xia spit out smoke.

"Zidong, don't always count on your third brother, although your third brother is not compatible with the family over the years, but he is also your own brother, your third brother also has his own family, when he separates from the family, it is similar to leaving the house, and over the years, you don't know how much your third brother has suffered at home, your third brother is only twenty-seven now, and he will marry again in the future, and he still has his own children to raise, this Xue Ge will marry someone in the future, and the dowry is indispensable! Although your third brother knows a lot of businessmen, but Zidong, do you know how many years your third brother hasn't been in contact with them? ”

Old Man Xia asked, Xia Zidong was stunned, Old Man Xia not only wanted him to take on debts, but he actually spoke to Xia Ziqiu, this is too outrageous, what did Xia Ziqiu say to Old Man Xia?

"Dad, I know, it's the son who is not good, but ...... If I am in debt, it will have an impact on my career in the future! ”

"Oh, so you mean, you still need this money, but you don't go into debt?"

Old Man Xia asked, Xia Zidong was a little annoyed in his heart, didn't he understand what he meant, what was going on with Old Man Xia today!

"Dad, I didn't mean that, I just ......"

"Zidong, Dad didn't plan to let you go into debt at all. But you're like this, Dad is disappointed, Boss......"

"Dad, I don't carry it, give the money to the old five. Why do you want me to carry this loan shark, and our family hasn't split up yet, if you want to carry it together, Dad, I'm still annoyed by what happened last time, Mei'er probably won't be able to marry in this life. In this family, we can't have an old girl in our family, so we will go to stay in the nunnery in the future, Dad, what are you talking about. You shouldn't let me be in debt, let's say it's nice, last time Mei'er went to Chongxi, and it didn't sound good, Dad, those five hundred taels are the money from selling the child, Lao Wu, you're really embarrassed! ”

"Big brother...... I ......"

"You what you. Old Five, if it weren't for my tireless work to make money, what do you think you can do now? You're just digging in the ground! ”

Xia Zichun said. Old man Xia looked at this family, Liang wanted to speak several times but was stopped by him with his eyes, and suddenly a chill welled up in his heart, Xia Ziqiu's words sounded in his ears again, Xia Zidong ...... It really needs to be educated.

"Alright, don't talk about it. This usury is no longer borrowing, but I have called you to-day. I just want to see your attitude, Zidong. Any idea why I said you? In order to send you to study, the family rushed to your third brother to take the loan shark debt, you were five years old at that time, don't tell me you forgot, your third brother didn't pay it later, and the family didn't have so much silver, in fact, there was it at home at that time, but your mother didn't want to go out, how much money did the family make, and how much it spent, I have a number in my heart, which of you has roughly how much private money in your hands, I can also guess a * not far from ten, I was also angry back then, I didn't care about your mother doing this, but then your third brother's leg was discounted, I regretted it at that time, your third brother was two years older than you now. ”

"Looking at your third brother and telling me, I gave birth to her, it is a retribution, do you know how distressed my father was at that time, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, even if your third brother is not good, he is also my son, since then, I have sworn that our family will not borrow usury."

"Your third brother can't take it out there, I told your third brother for you, let him sell the shop to make money, but your third brother told me something heart-wrenching, I changed my mind, studying there is not studying, if the Guozijian is really like what you said, this is equivalent to becoming an official, then how many unconscious officials do we have in the court? Zidong, what my father hopes is that you will be a good official who will be famous for the ages, hasn't the county school already registered for you, you should review and prepare for the exam, your third brother, forget it, it's not just for you, all of you listen to me, the third child is rich, that's the third child's business, and no one is allowed to give me the idea of beating the third child in the future! ”

After Old Man Xia finished speaking, he took a puff of cigarette and waved his hand.

"Okay, let's all go back to their respective houses, damn, you stay, I have something to ask you!"

Old Man Xia said, Liang's heart suddenly slipped up, Old Man Xia's words today were like a bolt from the blue to her, she never thought that Old Man Xia would be such a refined person, looking at Old Man Xia, Liang couldn't help but get tired of spitting.

Everyone left, and Old Man Xia opened his mouth.

"child, tell me, how did the Hua family get involved......

"This ...... Didn't you know! ”

Liang said, his heart jumped, Old Man Xia glanced at her, and still felt in his heart that it was over, there are some things, just go over, but there is one sentence, I still have to say.

"Okay, what's going on with that incident, I don't want to pursue it, you and Zidong are good at your own, and, sometimes, teach Zidong well, this kid, you have already taught him crookedly, don't think about it over there, there are several people in this county who are sent to Guozijian, and there is no Zidong, which means that Zidong is not qualified to go there, let's not force it."

