"Virtuous? Why don't you two come up and sit down? ”

Qin Xuedong didn't notice the strange expression on Qin Youde's face, and lifted the lively crucian carp, "You guys are blessed, I'm about to make crucian carp stewed tofu, stay and have a meal together at noon." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"No need, big brother, I'm cooking at home." Qin Youde laughed twice, "Hongmei and I happened to pass by, so I thought about coming to give it."

You pay homage to the early years. ”

"It's all my own family, so I don't need to be so polite."

Old Man Qin passed away early, and the Qin family was left with two brothers, Qin Xuedong and Qin Youde, to support each other. The Qin family used to be a scholarly family, Qin Xuedong liked to read since he was a child, and after the end of the ten-year catastrophe, the country resumed the college entrance examination, and he was the first batch of students to be admitted to Yenching University.

At that time, everyone thought that Qin Xuedong would choose to stay in school to teach and take root in Yanjing. Unexpectedly, as soon as he graduated from college, he gave up the opportunity to stay in school, returned to Jiaocheng and married Qin Fan's mother, and became an ordinary middle school teacher.

As for Qin Fan's mother, the Qin family only knows that she was originally from Yanjing, and she was a classmate of Yenching University with Qin Xuedong. As for her family background, no one knows.

However, since Qin Fan's mother married Qin Xuedong, she has not returned to Yanjing, and no one has seen her mother's family. Qin Fan had never heard her mention it.

"What's that, I'll leave first if I have something to do."

Qin Youde was about to run away, Shen Hongmei reached out and twisted the soft flesh on his waist, and said with some complaints, "I haven't asked anything yet, what are you going to go?" ”

"If you want to ask, I can't ask." Qin Youde blushed and snorted twice from his nostrils.

"Look at you."

Shen Hongmei glanced at him, and immediately changed to a smiling face, "Big brother, our family really can't open the pot this year." You see it's almost the New Year, and the 20,000 yuan ...... When will it be? ”

Hearing Shen Hongmei's words, Qin Xuedong immediately figured out why Qin Youde was so embarrassed, it turned out that Shen Hongmei pulled him to collect debts.

About half a year ago, Qin Fan's mother had a serious illness.

At that time, the school was in financial difficulties, and Qin Xuedong's salary was owed for several months, and in order to treat the disease, Qin Fan's family was almost exhausted.

Later, Qin Youde carried Shen Hongmei behind his back and secretly took 20,000 yuan from his family to lend it to Qin Fan's family, and Shen Hongmei quarreled with Qin Youde a lot for this matter, and recently he has been urging him to collect debts from Qin Xuedong every day.

"Brother and sister, you see that the school's bonus this year has not yet been paid, and I will return it to you as soon as the bonus is sent."

Qin Xuedong didn't want his younger brother to have a conflict with his brother-in-law, but at the end of the year, the expenses were large, and their family really didn't have any surplus.

"Big brother, it's not that my younger brother and sister are unkind, Xiaoyan will go to high school next year, and I don't know where the tuition fee is, so I really can't help it."

"Don't worry, let's go upstairs and say something, don't worry, I will definitely return the money to you."

Qin Xuedong is the kind of traditional intellectual, thin-skinned, and it is really embarrassing and embarrassing to be blocked downstairs by others to collect debts.

But Shen Hongmei was unforgiving, her mouth was like a machine gun, and she complained, "Big brother, I didn't say it." Your salary and bonus add up to a few thousand yuan, and you will earn 20,000 yuan until the Year of the Monkey. ”

"I heard Youde say that the old man left a few broken books, and someone offered 50,000 yuan last year. In my opinion, if you sell those few broken books, won't you have money? ”

Hearing this, Qin Xuedong's face changed suddenly.

"No, those books are relics left by my father, and they must not be sold."

Old Man Qin loved books all his life, and he also collected many rare books, but most of the ancient books were burned in the ten years of catastrophe, leaving only a small part.

Qin Xuedong also couldn't put down these ancient books left by the old man, and once an antique dealer offered 50,000 yuan to buy all the books in the Qin family, but Qin Xuedong refused.

It turned out that Shen Hongmei was playing the idea of these ancient books.

"Big brother, it's not right for you to say that. These books were left by the old man, and they also have a share in learning, right? I think it's better to sell the book, and the money will be split in half, what do you think? ”

In Shen Hongmei's eyes, these broken books can't be eaten, so it's better to sell them for money, and add a few household appliances to the house.

"No, anything can be discussed, but this is not negotiable. These books are the treasures of the Qin family, and they must not be sold! Qin Xuedong's face turned pale, but his tone was extremely resolute.

Seeing that Qin Xuedong was so resolute, Shen Hongmei was also a little anxious, "Anyway, those few broken books also have a share." Big brother, if you don't want to sell it, you can take out 50,000 yuan, and I'll turn around and leave. ”

"Enough!"

Seeing that Shen Hongmei was talking more and more, Qin Youde couldn't help it, "Those books were left by the old man to the eldest brother, I can't divide them, you can go home with me now!" ”

"No, I won't go back if I don't see the money today."

At the beginning, Qin Youde lent out the family's money without telling her, and she was holding back her anger, but now when Qin Youde yelled at her, it was like igniting a powder keg, and it exploded immediately.

Just when the two were arguing, a figure appeared in the community.

"Dad!"

Qin Fan saw Qin Xuedong downstairs from afar, and when he thought of his father, who had worked hard for half his life in his previous life and finally died depressed, a strong emotion came to his heart, and his eyes turned red all of a sudden.

"Xiaofan is back."

Seeing Qin Fan come back, Qin Xuedong's face suddenly turned cloudy, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face.

"Second uncle, you're here too?" Qin Fan saw that Qin Xuede's face was red, and he didn't know what was going on, so he greeted him with a smile.

"Xiaofan, it's been a long time since I've seen you grow so big." Qin Youde smiled and patted Qin Fan's shoulder.

"Xiaofan, you go up first, I still have something to say to your second uncle"

"No need, big brother, let's go." Qin Youde didn't want to make any more trouble, so people saw the joke and hurriedly said.

"What to go." Shen Hongmei glared at him, "I won't leave if I don't see the money today." ”

Seeing this scene, Qin Fan immediately recalled the cause and effect, and his face suddenly sank.

Shen Hongmei is a bit snobbish, she doesn't look down on Qin Fan's family, and thinks that Qin Xuedong is a poor scholar. If it were a weekday, Qin Youde would have endured her stinky temper, but today Shen Hongmei was really a little too much.

"Big brother, don't blame your younger brothers and sisters for being hard-hearted, if you can't pay back the 20,000 yuan, just use those broken books to pay off the debt."

Qin Xuedong naturally refused to take the book to pay off the debt, according to Shen Hongmei's greedy character, I am afraid that as soon as the book arrives, she will sell it.

Qin Fan looked at his father's embarrassed and embarrassed expression, and couldn't help but be angry in his heart.

He swore that he would never let his parents suffer any more grievances in this life.

"Second aunt, I can pay you back 20,000 yuan, but you have to promise not to fight those ancient books from now on." Qin Fan said coldly. He knew that the rare books left by the old man were Qin Xuedong's lifeblood, and he was reluctant to sell them no matter how difficult the family was.

Hearing Qin Fan's words, Shen Hongmei and Qin Xuedong were stunned for a moment.

"You want to pay it back? That's 20,000 dollars, not 200. How much money can you earn by doing odd jobs outside? Shen Hongmei thought that Qin Fan was just talking angrily, and said sarcastically.

"You don't have to worry about this, I'll ask you if you agree."

Shen Hongmei forced Qin Xuedong to this position for a mere 20,000 yuan, since she didn't talk about relatives, Qin Fan didn't need to be polite to her.

"Okay, as long as you can get 20,000 yuan, I won't mention those broken books in the future." Shen Hongmei squinted her eyes and said coldly. Even if she is killed, she doesn't believe it, Qin Fan can get 20,000 yuan from a small hairy child.

"Hongmei, Xiaofan, he's joking, don't be like a child." Qin Xuedong hurriedly said, "I'll find a way to return the money to you." ”

"Dad, I'm not kidding."

In Shen Hongmei's surprised gaze, Qin Fan took off the backpack he was carrying, pulled open his mouth with a bang, and took out two bundles of thick banknotes from it and stuffed them into Qin Youde's hands.

"Second uncle, you have 20,000 yuan."

At the moment when Qin Fan took out two bundles of banknotes, Qin Youde and Shen Hongmei were stunned for a moment, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

"This, this ......"

Qin Youde held the heavy banknotes in both hands, and his palms trembled a little.

He and Shen Hongmei saw very clearly just now that Qin Fan's backpack was full of bundles of banknotes, and there were more than a dozen bundles of bills, that is, more than 100,000 yuan!

In this era, more than 100,000 yuan can buy a 60-square-meter house in Jiaocheng, and more than 100,000 yuan is undoubtedly a huge amount of money.

Shen Hongmei didn't expect Qin Fan to come up with such a large sum of money, the original sarcastic expression on her face disappeared in an instant, she squeezed out an embarrassed smile, and asked with a dry smile, "Xiaofan, you earned all this money?" ”

Didn't it mean that Qin Fan couldn't make much money doing odd jobs in the southern Shenzhen market, how did he earn so much money?

Qin Youde and Shen Hongmei are both employees of state-owned enterprises, and their salaries are good, but they only have more than 30,000 yuan a year, and the 180,000 yuan in Qin Fan's hands is equivalent to their income for six years, and they can only save it without eating or drinking.

Seeing that Qin Fan's family, who had always been looked down upon by themselves, actually took out such a huge sum of money all at once, how could Shen Hongmei not be shocked.

Before they came back to their senses, Qin Fan suddenly pulled up his backpack, "The second uncle and second aunt have all the money here, you can order it." ”

"No need to order, I still can't believe Xiaofan. I'm sorry, big brother, it's all my fault today, come to my house for dinner another day, and I'll let Youde cook a few more dishes. ”

Shen Hongmei is in charge of finance, dealing with banknotes every day, and she knows 20,000 yuan with her hand, which is a lot.

"Enough trouble, why don't you go back quickly, so as not to stay here and be embarrassed." Qin Youde was also ashamed and angry when he saw Shen Hongmei's appearance of being condescending and respectful, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