After saying that, Old Man Xia continued to smoke, and Liang left.

Old man Xia seemed to be hit hard, he felt a cold in the afternoon, Xia Ziqiu was at home, and he was also upset for a day because of this matter.

"Dad, don't worry about it, okay, I think grandpa will understand, didn't you say that grandpa is the kind of person who is old and mature? Grandpa won't be unreasonable, Dad, maybe Grandpa was just lost for a while, but now, I think what you said, Grandpa should find the right way. ”

Xia Xuege said, this is the New Year, this kind of thing is the most annoying. And Xia Ziqiu touched Xia Xuege's head, and he was also melancholy in his heart.

"Your grandfather is afraid that he won't live long, so he is getting more and more anxious, and he is like this, alas, people, hehe, by the way, Xue Ge, clean up, let's go see your grandfather tomorrow......"

"Dad, I don't think so."

"Huh? Why. ”

"Because grandpa is already here, you see!"

Xia Xuege said, pointing to the courtyard, Xia Ziqiu looked through the window paper that was not very transparent, isn't it, Zhang Yujiang is supporting an old man with two children behind him.

"Father-in-law, why are you here in this cold winter, sit in the house!"

Xia Ziqiu went out and won, Old Man Zhang is much older than Old Man Xia, he is seventy years old, although his body is very tough, but Brother Zhang Yujiang does not dare to let the old man be too active.

"Why did I come, you kid, I haven't run away for a few years, I don't talk as before, I'm here to see my granddaughter, Xue Ge, come and let my grandfather see!"

Old Man Zhang scolded with a smile, and saw that Xia Xuege directly took off Zhang Yujiang's support and reported Xia Xuege.

"Xue Ge is really good, Ziqiu, like you, but better looking than you, our Xue Ge will definitely be a noble life in the future!"

"Grandpa, I don't want to be a nobleman, I just want to find someone who likes me wholeheartedly, and the nobleman wants to share her husband with other women, so I don't want it!"

Xia Xuege said with a smile, the ancients were precocious, although ordinary children would be shy and difficult to talk about such words, but Xia Xuege didn't think there was anything, and after hearing Xia Xuege say this, Old Man Zhang smiled even more happily.

"Okay, our Xue Ge is smart, when we grow up, let's find someone who only marries our Xue Ge, if he dares to take a concubine, see if his grandfather doesn't clean him up!"

Saying that, a group of people had happily entered the house, and looking at the two children who followed, Xia Xuege knew that one was Zhang Yuhai, the old son of Old Man Zhang, and the other was Zhang Ning, the son of Zhang Yujiang.

"Ziqiu, how are you doing?"

Old man Zhang said that he felt guilty about this son-in-law.

"Okay, I opened a new dim sum shop, the business is very good, Xue Ge, this kid is also sensible, Xue Ge, go and bring up the dim sum or something, and those fireworks in your house or something, go out with your little uncle!"

Xia Ziqiu said, Xia Xuege nodded, no way, the relationship between this Weng and his son-in-law is really not like that of ordinary people.

After taking the fireworks, Xia Xuege was led by Zhang Yuhai to the open space in the village, and in winter, many children dismantled the firecrackers one by one and set off them there.

Zhang Yuhai and Zhang Ning are both thirteen this year, and fourteen this year, Zhang Ning's nephew is a month older than Zhang Yuhai, probably growing up together, and the two are more like brothers!

When they arrived at the open space, Xiao Shi was playing with Liuzi there, and when he saw Xia Xuege coming, and the other children came over.

"Xue Ge, did you bring fireworks again, let me tell you something, can you give me a few?"

Xiao Shi smiled, Xiao Liuzi is different, Xiao Liuzi is Yu Qingzi's youngest son, although his father has recovered from illness these days, but he is only five years old, and he doesn't understand many things.

"Sister Xue Ge, I'll tell you something too, can you give me fireworks too?"

"Oh, little Liuzi, what I want to say is different from what you say, what I want to say is a secret!"

"Secret? But I don't have a secret, so can't I change the fireworks......"

Saying that, Xiao Liuzi was very disappointed, Xia Xuege took out a small handful of fireworks from her bag and gave it to Xiao Liuzi.

"Little Liuzi, you take it, uncle, I have something to say to Xiao Shi, can you take Xiao Liuzi over there to play first? He's small, and I'm afraid he'll hurt himself. (To be continued) R655
